Any sions to the effect that the social-democrats and reac- tionary trade union leaders would not again betray the workers into the hands of the imper dispelled by the action of the Gen Unions in smashing the Anglo-Rus Union Unity. This monstrous crim tory government of fo incite a predatory war against the Soviet Union is more vile, more contemptible than was the crime of the social-democratic leaders of the Second International in August, 1914, when they went over into the camp of the imperialist war lords. In the last world war the social-democrat traitors went over into the camp of the enemy after the war had been declared. Today the General Council is aiding the tory government pre- pare for war. The Anglo-Russian committee for trade union unity was cre- ated specifically for the purpose of bringing closer together the workers of the two nations and eventually striving to achieve amity of action of the world trade unions in order to fight against the threat of new wars. Wien the master class was successfully concealing its malignant features under the mask of pacifism and when it tried to gain advantages over the Soviet Union by “eco- anomie penetration,” when it had not despaired of utili handed diplomacy to achieve the defeat of Russia that it failed in the early days of the revolution to achieve by military interven- tion, it was logical that the labor lieutenants of capitalism should also make alliances with the workers of the Soviet Union. This alliance was weleomed by the leaders of the proletarian revolution who, although aware of the calibre of the people they n Committee for Trade just at this time, when the were dealing with, recognized the fact that through an alliance| with the leaders, they could gain a hearing before the British workers who were then still under the influence of the right-wing- ers and the so-called “left” of the General Council. The sabotaging of the Anglo-Russian committee is the logical! climax of the policy of treachery on the part of the General Council that manifested itself against the workers of England during the months of preparation by the government before the general strike af May, 1926, when they refused to prepare for the struggle, that stood out in glaring relief in the actual betrayal of the strike and| that paved the way for the fierce assault against labor in the form of anti-union legislation. Now that the tory government of Britain has broken trade | relations with the Soviet Union and has intensified its drive against the revolution by unprecedented provocation, raids on em- bassies and assassinations, it is only logical that their servile flunkeys on the General Council should follow in their footsteps. Already, in insulting letters to the unions of Russia, members of the General Council have repeated the protests of their masters against the execution of the paid agents of British imperialism plotting wholesale murder of the leaders of the proletarian revo- iution in Russia. Step by step they keep pace with the tory gov- ernment in its attacks against the working class at home and the vanguard of the world revolution in Russia. There is, however, one fact that is to the advantage of the working class. That is that their present acts prove the leaders of the.General Council to be consciously engaged as agents of the master class, to havé openly formed a bloc against the workers of the whole world. This treachery, occurring as it does in the prep- aratory period, will completely expose them before the masses of British workers. During the existence of the Angle-Russian trade union unity committee the workers of Britain learned that their only friends in the ranks of international labor were the Russian workers, not the renegades of the Second International or the Amsterdam In- ternational. The bonds of solidarity established between the work- ers of the two countries cannot be torn asunder by the treachery of the leaders of the General Council and the vanguard of British labor recognizes that its fight must be against both the tory gov- ernment and its labor agents. The Respite for Savco and Vanzetti. Fuller’s 31-day respite for Sacco and Vanzetti, while hailed by certain gullible lib s who, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, have an abiding faith in the ability of capitalist politicians to take an impartial y of labor struggles, is a danger signal that should arouse the most determined resentment on the part of class-conscious workers. Fuller, millionaire automobile magnate, contends that he has had insufficient time to investigate the facts in the case, hence he postponed action for another month. He needs thirty-one more days to pretend io ascertain facts that are known to practically the whole world. Thousands: upon thousands of investigators from practically every walk of life have proclaimed their convic- tion of the innocence of these two workers who for seven long years have stood in the shadow of the electric chair. The frame- up against them has been thoroughly exposed. Not only have they been proved innocent, but one of the men who participated in the crime for which they were convicted has confessed and completely exonerated Sacco and Vanzetti. If Fuller were honest and really desirous of partly compensating these workers for their sufferings at the hands of the conspirators in the service of the labor-hating mill owners he would free them instantly. The fact that he does not do so under the pretext of conducting further investigations is prolonging the fiendish torture these class vie- tims have suffered these seven years. That Sacco and Vanzetti are still alive is due solely to the vigilance and determination of labor throughout the world to stay the hand of the executioner. This liberation will only be achieved hrough the continued efforts of labor. During the next month the nation must again ring with demands for the release of these two workers. f M fr Governor $8.50 six montha | alists in the next world war has been| 1 Council of British Trade} provocation and murder, is trying to! ing under-| | This picture representing imperialist war is taken from “Red Cartoons” published by Daily | Worker Publishing Co.

Sensational | telegrams were continually sent from | China to the effect that Chiang Tso- |lin, Chiang-Kai-Shek and other coun- | ter-revolutionaries were marching on | Wuhan. In fact there was even talk |of a race to Wuhan. Every day one |could read of the flight of Borodin, | the adviser to the Wuhan govern- ment, and some Communist Ministers jin an airship from Wuhan to other cities, Incited By Imperialists. | This campaign of incitement was deliberately initiated by the imperial- ist agents in China. It was believed that in this way it would be possible to defeat the gigantic Chinese revolu- |tion. Today they have to admit, con- trary to their previous reports of the “fall of Wuhan,” that the revolution- | ary troops are threatening Peking. | They likewise hava to admit that | Borodin is still in Wuhan. Pte junction of the revolutionary armies the troops of Kuomin- |chun proceeding along the Lunghai railway line and the troops of Tang Sen Dji proceeding along the Wuhan- | Peking line—-was accomplished at Chengchow. Peking is now threat- ened on three sides.’ From the South side there are approaching the united jforces of the Kuominchun and Tang | Sen Dji along the Wuhan-Peking line from the North side there are ad- vancing the troops of Feng Yu- Hsiang, united with the army of the model governor of Shansi, Lien Chi San, which went over to the Wuhan | government in April last, and from |the West the Shansi troops are push- ing forward along the Taytian-Jint- |chen line. Before very long Chang | Tsung Chang’s army, which has long | been in open conflict with Chang Tso- | lin and which only recently was de- |feated in North Kiangsu near Hsut- chow by Chiang Kai-shek, will with- | draw from there to Tientsin and thus cut off the retreat of Chang Tso-Lir to. Manchuria. Chang Tso-Lin will shortly be compelled to abandon | Peking in order to secure Manchuria. Attitude Of Japan. H that Chang Tso-lin is in such a | critical position? Japan is at present as equally cool towards Chang Tso- lin as it is towards the revolutionary Wuhan troops; for Chang Tso-lin is the friend of its enemy—Great Britain, When Chang Tso-lin advanced this year against the province of Honan, the Japunese incited his follower, the former governor of the province of Chili, Li Djin Lin, to organize a mili- tary revolt against him. After the / \ OW will the Japanese behave now) diseovery of the plans for a putch at | the beginning of April, Chang Tso- | Lin, with a great force of troops | searched just as eagerly on Japanese steamers in Tientsin for L-Djin Lin, }as he had sought for Comrade Li Tai | Chou in the Embassy of the Soyiet | Union in Peking. The Japanese had to employ their own troops to remove the soldiers of Chang Tso-Lin from their ships. The Japanese intend to put in the place of Chang Tso-lin as the ruler of Manchuria, the former chief of staff, Jang Ju Chin, who has remained true to them, ie Jang Ju Chin become the suc- cessor of Chang Tso-Lin? It is highly improbable, for he is a gen- eral without soldiers. What is still worse for him is that he is being fought most bitterly by all tenden- cies in the Chang. Tso-lin clique. As we have already mentioned, the traitor Chiang Kai-shek is also Let’s Fight On! Join The Workers Party!

There is even talk of a race to Pe- king between the troops of the Wu- han government and the mercenaries of Chiang Kai-shek. But there is not the least doubt that in the pres- ent strategical situation Peking will be captured, not by Chiang Kai-shek but by the revolutionary troops. Chiang Kai-Shek, has not even ad- vanced beyond North Kiangsu, and therefore still has to cross the two prdvinces of Shantung and Chili where he will be opposed by Chang Tsung Chang with all his forces. In the meantime the revolutionary troops have encircled Peking on three sides. Rey the Plenary Session of the Kuomintang in March 1927 the Chinese revolution entered a new stage. It is the beginning of the democratic-revolutionary dictatorship of the peasants and workers. Thanks to the rapid advance of the revolutionary troops to North China the Chinese revolution will in this stage receive a fresh and gigantic im- petus; for in the three provinces of Honan, Shantung and Chili, the workers’ and peasants’ organiza- tions, in spite of terrible suppression, are exceedingly strong. CURRENT EVENTS (Continued from Page One) and makes a bee line for home. It is inconceivable that the powers were not aware of each other’s intentions before the conference met, Their spies are active and efficient. The real purpose of the conference as far as the United States is concerned was to serve as a microphone for the propaganda necessary to prepare the public mind at home for a tremend- ous naval building program. * * * pay ARMSTRONG, a 97-year-old beggar died recently, leaving an estate with an estimated valuation of $65,000. Armstrong learned early in life that working for a living was not what it is cracked up to be, so he parked himself at the corner of Fourteenth street and Eighth avenue and held his hat upside down for more than fifty years. Ten relatives and one benefactor are now wrang- ling over the estate. Those who claim that hard work is the open sesame to fortune have a few ‘skep- tical snorts coming to them. . Still we must admit that Mr. Armstrong had the two virtues of patience and Perservance in abundance. Paper Box Organization Meet To- PS night.
