Council.
Grooming Their Man
And in the heavy construction
industry the Regional Labor Board
is aiding and abetting Mr.. Charles
johnson, president Of Carpenters
Local 1456 and notorious labor mis-
leader. The NR.A. is grooming this
man to head the movement with
the purpose Of beheading it.
In this widespread developing
strike movement it is the militant
rank and file within the unions
alone who can save the situation.
The rank and file will be able to
deal with the NR.A. as it should
be dealt with-as a strike breaking
organization. Mr.. Golden knows
this That is the reason he has
adopted the tactic of ignoring the
rank and file and militant leader

ences are called with the bosses.

must come forward as the leaders
Of the struggle.
To assure victory in the coming
strikes in New York the first pre-
requisite is to strengthen the rank
and file opposition.
For Mr.. Golden cannot kid the
rank and file.

They Organize No Mass
Protest Against the
Use of Troops

Neylan, the police and troops of the
state and city government, and the
A. F. of L. leaders, was strike
breaking united front aimed to
maintain non-union conditions in
California. 1t carried on under the
slogan "the general strike is revo-
luton" A strike of 10000 workers
was characterized as the plot of q
few agitators.
The Red Scare of the employers
in which the A. F. of L. leaders
play leading role, portrays great
struggles of hundreds of thousands
of workers, as the work of few
agitators, 1t thus tries to distract
attention from the grievances OF
these thousands of strikers.
THE employers are determined not
to increase wages. They are de-
terminde to install the company
union and smash the genuine unions
of the workers. They are trying
through severe terror to smash the
strike wave of the workers from
coast to coast, and thus defeat Their
demands.
The A. F. of L. officialdom has
supported the employers govern
ment in these aims from the start.
They are supporting the fascist
terror now. The A. F. of L. lead
ers declare against all strikes in
principle. They want to render
the workers defenseless by betray-
ing them to arbitration of the
government boards-the very gov
eminent which is shooting them
down on the picket lines and
which is carrying on the drive
against their living standards.
William Green and his fellow bu-
reaucratS defeated the demands of
the miners, the steel workers and
auto workers through Roosevelt ar
bitration boards. The A. F. of L,
leaders supported and praised the
wage cutting, strikebreaking N.R.A.
from the start.
NOW, With terror raging against
the strikers from coast to coast, the
A. F. of L. bureaucrats, contrary to
rallying mass support for the strik-
ers, gave aid and comfort to the
murderers of the workers by split
ting up the strikers. They are in
the forefront of the fascist drive
against the working class organi-
cations.
The fascist trend of the A. F. of
L. leaders, once more emphasizes the
burning necessity for the building of
rank and file opposition groups in
the A. F. of l.. unions.

Olson's political machine has one
of its strongest bases in the A. F
of L. offlcialdom, many of whom
are Farmer-Labor party leaders
The CLU. leaders did not arouse
the workers against the dangers o.
martial law. They remained passive
while Olson's national guard troop;
made the strike ineffective by es-
corting the trucks.
They made no attempt to rally
the Minneapolis workers for mass
picketing, to combat the terror of
OlsOn's troops, or to spread the
strike.
The Red Scare
THE leaders of the A. F. of L., II
4 their increased use Of open fas.
cist methods, supporting the strike
breaking terror of the government
employ the Red Scare.
The Red Scare is the weapon
used to isolate the most active and
militant trade union members
from the masses, to split the ranks
of the strikers, to destroy their
morale. 1t is employed in order
to divert attention from the eco
nOmic demands of the masses for
which the strike is called, and to
substitute the impression that a
few outsiders" have caused the
strike for some sinister designs.
1t is an attempt 20 behead the
strikes by attributing to the mill
tant strike leaders motives at vari-
ance with the aims of the rank
and file in the struggle. Under
cover of the Red Scare the strike
is broken.

Party it means the District and sec
ton leadership and the member
ship, it means Communist long
shoremen and seamen.
Points Out Weaknesses
There were, however, number of
serious weaknesses, of which the
chief political weakness was some
times a certain hesitation and fear
of the task of exposure of the mis-
leaders. the tendency to criticize
the misleaders only after their be-
trayals and not to warn the work.
ers before hand. There was even
certain tendency to theorize this
weakness, TO place the question this
way: the main danger is the I'M
skillful or too hssty exposure of
the A. F. of L. bureaucrats; there
is no danger on the side of delayed
exposure or failure to expose them.
The understanding and overcoming
of this weakness played a vital role
in determining the degree of the
Party's political success in CONSOLE
dating our influence among the
workers, in consolidating the revo-
lutionary understanding which the
workers gained from this strike ex-
perience, etc. The District must set
itself the task of decisiyely roofing
out such tendencies.
The San Francisco general strike
gives to the Party and to the whole
working class many rich lessons
which we must carefully study and
bring to the broad mass of the
workers. Additional material will
be brought out in the press very
shortly.

did not ask us where he really is.
We could have told him that to-

party, the Communist Party. How
ever, if Gulden told the truth it
would let the cat out of the bag

A SURVEY of the current
IA financial reports reveals
that the Roosevelt N. R. A.
program is giving Wall Street
investors the latest profits
they have reaped in the last
three years.
Dividend checks mailed out during
the month of July to the handful OF
stockholders who control the major
part of the country's industry
amounted to $132,9O9,OOO, a sum
that topped the high figure Of last
year 1885, 900.
This food of dividend income to
handful of parasites at the rate OF
more than $30,000,OO0 a week will be
increased as the year passes on since
July payments are usually considered
light.
Raise Dividend Rates
So golden a harvest has been
gathered by Wall Street corpora
tons under the wage-slashing, price
raising program of Roosevelt, that
81 companies declared extra divi-
dends this July as compared with II
companies last year.
And whereas last year, SO COM
panies reduced their dividend pay
ments, this year only 10 companies
found it necessary to do so, while
10 companies increased their rates.
These enormous profits do not by
any means indicate that the Ameri-
can bourgeoisie has solved the basic
questions of the crisis or that the
conditions of the masses have i'm
proved.
Instead all the economic and
financial data confirms the estimate
of Comrade Stain and the theses of
the Thirteenth Plenum of the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Commun-
list International that the bourgeoi-
sic has succeeded in overcoming the
lowest point of the crisis only at the
expense of the masses, and that the
forces making for the intensified
ton of the world crisis of capital
ism continue to deepen.

purpose of claiming labor to the
rcactionary ideas Of the capitalists.
Organized particularly to combat
working class ideas in schools and
churches, the Paul Reveres get a
small pat on the back for its fas-
cist activities from Mr.. Kinsley. The
Paul Reveres are more or less the
private property Of the publishers
of the Tribune. The American Vigi-
liant Intelligence Federation and the
notorious "Americanization" depart
ment Of the American Legion, it
seems, have not been able to cope
with the rapid left swing of the
workers.
The Trib's hack writer is forced
to mention, however, that, due to
all these factors, "the Communist
Party continues its work from head
quarters at 101 S. Wells ST."

ing of the battle
Seventeen bombers of a theoreti-
cal attacking fleet penetrated a
Gordon of defending planes and an

ern suburbs Of the capital and,
swooping down to drop theoretical

The problem was an attack on
Paris from the German frontier,

Rainbow, Vanderbilt syndicate
entry, is riding high despite early

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 30.-Am-
ulets, charms, tokens, tali5mans
and pet superstitions never took a
finer licking than when Schoolboy
Rowe, the pride of El Dorado, sub,
had his large freckled ears knocked
loose by the Philadelphia Athletics.
When Schoolboy took the firing
line for the Detroit Tigers yester-
day in an effort to win his seven
teenth consecutive victory and
thus establish a new record for the
American League, he was literally
walking curio shop.
Scattered about his person were
all sorts of odd items. In his hip
pocket was a faded, rusty Canadian
penny, a copper piece from the
Netherlands. and two plugged Chin
ese coins. Under his cap, nesting
in his hair, was a rabbits foot, re-
moved from the luckieSt Of all rab-
bits. one shot in graveyard at
midnight. Somewhere else was a
jade elephant. and somewhere else,
and most potent of all, were four
feathers plucked from a three leg
ged ROSTERS tail.
With these things so nearby, ex-
erting high-pCWered luck with each
rise and fall of his arm, Schoolboy
felt he couldn't fail Had they not
brought him through 16 games
without a miss? Had they not ral-
lied to his aid when a leg injury
spoiled his fast ball, by adding cum
ming to his curves, stuff to his
change OF pace?
Yes, but-and this is why he
dropped them softly from the six-
teenth floor of his hotel last night
they failed him miserably in his
hour of greatest need. With but one
game-nine innings, 81 outs-aWay
from writing his name higher than
that of any pitcher who ever threw
EN- down the slot in the American,
the charms went haywire.
The luck tokens need not feel
harshly toward Schoolboy because
he threw them out the window. for
he and Mickey Cochrane gave them
every chance to work. Schoolboy
could have been excused for throw
ing them away as early as the
fourth inning when the AS nit his
Sunday pitches for two runs.
Certainly he had every right to
lose faith in the fifth when he was
treated like a busher and slapped
for five runs. But he refused TO
loose faith. II was not until the
seventh, when his outfielders start
ed asking for bicycles, did School
boy give up. And to be absolutely
truthful about it, he didn't give up
then. 1t was Cochrane who did
the giving up; Cochrane who wav-
ed him TO the showers.
That must have been long walk
for Schoolboy-that jaunt from the
boX to the dugout. Even with his
length Of leg. His chance of doing

RING CAREER
NEARING END

NEW YORK. Aug. 80. UP)-
That gallant little fighting man
26-year old Tony Canzoneri, once
holder of three recognized world
championships, was thwarted i'll
his bid for fourth at Ebbett's
field last night.
Harry Dublinsky. Chicago's new
est fighting sensation, administer
ed the licking to the bull-shoulder-
ed little Italian from New Orleans,
battering the aging Tony unmercl-
fully.
Tony quit the ring with his left
eye oozing blood, his nose pulpy
and disfigured, his lips a red, ug-
ly mass where he had caught near
ly everything the rangy, lean-flank-
ed Dublinsky had to throw.
The husky little veteran start
ed fast, and seemed almost on the
verge of scoring knockout.
Weighing 134lh pounds against Du-
blinskys 139, he rocked tn e
Chicagoan a staggering right hook
to the temple, swarmed over him
and sent him reeling against the
ropes with a left hook to the jaw
near the END of the opening rounc.
After the third round, however,
it was all over. Dublinsky increas-
ed his pace steadily, taking advan-
tage of Tony's tiring legs. In the
last two rounds he lathered the
Italian with a bombardment to the
