MOSCOW, Nov. 8 tBy Wireless)
In prospectus of the world sit
ulation an article in yesterdays az
vestia" pointed to the growth of
economic and political chaos in the
capitalist world as pushing toward
a war which, whenever it begins,
will be a world war" Meanwhile
the Soviet giant looks calmly and
vigilantly on the waves beating
against its shores"
Our Socialist country the ed
itorial continues, is burning with
a great creative fire. In its sons
it awakens a mighty creative COM
petition and great desire for So
cialist labor, giving birth to heroes
whose exploits even our enemies
admire. For the first time in hui
man history the toiling masses re-
ceive freedon-not phantom but
real-when they work and create
for themselves and gradually build
the material conditions for COM
plete and general welfare. This
struggle is difficult, but no power
in the world will stop it, because
the laws of development foretell the
inevitability of the world victory of
the proletariat.
Our country stands like q rock,
and the Red Army guards its in
terests and its independence. The
capitalist chaos is growing in coun-
tries outside the U. S. S. r. The
bourgeoisie cannot get over its post
war crisis. Earthquake shocks,
menacing outbreaks of revolt, spas
modic faScists, all prove that the
underground waters of the revolu-
tionary flood are again rising. The
breakdown of the disarmament
conference, the hopelessness of ne
gotiations limiting naval arma-
ments, the race for air ornaments
show that the world is rushing
toward new inperialist war. The
fascist adventurists are trying to
avoid this general scramble, at
tempting to direct the war into
anti-Soviet channels. But their
hopes of creating a united anti-So-
Wet front and of isolating the So
Wet Union are vain. The contra
dictions of the imperialist powers
are so great that all far sighted ele-
ments understand the inevitability
not only of conflict, but of world
conflict.
But the Soviet Union knows that
its forces are so tremendous that
it can cope with its enemies to their
complete defeat. 1t knows that the
stronger it is, the more it will have
friends for struggle, for peace and
for defense. To attain it's own aims
it does not require war. Therefore
it conducts a determined policy of
peace; therefore it stretches out its
hand to all who do not want war.
Like rock in the storm stands
the giant of October. 1t fights for
peace in behalf of the lives of the
millions who az building, and will
build, Socialism. These millions
know that those who stand at the
head of the Soviet Government,
those who direct the fate of hun
dred and seventy millions, the Com
munist Party, led by the iron Stain,
can wisely direct all the efforts of
the Soviet Union, both for the
preservation Of peace and for vic
tory in case of attack

Blacklisting Continues

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 8. - The
National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers, through its policy
committee, yesterday refused to
take back the thousands of textile
workers who were blacklisted in the
general textile strike.
The textile workers have flooded
the National Textile Labor Rela-
tions Board with complaints re-
garding eviction and blacklist of
thousands. The Textile Board, in
view of this mass protest, was forced
this week to issue statement to
the cotton manufacturers calling on
them to take back the blacklisted
workers and cease evictions.
The refusal to take back the
blacklisted strikers is excused by the
manufacturers on the ground of
lack of orders"
Francis German, leader of the
United Textile Workers Union, sent
the workers back to work last Sep

and without any demands being
won.

joining When the strike was
called of, he did not raise any OBJ

A clear-cut reputation of Cor
man has now become an important
requirement for leadership among
the dye strikers. At todays' strike
meeting in Paterson, one of the
union officials had to assure the
workers that there will be no settle
ment with individual shops. Yes
terday there were reports of such
attempts.
The Foremen's Local, which
represents 500 members, has joined
the strike, and likewise presented
demands for wage increases ranging
up to 20 per cent.
All Shop Chairmen were told to
register all workers of their shop
who are in need of relief. These
the Union Relief Committee will
take to the Emergency Relief au-
thorities and demand that they be
placed on the relief rolls.

Warning that despite expenditure OF

delinquency" the most serious problem
facing the country, Senator Royal S.
Copeland, Democrat, of New York.

ROOSEVELT.WILSON CONTRAST
BASED UPON DISSIMILAR EGOS

President Roosevelt" he said, "pre-
sents a striking contrast. From rather
intimate contact. I have strong feeling
that the main drive of his life is not
craving for personal aggrandizement,
but a sincere, unaffected desire to
promoted the common good"
He injected word of warning.
"It must be remembered" he wrote,
"that for a time President Wilson
rode on a high tide of popularity. His
enemies bided their time and at the
strategic moment overwhelmed his
regime with public scorn and re-
pudiation. The same interests have
the same reasons for the same hatreds
the present administration and are
biding their time to use the same tao
tics In opposing It,"
In comparison, President Roose-
welt seems to be a far more fully de-
veloped person. His intellectual life
and his emotional life seem to be In
harmony. He has far-reaching plans
for social changes and at the same
time has strong feelings or personal
friendship and affection. He not only
has aspirations for mankind, as did
Wilson, but he likes folks

His views were given in an article in

wrote. that he (Wilson) failed. in
sofar as his work did fail, because his
idealism, though genuine, was largely
nullified by his self-centered ambi-
ton to become a great historical
figure. If, instead Of demanding the
position star performer on the in
ternational stage, he had been willing
to be the relatively unknown instru-
ment of a great purpose, his very
great ability might have had fuller ex-
preston and the course Of events
