A special conference between | Ramsin, a representative of the Ku- | lak Party, and the Menshevik repre- sentatives Groman, Ginsburg, Sokol- ov, Stern, and Sukhanoy, took place. Ramsin made a report on his trip abroad, reported that intervention was definitely planned in 1930, em- phasizing the necessity of the ut- most increase of wrecking work. As @ common working platform of the bloc were fixed, first, the overthrow of the proletarian dictatorship; sec- ond, the re-establishment of capital- ist relations; thirdly, coordination of the practiéal wrecking work and the preparation for intenvention. Ramsin proceeded to detail the financing of the Menshevik Party by | the Industrial Party. Ramsin’s ex- amination still continues. Pipe nar MOSCOW, March 4.—The evi- dence of the accused Kubin exposed the contents of the documents of the foreign bureau of the Mensheviks, which were kept by him in the Marx- | Engels Institute. The letter of the foreign bureau on intervention said passivity on the question of inter- vention cannot satisfy international social democracy, In view of the military and technical superiority of the capitalist powers and the disin- tegration of the Soviet regime, the latter’s overthrow is inevitable. Res- toration of the landlords and the monarchy was excluded, owing to the growth of the post-war influence of social democracy and the impossibil- ity of getting the workers to support monarchist slogans, The result of intervention must be a bourgeois democratic republic, The social dem- ocrats should propagate and support the same, Menshevism must make contact with other counter-revolu- tionary parties who aim at mass up- rising the moment of intervention to propagandize the peasants and sol- diers in the Red Army, and to dis- organize industry. They concluded that unless social democracy takes an active part intervention will be unable to control events. In two letters of the foreign bu- reau the bloc with Kondratyev and the bourgeois parties generally were outlined. Although Menshevism dis- trusts other parties, the changed conditions dictate a united front. Rubin, in answer to Krylenko’s ques- tions, outlined the relations of Rya- zanov, former head of the Marx-En- gels Institute, to whom he gave docu- ments for safekeeping. Ryazanov ob- tained his release from prison in 1923, curtailed his exile in 1926, giv- ing Rubin work in the Institute, He | A A a PA oe MOSCOW, ‘March 4.—-At the con- tinuation of the evening session yes- terday, Krylenko cross-examined Professor Ramsin on his impressions of the Menshevik organization. He admitted his illusions regarding the Menshevik influence among the workers, which, after a short co- operation, faded in the middle of 1929, For mass work he looked to the Kondratyev party alone. When Krylenko asked Groman, one of the defendants, if Ramsin’s statements were true, Groman said they were. Krylenko then asked Groman and Ginsburg if at the conferences that took place the actual time for inter- vention was discussed. Groman and Ginsburg said yes. Ramsin agreed that the Mensheviks opposed terror- ist acts, but the industrial party did not consider that important, The next witness, Larichev, gave details of joint sabotage of the in- dustrial party and the Mensheviks. Groman drew up a plan of iron out- put in 1942 of 11,000,000 tons (accord- ing to the Five-Year Plan output, the output in 1933 will be 17,000,000 tons). They were to sabotage planning in other industries accordingly. Lari- chev repeated Ramsin’s information about financing the Mensheviks. Sher, answering Krylenko, regarding the financing of the Union Bureau of the Mensheviks, admitted receiv- ing 480,000 roubles ($240,000), of which 200,000 roubles came from the industrial party and 280,000 from the Menshevik foreign bureau. (The American socialist party supplied a substantial sum of this amount— Ed.) Finnyenotaevsky admitted the transmission of the money from abroad, but denied any other par- ticipation, except attendance at meetings on theoretical questions, though he knew of the illegal or- ganiation and other general aims. Boss Court Acts to Enslave Negro Youth NEW ORLEANS, March 4.—With the cellars of the bosses full of booze and constantly being replenished, a boss court here fined Robert Folson, young Negro worker, $100 on the charge of having two gallons of whis- key in his possession, Folson was not able to pay the outrageous fine, and will probably join the thousands of Negro victims who are sold into slavery each year by the bosses’ court on a system which permits the rich land owners of this section to pay the fines of Negroes and thus obtain the court- upheld “right” to hold the Negro workers on their plantations until the they would do so if provided with | beds and warmth.

The hunger marchers had passed through numerous industrial towns on the way to Trenton. The first stop from Newark was at Elizabeth, March 1, where a good open-air| meeting was held in Union Square. | Although there was heavy downpour the workers were there to greet them, Then a meeting was held in Lin- den, where there are over 5,000 un- employed. On Feb. 10 the workers | |who demonstrated were brutally | beaten. This time not one uni- formed thug dared to do a thing. Singer Machine and Standard Oil are the main factories in the town. From Linden the hunger march- ers went on to Cartaret. A few years ago a Negro church was burned and the Negroes chased out. The Ne- Groes were brought back afterwards when needed for the fertilizer plants. The K. K. K. is controlling the town, but when the marchers came there | the whole town came out. The| school children turned out in huge numbers and when asked how many of their parents were jobless all but a few raised their hands. There is no organized group in this town, but the spirit is. great. The next town was New Bruns- wick, and the workers turned out with shouts and cheers that equaled the enthusiasm of the Cartaret work- ers. Here, out of a 40,000 population 5,000 are unemployed. Johnson and | Johnson, with over 1,000 workers, and the International Motor Co. are the biggest factories. Three years ago the latter company had 1,500 work- ers. Now they have only 175 to 200, with wages from 20 to 30 cents an hour. Wage-cuts are handed out every week. Last week the Arm- strong Coal Co. cut wages 10 per cent. The Trade Union Unity League is preparing the workers here for a strike, After the meeting the marchers were fed and the crowd hesitated to move away from in front of the cen- ter. They left an hour later, when the Center was darkened. One ar- rest was made, Monday morning, when the marchers prepared to leave the city, another meeting was held. Ar attempt was made to break up the meeting and the dicks went so far as to search the pockets of the demonstrators. The police forced the marchers to speak one block fur- ther down, near the railroad tracks, and attacked the workers with po- lice dogs. However, the meeting lasted over an hour, the local work- ers finally forcing their way through the police lines to hear the speakers. Many legionnaires attempted to stop it with clubs, but they were unsuc- cessful. Amidst cheers and songs the marchers left New Brunswick, Ce ear) Demonstrate at Perth Amboy.
