NEW FREEDOM"
WALLACE TOPIC
Secretary of Agriculture
Describes Rights of Citi-
zens Under New Deal.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press
CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y, July S.
Secretary of Agriculture Henry A.
Wallace in a Fourth of July speech
here likened the rights and duties of
citizens under the new deal to those
which prevailed under the new free
dom" of President woodrow Wilson
and the battle of the colonists for
freedom as expressed in the Declara-
ton of independence.
1.-The new freedom as visualized by
Wilson" he said, had to do with
shaking government loose from the
shackles placed upon it by private
business working in underhand, de-
yiOuS ways.
To-day we have come to the time
of another freedom. but We call it
the new deal It is well for us to
ask now what are our rights in this
new freedom of 1884 and what duties
we must assume before we can en-
JOY these rights. Obviously. if We
are to have freedom with safety We
must accept some social discipline"
He said that RECOMMENDATION In the
sense as used by critics of the new
deal has no part in the new freedom
but the assumption of duties and So
cial discipline cannot be avoided. Ger
tain controls have been made neces-
sary during the last year and may
perhaps be necessary for a number
of wears"
"I conceive it to be one of the needs
of the hour" he said, Ito restore the
processes of common counsel and to
substitute them for processes of prt-
vate arrangement which now deter
mine policies of cities, States and
nations. We must learn that we are
free to meet as our fathers did some
how. somewhere for consultation.
There must be discussion and debate
in which all freely participate. 1t
must be a candid debate and it must
have for its honest purpose clearing
up Of questions and establishing Of
truth. Too much political discussion
Is not to honest purposes. but only
for the confounding of opponents"

BY BILL DUNE

THE New York Post has made an
1 effort to ridicule the city police
force and it's Red List"-it has
tried to pooh-pooh the seriousness
Of the attitude of the police and the
LaGuardia administration toward
the unemployed by playing up the
prominent character of the people
whose names were recorded in the
billing manual.
We have characterized the list of
names as fascist collection. Well
known people, writers, etc., whose
names we're included have treated
the matter loosely.
But the organizations which have
fascist program and are engaged
in organizing campaigns of violence
in cooperation with the authorities
against striking workers and the
unemployed, take the list quite seri-
ously. Democratic-minded liberals
never take the Il. ace of fascism
seriously until they feel its clubs
and see the doors of its torture cells
opening for them.

In order to show tho direct connec-

organizations and leaders and
against the Communists, we quote
at some length from a bulletin is

Vigilantes in Seattle:
"And this from M.WI.U. Voice,

an agreement regardless Of their

ror to drive them back to work.
The strikers should be well pre-
pared for such sell-out and re-
sist it vigorously. That they
understand their leaders is shown
by the fact that they made the

1t is not possible to mistake the
fascist and military character of
such statements. The A. V. bulletin
continues:

against the racketeers and their
class collaboration policies has
been growing continuously. In
this election, the program and
candidate put forward by the rank
and file have the mass support of
the painters. This program calls
for rank and file control of the
organization for the mobilization
of the painters to fight for the
80 hour week, increase in wages,
unemployment insurance, for shop
committees to guarantee the en-
forcement of the agreements and
for a united struggle of all work
ers against the bosses.
This program which deals with
the real needs of the members Of
the Brotherhood, must receive the
most enthusiastic support of all
workers regardless of their views
or opinions. The election of the
rank and file leadership on the
basis of this program will go a
long way toward eliminating the
evils from which the painters have
been suffering for many years and
will help to unite the ranks of
all painters on the basis of a
common program for the improve
ment of the conditions in the
trade.
The members of the Brotherhood
must realize that the elimination
of the misleaders, who are respon-
sible for the split in the ranks of
the painters and have stood in the
way of unity in the trade, with
the election of an honest rank and
file leadership will be an impor-
tant step towards developing one
fighting union, controlled by the
painters for their own interest.

there is nothing casual or accidental
about the "Red List" of Mayor La

Neither is it just coincidence
that the magazine To-day" edited
by Professor Raymond Moley, one
of Roosevelt's most intimate adj

for the opening of the campaign of

Dunno Exposes Strikebreakers
William F. Dunno, Of the Ma
tional Committee of the Trade
Union Unity League, in Washington
with militant steel delegation, re-
vealed the strikebreaking history of
the new Roosevelt Board chairman,
Dunno commented:
An Old Strikebreaker
"The Rt. Rev. Edward J. Hanna
was auxiliary Bishop of San Fran
cisco during 1912-1913. His church
had heavy investments in Pacific
Gas and Electric stock-an amount
estimated at that time at some
So 900, 900. The church functionary
took a leading part in breaking the
strike of the Electrical Workers
Union, of which was an officer at
that time, against the P. G. and E.
Strike breaking local organizations
were formed with the cooperation
of the Rev. Hanna"
President Roosevelt took this
drastic action against the historic
Pacific Coast strike under the au-
thority of the new Roosevelt COM
pulsory arbitration act which was
substituted for the Wagner bill.
The creation of the longshore-
mems labor board co-incided with
news that National Guardsmen
we're standing-by in San Francisco.
At the same time the Roosevelt
administration received word from
the National Labor Boards agent,
Major John D. Moore, in Milwau-
kee, that the Railway Garments
strike looked hopeful" for settle
ment. Moore sadly reported, how
ever, that there is still 'rioting'-
which is the strike breakers word
for mass struggle against strike
breaking.
Silent on Steel
In the midst of these develop
ments, President Roosevelt told the
press that he is not ready to talk
about the steel situation, but will
DO so after seeing Secretary of La
Dor Frances Perkins. Asked to COM
ment upon the Steel and Metal
Workers Industrial Union proposals
for meeting steel workers gTiev-
ances by drastic characterization of
elections in the steel industry,
Roosevelt declared he had not seen
these. They were published in vir-
tually every newspaper in the coun-
try. in addition to being presented
directly to Labor Department Of

Acting General Secretary of the
Alteration Painters Union

NEW YORK. - Tomorrow the
members of the Brotherhood of
Painters will be called upon to vote
for officers to administer the affairs
of the union during the coming
year. This election has aroused
widespread interest amongst the
masses Of the painters not only of
the Brotherhood but also among the
membership of the Alteration
Painters Union as well as the I'M
organized painters. In this cleo
ton some of the most vital issues
confronting the masses of painters
have been brought to the fore front.
The members of the Brotherhood
have for years been a prey to the
most ruthless gang of racketeerS.
Strikes were sold out and conditions
won by the workers though strug-
giles were undermined. In addition
to the hundreds of thousands of dol
lars extorted from the workers in
the forms of dues and taxes to
racketeers under the leadership of
zausner, they collected thousands
of dollars in graft.
Racketeers Spell Ruin
The workers have long realized
that the dead weight of this rack
eteer outfit has spelled ruin to the
thousands of painters and their
families. They have realized that
as a result of the stronghold of
this corrupt machine, thousands of
painters have remained morgan
lied and in order to protect their
interests, we're forced to organize
into the Alteration Painters Union
which since its existence has fought
to defend the interest of the work
ers and has succeeded in gaining
many Improvements of conditions.
The Alteration Painters Union
from the very first day of its exist
ence has fought for unity in the
ranks of the workers and has di-
rected itself time and again to the
Brotherhood for united action in
defense of the interest of the
workers. The racketeers in control
on the Brotherhood have turned
down our proposals for unity and
instead of uniting with us, they
have made united front with the
bosses against both the members of
the Brotherhood and the members
Of the Alteration Painters.
The revolt in the ranks of the
members of the Brotherhood

tators shall not be permitted to
undermine the American ideal
of human liberty and ordered
freedom under law. Order and
constitutional government will be
maintained"
"On citizens of California there
rests patriotic obligation to re-
sis the destructive Vaccinations of
organized Communism; to make
known, in every relationship of
their daily lives, that they will not
countenance violence and sabo-
tage."
Connected With Recovery Program
Is it not clear that the police
drive against unemployed and
strikers and the growing campaign
violence against workers, with the
Communist Party as its main
target, since it alone exposes the
monopoly capital, hunger, war and
fascist character of the New Deal,
results directly from the Roose-
velt program of national re-
covery" which is based on star
walton standard of living for the
toiling section of the population?
