a distinction necessary.

for his help to avoid" what Dublin
sky considers unnecessary strikes

THE SOVIET UNION
BUILDS new LIFE
Record Big Gains on
18th Anniversary
By n. Buchwald
european Correspondent of Daily
WOrkerl

MOSCOW, U. S. S. r., Nov a.
(By Cable).-The Soviet press,
filled with material portraying the
new type of men and women pro-
duced by fifteen years of the Re
volution, sights this as one of the
greatest achievements of the So
Wet Union. The entire life of the
people has been changed. The out
look of the individ, is totally diff
ferent that which prevails in the
capitalist countries.
The young generation brought
up in the spirit Of workers rule and
under the guidence of the Leninis5
Communist Party now constitutes
forty percent of the entire popula-
ton. Even the bourgeois writers
admit the marvellous spirit of the
Soviet youth which is the gerst-
est asset of the Soviet Union. The
old generation workers and peas
ants has also undergone trans
formation from accustomed social
and moral habits, to the standards
of the proletarian dictatorship and
the self rule.
Developing Leaders
The workers and peasants are
coming to the fore as leaders Of
industry throughout the entire field
of Socialist economy and in con-
vention at Kharkov, were 20 per
cent workers and II per cent peas
ants. These and other striking eX-
amples prove that only in the So
Wet Union, under workers rule and
the leadership of the Communist
Party, conditions are created for
real opportunity of the individual,
the development of his talents and
creative ability, and unres trieted
advancement in the fields of tech
nioue. science and art.
Industrial Giants Confirm Gains
Above gains, strikingly con-
firmed by figures of the Moscow
District where illiteracy has been
eliminated to the extent of SO and
one half per cent of the population.
are seconded by the achievement OF
industry. The greatest industrial
giants of the Soviet Union report
the fufillment Of their October
quota, many Of the plants going
over the top. The Moscow auto
plant. called "Stalin," gave 1885
cars and a half millions worth
of spare parts for october. The Elec-
trozavod (Elecro-factory) employing
$4,000 and working entirely with So
Wet materials, has fulfilled its plan.
The average daily output of magnetos
is now four times greaer than it was
in January, 1882. This plant has full
filled its quota LOT percent The Mos
COW ball bearing plant has likewise,
completed its october quota. All Sec
tors of industry have increased pro-
duction and improved living condi-
lions of workers

"Gorkyl has passed the 5000 mark

NEW YORk.-A delegation of

The demands included one calling
for trucks to be supplied by the

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov 4.-Hoo-
yer on this eve of his speech here
today, issued copies of it to the press
He is doing what Republican csndi-
dates have rather given up lately
he is, in the absence of better argu-
ments, waving the bloody shirt
That is, he is trying to rouse the pas
sions Of the American Civil War.
Hoover compares the depression tc
the Civil War, and claims that as the
battle of Gettysburg turned the tide
there towards victory for the North
so he, Hoover, brought the country
around the corner of the depression
last winterl
Sixteen million jobless and the bull
let streWn battlefields of the Illinois
coal strike against an 18 per cent
wage cut deny his statement, but
that is his story and he is going to
stick to it.
He also repeats his original declar-
ations that his high tariff will save
the farmers, who are ruined under
the present high tariff. Hoover tried
to drive a wedge between the farm
ers and the unemployed, by declar-
ing that any jobless relief would be
at the expense of the farmers.
The Communist program Is for
united picketing, united dcmonstra-
tons for relief, for higher prices tc
the farmer and lower to the city
workers.

Workers Protest Police Threat to Attack
Picketers of u. S. Supreme Court Monda,

directly before the chambers of the
Supreme Court.
The hearing was stormy, the del
egation militantly defending the
rights OF the workers to picket the
boss court. Gnash concluded the in
terview by showing the delegation to
the door. Sitting directly behind
Gnash during the hearing was rep
resentative of the Capitol authorities
whispering directives to him.
The local capitalist press is carry
ing full front page headlines on the
plans to picket the court. Frank
Spector, assistant national secretary
CT the LID, commentin on the police
threat declares:
This action Is clearly dictated
on the order of the highest au-
thority of the land. The capitalists
and their government are alarmed
at the growing realization among
the Negro and white workers of
the role of the Supreme Court as
an instrument of the ruling class
for the perpetuat:on of their rule
Of exploitation and starvation, and
especially for the continuance of
the monstrous national oppression
and persecution of the Negro mass
es.

Over a hundred pickets and
members of the Central Strike
Committee were arrested to-
day
Treason charges are to be placed
against those arrested, according to
reports in the capitalist press.

Delegates of other city workers are

or be discharged. Then it tried to
run a few cars and buses on lines
to the center Of the city, and the re-
suit was fierce fighting between mass
pickets and police.
Police Kill Striker
The police fired at the crowd on
numerous occasions, killed one strik-
er and wounded several, at the
Schoenberg depot.
Very few cars got out. Big crowds
before all the depots stopped them.
The union officials, many of them
Socialists, appealed to all to go back
to work according to the company rs
orders.
The strikers refused to heed the
appeals or the orders or threats. They
are standing fast. The subway sta
tons remain closed. Here and there
isolated buses or street cars run
with heavy guards of police and
with broken windows and stones
rained on them at various points.
1t is obvious that a majority OF
the workers organized in this right
wing union refuse to obey the re-
turn to work order as long as the
Red Trade Union Opposition calls for
a continuation of the strike.
The Socialist prestige is greatly
damaged. Strikers stopped the truck
delivering bundles of the Vorwaerts

seized the papers and scattered them
about the street.
The strike is costing the company
half million marks a day, whereas
the wage cut would total a million

Gto express my gratitude to the LID

rdinarily such a case is disposed of

lied by the LID has saved me from
deportation to fascist Roumania and
has made possible my voluntary de-
parture to the Soviet Union"

ALL OUT TONITE!
SCORE ROOSEVELT
Workers! "Greet" Him
AS He Deserves

NEW YORK.-Tonight, Franklin
D. Roosevelt, the hypocritical friend
of the forgotten man." will speak
at Madison Square Garden.
The workers of New York do not
forget that in April 1881, he used
the state police to club the hunger
marchers in Albany. We do not
forget that his government proposes
wage cuts for the state employees.
We do not forget thaS the Tam
many machine is part of Roose-
velt's party, and its candidate fer
mayor of New York, O'Brien, has
promised more clubbing for the I'M
employed of New York.
The veterans do not forget that
Roosevelt is against the bonus, and
by his silence approved the driving
Of the veterans out Of Washington
and the murder of five of their
buGdies.
The Negro workers do not forget
that Roosevelt is of the party that
has disfranchised 100000 Negroes
in the south, that has lynched 1000
Negroes since 1882; that gives full
support to Roosevelt, the Ku Klux
Khan, lynch hater Of the Negroes
and white workers.
Therefore, the workers of New
York will give a pr"per reception
to Roosevelt at Madison Square
Garden tonight.
Be at 49th Street and 8th Ave
tonight at pa, and let Roosevelt
know that his talk about the ''for-
gotten man" does not fill stOmachs,
and that the workers are going to
fight for their rights!
