Fat Cops Lead Ragged
Hungry Children Thru
Streets of Chester

CHESTER, Pa, Sept. 15.-The
Boys Club parade, which was held
here on the 29th, is a lasting
shame and disgrace to the pre-
sent form Of Government. The
struggling line of hungry, ragged
children that staggered through
the Maine Street of Chester that
day was a typical example Of
what the capitalist exploitation
form Of government has accom-
plished in the way of distributing
natures beautiful supply of wealth.
First came the Town Clowns -
police-right behind them came
another jackass-but this one had
four legs, with a six year old
child on its back. Next came the
penny-ante foot lickers - politician
lackeys. There were three bands
continually playing music to make
the eight hundred children forget
their hunger and endow them with
strength enough to reach the Gro
zier Party, where they were loaded
on trucks and taken to Charles
Park, like pigs going to market,
FOR there were no seats in the
trucks and the underfed children
had to stand up during the ride.
They were all set for the big
feed (?). Well if they were lucky
enough to get good feed it was
the first for long time for
good many of them. There were
two things about this parade that
was most remarkable. One was
the smiles on the faces of the bus
mess men as they watched the
half-starved children march along
the street. The other remarkable
thing was the notable contrast be-
tween the pot-bellied over-fed po-
lice, and the pinched, hungry
faces of the children. Even the
fourlegged jackass was fat.
Comradely,

Proves NaziS Fired Reichstag
Turning to the Iaazis, the book
shows that they were the only ones
who stood to gain by the burning of
the Reichstag; that Hitler, 'Goering
and Goeboels, although speaking ev-
cry day of the election campaign in
different cities throughout Germany
at the time, had left the two days
preceding the fire open, with no other
engagements; and that the only way
the firebrands could have gotten ac-
cess to the Reichstag building was
through the underground tunnel
leading from Goering's official resi-
| dence.
After furnishing conclusive evil
dence that the Nazis-and only the
Nazis-set fire to the Reichstag, the
Brown Book" goes into the reign
of Nazi terror, murder and torture
| tnaC followed the lire.
Goering a Drug Addict
The Brown Book" proves by fac
sin1ile photostats that Goering. who
has led the protesting Nazi chorus of
ily-whites, was confined in a Swed-
ish asylum as an incurable drug
addict. His addiction to morphine is
specifically stated in this document,
which also reveals that Goering and
his wife were irresponsible and bru-
tai degenerates, from whose influ-
ence their child had to be removed.
The disclosures of the Brown
Book" which Lord Marley in his
foreword says ARE not exceptional
cases, but typical of many others in
our possession" adding that each one
has been carefully checked and
proven" expose the Nazi claims as
brazen lies.
A professor in Harvard Law School,
after reading the book, exclaimed
that the facts portrayed were "obvi-
ously true and simply hair-raising"
Germany a Living He'll
Photographs and calculations of
Nazi murders make more vivid the
picture presented by this extraordi-
nary publication-that Germany to-
day is living hell, giant torture
chamber in which tens of thoyren1s
of revolutionary workers and left
wing intellectuals are at the mercy
Of unprincipled sadists.
Nearly 100 uages of material re-
flute the Nazi claim that mot a hair
on the head Of any Jew has been
touched" giving documentary evil
dence of pogroms and fortunes that
can find parallel only in Czarist
Russia and the Middle Ages.
The Brown Book" is of especial
significance in view of the forthcom-
ing Reichstag trial, which has been
set for September 81. It's narrative
and proofs should be broadcast to the
whole American working class, show
ing what Fascism is really like, with
its mask torn off.
1t is regrettable that an English
edition has not been published in the
United States as yet, for the Brown
Book" is destined to become one of
the most effective weapons in the
snti-Fascist campaign throughout the
country. It's authoritative, conclusive
and irrefutable proofs are a smashing
answer to all the pro-NaA propa-
ganda Of the bourgeois press-and
they must become part of the arse
nal Of every opponent of F'ascism in
America.

TERROR Drown Book on the
Reichstag Fire and Hitler Ter
ror), foreford by Lord Marley.

francs.
The burning of the German Reich
stag building on the night Of Feb
ruary 81, 1888, was the signal for
the most gigantic reign of terror ever
aimed at the working-claSs movement
in the history of the world. Under
the charge that the German Com
munists had set fire to the Reichstag
as signal for widespread assassi-
nations, arson and sabotage, the Ma
zis llnleashed the full fury of Fas-
cist terrorism against the German la
Dor movement.
The Nazis arrested Ernst Torgler,
chairman of the Communist depu-
ties in the Reichstag, Georg Dimi-
troff, leader of the Communist Par
ty of Bulgaria, and Popoff and Ia
neff. two other Bulgarian Commu-
nists, together with mysterious
Marinus van der Lubbe, seized at
| the scene of the fire, as the alleged
incendiaries, promising to put them
on trial at once. But although the
Nazi charges that the fire was the
work of Communists were greeted
by the ridicule of practically every
newspaper in the world outside of
Germany, the accused Communist
leaders have been held in Jail in
communicate for over six months
Sober Analysis of Facts
After months of laborious effort
the International Committee for the
Victims of Hitler Fascism. headed by
Professor Albert Einstein and Lord
| Marley, Deputy Speaker of the Brit
ish House of Lords, has just issued
the Brown Book on the Reichstag
Fire and Hitler Terror" a sober
analysis Of the facts surrounding the
fire and of the unspeakable terror
that followed-and that is still rag
ing unchecked throughout Nazi Ger
many.
The documents published in the
Brown Book" were obtained by
many collaborators in the Third
Reich itself, who obtained material
for the book at the risk of their
lives" according to the preface. The
publishers of the Brown Book" have
let the facts speak for themselves.
The Brown Book" builds up its ir-
REPUTABLE case upon facsimile docu-
ments, photographs, eyewitness af-
fidavits and citations from Nazi
sources themselves.
Life History of Van der Lubbe
The complete life history of van
der Lubbe, the weak tool of Hitler,
Goering and Goebbels, which the Ma
zis have kept secret up to the pres
ent day, is revealed here for the first
time. How the Nazi plan for setting
the Reichstag on fire was Matched
and the role assigned to van der
Lubbe is outlined in detail-and ev-
cry detail of the chain of evidence
is buttressed by documentary proof.
The Brown Book" makes an analy-
sis of the Nazis' own reports on the
fire, pointing out no less than 81
contradictions in their statements.
Alright proof is given that Torgler
was nowhere near the Reichstag
when the fire was set, and that van
der Lubbe, the firebrand, never had
any contact with the leaders Of the

Pitts hadn't thought of that. Ano

had heard of this skipper, he real
lied it might turn out that way.
Have you talked this over with
Stanley and Gunnar?"
mot yet. Before doing that, we az
members of the red trade union mus
work out concrete proposals"
Pitts coughed thoughtfully. What
could be done? Slim pulled his chail
closer. Listen! The first thing is, tc
feel out every man in your gang"
what about?"
1.-THE wage cut, for instance"
well, I can tell you right now
they're all sore about that"
"Sore enough to go on strike in
Copenhagen"
''What?"
ITO strike in Copenhagen for with
drawal of the cut, and payment of
back wages?"
Pitts whistled through his teeth.
you mean that seriously? Are those
MWIU. demands?"
Slim nodded.
But we've signed the articles al
ready! And the shipping rules"
Forget It'll Those are shipowners'
ropes that we've got to break"
Pitts stared thoughtfully ahead of
him. Strong, light sunbeams shot
through the curtains. They bored into
the floor like spears. Before the eyes
of the oiler the brass railing of the
engineroom left their sockets. AS
though hurled from an unseen hand,
they suddenly shot into the deck of
the engineroom. The ship ceased vi
brating. Stopped!
Unconsciously, the oiler grit his
teeth. From the distance he heard
a voice Making clear, eh?" This
recalled him to himself. An incred-
ible silence rang in his ears, Just
as in the trenches, in the dead min
utes before attack. He shook the vi
sion off, and turned to Slim.
II am ready, comrade.-What I
don't see yet is, how does it help
you fellows, when we in the black
gang striker"
1--WE strike with you'll"
TN order that the black gang gets
its wages back?"
"Yessir! We strike for you, and
you for US: No member of the crew
is to be victimized or firedl We will
set up common demandsl"
Pitts saw the light now. "But do
you think we can strike like that
in foreign port, without our union,
without any help?"
"You forget, comrade, that we have
an Interclub there"
''That's right! BY dollyl Well do
it, Slim"
Easy, old boyl You're not the
whole blackgapg. You get them, and
I'll talk with the deckgang. Then
we'll build our ships committee
and start the fireworks"
Pitts was transformed. He looked
at the clock. II got to be running
along. I'll get on the job all right"
That's good. And don't forget the
second assistant" Slim called Pitts
closer, and whispered, Get now what
meant before, when I said that was
Important"

5 STATES MAKE
PLEAFOR Low
LIQUOR TAX

DES MONIES, Iowa, Oct. 81
GN.S0.-A drive to keep the
Federal tax on liquor reasonably
low after prohibition repeal and
as uniform as possible through
out the country was under way
today following a five-State con-
ference here yesterday on liquor
problems.
The conference, attended by
representatives of Middle-Weste
governors, concluded that reason
ably low liquor taxes, both State
and national, will be imperative
to discourage bootlegging and ILL
cit manufacture.
kilograms urging that the ma
tional tax not be exorbitant will
be dispatched to President Roose-
velt from each Of the States
represented at the meeting.
The meeting, called to discuss
the possibility Of drafting uni
form legislation to be put into
effect in the five States attend.
ing, concluded that such a plan
would be impractical.
Particular problems of the sew.
eraf States we're so different, the
delegates announced, that each
must be met in its own way.
The only recommendations de-
cided upon were the one con-
corning taxes and a recommends
ton that States which set up
State-owned liquor stores after
prohibition keep the price Of spir-
its reasonably near the price for
which similar liquor is sold by pri-
vately operated stores in other
States.
The latter is necessary, it was
pointed out, to prevent wholesale
rum-running from States with low
liquor prices into States where the
price is necessarily higher.

SMITH SILENCE
PUZZLES n. !.
POLITICIANS

NEW YORK, Oct. 27 GN.S0.
al Smiths silence in New York's
mayoralty campaign "a spec
tacular, three-cornered battle
which threatens to bring about
the defeat of Tammany Halls
candidate-evoked wide sprea d
comment in political circles today.
Smith, a Tammany sachem,
has maintained what is regarded
as q significant lcOtness in the
campaign, raging for weeks.
Election Day Near
With election day. November 7,
only II days away, Smith has
failed to endorse Tammany's
candidate for reelection-John P.
O'Brien. He has refrained from
endorsing anybody. He hasn't
lifted a finger or raised a voice
In the campaign.
This is unlike Al Smith. Such
an attitude is perplexing to some
political observers.
This year New York city is con-
tronted with a new situation. The
electorate is represented in the
newspapers to be aroused. This is
evidenced by the fact that 2,322,-
S82 citizens have registered to
vote, a record for a municipal elec-
tion and only 1922 fewer than
registered for the combined ma
tional, State and city election last
year.
Tammany Faces Defeat
Tammany is under fire as it
never has been before. It's prestige,
because of alleged municipal ex-
travagances dating back to the
regime of Former Mayor James
]. Walker, has suffered a blow.
Many political observers see Tam
many facing certain defeat in the
forthcoming election.
Newspaper and magazine polls
Ghow O'Brien, the Tammany can
didate, running far behind his two
chief opponents-Joseph v. Nc
Kee, the Recovery Party nominee,
and Fiorello H. LaGuardia, fusion
candidate.
The attitude of Al Smith, mean
while, continues to be one of the
big question marks of the cam
paign.
