A Splendid Example

THE DAILY WORKER greets the recent
l decision of the Executive Council of
the Buffalo aircraft strikers to establish
Press Committee which will gather true,
undistorted news of the strike every day
and send this news to our paper.
A leaf1et issued by the Press Committee states
that the accounts written about the strike in various
local and national boss-controed papers are care
fully written to discredit U.s." The only true work.
ers reports will appear in the Daily Worker it de-
clares To counteract the boss lies, the Committee
plans to distribute at first 300 copies of the Daily
Worker every day.
The strike of the aircraft workers has aroused
admiration and sympathy among workers, farmers
and inteectuals throughout the country. Even
greater support can be won if the true news of this
heroic battle is spread. This, the Daily Worker
gladly and proudly undertakes.
Cur greetings to the aircraft strikers Hold your
ranks solid! The support Of class-conscious work
ers everywhere is yours until your struggle ends

The Lion and the Lamb

THE lion, having made fat feast on the
L flesh of his victim, comes forward as
its protector and saviour.
Roosevelt, having for one year worked
hand in glove with the biggest Wall Street
monopolies to gouge the workers, farmers,
and small producers, now has the gall to
strut forward as the defender and protector Of the
masses under the N.R.A.
A dispatch from Washington Tuesday stated:
Assurance came today to the little business
man and the consumer, that though the Darrow
board dies in nine days, President Roosevelt him
self will take up the burden of protecting them
under the N.R.A"
The Darrow Board was created by Roosevelt I'M
der pressure of resentment against the MIRA.
The Darrow Board blasted the lies and hypocrisy
Of Roosevelt about the NRAq and revealed with
triple brass proof that the Roosevelt government
is the agent and tool Of the Wall Street onopolies
stranging the small producer and robbing the con-
sumner.
And now the chief the leader of this gang of
capitalist crooks, offers himself to the victim as
protector!
If the lamb placed itself in the jaws of the lion
it could find much protection as the consumer
and small producer in the hands of Roosevelt.

Tomorrow, this world-famous case of
nine innocent Negro boys fighting for
their lives against the frame-up of CEN

in it's three-year fight before the Alabama
Supreme Court
Tomorrow the last Decatur lynch verdict will
be appealed by the attorneys Of the International
Labor Defense.
The Alabama Supreme Court is lynchers' court.
It will gladly do the bidding Of its Southern planta-
ton masters.
In this Court sits Judge Knight, father Of that
Prosecutor knight who wr1ng the Decatur death
verdict from poisoned jury, with malignant
frenzy Of race hatred.
If it Is not stopped this Alabama Court will
doom the nine boys to death. There is only one
thing that can stop it, the force that alone has
kept the boys alive, out Of the hands OF the exc
cutioner-the force of mass protest, If this mass
protest if this mass vigilance is relaxed for one
single moment, the lynchers will take their toll OF
the boys lives as surely as tiger leaps to the kill
What each and every one of us does at this
moment will, in the aggregate determine the final
fate of the nine Scottsboro boys
kilograms should be rushed at once to Governor
Miller of Alabama, to the Alabama Supreme Court

GuardAgainstL Labor Board
ManenVerS!

IN TRUE Hitler dictatorial fashion the
Minneapolis Regional Labor Board, on
instructions from the National Labor
Board, ordered the Minneapolis truckers,
and $4,000 building trade workers sup
porting them, to stop their struggle.
When victory is within the grasp of the
workers the government uses the National Labor
Board as club to knock it out of their hands
24-hour truce has been signed. The truce is
a maneuver to give the bosses breathing spell
in order to work out their tactics ultimately to
smash the unity and miltancy of the workers.
In this critical moment every worker in Min
neapolis should use his energy to resist the EFFORTS
Of the Regional Labor Board by their mandatory
and fascist-like policies, under the guse Of ar
bitration, to defeat the strike.
Hundreds of thousands of steel and coal strikers
have learned to their great detrnent and loss that
the usual procedure of the National and Regional
Labor Boards is to use the slogan Of arbitration to
get strikers back to work without granting their
demands The object is to break the strike organi-
cation by promises of arbitration. When the work
ers have returned and are in the power OF the
Bosses then all of the promises as in Werton Steel
Ford Budd and in the auto strike) are shamelessly
violated.
THE only basis on which the Minneapolis strike
should be settled is the unconditional granting of
the workers demands.
The Minneapolis workers have the power to
force through their demands. The entire working
class of the city is behind them. The government
and the bosses know that the workers in posi-
ton to win all Of their demands and for that reason
they drive in the strikebreaking wedge Of the Ma
tional and Regional Labor Boards.
In all of these maneuvers of the bosses and their
government, their most important betraying link is
the TOP A. F. of L. bureaucracy, as well as the top
Farmer-Isbor leaders In the heat of battle these
ackeys try to appear "militants in the struggle
only to be in better position at the critical moment
to misead it,
Minneapolis workers, do not let any one cheat
you of the victory which you have so valiantly
fought for You can win your demands! Reject
The arbitration betrayal of the National and Re
gionaI Labor Boards Return to work only when
all your demands are granted!

Even Faxed Election
Shows Rising Fight
Against Fascism
Especial to the Daily Worker


BERLIN, CVia underground route)
Factory elections for Confidence
Councils" recently held in Fascist
Germany under the new National
Labor Law" we're an open defeat for
the Nazis. After reviewing the re-
suits of these elections" there can
be no further doubt that Hitler has
against MIN the decisive strata of
the, rank and file of the German
workers.
The proletarians have demonstra-
ted their fighting solidarity with the
Communist Party Of Germany, the
deadly enemy of fascism.
Reports come from factories and
shops that the workers bravely
wrote manv revolutionary slogans
on their ballots. They utilized these
papers not only to express their pro-
test against the confidence coun-
cillors" chosen by the bosses, but TO
show their objections on principle
to fascism. A slogan which occurred
with special frequency was:
Release Thaelmann, the leader
of the German workers."
In several works and factories in
Berlin the pressure exercized by the
workers was so powerful that the
employers list of functionaries had
to be withdrawn. This was, for in
stance. the case in the Apparatus
Manufactures Heilmann. Berlin
Britt.
In the Osram Works only 2.283

ticipation rose to 95 per cent. 1t is
stated that "a per cent Yes votes
we're cast. The 16 per cent spoilt
votes correspond to 225 votes.
Volkswohl Insurance Co., IT'S Yes
and It's No votes from 500 workers.
The remainder were spoilt votes.
1t need not be emphasized that
there was no real election, no secret
vote. During the last few weeks
fascist terrorism has been redoubled
in the workshops and factories.
In dozens of cases workers have
been searched when coming to
work, by Storm Troopers and Guard
Corps men and by the police. Dozens
of class conscious workers we're dis
missed before the election, many of
them arrested At the Henningsdorf
rolling mill the polling booth was so
constructed that the election leader
could see at any moment If the
voter was altering the list or writ
ing on it. All workers we're searched
for seditious literature on the day
of the election. At the Phoenix
booth too the election was more or
less publicly carried out. Similar
reports come from many other un-
dertakings.
The falsifications of the results
have been unlimited. To take only
one example, the gramophone rec
ord factory Cristallate: $50 votes
we're cast, and after the election it
was stated that the voting had
passed off in order and all the can
didates we're unanimously elected.

looked at one another in amaze
ment, and dropped their re-

missal and starvation, but concen-
tration camp. In spite of this, 80
workers stated that they had sent
in crossed out voting papers.
The Schwertfeger results stated
that $50 votes cut Of $40 were Yes
votes. The workers themselves are
fully aware that this is pure swindle.
In many cases no results what
ever have been announced, simply
the official notification: the list has
been elected with q small majority!
A number of important firms: Sic
mems Radio, Wolf g. Meter Schone-
weide. Hentschel- Johannisthal, ETC..
have not published any results as
yet.
1t is not for nothing that the
state press centre has issued strict
instructions, on Goebbels' orders,
that no newspaper is to publish the
results of the confidence council
elections. This shows clearly that
these authorities regard the election
as a severe reverse.
The results of the confidence
council elections are a thousand
times more important to us than
those of any other vote - for in
stance. the so-called plehiscite of
18th November-for here the class
concerned is the proletarian class,
the sole class anti-fascist and revo-
lutionary to the end. These results
proclaim the rising revolutionary
wave, and prove that fascism will
never demoralize or subjugate the
working class as such, much less
conquer it. The core of the Ger
man proletartat remains anti-fascist
and anti-capitalist.
