ing class, with the darkening
clouds of war and fascism all
around us, every staunch Bolshevik
in America must not only greet the
Anniversary of the Daily Worker.
We must also pledge our utmost
support for our strongest Com
munist defense and protect our
revolutionary paper. We must
pledge ourselves to spread its pow
erful influence to the masses every
where. Make it in reality our pa
per. Put it in the hands of the
toilers everywhere-farmers, work
ers, youth. BY this determined eff
fort to build the paper, we shall
build our united fronts, our unions,
and our Party.

They know that in Lenins teachings the Ameri
can working class will be able to see through all
the frauds of the New Deal and smash the rule of
Wall Street.
But neither Wall Streets nor its most poisonous,
yellow Journalists, like Hearst, will be able to keep
Leninism from the American working class. Among
the oppressed and poverty-stricken, Leninism is
taking deeper and deeper roots
Lenin taught the workers how to fight for their
day to day interests, for better conditions, for
higher wages. for social and unemployment insur
ance. Through these daily struggles Lenin showed
the workers how to prepare themselves for their
final emancipation.
Lenin's party is the Communist Party. The
Communist Party, under the banner of Marxsm-
Lenlnlsm, shows the way to Soviet America, an
America, of, by and for the working classl

Leninis ShoOs the Way End Capitalist Rule of Wall Street

TODAY We commemorate the memory of Vladimir
Ilyitch Lenin.
Lenin's name is known, and more beloved by mil
lions of workers, farmers and colonial peoples than
the name of any other man in history
Lenin was the revolutionary leader who devel-
oped the teachings of the founders of Socialist prn-
cipes, Karl Marx and Frederick EngeIs.
Lenin showed the workers how to use thzse teach
ings and the best experience of the workers of the
whole world, under the conditions of today to free
themselves from the slavery of rule by a few rich
capitalists.
Basing himself on the teachings of Marx and
Engels, Lenin showed that miserable insecurity
hauns the life of all workers under the present or
der in which the rich rule.
He showed how the system of capitalism, the
system of private property and private profit breeds
poverty for the toers, the majority of the people,

To achieve this, Lenin emphasized the workers
must set up new form of government, Soviet
government; that is the dictatorship of the proe-
tariat ruling through workers councils (Soviets),
elected by the workers in the factories mines, mills,
railroads, offices and on the farms
This would mean the greatest democracy for all
who work. 1t would mean, at the same time the
suppression of all who now exploit, oppress and
rob the workers.
1t was with these ideas that Lenin guided the
Russian workers and farmers to revolutionary vic
tory in 1917, over czarism and capitalist misery.
After Lenins death it was his greatest pupil,
Joseph Stain, who became the great organizer and
architect of the building of the new order Socialism
The American billionaires, the bankers indus
triass, rich landlords, mortgage holders and their
chief mouthpiece at the moment, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, all fear the growing influence of Leninisn
upon the American toilers.

WER INTO THEIR OWN PROFIT

with luxury and ease for handful of billionaires
Lenin showed how capitalism gives rise to mass
poverty at a time when "too much" goods have
been produced. He exposed how the present order
of things leads to the massing of huge wealth in
the hands of a parasite few, while those who have
produced this wealth are condemned to a life of
unemployment, insecurity lower living standards,
and general misery.
Above all, Lenin showed how the working class
can end this state of capitalist slavery. He showed
how the workers could destroy the rule of the rich
and replace it by the rule of the workers, with the
aid of all toilers.
To free themselves, and to build social order in
which there will be no poverty, Lenin taught the
workers that they must smash the powerful grip
of the capitalists. The workers must end the capt.
taist dictatorship, whether hidden by the mask of
democracy" or the open form of fascist dicta-
torship.

Strengthen the MIC Strike!

QRAVO - National Biscuit Company
I'D workers!
New York and Philadelphia plants
closed; Newark, Atlanta and York, Pa,
plants partly closed. This is a splendid
start towards organizing the factories
solidly.
But more must be done There must
be mass picketing men, women, children.
The strike committee must be broad
ened, with at least two workers from every
department.
The rank and file must be brought into
the leadership of the strike to guarantee
It's success.

Party Life
Agitation, Propaganda,
Patience, Persistence
In Recruitment

Q
MANY of our comrades do
III not yet realize the i'm
portance of recruiting new
membes for our Party in
their shop, factory, or place
of work. We must daily carry
on agitation and propaganda.
In most cases we approach a
worker once or twice and If he
does not give the proper response,
we give the matter up as hopeless
and let it go at that. But this is
wrong, comrades. We cannot expect
a worker to see everything clearly
by speaking to him q few times. We
must realize that the worker has
been drugged with capitalist illu-
sions for a number Of years and we
must be patient but persistent.
We want to cite an example Of
how comrade in our Section re-
cruited a worker for the Y.C.L. and
through him gained many others
for our movement. This comrade is
working in an automobile repair
shop where three workers are en-
ployed, one of them being young
American-Italian worker. The COM
rade began to concentrate on this
young worker who was of a very
raw element, and knew nothing
about the revolutionary movement
and its leader, the Communist
Party, but in him burned the fire
Of hatred against the hidden enemy
who placed the heavy burden of
economic worries on young should
ers and deprived the youth of all it's
pleasures. Very patiently and simply
our comrade explained to him the
class division and through concrete
daily examples, proved to him that
the Communist Party was the only
party that fights in the interest of
the working class.
The conrade not only carried on
his agitation in the shop but in
vited the worker to his home where
they were able to talk more freely.
Soon the young worker brought
two other friends along and they
would ask questions and discuss
things. After six months, the three
young workers joined the Y.CL.
These three workers had a lot of
influence over other young Ameri-
can-Italian workers and they start
ed to bring them to our headquar-
tiers. Their friends, in turn, brought
their friends until now we have
from rs to 100 young workers COM
ing up to our headquarters every
day. Of course, this involved certain
problems for our Section how to
handle this mass of youth as they
are all of very raw element and
quite difficult to handle. But these
young workers are precisely the ma
terial needed by our movement and
unless we win them over for our
side, they would have been caught
in the net of the black reactionary
forces.
So you can see, comrades, how
much we can gain for our move
ment through recruiting one worker.

4NSN IOIk, IN. T.
Comrade Editor:
Although it is a simple matter to
criticize others, we still find 1t ur-
gent to send you the following sug-
geStions to achieve mass circula-
ton.
The Daily News has something
that commands the attention of
one million readers every day. We
know that stuff is pure dope"
However, it is administered in such
a subtle manner, in such simple
language, as to captivate them.
For example, every capitalist
paper was featuring the wedding
of the English prince. The masses
gobbled it up but not word in our
Daily Worker. 1t was left to the
British Daily Worker to take that
news item and expose it and they
sure did good job of it.
We must watch the usual run of
murders, scandals, ETC., which fill
the capitalist press and see if we
can't class-angle it for front page
featuring.
The worker in the street who
picks up a Daily Worker is highly
confused at the headlines and cap
tons. The Daily Worker is a Won
derful paper for the class-con-
scious worker, but it is a confusing
maze for the man in the street,
especially victims of the "red
scare"
Put Dels Cutters of New York;
on the front page. The man in the
street likes a. picture or cartoon.
He follows Mickey Mouse's adven-
lures ayidly.
Also sports, and humor column.

Du POnt Makes Gift
To Senators
BY Burck

bOSCOn, MASS.
Comrade Editor:
When Irenee du Pont, president
of the biggest munitions company
in the United States, wanted to
hand out little Christmas gift to
the Senators on the Investigations
Committee, what did he give them?
Well, don't know what he gave
them on the side, that they may
have found more valuable, but he
did give them each a copy of Ca
poot," by Carveth Wells, this book
was really du Points answer to the
munitions makers, not what he
made public to the papers about
being a good boy in the next war
and not making too much profit out
of the deaths of American workers
sent to the front.
"Capoot' is one of the most
vicious books about the Soviet
Union ever written. Every anti
Soviet writer manages to get in
somewhere this gag, which each
writer claims to have experienced
himself. He is supposed to have
talked to somebody in a border
country about Russia, and that
somebody is supposed to have said,
"Russia-capoot" (capoot meaning
worthless).
BY its very title you can tell what
the authors intention is. His in
tention is to discredit the Soviet
Union to the workers in the cap
italist countries, and du Points in
tention, in circulating the book, is
equally clear, to incite and justify
imperialist war upon the Soviet
Union.

The Dictatorship of the Proletariat

GFHE dictatorship of the proletariat is
special form of class alliance between
the proletariat, the vanguard of the toll
ers, and the numerous non-proletarian
strata of toilers (petty -bourgeoisie, the
small masters, the peasantry, the intelli-
gentsia etc. or the majority of these;
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1935-01-19

it is an alliance against capital, an alliance
aiming at the complete overthrow of capt.
tai, at the complete suppression of the re-
sistance of the bourgeoisie and of any at
tempt on their part at restoration, an
alliance aiming at the final establishment
and consolidation of socialism"

CHEMICALS WILL ELIMINATE WET
 HORSE TRACKS
Bay Meadows to s h o W Sport World Something
 New Saturday

San Francisco, November IA = (UP) - The horse racing world sat up and took notice today when pro- moterS of the Bay Meadows race track on the San Francisco Penin- sula announced they had a formula assuring a permanently dry track, regardless of rain or snow.
 The discovery, if it proves prac- ticable, will revolutionize racing form and performances, especially on the winter tracks.
 A new Chemical treatment is said to have transformed the Bay Mead ows track to one which will shed rain like a duck shakes off water. The formula will receive its test at the four weeks Bay Meadows meet which begins November 16. Last year frequent rains marred the racing and caused many form up- sets.
 J. Wilkes Jones, chief agricultur- ist of the Portland Cement Com ptny, supervised the treatment.
 It rained last week and Jones and Bay Meadows officials, exam ming the result of eight weeks work, reported that the track was lightning fast" The soil did not cake up or become soft as horses ran over it in preparation for the winter meeting.
 We put on total of three inches of chemicals in the eight weeks" !" Jones said. With a light sprinkling this week we will be ready to shogT the public something entirely new in race tracks"

CROSBY DANBURY PLAY TOMORROW
Visitors Will Provide Real Test-Wilby vs Conl-
 mercial Saturday

Danbury highs football team, owner of @ score-ess tie with West Haven, undefeated and unscored upon outfit, will provide the op- positoin for Crosby's Blue and White grid combination co-morrcw after noon at Hamilton park. In an ef- fort to find a more effective com- bination, coacn Bill Schofield will probably start several new players and shift others around. Cohen and F. Borzalauskas will start on the ends of the line with Bradley going in at halfback and Murphy and Johnson also in the backf1eld. Pachulski may get chance to play at tackle where he has show nprom- ise in practice.
 Saturday afternoon, Wilby and Commercial of New Haven tangle at Hamilton park in what should turn out to be close, hard-fought game liable to be decided by a touchdown or a point. The Wilby line has become stronger each game while the backfield of Devino, Pomponio and the two Noonan boys Don and Dave, has worked together smoothly all season in a manner that will make the combination a real threat to Crosby on Thanks giving morning.

Contractors vs. Schedulers.

The battle for Cellar Champion ship" was decided this week be- tween these two teams but Tom Marshall'S Schedulers came through in the last two boxes of the second game to win the game and total pinfall. Perhaps if Bob Heseltine had been there it might have been 8 different story although the sub used bowled over his average. Tom Marshall says that they should have won all points but Fred Wooster wanted to give the Contractors a chance and threw three balls in the gutter. Look out, Fred or Tom might look over the substitute list. It looks as if the Schedulers are beginning to warm up again because George Hughes came through to win the last game. Keep it up Sched- ulers and maybe the Specialties will start collapsing. John Van Raap- horst, the sub for Bob Heseltine, was high scorer for the Contractors and Capt. Tom Marshall led the victors with 309.

 We wonder why Bob Size1ove bowls one game in the 70s or sos every weekl
 The boys are starting to exclaim that they shouldn't be on the Scrub team" and we're glad to see that spirit because there's nothing that would Suit yours truly than having no scrub team for a week. With apologies to no one every one who has been on has a score to back it up. Keep up the good bowling.
 Fred Wooster threw three balls in the gutter and thus the reason that he is on the scrub team this week.
 If anybody knows of any new noisemakers kindly leave them with Marvin Sterry each Monday after noon. (We think he is running out of ideas).
 The Time Studiers are asking for more information about any new alibis anyone has to offer which may help their team along.
 Jim Phelan is still leading his son, Art, in the standing by one point and we think that this will be decided when their two respec- tive teams meet this round.
 After looking over the individual averages we notice that the boys are boosting their averages and we think that there are some good promising bowlers in this crowd. Time will tell.

 New York, Nov. 14-(UP)-Not all of the nations great football play- CTS are turned out by Minnesota, Princeton, Yale, Notre Dame, stan- ford, Nebraska, Alabama, Michigan and schools of like calibre.
 Players have to perform on major teams to get national recognition and land on all-America teams. The small schools have their quota but they seldom get in the headlines. This story is dedicated to the un- knowns scattered from coast to coast.
 Layden Likes Him
 An outstanding illustration of great player buried on small team is Doug Locke, fullbeck on the St. Mary's eleven of San Anto- nio, Tex. Elmer Layden, Notre Dame coach, saw Locke in action action against Catholic U. at Wash ington, D. C., the night before the Notre Dame-Navy game and was enthusiastic about his broken-fle1d running, passing and pass-receiv- ing.
 "I'd like to have him on my team" said Layden. That's praise coming from a coach who has such backs as Bin Shakespeare, Andy Pilney, Mike Layden, Fred Carideo and Steve Miller.
 George Mulligan, Catholic U.
 end, is considered the equal of
 any wingman in the country
 by competent critics who've
 seen him in action. He's .
 driving type, 3 great pass re-
 ceiver, . fire blocker and .
 good place-kicker. Last Satur-
 day West Virginia Wesleyan as-
 signed two men to stay on top
 of him.
 Monk Moscrip, Stanford's great end, is recognized as one of the best place kickers in the country, having given the Indians victories over Santa Clara, Washington and Southern California by his field goals. But Dick Weisgerber, Pow erhouse fullback of Willamette urli- versity, Salem, Ore, is rated as bet ter than Moscrip in the far north- west. He kicks without follow through" but has booted 20 goals out of 36 tries.
 Pair Of Stars
 Art Art Lewis, Ohio university tackle, was rated the best lineman on the field when his team upset Illinois, 60. Max Fisk, De Paul halfback, made plenty of ground against Northwestern before his team lost 14-0 to the subsequent conqueror of Notre Dame. Some critics say he'd be an all-American candidate on . major team.

Hunted FreSS Stau COrreSpOnueHtJ
 Los Angeles, Nov. 14.-(UP)-The twinkling feet and mighty passing arm of Bobby Wilson, welterweight halfback of Southern Methodist, have placed his team in position to demand Roose Bowl recognition, it appeared today.
 wilson, who performed last Mon- day before 50,000 supporters of western style football, still has the town talking. The man in the street even went so far as to say that Southern Methodist proved without argument that the ponder ous Pacific coast teams must open up or continue to take beatings from intersectional opponents.
 Speed and Deception
 Robert showed the multitude that eleven big, slow men cannot stop one little fellow. No one can see when he satrts packing the ball, or tossing it forward or laterally to team mates. The 21 to 0 SMU de- feat of UCLA appeared to be the convincer as far as the folk in this section are concerned. The home folk will admit that very excellent football is being played east of the Mississippi and points south.
 The eastern representative IS m- vited by the western school, which appears to be unbeaten University of California, with Stanford yet to hurdle. ,, s
 Eastern contenders still include Syracuse, North Carolina, Prince ton, Minnesota and Dartmouth. The latter three, according to precedent probably would decline bids. Mar ouette is strong in the midwest; Southern Methodist and undefeated Texas Christian will face each other in Texas.
