After short discussion on the floor under
the sound of the Speakers gavel, on Monday,
June s, 1882 the Fish-Dies bill was adopted by
the seventy-second congress
The bill was adopted in spite of the many
protests of workers delegations from various
organizations
Mr.. Samuel Dickstein, the chairman of the
Immigration Committee of Congress, has not
only betrayed his electors, but did not even at
tempt to comply with his supposed 'liber-
alism" with which he flirts The workers of
this country should learn lesson from Mr..
Dickstens tactics and in these coming elections
take decisive stand against the reaction and
demagogy of their betrayers.
Observation-Disclosures Demagogue.
s How cautiously and in what a. tolerant manner
has Mr. DickStein presided at the hearing of our
workers delegation when it appeared before his
committee! Mr. Dickstein, in a recent debate
over the radio, has even feathered himself with
smooth phrases. He tried to impress the radio
audience by attacking American reaction and
the so-called Daughters of American Revolu-
ton" But now he has exposed himself as a
black reactionary. Our gentleman was Silent
when the right time came, as the bill came be-
fore congress.
Like a coward has our gentleman retreated
from his position This fact should be brought
forward to each worker of Mfr. Dckstein's dis
trict. To tear of his mask and expose his re-
dictionary views which we're until now so slyly
concealed. Mr.. Dickstein stands on record as
a supporter of one of the most reactonary bills
which were adopted by the seventy-second con-
gress
Suppression for All Workers.
American Imperialism is preparing for new
bloodshed for profit. The masses know the re-
suits Of war. They know the reward" of the
heroes of war. They are resisting the war
hysteria. The answer of congress-shut the
mouths Of the masses Shut the mouth of the
entire American working class. It's true that
thus far they have started with the aliens but
a. hope the time will come however, when
we can deal effectively with those who openly
advocate the overthrow of our government
whether they be native born or alien :. p
These gems Of speech were used in the discus
sion on this bill by Congressman Jenkins of Ohio
This is the very same gentleman who was so
eaker. to find out what will my attitude be in
case of war between the United States of Amer
lea and the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics
when testified with the workers delegation
against this bill.
1t Is interesting to note that Mr.. Jenkins does
not even mention the words force and violence"
1t only means that his punishment and persecu-
ton will be practiced on each and everyone who
will dare to express any opposition whatsoever
against the government.
Strikebreaking Law.
This bill, II 1t becomes law will become
an instrument for breaking any attempt on the
part of the workers to unionize themselves. Even
the unquestionably anti-Communst Congress
man LaGuardia must admit that.
V" This is an open shop bill, by which any
cxploiter Of labor take any man who is
seeking TO protect his rights as worker and
brand him a Communist and have him de-
ported"
La Guardia is not against deportation of Com
nunists. On the contrary, what he demands is
! only TO carry out this Job within the present
limits Of capitalist laws. h. therefore. insisted
