Greeting to New Nazi

DUBLIN, Oct 30.-Marring and
oyershadowing the cordial welcome
by the de Valera government to the
new Nazi Minister, Wilhelm Won
Kuhlmann, yesterday, was the dem
onstration of the Irish workers for
the release of Ernst Thaelmann,
imprisoned leader of the German
working class, and against the Hit
Ter butcher regime.
From the moment the Fascist Won
Kuhlmann left Dublin Castle until
he was whisked away, very much
disturbed, in an official car, the
workers of Dublin flung into his
face the demand that Thaelmann
and all other anti-fascist prisoners
in Germany be released.
A worker rushed up to Won Kuhl-
mann as soon as he walked out of
Dublin Castle and presented him
with petition demanding the re-
lease OF Ernst Thaelmann. An Irish
cop tore the petition out of his
hand and saved the Nazi this en-

Go to Soviet Polls Next Month
MOlOtov Tells How IL
Years Have Made a
New Electorate

MOSCOW, Oct. 80 CBy Wireless)
Reminding the workers Of the
world Of the great difference in sig
nificance between Soviet and CAPT
talist elections, v. M. Molotov
chairman of the Council of Peoples
Commissars, in an article in Izvestia
discusses the significant change in
the composition of the new Soviet
electorate and dwells on the fact
that new peasantry and new
class of intellectuals has been born
out of II years Of proletarian die
tatorship.
Since Socialist forms have oc-
cupied dominant position through
out the national economy, not only
workers and employees in the So
Wet state but also peasants on the
collective farms have become the
direct builders of Socialist society,""
writes Molotov.
THE Soviet elections, when their
tasks are thoroughly explained,
when at the same time vertical
ton Of the work of all Soviets is
conducted, as well as verification
of the relations toward them on the
part of the toilers-these elections
will serve as the most important
lever for further raising the role of
the Soyiets in the construction o
socialism.
90,0OO,OOO win Vote
"At this years elections 100000
voters will be able to participate.
This alone eloquently speaks of the
significance of Soviet democracy.
The main basis of the achievements
of the Soviet regime are the
achievements of the dictatorship of
the proletariat of the U. S. S. r.,
climaxed in the Communist lead
ership of our Party.
Soviet Elections Are Glass Elections
THE elections to Soyiets in GER
tain external features are sometimes
compared with elections to bourgeois
parliaments. Essentially these are
altogether different matters. Or
dinarily now no one argues, not
even persons hostile to Communism,
concerning the class nature and pro-
letarian essence of the Soviets.
There can be no question of any
group hostile to the Soviet regime
daring openly to show it's nose dur
ing the new Soviet elections. This
in no way frees us from the obliga-
ton to resist anti-Soviet attempts
of the enemy and to expose at
tempts to put in the Soviets alien
nonrelieble elements who use the
liberal phrases of all opportunists.
Our task lies in this, that the
very composition Of the Soviets re-
news and replenishes the loyal die
tatorship of the proletariat with
new activists, especially from the
men and women workers among
the collective farmers, from the COL
lective farm youth and from the
non-Party masses. The confidence
of the masses towards the Soviets
as organs of struggle for the COM
plete liquidation of the remnants
of bourgeois classes and classes
generally must be further raised,
and the Soviets become more close
ly connected with the masses.
Marching under the banner of
these tasks and widely developing
self-criticism in the struggle
against short comings in the work
OF the Soviets means marching un-
der the banner of Lenin and Stain,
marching forward without waver-
ings against any and all enemies of
the working class, genuinely fight
ing for the victory of Communism, :"

tional Release Committee has reli-
able information from Berlin that

about commencing the trial of
Ernst Thaelmann, although the

With Writ

Victims of the Roosevelt Perkins
drive against the foreign born, a
trainload of deportees, many of
them picked up because of their
militant strike activity on the West
Coast, we're herded on Ellis Island
under guard on Monday, to await
deportation.
Two of the workers, John Ujick
from Tacoma, Wash, who had come
on the deportation train, and Chris
Popoff, who has been on the island
for As days, were put into solitary
confinement yesterday by Mr..
Forman, an immigration official, for
taking up collection among the
new arrivals to buy tobacco and
other small items for the old de-
portees.
One of the workers, Ray Carlson,
a Swedish worker from Tacoma,
Wash, who had been active in the
International Labor Defense there,
was temporarily saved from de-
portation by writ of habeas corpus
obtained by the Committee for the
Protection of the Foreign Born.
The trainload of workers had
been picked up all along the way
from Seattle to New York. Among
the deportees are several militant
strikers who were ordered deported
for their activity in the great ma
rim strike on the West Coast.
The prison train had barred win
dows which the workers were not al
lowed to open. Uniformed federal
officers kept the deportees in close
quarters.
Among the deported workers is
Oscar Mannisto of Astoria, Ore,
leader of the Finnish workers. He
has been in this country for more
than 25 years. He was forced to
leave his wife and three children
behind.
