''Bread, Overalls Good
Enough For Jobless"
Says Brass Magnate

WATERBURY, Conn, July 81
Twenty-Five hundred workers have
been laid off in Waterbury, during
the month of July, government fig
ures reveal.
At a recent meeting of the manu-
facturers held here, Mr.. James H,
Goss, brass magnate, stated that:
"A pair of overalls and loaf of
bread is good enough for any
worker"
Goss is also head of the Mutual
Aid organization, for which the city
is taxing workers one per cent of
their wages to support the unem-
ployed.
Goss and his organization bitterly
oppose the demand of the Unem-
ployment Councils and the Steel and
Metal Workers Industrial Union for
increased relief, given not from
workers wages, but from the city
funds. This Mutual Aid organiza-
ton, based on the so-called Harris
PLAN" was organized by the mayor,
puppet Of Mr.. Goss.

Fascist Organization
Begun By Ku Klux Khan
Organizers In Penna.

PITTSBURGH, July 31.-A new
outspoken fascist group, calling it
self the American Fascist" is be-
ing formed here by the two ex-
organizers of the Ku Klux Klan,
H. N. Norton and Hugh Cobb, with
national headquarters in Atlanta,
Georgia.
Advocating a program of extreme
jingoism and chauvinism, the
pledge of the organization states,
81 believe in the leadership and
supremacy of the white race" aping
the lynch spirit of the XII Klux
Khan.
The group calls for mighty war
machine to impress the rest of the
world with Americas greatness"
Charging an initiation fee of SO,
the organization is seeking to clean
up on the same kind Of racket
which was exposed in the frauds of
the old Ku Klux Khan organizer,
Simmons, who stole thousands of
dollars from workers whom he had
tricked into believing that the or
ganization was In their interests.

to be permanently maintained to suph<ess the ele-
mentary rights of the working class.
The New Deals terroristic drive against the
workers as seen in the shooting down of strikers
and unemployed throughout the country and in
less methods. Preparation is now made for whole
sale, coldblooded murder.
IN some cases the government has found the militia
too close to the working class and to the farmers
Sons of workers and farmers dislike the dirty work
of shooting down unarmed pickets with sub
machine guns. In Toledo and elsewhere national
guardsmen refused to shoot their brothers
The national guards will still be used to shoot
down strikers. But more reliable" picked legions
are now being prepared. A special type of regi-
ment is created to carry out without question the
most bloodthirsty, fascist acts ordered by the La
Guardia bankers government. This model will be
copied in other cities.
THE workers must increase their protest against
the setting up of this fascist band which is at
the beck and call of the former corporation lawyer
Organ. Every organization and every individual
which has respect for the elementary rights of the
workers to organize to strike and to meet must now
raise his voice in protest The police unionism,
the Schutzstaffel, Hitler regiment must be abol-
ished.
Pass resolutions for the abolition of this fascist
terror band Do not let the LaGuardia admins
tration create firing squads which will soon be
shooting down workers.

Farm Debts Will Be
Utah Campaign Issue

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, July 81.
Repeal of the State Sales Tax, the
Criminal Syndicalist Law and other
anti-working class legislation, and
complete cancellation of all debts
and taxes for impoverished farmers,
were the chief planks in the pro-
gram adopted by the state NOM
mating convention of the Commu-
mist Party here on Sunday.
The convention, attended by los
delegates from farm communities
and mining centers selected a state
ticket consisting of: Cornelia John
son for United States Senator:
Lawrence Mower, for Congressman
in the First District, and Karl Bjork
for Congressman in the Second
District; Philip Roeberg for State
Treasurer, John Silverzone for
Justice of the Supreme Court and
Francis Grant for State Auditor. A
state election rally will be held at

Picked Fascist Bands

THE La Guardia administration on Mon
day began the training and drilling of
the newly formed police rifle regiment"
which will be used as firing squads to
murder New York workers
Thus Mayor La Guardia carries for
ward more speedily the preparations of
blood baths against workers who fight for decent
living standards.
NOW the LaGuardia administration takes still
another example from the terroristic methods
of Hitler and Mussolni. A picked regiment has
been created. It is armed with Thompson sub
machine guns, army type rifles gas bombs, arnored
cars and other weapons for the smashing of picket
lines and unemployed demonstrations
The order was given Saturday for the setting
up of this regiment. Two days later the drilling
of the men had already begun in two city armores,
using the army drill
IUF1Y this extreme haste? Because the govern
ment fears the rising tide of resentment of the
workers of New York against relief cuts, against
rising living costs, against low wages Because the
LaGuardia administration is determined to put
over the bankers program, whatever the cost in
workers blood. The LaGuardia administration is
preparing its picked strike-breakng murderers in
advance.
The setting up of this regiment of carefully
selected mercenaries is comparable to the black
shirted special police of Goering and Hitler.
special regiment is trained specifically for warfare
against the workers. Only those are selected who
have no sympathies with the workers, those who
have the least ties with the working class.
The employing class no longer relies on the
militia alone to smash unions and other workers

The Second Congress
For all these reasons the prepara-
tions for the Second Congress of the
League Against War and Fascism
in Chicago must be taken in hand
with a will They must be carried
on politically They must not merely
become an effort to bring delegates
to Chicago, but must be primarily
an effort to mobilize the millions
of workers and other opponents of
war for organization and action
against war. We must 60 to Chicago
not merely to a Congress We must
go to Chicago for an effort to es-
tablish active connections with the
broadcast masses of workers for one
united front. We must keep clearly
in mind the needs of the struggle
against war We must learn to APP
proach the workers on the basis of
their antagonism toward war, ire
spective of their political, religious,
or other opinions. We must find
the point of contact and agreement
for common struggle, for a COM

we build the united front. In this
way alone will we be able to over
come and break down ideas and
conceptions in the workers as yet

Nazis Push
OnCOnbine

VIENNA.-The Nazi, Otto Plan
eta, who shot the Austrian Chan
cellor Dollfuss, was hanged at 4.33
p. m. here today.
His accomplice, Franz Holzweber,
was also hanged a few minutes
later.
Other Nazis who took part in the
putsch throughout Austria were
sent to special concentration camps.
Il did not mean to kill the Chan
cellor," Planetta, who is charged
with having fired the shot, stated
at the trial. Il am sorry"
Indications of new Nazi maneu-
vers to force the union of Austria
with Germany we're seen today in
the declarations of the Nazi press
on the Austrian Cabinet headed by
Kurt Schuschnigg. The Hitler Fas-
cist newspapers stated that the
Schuschnigg government would not
last very long.
The Nazi press states that there is
great jealousy between the Helm
wehr (Fascist Home Guard, and
the Christian Social Party, of which
Schucchnigg is one of the leading
members. They maintain this will
result in further struggles for con-
troll of the government. Trouble
between the Heimwehr and the
Christian Social Party say the
Nazis, has been delayed for only
short time.
In the meantime, Won Papen has
not been accepted as German envoy
to Austria.
The Jugoslavian Ambassador to
Berlin issued a declaration yester-
day aimed at Italian troops which
we're massed on the Jugoslavian
border. This statement is taken as
showing a growing alliance be-
tween Jugoslavia and Fascist Ger
many, and a weakening of French
influence.

in the extraordinary anti-war Con-
gress of the Second International at

traitors said: 1--WE cannot obligate
ourselves to the use of any partic-
ular method of struggle against war
until war becomes fact because
the methods we will employ will de-
pend on the conditions which then
exist" When the war came, they
said: Nov we cannot fight against

treachery of these social democrats
in 1914 was not a sudden event; it
was opportunism brought to COM

The seriousness with which we
consider our duty to fight against
war cannot be measured by in
