The Same Master

THE other day the Tammany hack Mayor O'Brien
made speech accepting his boss, Curry's, nonna-
ton for Mayor.
At the same time, the great knight OF So-called
anti Tammany reform, LaGuardfa also made speech
These two candidates being trundled before the
citys population political opponents.
And yet their two speeches yesterday revolved per-
sStently about thought-to protect and guarantee
the investments and Wall Street. of the Rookie
felIer-M Morgan bankers!
OBren boosted of his maintaining the citys
credit"
LaGuards, with open agents Of the Morgan banks
running his campaign for him, his full support
to the recent infamous Untermyer agreement with
the banks. Under this agreement the city government
borrowed millions from the bankers in order to pay
off millions OF loans to the bankers thereby increas
ing still further the bountain Of interest
payments
1t is precisely the Untermyer agreement, supported
by, and binding on, every candidate In the coming
elections, except the Communist candidate, Robert
Minor, who would tear 1t up the first day he took
office, that will make it necessary for the capitalist
city government to raise taxes still further cut civil
service wages and increase taxesi
Just like every capitalist candidate, like Tammany
like Mckee, like Solomon IaGuardia raised his hands
in horror of default" the payments to the Rookie
feller- Morgan bankers.
Both OBrien and LsGuardia maintained deep
silence the proposal Of the Communist candidate
Robert Minor to levy 10 per cent tax the boarded
fortunes Of the Wall Street miIonares heavier taxes
the rich real estate magnates and cancellation
all taxes small home owners
On the five-cent fare both O'Brien and LaGuardia
made the same fervent and hypocritcal promises.
Neither of them revealed that the city has an I'M

has been made publican agreement that binds

So yesterdays speeches revealed both LaGuarda and

Enroll Communist!

IN the next two days the workers of New York have
very serious duty to perform.
There are only two days left in which to register
for the November elections
Without registering worker can vote.
And without voting for the Communist candidate
Robert Minor it will be impossible TO register the
protest of the working class against the starvation and
oppression of the capitalist city government
But there is also another for registering.
Next year, in 1884 the election committees Of each
party will be elected.
And only enrolled voters enrolled voting for the
Communist Party will be permitted to choose the Par
ty's candidates.
To keep the Party election machinery in our own
hands we must enroll as Communist voters
Every worker must do that. To enroll as Com
muniSt voter, does not that you joining the
Party 1t that you registering your protest
against the Wall Street bankers rule of the city that
you fighting for relief from the yoke of capital
ist city government.
Registration ends Saturday night! Comrades, work
ers, do your duty! ENROLL COMMUNIST!

American Concern
Asks Intervention
by U. S. in Cuba
Wants Government to
Act Against Peril
of Bolshevism"

The persistent propaganda OF
American manufacturers and e1-
port firms for armed U. s. inter
yention in Cuba has been carried
on below the surface, but the let
ter from the American Writing
Paper Company to Under Secre-
tary of State Jefferson Caffrey,
published below, is a danger signal
to the American workers.
The workers will be summoned
by Wall Streets Washington ad-
ministration to shed their blood in
Cuba for the greater profits OF
American capitalists--unless they
unite in one solid mass to enforce
their demand: Hands Off Cuba!
The letter follows
Sept. Is, 1888,
Letter No. 1923.
Hon. jefferson Caffrey,
Department of State,
Washington, D. G.
Dear Sir: From all the news which
we have received, both by letters
and from highly placed visiting Gu
bans and Americans, it is obvious
that the situation in Havana is moi
that of an ordinary Latin-Americar
revolution, but is actually Bolshevism
This is a condition which must moi
be allowed to exist because the longer
it is temporized with, the more diff
cult it will be to handle. Commu-
nistic government once established
in the Western Hemisphere will lead
to emulation in other Latin-Ameri-
can countries, whose governments are
not too strong.
The Cuban situation then consti-
tutes today a danger for all, and Il
the true facts were presented to theil
authorities, feel that they can not
only be persuaded to countenance the
American intervention which be-
comes more imperative every day
but that they will even join us ir
the statement to the effect that they
will unite with us to prevent any Boil
shevist government obtaining foot
held anywhere in the Western
Hemisphere.
AS yet the Red character in Cubar
affairs has not yet been officially
presented to the American people
Privately, however, more are learning
of true conditions every day and they
are wondering why our government
hesitates to present the true fact!
which it must know, and which lln.
doubtedly inspired the extraordinary
show of naval strength which WI
already made.
IF these facts were presented, thu
true character of those who are op-
posing intervention would be shown
and the way opened for the backing
of the American people when OIL
government can no longer refrain
from intervening.
Your very truly,
