Chalk This Down Carefully

Workers should take due note right now, thaa
the democrats are just as enthusiastic as the re-
pubcans in Congress, for the new way OF put
ting over a general wage cut that is called
sales tax.
incidentally, showing that incompetence 10
rewarded, the United Press dispatches Of Febru-
airy reported both the approval by the Senate
of Ogden L. Mills as secretary Of the Treasury,
and the admission by Mills of treasury error
OF $455, 100000.
To make up for this mistake Of Secretary Mills
Secretary Mills suggests sales tax And the
democrats are all for it, too Among the demo.
Gratis who are cheering for the move to tax what
workers eat, the Hearst service plays up Con-
gresham Crisp of Georgia. After explaining"
that for some reason he doesn't give. the rich
cannot be taxed to balance the federal budget.
and that it must be balanced by a sales tax.
Crisp lets this out:
To-day some of your government bonds are
selling as low as IS cents on the dollar. II you
continue to issue bonds there will be further
depreciation. The premier security of the world
today is the United States bond and If you do
not stop issuing bonds they will show further
depreciation and all industrial and CONNER
cial bonds, stock, lands and everything slss
will depreciate.'
Now that would be downright bad, wouldn't IT.
Yet that is exactly what is going to happen, even
if the capitalists do have their sales tax, from
which they aim to extract penny on every dish
of baked beans, so to speak, that the workers
consume. Yes, sir. that premier security of the
0apitalist) world, the U. S. bond is going down
below IS.
WhyP Well, for one thing, when the masses
wake up to what that sales tax is going to do
to them, their opinion Of the government will go
down from IS to SO or maybe lower. Also, all such
taxes are limitation on production, and the
more limitation the worse for the symbol Of capt.
talist government strength the price Of its bonds.
Moreover, in the first place, $2,oo0,000,00o in
additional paper bonds have lust been approved
BY Co-r-essman Crisp and all his little republic
con e~d democratic side-F'c'-s and that is pure
i-f'o IN, which will have its effect on q. S.
h~~t'.
r-ei'r-tr"v, IT'S oil wrong what Crisp said
eNo"t r. 8 hc~1s teino TIE premier security "of
t'-e wo-'d" We left the Scv'ets out, and the
-e,'lv bet security is Soviet Government bonds
Rut eve, If you have been boarding. you can't
huv them over here. That's privilege that only
Soviet workers have. The nearest thing to It that
you can do is to Join the Communist Party and
thus join the fight for Soviet Government right
here. It's the price of beans, not bonds, that
should interest you.

raised from private sources will be exhausted by
the 18th of February. Eviction cases in that city
average $50 per day. In Cleveland the local re-
lief funds practically exhausted, while the
need for help has substantially increased.
Green Looks for Explanations
Mr.. Green who helped to swell the profits of
the big corporations by helping wage cuts, began
to look for explanations" when Congress handed
these same bosses billions in government funds
So Green said:
mo explanation can be made to hungry
people and their sympathetic friends which
would satisfy them as to why Congress voted
billions to aid banks and corporations and
would refuse to appropriate even moderate
sum TO be used for the purpose of assisting the
States and communities in supplying food,
clothing and shelter to patriotic, loyal citizens
who are suffering from unemployment"
Green wants Congress to give the workers
explanations" not relief. He wants the relief"
to go to assisting the States and communities
that is, to helping Jimmie Walker and Mayor
Cermak make up their dwindng graft
Drive Against Unemployment Insurance
No worker should be fooled by the latest
rantings ofthe A. F. of L. leadership. They are
of the same cloth the promises of Mr. Green
and Hoover at the beginning of the crisis They
have the same end-a powerful drive to keep the
workers from fighting for un~--r'ovn,nnt irerr-
ance and against wage cuts-so that the stand
ard of living of the entire American working
class can be lowered and the bosses profits o.
which Mr.. Green and the other 100-petiton
presenters have no little INTEREST," be preserved
The most effective answer workers can give is
TO build powerful movement of the unem-
ployed, rallying new millions in the struggle for
the Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill by
speeding the movement within the A. F. of L.
endorsing unemployment insurance to be paid
by the BOSSES and their government at the rate
of full wages, coming out Of the fortunes and
profits Of the rich, and by strengthening the
struggles on all fronts against the decaying cap
italism which Green seeks to save at the expense
Of the lives OF millions OF workers.

&4s~.A
A Special Tribute"

The Rome correspondent of the N. Y. Arned.
can of February II, in cabling the account Of
MusSolini's reception at the Vatican where the
Swiss Guards were drawn up to receive the
fascist murderer, goes on to remark that the
Guards had laid aside their usual ancient hall
berds as follows:
In place of halberds, were rifles with fixed
bayonets, a special tribute to the visitor"
One is lost in admiration of the Pope, the rep
resentative of Christ, according to his own claim
who is thoughtful enough to keep good bunch
of rifles with fixed bayonets" around to show
that he's real Christian. Particularly, in view
of the fact that he was supposed to pay % spe.
cial tribute" to MuSsolini, another Christian who
just dotes on guns, by showing rifles with fixed
bayonets, instead Of halberdS.

PART 1.

THE first condition for the mobilization Of the
Party for the struggle against war is merci-
less struggle against the underestimation Of the
war danger-particularly against the mderesti-
nation Of the war danger against the Soviet
Union.
What is the main cause for the slow response
Of the Party to the struggle against war, with
consequent indecisiVenesS and lack of sustained
activities in the mobilization of the masses In
the struggle against war!
The cause Is to be found In the very insult
ficient popularizing of LeninS teachings on
war, In the lack of thorough political digestion
and application of the resolutions of the Com
munist International The result is that we do
not develop systematic and persistent Strug-
gle against opportunistic manifestations.
The absence of such struggle in practice as
sunes the character OF rotten liberalism"
which was SO decsively condemned by Comrade
Stain in his recent letter.
We must, therefore, regardless OF persons
carry on decisive struggle against opportunis-
tic manifestations of right and left character
In order to understand the seriousness and
danger Of these manifestations we must trace
them to their source, that is, the bourgeois in
fuences within the ranks Of the working class
and their reflection within the Party
We will first of all very briefly state the line
which gives the analysis of the C. !. on the war
situation
With the continuous deepening of the crisis
the bourgeosie is sharply faced with the ques-
ton of iquidating it. BY what method BY a
murderous attack on the standard r living of
the toiling masses, Of the colonial peoples, and
by the most desperate and feverish struggle for
markets. for the armed redivision of the world,
through new imperialist world war. In sub

Prices on material and labor for repairs, re- modelling or improvements for the home, are now very low. It is not probable that these prices will remain at such a level very long, and it is sound business to have such work done on your home now when you can effect great saw ings. If you do not have sufficient cash for the work you want done, come down and talk 1t over with us. Possibly we can arrange to have your work done on convenient time payment plan, whereby you will pay small amount down and the balance on easy monthly terms.

 Following up the cloth, the Red Cross prepared to give mems trou- sers, overals, jumpers, boys knick- CTS, underwear and stockings ana sox for all the family.
 Without the work of the women who volunteered as seamstresses, and the thousands of men and women who helped give flour, clothing and other direct relief. in the name of the Red Cross, these useful aids to the unemployed would not have been handled so promptly, nor reached so many people, Red Cross officials say.
 In the administration of the wheat and cotton, the Red Cross will expend an estimated $450,000. Funds from the Red Cross treasury will be used. Every Red Cross mem bership in the annual roll call from Armistice day to Thanksgiving day will help toward meeting these costs.
 Chairman John Barton Payne has characterized the relief emer- gency facing the Red Cross this winter as the greatest 1t has had to meet since the World war. and has appealed for the support or every citizen.
