AS explained by the Bureau of

BrOOkhart Given
Job to Find New
Farm Markets
Plan for Large-Scale
Barter With USSR
Outlined

WASHINGTON, May %. Elk
Senator Brookhart of Iowa, one of
the group of 'progresSives' was ap-
pointed yesterday special advisor to
the Agricultural Adjustment Admin
istration CA. A. Al where his job will
be to study methods for the "expan-
sion of markets for American farm
products especially through the
large-scale bartering of American
cotton and meat products for Soviet
goods.
Brookhart referred to himself as
a sort of Secretary of State for Rus
sian affairs" though the State De-
partment went out of its way to say
that the appointment would have no
bearing on the question of recogni-
ton, and the A. A. A. pointed out
that Brookhart had no authority to
negotiate with any foreign govern
ment." But this would not preclude
negotiations with Antorg, the cor
poration officially representing the
U. S. S. r. in New York; and the
A. A. A. in describing Brookhart's
work said He is to make studies
Of the possibilities Of expanding Am
erican markets in eastern Europe,
and if you look at the map you will
see that that includes Soviet Russia. +"
Trade Possibilities with U. S. S. r.
The new adviser expressed the be-
lief that if we had had the proper
arrangements we could have sold g.
100000 bales of cotton to Russia last
year" and added Il believe they could
take our per cent surplus of live
stock and our 80 per cent surplus of
hog products and lot of other
things" In return he suggested that
the United States could well take
Soviet wood pulp and manganese.
Brookhart also suggested that the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
could be made use of to finance Am
erican-Soviet trade credits.

MORGAN BANKS CONTINUE
DIVIDENDS AT 1929 RATES

Eight New York City banks, among
them six dominated by j. P Morgan,
have reported dividend payments for
the current year on par with those
paid at the 1929 peak The banks are:
Fulton Trust Co., Commercial Ma
tional Bank and Trust Co., Bankers
Trust Co., Central Hanover Bank 81
Trust Co.. First National Bank.
Guaranty Trust Co., New York Trust
Co., and U. S. Trust Co. All but the
first named two are controlled by
the Morgan group.
For the year 1929, seven of these
banks paid out dividends totalling
s42,5500o0 the Guaranty Trust CO.
topping the list with dividends of
S14,100o 900. This bank actually in
creased dividend payments during
the crisis years to s18,000,000 an
nually for 1880, 1881 and 1882.
The c. jal Hanover Bank and
Trust Co, increased it's annual divi-
dend payments from $7175,000 in
1929 to a yearly rate of $7,350,000
for the following three years. SINH
larly the New York Trust Co. in
creased its payments to stock hold
ers from $2,375,000 in 1929 to $500 :
0o0 for the three years that followed,
AT the same time 6,150 national
banks reported net earnings of $313,-

cent on their total capital These
dividends paid amount to $3.50, 155 900

other banks have been able to main
tain and even increase dividend pay
ments during crisis years is revealed
by the Wall Street Journal which re-
ports drastic reduction in expenses
amounting TO IA per cent in 1882 as
compared to the year before. Sal

financial mouthpiece, "have been

This is the second of series of
articles on ]. p. Morgan and Conn
pany. The third will appear to-
morrow.-Ed.
The one aspect about the Morgans
that will not be investigated by the
Senate Committee is the fact that
the Morgans are among the most
brutal slave-drivers and wage-cutters
in the entire capitalist world.
Morgan corporations have set the
pace for aggressive hostility to workers
who organize and strike. In 1901
the very first year of its existence
Morgan's U. S. Steel Corporation met
and defeated a strike for union con-
ditions called by the old Amalgama-
ted Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers. After the World War
u. S. Steel took the lead in smash
ing with most brutal tactics the great
steel strike of 1919.
In the anthracite fields, exploited
by Morgan railroad coal companies
the workers won a hard-fought bat
tie for union in 1909. Then Morgan
company officials showed how unions
can be corrupted from within and
made useless to the working class. In
the same way, the railroad unions
have served the capitalists-the Off
Gals helping to break the shoplnen'S
strike in 1922 and putting over the
railroad wage cut in 1882.
U. S. Steel subsidiaries and Gen.
eral Electric have specialized in wei
fare" as means to fool the workers
and keep them in subsection. Com

Germany Cuts Tourist
Trade as Tension
Grows

Tension between Fascist Austria
and Fascist Germany is growing min
ute by minute. The latest step in
the hostilities between Hitler and
Dolfuss is Germany's raising the fee
for tourist visa TO Austria to 1000
marks ($272). This will cut off the
large and profitable tourist trade from
Germany to Austria, and is tanta-
mount to complete blockade of
Austria.
Austria has retaliated by recalling
the Austrian Minister from Berlin.
1t is not unlikely that diplomatic re-
lations between the two countries will
be broken Off altogether.
Since Austria's purchases from
Germany exceed its sales to that
country by over So 100000 last year,
Austria is also considering placing an
embargo on all German exports.

and most of the big mills are tied up
with Morgan banks in New York or
Boston. Cigarettes are made by one
or another section of the Tobacco
Trust, also Morgan's.
In New York, Morgan and Rookie
Teller between them have tight
grip on subway systems, and electri-
city and gas. About one-haf of all
the electric current produced in the
entire country comes from companies
directly within the Morgan utility
system, and the rates we pay are
fixed way above actual cost in order
that Morgan and his clients can draw
profits on swollen capital.
Farmers who buy their clothes and
household equipment from Montgo-
merry Ward are increasing the bus
mess Of Morgan company. The
great majority of farm tractors come
from International Harvester or j. I.
Case Co., and both of these are Nor
gan controlled.
Back of these things that we buy
are the machinery and metals used
in their manufacture, and here in the
so-called heavy industry which prod
uces the means Of production Morgan
has an even more solid hold. Even
in oil, the Rockefeller domain, Nor
gan is functioning too. He controls
one company, Continental Oil Teagle,
of Standard Oil Of New Jersey, is on
the list of insiders to whom Morgan
sold stocks below the market price,
and Standard Oil of New York is
close enough to Morgan to carry a
deposit with the Morgan firm.
When the United States goes to
war to protect the Morgan interests.
the workers in the army will carry
guns made of Morgan steel and will
use munitions from Du Pont, Nor
gan ally.
Morgan wealth is drawn from the
working class both here and in other
countries. Morgan power penetrates
every phase of life in the United
States.

longshoremen were met by the Ham
burg -Amerika officials.
Pull Down Flag
The "Schwaben' North German
Lloyd also arrived in Antwerp fly
ing the Nazi flag. The longshoremen
modified on the dock and decided
TO strike if the Fascist rag" were
not pulled down. The captain was
forced to give way, in order to get

waben' was leaving the harbour she
passed the Soviet steamship "Dnei-

his crew to run up the NaZi flag,
but the crew refused The captain
bawled from the bridge - Whats

of the men were compelled TO line
up and give the Fascist salute Ger
man river boatmen, who had been
watching all this, shouted Red
Front as the "Schwaben" passed.
A strike was also called on the
Woerman steamer Uganda" which
flew the swastika. When the ships
command refused the 1ongshoremen's
ultimatum that the flag should be
taken down, the sailors and dock
workers together went ahead and
hauled 1t down themselves. When
the officers foisted it again, the
workers went on strike. Police were
called in by the ships officers, and
attacked the sailors and longshore-
men with drawn Sabres. The work
ers defended themselves with cobble
stones, and one policeman was sew
erely injured. The workers are
electing an action committee.

Morgan, Wage Cutter and Slave Driver>>>One
ASPECT the Senate Won't Investigate

since 1929. Morgan's American Tele
phone g. Telegraph system has
thrown out 10000 of the $4,000 it
was employing four years ago The
auto industry-including as its chief
unit the Morgan-DuPont General
Motors Corp.-has allowed mass I'M
employment and hunger among
workers in and around Detroit.
While federal unemployment re-
lief has been confined to less than
$3o0,0o0,000 loaned to the state relief
machines, over 700,0o0,000 of fed
eral emergency loans to banks and
railroads are now outstanding. The
Morgan firm, which paid no income
tax at all in 1881 and 1882, has bene-
flied directly from many of these
loans.
Workers Buy from Morgan Companies
Since Morgan controls corporations
representing one-sixth of the corpor-
ated wealth in the United States, we
may estimate that one-sixth of the
industrial workers in this country are
employed within the immediate Nor
gan domain. But every worker in
the country pays tribute to Morgan
corporations through the things that
he buys.
Morgan has his hand on bread and
flour, crackers, milk, and meat.
Vegetables and fruit are canned in
tins manufactured by one of two
great can companies, the American
Can Co. and Continental Can Co.,
and both of these are close to Nor
gan. Bananas and coffee are brought
from Latin America in ships dom
mated by Morgan or Morgan allies.
