DAILY WORKER NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 2, 1932 Mothers ot Two Famous Class Victims to Speak in Phila. NEW YORK, N. Y.—Mothers of two famous victims of the frame-up system will plead for working class defense of their sons on the same platform, when Mrs. Mary Mooney, 84 year old mother of Tom Mooney, and Mrs. Viola Montgomery, mother of 16 year old Olen Montgomery, a Scottsboro boy, pA uit ees SES Set et speak at the Metropolitan Opera’ House, Philadelphia, on March 2, at 8 pm. The meeting will be under the auspices of the International La- bor Defense. Mother Mooney, whose son was sentenced to death 15 years ago, framed because % his militant labor activities, told 15,000 workers in the Bronx Coliseum, New York, last week: “Nobody knows better than I do how the mothers of these Scotts- boro boys must feel. My heart bleeds for them, Like them, I am a mother who heard her innocent son sen- tenced to death, framed-up by the courts of the ruling class. I feel a deep bond of sympathy with them.” Standing at her side at that moment was lUttle Mary Alice Montgomery, sister of Olen. Following her Philadelphia appear- | ance, Mother Mooney will return to New York for a farewell banquet in Yew York, March 6, at 8 p.m., at the Irving Plaza. From there she will go to Wash- ington on March 4, where another meeting will be held under the a pices of the International Labor De- fense. While in Washington Mother Mooney will try to see President Hoover to press action toward the freeing of her son. She will also de- mand of Senator Norris, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, that he force the publishing of the Wick- ersham report on the Mooney frame-up. The report has been withheld from the public. At one time it was even declared “lost” when the so-called “insurgents” of the Senate demanded its publication. It is said to con- demn the frame-up. On her way West, Mother Mooney will speak at other I.L.D. meetings in Buffalo and the anthracite region of Northern Pennsylvania. From there she goes to a meeting in Cleveland, and on March 18 a mon- ster mass meeting in the Chicago Coliseum. Meetings are scheduled for Detroit and other cities, the I. L. D. an- nounced. JAPANESE PLAN MOVEMENT OF HUGE ARMY AGAINST SOVIET UNION FRONTIERS CONTINUED BROW PAGE OVER its activities, hard and ruthless its metheds, that of internation- al Communism, backed by the arm- cd and ever-arming force of Russia. “I wonder whether this may not be the time for the English-speak- inr world to stand between the dis- trected people of Europe and Asia and the stream of Communism.” This is an open call for IMMED- IATE wer against the Soviet Union. A sharp warning on the nearness of armed intervention by the imper- ialists against the Soviet Union is contained in yesterday's issue of the} Red Star, organ of the Red Army of workers and peasants of the Soviet Union. The Red Star declares that developments in the Far East clearly show the attempts of the imperialists to submerge their differences before the necessity of establishing a united front for an attack against the Soviet Union. It points out: “Developments in the Far East, the readjustment of imperialist groups resulting from these events and, finally, the developments at the disarmament conference, all provide good material for the education of our soldiers. By citing events in the Far East, we will be able to explain to them the development ef capitalistic wars, their causes and the methods employed. The positions being taken by the im- ' perialists in the war which is being prepared against the U.S.S.R. will be exposed, and thus it will be pos- sible to reach certain conclusions concerning the character of that fnture war.” Polish officers and military attach- es at Warsaw are reported atly perturbed at the poor showing made by the Japanese Army both in Man- churia and at Shanghai, South China. They significantly compare the blun- dering military tactics of the Japanese Army with the brilliant tactics of the Soviet Red Army when in October, 1929, it was forced to defend the Chi- nese Eastern Reilway from the raids of Chinese militarists in the pay of the imperialists. Walter Duranty in & dispatch to the New York Times reports that the military attaches contrast “the preliminary staff work and the synchronization of the Soviet attack and the morale of the Red Army with the ‘inadequate prepara- tion. clumsy tactics and low fighting quality’ of the Japanese forces at Bhanghai.” The Polish military officers and oreign military attaches at Warsaw vho have been making their plans ‘or a Joint imperialist atack on the Soviet Union on the basis of the pow- er of the Japanese war machine find little consoldation in this comparison. Japan's role in the imperialist war |~ plans is to attack the Soviet Union on its Siberian frontiers at the same time Poland and the other pup- pet states in Europe of French im- perialism attack on the western front- lers of the Soviet Union. “The Soviet,” Duranty says, “has made no secret of the fact that its Far Eastern force has been re- grouped in the Pacific coast region under General Bluecher-Galen. In number and equipment they are really competent, in the opinion of observers, to repel any attack, not only of the White Russians, but such as the regular forces of Japan could make in the next three months.” The dispatch admits th’ an addi- ‘ional element of defensi » strength Durenty, like other imperialist ob- sistance against the Japanese in the Imienpo district near the Soviet bor- “submit” to the Kirin puppet gov- ernment set up by the Japanese and their Chinese tools. The Japanese are reported to have countermanded the order for an advance of Japanese troops on Imienpo, toward the Soviet frontier. These two significant de- velopments follow closely on the heels of the sharp warning issued by the Soviet Union a few days ago to the Japanese imperialists. doned their program for war against. | the Soviet Union, but have merely postponed the attack to a more suit- able occasion is clearly indicated in a statement by the Japanese Foreign Office spokesman as reported in a Tokio dispatch to the New York Trib- une. The dispatch states: “Discussing the situation along the Russian border. the Foreign Of- fice spokesman today said that if peace were reached at Shanghai the Japanese troops now in the Shanghai area might be sent to Manchuria as ‘replacements.’ In this connection it was recalled that Japanese forces were sent to Man- churia at various times last year as ‘replacements,’ but that the troops they were intended to replace were not withdrawn.” The Japanese troops at Shanghai now number over one hundred thou- murderous weapons of modern war- fare. Winston Churchill's statement is an two worlds, the Soviet world of the workers and the capitalist world of the exploiters and oppressors. It is| a clear self-exposure of the sinister | for a war of desperation against the rising, flourishing world of Socialism and against the tens of millions of destitute and sterving workers in the capitalist countries and in the col- onjes who are rallying to the support of the Soviet world, daily realizing that the Soviet world holds the only hope for the future of the working class. ‘The desperation of the dying world of capitalism is expressed even more clearly in the following statement by the New York Post of Feb. 14: “France, America and England, especially the last two countries, will do well to realize the menace of Socialism in the background and that capitalism is on trial. Fur- ther prolonged world depression with unemployment might have far consequences.’ Dying capitalism is seeking a way out of the consequences of the world crisis engulging it, 2 way out at the expense of the life blood and misery of the toiling masses, at the expense of the tremendous victories of the working class in the Soviet Union and in Soviet China, the only two sections of the world where the con- ditions of the working class are being steadily improved. Workers! The splendid achieve- ments of the workers in the Soviet Union and in Soviet China repre- sent the victories of your class, the working class, over the capitalist rob- bers and oppressors! You must mob- ilize your forces to defend these vic- tories of your class! You must or- to resist the bloody plot of world imperialism to push you into another world slaughter!

The Lapuan movement has been able to get behind it a large num- ber of peasants by means of a series of lying promises. The development of the crisis has made the fascists desperate, and the presnet move is not being fought by the present Svinhufvud government, which it- self grew out of a similar fascist grouping. Only the Communist Party, which has been driven underground, but which is working through “legal” workers’ organizations, is preparing the resistance of the masses against the fascist coup. In July, 1930, the famous fascist leader and present President of Fin- land, Svinhufvud, organized a march of peasants to the capitol, where with extra-parliamentary methods he made the peasants demand that en- ergetic steps be taken against the Communists. From that time there has been an open fascist’ dictator- ship in Finland. The papers now talk of a new peasants’ march to Helsingfors. It is apparent that President Svin- hufvud “needed” this kind of extra~ parliamentary pressure as an excuse to take stronger measures against the revolutionary workers’ movement. ‘The purpose of such maneuvers is to draw the attention of the impover- ished peasants away from the real | causes of their misery. Svinhufvud, who was premier dur- ing the civil war and who is notori- ous as a slaughterer of workers, was made president of Finland two years ago with the consent of England and other large powers, when big prep- arations were begun to make Fin- land a base of attack against the Soviet Union. At that time Svin- hufvud was given the job of clean- ing Finland of the Reds and of ac- | tivizing the people in every way to help the imperialist powers prepare war, Svinhufvyud has faithfully carried out this task, using every method to his advantage, and organizing of peasants’ marches is one of these. HUNGER SPREADS AMONG MAHONIN STEEL WORKERS By FRANK ROGERS YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio. A few examples to show utmost poverty and hunger among the steel workers in the Mahoning Valley: A few days before the resignation of Mr. Campbell, multi-millionatre chairman of the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Co., a steel worker com- mitted suicide by Jumping off the | South Ave. bridge in Youngstown. He left behind him a wife and ten chil- dren. Also a note that he could no longer stand hunger and see his fa- sand and are equipped with all the|mily starve before his very eyes. This | worker was employed in the Republic Steel Company for 27 years and was unemployed only for a little over a open admission of the existence of 74? His wages were so small that jhe had no savings to feed his family altho he had slaved for twenty-seven years in the steel company. Scores of workers, especially Negro aims of the dying world of capitalism | Workers, have been shot during the | past six weeks by steel and coal com- |pany police because they took coal |from cars and supply houses to keep from freezing. Instead of receiving medical attention after being shot the workers were thrown into jail and treated as high class criminals and railroaded to terms of imprison- ment. A worker is in the county jail today as a suspect in shooting @ localbuild- ing contractor. The worker claims he was shooting blackbirds to feed his family of ten. He has been un- employed for 15 months and receives no relief from the local charities or the city. There has been several deaths at the infamous “Hoover City” located at the city incinerator. The deaths have been from starvation but the police record them as “accidents.” The demagog, Mr. Moore, Mayor of Youngstown, still presents reports to the city council and the newspapers that there is no hunger in Youngs- town. But facts prove that his, “ex- periment” to open one soup kitchen in the city to see if there are hungry people resulted in 500 workers storm- ing the reef kitchen for food. To- day the report shows that the number has grown to 4,000 within a few weeks and today the city is discussing how relief kitchens. Rumors are that the workers will be forced to work two hours before receiving any, relief at the soup lines. The basic task conttectigg the re- volutionary workers in the Mahoning Valley section is the building of a mass unemployed movement. Imme- diate steps must be taken to overcome past shortcomings and the building of block and soupline committees of the Unemployed Councils everywhere as a powerful force in the’ struggles of the steel workers fighting against hunger, terror and war. “We are pronouncing in good faith the words ‘the dictatorship of the proletariat’ and we shall make them Chinese Communists Raid Swatow Lighthouse Used to Aid Imperialist Warships Chinese Workers In Manchuria Blow Up Powder Magazine on Outskirts of City of Harbin Kuomintang Working With Imperialists to Betray Heroic Defenders of Shanghai; New Blood Bath Planned Chinese Communists on Saturday raided the Breaker Point Lighthouse, 80 miles southwest of Swatow, and captured the staff of foreign keepers of the Lighthouse.

The Kuomintang authorities at Swatow are co-operating with ma- rines from the British warship Whitehall in an effort to capture the Chinese Communists who carried out the daring raid. The British war- ship Keppel is being rushed from Hongkong to Swatow, demonstrating the realization of the imperialists that the raid on the lighthouse is not an isolated action, bue represents the revolutionary mood of the Swatow workers. Chinese workers in Manchuria yes- terday blew up a huge powder maga- zine on the southern outskirts of Harbin. One hundred Japanese sol- diers are reported to have been killed or injured in the blast, The Japanese yesterday launched @ new and more furious attack against the heroic workers and sol- diers defending the South China city of Shanghai. Under cover of a fake armistice, arranged by the United States and British imperialists, with the connivance of the Kuomintang betrayers of China, the Japanese landed large numbers of fresh troops in the International Sattlement at Shanghai for the new offensive. La- test Shanghai dispatches report the Japanese advancing on the entire Chapei-Woosung front. Powerful imperialist and Kuomin- tang forces are at work in Shanghai to effect the betrayal of the defense of the city. A bloody attack is being prepared against. the revolutionary masses of Shanghai and the rank and file soldiers in the Nineteenth Route Army, whose support of the revolutionary masses forced the Kuo~ mintang leaders to make a pretense of supporting the defense of Shang- hai begun by the masses under the leadership of the Chinese Army, has already attacked the anti-Japanese movement, ordering the discontinu- ance of the strike of Chinese shop- keepers against the Japanese inva- sion of China. The strike has been enforced by the revolutionary work- ers of Shanghai. General Tsai has The Kiangsi Soviet District, incorporated in the Chinese Soviet«- which is | ordered its discontinuance under the pretext that the strike benefitted no one “and eventually would seriously | injure the poorer classes.” Two Chinese aviators, shot down by Japanese planes, are reported to have been wounded by dum dum bul- lets fired by the Japanese planes. The use of dum dum bullets is sup- posed to be illegal. British physi- clans report that the wounds caused | by the dum dum bullets would neces- sitate amputating the arm of one of | the Chinese airmen. Chinese doctors coming in from the Chapei-Woosung front have charged that their work is made dangerous by Japanese aviators, who swoop low and send a hail of machine-gun bullets into the little parties of Red Cross workers searching the battlefield. Intense suffering is reported among the thousands of Chinese children, whose homes have been destroyed and their parents killed or maimed for life by the ruthless Japanese bombardment of tie densely populated Chapei proleta- | rian district of Shanghai. A story in the New York Times quotes Owen F, Roberts, an American capitalist, as admitting: “The condition of these innocent victims of war is pitiable beyond description. Hundreds of them were made orphans by the ruth- less bombing and machine-gun fire that destroyed the homes of tens of thousands of peaceful non-com- batants.” Workers! Demand a stop to the robber war against China! Stop the butchery of the Chinese masses by the Japanese imperialists! Demand the withdrawal of all imperialist war- ships and troops from China! Drive out the diplomatic agents of Japa~ nese imperialism, the spearhead in the butchery of the Chinese masses and the war provocation against the Soviet Union!

NEW TACTICS IN THE HUNGER OFFENSIVE (CONTINUED FROM PAGT ONE) son responsible for the “relief” of the unemployed in each city block—pre~- ferrably by appointment from above. A further phase of the “block-aid” plan, although as not yet universal; is to have an assessment of 25 to 50 cents per week levied on all employed workers in a given block—the total sum to be placed at the disposal of the “block-aider.” In other words, the plan, when this part of it is applied under the high sounding slogan of “help your less fortunate neighbor,” or some equally deceptive catch phrase with which capitalist charity programs cover up their basic role as part of the whole drive against the living standards of the working class, actually accom- plishes the delightful double result of putting more of the burden of caring for the unemployed upon those themselves pay for the maintenance of go-betweens and spies for the ca~ pitalists, their various agencies, and th police. The “block-aiding” scheme, there- fore, obviously is 4n attempt to or- ganize the workers against their own interests—to place the control of all relief of unemployment in the hands of the capitalists responsible for the to cut down on the expenses of the | ™#$8 misery. It is likewise obvious that this scheme is designed to check and dis- rupt all struggles for lower rents, for lower food prices, against evictions, against discrimination against Ne- groes. It is designed to prevent the organization of Unemployed Councils, hunger marches and mass meetings, organized demands upon the city, county, state and national govern- ment. It is designed first of all to prevent militant organization of the unem- ployed. It is intended to keep any organization which develops in con- trol of the enemies of the unemploy- ed.

The acid test is the struggle for the Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill. r Like its bejeweled and hennaed sister, the “Give a Million Jobs” drive, with the American Federation of La- bor leadership and the fascist Ameri- can Legion procuring for her, the “block-aid system” has two main pur- poses—strengthening and perpetuat- ing the illusions about the nature and extent of the present crisis, creating confidence in capitalism and its so- lutions for the crisis, second, check- ing the struggle for Workers Unem- ployment Insurance, discrediting the Communist leadership of the strug- gles of the unemployed and employed workers, and setting up a fascist or- ganization among the unemployed subservient to every interest of Am- erican capitalism. Tt is necessary to emphasise once more, that these two drives— the “Give a Million Jobs,” and the “Block Aid Service,” with the leadership in the hands of semi-official agencies of the war department, of individuals | whose reactionary war record is known, of the fascist American Le- || gion and A.

Press Ignores Strike The newspapers of Boston, without ridiculous position regarding the strike under the leadership of the United Front Strike Committee, which consists of members of the Needle ‘trades Workers Industrial Union, members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union and unorganized workers. By ignoring the news releases and statements issued by the United Front Strike Committee, the news- papers show openly that they are on the side of the bosses and their agents, the I. L. G. W. U. officials. Whatever mention is made of the strikers under the leadership of the United Front Strike Committee, they are mentioned as “Communists,” “Reds,” “Radicals,” at the time when there are also members on the Strike Committee who are democrats and republicans. At the time when the streets are full of pickets of the United Front Strike Committee, the papers, like os- triches, hide their heads in the belief that this will make the fact non- existent. Workers Challenge Fakers ‘The workers employed in the Bin- der Bros. Cloak Co. challenged Mr. Halpern and Mr. Kramer, officials of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union, to make no settle- ments in the cloak shops below the conditions contained in the agree- ment signed between Binder Bros. and the Needle Trades Workers In- dustrial Union. “We reject emphatically any state- ment,” said the challenge, “to the effect that the settlement agreed upon by the workers of the shop and adopted at a mass meeting of strikers, held Thursday, Feb. 25, is against the | interests of the masses of cloak- makers in the city of Boston.” The challenge accused Halpern | and Kramer of doing everything in | their power to split the ranks of the cloakmakers by expelling the most militant members from the Inter- national. “You. were organizing for a blood- shed between the workers of this shop,” continued the challenge, “and the striking cloakmakers. We know your game, Mr. Halpern. We are not afraid of a fight. We will fight you and fight the bosses until we clean you out of the ranks of the workers, but we have no fight with the work- ers. You cannot split our ranks again. We will continue the fight for unity and for better working conditions in spite of you and your masters, the bosses. We decided not to go to work, in order not to give you a possibility to divert the at- tention of the workers from their struggle agains the bosses to a struggle within their own ranks.
