Simultaneously, there will be a steady and rapid rise of prices (an inevitable result of the financings of wars) and consequently ponding fall in real wages, An insufficiency of the first articles of neces- sity will soon make itself felt in the bulk of the countries and their illicite sale to the bourgeoisie at fabulqus prices will be seen. For the working class, employes and the wide strata of the petty bourgeoisie the “planned” economy will soon be- come simply “organized starvation.” Simultaneously, ratfonalization and intensific- ation of labor will be speeded up to an unheard of degree, The new impetus will start from that degree of intensification of labor which it would appear could not be intensified further, and at many enterprises the workers will utterly ex- haust themselves literally during the space of a few years, All that will be left of the labor pro- tective measures, as well as cll limitations on working hours, etc., will be annulled and for- gotten, a corr The Dispersed Front Further, we must remember the influence the “dispersed front” (which had no place in the last war) will have, eg., the constant risk and danger to which everyone will be exposed. The whole country will experience the tension and nervous strain of the front, will live in constant expectation of a sudden attack. One prominent American chemist has said that directly war is declared he will hasten to the front, as this will be the safest, the quietest place during the war of the future. The latter part of this statement is hardly true, for monstrous engines of mass extermina- tion will be set in motion at the front too; but it is true that there will be no great difference in this respect between the front lines and the rear, Indeed, the close and numerous connec- tions between the rear and the front will rapid- ly tend to equalize the feelings and the general mood obtaining in the armies and among the workers “at home.” : Despite the vigilant efforts of the military dictatorship, despite, too, the powerful influence capitalist and reformist agitation and propa- ganda will exercise (which undoubtedly will again successfully convince a considerable sec- tion of the toilers at the beginning of the war that they are fighting for the “motherland”), all these factors will gradually, but steadily and irrevocably, undermine the “civil peace,” un- Stable as it already is. (To be continued) ORGANIZE TO CONTINUE THE STRUGGLE! STATEMENT OF THE UNITED FRONT RANK AND FILE » STRIKE COMMITTEE, LAWRENCE, MASS. HE splendid general strike of the Lawrence textile workers, which started on October 5, was broken on November 11, 1931 in the Arling- ton and American Woolen Co. mills by the Uni- ted Textile Workers Union. The Lawrence strike was not only a struggle against a 10 per cent wage cut, it was a blow Struck against the whole national wage cutting offensive of the employers. The full forces of the Lawrence workers must now be mobilized for the support of the workers of the Pacific mills who still remain out on strike. The U.T.W. which handed out a 35 to 40 per cent wage cut to the Philadelphia hosiery work- ers and is now supporting the 10 per cent wage cut in New Bedford, was called to Lawrence by tac employers to put over the wage cut here. They never officially recognized or endorsed our Strike. The employers needed the strike-break- ing services of the U.T.W. because last February the workers won a partial victory through the strike led by the National Textile Workers Union. The employers mobilized the united forces of the government, church leaders like Rev. Mac- Donald, Milanisi, Fowler, the press and the U. T.W. and American Union leaders for their Strike-breaking moves. On the day that the U. T.W. leaders were caNed into Lawrence, the fed- eral government threw into Jail Edith Berkman, and W. T. Murdoch, the two N.T.W.U. leaders who helped to win the strike last February. The local government turned over the City Common to the U.T.W. misleaders and suppressed free speech on the Common for the Rank and File Strike Committee and the N.T.W.U. ‘The whole- sale arrest of strikers, the clubbing and tramp- jing of men and women’on the picket lines by the mounted police of Peter Carr, were the chief results of the secret conspiracy against the strik- ers hatched in the conferences of Goy. Ely, the U.T.W. leaders and the Citizens’ Committee. The U.T.W. made the first big break in the strike in the Arlington mill where they had con- trol of the situation, They carried through their betrayal at a time when our strike was being successfully spread to other woolen and worsted mills. in Maynard, Webster, Woonsocket, etc. At- ter they created the first big break the U.T.W. told the strikers to “scab,-if in your judgement you think it bes ‘They then proceeded to call meetings of the various crafts and language groups to take back to work: votes. This was their method of breaking the strike after the Rank snd File Strike Committee and the N.T. WU.-had defeated their arbitration schemes and their attempt to put thru a general fake vote together with the Citizen's Committee..When the employers decided that the time. was ripe be- eause of increased hunger to stampede the work- ers back to the American Woolen Co. mills on Tuesday Nov. 10, the U.'T.W. put its final touch on the sell-out by refusing to speak to 8,000, strikers on the City Common and tell them to continue the strike. The officials of the Amer- ican Union Inc., worked hand in hand with the U.T.W. officials in putting over this sell-out. These reactionary unions covered up their strikc-breaking moves with the radical speeches of the socialists (Muste, “Red Mike” Shulman; Alfred .Paker Lewis, etc.). These little brothers of the big labor fal:ers quit the strike in the last * two days in order to leave the ground clear for the final sell-out steps by the U.TLW The National Textile Workers Union came tor- ward with the only fighting program. for. wine ning the strike from the beginning. It stood for the united action of all the strikers, organized and’ unorganized, regardiess of union affiliation, under the central leadership of a United Front Rank and File Strike Committee. The Natianal Textile Workers Union was the only union which honestly fought for victory in our strike and sould not be bought or intimidated. Because it ¥ e was unable to sufficiently mobilize the masses to put its correct policies into effect the Rank and File’ Strike Committee and the N.T.W.U. were unable to decisively expose and defeat the U.T. W. sell-out, While the U. T. W. was actively engaged in sell- ing out the strike the Rank and File Strike Com- mittee made its final attempt to consolidate the strike. It sent delegations to the meetings of the U.T.W. and American Union Inc., on Tues- day night and presented its program for con- solidating the strike and picketing the Wood Mill on Wednesday morning, Noy. 11. The rank and file of these unions showed their sympathy with the proposals, but the officials frustrated this at- tempt to consolidate the strike. The failure of the picket line on Wednesday morning and the continuation of the back to work stream into the A.W.C. mills made it clear that the employ- ers and their U.T.W. agents had broken the back of our general strike. On this basis we recom- mend to the remaining strikers of the Arlington and A.W.C. mills that they adopt an organized retreat back to the mills. A drive against all attempts to discriminate | against strikers must now be carried through. The workers in the mills must unite with those still out to demand no discrimination against any worker on account of his strike activity. Committees of workers, of those in the mill and those still out, must be formed to go to the boss and demand that every striker be taken back to his job. Organization is necessary to continue the strug- gle for the return of the 10 per cent wage cut. The fact that the workers came out on strike unorganized was a fatal weakness in our strike. The employers will also be encouraged to put over new wage Cuts. It is significant that on the very day that our strike is sold out the an- nouncement of a 10 per cent wage cut is posted in the New Bedford mills. The drive against these cuts will be organized by- the N.T.W.U. Take out the fighting membership card of the National Textile Workers Union. Build an N. ‘T.W.U. local in every mill. The N.T.W.U. is in Lawrence to stay and will always keep a suffi- lent force of organizers here, Unite the workers in the mill to fight for the return of the 10 per cent wage cut, against _com- ing wage cuts, against all department grievances and diseriminations by establishing 2 United Front Mill Committee. This committee consists of delegates from all departments representing all the workers, organized and unorganized, re- gardless of union affiliation. The Rank and File Strike Committee calls upon the workers of New England to continue their support of relief and defense for the Lawrence strikers. The relief store will be kept open to:feed as many needy strikers’ families as possible. We insist on our demand for un- employment insurance and immediate winter re- lief. We demand that the school children be provided free warm food and necessary cloth- ing. We demand free gas, light and fuel for the unemployed workers. These demands to be granted by the government at the expense of the rich. We must develop 3 mass campaign for the defenso of all strike prisoners. Free Berkman, Murdceh, Donigian and the others arrested in the strike! The Lawrence workers have received a tem- porary’ set’ back. They are not defeated. They are going back to the mills organized to con- tinue the struggle against the greed and ex- ploitation of the mill owners. With ‘united ranks We go forward to fresh battles and real victories!

Japanese troops | have arrived from Korea and troops are being mobilized in Japan itself. The present goal of Eastern Mongolia and the provinces of Chili énd Snantung. This aggressive action of the Japanese imper- ialist tropos was long planned and prepared by the Japanese government. The Chinese Soviet | government previously repeatedly declared that | the imperialist robber states would never aban- don their endeavors finally to colonize China | and divide it among themsglyes, until the work- | ing masses drove the imperialist robbers out of the country and shattered the Kuomintang gov- | ernment of the Chinese bourgeoisie and land- owners, who capitulate to the imperialists. The present measures of occupation and oppression on the part of the Japanese government are the continuation of its aggressive imperialist policy towards China which commenced already with the Sino-Japanese and the Japan-Russian wars, with the dictated treaty containing the notorious 21 points, and with the Tsinan blood bath. The precursors of the new imperialsit advance by Japan of the present occupation of Manchuria and the future attack on Inner Mongolia and | North China, were the pogroms in Wan Bau | Schan and the massacres in Korea in general, the bloody events in Tsingtau and the affair of Capiain Nakamura. The “counter-measures” | of the treacherous Kuomintang government con- sist in concealing from the masses the enor~ mous importance of these events, keeping the masses calm and peaceful, and thus patiently to await the complete enslavement of the Chinese | people by imperialism. | ‘The intentions of the Japanese imperialists are perfectly obvious.’ With the occupation of Manchuria they aim at consolidating their rule in Manchuria and Mongolia, bringing the Chin- | ese people still more under the yoke of their ex- | ploitation and oppression, in order to increase their own profits and thereby overcome the eco- nomic crisis in their own country, and beyond this to prepare the imperialist war for hegemony in the Far Bast and the war against the Soviet Union. The present events are a warning signal for the world proletariat; they are the harbing- ers of a second world war, of a war against the Soviet Union! As a result of recent events the oppressed and exploited masses of China are more and more coming to realize that the fight against the robber campaigns of the imperialists against China is inseparably connected with the fight agaifst imperialist war, with the defense of the Soviet Union. “That the action of the Japanese imperialists has assumed such an open and unrestrained form is solely because the reactionary Kucmin- tang government, ever .ince its existence, has continualiy grovelled in the most shameful man- ner before world imperialism; because, as for in- stance in the negotiations on the occasion of the | various body attacks of the imperialists in Nank- ing, Hankow, Tsinan and more recently in Wan Bau Schan, it has sold the interests of the Chinese people. ‘The Nanking government has always endeavored to suppress the revolutionary mass movement against Japanese imperialism. ‘Thus the occupation of Manchuria can take Place with the toleration of Nanking govern- the Japanese advance is Northern Manchuria, * By mail everywhere of Manhatian SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $6; six months, $3; two months, York City.

Oppressed masses of China! Do not place your hopes in the Kuomintang government taking any steps against the Jap- anese imperialists! They wish to force the revo- lutionary masses to their knees before imperial- ism! They will go begging to the robbers for peace; they will order?their own troops to allow themselves to be peacefully disarmed by the Japanese troops, in order thereby to prove to the Japanese government their shameful capitu- lation! Do not cherish any filusions that the various military cliques of the Kuomintang will conclude peace among themselves and unite against the Japanese attack! They will seek to outdo one another in their betrayal of the interests of the people, and thus smooth the way for Japanese imperialism. Do not give any credence to the lying phrases of a “cooperation of all classes for the common fight against the outer enemy.” ‘The capitalists have already made use of this opportunity in order to put forward their slogan of “increased output of the workers.” Do not have\any confidence in the League of Nations or the Kellogg Pact preventing *the acts of robbery of Japanese imperialism! These are the institutions of the imperialist robbers them- selves! Only the oppressed Chinese people themselves can, in the common fight together with all ex- ploited classes and peoples of the world, over- throw the rule of world imperialism and bring their robber-plans to naught! The exploited masses of China must recognize: Whilst the various military cliques of the Kuo- mintang, the bourgeoisie and the landowners, to- gether with the imperialist Powers, are forging their plans how best to exploit and oppress the Chinese massés, and are themselves prepared to sacrifice the interests of national independence to the imperialists (the occupation of Manchuria is an example of this), the Chinese Soviet gov- ernment which is leading the masses for the carrying out of the agrarian revolution and for the anti-imperlalist fight, is striving with all its forces for national emancipation, for the over- throw of the rule of all imperialists in China! In the Sovict, districts the positions of power and the priviloges of all the imperialists have been consistently and ruthlessly abolished. ‘The fight of the broadest masses against imperialism is promoted and protected by the Soviets. Already for a year the Kuomintang troops, ac- companied by the aircraft ar gunboats of the imperialists, have been conducting a campaign against the Soviets, against the revolutionary workers and peasants and their red army. They wish to smash io pieces the only anti-imperialist, Power, the Soviet government. Therefore, the reactionary Kuomintang government, imme- diately ‘after the Japanese occupation of Man- churia, declared: “The Red Bands must be ex- terminated root and branch.” They realize that without the “extermination of the Reds” the broad mass fight against Japanese imperialism cannot be crushed, and as a result Japanese im- perialism cannot be appeased. But the broad masses of the workers and peas- ants and all the oppressed and exploited sec- tions of the population have in these years the midst of the agrarian revolution and of the anti-imperialist fight, demonstrated their in- flexible determination and their unvanquishable power. The Soviet Power of the workers, peas- ants and poor population has been set up in districts in the provinces of Hunan, Hupeh, Ho- nan, Kiangsi, ‘Fukien, Kwantung, Anhwei, ete. ‘The continual victories of the Red workers and peasants army and the defeat and demoraliza- tion of the Kuomintang troops evoke a real panic Appeal of the Central Chinese Soviet Government Against the Robber Campaign ot Japan Imperialism By BURCK H mood in the Nanking government. All this is a first step on the way to the final victory over imperialism and the rule of the Kuomintang. he robber-attack of the Japanese imperialists can only increase the indignation of the revolu- tionary masses and extend the anti-imperialist fight. No pacification maneuvers and m2asures of suppression by the Kuominionz can in any way alter this, The dockworkers on the quays in Shanghai where the Japanese ships are berthed, protest by: a strike; the Chinese stu- dents leave the Japanese Tung-Wen-school; the defense detachment of the Mukden mine-thrower factory has fallen in the fight against the Jap- anese occupation troops. The Soviet government expresses its revolu- tionary sorrow and sympathy for these victims of the mass fight against Japanese imperialism. It believes that the development of this fight will stir up the broadest masses of the oppressed and exploited. The workers will link up the fight against Japanese imperialism with the fight for the overthrow of the Kuomintang rule, for the setting up of the Soviet power; they will rally round the fighting banner of the Soviet govern- ment. “~The Japanese imperialists must be called upon immediately to withdraw their troops from Man- churia, and the whole of the Japanese military sea, land, and air forces from China; to give back without compensation the Southern Man- churian railway, and the Japanese concessions in Port Arthur and Dairen. All the privileges of the Japanese imperialists, all unequal treaties which the counter-revolutionary Chinese gov- ernments have conchitded with them, must be annulled. Only thus can the basis of the Japanese im- perialist attack on China be completely de- stroyed. ‘The Chinese Soviet Government, supported by the whole of the oppressed and exploited popu- lation of China, will not recognize any treacher- ous treaties and secret agreements concluded by the Kuomintang government with the Japanese imperialists as a result of the occupation of Manchuria, The Chinese Soviet Government further points out that it is necessary that the working popu- Jation of China, in this fight against the Kuo- mintang rule, against all treacherous and capitu- latory views, and gfoupings, against all imper- ialists, unite with all classes oppressed, and ex- ploited by world imperialism, with the colonial and semi-colonial peoples, and especially with the workers and peasants of the Soviet Union and Japan. In the Soviet districts of China, the broadest revoutionary working, and peasant masses, led by the Chinese Soviet Government, stand in the midst of the fight against the Kuomintang mili- tarists who are supported and led by the imper- ialists. This fight is at the same time an anti- imperialist fight for the emancipation of the people. The brutal action of Japanese imperial- ism in Manchuria is also directed against the advancing Soviet Revolution in China, and also aims at setting up and consolidating the direct rule of Japan'in North China for the purpose of fighting against the Chinese revolution. Workers and peasants of oppressed China! Will you allow yourselves, under the rule of the Kuomintang, to be enslaved by Japanese imperialism? Or will you, under the leadership of the Soviet Power, take up the irreconcilable fight against Japanese imperialism? ‘The increased revolutionary fights, just as the barbarous rule of the imperialists and the Kuo- mintang, are forcing you on to the path of the Soviet revolution. Unite for the common fight in the territories of the Kuomintang rule! Work- ers, down tools! Peasants, revolt! Students, school children, strike! Small shopkeepers, close your shops! Soldiers, mutiny! Wage a common fight against imperialism, for the overthrow of the Kuomintang reaction, the lackeys of imper- ialism! Take part in the revolutionary civil war! Extend the front of the fight for emancipa- tion! Thus the Soviet revolution becomes the only force for putting an end to the acts of violence of Jar nese imperialism, for finally crushing the position of power of imperialism in China! eae i) It’s Too Bad “My dear sir:—Your attention is invited te the encosed literature with the view of enlisting your sympathy and support in a campaign to secure national recognition of Christ the King, God the Father is the source of all authority in civil government; Jesus Christ His Son is the divinely appointed Ruler of Nations; submission’ to His Rule is the nation’s duty and privilege, the only guarantee of national prosperity.” We knew that they would bring the “prose perity” in somewhere. You will perceive that we are quoting a letter. It is signed by W. J. Cole- man on the letterhead of “Witness Commite tee, Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America.” Well, if these are the “reformed” guys, what are the hardshells like? All they want is a King, and the first step is to get the U. S. Constitution changed to “recognize” monarchy in the form or religion. Listen to their lament: “It is a striking and lamentable fact, however we may account for it, that there is no recognition of God in the National Constitution.” Well, we don’t care! But this sort of thing shows you that under capitalism you can expect to run across anything prehistoric, like a dinoseur trotting up Fifth Avenue, What Can You Expect? We were overjoyed to learn that the Young Communist League is very much ALL RIGHT—O —but that was, or is, in Minnesota! There the Y. C. L. has a lot of fine farmor lads who after long days in the fields still find time for work in the League, says the Y. C. L. District Organizer, Have they time for study, too, Com- rade? Don’t forget that! Yes, we're proud of Minnesota. And we are also proud of the many fine girls and boys right here in New York who have the makings of our future Party in their hands. But we can’t say that we were otherwise than hurt to learn that a group of the League of Struggle for Negro Rights in this benighted city hhas removed a Y. C. L. member from the exccu- tive “for inactivity” and a mass organization of youth had to explain to the Y. C. L. that another League member conducted himself so stupidly sectarian and snobbish that it was forced to exclude him from its ranks. When non-Party workers reluctantly take such steps it appears to us that the League itcelf might find time to translate self criticism from abstraction to action. * Night Hawk In the N. Y. (Porno) G; eS who is an engaging liar, writing unde: the name of “The Night Hawk,” who is supposed io get into the gangs of the underworld, the smuggiers and so on, and “expose them.” 3 Actually, he gets no further than the Harlem speakeasies where, with the help cf liquid im- agination, he elaborates the material on gang- land that can be found in any public library. In the issue of Noy. 11 he tells a tale that should give the fascist dictator of Cuba the jim- mies. He says there are 40,000 “Red Russians” in Cuba, all “waiting for the opportunity to be smuggled into the U. S. A.” Firstly, we will bet, well . . . anything, that there are not 40,000 people of Russian birth in Cuba, let alone “Red Russians.” An4 the fake of the story is evident when we consider that the Night Hawk talks like it was the easiest thing in the world to get smuggled into the U. S. if you Imve the kale, and he says they have it in wegonloads—yet there they stick, those 40,000 waiting.” to They certainly must be desperate characters if they want to get into this starvation ridden land! So the Night Hawk says:—‘“Fiery young- sters and girls feverish with thoughs of the Third International.” We never saw a girl get a Second International fever, so it may be true, but it sounds funny. And then: “You can see them’—the whole 40,000, no doubt—‘afterward bharanguing the crowds in Union-Square, New York.” Did you ever see a worse liar get paid for cuch tubbish! O'd man McFadden musi be short of sense and long on dollars to hire such pineheads. Incidentally, the World-Telegram, which writes such heart-rending editorials against bosses Jay- ing off workers, has not long ago fired nearly all the old workers it took over from the “World.” Some of the most loyal upholders of capitalism, too. So being a snake is no guarantee of a job these days. About these “Red Russians” though. We have been telling you that Doak would spring deporta- tion charges against the American born. And now the Doak has charged Bill Dunne with being a “foreigner”! He was around a strike, and that is enough to make anybody a foreigner. So if you are an American, you better be able ta prove it or pick out a country to be deported to that has a climate that agrees with you. Se churla by Japanese imperialism!
