The reason they give is that the “re- cent insurrection in Indo-China was inspired by the Bolsheviki,” adding that—“All Bolsheyist organizations aim to corrupt our troops, promote rebellion among our colonials, to disorganize our marine and, in short, to provoke our economic ruin.” In order to hide the painful point of “our” economic ruin, however, the imperialists assume a humanitarian disguise and say that “it would be futile to appropriate billions for development of our colonies, if this expansion is to he compromised by insurrection.” All the “de- velopment” the French carry our in Indo-China is meant to bring back big profits. To get them the Indo-Chinese are mercilessly exploited, and it is this which caused the insurrection, rather than any “inspira- tion by Bolsheviki.” Wail Street Bosses to Give Whalen Blowout c Whalen’s real bosses | workers throughout the United including J.

While officially all five rob- ber powers are still in the London picture, the party is rapidly break- ing up. Neither Italy nor France will sign any kind of paper that in- terferes with their shipbuilding race. And the paper that England, America and Japan are about to solemnly swear to will only sharpen the competition between their ma- terial naval programs. At the same time, tagonisms between the various im- perialist powers have clearly sharp- ened the secret efforts to bring about an effective anti-Soviet front are still going strong. Back home, meanwhile, the Amer- ican imperialists are investing heavy sums to “place this country in a position to compete with foreign na- tions in the air.” A senate com- mittee intended to eliminate ob- stacles to the construction of an un- | equalled naval air force heard the testimony of Lieutenant Alford Wil- liams, speed specialist of the navy, in which the lieutenant admitted | that for five years he had conducted important experiments for this pur- pose; “financed by wealthy New York aviation enthusiasts.” PROTEST TERROR MASS MEETING At 8 Tonite at Central Opera House Eight o’clock tonight at Central | Opera House, 67th St. and Third Ave., a mass demonstration will be held to protest the arrests of the delegates elected by 110,000 workers on March 6, International Unem- | ployment Day. Among the speakers will be Robert Minor, I. Amter Sadie van Veen, Richard B. Moore, R. Shohan and others. P The trial of the unemployed dele- gation, which opens Friday morr- | jing, only two days from Nov. 1 | lends great importance to this dem onstration.
