The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1933-06-03

At 4:30 PetroYsky arrived, and as
the ovation given this popular leader,
who is fondly called "the elder of the
Socialist Ukraine, died down, Sofia
PerOvskaya blew a shrill whistle and
steamed into the lock, followed close
ly by 25th of October. Slowly the
gates shut behind the rear steamer,
and we were encased in a narrow
chamber Of solid concrete walls, huge
steel gates to the front and the rear
and a strip of blue sky overhead. The
people lining the edges Of the lock
above seemed far away, and some
how it was hard to believe that the
boat would ever rise to the level Of
the entrance to the second chamber.
But it began rising almost imme-
diately after the rear gates were shut.
Eight minutes later and we were
flooded up to that level The front
gates opened and the boats steamed
in. Again that sense of being en-
cased, again a feeling Of anxiety that
we might never rise or get out of
that concrete enclosure, and again
the gates opened to admit us TO the
next and last chamber.
Answering Cheers.
Meantime there was much enthGs-
iasm, shouting of slogans, and ami
mated comment on this new achieve
ment. Now and then someone on
deck would exclaim: Long live the
Communist Party with its leader
Comrade Stain. and a lusty hur-
rah came as an answer.
The masses of workers lining the
banks could not hear the words Of
the exclamation, but the accompany
ing gestures of the enthusiastic
shouter spoke for themselves and
brought a return of hurrahs also
from the distant onlookers.
Now we were in front of the last
gates that separated the boat from
the open Dnieper. 1t was a tense
moment when these gates began to
part revealing the mighty river in
its fun breadth and grandeur. Above
the gates the breeze played with a
streamer which bore the following
legend; Through navigation of the
Dnieper is a fact.
Full Speed Ahead.
From the edge of the lock came
the voice of an old boatswain: Com
rade Commander The gates are
open. The way to the Dnieper is
clear. Order full speed ahead! Long
live
Here the voice Of the old man
broke. He was overcome with emo
ton, tears appeared in his eyes. He
stepped on deck without finishing
the slogan.
The report of the boatswain that
the way was clear was followed by
long triumphant blasts from both
steamers. An orchestra ashore Joined
the ones on board in playing the IN
ternationale. From some distance
away came booms of cannon, that
passed through the lock, saluting the
hundreds of udarniks who had made
it possible to mark up another tri-
umph at Dnieprostroy

acknowledged contributions and are
not by any means the total amount
that may have been given, through
other names, of friends and relatives,
by these individuals.
The partial list given above of those
with Morgan connections who helped
elect Roosevelt president shows that
they were responsible for at least Is
per cent, or over one-sixth of the
total receipts made public by the
Democratic National Committee.
Other prominent Democrats and
supporters of the Roosevelt regime,
whose names, however, do not appear
as contributors, are shown to have
had Morgan connections:
VIM. G. McAdoo and Newton ID.
Baker, were both on the Morgan IA
vored lists Mcadoo, whose hacker
is William Randolph Hearst, who
contributed $4,000 to the Roosevelt
campaign chest, was Secretary of the
Treasury under Wilson and was a
candidate for nomination to the pres
idency on the Democratic ticket in
1920 and 1924. At present he is SEN
ator from California. He appeared
on all three of the Morgan favored
lists so far made public.
Baker, Secretary of War under Will
son, has several times been among
those rumored for nomination as
presidential candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket. Appeared on the Nor
gan favored list in the Allegheny
Corp. stock deal. He is attorney for

washing crew. He has been counsel
of a Morgan utility in its fight to
secure a power site on New River,
West Virginia, and has been counsel
of the anti-union Lake Carriers Assn,
dominated by Morgan's U. S. Steel
Corp.
Another member of Morgan's IA
vored list was Owen d. Young, prom
inent Democrat and repeatedly spoken
Of in campaign times as possible
nominee for the presidency. Young
was in on the Allegheny stock deal
and is chairman Of the board of direc-
tors of the Morgan-controlled Cen
eral Electric Co., one of the concerns
having more than 100000 on de-
post with Morgan.
Norman III. Davis, President Roose-
velts ambassador at Large abroad,
likewise profited from Morgan stock
subscription deals and was, in addi-
ton, q substantial borrower from j.
P. Morgan 81 Co. with $4,000 still
outstanding on one of his loans.
There is also Dean G. Acheson, IN
der-Secretary Of the Treasury, Wood
ms assistant in the Roosevelt admin
istration, whose law partner was also
in on the Morgan deals.

Heroes of the Five Year Plan

which have helped transform the So
Wet Union almost overnight, from a
backward country dependent on for
eign countries for almost all manu-
featured goods to an almost self-ef-
flcient country, from a land laid bare
and waste into a fruitful peaceful
land forging the historic road to So
cialism. Behind the building Of So
cialisrn, behind the overtaking and
0utstripping of capitalist countries in
the shortest time Lies the high tech
nique and labor efficiency originated
and developed by the workers them
selves.
Workers Manage Industry.
There is an often repeated he-
that workers cannot manage industry.
The facts speak for themselves. II
is In the capitalist countries that in
dustry has fallen to the lowest levels
in the history of capitalism; and 1t is
in the Soviet Union that there is no
unemployment and where industry is
rising to the highest levels in the
history Of any country.
Many debates have been waged as
to what will happen without the pro-
fit motive as an incentive to initiative.
Socialists have been particularly fond
Of this debate. 1t is not a debatable
subject. The workers of the Soviet
Union have answered.
Workers can have nothing in com
mon with capitalism. Capitalism
kills the best in workers factories
used to advertise for Hands Want
ed'O by checking their initiative, their
creative possibilities. Only work
ers' and farmers government can
free workers. It Is the workers of
the Soviet Union who are behind the
building OF socialism in the Soviet
Union
Thrilling Story.
Take 1.-THE Heroes Of Crozny''
which will grip you for its thrilling
story, and read how the Soviet Oil
Industry completed its Five Year
Plan in two and a half years. Behind
these words-Soviet oil industry-and
these figures-its Five Year Plan in
two and half years-there stand
thousands of living human beings
just like the oil workers here, who
planned, and worked, and sweated,
and stayed up nights figuring how the
job might be better done and more
quickly.
Read how these workers developed
the new socialist forms and methods
of labor out of the necessity for COM
pleting the work. Then take "The
Fight for Steel" which tells some
thing of the same story, but for the
steel industry.
Read these pamphlets and see for
yourself how In the Soviet Union the
workers, without bosses or capitalists,
have organized themselves and their
production; how that tremendous
propelling force, the initiative Of the
masses, has been utilized until today
the Soviet Union is the shock-brig-
ader Of the world proletariat, burning
the path to socialism as an acetylene
torch burns through steel.

vacancies caused by death, resigna-

other words, the labor amendments"
call for the slower strangling Of jobs
rather than the immediate, wholesale
and direct lay-offs proposed by
Roosevelt and the companies.

hood chiefs for the six-hor day to

Dor. His own spokesman do not even
bother to conceal this fact. Joseph B.
Eastman, reported as chosen by
Roosevelt or the pob of Federal Co
ordinator of Transportation, in ex-
planning the bill to the Senate, said:
To Increase Unemployment
upon one point there should be
no misunderstanding on the part Of
Congress. To very considerable ex-
tent the elimination or reduction Of
wastes will involve loss OF employ
ment to railroad labor. {. Economies
in operation and service mean reduc-
ton in labor, and there is no escape
from it. And any plan for alleviat-
ing this situation by retirement al

What does RooseYelt's railroad pro-
gram mean to the railroad worker?
II it is passed In its original form, as
approved by company spokesman and
as Democratic leaders in the House
have said they hope to push it
through, it means the laying off of
from $4,000 to 100000 workers who
still have jobs. If it is passed as
amended in the Senate, at the re-
quest of the Brotherhood leaders, it
means the freezing" of employment
at the low level of May, 1888, with
permission to the companies to re-
duce the number Of jobs by per cent

MRS. JOHN s. HALLET
HURT WHEN CAR TURTLES

Mrs. John S. Hallett was injured
on Thursday morning when the au-
tomobile in which she and her hus-
band were riding, overturned near
Lovett's Nurseries. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hallett were coming to Milford from
their cottage at Slaughter Beach
when the left rear tire blew out.
Although the car was travelling at a
speed of about thirty miles an hour
it turned over on it's right side and
the occupants were thrown heavily
against the side of the car. George
H. Draper, Jr., who came along soon
after the accident, brought Mrs. Hal
lett to the Milford Emergency Hos
pital. where treatment was given.
AS the Chronicle goes to press X-ray

was thought that the left shoulder
was fractured. The left ankle was
badly bruised and swollen, but it
was ont thought that any bones were
broken in the leg. Mr.. Hallett was
not injured other than slight shak-
ing up.

Heavy pigs fed in dry lot requir-
ed 410 pounds of corn and "a
pounds of supplement to produce
100 pounds of pork, showing that
the amount of feed required to pro-
duce 100 pounds of gain increases
somewhat as the animal becomes
more mature.
With corn advancing in price and
feed supplies generally indicating
an increased demand, the important
thing for the farmer to consider is
how much corn he can save by in
vesting in 100 pounds of good sup
plement for the feeding of his hogs.
According to the Illinois circular,
100 pounds of good supplement
saves 642 pounds of corn on light

Walking the Tight Rope might
be the opening stunt. Place a
small rope along the ground,
tightly stretched by two poles,
and the person who can run the
entire length Of the rope singing
or whistling Yankee Doodle, with
out once stepping off the rope, is
awarded a pair Of pink tights
which he must wear over his

The Flying Trapeze prize goes
to the dapper young man or
