The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-11-06

Super-structure of Negro life. =.
Negro labor will give strength and
relative security to the church, to
business, to our professionals, to the
whole stream Of our social and cul-
tural life" This is the whole Jim
Crow policy of the S. P. This is
the policy whereby the masses Of
the Negro people-workers, share
troopers, tenant farmers, etc.-are
to be exploited for the benefit of
the church, the business men and
the professionals.
1t is against this exploitation, as
well as against the super exploita-
ton Of the white capitalists, that
the Communist Party is mobilizing
the Negro people and white workers
in joint columns to fight for full
political, social, and economic
rights for the Negro masses, against
Jim Crowism, segr Lation, against
the lynch terror.
S. P. Leaders and the S. P. Ranks
The S. P. is not a party of the
working class, even though in the
ranks Of the S. P. are many sincere
workers who really want to fight
for Socialism; many sincere work.
ers who want to unite the ranks of
the working class in their struggle
for their daily needs against fascism
and war and for Workers Gov
eminent. The path of the S. P. in
the U. S. is the path to fascism.
Its policy is the policy that led to
fascism in Germany and Austria.
It's policy in support of the New
Deal" of fascism and war is making
easier the introduction OF fascism in
the U. S. and the preparations for
a new imperialist war. Out of this
consideration only recently the U.
S. Government m d e Professor
Vladimir Karapatoff, a Socialist,
professor of electrical engineering
in Cornell University, a lieutenant
of the Naval Reserves. Koropatoff
earned this honorary title by hav-
ing invented an electrical battleship
which he places at the disposal of
the U. S. Government. This is the
open militarism and imperialism
manifested by a leading Socialist
with the knowledge and sanction of
the S. P. leaders.
No wonder, therefore, that
Charles Solomon, candidate for
Governor on the Socialist ticket of
New York, procures injunctions
against workers on strike and ex-
presses contempt for the workers
whose conditions have been cut
down by the crisis. Speaking in
Brownsville, N. Y, on Oct. 5, he
stated, 'the reason the Socialist Party
in Brownsville today is not the So
cialist Party of 1916 is that Browns
vile is not the same now as it was
then. In 1916 Brownsville was a fine
residential section occupied by
highly paid skilled workers and by
the lower middle class business men.
At that time the Socialist Party
had people in Brownsville to whom
to carry its message. With the miser-
able, unset respecting slum prole-
tartan elements which live here now
the Socialist Party can do nothing.
These slum proietarians are useful
only to Tammany politicians. They
are interested only in getting help
from district leaders and ward cap
tains."
Thus the Socialist Party leaders
characterize the workers of the
U. S. This is the position of every
capitalist politician. This is the
position against the workers who
are fighting against hunger, faScism
and war. And this is the reason
why the Citizens Union of New
York, body of wealthy and middIc
class business men, professionals
ETC., has endorsed candidates of the
S. p. in the elections.
Workers of New York. those OF
you who are looking for way out
of the crisis and have seen what
the New Deal is with it's Section
IA and its supposed right for the
working class; you who by the mil.
lions have gone out in struggle
against the New Deal and are pre-
