Speakers in English and Spanish are announced, Urging the thousands of workers of San Francisco, victimized by wage cuts and unemployment, to express Tampa workers, the sponsors of the meeting have issued a vigorous call, explaining the background for the attacks upon the tobacco workers and drawing a parallel with the Imperial Valley case. “Fifty-three years in jail for 15 workers was the Tampa, Fla., tobac- co bosses’ answer to efforts of their workers to improve their miserable conditions,” the call says. “Fourteen thousand tobacco work-— ers there are going through the suf- | fering of unemployment and starva-— tion wages. The average wage is $10 to $12 for 56 hours of grueling laber. | To fight these conditions the thous-, ds of Latin-American workers in ‘Tampa plants affiliated themselves Masses. The anti-imperialist nature of the demonstration at Shanghai is clear- ly seen in this admission and in the additional statement that “an ap- parently prearranged barrage of large and small firecrackers was set off. It served as cover for occasional re~ volver and rifle shots. Immediately tear seized the entire [foreign area, and extra police, soldier and sailor Suards occupied the streets.” A later Shanghai dispatch to the Mew Yorl Times reveals even more cleurly the anti-imperialist nature of nanghai demonstration and the Jeeding role the Chinese Com- ~ Party in the struggle againsi brigands and their The dispatch re- e raiding of working class ad the arrest of Chin- perlalisi troops in the Settlement: “Untermational Settlement au- ded their efforts te up a gang of alleged Com- The headquarters of the Masses’ Association > raiders sought to on of the hage by the United States, | district in Shanghai.

The Lindbergh case, in a word, is being utilized to strengthen the position of the capitalist class and its laws, courts and police as against, the American working class. Only the Communist Party and its press exposes this siniste the case. The New York Times for March 7 publishes a statement by United States Attorncy General Mitchell under the following headlines: “STRENGTHEN POLICE, MITCHELL ADVISES.—Official in Radio Talk Calls Upon Citizens to Protect Police from Politics and Obey Laws.” It is the police who need protection, according to this Hoover ap- pointee. The cold facts that it is the mass of the working population which needs protection from the police and their gangster allies. Mitchell makes an extended plea whitewashing the police and urging their further removal from any criticism and control except that of their immediate masters—the capitalists and their political hirelings. Mitchell says: “Many heinous crimes have gone unpunished because the police agencies, although doing their best, had not had the necessary expert training and equipment. Police forces are not eniirely responsible for such deficiencies. Too much emphasis has recently been laid in the public mind on criticism of police methods. Instead of pam- pering the evildoers, we should strengthen the arm of the police, protect them from political interference and give them expert train- ing and scientific equipment, and bungling of important cases would be less frequent and there would be less temptation for police to tesort te rongh or clumsy tactics. “When all is said, however, we finally reach the point of real- iuing that in the United States our great trouble is the attitude of the individual citizen toward law; lack of a sense of personal ob- ligation to obey carefully every law; the disposition of traffic with Jaw violators, and to be cynical about crime conditions in our own communities; and an unwillingness to accept for ourselves or teach our chlidren the principles of obedience.” Dictatorial powers for the police—unquestioning obedience from the mass of the population—this is the gist of the Mitchell proposals. Noth- ing is wrong with the police—except that they still have not enough power. ‘These proposals are entirely in line with the whole starvation and war program of American imperialism. i. e., to kill two birds angle of They embody the essence of the reign of terror in Kentucky and | Tennessee. ‘These proposals are an essential part of the whole scheme of Wall Street government to take advantage of every occurrence and turn it to its purposes for the strengthening of the capitalist. dictatorship. ‘Wage cuts universal, new wage cuts beingfi prepared—as in the sicel industry--mass unemployment and mass misery increasing, unemployinent relief admittedly on the starvation level, killings, clubbings, gassing and jailing of workers in every struggle; these are the conditions in the United States today. ‘The ruling class program is for more suppression. The Communist Party program is for mass organization and niass struggle against the starvation and war program, revolutionary struggle against the capitalist dictatorship. The Communist Party calls upon the working class to be on guard, to organize and fightthe caplialist offensive at every point. Join the revolutionary Party of your class~the Communist Party!
