"We'U Vote AS We Striker

NEVER even in war days had Hazelton,
~ Pa, seen such a monster parade as
was called forth by the one day general
strike last Wednesday in support of the
textile workers We want to dwell here
with the significance of one Of the slogans carried
in the march by coal miners, textile workers truck
drivers, and others. 1t read: Wen vote as we
strke!"
IhatS a splendid Idea. But we must ask con-
cretely how is this to be carried out? In nearly
every state in which the textile strike is on the
Democratic or Republican governors have called
out the militia to shoot down workers ITO vote
as we striker is to vote against these parties
the parties of the bosses
Roosevelt's New Deal is the cause Of the miser-
able conditions Of the textile workers Roosevelt
himself promises to use Federal troopers against
the strikers
Supporting Roosevelt are all sorts Of self-desa-
mated friends Of labor" There is Upton Sinclair
Mr.. and Mrs. Pinchot in Pennsylvania who know
ing the sentiment Of labor often come to the picket
lines to get the workers to vote for them But to
vote for them when it Is remembered Governor
Pinchot helped break the coal and steel strike. is
not to vote strike"
TO VOTE as the textile workers ere striking is to
vote for the Party most active in fighting side
is, to vote Communist
When the capitalist press wants to besmirch the
strikers to express the hatred of the profit grabbing
employers who want to defeat the demands of the
strikers, they call them Reds, Communists! That
Is because they recognize the Communist PARTY Is
the most militant fighter for the workers
The Red cry was raised very prominently in the
textile strike 1t becomes one of the outstanding
issues In the present crisis of capitalism struggle
Tor better wages for better conditions for union
recognition, becomes a struggle not only against
the individual mill owners, but even against their
government, the state armed forces, and the Fed
eral oppressive forces.
Hence again, in this situation to "vote as we
strike, 1t IS necessary to vote Communist!
This sentiment of voting, of acting politically
as the workers see it, as they strike coming from
the midst of $4,000 workers in magnificent general
strike demonstration, shows that the workers every-
where are thinking deeply on the elections They
connect the strike struggles with the elections
The Communists must not lose this opportunity
OF bringing the Communist Party election program
to the workers and explain to them that in their
strike struggles, in their unemployed struggles in
the fight against hunger, war and fascism. when
they say: We'll vote as strike" WHY thew should
vote Communist

"Morro Castle, "A Warning

A SHIP, the MORO Castle" burns at

the criminal negligence of the chief Off

Immediately the cry is raised, the Communists

In Rhode Island textile strikers effectively close
down the mills despite the huge armed forces OF
National Guards and company thugs.
Immediately the governor shouts: The Com

What's an the shouting about? What are the
facts of the Moro Castle disaster and why are
they trying to pin 1t the Reds?
When Dickerson N Hoover chairman Of the gov
eminent investigation Board, instead of trying to
find the facts about the Moro Castle fire strove
to save the company some damages. At the same
time, as government official, he opportunity

against Hoover's Red hunt:
THE statement Of Dickerson n Hoover Ia a
shameless SANDER designed to up the
criminal negligence of the Bureau of Navigation,
which is helping the Ward Line to hide its respon-
sibility for the Moro Castle disaster.
ut is well known that the Communist Party
In this and i'll every other country is unaIterably
opposed to all acts of individual terror arson,
sabotage, etc. Mr. Hoover is merely repeating the
tactics of Hitler and Goering in the Rechstag
fire. The Communists have the same role in both
these arson They picked as convenient
scapegoats for criminals in the high ranks of
government and responsible capitalist society,"
Just at this time when Communists are among
the most active fighters for the victory of the
demands of the textile workers when every Fascist
agency in this country calls for terror campaign
against the Communists the employers and their
government try to utilize the Moro Castle dis
aster as a convenient excuse to atatck the Com

But the attack against the Communists is only
the first assault on all labor, on all trade unions
on all workers who refuse to accept starvation
conditions
The MORO Castle holocaust is just an instance
Should another similar disaster take place again
the same tricks will be used. In fact it is not
above the capitalist rules, when the need for more
intensive drive against labor arises, that they
themselves as in Germany will deliberately pro-

Veterans Say, No!

GOVERNOR GREEN'S decision to mo-
u Billie world war veterans for strike
bree king duty has encountered obstacles,
The Rhode Island executive commit
tee of the American Legion, while agree
ing in general to aid in preserving order,
refused to render such assistance in any
of the strike-torn areas.
At the same time the State commander OF the
Veterans of Foreign Wars made public wire from
the National Commander, J. E. Van zendt, as fol-
lows: Our organization takes no part in labor dis
putes BY ali means keep out Of It,"
All workers will greet this decision Of the veter-
ans organizations It shows that great groups of
veterans are refusing to become gunner and thugs
for the bosses.
This is as it should be. The great mass Of the
veterans are themselves workers. Many Of the tex
tile workers are veterans. They suffer from the
same low wages long hours and speed-up do
other workers Why should they enlist on the side
of the Bosses Of Governor Green, of President
Roosevelt as strikebreakers?
They have received nothing from these people,
either in the factories workers, or as veterans
to warrant doing them any favors They have
been denied their back pay bonus. Their own
relief allowances have been cut And even these
veterans were characterized "hoodums' "mobs'
and reds" when they fought against these cuts
and for their bonus. Why, these veterans, whom
Green invites to shoot down strikers we're them
selves shot down gassed and dubbed in the streets
of the nations capital.
1t takes nerve to ask these vets, these workers,
to shoot down other workers.
The fact that the top officials of the Legion and
WV. said No, indicates the tremendous opposi-
ton to such strikebreaking activities among the
