Nazi Church Front

Opposition Fears Nazi
Measures Will Expose
Church Role

BERLIN, Jan. 8.-The split in the
Nazi Church Front-'storm detach-
ments of Jesus Christ widened yes
terday with 5000 Protestant pastors
uniting in opposition to the Nazi
Reich Bishop, Mueller, and defying
his recent decree ordering disclipin-
airy punishment for those agitating,
by word or mouth or printed matter,
against his authority
A manifesto issued by the insur-
gent pastors to their congregations
had the effect of a bombshell in the
Protestant communities, which had
been kept in the dark by the Nazi
press censorship on the crisis con-
fronting the Nazi Church Front.
The insurgent pastors, while sup
porting Hitler's atrocities against the
working class, are opposed to Muel-
ler'S thorough-going fascist reorgan-
ization of the church, which they
fear will weaken its influence over
the masses.

will it become unnecessary and winter
away of itself. In other words under
Capitalism we have State in the
proper sense of the word: that is,
a special instrument for the suppress
sion of one class by another, and
of the majority by the minority at
that. Naturally, for the successful
discharge Of such a task as the sys-
tematic suppression by the minority
of exploiters of the majority of ex-
plotted, the greatest ferocity and
Savagery of suppression is required,
and seas of blood are needed, through
which humanity has to direct its
path, i'm condition Of slavery, serf-
dom and wage labor.
Again. during the transition from
Capitalism to Communism, suppress
sion is still necessary; but il this
case it is the suppression of the
minority of exploiters by the majority
of exploited. A special instrument,
a special machine for suppression
that is, the state" - is necessary.
but this is now transitional State,
no longer a State in the ordinary

attack against the workers living
standards, through the use of the
government and the leaders of the
A. F. of L. The Communists pointed
out that the MIRA. was the employ
ment OF more and more fascist meth
DDS against the workers, particularly
against the workers organizations
and strikes. We tore through and
exposed all the lying promises and
called on the workers to fight in
order to prevent a lowering of their
living standards.
Why They Admit Things
Now all this is becoming palmer,
clearer. That is why the A. F. of L..
leaders, cap in hand, begin to bow
and scrape before the bosses and
apologize to the workers, trying to
keep their faith in the MIRA. In
order to prevent struggles now they
take new attitude. The MIRA. is
being endangered by 'chiseling"
bosses. (The fact that the majority
of the bosses achieve benefits at the
workers expense through the MIRA.
is a thing they overlook. They call
on the workers to submit further to
the yoke Of the NR.A., especially
asking them to look to Roosevelt for
aid. Above all, they want to prevent
strikes and real organization of the
workers that will upset the real in
tent of the Roosevelt scheme.
But here is where every class con-
scious worker, especially members of
the Communist Party have an impor-
tant task. In every A. F. of L. union
there is questioning about the real
intent of the MIRA. The workers are
learning the real meaning of strike
betrayals, and are going to make it
hot for the leaders. There are symp-
toms of rising struggles. 1t is above
all necessary for the Communists to
penetrate these unions, to organize
this discomfort, this underlined desire
for struggle; to mobilize it into a rank
and file opposition; to lead it into
channels of fight against the bureau

Some Best Friends Begin to Squarok About MIRA.

uERE is how the editor of the Union
ii Advocate, official organ of the A.
F. L. unions in Minneapolis, tries
to do it Cat the same time making
admissions that the majority of the
workers suffered severe wage slashes
under the N. R. A.:
With all due respect to the honesty
Of those who pass upon the various
industrial codes and with respectful
regard for President Roosevelt's in
terest in solving the unemployment
problem, it must be admitted that
the blue eagle has been a dismal
flop for millions who once believed
it would be godsend.
"It has failed in its purpose be-
cause selfish industrial interests,
dominated by even more selfish bank
ing interests, have insisted on low
wage scales, long hours and count
less exceptions.
In few industries wages have ac-
tually been increased, but in the vast
majority of cases, wages have been
lowered"
Apology and Knavery
What groveling apology to the N.
R. A. administrators and Roosevelt
who are responsible for low wages
lin the vast majority of cases." This
knavery equals only the support
these A. F. of L. leaders originally
gave to this whole scheme of smash
ing the workers living standards.
The Union Advocate goes on to
say:
THE case of the packing house
workers is well to the point. In that
industry, under the N. r. A. code
wages we're reduced to such level
that American standards of living
were impossible"
But, gentlemen of the Union Ad-
vocate, do you know that some OF
these same meat packers who under
the N. r. A. have made American
standards of living impossible" in
creased their profits 600 per cent?
THAT is just what the N. r. A. in
tended to do. The Communist
Party from the day Roosevelt scrib-
bled his name to the law and bab-
bled his promises over the radio,
declared that the N. R. A. was one
of the most vicious attacks ever
levelled against the American work
ing class. We pointed out that the
promises we're the usual smoke
screens to hide the real attack. Now

To Investigate

WASHINGTON, Jan. Samuel
Dickstein, Tammany representative
from New York's East side, has in
troduced a bill ITO authorize a spe-
cial committee to investigate Nazi
propaganda activities and certain
other propaganda activities" in the
United States. His bill would author
ize the Speaker of the House of
Representatives to appoint a COM
mittee of seven to investigate:
l. 1.-THE extent, character and OBJ
jects Of Nazi propaganda activities in
the United States.
2. 1.-THE diffusion within the u. S.
OF subversive propaganda that is
instigated from foreign countries and
attacks the principle Of the form OF
government as guaranteed by our
Constitution.
3. "Al other questions in relation
ship thereto that would aid Congress
in any necessary remedial legisla-
ton
If the house should approve the
Dickstein resolution the Committee
will have the power of subpoena,
something his recent interim investi-
cation of Nazi propaganda activities
in this country did not have. Dick
stein asked for $25,0o0 to defray the
expenses of the investigation.
"Is your bill aimed exclusively at
the Nazis2', the Daily Worker Cor
respondent asked Dickstein a few
minutes after the bill reached the
clerk of the house.

questions. The bill speaks for itself.

Out Opposite to
All Promises Made
To the Workers
BY HARRY CANNES

THE N. R. A. is being weighed in
1 the balance and found wanting by
its most ardent supporters. BY some
strange and perverse twist of fate,
they want the workers now to be-
lieve, the N. R. A. is working OPP
posite to the manner originally in
tended.
What are the facts? The N. r. A.
is working out, indeed, contrary to
all promises made by President Roose-
velt General johnson, the A. F. of
L. leadership, and the Socialist Party
officialdom. Promises, however, were
only the gold paint on the brick
the Roosevelt regime was about to
heaye at the heads of the workers
When the worker gets up groggy and
mad, the union officials begin to make
apologies.
Here for example is comparison
of promises and accomplishment
from the chief promisee, President
Roosevelt.
When the newspapers were blaz-
lLlE dH oiy NOll IllC WOA1OClo pllC ~ ~
A. would accomplish, Roosevelt's
first message on the N. R. A. said
that its main object was to increase
purchasing power, land by that I
mean raising wages" he said, and
"by wages I mean decent living
standards"
That was in July, 1888. On Jan.
3, 1884, Roosevelt made a speech at
the opening Of Congress, in which
he said.
uniform standards of hours and
wages apply today to IS per cent of
industrial employment within the
field of the national industrial re-
covery act"
Uniform standards" and decent
living standards" are oceans apart,
as we will learn from Roosevelt's sup
porters. The fact is the N. r. A.
has made wages uniformly low.
Have Hard Time
A. F. of L. leaders are now having
hard time explaining to the work
ers how a law which was supposed
to raise wages, lowers them; a law
which was supposed to grant work
ers unionization rights, introduces
fascist methods Of attack.

Alexander Stavisky, fugitive head

Stavisky.
Following the failure of the bank
last Wednesday and the disappear

revealed that insurance companies
had been induced to buy Stavisky' S

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. g.
Southern white and Negro workers
and Sharecroppers will honor the
memory Of Lenin with innumerable
meetings, both open and secretly, this
Sunday, Jan. 81. The meetings will
be the first Lenin memorial held in
the South on mass scale.
Fifteen meetings are planned for
the city of Birmingham alone, in
Guiding meetings in Ensley, Fairfield,
BeSsemer, etc. Bessemer is a steel
and mining center, where the Com
munist Party has recently made great
Roadway.
The sharecroppers and poor farm
ers of the Black Belt will brave ter
ror b. the landlords and khan to
honor Lenin's memory in small secret
meetings. Such meetings will be held
particularly in Tallapoosa county,
stronghold of the Share Choppers
Union. There will be at least one
such meeting in Chambers County,
where eleven troopers were recently
framed and sentenced to prison.
Among the many other cities in
this part of the South planning Lee
min Memorial meetings, are Citronelle
and Andalusia in Alabama; Memphis
and Nyota in Tennessee, and oxford

N. R. A. has failed to serve cts own
ends. These ends were % to in
crease employment, 90 to increase
the purchasing power Of the work
ers through increased wages, and 90
to guarantee collective bargaining
through recognition of legitimate
unions"
What Actually Happened
On point No. l. Mr.. William Green
points out that in November $50 900
workers lost their jobs. The total I'M
employed still remain at 100000
Point No. 2. We have the admission
of the Union Advocate that wages
were decreased in the majority of in
stances. Labor" one Of the most ar
dent supporters of all the knavery of
the Roosevelt regime, official organ of
the railroad unions, declares on this
point:
But the MIRA. has shown two Sc
rious weaknesses. Its codes have fixed
hours too long and wages too low.
The MIRA. wages do not supply suf-
ficient buying power for prosperity,
and the MIRA. hours could flood the
market with goods, while millions of
men were left idle on the breadlines."
That is putting it very mildly.
On Poin No. 8, we have the action
of the National Labor Board against
the Weirton Steel Co. workers, the
Budd Auto strikers, and the Philadel-
phia taxi strikers. 1t is the avowed
object Of the National Labor Board
with its A. F. of L. leaders, to pre-
vent or to break all strikes that fight
against the admitted worsening of
conditions as shown under Points l
and 2.
ONLY the most depraved betrayers
" Of the workers can say the whole
law slipped on a banana peel and
landed on its behind. The results are
precisely what were intended. Roose-
welt, acting for the big trusts, sought
to find some means of smashing
down living standards, in a round
about way of course, covered with
pnestly lies, of course-but for the
end Of trying to bring capitalism out
of its crisis at the expense of the
toiling masses.
