The "star performer" Of the eve
ming, Hamilton Fish, began his
TRADE against the Communist
Party with the reading OF q letter
from William Green, President of
the American Federation Of Labor
to the Convention The praise
which Fish heaped upon the A. r.
OF L. for it's attacks upon the Com
inunist Party and 1.-THE revolutionary
trade unions were enough to cons
vince any worker, il by any wild
chance he should have been pres
ert, of the fascist nature Of that
organization. Calling 1t the ad-
vance guard of the fight against
Communism, Fish asked the CAPT
talists OF America to reward the
American Federation OF Labor
heads for their faithful services to
the American capitalist class.
The second Anti Communist Con-
vention" closed With the appoint
ment OF a COMMITTEES of five mem
bers. four from patriotic organiEa-
tons and one from the American

uonal expression to the drive against

fascists who spoke at the Conven-

rang the note of rsbid attack
against the Soviet Union. Unable to
reconcile democracy" with starva-
ton and terror, the fascistS resorted
to the worst form of lies and SANDER
against the workers fatherland.
Their fear Of the success Of the Five
Year Plan turned itself into an at

we're very careful to conceal the fact
tina tit was not the success of the
Five Year Plan that was undermin-
ing the living conditions of Amer
lean workers but the failure, break
down and bankruptcy Of capitalism
that was responsible. Fish called
upon all reactionary organizations to
flood Congress with a demand that
his bills for suppression of the work
ing class organization be passed.
The working class must answer the
reactionaries and faScists represented
at the Convention by strengthening
their organizations, by struggling
more deteruinedly than ever for IN
employment Insurance and irnf1e-
date relief and by supporting and
joining the Communist Party.

The Liberator, weekly organ Of the

Daily Worker VIII
Carry "Question and
Answer Column

Many workers who take a very
part in frthering the struggles
that are led daily by the Com
munist Party remain outside the
Party because they are unclear on
various aspects of the attitude of
the Communist Party to the burn
ing questions of the day both at
home and internationally.
The Recruiting Drive which the
Communist Party Is now conduct
ing makes IL more necessary than
ever that these questions be
answered Systematically in order
TO remove any possible barriers
that may be in the way Of the
workers joining the Party on
grounds of unclarity and uncer-
tainty.
The Daily Worker, therefore,
will carry once more as special
feature a Question and Answer
Column" to which workers are
urged to address their queries.
Although it viii be impossible in
many cases to answer all questions
fully, references will be given TO
books and pamphlets which work
ers should read for complete
answers.

Liberator Builds Solidarity Of
Negro and White Workers

LatiOnss
Liberator Builds Solidarity Of
Negro and White Workers
The Liberator, although its chief
function is the fight for the rights OF
the Negro masses, is a paper for
Negro and white workers. Without
the unity OF both, we cannot win the
struggles of the entire work1ng-class
against starvation, wage-cuts and
evictions. and without a unity OF
both we cannot win the fights against
the special persecution of the Negro
masses-lynch law, Jimcrowism, debt
slavery, chain gangs; for Negro rights
and the right of self-determination
OF the Negro masses in the Black
Belt Of the south. Whether it is in
an eviction struggle, a fight for IN
employment relief, or in a strike, only
the solidarity of the Negro and white
workers, fighting side by side. viii
win for them their demands.
The Liberator is the best and most
effective means for building this
unity. 1t is making provisions for
plentiful worker correspondence, more
feature articles. live news of working
class interest, poems. book reviews
and one-sct plays. The Liberator,
always in the forefront TO expose
every act of discrimination and per
secution against the Negro masses,
must be spread throughout every
working class section in the country.
Districts, L. S. n. r. groups: Raise
funds Immediately to enable The
Liberator to continue. Rush dons-
lions in without delay. If the amount

for the creation Of q special State
Department to Investigate and keep

finally for the complete outlswing
of the Communist Party, Young Com
munist League and the Young Pho
neers OF America.
The first three speakers, rittieton,
Gen Hartford, and Risley, personal
secretary OF Secretary OF Labor Doak,
rehashed the stale attacks about
Communism destroying the home,
family, marriage and happiness" IN
DERIVING all their speeches, however,
was the call for violence against any
attempt on the part Of the working
class TO organize real resistance to
the Hoover hunger program.
This Indictment to open violence
against militant workers was clearly
expressed by Representative Eslick
Of Tennessee who said:
@As soon as a Communist puts
his head up, we should throw him
in jail and then find a law to
justify It. IF we can't find the
law we shouId make one"
Even this talk of legal action
against Communists was thrown over
board as this Southern bourbon, a
member OF the Fish Committee, ad-
vanced along his harangue against
the Communist Party. Calling the
OOiuhuliIob ny EIidO OOS, ES-
lick told his audience OF wen-dressed
and well fed listeners that in his
state they shot mad dogs without any
mercy. This was an open call to
extra-legal violence against all mih-
tant workers.
Backman, who followed Eslick out
lined the steps that had already been
taken for the suppression Of working
class nlibtants, for the outlawing Of
strikes and for deepening the drive
against foreign born workers. He
also called for the passage OF an act
requiring all workers to prove to the
satisfaction OF the bosses that they
we're not Communists or members
Of the revolutionary trade unions
In addition he asked for federal laws
prohibiting the appearance of candi.
dates OF the Communist Party on
any ballot, county, city, state or ma
