DETROIT, January 2o.-Because
every standard stock model made is
capable of a much higher rate of speed
than the laws of the 48 States allow,
the sales executives, designers and
others connected with the manufacture
ing and selling of motor cars normally
make little mention of the speed capac-
ity of the new types being introduced
every IL months.
II is a matter of common knowledge,
not only to the engineer, but to most
buyers, that each year the speed of the
stock cars has been increased. Few of
the new 1884 types now being presented
ere not capable of speed in excess Of
30 miles an hour
The engineers agree that such speed
rarely can be utilized, even in States
where the highway laws permit un-
limited speed, but they point out that

be settled through N. R. A.-conducted elections
after they returned to work. The elections were
never held and the questions were never settled
In the Ford and Budd plants the N R. A. kept
the workers from winning their demands through
the arbitration joker.
The rank and file of the strikers must press
with all their energy to negotiate for their de-
mands while the strike is on This is the only
sane and proper way to solve the question.
Great sacrifices have been made by the workers

Protests against the threat of the A. F. L. lead
ers to betray the strike must be raised by organized
labor in every city and town. Every A. F. L. local

the reactonary leaders who are attempting to smash
the strike.
There must be an intensification of protest &C

It should be clearly understood that the only

Every labor leader who is trying to break the

Y the Vandeleur gang and definitely connected with
it the vicious and unprecedented fascist attacks
on the Communist Party and all militant trade
union workers.
The organized drive of vigilantes and police
against the most militant section of the working
class the smashing up of Communist Party head
quarters, the raiding of the hall Of the Marine
Workers Industrial Union-au this is part of one
general we-calculated attack on the strike and the
demands of the strikers. The attack was organized
by shipowners and the city government as coop
erative to aid the reactionary union officials
put over the treacherous resolution. One motive
of the raids was to keep mi1tants from attending
the meeting where the resolution was to be voted
on.
No one can dispute the fact that it is the ship
owners end the government that is leading the
attack the strike.
"The first indication of the concerted drive
against radicals came from Charles Wheeler vice.

said in a talk at the Rotary Club here today that

dispatch from San Francisco said. "He intimated

1t is clearly the aim of the employers to split
away from the strike leadership the Communists

treacherous settlement and open the way for the
betrayal Of the strike by the Vandeleus,
FADING this fascist drive against the strike
is Franklin D. Roosevelt's N. R. A. director,

thing that stands between settlement of the strike
and its continuation is the granting of the marine

mouth like Ku Klux Klaner rushing post haste

organizations" to run these subversve influences
out from its ranks like rats"
Thus the N. R. A. has set the stage for a lynch

the ground for complete betrayal Of the strike.

accept the arbitration scheme. The truck drivers

The Libel Suit Against
'LUnita Oberdid'

THE libel suits brought against the revo-
lutionary Italian language weekly news
paper, LUnita Operaia, by Mussolini
henchmen and discredited, expelled former
leaders of the Independent Order of the
Sons of Italy, are part of an increasing
mobilization of the courts in an attempt
to smash the militant labor press.
Only few weeks ago, Clarence Hathaway, editor
Of the Daily Worker, and Harry Raymond, staff
writer were indicted by grand jury on criminal
libel charge brought by members of the notorious
strikebreaking Sherwood Detective Agency whose
activities were exposed by Raymond in a series of
articles during the New York taxi strike.
Similarly, the aid of the courts is now sought
to penalize LUnita Operaia and its editor Comrade
Tito Nunzo, for defending the interests of the rank
and file membership of the Independent Order
of the Sons of Italy The paper exposed the shady
deals of the fascist lawyer politician Rosario In
gariola and his lieutenant, Prof Isola. Both of
these fascists who, up to a short time ago were
leading" the New York Grand Lodge of the Order
were expelled under pressure of rank and file in
dlgnation by the recent convention of the Grand
Order at Schenectady They now appeal to the
courts to rehabilitate their threadbare "reputa-
tons"
THESE fascist politicians did not dare to answer
before the rank and file membership of the Order
the charges raised by LUnita Operaia They resort
instead to their class allies in the boss courts to
whitewash their crimes against the working class
and to penalze the revolutionary paper and its
editor for champonng the interests of the workers

Truck Strike
In Minneapolis
Closes Market
Drivers Union Heads
Taxed for Failure To
Spread the Strike
Especial to the DAILY worker


MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 1s.-
No attempts have been made as yet
to move trucks in or out of the
market, which is completely roped
off by the city. Provision houses
utilized the five days delay of the
strike, from last Wednesday to this
Tuesday, to empty the warehouses
and establish temporary shipping
places and warehouses in small
towns outside of Minneapolis, from
which they attend to out-of- town
trade.
The capacity and effectiveness of
this strike is much more limited so
far than the May strike, due to the
exclusion Of petroleum workers from
the strike. The closing of gasoline
stations last May was one Of the
trump cards of that strike.
This action can be interpreted
only as concession to the oil mag
mates of the U. S. A. The strategy
of the strike leadership, which is to
wait until employers attempt to
open the market before calling out
other drivers, means that only an
attack Of armed forces upon the
strikers will make possible any
sympathy strikes. The leadership
purposely ignores the fact that the
rank and file of all local unions is
ready for action now, and the need
of the hour is to broaden the strike
to at least all drivers in Minneap-
oils.
The Communist Party has placed
the following questions before the
strike leadership:
How can the leaders of Local STA
explain the unwillingness on their
part to broaden the strike?
How will they explain to the
drivers the fact that their stalling
in calling out other drivers gives
petroleum companies, laundry COM
panies, and others, time to further
prepare for an emergency when and
if their workers are called out?
Do the leaders of the present
strike lay hope in the Rev. Haas,
who is coming here by plane to
settle the strike for them?
Why don't they come out clearly
and openly against arbitration and
labor boards, the methods of the
employers to deceive and defeat the
workers?
Why don't they put to a test the
leadership of the Central Labor
Union of Minneapolis, who declare
themselves in words for a general
strike, for united action against
citizens alliance?
Governor Olson keeps his state
troops in Minneapolis for strike
breaking duty in the name of claw
and order" Why wait until the
union members get a present of hot
lead from Olson's troops?
Why not develop united action of
the whole Minneapolis labor move
ment now, to force the withdrawal
of troops from Minneapolis by the
so-called labor" Governor?

L Saar problem, as a class
question, has always been a
problem of the German pro-

many they want at the same
time, by means of the revolutionary
mass struggle in the Saar, to
achieve the social and national
emancipation of the Saarland. The
Communists were and are even
more today Of the opinion that the
prospects of the proletarian reyo-
luton in Germany have become
more favorable as a result of the
revolutionary upsurge which is tax
ing place. Therefore, they were,
and are still today, of the opinion
that the propaganda and prepara-
ton OF the masses for the fight
for Soviet power also in the Saar
district must be continued and
strengthened.
The fact that the date for hold
ing the plebiscite has now been
definitely fixed demands of the
Communists feminist tactical de-
cision in this question. None of
the three alternatives on which the
vote will be taken-namely, at
tachment to France, return to Ger

status quo, corresponds to the So

striven by coalition with other bour-
geois groups to fetter the workers
to the bourgeois, and owing to the
fact that they have been able to
prevent the unity of the working
class on a revolutionary basis, the
Communists are still today unable
to lead the decisive political class
battles in the Saar and to solve

their final Socialist aim.

MOSCOW, U. S. S. r., July II
(By WirelesS) The Ambassador of
the U. S. S. R. to France, Valeryan
Savelievich Dovgalevsky, who died
in Paris recently from cancer of
the intestines, was born in the
Ukraine in 1885. He joined the
Russian Social-Democratic Labor
Party in 1904 and worked as a
propaganda among the peasants
in the Ukraine.
Since the end of 1905 he lived
Illegally and was arrested for the
first time in August, 1906; he was
acquitted in the beginning of 1907
by a military court in Kiev. He
was soon rearrested, and in the
autumn of 1907 was sentenced to
penal servitude, which was re-
placed by lifelong exile.
He fled the Angar region first to
Western Siberia, and later went
abroad, where in 1908 he had his
first opportunity to become more
closely acquainted with the theo-
retical views of the Bolsheviks, and
joined them. He remained a firm
Bolshevik, a true and devoted son
OF the Party.
During his years of emigration
he worked in France; firstly as a
workman, afterwards as an engi-
neer, always maintaining connec-
ton with the Party and with the
work of the Party. Having re-
turned to Russia after the Febru-
airy revolution, he occupied various
responsible posts, firstly in Kiev

They are equally aaginst it's union
with Germany at the present time.
They do not believe in committing

Hitler Germany would mean to be-

The interests of the workers and
the toiling population demand a
decision which shall provide the
greatest possibility for the develop
ment and extension of the anti
fascist class struggle. Under the
present conditions, and in spite of
the hostility of the Communists to
any capitalist regime, this possibility
is offered by the status quo.
The Communists can carry out
this tactic without difficulty. Firstly,

After the end of the Civil War
he was made Peoples Commissar
of Posts and Telegraphs of the
Russian Socialist Federated Soviet
Republic and after the formation
of the U. S. S. R. was made Vice
Commissar of the Posts and Tele-

reelected member of the Central
Executive Committee of the R. S.

In 1924 he was appointed AM
basSador of the U. S. S. r. to
Sweden. In 1926 he was appointed
Ambassador of the U. S. S. R. to

In 1929, after he was instructed
to carry on negotiations with the
British Government in London,
Dovgalevsky signed an agreement

most emphatically in face of all the
opportunists and in face of the
counter-revolutionary talk to be ex-
pected from the social democracy
that the Communists are making a
wolfe face" that the tactics pur-
sued by the Communists in the
Saar were and are correct. They
could not make the tactical decision
they are now making six months
or a year ago, because the develop
ment of the class forces and sud-
den and unexpected turns in events
before the holding of the plebiscite
might have rendered it necessary
to adopt another attitude to the
Saar question. That the develop
ment has not proceeded at the pace
desired by them is due, among
other things, to the criminal policy
of the social-democracy and the
Second International. With the tao
tics they are adopting, the Commu-
nists deliberately turn the attention
of the proletarians OF the Saar dis
trict and of all countries to the
revolutionary upsurge which is tax
ing place under the leadership of
the C.P.G. Today, every toiler in
Germany and even the disappoint-
ed Nazi supporters will understand
this step, particularly because they
recognize that the attitude of the
Communists has nothing in COM
mon with the pro-French and war
mongering attitude Of the social
democracy.
The united front appeal of the
Communists to their class brothers
in the social-democratic organi-
cations and in the trade unions
is of decisive importance in this
situation. Through their appeal
they open wide the door of the
Communist Party, and the social
democratic and non-party work.
ers will know that, in the united
front of the Communists, they
will find themselves in the revo-
lutionary front which alone will
defeat Hitler fascism, shake off
every yoke of slavery and, under
the leadership CT the Communists,
achieve the social and national
emancipation of the working peo-
pie of the Saar.
