What the Workers in
Mecca Temple
Applauded
(By HATHAWAY

Between a Fascist and a Com
muniSt nothing can be settled by
debate. This issue will be settled on
the barricades. Dennis represents a
putrid, decaying capitalist system.
He represents the most reactionary
section of the capitalist class. He
represents the bloodhoundS, the
murder gangs of the capitalists that
has for its purpose the suppression
OF the working class, and which
would force the workers to con-
tinue to live under a bankrupt CAPT
talist system"
1.-THE Communist speaker comes
here as fighting spokesman for
the new social order History has
shown that the struggle between
Fascism and Communism will be
settled only on the barricades.' "
4
Fascist leaders seeking power
promise to benefit everybody; but
in Office they act like Mussolini
and Hitler All the workers will get
will be prison, torture and murder"
mr.. Dennis says he seeks work
| able economy. The Soviet Union
has workable economy: it has
steadily moved forward with its
first and second Five Year Plan to
greater and greater achievements,
under the leadership of the Com
munist Party"
Mr.. Dennis says we cannot judge
FaScism now because it is in a
period of transition; well, so is
Communism in a period of transit
ton, but which way is this transit
ton proceeding? Fascism is pro-
ceeding backwards, lowering the
standards of the working class, sup
pressing the working class, while
Communism is raising the living
standards of the workers and pro-
ceeding to classics society"
eve don't need any elite to come
and tell the workers how to rule. +"
1--WE see increasing discomfort in
the United Statesmen only among
workers, but among farmers, in
tellectuals and small business men
in revolt against capitalism"
"The role of my opponent
/ (Dennis) is to help in the organi-
zation of the American Storm
Troopers by appealing to the most
! reactionary sentiments among the
masses; his role is to help organize
murder gangs against militant
working class groups"
"These Fascists must be driven
out of existence by the revolution
airy working class movement. We
/ cannot wait until Fascism has
gathered that strength which will
enable it to take power. Against
every fascist blow, a counter-blow
by the working class!"
1.-THE Communist Party will not
enter coalitions with the bourgeoisie
like the Social-Democratic leaders
did in Germany and in Austria. -
eve Communists alone can solve
the problem of the crisis"
1.-THE Communist Party dedicates
itself to mobilize every last man to
meet these people in deadly combat
with the intention of preventing
their taking power-and for the re-
organization of the complete social
system in the United States"
1.-THE Communists don't take their
hats off to anybody on the ques-
ton Of patriotism. We love this
country as much as the fascists do
We have been here just as long as
they have-and some Of US longer
And precisely for the reason that
we care for this country, we are
going TO take it over"
'gThe Fascist program will be re-
jected by the workers-the workers
will strive to mobilize the farmers,
the Negroes, the middle class, for
war to the death against Faseism
and for a Soviet system in Amer
ica!"
