Organ Resigns

THE resignation of Police Commissioner
Organ does not mean that the work
ing-class of New York gets any guarantees
against violations of the right to organize,
picket, and demonstrate in the streets.
1t merely means that La Guardia has
decided that the crude, dctatorial methods of his
militarisc police chief will not do in the present
period.
A mitarist like Organ works crudey If he
wishes to break a strike, he at once tries to club
the workers into submission.
La Guardia is shrewder. He even will appear at
the strike scene to give the workers the illusion
Of democracy" and liberalism" But he will then
work to divide the ranks of the workers with all
kinds of promises. He will work to break up the
picket lines by using the method of Roosevelt-he
will promise to Investigate"
And then he will use clubs on those militant
workers who stand in the way of his trickery All
the while that he is trying to break the strike or
disperse the picket lines ne will spread the illusions
of democracy"
consulate demonstration, he will mask his police
brutality with the technique of defending de-
mocracy"
The trouble with Organ was that he did not
know how to utilize this democratic" machinery
to cloak his brutality and reaction. He was too
open. That is the meaning of the split between
organ and La Guarda.
THE exchange of letters between La Guardia and
Organ confirm significant fact-that it
was none other than officials of the Amagamated
Clothing Workers who initiated the fascist-like
Of police licenses for trade union represen-
tatives
Thus it shown that these reformst A. F.
Of L. bureaucrsts. with close ties to the Socialist
Party, were willing to suggest police supervision of
trade unions in order to fight the Communists
willing in short to pave the way for further re-
dictionary attacks against the labor movement in
the name of defending the trade unions from
Communism
The right to picket, strike and demonstrate
in the streets of New York remains just as before
question that be decided only by the organ
lied insiStence OF workers themselves. These
elementary civil rights the right to struggle fer
better conditions through mass picketing and
strikes must be defended by the workers against
the efforts of the LaGuardia regime to weaken
them by combination of democratic" trickery
and police brutality
The Communist Party, which will continue to
lead the fight for the right of the workers to
picket and strike, for the right to protest and dem
onstrate in mass actions. urges the workers not
to be fooled by the trickery Of La Guardia or
Roosevelt Stand by your own class Party, the
Communist Party.

Fourteenth InstalIment)


2. OTTO BAUER AGAINST UNITY OF ACTION
OTTO BAUER, once the leader of the great major
ity of the Austrian working class, puts the ques-
ton as follows: Not unity of action, but organi-
rational unity of the labor movement. This means
he is aiming at the Identification, after its collapse
of the Social Democratic Party of Austria. Up to
the February days OF this year Otto Bauer pre-
vented unity of action by answering every offer
of the Communist Party of Austria with the words
that the unity of the Austrian labor movement was
embodied in the Social Democratic Party of Aus
tria. Times have changed and the relation of
forces between the Communist Party and Social
Democracy has changed too-even Otto Bauer must
admit that. But he still continues along the old
line; under the pretext of uniting the revolutionary
forces he wants the reunification of the bankrupt
Social democratic Party, that is to say prolong-
ing the split under the new conditions Of fascist
dictatorship in Austria.
In an article published In the Arbeiterzeitung,
appearing in Brunn he writes:
THE great majority of the Austrian workers all
think alike. Ninety per cent of the workers want
irreconcable revolutionary struggle against fascist
dictatorship. Ninety per cent of the workers
convinced that the goal of this revolutionary strug
gle must be dictatorship of the proIetariat, which
shall settle accounts with the murderers of the
workers. demolsh their apparatus of rule distribute
the estates of the aristocrats, the capitalists and
the church among the agricultural laborers, the
small tenants and peasants sons, sociaze the big
undertakings and enterprises now in possession of
big capital, and not until then, when it has full
filled these historical tasks, set up commonwealth
of freedom and equality for all. Ninety per cent
of the workers agreed in the recognition of the
goal and of the way that leads to it. We have
unity of thought. This demands also unity of
ganizaton. 1t makes possible the unity Of the
party"
We agree with those social-Den1ocratic work
ers who honestly think that the working class in
the various countries is ever more sharply con-
fronted, not only with the question of unity of
action but also with the problem of the organiza-
tonal unity of labor movement. If one really
wants to prevent fascism, to destroy its source
capitalism, if one wants to overthrow the rule of
the bourgeoisie, this requires not only partial
and occasional unity of action but the organiza-
ton of all revolutionary workers in party and
the rallying together of the majority of the pro-
letariat nay, of the majority of the whole toll
ing people under the banners of this revolution
airy workers party.
FOR OVERTHROW OF CAPITALISM
We Communists hold that the overthrow of
capitalism is on the order of the day. In diff
ferent countries the struggle for the overthrow of
capitalism is being conducted on a different level
of development, but the objective conditions for
this struggle are everywhere maturing.

&c. 2. in Japan
lis Successful
Despite Terror
Most Strikes Credited to
Japanese Party;
Peasants Revolving

PARIS, Sept. 2s.-L,Humanite,
organ of the Communist Party of
France, recently published news of
int nse Communist activity in
Japan which has filtered through
the rigid military censorship of
that country.
In describing the methods being
used IN the effort to extern1tnate
the Communist Party Of Japan, one
of these reports states:
Considering the impracability
and the rage which characterize the
terror tactics used here against
communism, 1t might perhaps be
thought that communism is being
rooted out. But before us we have
the profoundly moving spectacle of
the constant successes of those who
are ready to take every risk for the
victory Of Communism. In certain
circles, Communists are feared as
death is feared"
The heroic battles and successes
Of the Communist Party of Japan
are apparent even in government
statements, which admit there have
been 821 strikes in Japan during
the first half Of 1884. A good many
of these have been in factories and
industries which have been manu-
featuring ornaments and war-na-
terial. In the country, open revolts
Of the peasants have become more
and more common.

Socialist Workers, Speak!

IF THERE ever was time when the So
ciaist Party leaders should speak up it
is now. Why are they remaining so silent
on the dastardly betrayal of the textile
workers by German, Green & Co.?
Outstanding individuals in the Social
list Party are implicated Didn't Emil REEVE,
leading socialist approve of Germans treschery
in the strike? Other socialist leaders worked hand
in glove with German all through the strike.
But right now, when tens Of thousands Of work
ers are being blacklisted when Southern textile
workers are being forced at the bayonets point to
sign yellow cog contracts, when the bosses
trying to ride rough-shod over the textile work
ers, why shouldn't the socialist leaders express
themselves, give the workers their stand the
shameless vicious 5ell-out of the strike?
During the textile strike the socialist New
Leader" had united front with William Green,
German and MacMahon Socialist members wrote
to ONei the editor protesting. Now the fruits
of this united front are being reaped in the most
vicious onslaught against the heroic textile strikers.
NURING the strike Norman Thomas was voluble
y enough He spoke at strike meetings. He made
statements for the press. Norman Thomas claims
to be leader Of the "militants" in the Socialist
Party. The only miltants be those who now
enter determinedly into the textile strike, who
fern united front against the workers enemies
Those who betrayed the textile strikers finging
them into mills to face the worst discrimination
handed cut to any workers in this country
certainly cannot be classed either as "mitants" or
Socialists"
Do the Socialist Party members in the textile
Industry, facing the blacklist approve of this silence
of their leaders who were accompces in the be-
travail?
Here the most brutal, fascist attacks levied
against workers organizations, against the rights
of union members all assisted by the foul treach-
cry Of Germans crew
If the Socialist Party leaders sincere in
wanting to fight fascism, in struggling to win i'm
proved conditions of the workers they must speak
up the question Of the united front Of socialists
and Communists in the A. F. of L. unions against
Just such miserable sell-outs, to make them i'm
possible in the future.
SOCIALISTS! There must be no tolerance of the
~ betrayers in the A. F. Of L. The united front
in the trade unions against just such policies must
be established now Ask your leaders to express
themselves this question. What they going
to do?
Socialists and Communists have the immediate
of uniting their forces within the trade unions
against the rotten. corrupt shameless betrayers-
the Germans, the Greens, the VOLS the Lewises.

Perkins Begins

MORE than 400 business executives
f& listened the other day with pleasure
to Fanny Perkins, Roosevelt's Secretary
of Labor, expound her views on uneHploy-
ment insurance.
The subject Of unemployment insur-
ance is becoming increasingly forced popular Is
sue with the agents OF the Roosevelt government.
Roosevelt's special board OF experts is preparing
voluninous reports to be issued before December
on score Of social insurance proposals. all neatly
timed for the Congressional elections.
There is no question but that it rs the Roose-
welt strategy now to conceal the past years ravages
of the NRA-New Deal with new barrase on the
question Of unemployment insurance But IL VIII

eminent will try to delude the masses this year
Perkins speech gives lS a pretty good idea Of
lust how Roosevelt will work his unemployment in
surance fraud. Our present system Of relief Is
nothing but dole" Miss Perkins stated belliger-
emily Therefore it must go and be replaced by
system Of compulsory Job insurance" Perkins
said.
Sounds radical doesn't tt7 Actually It's mean
ing is quite reactionary and wholly in the interests
of the employers.
AND what is this compulsory insurance" which
n Perkins advocates with such radical" ardorf II
is trick to side-step the Communist Party de-
mand for unemployment insurance to be paid for
by the employers and the government!
Perkins compulsory insurance is similar to the
state plans now in existence-a plan which COM
pletely ignores the present iobiesS, and touches
only those who will lose their jobs in the future
And even more important, this Perkins plan pro-
vides that the workers themselves shall pay for
their own insurance! 1t provides to pay for this
insurance out Of the wages Of the workers-not
from the profits Of the employers or the taxes
collected by the government.
The Communist Party in the coming Congress
sonal elections proposes the only obless insurance
plan that offers any real advantages to The work
ing class The Workers Unemployment Insurance
Bill H r. 1893, proposes cash relief at government
and employer expense
A vote for the Communist Party is a vote for
a real fight for unemployment insurance to be paid
for at the expense of the employers and their gov
ernment-not at the expense Of the workers whose
living standards have already been degraded by the
Roosevelt New Deal The effort to elect Communist
Party candidates is part Of the whole strug
gle tc win real adequate relief and real unemploy
ment insurance. The greater the Communist vote,
the more impelling the nght for real unemployment

Evidence Is
Manufactured
By Japanese
Special to the Daily worker

Especial TO the DAILY WOrker)
MOSCOW, Sept. IS (By Wireless) i.
According to information received
from Hardin, japanese authorities
in Manchuria, when examining ar
rested Soviet citizens, manufactured
their testimony, in oder to support,
with such forgeries, their silly YER
sion of a plot engineered by Soviet
workers of the Chinese Eastern
Railway.
For example, Romaniuk, sta
tion-agent who was arrested on
Sept. 10, while performing his
duties, was requested to sign con-
fession written in japanese. Ro-
maniuk objected, stating that he did
not understand the Japanese Ian
guage, and did not believe that the
statements which he was being
asked to sign were genuine, since
most Of his testimony had not been
translated to him.
In reply to his protests, officials
of the frontier police compelled Ro-
maniuk by force to sign the con-
feSsion prepared for him.
Similar methods of examination
were used on Stoker Pilenko. who
was arrested on Sept. at station
in Manchuria and compelled to
sign a document written in the
japanese language, which he die
not understand.

that two members of the board

The straw vote which the Coun-
Gil was instrumental in having
taken showed that 5000 to 215 of
the voters favored the complete

plan had been to open only half
of them, using tents to provide for

The excuse was that the Burbank

The second month of fall brought

weather ranging from hot spell at
the first of the month which finally
caused the thermometers to rise to 80
degrees at Wahluke on the ninth and
tenth and drop to low of thirty-four,
just two degrees above freezing, week
later. At the government weather sta

lowest was twenty-six degrees, recorded
on the fifteenth.
These rapid changes from one ex-
IRENE to the other characterized the
