Cents @ Price 3 eee At the ‘Disarmament’ Confer-'/our Workers ||MPERIAL VALLEY | ence They Prepare for War The American workers must understand that the differences be- tween French and Italian imperialism, widely featured in the capitalist press, do not replace the differences between British and American imperialism. The Franco-Italian struggle around the Mediterrranian question is, in itself, a reflection of the very antagonisms existing today between the United States and England. No one, therefore, should permit him- self to believe that the sharp differences between American imperialism and British imperialism over the question of freedom of the seas, the redivision of the world, is being superceded by the differences of the imperialist powers around the Mediterranian, The break in the Franco-Italian negotiations only further proves the correctness of the Communist analysi$ that: simultaneously with the growth of imperialist united from against the Soviet Union the dif- ferences between the imperialist powers are continuously increasing and becoming sharper. The imperialist French government, before going into the London conference, wants to be assured that in case of war it should have at its disposal the fleets and support of other great naval powers. Through Briand, a co-author of the Kellogg ,so-called “Peace” Pact, France today refuses to accept, as a basis for the London Conference, the Kellogg Pact, which does not provide this guaranty of mutual armed assistance. On the other hand, the imperialist ambitions of fascism prevent Italy from entering into a treaty with France that would recognize the status quo of the present French colonial posses- sions, unless it is granted parity with the French navy. French im- perialism, of course, cannot permit an Italian navy equal to its own. This would actually medn Italian naval superiority over the French fleet in the Mediterranean. The present French navy exceeds the Italian’ by 800,000 tons. In two or three years France will have a navy of 800,000 tons. Italian parity with France would mean either for France to discontinue its naval building program and permit Igaly to build to the level 6f the French fleet, which, due to the present eco- nomic crisis, Italy could not afford; or for France to reduce its navy to the present naval strength of Italy. The basis of the Franco-Italian differences can best be understood if we take into consideration the French colonial empire and the im- perialist policies of Italy. France has large colonial possessions in Nosthern Africa. In these colonies France maintains one-third of its regular army, used for the suppression of the natives, and which in the event of war, will have to be brought back to France. These colo- tial possessions can also supply niillions of natives to serve as cannon fodder in the coming imperialist war. The French colonies are very rich in many important raw materials essential for the war industries. At the same time all shipping to France must go through the Mediter- ranian. In face of an inevitable war, French imperialism can, there- ‘ore, not accept parity with the Italian navy and’ continues to build an even larger fleet that will guarantee the security of its trade routes and uninterrupted communication with its colonial possessions in Africa, the Far East and Fyench Indo-China. The economic crisis in Italy, the adverse balance of its trade, its dependence for the most essential raw materials upon other countries and the growing discontent of the Italian masses, force Italy to insist on more colonies for its own imperialist exploitation. The present Ttalian-African colonies are poor in raw materials and generally have very little economic yalue, To date. these colonies have succeeded in attracting only a small amount of Italian population. However, on the other side of the Mediterranean, within a short distance of Italy, there lies very rich African territory, abundant with valuable raw materials in which Italy is so badly in need of. But these colonies are already taken. They lie iff the iron claws of French imperialism, which is ready to fight with all its might for their retention. Italy, on numerous occasions, expressed its demand for the redivision of the French colonial empire. However, every worker today can see clearly that this redivision cannot be accomplished by peaceful means but only through armed conflict. With the present far superior strength of the French imperialism Italy cannot yet resort to direct war on Are Deported STRIKERS FIRM trom Mexico {more Communist workers were de- | Ly ported yesterday on the steamer Es- |, i pana, which sailed from Vera Cruz.}o L.U.U.L.

It is because of this that Italian fascism insists on having a navy equal to France, in order to be in a position to wage war for the redivision of the colonial tgritory of the imperialist powers, par- + ticularly those of France. At the same time this Mediterranian question is of great impor- tance to England. The Mediterranian is the gateway through which Br go all the trade routes from the British Island to India and the Far y East. It is the seat which guards the entrance of the Suez Canal— ny the main artery of the British empire. It is the place where the two ne most important naval bases, Malta and Gilbraltar, are situated, and, ne consequently, British imperialism is viewing with great alarm the growth of the French navy and air fleet, which, in the event ‘of war, present in themselves a deadly menace to British commerce and trade. “3 In these Franco-Italian imperialist differences there is a definite os reflection of Anglo-American antagonisms. To America a larger rs Ytalian and French navy means that Britian will be compelled to main- st tain a larger fleet in the Mediterranian, and a smaller fleet in the ry ‘Atlantic waters and the Far East. Though American imperialism will fight at the London conference for the abolition of submarines, which is directed more against Japan than France, in its diplomatic policy, however, it urges Great Britain to be more lenient to the demands of rs k- France. On the other hand, Great Britain, seeing the menace | of the in growing French navy, is supporting Italy in its imperialist claims for es nayal parity with France, which means the weakening of the French of navy, and will consequently permit a smaller fleet in the Mediter- th) ranian and a larger one in the Atlantic and the Far East. We, there- fore, see that the antagonisms between American and British imperial- ism have not decreased. On the c@ntrary these antagonisms have increased, and also they find expression in the present Franco- Italian disagreements. The coming London conference is, therefore, not a disarmament con- ference, but an armament conference for the coming imperialist war. ee illi 1 Shows HOOVER ADMITS Baa conditions: Cons WIDE DISCONTENT Fight; Hits Zaritsky Letter Reveals Big Local 43, millinery workers, which |has been conducting splendidly mili- ‘tant strikes, particularly the one has Hi y micas siaiaas si |against the Fairway Hat Shop, yes- Crisis Difficulties terday issued a statement on the un- 7 ‘ ‘bearable conditions in the trade and D COLUMBUS, Ohio, oa le x > That things are not all well with) A . >. the.
