Sinclair Changes Plans After Visit to Roosevelt

end was a conference with George
Creel, wartime lying propaganda,
red-baiting bloodhound. This con-
ference brought Sinclair closer to
those democratic leaders who previ-
ously did not support him, fearing
the effects of his demagogic propa-
ganda.
A State Convention of the Demo-
cratic Party will be held on Sept.
80, in Sacramento. This will be the
funeral of the great Sinclair EPIC
plan Though Sinclair will retain the
foul demagogic propaganda he used
to win the nomination.. At that
convention platform will be writ
ten to have as its aim winning the
support of the strike breaking ship
owners, Hearst, and every capitalist
agent in California.
Sinclair has already announced
that he will replace his special
brand of Socialist-infuenced dema-
gogy by the out-and-out trade
marked Roosevelt New Deal poison.
In order to get the support of
Hearst and his red-baiting news
paper apparatus, Sinclair has COM
pletely ditched his proposal to re-
peal the sales tax. In other words,
the tax on the necessities of life
of the masses will remain, with
Sinclair as governor, in order to
ease the tax burdens of the million
aire exploiters. This is Hearts
program.
Sinclair's EPIC proposal to pay

promises, and gave him the nomi-
nation, have a great deal to think
about. Sinclair shed these prom
Uses just as easily as he shed his
Socialist shirt. Whatever promises
he makes will meet the same fate.
Sinclair's main object is to help the
Roosevelt regime save capitalism,
and to stave off the revolutionary
maturity and development of the
exploited masses of California.
The fate of Sinclsir's promises, SO
closely connected with Roosevelt's,
should be utilized by every Com
munist and sympathizer in the cleo
ton, showing how every agent of
the capitalists, no matter under
what banner he parades, tricks,
fools, betrays and dupes the work.
ers.
Only the Communist Party has a
program for the immediate needs
of the workers and for the ultimate
solution of their problems-a revo-
lutionary program for Soviet power,
for the dictatorship of the prole-
tariat, for a workers state that will
be undinchingly carried cut by the
mass might of the prolstariat them
selves when they seize state power.

there will be no misunderstanding
about it.
The much-touted plan to give
every unemployed person in Cali
fornia a Job by means of the state
owned factories and special loans
for the purpose has been repudi-
ated by Sinclair after his Roosevelt
Creel conferences.
The plan for communal farms is
dropped.
In order to win the support of
these exploiters who have not until
now relished EPIC, Sinclair goes
still further and modifies his prog
ram on taxation. He promised that
if elected governor he would except
all small business and homes as
sessed at $4,000 from all taxation.
He no longer even promises this,
but cuts the sum down to $1,000.
Most significant of all is that he
has gone completely the Roosevelt
way on the most important question
facing the employed and unem-
ployed in unemployment
insurance. Sinclair now states, in
stead of advocating unemployment
insurance, he will wait for Roose-
welt to announce scheme, and will
adopt whatever Roosevelt offers.

especially from the A. F. of l.. and
Railroad Brotherhoods.
In order to speed this activity,
the Chicago Congress Arrange
ments Committee urges all sup
porters of the struggle against war
and fascism to concentrate espe-
cially in the remaining days before
the Congress on electing delegates
from trade unions. shops, ex-
servicemen's organizations, armed
forces, Negro organizations, youth
and women clubs. For this purpose
a meeting of the Chicago delegates
of organizations which have al
ready chosen representative will
be held on Wednesday at s pm. at
the Medical and Dental Arts Build
ing Auditorium, 1873 N. wabash
Ave, fifth floor. This meeting will
be held in conjunction with a full
meeting of the Chicago Arrange
ments Committee. The agenda pro-
posed for the Congress will be dis
cussed, as well as the issues and
problems confronting the American
working class in the struggle
against war and fascisIn.
The Chicago Congress Arrange
ments Committee, in connection
with the Constitutional Day which
is to be celebrated in Chicago on
Sept. IT, has decided to issue a
special leaflet on this occasion,
pointing out that it is under the
cloak Of preserving the constitution
that all attacks upon the working
class have been carried, especially
as is so clearly demonstrated in the
present bloody attack upon the tex
tile strikers. This patriotic rally
will be utilized by the committee to
rally the workers for the Congress
by issuing leaflets to be distributed
among those who will be assembled
on Constitutional Day at the
Worlds Fair.
More than 250,OOO leaflets have
been issued to the workers of Chi
cago announcing the opening Of
the Congress in the Chicago Coli
scum on Sept. % at 7:30 pm.
Special leaflets are addressed to
trade unions Negro people, to

Threw Bombs Back
Soldiers led by Sergeant Elem

rushed at us with their bayonets

yellow dogs got down behind a ma

Just then the yellow dogs began
throwing gas bombs, but we got
right smart ball players in our
union and we caught the bombs and
threw them back.

our men threw back landed in front

soldiers back and Sergeant Flem-

nets and was taken to the hos

Daily Shock Troopers
OF Philadelphia Raise
$500 At Minor Banquet

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 49,
Having collected over $500 for the
Daily Worker financial drive, more
than 200 shock troopers those most
active in building and spreading
the Daily Worker among the textile
strikers in Philadelphia, gathered
at Robert Minor banquet Satur-
day night at Broad Street Mansions.
James Casey, Jacob Burck and
Harry Cannes, members of the
Daily Worker editorial staff, were
among the speakers.
Stirred by the editorial in the
Daily Worker calling on the Phila-
delphia district to take the lead in
circulating and building the Daily
Worker among the textile workers,
the workers at the banquet pledged
to raise their full quota of $4,000
in the shortest possible time; to
double and triple the circulation of
the Daily in mill towns and to gain
a minimum of fifty new Party
members from among the textile
strikers.
A. w. Mills, district organizer, re-
ported that a beginning had al
ready been made but that greater
efforts would be put into these
tasks.
Workers from radio, hosiery and
textile mills told how the workers
eagerly received and read the
Daily Worker. In some places
where Daily Worker agents pre-
ViouSly were driven away, they are
now protected against the thugs by
the strikers.

News" article continues: per
haps the rural police squad will
turn the crowd back at the side
walk, and in that case, of course,
however much speaking there will
be elsewhere, it will not be on the
Court House steps"
Permit for Meeting Denied
The permit to hold the meeting
was denied by Henry B. Fowler,
chairman of the County Commits
sion. Paul Crouch Communist
Party organizer, in denouncing this
fragrant refusal of the right of free
speech and assemblsge to the Com
munist Party, issued an appeal to
workers through the country to
wire protes to Commissioner
Fowler in Charlotte and demand
that the right to meet be granted
to the workers of Charlotte.
1.-THE Communist Party criticizes
the action of the commissioners in
refusing the Court House as being
an action definitely placing them
on the side of the mill owners
against the striking textile workers
and sympathizers, Crouch told the
press yesterday.
Determined to Meet
1.-THE Communist Party will hold
the meeting and will introduce a
resolution against the use of Ma
tional Guardsmen, and the rein
forcements ordered out yesterday,
and will demand that the funds
which are being spent on the Ma
tional Guard be used for relief of
the striking textile workers"
Crouch charged that Howard
Payne, assistant secretary of the
North Carolina Strike Committee,
was the first to denounce the flying
squadrons and to raise the red
herring"
I'm doing So" Crouch declared.
'he is only trying to cover up his
own reactionary policies. The red
herring is used only by some who
wish to have something to hide be-
hind. An effort to split the ranks
Of the strikers on the basis of Party
membership is an effort to weaken
the strike"

tour of the strike front from Con-
cord, N. G., to Greenville, S. c.

troops attacked a mass picket line
in front of the Gibson Mill on Fri
day and arrested four strikers and
held them on charges of melting to

TOShOW Hitler
Terror Scenes

NEW YORK-"The great masses
of Red Front fighters and anti
fascists of Germany appear before
your eyes under the leadership Of
Ernst Thaelmann, imprisoned Com
muniSt whose liberty the whole
world of workers is now fighting for,
in an historical motion picture
which will be presented at the
Twenty eighth Street Theatre this
week"
This statement was issued yester-
day by the Thaelmann Liberation
Committee, which is now co-ordin-
ating the work of all anti-fascist
organizations in spreading this film.
This film was taken out of Ger
many with great danger and will
be shown together with films of
the Hitler terror, the burning of the
books, the Reichstag fire trial Dini-
troff speaking in court, Dimitroff
in Moscow, and scenes of the mass
struggle to liberate Thaelmann
throughout the major countries of
the world.
The sponsors of the film frankly
admit that the picture does not
have any dramatic story acted out
by professional actors initiating the
various individuals, like Thaelmann,
Clara zetkin, Sen Katayama, Din1i-
troff, Torgler, Van Der Lubbe, Bar
busse, ROLAND and others, but that
instead this historical document is
made up of actual news-reel films
of all these individuals in action, as
well as genuine films of the strug-
giles of the German proletariat COW
ering the period from 1924 to 1888.
The sponsors point out that no
artificial dramatization is necessary.
The story of Thaelmann and Dimi-
troff, of the Hitler terror and the
struggle against it, is one of the
most dramatic stories in all history,
and this film document of that
story will undoubtedly arouse great
masses to join in the fight against
Fascism.
The film will be shown at popu-
lar prices next Wednesday, Thurs
day, Friday, Saturday and Sunday
in continuous performance from
$50 am. to IL pm, at the Twenty
eighth Street Theatre on Broadway.

night before.
This resolution is a major step
in the plan Of the District to double,
at least, the New York circulation
of the Daily Worker, before Jan. l.
At present the city circulation is
1854 copies day.
Stress Added News Value
In making its decision, the secre-
tariat stressed the added news value
the enlarged paper would have for
members of trade unions, the unem-
ployed and members Of fraternal
and cultural organizations. Not
only will the added pages afford
more adequate treatment of the ac-
tivitieS of these working class
groups, but with two New York edi-
tions, one on the streets early in
the evening and the other shortly
before midnight, the paper will be
able to provide its readers with up
to the minute news.
The success of the eight-page
paper, the Secretariat pointed out.
is based upon its widest circulation
a m on 6 the masses-particular
among members of A. p. of L.
unions, among the revolutionary
and independent unions, among the
unemployed and the Negro people.
These must be reached with the
New York Daily Worker.
$4,000 Fund Needed
The drive for 100000, the secre-
tariat further pointed out, is mex
tricsbly wound up with the cam
paign for circulation. The s6o0oo
is necessary for the increased size
and editions. With the improved
paper it will be considerably easier
to carry out the resolution of the
eighth convention for a minimum
Of $4,000 readers by Jan. l.
All sections Of the Party, mass or
carnations and trade unions are
urged by the Secretariat to imrne-
dlately make plans for large orders
and distribution. The New York
Daily Worker should receive wide
and continual publicity throughout
the city, and canvasserS and speak
erS should make the paper and it's
Soo,OOo drive a special point on
every occasion. The influence of
the Daily Worker is growing stead
lily and rapidly and, as our two

paign showed, it is an easy seller,

Negro Defends
White Women
In Atlanta Case
lsneelnI % N. Dale work.rl

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. 16.-When
John H. Geer, Negro lawyer of At
lants, who together with Ben Davis
defended Angelo Herndon, appeared
yesterday as defense counsel for
Leah Young and Annie Mae Leath-
ers, arrested textile pickets, South
ern history was made. For the
first time q Negro was defending
native-born white Southern women
in the courts.
Prosecutor Hudson yesterday Of
fered to reduce their bail from
$1,000 each if the two women would
promise TO stop their activity
among the strikers. Both refused.
Mrs. Leah Young, the mother of
five children, issued the following
statement from the Fulton County
Jail in refusing Hudson's strike
breaking offer:
"We Southern white women are
waking up. We have been enslaved
by the bosses long enough and have
stood all the pressure we can bear.
If I have to lose my life, children
and all, I am going to remain in the
struggle for the liberation of the
white and Negro workers"
Alarmed by the spreading of the
textile strike, Governor Talnadge
yesterday ordered two companies of
the National Guard to Gainesville,
although martial law has not been
proclaimed. The Griffin Mill at
Griffin, Ca, closed down on Thurs
day. A flying squadron of textile
strikers from Trlon and striking
stove workers from Rome, Ca,
closed down the mill at Aragon,
bringing to IS the number of mills
closed by flying squadrons.
The calling out of the National
Guard followed a conference be-
tween the Governor and a group of
mill operators and T. M. Forbes,
secretary of the Cotton Manufac-
turers' Association of the State.

trance to the town, every mill is
shut down. Pickets working in six
hour shifts patrol every entrance to
the plants both day and night.
net even a louise can get through
these lines an overalled picket ex-
planned.
The only break in the whole
strike-front came yesterday at
Union, 8. c., where U.T.W. leaders
urged the workers to call of the
strike and return to work on Mon
day. This section, which is COM
manded by John Peel, third vice.
president of the U.T.W., is the
weakest in the South, due to Peel's
efforts to halt all militant picket
ing and flying squadron activities.
Peel Balks at Unity
Yesterday Peel announced that he
had refused an offer of the local
Communist Party for united front
action to strengthen the strike.
PeePs statement to the press said
In keeping with the policy de-
fined by the National Strike Com
mittee, this office has today de-
clined an offer of assistance from
a representative Of the Communist
Party"
A huge mass-meeting was held in
Gastonia this afternoon and was
attended by workers from the Bel
mont area, which is struck 100 per
cent. Plans we're worked out there
for an intensification of mass pick
citing to meet increased efforts of
the mill owners to open the mills
on Monday.
