only to replace them with their
Democratic twin brothers.
In order to trick those
workers and farmers who are
no longer fooled by two-party
fakery, NEW demagogy and
promises are being INDUCED in
to make the masses choose be-
tween ''Progressives" and ''Re-
dictionaries" within the two
open capitalist parties.
But this is merely the divi-
sion Of labor between two parts
of the same gang of swindlers,
who are working together on
one platform, which is the cap
italist way out of the crisis.
The so-called Progressives
have exactly the same reac-
tionary program as Hoover,
the program to lower the liv-
ing standards Of the masses
in order to raise the profits
Of the capitalists. The "pro-
gressive Republican" Pinchot,
asg overnor of Pennsylvania
dries through the wage-cuts
against miners, steel workers
and all others, with the same
ruthlessness as Hooer does ma
tionally; his state troopers kill
strikers and unemployed work
ers and smash labor unions
just as effectively as his ere
dictionary brothers. The "pro-
gressive Democrats" ~Roose-
welt and Richie, starve the
unemployed and club strikers,
smile upon the lynching of Ne
groes and dispossession of
bankrupt farmers, the same as
any "reactionary."
The difference between Pro-
gressive and Reactionary is
merely on the surface, for pur-
poses of demagogy, to hide the
same basic program of the cap
italist way out of the crisis.
Openly supporting the Hoov-
er program, is the officialdom
of the American Federation of
Labor. It fights against the
workers and for the capitalists
on every essential point. 1t
fights against Unemployment
Insurance, against the bonus
for the ex-soldiers, it prevents
strikes and signs agreements
for broad wage-cuts, it fights
for huge grants of money to
the corporations and taxation
of the masses, it supports new
laws TO help build greater
giant monopolies, il helps pre-
pare imperialist wars, especi-
ally the war against the Soviet
Union. Through its deceitful
"non-partisan" policy of Gre
ward friends and punish en-
emies," it delivers the workers
gagged and bound to the Re-
publicans and Democrats, "pro-
