Of course, he can be “in- duced” next week to reconsider his resignation and thus “save face” for his American masters without ma- terial loss. Germany, with the best will to comply with American demands for an imperialist united front against the Soviet Union, is reported em- barrassed by its role as mediary'in diplomatic correspondence going on between China and the Soviet. America, scheming out a way to | send the Soviet Umion a war threat without recognizing the Soviet Gov- ernment, dodged the issue by, first- ly, declining to call the note a “note,” but only a “statement,” and even sending it without signing it! Stimson maintains a clam-like si- lence on Japanese rejection of his proposal, while busily bringing all pressure possible to bear on Japan tion, in which America hopes to push Japan out of its dominating position in Manchuria. If it can gain Japanese consent to interven- tion—and possibly even if Japan re- fuses—America, it is declared quite openly here, will turn the London “naval conference” into a council _ of war on the Soviet Union. wr get rid of this starvation 949 BROADWAY, Room 512 is sending relief to the Leakeville strikers. is taking care of blacklisted Gastonia workers, is making a survey of pellagra in the South and plans to establish a pellagra clinic to help the southern workers to is helping to organize the unorganized. helps us carry through these tasks. RUSH FUNDS TO Workers International Relief by the the imperialist executive in his message to congress. He told the capitalist parliament-| ary body about his organization of intends to depend more on his open fascist grouping of capitalists, rich farmers and labor fakers in dealing with the nation-wide wage-cuts and inereased speed-ups, than upon con-| gress. Hooyer particularly urges further imperialist agression in Latin Amer- ica, and a sharper struggle for the! control of the world markets, He presses the questior. of build-| ing of a merchant marine to com- pete for the world shipping trade. The Kellogg pact is becoming the instrument of American imperialist hegemony as against the League of Nations controlled by British im- perialism, The message seys Washington is helping to maintain the docile, re- actionary government of Rubio Ortiz in Mexico. Hoover points with pleasure to Wall Street’s domination in Chile, Peru, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicara- gua and Haiti. “It is my desire,” | says the capitalist president, “to es- tablish more firmly our understand- ing and relationships with Latin- | American countries. . . .” Further suppression of the Hai- | tian masses is requested by the | president’s message. He asks for the appointment of a commission to shackle Haiti more firmly to Wall Street. The one instance in which the | Soviet Union is mentioned in the | message is when Hoover says: “The only indebtedness of foreign gov- ernments to the United States now unsettled is that of Russia and Ar- menia.” The question of recogni- tion iS hushed up amid the war preparations against the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics. Hoover asks for control of the | tariff in the interest of the big bankers and _ industrialists. He recommends a tax reduction for the leading imperialists, which together with the proposed smashing wage- cuts planned against the workers, is intended to aid the capitalists in the present depression. Trustification of the railroads is one of the measure that Hoover disease.
