The Drought Crisis

IRON every city of the West comes news
of rapidly advancing prices in all daily
food necessities.
This confirms the reports in yester-
days Daily Worker, reports carefully
played down in all the capitalist papers.
The rise in food costs will, of course
bring new hardships to the masses in the cities,
following the terrible mseres which the drought
has already brought the impoverished farmers.
There is no necessity for a rise in food prices.
Farm production could have provided immense re-
serves of food and grains for such emergencies,
But the Roosevelt A. A. program destroys more
than one-third Of the country's food supply leav-
ing the nation wholly unprepared for the drought
emergency.
Basically, it is not the drought which is re-
sponsible for the rising costs of food, but this
monstrous destruction of food by the capitalist gov
eminent.
THERE is only one way to stop the gouging of
food profiteers who are now trying to clean up
on the misery of the farmers and workers.
There must be fight against rising prices in
the cities.
The drought-stricken farmers must organize at
once for cash relief, for food and fodder distrbu
ton of the boarded supplies in the grain elevators
and big barns.
These demands are embodied in the Farmers
Emergency Relief Bill proposed by the Communist
Party.
The Roosevelt government is not helping the
suffering farmers and their families. He is per-
hitting the spectators to coin profits out of human
misery.
The fight is now for the protection Of human
life and the homes of the smaller farmers against
two enemies, the drought of nature and the CAPT
talist ruthlessness Of Wall Street government.

Back the Minneapolis
Strike!

DESPITE efforts of the Trotzkyites to
~ divide the ranks of the relief workers
who have come out on strike in support of
the truck drivers, the Minneapolis strike
continues with great effectiveness.
Truckmen, laundry workers, Emerg-
ency Relief Association workers, unem-
ployed workers uniting in wonderful class soli
darity, each fighting for their own demands and
aiding their brothers in the other trades
But while the air is electrified by the miitancy
Of the workers and their determination to stick until
they win becomes more obvious, there are dangers
lurking which must be faced squarely and ilumi-
mated if the strike is to be won.
The danger of troops and terror is quite obvious
But troops cannot smash the strike if the workers
continue to spread it to other industries. The
combined force of striking workers backed by Labor
throughout the country, can force the withdrawal
of troops at least make them effective.
hidden danger the danger of split in the
ranks of the strikers is the one that must get
the immediate attention of every worker in Min
neapolis.
When the relief workers into the strike
the dangerous split tactic OF the Troskyite leaders
was put into operation.
The first step in the split maneuver was the
driving out of representatives of the United Relief
Workers Association from a meeting of NR.A
workers by the Trotskyites
This tactic must be nipped in the bud by the
rank and file of the unions and relief organiza-
lions There must be no division in the ranks
Relief workers should demand one united action
for one set of demands Workers everywhere will
support such fight.
With the dangerous split maneuver defeated
the road will be cleared for more determined fight
against the employers, against the relief agencies.
The Minneapolis workers must not allow leaders
to divide them into opposing groups.
United the workers will win Divided they
will be defeated!
Workers throughout the country should unite
behind the Minneapolis strikers.
Hold meetings of solidarity!
Demand that Governor Olson withdraw the

against all workers no matter they vote Repub-

If ever there was time for firm, united
stand it is now. Fsscism has raised its CORY head
in the United States

regardless Of political opinions must unite against
the fascist beasts.

Strike Is A Disease,
AFL Head Says Urging
No Textile Walk-Out

ADMISSION, Ala, July 25.-The
strike of the 10000 cotton textile
workers of Alabama was attacked
yesterday by w. o. Hare, secretary
of the Alabama Federation of La
Dor, when in speech here to about
300 workers he urged them to "stay
on your jobs unless conditions are
extremely bad"
Hare told the workers the A. F.
of L. was and is aaginst the gen.
eral textile strike" His statement
follows the statement made by
Thomas w. Mcmahon, president Of
the United Textile Workers, few
days ago which, while pretending
to endorse the Alabama textile
strike, dealt the strikers blow in
the rear by advising the textile
workers of all other southern states
not to join in the walkout until the
convention Of the U. T. w. on Aug.
18th.
A week ago Mcmahon had said
that the Alabama strike would have
to run its course like a disease"
and now the A. F. L. leaders, by
blocking the spread of the strike
wherever it threatens to extend,
hope to choke out what they call
a disease before it gets too danger
Gus for the textile bosses whose in
terests they put ahead of the in
terests of the workers.

Unite Against Fascisn !!

you radical agitators, whether you call
yourselves liberals, Communists, So
cialists, or trade unionists, can expect no
mercy. We are not fooling with you any
longer. You can expect the treatment your
kind receives in Germany"
Thus spoke a well-knoWn attorney for
the Portland industraliss at the time the vgilante
and police raiders were tearing up and down the
streets of the western seaboard Cities breaking up
Communist headquarters, union halls and workers
meeting places and making wholesale arrests.
The indiscriminate arrest and terrorization of
men and women is not only an attempt to suppress
the Communist Party. 1t is a desperate move Of
the united forces of the federal government city
and state governments and the employers to sup
press strikes in which labor as whole is defending
its position.
First to be hit in the brutal raids was the mill
tant Marine Workers Industrial Union. When these
efforts to discredit the A. F. of L. men and M w
I. u members in each others eyes failed to halt the
maritime strike, all the forces of fascist reaction
were modified against the Communist Party and
all militant workers organizations
These attacks, if permitted to stand will pave
the way for fascist dictatorship in America The
fascist raids are designed to take away from the
workers its weapon against oppression-the strike
weapon.
The workers in Portland, Oregon, have already
opened a militant fight against the fascist
marauders. Despite the fact that meetings and
demonstrations were prohibited by city officials
and threatened by viglantes 1000 veterans of the
Workers Ex-Servicemens League staged an eff
fective demonstration in front of the court house
where workers were being tried on criminal syn
dicalism charges.
United front committees of A. F. L. members
liberals and Communists have been formed In Port
land to lead the fight against the terror
These committees must be set up everywhere
The united front in Portland must be broadened
and strengthened drawing in Socialist Party men,

workers as well Communists. 1t is directed

Nab Japan
Spy Band
U.S.S.R.
8 Imperialist Agents Are
Sentenced To
Be Shot
Especial to the Daily Worker,

MOSCOW, July Is (By Wireless)
"A band of spies and destruction
lists working for japanese imperial
ism was uncovered here by the
military collegium and the SUI
preme Court of the Soviet Union,
Eight Of the ringleaders were SEN
fenced to be shot.
This band of spies operated on
certain sections of the Soviet rail-
ways. They had two main basic
tasks. First, the gathering of in
formation regarding the carrying
capacity and the mobilization read
mess of the railways, particularly
those connecting the center of the
country with the Far East, the con-
ditionS of the locomotives, repairs,
ETC., of the main lines going to the
Far East. Second, conducting acts
of destruction and diversion on the
railway locomotive repair shops, in
preparation for destructive actions
in the case of the outbreak of war
against the Soviet Union.
The composition Of this spy or
ganization included certain state
employees both of the central ap-
paratus of the Commissariat of
Railways and its local organs who
betrayed the interests of the prole-
tartan fatherland.
The organization was headed by
Kim zayen, Korean spy, and agent
of the Japanese foreign intelligence
service who arrived from Man
churia.
For money paid by Kim, agents
of the Japanese intelligence service
developed extensive espionage &C
tivities, collecting secret materials,
and committing a number of de-
structive acts on the railways, both
by means of the organization of
train accidents and putting out of
order machinery in the locomotive
repair shops.
A number of railway accidents
on the Moscow-Kazan railway was
marked by serious consequences.
BY espionage and diversionist
acts, the traitors to the proletarian
fatherland succeeded in doing great
damage to the Soviet railway
transport system.
Twenty-three persons were COM
mitted to trial. Taking into con-
sideration that these spy agents
were also engaged in wrecking &C
tivities on one of the most i'm
portant sections of state economy,
namely, railway transport, and
that they were state employees, their
crimes become direct acts of high
treason to the proletarian dictator
ship, and the highest measures of
criminal repression must be APP
piled to the ringleaders and or
ganizers.
The military collegium and the
Supreme Court of the U. S. S. R.
sentenced the ringleader of the spy
organization, Kim zayen, and seven
of his closest assistants and organ
izers in espionage and wrecking ac-
tivities to the highest measure of
criminal punishment, shooting. The
other defendants were sentenced
to terms in prison Of 10 years and
| less.

Workers Force Police
To Free Four Arrested
At Bayonne Meeting

BAYONNE, N. J., July IS. - A
meeting held by the Young Com
munist League in front of the
Maiden Form shop was attacked by
the police last night, and four young
workers were seized and taken to
police headquarters. The attack
was made on the pretext that no
written permit had been granted,
though permission had been given
orally.
The crowd at this meeting, how
ever, together with the workers at
nearby meeting of the Non-Parti-
san League, demonstrated in front
of the police headquarters and
forced the release of the four who
had been arrested. Following this
victory the Young Communist
meeting was resumed, and the police
did not dare attack again.
Those arrested were James
Brandt, Lawrence, Harold Afros,
and Joe Plea.

President Francis M Law declared
last night that it is particularly for

understanding between the Federal

held.
With the exception of the Presidents
