DEMOCRATS SET
FOR TAX FIGHT

Democratic members of the
Montgomery county delegation to
the Maryland legislature will in.
troduce their own delinquent tax
measure in opposition to the one
Of Walter Dawson, Republican
member Of the county.
It was indicated, however, that
Dawson stole a march on his op-
ponents who have not yet united
on a delinquent tax law. Some
concern was also felt when it was
learned that Dawson's measure
was referred to the ways and
means committee instead of to
the Montgomery county delega'
tion.
Although Lacy Shaw, head of
the county commissioners, would
make no comment today on the
attitude Of county leaders, 1t is
understood that the Democratic
measure will provide for tax pay
ments in two instalments, reduc.
ton of tax fees from So to IS and
delay of tax sales from April to
June. The entire delinquent tax
problem is to be fought out at a
meeting February 10, of precinct
chairmen and county delegates. >

trial on charges of embezzlemerlt
F. Barnard WEIGH, counsel foI
the defense, called upon Walker
to identify many checks, vouchers,

done in an endeavor to prove that
Clark did not sign his own re

one check amounted to $3.50,

bered smaller sums.
More character witnesses were

clerk.

was put on the stand as a de

The Clark attorneys, led by F.
Barnard Welsh, barraged Prescott
with questions.
Welsh asked Prescott:
From whom did you receive
Clark'S personal checkS?"
The checks were offered in evi.

"They were brought before the
Grand Jury by Mr.. Bond"
"WhO is Mr.. BOnd?"
AS his own attorney, prompting
himself ON the witness stand, Pres
colt objected to the question and
saw the objection sustained.
Valves Objection
Later, as attorney-witness, he
waived the objection, and told the
jury all about Mr. Bond, who had
made an audit Of the Clark rec.
ordS. Prescott also explained, as
attorney, why Bond was not called
as witness in the trial. He said:
Because Bond can throw no
light on the present Ease. The
checks speak for themselves. Mr..
Bond could only add up the to-
tails. The jury itself can do
that" ..-- .....s

Growing Struggles Against Capital
list Attack.
The workers of the United States
are beginning to realize this basic
truth more and more. The workers
of the United States have been ad-
yancing against capitalism in ever
greater forces. Last year has wit
missed an increasing number of
struggles on various fronts. The
miners repeatedly went on strike
against wage cuts and for better
conditions. The automobile workers
for the first time in the history of
this country actually succeeded in
tying up, the industry through a
powerful strike movement. The
needle workers, particularly the fur
riers, have made a strong stand
dSd1Ilob IllClI UOSScS anu have Sc
cured better wages and union con-
troll over many shops. The workers
of many other trades have struck
against wage-cuts. The farmers not
only organized a broad strike move
ment, but came into repeated
clashes with the armed forces of
the State. The veterans marched on
Washington in great militant body
that threw the entire Federal gov
eminent into confusion. The mill
tant workers organized great ma
tional hunger march and innum-
cradle demonstrations and local
hunger marches in fight for relief
and unemployment insurance. The
shareeroppexs Of the South, most
Of them Negroes, have organized q
special union and arc fighting
against the explotters. The farm
err conference called in Washing
ton was witness to the growing mil
itancy Of ths farming masses to
fight against the lynchers and for
full equality for the Negroes, inclu-
ding self determination In the
Black Belt

ton Of the available funds TO feed
the hungry, 1t squeezes the life
blood out of the masses to produce
more ammunition, to organize big
ger armies for the coming world
slaughter.
The workers have nothing TO lose
but their chains. Capitalism has
outlived itself. Capitalism has to be
replaced by Socialism where there
is no private property on either
lands or mines, or factories or rail-
roads, where there is not exploita-
ton Of man by man, where every
body shares the fruit of collective
labor, where classes have been abol-
ished and life has been lifted to
great heights. Capitalism must be
replaced by the system of work for
common use and not for profit. Cap
italism has developed vast possibili-
ties of production which cannot be
used under the system of private
property, which, however, under the
system of Socialism, can be devel-
oped tremendously so as to assure
everybody real human living.
The Soviet Union, now in the 10Th
year Of its existence, is the only
bright spot in the world picture OF
today. While the capitalist world is
sinking deeper into the morass Of
deterioration, the Soviet State, hav-
ing abolished unemployment, Is ris-
ing ever higher, rapidly increasing
production, raising agriculture to
new high levels, organizing large
scale collective farming, improving
the situation OF the workers, caring
for their health, education and re-
creation, making life worth living
for every toiler. Tho Soviet Un-
ion il the only country where the
workers are the real masters OF
their destinies and where they are

working class solidarity, day of uni
ted struggle against capitalist ex-
ploitation and war, finds capitalism
broken down and in a state of de-
cav.
Boosted mass production of capt
talist industries has broken down.
Factories and plants are producing
less every month; agricultural out
put is not only diminishing but
large quantities of ready food-stuffs
are being destroyed, while the farm
ers are told to produce less. Fin
ance and banking are going through
the severest crisis in history. Trade
and commerce, nationally and in
ternationally, are half destroyed.
All the economic machinery of cap
italism is disorganized, dilapidated,
approaching ruin. In the United
States, this richest country in the
world, the breakdown of production,
exchange, credit and currency is
more pronounced than in any other
country. The boosted strength of
American capitalism, said to be ex-
empt from the evils and inherent
contradictions of capitalism, has
proven to be but q miserable sham.
Fascist Terror Against the Workers.
Boosted capitalist political democ-
racy is being more and more re-
vealed as the system of carrying out
the wishes and the orders of the
ruling propertied classes as against
th e toiling masses. Capitalism
which in its heydey resorted to the
sham of democracy to maintain the
illusion of government and thus
prevent the masses from realizing
the domination Of big capital, is
more and more revealing itself as
brute force. Capitalism is becom-
ing openly terroristic. Capitalism
grasps the big club OF fascism not
only in Germany or in Poland, but
growing symptoms OF fascisrn are
evident in the United States where
beating up OF strikers, clubbing of
workers demonstrations, falling od
militant workers and farmers,
lynching of Negroes and deportation
Of foreign born workers Is used with
increasing ferocity as means of
suppressing the militancy Of the
toilers. The Roosevelt administra-
ton Is equipping the chief executive
with dictatorial powers to deal
quickly and decisively with the
masses in the interest OF Wall st.
The government Of the United
States is rapidly approaching the
fascist type.

Unite for Unemployment and Social

Unemployment insurance is tbe
great need of the day. Millions are
hungry. Capitalism has thrown
them out because the bosses cannot
make sufficient profits. The bosses
have pocketed all the wealth.

purposes, then there must be enough

Unite for Increased Wages and
Relief to Meet Higher Prices
The struggle against wage-cuts
and for the increase in wages in
order to meet the imitation prices.
Is another pressing need for which
the workers must become organized
through this May Day demenstra-
ton. The capitalists are modifying
to cut the value Of the dollar. i.e..
to pay the workers in deprecated
money which will buy fewer goods,
The workers must resist by de-
manding higher wages, more relief.
wherever such relief is being paid.
They must demand that all war
funds be used for immediate relief
and unemployment insurance.
Unite in the Struggle Against
lmperiaEst War
May Day must be day of strug-
gle against war and against war
preparations. The government is
recruiting young workers to drill
them for the future war while max
ing them work at starvation wages.
The government, in connivance
with Wall Street, is plotting for new
wars, especially against the Soviet
Union. The May Day demonstration
must raise mighty protest against
these war plans. We will resist all
capitalist wars; we will resist the
transportation OF ammunition for
the purposes of war butchery.
Socialist Leaders Prevent Unity
For these struggles the workers
must unite We know that there
are mighty obstacles in the way of
their unity-in the first place the
activities Of the leaders of the AM
erican Federation of Labor and the
leaders of the Socialist Party. 1t
is these leaders who split the ranks
OF the working class movement in
1914 when they joined the camps Of
their respective governments in the
World War instead of fighting the
capitalists in every country. 1t is
these leaders who organized the In
PREVENTION in the Soviet Union. I
is these leaders, who, being at tn
head of the German government
crushd the revolution OF 1888 and
subsequently fought against the re-
evolutionary labor movement while
protecting the counter-revolution-
airy forces and thus paving the way
for fascism. 1t Is these leaders who
do not offer any resistance to the

the present moment, abjectly bow
