The maneuvers Of Lewis and
Hillman must be exposed, and the
rank and file opposition must take
the leadership of the fight for in
dustrial llnionism at the A. F. of
L. convention, as we'll as for mil

we can defeat the attempts of the
labor bureaucrats to exploit the
issue of industrial unionism for
their own benefit, and show the
masses that their struggles will only
be sidetracked and betrayed if the
workers are deceived by the man
euvers of the Lewises. Hillmars and
so-called "progressives," who have
never carried on a real struggle
against the policy of Green. The
program of the A. F. of L. rank

must rally at the A. F. of L. con-
vention against the program of
Green, Lewis and Hillman.

in disgust from the Regional Labor

been consumed in unnecessary argyll

of the essential fact pointed out

Program Has Stood Test,
He Says at Opening of
Anti-War Congress

CHICAGO, Sept. S0.-Following
is the text of the address of Earl
Browder, General Secretary of the
Communist Party, U. S. A.. at the
opening of the Second U. S. Con-
gress Against War and Fascism in
the Coliseum Friday night:
Friends:
This meeting, and the Congress
which opens tomorrow, are prom
Using signs of the rise of a great
united movement against Fascism
and war.
Surely such a united movement
is Sorely needed. The United States
is driving rapidly toward Fascism
and toward new imperialist war.
Revelations of the Senate Arma-
mentS InVes, igation Committee
have slightly lifted the lid of ex-
posture; the resulting stink of cor
ruption shocked the world. The
governments of our own and other
countries were shown as partici-
pants in a gigantic game of mass
murder for profits.
These extreme nationalist, these
100 per cent Americans, these fight
ers against the Reds, are disclosed
as international murderers, they
arm the United States against
Japan, and Japan against the
United States; they sell munitions
impartially to both sides in the
South American wars; they rearm
Germany and help rouse fear at
this rearmament. The stink of this
ceSspool of murder and bribery has
frightened our statesmen. They
conclude that what is dangerous is
not the condition, but its exposure.
Now the lid has quickly been
clamped down again; the Senate
investigations expressed fear that
their revelations, if continued,
would cause upheavals and revolu-
lions.
Fight War Makers At Home
1t is very easy to shout COM
plants against the war prepara-
tions of other countries. But that
does not help to stop war, that only
strengthens the hands of the war;
makers, who live on the fears of
what the "other fellow" may do.
The only way to fight war is to
begin by fighting the war-makers
in our own land, to extend this
fight into the factories, especially in
munitions factories, docks, ETC., to
bring this fight into every mass or
ganization, trade unions, fraternal
societies, clubs, farmers organiza-
tons, churches, among the Negroes,
soldiers, veterans, women and youth.
The Roosevelt administration is
carrying through the greatest war
program even seen in peace time.
The very recovery appropriations"
for relief of the starving are turned
into war appropriations, into gigan-
tic naval expansion, into army
mechanization, into poison gas,
bombs, tanks, airpIanes. Every per-
son and party who helps this pro-
gram is helping prepare the new
World War. The only way to fight
war is to begin by fighting the war
program being carried through by
washington.
Rising Fascist Violence

In other words, these gentlemen
realize that the sham of "arbitra-
ton" as practiced in Los Angeles
and elsewhere is no longer serving
its purpose of fooling workers and
should therefore be scrspped for
more open and direct methods OF

united action against fascism and

Communists Hail Congress
I am speaking as a representa-
tive of the Communist Party of the
U. S. A. We Communists greet this
great united movement against war
and Fascism represented at this
Congress. We are happy to see the
growing numbers Of American Fed
Grafton of Labor unions in it. We
are happy to see increasing num-
bers Of Socialists and Socialist Party
locals; we hope the whole Socialist
Party will soon end its hesitations
and come into the united front. We
are happy to see the great Youth
Movement, firmly rejecting the at
tempts of Fascism to take leader
ship Of it, and moving solidly into
the anti-fascist united front. We
are happy to see the most impor-
tant peace organizations, and
women's organizations, the churches
and religious societies, coming into
the American League Against War
and Fascism, and its Congress. We
are happy to see the outstanding
intellectuals, writers, artists, sup
porting this movement. This great
progressive peoples movement
against fascism and war is locked
upon by us Communists as the most
promising development in America
today. We pledge our full, most
loyal and energetic support and
participation in all its work.
The Program
This movement already has a
program, approved unanimously one
year ago at the great First Con-
gress in New York, with 2,616 dele
gates. This program has stood the
test, has proved its correctness, has
made 1t possible for this greater
Congress to gather in Chicago
This program is not a Communist
program; it is a minimum united
front program, to which every hon
est fighter against war and Fascism
can subscribe. We support this pro-
gram Fundamentally.
We can do this with all the more
enthusiasm, because we are sur,
that finally, in the course of the
struggle to save civilization from
Fascist barbarism, every honest pro-
gressive is going to learn that, il

Hitler Germany; what Communism
has to offer is shown by the tri-

socialist society of peace and pros
perity for the masses in Russia, il

know what the final decision will

We have long known. Of course.
that 1t could not exist without help
from so-called respectable people and
now We are beginning to get an In
sight into how that help IS given.
Always there have been crooked
lawyers ready to bail gangsters out
when they get into Jail and to keep
them out Of court, II possible. There
Is ground for the suspicion that the
big gangs have legal departments
which are fully as well paid as those
representing the big corporations.
OF the three now accused none has
been found guilty and each must be
considered innocent until the Jury re-
ports. On the basis Of the showing
already made. however, it would seem
they have their work cut out for them
If they are to win their freedom.
Grant that to find DR.. May guilty
would ruin his practice. II it con-
sists Of giving aid and assistance to
public enemies 1t were better ruined.
The very best that can be said Of him
Is that he had q chance to prove
himself good citizen and failed to
take it. Incidentally, his plea that
he was afraid to tell while he treated
Dillinger for three days discloses very
little faith in the power Of the gov
eminent to protect those who give 1t
assistance.
OF the three on trial the Frechette
girl is most entitled to sympathy, II
any is deserved at all. At least Dill
linger was "her man" and, bad as
both Of them are, there was more
than money involved. To fight for
and support the man Of her choice is
an admirable quality in most women
and had this half breed girl taken
the trouble to legaltze her association
with the gangster there probably
would be no question about it now.
As it was, the association may be
presumed to be one OF those elemen-
tai things which happen in all strata |
Of society and. judged from this
standpoint alone. the girl is to be |
pitied more than censured.
But no spirit of chivalry need be |
wasted on her because She is Just as |
much q public menace, even If only
in a small way, as her gangster !

quently are at the roots of the gang
system Of which we see only the fruit,

be eliminated the gangs must be

Federal Revenues
New York TimeS)

One OF the encouraging signs Of the
times is the steady gain in federal
revenues. Treasury receipts thus far
In the current fiscal year amount to
1882. DOC, 900, compared with $l.7l6,-
000. 900 in the same period a year ago
and with 1892, 100000 In 1882.
This years account, to be sure, is
padded by the inclusion of one ex-
traneous item: about $500 100000 de-
rived from taxes imposed on the pro-
cessing Of wheat, cotton. tobacco, etc,
under the various crop-curtailment
programs OF the AAA. This is not
properly q government revenue, since
1t Is earmarked for distribution to
farmers, and the treasury collects it
TOR that purpose. But even after this
sum Is deducted from gross receipts,
the governments income is IS per
cent above the figure for last year
and nearly 40 per cent in excess Of
that for 1882.
With one exception all Of the main
divisions OF the treasury's revenue
show q gain. The exception is the
miscellaneous group. which includes
as its principal item payments on the
war debts. The amount received this
year from foreign governments is
only $50 600 900, compared with near
~ 500, O00, 900 last year and with more
than 5000 100000 In the year before
the Hoover moratorium" But the
falling Oft Of revenue from this source
has not upset the administration
plans. In the budget estimates SUBJ
mitted to congress In January the
treasury estimated 10000 900 as the
amount which would be paid, adding
IN footnote that if more was re-
ceived SO much the better.
All the other and more important
revenues show improvement. Gus
toms receipts have increased from
$2l5 100000 last year to $27o ,0OO, 900,
rejecting the greater activity in for
eign trade. The yield Of income
taxes has advanced from $3.50 900 600
to $6l3. 100000. But by far the great
est gain has been made in the case
Of internal revenue taxes, which,
bringing IN 1920. 600 900 this year
compared with $705. 900 900 q year
ago. have increased their yield by no
less than 90 per cent. This is the
first time since 1922. and only the
fourth time In the history Of the
country. that receipts from internal
revenue taxes have passed the bill
lion-dollar mark. The highly favor
able showing Is due partly to the new
liquor taxes and partly to the greater
yield Of those imposed on the sale OF
motorcars and other industrial prod
ucts.
