HOW SOVIET WORKERS
rule THEMSELVES
Factory Workers Participate Directly In All
Proceedings of Soviets

psrtment having a certain number OF
sectors. The Communal department,
for example, is Subdiyided into three
sectors, housing, repair Of streets, and
g sector for highways.
All these departments and sectors
are closely linked up with the fac
tories. Here the social substitutes
play very important part, AS they
are not freed from productional work
in the factory and work side by side
with the rest of the workers they are
able to keep the workers In close con-
tact with the Soviets.
The workers through the Soviets
are able to control the life and pro
ductional activities Of the factory. On
the whole factory scale and in the de-
partments OF the KraSnaya Aksaya,
there are deputy groups which are
divided on the same basis as the So
VETS.
Meetings Open TO Workers
The meetings of these deputy
groups are open to all the workers
and here they discuss different ques-
tons arising in the factory, socialist
competition, fulfillment Of the Five
Year Plan, living and working con-
ditiOns, management Of factory, etc
The minutes of these meetings are
taken and sent to the Soviets where
they are thoroughly gone over and
acted upon.
In a capitalist country like the
United States, democracy only exists
in the narrow circles of the capitalist
class. The laws there are made and
put in force in the interests Of the
bosses
Here in the Soviet Union 1t is
quite the opposite. The fact is not
hidden that there exists a dictator
ship, but here it is not in the hands
Of the eXploiters, but, as the facts
above show, in the hands Of the pro-
letariat, who use the power against
the bourgeois elements and remnants
who would like to stage a comeback
in the Soviet Union and to enfold
the toiling masses of the USSR into
the folds Of capitalist slavery again.

port OF the ocial-democratic and
trade union leaders, will proclaim
the social military dictatorship"
This is no idle fantasy or specula-
ton. Thee are facts Scbleicher
and his Junker army are the last
hope Of Socisl-Democracy. To the
question, who will fight with whom?
the social-democratic leaders in this
case answer, not with words, but
with deeds: the Social-democratic
and trade union leaders will fight
with Schleicher for a Social-fascist
military dictatorship. Against Hit

Gallows for Workers.
After the burning of the Reichstag
by National Socialist agents, when
an order was issued for the arrest Of
all Communist functionaries and
Communist newspapers, posters, PAM
phlets and manifestoes we're prohib-
tied, all the ocial-democratic papers
were also banned in Prussia for IA
days and large number of social
democratic workers were arrested.
Yes, 1t sounds like q joke; an Or
der for arrest was actually issued
against Friedrich Stampfer, the
editor-in-chief Of vorwaerts, chief
socialist organ, and against another
vorwaerts editor, Victor Schiff, who
boosted not long ago that in 1925 he
had persuaded the French Govern
ment to permit ian increase" in the
number Of police in Prussia.
Goering declared that the most
dangerous enemy is Communism.
There is only one remedy against
this evil, he ssid--the gallows. And

HIT AT
WORKERS SPORTS
Arrest Leaders; Red
Sports Int'l Appeals

NEW YORK.-The Hitler terror
bands have smashed the headquart-
ers Of the militant German workers
sports movement, the Fighting AL
lance for Red Sport Unity, and have
arrested number of leading mem
bers of the Executive Committee OF
the Red Sports International. ac-
cording to information received by
the Labor Sports Union in this city.
Among the members Of the L. S. I.
Executive Committee arrested are
Ernest CRUDE, Willy Prietzel and
Paul Zobel.
August Delaune, secretary of the
French labor sports organization, was
arrested on the way to a meeting in
Berlin. The French ministry for To-
reign affairs claim that 1t does not
know where Delaune is.
Workers gyninasiums have been
raided and, In many cases, wantonly
destroyed. The equipment Of the
workers rifle clubs all over the coun-
try has been confiscated In Eisleben
O group of workers children gazing
through gymnastic exercises were
cruelty beaten by an invading Nazi
band. Reformist and revolutionary
sport groups have both felt the heavy
hand Of fascism.
Sport International Appeals
The Red Sports International has
issued an appeal to all worker sports
men which states in part:
"For weeks fascist terror has
ragged In Germany. 1t now has been
raised by the Hitler government to
the position Of an official program.
The prohibitions of meetings and
sport events, the numerous police
searches in the sport halls and the
closing Of these halls, have been
followed by the shutting of the
Central Bureau of the Fighting
Alliance for Red Sport Unity.
"We call upon all the sport-lOv-
ing masses in all countries to de-
velop q mighty protest movement
against this attack. Worker sports
men, show your solidarity with the
German worker sportsmen! Protest
In your meetings and demonstra-
lions against fascist terror in Ger

arrested worker sportsmen! The
fascist attack must be met by the
united front OF all toiiing sports
men irrespective of organization!"

braSnaya AkSaya is an agricultural
implement factory in ROstoY, u.S.SR.
on the River Don. This factory man
fractures complicated farm machin-
cry, and includes about $500 workers.
Here as in all other factories in the
Soviet Union the workers vote and
elect their representatives to the So
vietS not only from the members of
the Communist Party but from the
whole mass OF the workers.
Social Substitutes
From the $500 workers in KraSnaya
Aksaya there are 81 deputies to the
City SoYiets and Sc TO the Section
lRayon) Soviets. Besides these, there
are zoe social substitutes who, like the
deputies, are elected at the factory
election meetings.
The social substitutes are attached
10 the deputies, whom they assist in
carrying out the work. The social
substitutes are not freed from their
work in the factory Their work in
the SOyietS is regarded as social duties
and they do not receive a salary for
this, but they have voting rights in
the SoyietS. Through these social
substitutes the workers are able to
learn everything that is going on in
the Soviets, and to make proposals
or complaints.
Get No More Than Other Workers
The Soviet deputies salaries do not
exceed the wages they receive at the
bench in the factories. Every six
months each deputy must report to
the general meeting of the workers
who elected him or her to represent
them in the Soviets. The deputies
from the Krasnaya Aksaya are elected
for term Of two years. but can be
recalled at any time.
How is the work carried out within
the Soviets? The Soviets are divided
into departments such as communal,
finance, cooperative trade, industrial,
XXI. (Workers and Peasants Inspec-
tion), social living, etc.
There is also division OF work in
the different departments, each de-

In che same statement, however,
they say that 1--WE fully recognize
that the German people have the
right to choose such rulers and such
form Of government as they may
wish" concealing the fact that the
German peoples voice is stifled, that
the Fascist regime vigorously sup
presses any expression of popular dis
approval Of bloody Nazi rule.
The New York Times adds It's pious
voice to the chorus, writing editor
tally that there is every disposition
in this country to hope the best OF
the new Germany that is emerging
Here we have the united bourgeois
Gentile-Jewish front in this country,
trying to Stifle all energetic meas
ures Of popular protest against Fas-
cist anti-semitic atrocities. They are
afraid that the masses protest may
grow beyond the limits of protest
against anti-SemitiSm, and may de-
yelop into action against the entire
Fascist regime in Germany. The
capitalist press repeats the hoping
for the best" which was their only
answer to the MuSsolini reign Of ter
ror in Italy years ago, while Wise
and his clique go to Washington to
make the masses of American Jews
believe that "the Federal Govern
nent will take Gaze Of everything"
and there is no need for their mass
protest.
In Germany, it is the united forces
OF the workers that are the only ef-
fectiYe force against Hitlers Fas~
cism, and in America, 1t is the Jew
ish and Gentle workers who must
support their class comrades in Ger
many by organizing huge wave Ct
mass protest throughout the United
States, against the murders, torture
and kidnapping Of Jews by Hitler
Nazi squads.

words, refused to have anything to
