the Socialists carried thru wage
cut. but eff it were true, that every
social system must make cuts in
times of emergency argument
which the capitalists are using to
put thru their present wage slashing
offensive. Blanchard denied that
Thomas attacked the Soviet Union,
claiming that he only said that the
Soviet Union rests upon terror. Thus
Blanchard attempted to conceal the
bitter campaign which the Socialists
have conducted for years and which
was summarized in the statement of
Thomas, in his book "As I See It."
page 90: "One thing, however is Ger
tain. the Russian government rules
by tyranny and terror with secret
police. espionage and arbitrary ex-
ecutions."
Socialist Party Puts Over Ware Cuts
Blanchard pleaded that the So
ctaist government Of Milwaukee was
hamstrung by capitalism and could
not be expected to put its policies
into effect. At the close of his re-
marks the students called for rebuff
tai and Weinstone was given five
minutes in which to reply, and he
pointed out that Blanehard's argu-
ment that wage cuts are necessary in
times of crises is the argument of
the capitalists and shows that behind
the practices carried out by the So
cialist Party there is also a capital
ist viewpoint; that the Socialist Par
tX has therefore degenerated into a
third party of capitalism.
Blanchard Challenged to Debate
Weinstone challenged Blanchard
to debate before Election Day, under
conditions which would make possible
a more detailed presentation of views.
This Blanchard accepted, stating,
however, that it would have to oc-
eur after Christmas"

Prison Camp White
wash Hide Southern
Sweat Box Terror

JACKSONVILLE. Fla, Oct. g.
The trial Of two Florida prison camp
guards, Courson and Higginbotham,
fer the murder of 21-year old Ar
thur Maillerfert, in a sweat box, is
now going on. The keynote of the
trial was set by the judge who an
neunced at the outset that he wanted
mo undue publicity"
There are some facts the author
titles cannot hide, and these the CAPT
talist papers are hlaring forth with
fake surprise and denunciation These
facts are that Maillefert was last June
found dead in the sweat box of the
Sunbeam prison camp strangled by
the iron collar around his neck and
his feet encased in wooden stocks /;
also that such tortures are widespread
throughout Florida.
But the fact that neither the gov
ernar or the legislature of Florida
has done anything to abolish these
prison camp fortunes since they are
necessary aceompanyments of CAPT
talist class rule. is, of course, given
no publicity in the newspapers. Nor
is anything much said about the fact
that it was unemployment and hun
ger, for which the capitalist system
was directly responsible, that led
young Maillefert two years ago to
try to rob filling station at Day.
tona Beach.
And nothing is said about the fact
that right now there are IA militant
tobacco workers of Tampa, Florida,
still suffering the tortures of Flor
ida's prison bells because they dared
to struggle against intolerable work
ing conditions, and that scores of
other class war prisoners throughout
the country are in the same fix
