\ CZECH FASCISTS 0. K. | SOCIALISTS MANIFESTO — FOR WAR ON SOVIETS Say They Agree With Every Word In Second International Manifesto Praise Betrayals of Social-Fascists and Their Counter-Revolutionary Acts + PRAGUE, Czecho-Slovakia (1.P.S.)—“Lidove Listy,” the central | organ of the Czech fascist clericalists approves enthusiastically of the “Manifesto to the Russian Workers!” issued by the Second International, and writes, inter alia, the following: “This manifesto is characteristic for the path taken by the Sec- ond International, the International of Ministers, from the revolutionary heayen-storming Marxism of pre-war days up to the present. The Manifesto does not contain a word with which non-socialists cannot agree. It is in remarkable harmony with the protest made by Pope Pius XI on the 2nd February last. The manifesto of the Second Inter- national which was issued on the 13th of May, represents an integral part of the plebiscite of the cultural world against the bolshevist regime which is seeking by terror to institute the utopia of Karl Marx | and of pre-war revolutionary socialism. To be brief, it would seem to | us that at long last there are certain common fundamentals in exist- | ency for a human moral consciousness, for the basis of European eul- | ture. ‘The Second International and the Black International arm in arm | against the first Republic of Workers and Peasants! | “Socialists” Vote Down Housing Proposals | BERLIN (LP.S.).—In the budget | the building of new homes, and that, | committee of the Reichstag the Com- | further, the tenants of the newly munists put forward a motion vot- | built houses should also enjoy the ing 850,000,000 marks to finance a | Protective provisions of the tenants : ts | protection law, which now only ap- scheme to relieve the frightful hous- | plies to old houses.

French Bosses Heighten Indo-China Terror PARIS (I.P.S.).—The white ter- ror in Indo-China is still proceeding steadily. Numerous arrests have been made during the last few days. | Amongst the arrested is Dao Tang |Nghiep, a prominent leader of the jnationa] revolutionary association in | Indo-China, who is accused of mur- |der and incitement to murder, He lis also charged with having thrown | bombs in Hanoi on February 10, “Order” has been restored in the “rebel villages in Cat-Ngam,” which |hq'sted red flags on May 1.

Italian Peasants Revolt Against Fascists PARIS (LP.S.).—L’Humanite reports that the peasants of Mar- tina Franca, in southern Italy, rose in revolt, armed with scythes q id pitchforks, against the local scists, They overwhelmed the cdrabinieri, who barricaded them- | selves in their quarters. The lo- cal headquarters of the fascists, the tax office and similar hated buildings were burned to the ground. In the evening large forces of armed marines and sol- diers arrived. Heavy rifle fire was heard. Seventy persons were killed and hundreds wounded. The fascist authorities admit the re- | volt, but seek to minimize its im- | portance. Paytriotic Sons Worried by Communists of violent revolutionists against legally constituted authority and a person who never told a lie—oh, no —George Washington was also a big land stealer and a Negro slave- holder, this suggestion ought to stir the hearts of all true paytriots. Communists terrible things, you see, because they organize the work- ers against wage-cuts, unemploy- ment, speed-up, boss profit wars and against the entire capitalist David L.
