Communists" the Order of '76.
There are a wooden bench and
several desks in Room 703. To the
right as you enter are two more
rooms, each with desks at which
serious locking men sit studying
papers; and 10 the left, Room 704,
is another office the one where the
files are kept and where Royal
Scott Gulden of the mustard king
family acts as secretary of the
espionage society and as director of
spreading the hate the Jew" creed.
1t is an exclusive organization, this
one on the seventh floor of the
building 1t takes into it's member
ship only men and women in the
higher strata" of the military,
business and political worlds Of
the country" They want to save
America from falling into the hands
of the Jews and The Communists"
r. S. Gulden himself is a neatly
dressed, middle aged man with
grazing temples, thinning hair and
washed-out gray eyes. He was at
his desk, heaped high with letters
and clippings when I walked in.
The two men with whom he was
talking urrcd around quickly while
all of them looked at me with a
startled air. Strangers do not wan
der into these offices by accident.
Gulden raised his eyes interroga-
lively, pleasant smile spreading
over his pale face.

in on me almost automatically.

HR 1898 Main Weapon
Women Have Against
Fascist Degradation

NEW YORK.-On Sept. q, the
New York Herald Tribune Confer
ence on Current Problems heard
Dorothy Thompson, the note d
newspaper correspondent and writer
who was recently expelled rom
Germany, declare that in the whole
western world outside Of the Sovie
Union the condition Of women was
Tetrog-cssing. Her statement was
supported by Frau Mathilde Wurm,
a former member Of the Reichstag
now in exile, who described The lie
ploTeble plight of women under The
Eazi regime
The Conference was organized by
The Fera'd Tribune as an intel
lectual tidbi for its clu5women
readers. The well-fed and we'll
dressed women from Park Ave. ard
Long Island listened to President
Roosevelt broadcast from Washing
ton that all was well in the United
States and that the American
people had both feet on the
ground" He did no add that he
was doing his best to drive them
underground by starving them TO
death with his new hunger deal.
The working women Of this coun-
try should pay great deal Of at
tention to the remarks Of Miss
Thompson and Frau Wurm. Miss
Thompson pointed to the fact nat
in European countries the condi-
ton Of women, legolly, politically,
and economically, judged by the
standards Of fifteen years ago, does
not show progress, but retrogres-
sion" She brought out that this
was especially true in fascis coun-
tries like Germany and Italy. The
one exception to this negative
development was in the Soviet
Union
Frau Wurm charged that the
Hitlerites had driven German wo-
men back to medieval conditions.
The legal, political and economic
equality of the sexes had been en-
rely abolished" Their education
has been restricted; they have been
driven out of economic and public
life; they have been reduced to a
position Of serfdom. She described
how the Nazis had driven 10000
young girls into unpaid household
labor. Upper class parasites have
kept these helpless victims in
state Of seni-slavery.
THESE conditions are already par
L alleled to some extent in this
coun ry. There is Mrs. Roosevelt's
pet scheme of forced labor for wo-
men. There is the cons ant en-
phasis that wmen should devote
themselves exclusively to raising
babies and that women should get
out Of industry and the professions
in order to make jobs for men.
The burden of unemployment is
thus to be shifted to the backs Of

lie concluded that was impossible
to frame any program Of action
that would assure social and

The wealthy ladies who APP
plaudsd Dr. King and the whole
ruling class would like the unem-
2oyed workers to believe that
women are responsible for their
misery and that unemployment in
5urance is q utopian dream. But
hat is because they do not want
their pCokctbocks to be touched.
The only way to prevent American
working women from being de-
graded to the miserable position
Of women under fascism is to push
through the fight to preserve the
living standards Of the unemployed
by forcing Congress 10 enact H. r.
1898, the Workers Unemployment
and Social Insurance Bill. Men
and women both will benefit from
the provisions of the bill.
II. r. 1898 will prevent the bosses
III from using young girls to UNDER
cut the pay Of family men. It will
prevent women from becoming the
serfs of the wealthy parasites who
we're told by DR.. King hat social
security was pipe dream. His
contention that the workers and
their wives are doomed to eternal
suffering is Of piece with all fas-
cist statements that the working
class must ighten it's belts so that
the rich can continue to plumber
and loot to their hearts content.
What is in store for the workers,
if they do not fight for unemploy-
ment insurance, can be realized
from statement recently made by
Mussolini. He declared that Eve
are probably moving toward a period
Of humanity reposing on a lower
standard of life. Present day
humanity Is very strong and is
capable of asceticism such as we
perhaps have no conception Of"
The example of the Soviet Union
is the best answer of the working
class to such bilge. Social and
economic security can be estab-
lished. A higher standard Of living
can be achieved.
The answer lies in wrestling these
things from the cabinet class in
this country. In H. r. 1898 the
workers have an instrument with
which they can gain a certain
measure of security, protect their
living standards, and take a long
step towards proving that they will
not resign themselves to the fate
that Mussolini and DR.. King plan
for them.

He raised his head and looked at
