| i | — + "THE DAILY WORKER, ¥ YORK, WEDNESDAY, JU COMMUNISTS PROPAGANDIZE IDEA OF “SOVIETS!” IN CHINESE REVOLUTION Cable to The . WORKER.) MOSCOW, U.S. S. BR, Pravda, the central organ of the Communist Party of the Sov iet | Union, declares today that the crisis in the Kuomintang in China puts the (Special DAILY July 26— question of the organization of So-| in the! development of the Chinese Revolu- | viets on the order of the day tion. At the same time it declares that the role of the Chinese bourgeoisie in the -revolutionary movement is a thing of the past. Pravda emphasizes that the change in the various phases of the develop- ment of the Chinese Revolution and in the Kuomintang imperatively de- mands new slogans and new tactical departures. It calls for an ability, pursuing the true Leninist path, to find the actual link that can be taken hold of at a| given moment in order to draw all) revolutionary forces into a common| chain of struggle. The the Chinese Communist Party at the present moment are enumerated as} follows: 1. The paramount task of the Chi- nese Communist Party at the pres- ent moment is to energetically resist | the reactionaries within the Kuomin- | tang. various efforts demanded of | The Kuomintang organizations in which Communists wield the dom- inant influence must be raised against the Central Committee. Pravda points out that the Com- | munists should immediately start a} propaganda for the idea of the So-/ viets, so that if the struggle to win | the Kuomintang fails, to eall the masses to organize Soviets as a con- dition of the further development of the revolution; opposing the Soviets, as organs of the toilers, to the organ- izations of the bourgeoisi It is point out that while it is cor- rect today to issue the slogan for the organization of Soviets, it was} not correct. to issue this slogan be-| fore, when the révolution was pass- ing thru a different stage of its de velopment. For a long time the supporters of | the idea of the immediate organiza- tion of Soviets wished, says Pravda, thru ,merely proclaiming the new slogan to substitute the struggle for, | winning the masses within the} | Kuomintang, for the demand that the Gommunists be immediately called upon to leave the Kuomintang. © | The supporters of this idea (Trot-) zky-Zinoviev-Radek) were trying to force the masses to jump over such phases of the development of the) revolution as they had not yet lived thru. | ALL CHINA FEDERATION OF LABOR CALLS UPON JAPANESE LABOR BODY TO CHECK IMPERIALISM The All-China Labor Federation protests, in the name of 2,500,000 or- ganized Chinese workers, against the sending of troops by the Japanese imperialists to Shangtung.

They do not know that Japanese residents in China have never received any harm| whatever. | The said Federation hopes that} Nihon Rodokumiai Hyogikai leads the Japanese class-workers in a joint strike for the withdrawal of the Japanese troops from Shangtung. | “Eradicate totally the Japanese im- perialists and secure for both the} Japanese and the Chinese proletariat | a true iiberation.

We must pursue a digni- | fied, careful icy when we engage in these criticisims because there is | aways a danger that we may injure the cause we are trying to help.” That was the sum total of Green’s | comment on the outrages committed in Haiti! Almost immediately following, came the big dispute over the gen- | eral question of American imperial- }ism and the concrete proposals sub- mitted in resolution number 34, pre-| | sented by the Venezuelan, Nicaraguan | and Dominican delegations. The Nicaraguan delegation defended the resolution only half-heartedly, or not | at all, while the Dominican delegates | | declared that they had endorsed the | resolution originally because they did |not understand it and demanded that | their signatures be withdrawn from | it. | “You cannot fool us as to the ac- | tual nature of the Monroe Doctrine,” | Martinez declared hotly. You may | bring all kinds of evidence to aid you | but we in Latin-America have our op- | position to the Monroe Doctrine | tooted in the experience of years. | Latin-American delegates here ma: | be silent, but they know what I jis true. President Green referred in | his opening address to self-detrmina- tion of nations. Well if self-deter- mination means anything it mez that Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip- pines too must be declared indepen - not dent. American imperialism must get out of Latin-America. American troops should be withdrawn im- mediately from all foreign territory |—including China, where the United States is slaughtering Chinese in ecol- | lusion with British imperialism.” | The shame of it was that Green} | was able to say, as a prelude to his | passionate defense of the Monroe | Doctrine at the end of the discussion: | “It gratifies the A.
