A buying rush of near boom
proportions in retail trade con-
tinued outstanding in the busi-

Bradstreet declared in it's week
end review today. The survey
added:
even though the real spring
temperatures of the weekend
were followed by chilly winds,
these failed to stay the parade
Of Easter shoppers, whose
ranks were augmented daily
and by mid-week had reached
the largest size since Christ"
mas"
HIGHEST IN 3 YEARS
The pronounced bulge in de-
mand which followed, it was
stated, brought retail sales fol
the week to the highest level for
the comparative period in three
years. Volume was put IS to
so per cent above a year ago
and some sections exceeded the
1892 figures by 10 to IL per cent.
The review declared:
Retailers have been par
ticularIy encouraged by the
large movement Of luxury lines
and are almost uniformly In
good spirit"
Gains, it was reported, were
particularly large in cities
throughout the South Atlantic
States, Southwest, Middle West
and Pacific Coast, with mail or.

Just as the tourist en- route to
California, plans his itinerary to
include a side, trip through the
Yellowstone and other National
Parks Of the west and Northwest,
the Floridians plan to have the
Southern tourist make the Ever
glades visit the last of the South
ern park chain.
Ernest F. Coe, chairman Of the
executive council Of the Ever
glades National Park Association,
Is In Washington at this time to
pursuade Congress to pass a bill
accepting the park as a gift. It
will cost the Federal Government
nothing, but the park will be in
corporated in the National PARK
system Of the country.
Many things are said OF the
park by way of inducement.
It is the only tropical park In
the United States, being situated
in q latitude more southern than
the tip Of Texas.
It is most unique as to topog-
raphy, flora and fauna. Indeed,
those who have explored it say 1t
includes virtually every type OF
vegetation found in the Amazon
jungles, and as a sanctuary for
birds and other wild life, such a
habitat, comprising as it does
every necessary element, could not
be found elsewhere.
The bill, introduced in Congress
early during the session, is still
milling through the committee
hearings. It may be passed this
session.

The Street, however, has too
many things on its mind now to
pay much attention to this.
Market followers of commercial
solvents expect an increase in the
dividend at the May meeting of
the board. Expectations are that
the current 60-cent rate will be
restored to the 81 payment previ-
ouSly in effect. Earnings for the
first quarter are estimated at bet
ter than so cents share. Chart
readers are becoming impressed
with the action of the liquor
stocks generally.
Sir Henri Deterding and the
Rockefellers must be getting
pretty chummy these days. {.
Quite a change from former
times when Royal Dutch and the
Standard Oil family were at each
others throats for supremacy in
the world petroleum markets.
We understand a lot of pressure
is being brought on Socony
Vacuum to rescind its gasoline
price cut. The slowness with
which other companies are meet
ing the reduction indicates their
reluctance to follow.
An interesting sidelight is that
agents of the oil administrative
board have been in the city for
several days.
IT'S said they are looking into
the gasoline competitive situation
in the metropolitan area in view
Of the second price war in less
than three months.

The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-03-05
Finnish Socialist Leaders Follow Path of Otto Bauer Austria

cisions of bourgeois courts, when they
carried on heroic struggles against
the Social Democratic police forces,
now the Social Democratic leaders
once again betrayed the workers by
praying to Dollfuss for mercy and by
fleeing the country, placing blame on
the workers for taking arms.
But there is nothing so strange in
this. All the time since Hitler has
been in power, and while two fascist
groups have been growing in Austria,
one led and financed by Hitler and
the other by Mussolini, these same
Social Democratic leaders have sup
ported Dollfuss's fascist group and
fascist guard, the Heimwehr, which
are supported by Mussolini, as g.
lesser evil"
When tie Communist Party was
banned and driven into illegality, the
Austrian Social-Democrati leaders
refused to form a workers united
front against fascism, which the
Communist Party increasingly pro-
posed.
And further, when Dollfuss dis
banded the defense group (Schutz-
bund of the Socialists, the Social
Democratic leaders saw no danger of
fascism in this, but continued to sup
port Dollfuss's fascism-without even
speaking of trying to organize the
workers to strike down fascism.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-03-05

For this reason 1t was easy for
Dollfuss to crush with united fascist
forces the workers who defended
themselves with arms, who fought
heroically and shed their blood in
struggle against the murderouS bands
of DollfuSs. 1t must be taken into
consideration that the Communist
Party of Austria is small, and the in
f1uence of the Social-Democrats
among the workers is great, so the
Communist Party was not able to
take sufficiently strong position of
leadership in the struggle.
But these recent struggles and ex-
periences have undoubtedly proved to
the workers Of Austria that without
the firm leadership Of the Communist
Party, the workers cannot succeed In
their struggle against the bour-
geoisie.
The situation in Finland is now
developing along the same lines as
in Austria, with the exception that
the Communist Party has never been
legal party in Finland. But the role
of Social-Democracy in paving the
road for fascism is the same as in
Austria.
Finland Is Next?
The bourgeoisie of Finland formed
partly fascist regime already in
1880. 1t took place through the So
called Lappo- uprising. At that time

MuSSOlini Bids To
Be kingpin in Bloc
OF Danube States

ROME, March An an effort to
snatch leadership of the Danubian
countries away from France, and at
the same time freeze out Germany,
Mussolini has arranged a conference
between himself, Chancellor Dollfuss
Of Austria and Premier GomboeS of
Hungary in Rome March IA to 16.
In this conference, it is announced,
he will seek to push the plan he
announced last summer for organic
ing a political and economic bloc of
the Danubiap countries, under his
leadership
The conflicts among the Danubian
states formed from the fragments of
the Austro- Hungarian empire after
the war have been an obstacle to
the organization of a solid anti
Soviet front of European powers.
France, Germany, and Italy are
fighting for the leadership of such
a bloc. France has tried in vain for
two years to organize it, and the
Nazi aggression against Austria is
Germany's method of seeking to be
the one to carry it out.

been rebuilt, the proletariat could
take power into its hands by demo
cratic means" This would be the
path of peaceful development" to-
ward Socialism.
If the proletariat of Austria, in the
year 1919, when Soviet state was
set up in Hungary, had taken the
path it wished to take-the path of
forming Soviets-this would undoubt-
edly have helped the proletarian rev.
olutions in Hungary and other coun-
tries. But the influence of the Social
Democratic leaders on the Austrian
proletariat was too great; and when
they wanted bourgeois democracy, the
proletariat of Austria could not form
a dictatorship of the proletariat.
But has Adler's and Otto Bauers
road led to Socialism? Far from it:
this road has led to the bloody fas-
cist dictatorship of Dollfuss, which is
tearing limb from limb the cream of
the Austrian workers, who had to
take arms to defend their rights when
Dollfuss destroyed and banned all
organizations that were proletarian
in nature even though Social-Demo-
cratic in name.
Two Groups But Both Fastest
And just as in 1927, when the work
ers of Vienna organized mighty dem
onstrations against the shameful de-
