with Senator Pat Harrison, but he
plays with all the members of the club.
"a few months ago he hit good
tee shot on the first hole and took a
spoon from his bag. He whaled away
into the ball and it wound up in the
bottom of the cup for an eagle deuce.
Not every man can hit the ball far
enough to reach that green in two shots,
and only once before had it been made
In two. Now Mr.. Allen is in the select
class with Senator Harrison, for the
Senator also made deuce on that hole.

NEW YORK.-The most famous
bootlicker in Tammany's long history
today officially begins his duties as
Mayor Of New York City. At the in
duction ceremony of John O'Brien
early today will be the leading poll
teal grafters and many office
holding hencfmen. And in their
presence, O'Brien will pledge solemnly
to retain the Tammany crooks in
office and observe to letter all the
DEGREES of the mightiest banking
group in the world.
O'Brien's political career already is
dotted with deliberate and abomin-
able crimes against the working class.
From the time OF affiliating himself
with Tanmany thirty-five years ago,
O'Brien began to win the steady
favor and admiration Of the political
bosses for his adroit skill in pro-
tecting the interests of the plundererS
and combating the protests and or
ganized movements OF the workers
Republican Too.
So sstutely had he carried order
after order OF the Wall Street barons
that ten years ago the major poll
tical wings Of American capitalism
the Democrats and Republicans
broke all party lines To back him as
a candidate for high public office.
This is a cold fact which today the
capitalist and social-fascist news
papers-from the New York Times
down to the yellow New Leader-take
care TO conceal from the workers.
Muphy's Co Between
OBrien first came TO the public
limelight during the administration
OF John F. Hylan. The Democratic
boss of that time, the late Charles F.
Murphy, needed a loyal servant to
convey his instructions from the
Tammany wigwam to the Mayor in
City Hall. OF all the party faithfuls
at his command, Murphy singled out
OBrien as Just the man for this Job.
Subsequently, Murphy had O'Brien

NEW YORK.--A mass demonstra-

on January Z, will mark the high
point Of a campaign being waged By
the United Front Committee for the
liberation of the political prisoners
In Italy. The Committee was or
ganiyed some three months ago under
auspices of the International Labor

The object Of the demonstration
is to expose the latest manuevers of
the Fascist dictatorsllips, which is
masking unbrindled victimization and
brutal imprisonment Of Communist
and other working class fighters, be-
hind the so-called amnesty" decree
which will hberate minor political
offenders, and will permit the return
Of exiled members OF the socialist
liberal opposition with whom Mus
solini Is seeking a re-approachment.
At the same time, the demonstra-
ton will demand immediate and un-
conditional release of the true enem-
les OF fascisnl, the hundreds Of work
ing-class fighters now serving long
terms in Fascist prisons.
A series of preliminary meetings
will take place prior to January z,
in upper Bronx, Lower Bronx, Har-

NEW YORK.-The laundry work

HAIL SHOCK BRIGADER IN u. S. S. r. AS
CENTRAL FIGURE OF FIVE>YEAR PLAN
in
ROLE OF FOREIGN
WORKERS TOLD
Big Achievements in
Aiding 5-Yr. Plan

MOSCOW, Jan. 2 (By Ra-
dio) Among the millions Of
Soviet shock brigaders who
celebrated Jan. 1, Udarnik
(shock. brigader) Day, an hon
orable place was occupied by many
foreign workers ard specialists, AM
ericans, Germans, English, etc. In
the course Of the four years of he
roic struggle for the Five-Year Plan
they have absorbed the spirit OF the
Soviet Workers and have learned to
identify their own interests with
those of the factory and the tasks
of socialist construction.
In many industrial centers foreign
shock brigaders play a prominent
role in production. Led by Morris
Hauf, American shock worker and as
SiStant chief Of production methods
of the Bureau Of Foreign Shock Brig
aders at the Electrozayod plant in
Moscow, they have succeeded in es-
tablishing an experimental workshop
of the most modern type, where they
have developed number OF valuable
inventions and naturalization meth
ods. In the Dzerzhinski locomotive
repair shop at Voronezh foreign
workers plugged hard and showed
the proper tempo in applying meth
DDS used in American shops.
The naturalization proposals Of 386
foreign shock brigaders in Leningrad,
of 1&6 at the Kharkov tractor plant
and Of the foreign workers and spe-
cialists In Voronezh, Stalingrand,
Kuznetsk, Dnieprostroy, ETC., have
brought about large economies in
production. In Leningrand alone
$4,000 rubles have been saved during
the last three months.
Thomas Monger, of the Hammer
and Sickle steel NIL in Moscow, Frank
Honey, Of the Stalingrand tractor
works, George Mcdowell, of the
Verblud State Farm, Leibhard, a
German inventor, the foreign advis-
ers at the Dnieprostroy power sta
ton and number OF others have
been given the highest awards, the
Order of Lenin and the Red Banner,
for notable work in building Soviet
industry and agriculture and in
transferring their experience to So
Wet workers.
The enthusiasm animating many
foreign workers and specialists is best
described by quoting Frank Honey's
letter in the Moscow Daily News:
"I have tried to do my utmost to
help the russian workers and peas
ants finish the first Five-Year Plan
in four years and will do my utmost
in the second Five-Year Plan"

editorial showing the tremendous his

states:
Having successfully ACCOMPLISHED
the program OF the first Five Year

dedicates the first day of the
second five-year program for the
construction Of classics society to

Teachers Board of Retirement.
O'Brien held that disability claims
should be denied to teachers in New
York City suffering from such acute
illness as pneumonia. However,
O'Brien made it plain that his
opinion was not designed TO include
the officials of the Board of Educa-
ton. These Board of Education Of
ficials also were Tammany politicians
and O'Brien wanted them to benefit
from the money raised for the Re-
tirement and Disability Funds.
To Get s35O,00o
Having firmly established his value
as tool of big business, O'Brien was
groomed for higher office, Boss Mur-
ply, Wall Streets Democratic spokeS-
man In New York City, went into
conference with Samuel Koenig, the
Republican chief, in August, 1922,
regarding O'Brien's future. Shortly
thereafter, it was announced that
OBrien was the choice Of both the
Democratic and Republican chiefs for
the office of Surrogate at salary
which would net him $780, 900 during
his tenure on the bench. Boss Muir
phys death found O'Brien as faith
full as ever to the Wall Street in
terests.
The Trickest
II was not an accident, therefore,
that Tammany Hall, faced by resent
ment and the growing militancy Of
the workers over the astounding ex-
posures of graft and corruption,
picked its trickiest and most ex-
perienced servant to continue the
work OF fleeing the working masses
Of the city. Tammany Hall knew
that Republican Boss Koenig, who
had already given his wholehearted
support to O'Brien, would only go
through the motions of opposing this
maneuver.
F'~ short time as Corporate n
Counsel, OBrien played to perfection
the role Of a demagogue. He feigned
clashes with the traction gang and

workers. He did this by going to
the Board of Estimate and asking for
increases in salary for all the heads
of departments under his jurisdiction.
These heads we're all Tarnmany stall
warts. The scores of underpaid
white collar workers we're left out In
the cold. O'Brien did not think the
clerks, stenographers, and bookkeep-
ers were entitled to living wage,
although it was the millions extorted
from the workers in New York which
were used to fatten the pocketbooks
of the Democratic politicians.
One of O'Brien's most vicious blows
at the workers was struck in legal
opinion he handed down to the
