lows:
"We the undersigned, members
of the Socialist party and County
Executive committee of the party,
wish to make the following state
ment:
in joining the Socialist party
we were guided by the perspective
of joining a fighting revolutionary
organization, whose tasks are
those of organizing and leading
the workers in a struggle against
capitalism which is responsible for
the suffering and misery of the
working class.
I'm CROW PARTY
while actively participating in
the work of the party, we have
closely observed and carefully
studied its program, methods and
leadership, both national and local,
the national and state conventions,
etc. For instance: In the national
convention in Milwaukee there was
OF a single Negro delegate. They !
refused to call for struggle for the
liberation of the class war prison |
ers in the capitalist prisons, while
at the same time they demanded |
freedom for the food prisoners, |
sabOteurs, counter revolutionaries
and supporters Of the war monger-
ing capitalists in the Soviet Un-
ion. They nominated Norman
Thomas who sveaks over the same
hook-up with ]. P. Morgan in sup
port of the block-aid system, and
who openly supported the capital
is Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
alton. The party accepted the
capitalist slogan in the last world
war, "The war to end war" "The
war for democracy" and now in
the national convention we still
raise the slogan of democracy,
which can only be democracy for
the ruling class, in fact support
ing them, in their present prepar-
atoms for war against the Soviet
Union. Hi1lquit's famous lawsuit ]

CAPITALIST SYSTEM is IN DECAY

They want to hide the fact that the "dislo-
cation of markets after the war" is the result Of
the decay which has now set in under the capi-
talist system, and that this "disocaton" is per
manent feature of capitalism during the economic
break up Of the system.
Why do they want to hide these facts? Be
cause they want to prevent the farmers from see
ing that it is capitalism that is the of their
misery. They want the farmers to believe that
il is some friction in the otherwise perfect work
ing of the capitalist system that crises and
that bring such unteld misery for the totrs Of
city and land. They want to prevent the farmers
from realizing that it is the system that is at
fault. that the system is in de,.y and that the de-
cay of the system means evI greater misery for
the toing masses.
TO PRESERVE CAPITALIST DICTATORSHIP
II they can make the farmers believe that it
il some ill working Of the capitalist system that
is the cause Of their exploitation and privation
then these farmers can be ensnared by some "aE-
rieultural relief" plan Otherwise, if the farmers
realize that such system as this can only mean
misery, oppression and war, paid for by the toll
ers then they will also begin to realize that mis-
cry, oppression and war can only be abolished by
abolishing this system, by destroying the dictator
Shp of the capitalist class and establishing in its
place dictatorship of the proletariat, workers
and farmers government.
BraEen lying also has its part in the Republican
attempt to mislead the farmers. After the defla-
tion Of 1890, says the Republican platform,
"The position of agriculture was gradually i'm
proved" supposedly by means of "long record
of legislation in aid of the cooperative organiza
ton of farmers and in providing farm relief .
under Republican administrations"

PIONEER FRONTIER
 EDITOR, WELLS DRURY,
 PASSES AT BERKELEY

BERKELEY, Calif, May 5. P)- Wells Drury, 81 years of age, a pioneer editor and survivor of the days made famous by Brete Harte and Mark Twain, and who often walked the streets of the rough mining camps of Nevada under the threat of being shot "at sight" be- cause he dared to print news that hurt the tender feelings of gum toterS, died at his home here We'd neSday.
 But Drury, who when only 10 years old had been appointed by President Lincoln as an Indian interpreter, was well able to take care of himself although hair trigger pistols blazed sudden death around the Comstock lode in those pioneer days.
 On his first day in the Comstock as reporter for ''The Gold Hill News" young Drury covered a fatal shooting, a Stage-coach wreck on the Geiger grade, and two fatal ac- cidents in the mines. The day otherwise was peaceful except that an intruder came to the newspaper office to shoot the editor, but fled hastily when pistol went off ac- cidentally.
 Drury's pay as a reporter was $7.50 a day, plus an allowance of $2.50 day as whisky money" The liquor allowance, which never proved sufficient, was not for the young scribe himself but for the entertainment of the citizens inter- viewed in saloons, the invariable meeting places, on his rounds as news gatherer.
 This was the background of a newspaper and political career that extended from California to Chicago and covered more than 60 years activity.
 Drury vas born in a log cabin at New Boston, H., September 16, 1851, his parents being Squire Thompson Drury and Rebecca Drury.
 Quitting his newspaper work in 1908, he remained with the Ber- kelley, Calf, Chamber of Com merce for IA years but was not ready to retire even then and be- came associated with his sons in an advertising agency.
 Drury married Ella L. Bishop of Reno, New, on May 23, 1888. They had two sons, Newton Bishop and Aubrey Drury, and two daughters, Muriel and Lorraine.
