STATE DEMANDS
MOOSE FOR
49,
.., LANSON

SAN JOSE, Cal, June 8
U.N.SO O.-There will be no COM
promise in the Stanford campus
bathtub Staying of Allene Thorpe
LamSon.
The moose will be demanded
for David A. Lamson, University
Publishing House executive,
charged with beating his young
wife to death in their campus
nome, Memorial Day, because she
was deaf to his affectionate en-
treaties.
And, figuratively, the States
anticipated rope is a strand Of
ribbon, which, investigators
claim, formerly encircled the
piece of iron pipe found in a
fire tended by Lamson in his
garden.
Those declarations came from
the District Attorneys Office
today as the prosecution whipped
its case into order to present at
Lamson's preliminary hearing
here next Wednesday.
Authorities say the 1Q-inch pipe
used to bash in the head of
the former Stanford beauty was
a ribbon spool of Mrs. Lam
sons.
Thus they believe they can
establish "premeditation and
malice aforethought, the two
necessary elements for a first
degree murder conviction-a
hanging verdict.
They contend that the crime
was planned - that Lamson
thought of the weapon" used by
his wife for the innocent pur-
pose of spooling ribbons; that
he obtained it to kill Mrs. Lam
son, and then bludgeoned her
to death in her bath.

M'CARL BLASTS CASH HOPES

Employees of Uncle Sam who
receive part of their pay in the
form of board and lodging have
received a final blow to their
hopes for reduction of the
charges made against them for
such allowances in a ruling by
Comptroller General j. r. McCarl.
The ruling is in reply to
communication from the Vet
Grams Administration, VIII &c h
pointed out that living costs
have declined 21.7 per cent since
1923, and that the scale for
quarters, subsistence and laundry
was fixed in December, 1927.
The question was raised whether
the charge made by the Govern
ment on these counts might not
be reduced by Is per cent, or
some comparable amount.
The Washington times., 1933-06-09

The Adm 'niStration suggested
a procedure which would give the
employe more actual money, and
would reduce allowance values
to a fair figure. There would be
no promotions and no increase
in the budget.
The ruling is that this pro-
cedure cannot be adopted be-
cause the administrative officers
have no power to fix salaries ex-
cept at rates prescribed under
the classification system.

Party Leadership Bears Full
Responsibility
This situation in our work, for which the
L WHOLE PARTY LEADERSHIP BEARS
FULL RESPONSIBILITY, makes it the iron
revolutionary duty of the Party to carry out
a decisive turn in work in most speedy
way, in view of the tremendously rapid devel-
opnlent OF the crisis and the growing revolu-
tionary advance.
OWING to the change in the administration,
" the American bourgeoisie was in a position
to spread among broad masses of workers tenn
porary illusions of approaching improve
ment in their situation But the depth and
tempo of the economic crisis have established
favorable conditions for a speedy unmasking
of the policy of the parties of the bourgeoisie
Roosevelt is continuing Hoovers policy against
the working class and other laboring masses in
an intensified form, ushering in his term with
bitter attacks Imitation, reduction of salaries
of government employees, reduction in veter-
ans allowances, the Allotment Plan, forced
labor and authorization of unemployed work.
ers, the sales tax, etc..
The radicalized workers, who had their bitter
experience with the Republicans, are now we'll
on the way to meeting with the same expert
from the second traditional party of fl
nance capital namely, the Democrats and the
movements among the workers against robber
measures are bound to increase. The poor
farmers and the ruined middle farmers who
only yesterday voted for the bourgeois parties
are, in fact, already taking the path of strug-
gle against the policy carried on by these par
ties and are constantly intensifying their eff
forts to attain an independent policy Thus
as result of the development of the crisis
which is characterized not only by "a rapid ex-
tension of the labor movement, but also by
widespread movement among the petty bour-
geoisie, we find far-reaching mass movement
of workers, farmers and other middle elements
which is directed against the old bourgeois par
ties, and against the government, and which is
growing continually stronger.
THE American bourgeosie which fears de-
Il veopment of great class struggles and clashes,
is already making attempts to block this devel-
opment. It is no mere chance that the Socialist
Party with the calling of the so-called Continen-
tai Congress, is developing the greatest activity
they have shown for years, that the Musteites
are ntenslfylng to very marked degree their
activity especially among the American sections
of the working class, and that at the same time
efforts and tendencies are coming to light in the
direction of organizing a Farmer Labor Party
and that various reformist, fascist and semi
fascist organizations among the unemployed
farmers, etc., are springing up all over the coun-
try. On the one hand the bourgeoise is attempt
ing with the help of the reformists to establish
all kinds of rallyng centers for intercepting the
dislusioned masses, and to set up barriers
against Communism. On the other hand, and at
the same time, the bourgeoisie is intensifying
direct terrorism and provocation against the

Main Link Execution of Correct
Policy

EVERY Party member must now understand
~ that it depends correct policy and above
all, the execution of the correct policy, whether
will be able to mobilize the masses of workers
for struggle and whether our Party, in this his
torically favorable situation, will become the de-
cisive mass Party of the American proletariat,
or whether the bourgeoisie with the help of its
socialfascist and fascist agents will succeed in
disorganizng the mass movement and keeping it
down. Never before was the situation in the
country so favorable for the development of the
Communist Party into real revolutionary mass
Party But from this it follows also that failure
of the Party to understand its chief task-namely
to become rooted in the decisive industrial
tiers, in the important big factories-never before
represented such great danger for the fulfilment
of our revolutionary tasks whole.
NyTHY IS IT THAT THE PARTY ADOPTS RES
w OLUTIONS SUCH IS WE'RE ADOPTED
AT THE XIV PLENUM OF THE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE, AND DOES NOT CARRY THEM
OUT? Why is it that we do not learn from our
experiences and mistakes in strikes, trade union
and factory work. and from our work among the
part-tme workers and unemployed? Why is it
that the leading bodies of the Party do not con-
centrate the full forces of the Party to help the
comrades in practical way in their difficult but
most important Party work, namely work in big
factories, enabling them to overcome all the diff
clilties in this work? Why is it that the entire
Party, from top to bottom, is not working to
determine the best ways and means for estab-
fishing contacts with the most important sections
of the workers. learning to overcome their preju-
dlces, speak language they understand and
persistently and patiently help them to organize
the struggle against hunger? Why is it that the
Communist fractions in the revolutionary unions
do not make concrete investigation of the weak
nesses in the work of the revolutionary trade
unions in order to overcome these weaknesses?

THE refolnists and especially the Musteites
L are attempting in the most active manner to
paralyze the influence of the Communists by
their own activity which is directed also toward
the organization of a Farmer Labor Party AS
opposed to our policy, namely alliance of the
proletariat with the poor farmers and ruined
middle farmers under the hegemony of the pro-
letariat and struggle for the revolutionary way
out of the crisis,-they are putting forward their
policy, namely: policy which goes in the direc-
ton of establishing Farmer-Labor Party, in
which the workers become an appendage to the
petty bourgeoisie and the petty bourgeoisie be-
come an appendage to the bourgeosie, and for
democratic methods of struggle.
