All their work, concealed in the secret chambers of the general s and the ministries has suddenly come to light. The charge sheet of the public prosecutor in the case of the “Industrial Pariy” throws a searching light on | the dispicable campsign of the inspirers of a new world war. At a time when the diplomats and the min 's in numberless conferences were talking of their love of peace, behind the scenes they were makinz prep: ns for a bandit tack on the USSR. “The chief neg for the o~janization of intervention w on in F: viand-and in Ens}: Churchill. confession of Ri Poincare Riab sen give instr been caught red | | | | | at ).

This was because, although “the fundamental leader of the intervention musi be Frane>.” neve less its “direct fulfilment was planyed with the help of the military forces of Poland and “ur nia, with the participation of the Baltic States. ‘The plan was thought out*to its finest details: how to force the U.S.S.R. to declare war, at provocation to undertake to bring about military actions. “The intervention was to have commenced hy | the advance of Rumania. Under a pretext, for instance, of a border incidetit.’ followed by a formal declaration of wer by Poland and an at- tack by the border states” ‘(confession of Ram- zin). There was. howéver, another alternative plan: it was, pointed out that Poland. by openly seizing Lithuania, woul exuse an intéfhational conflict. into which the U-8.8.R. would have to be drawn. ‘The interventionists were ready to use ‘any means to drag the Soviét Union into war. For this purpose they carried on a long series of provocations. attacks on the consulate in China, the murder of Voikov in Warsaw. These were‘ all links in the same infamous plan. ‘The main task of the interventionists was to make the U.SS.R. scem to be the attacking party. ‘Then of course, the League of Nations and the Kellogg Pact would have come on the scene, and it would have been possible to fool the middle class population of Europe and the backward sections of the workers, it would have been easier to cazry on the base slanders which the social- fascists weve carrying on against the USSR. Now, in view of these exposures, it must be clear to evoryone how tremendously important wes the firm and consistent policy of peace car- ried on by tie U.S.S.R.. and how it foiled the plans of the enemies of the proletariat The interventionists did not dream of hiding their aims. “Both France and Poland were reckoning on the possibility of the future ex- ploitation of the internal riches of Russia, France {m the form of various concessions and Poland counting on disposing of its’ goods in Russia” (confessicn of Fedotov). The wreckers of the “Indystrial Party” and their foreign guides were following the noble footsteps of their white guard predecessors. The had already begun to sell their “boloved fatherland” wholesale and retail. “Charnovsky informed me of an extremely im- portant secret note from Ramzin that when he was in Paris and: during the negotiations with the French general staff and the Torgprom, he had to agree in the name of the SIO (the al- liance of engineering organizations) to those concessions to the interventionists which had béen previously promised by the Torgprom on behalf of Russia. France claims the payment of debts, both the czar’s debts.and the war debts, \n full, and extensive concessions for working the mineral riches of Russia.. England claims the oil fields of the Caucasus, Poland demands Kiev and part of Western Ukeaine’, (confession of Fedotov). This seems quite clear. It may be added to this that the French usurers not only reserve for themselves the full payment of czarist and war debts but they assured themselves of an income for their support. Gonts “The commission (of General Janain) decided that France will carry on the provision of mili- tary supplies and armaments for the interven- tionist armies” (confession of Kalinikov). This decision which satisfied the appetite of French heavy industry, ‘‘disappointed” England. “After the decision of,Janain’s commission,” Kalinikov informs us, “England became some- what less interested in intervention, because its chief economic interest had fallen through—to give its industry the chance to make a good thing out of the supply of armaments for the interventionist armies.” Now everything has come to the surface, all the vileness and the filth of the capitalist mur- derers, who were already counting over their profits from the bloody business they had planned. “The negotiations for the organization of in- tervention were made difficult by the appetites of the verious participators,” we reed trom Ram- zin’s confession. The contradictory interests of ae powers are 80 easily reconciled. date for intervent to be put off again and again. “In 1923 it became known that the complica- tions in the political situation abroad, chiefly owing to the double dealing policy of Germany, which was bargaining with both sides for its eral Ja’ | ma: rreent between the e% GUESS ania with regard to Poland, made it unsuitable at that time to make an open attack on the Soviet cn” (confession of Larichov).

World’s Workers Will Decitle Fate of intervention Plans HE Supreme Soviet Court, in the name of 150 million toilers of the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics will in the next few days pass judg- ment on the leaders of the international sabotage and espionage organization. The me behind these sabotagers: Poincare, Briand. Deterdine, Urquhardt, General Janain and other French, English and Polish General Staff officers worked at a safe distance where they cannot be reached by the sword of the revolutionary law of the proletarian State. The Court of the Soviet Union can in the best case pronounce sentence on only a part of those responsible for the sabotage. It can only decide the fate of the sabotagers and spies of the im- perialists who prepared counter-revolutionary intervention war against the Soviet Union within the frontiers of the workers State. The fate of the intervention plans does not depend upon the Soviet Court. It does not even depend upon the working masses in the Soviet Union who stand behind it, and who have, for years, been carrying on their peaceful policy with the greatest perseverance and in spite of all the provocations of the imperialists. in spite of all sabotagérs and spies, in spite of Poincare, Briand, Deterding and Uucuhard are success- fully building up socialism. The fate of Poincare’s intervention plans will be decided outside of the frontiers of the Soviet Union, in the capitalist countris. Hence the conspiracy of silence maintained by the openly bourgeois press of interventional im- perialism regarding the exposure of the plans for counter-revolutionary intervention against. the Soviet Union with a simultaneously extremely enhanced campaign of incitement against the workers’ state. Hence also the pacifist smoke screen of the social democratic press in the service of international imperialism by which it is intended to cover up the exposed preparation of intervention by Poincare, Briand, Deterding, as well as the General Staffs of France, England and Poland. Every means including silence, deliberate lies and pacifist smoke screens are being employed in order to prevent the working masses of the capitalist and colonial countries from realizing what the exposure of the military intervention plans as well as all the events in connection with the international policy of imperialism in the last two years have proved: namely that here it is not a case of danger of war in general but of concrete plans of war of intervention against the Soviet Union and the concrete measures in preparation for this war, The intervention plans have not been aban- doned as a result of the exposure but only post- poned. The carrying out of the counter-revolu- tionary intervention war was planned for the year 1931, so that the enforced postponement of the war only means that preparations for mili- tary operations against the Soviet Union in the year 1931 are being continued. ‘ Messrs. Poincare, Briand, Deterding and Ur- quhardt may flatly and impudently deny every- thing like a horse thief caught in the act, but the facts of the foreign policy of the French government, ‘© events in Poland, Rumania and Tiniand, the open fascisation of these states, King Carol's ascension to the throve, the o-- pesed military p'ans of the Pinnish General Steff and the increased armaments in pil the states bordering the Soviet Union prove beyond all doubt that military, political and military- technical preparations at a most accelerated pace were carried on to realize the intervention plans in the year 1931. “The central organ of the French eacialdem. sful fulfilment of the Five-Year Plan, upset all their plans. to put pressure on the wreckers of been | HELP! — HELP!

This fact is by no means aliercd by the cir- cumstances. that M. Leon Blum. afier the cx- posure of the intervention plans had nothing better to do than to write a series of articles in the “Populaire” containing no mention of the intervention plans and maintaining complete silence on Poincare’s role, but culogizing the pacifism of Mr. Briand who has j been ex- posed as the leader of intervention. \ The purpose of M.

The “little” matter of debts due from. districts for peers sent out having increased from $10,- @ to $20,900 in the course of six months did to trouble a number of these “vandals,” who protest 2t being called “pirates.” An instance was recently called to our atten- hich may ex 1 of our flock to appeals from us. a certain city, a comrade passing through en route to New York, reportet! that she happened in wh kop n the local Party officials were making a -e of bills from the Daily Worker, When what the big idea was for such, the reply giv “On, the Daily gets money from Russia and nds us bills as a matter of form. We use from sales ourselves as we need it.” It scems that this, or some similar notion, is the net result of comrades who listen to J. Ham- ilton Fish, Mattie Woll and Norman homes; instead of to the Daily Worker. Recently we wer? astonished to hear over the radio some old pairiotic hen assuring the world that this building wherein, much to our dis+ comfort, we are located, “cost $3,000,000, which ot course came from Russia.” It was described | as palatial and all the rest tht it is not. 4s a matter of ‘fact the elevator men, who menage by some heroic means to keep one eler vator running while the other one is on the are complaining that they got no wages veck, and the obvious fact that it seems diffcutt to accomplish the “five year plan” in less then fourteen, shows, without. any ..intimate knowledge of accounts, that the building man- agement has no open account with the Soviet treasury. Likewise, the Daily Worker, to the support of | which the editorial and business staff has beet contributing a large part of their wages from time immemorial. cannot be convinced that the Soviet is “dumping” any cargoes’ of “Russian gold” in this neck of the woods. This is not to say that. the ahaa, in the Soviet Union have no right to contribute to any movement they are in sympathy with in capital. ist countries. They have that right, but just as unquestionably, they have the right to conserve | every cent to build a socialist industry,.and stil} {urther a right to expect the American workers to support their own movement. ? So it gives us a pain in the neck to encounter evidence that some of our “vandals’ (we'll not insist on the word “pirates” if comrades simply cannot lay aside their subjectivity) refuse to pay Daily Worker bills for “reasons” which they. take right out of the mouth of J. Hamilton Fish, Jr. At the time we were commenting on thesé “vandals,” we stated that if substantial sums on their debts were not paid, that one of these days all and sundry workers would be asked to cons tribute a day’s pay or sométhing like that, to save the Daily from suspension. § That day is here.
