Only the Communist Party, the
N. Y. State United Front Conmun-
ist Election Campaign Committee de-
clares in statement issued yester-
day, has appealed directly to. work
ing class organizations to send dele
gates to a mayoralty conference.
Packing Madison Square Garden
Thursday night with its ward poll
ticians. Tammany nominated one of
its faithful tools, John P. O'Brien
as its candidate for Mayor of New
York City.
"Tammany is prepared to wage a
broad campaign for misleading the
workers of New York City" the Uni
ted Front Communist Election Cam
paign Committee says. ION the
other hand, the Socialists have call
ed in Daniel w. Hoan, Mayor of
Milwaukee at whose order police
dubbed unemployed workers de-
nnanding relief, to help elect Morris
Hillquit, bitter enemy of the Soviet
Union and of the American working
class, the Socialist nominee for
Mayor"
The Committee further points out
that Norman Thomas, evidently
knowing that Hiliquit would serve
capitalism as faithfully as any De-
mocrat or Republican, has urged
Tanmany, the Republican and So
cialist Party to unite on Hil1quit as
a fusion" candidate for Mayor.
Thomas was not mistaken in
urging upon Tamrnany to favor Hill
quit" the United Front Committee
declared. Hillquit, if elected, will
suppress the workers struggles a.
gainst, capitalist misery with brutal
force just as his fellow Socialist,
Hoan, has done in Milwaukee, and
the Tammany and Republican tools
in the. cities they rule
"Of the candidates for Mayor of
New York City, William l.. Patter-
son, Communist candidate is the
only one who has participated in the
struggles of workers against capt.
alist misery" the United Front Com
mittee stated. A large vote for Pat
terSon, the Committee added, will
show the capitalist class that the
workers are united under powerful
and militant leadership in their fight
for relief in this crisis.

the Walter w. Waters group which

power to sabotage the preparations

Grams stormed the doors of the B.
E. F. convention here shouting de-
fiance at the guards.
More than at any time before 1t
has now become evident that the
capitalists and bankers are preparing
to oppose in every possible manner
the mass movement of the veterans
for their back wages. It is the policy
of the bonus enemies to support the
Waters leadership against the rank
and file committee. The Waters
leadership under the pretext of fight
ing for the interests of the veterans
is attempting to steer the fight for
the bonus into non ineffective chan
nels of lobbying and away from the
policy of mass action which is the
only policy that will win.
All during the convention the
Waters group kept the doors of the
warehouse where the meeting was
held heavily guarded by military
police who kept out a large number
of the rank and file veterans. Only
after the so-called elections, in which
Waters was again declared conman-
der, was the body of the rank and
file admitted to the convection. The
late arrivals gained admission only
after they had made a considerable
demonstration before the warehouse
doors.
