Kinosuke ‘Adachi, bourgeois Japanese pub- licist who often acts in the role of spokesman for the Japanese Foreign Office, is quoted in a Washington dispatch to the New York World-Telegram as de tween Russia and Japan in th that “militarily speaking the qu be for Japan:*: The dispatch fw “Russia and Japan, are like two locomotives racing to- wards each other_on a single t lision is ineseapadle.” ' In his interview ‘with the World-| Tel m, Mr.” Adachi attempts to 'y lis statement of Japan's war aims against the’ Soviet Union with the pretense that it is to be a strug- gie over foreigh Yértitory, over Man- churia. While Voicing the plan of the notorious Tanaka document for an attack onthe Soviet Union, Mr. Adachi attempts to cover tip the rob- ber aims of those plans—for the seiz- ure of Soviet soil, for the destruction of the achievements of Socialist con- siruction in the Soylet ‘Union, He veniently ignores the tact that the Soyist Union hes been Heutral in the present struggle in Manchuria.

He sey “Militarily speaking, the quicker it comes the better it will be for Japan, Economically, a delay would would be more to her (the Soviet Union) liking, ry day Russia is growing stro} and better preo™ pared, and then 1 existing hos tility to Russia, “pai ‘ticularly in Eu- rope, is now in Japan's favor.

Rainey, of Illinois, democratic floor’ leader, finally arose and declared the presi- economy program of the House. Rainey described the document as for 1932. The Hoover message and the dem- ocratic insurgent republican reaction to it is merely a smoke screen under which both republican and demo- cratic political leaders in the admin- istrative and legislative branches of the government are préparing ‘for more drastic “direct. wage cuts and. indirect wage cuts through the “stagger system” against the lower paid federal employees. This will also be the signal for another attack on workers in industry. The imperialist government tries; to balance its pudget only, atthe expense. of .the toiling magses. es In order to defend the Soviet Union you must defend it also against. the propaganda attacks of -| the capitalists.

WICKS. NE of the chief character- istics of military officers \of imperialist forces imposing their tyranny upon colonial and semi-colonial peoples is their excesses of depravity. This is equally true of the fe- male members of such families. Bourgeois society, as a whole, revels in every form of de- bauchery and, as Marx and En- gels observed in the Commu- nist Manifesto’: the nabobs of the capitalist ruling class “take the greatest delight in seduc- ing each others’ wives.” There is no more colossal hypocricy than the pretense of capitalist America to be con- cerned about the “protection of womanhood”—-white or colored. Daughters of workers are regarded as throughout the world have; since the legitimate prey by the gentlemen of the ruling class. -Colonial - peoples first conquest by Europeans, been forced by military might -to see their daughters subjected-to the most at- rocious and revolting sex crimes at} the hands of their conquerors, The Spanish in South America, the -Eng- lish in India, Egypt, the Sudan, in South Africa; the French in Morocco, in other African colonies, in Indo~ China, ‘in Tahiti; the, Belgians on the Congo, the Americans in Hawaii, the Philippines, Cuba, Haiti, Santo-Do- mingo—all, alike, have committed the most monstrous excesses against the .wives and daughters. of the -vie~ , tims ef the rapacity of their. imper- ialist masters. 4 The invading armed forces and the puppet rulers, usually called govern- ors, live in idleness for long periods of time. They are busy only when they are called upon to crush some rising or some movement which they fear may lead to a rising, or when they have a job of strike-breaking on hand. Aside from a minimum of military routine in “normal times” these elements devote their time to. what they regard as pleasure seck- ing. Orgies of drinking and sex de- bauchery consume much of their time. In these performances the ladies of the army and navy officers play a conspicuous part, Not infrequently the ladies try a little experimenting of their own— sometimes their partners are other women’s husbands, sometimes they get @ thrill in the arms of a young native whose virility makes ridicu- laws, by comparison, the feeble reac-. ‘tions of their jaded and rum-soaked husbands who no longer.szespand:to }« their charms. The gorgeous ladies of the slave oyning aristocracy of the South, and their modern descendants who are wives of the present lynch rulers, long ago learned that it is vastly mode safe to philander with a Negro youth or young man who dare not talk about it, than to bestow [What Our Readers Say on the Election Campaign Each Communist An Organizer in Election Campaign Dear Conirade:— As a student *deeply mterested in| the erewih of the Communist moye- | xaene, I am grateful for the oppor- | tunity given*to me to offer some| Suggestions i conducting the com-| ling presidential campaign I hope Whey may be ®f some use. 1, Leading * Communist, in the} Party press, at “leetures, at demon- jstrations, etc., should never neglect | to urge each reader or listener to become an indivtdudt nucleus in the election campaign: It is not enough | for Communists 6¥°near Communists | ‘to support the péas,. attend demon- | ‘strations and part{cijiate in organi-| zational work, although all of this is important. “*Eath Communist should become the eéhter of revolu- tionary propaganda, in his neigh- borhood, in his shop or school, among his relatives, friends, etc. How many Communists do all these things all year round, but,.a month before election, suddenly, become passive. Let eache of us,equip ourselves with the real Communist spirit and carry ‘our propaganda wherever we may be, unceasingly and without vacations. 2, The Party press and local Communists should popularize, not only the broad issues in the election, out the names and working class loyalty of the mational and local candidates. The, nominees in local elections should show their face to Ithe workers in. theix district and be active in the campaign. Too often the job is left to,.1undeveloped com- ides, while the mare.capable speak- ers take a rest. Jn, this connection I believe the Party should throw its je strength: in, having the lead- ing Party s peakers’ campaign ‘throughought the..country. In New ‘York City especially not a signle working class neighborhood must. be neglected, else the door is left open for clever demagogyps of the social- fst, democratic and; republican par- ties to confnse ,the«masses, 3.

They always keep the name where it can be cleary seen by people at the meeting or passing by. Also, the Party press and Party speakers . should make absolutely clear to every worker exactly where the Communist candidates are placed on the ballot. Literally thousands of votes were lost last year because uncritical workers did not imme- diately know where the Party candi- dates were. Some voted socialist, some worked out. This must not happen again. 4. The. Party should get into ace tion much sooner than it did .last. year. Registration week must be utilized to get every discontented worker to register and not take the defeatest attitude that his vote means nothing. Just what his vote means in regard to the Soviet Un- ion, imperialist war, capitalist, un- employment insurance, Tom Mooney, pressure upon capitalist politicians, etc., should be explained to him. Each Communist should check up on his friends to see that they register, especially wotkers who are gradually tending towards the Communist point of view on important issues, 5.

They should support their older com- rades, but not take the lead without advice from the older comrades, Lately, those comrades who are unemployed should not “wait for nightfall to hold meetings, Unem- ployed workers walk the streets dur- ing the daytime. Why not reach them ‘with our programat this time, when the fact that they afe unem- ployed stares them most sharply in the face, Another shortcoming last year the ‘tendency of some com- rades to slacken their task as soon as the socialists, democrats and re- publicans began to get busy, This must not happen again. I have spoken directly because it is mechanical Points like these which cut down sol argely on the Com- munist vote. Our taks must be to bring ‘our voting strength more nearly on a level with our wide so- cial influence. Especially during pre-election days must the slogan be: “Every comrade on the job, no slackening until the leection is over.” Comradely yours, (American Youth) (Brownsyille) their favors upon drunken specimen of their own “set” who may blab about it in some speakeasy. If the unfortunate Negro, who may have been intimidated into the alliance is caught the elegant lady and her fam- ily immediately raise the cry of “rape,” and the lynch gang gets into action. (This writer is personally familiar with @ case where a young Negro chauffeur in Tennessee was compelled to leave his job because he would not enter into such an alliance with the wife of his employer), The same conditions prevail in every col- ony on the face of the earth, These observations nave a special bearing upon the Massie case in Hon- olulu. Consider the piece of paper from the doctor’s office handed to Mrs, Massie, the alleged victim of an attack by five Hawaiian young men, when she was on’ the witness stand during the trial. In a violent outburst the lady tore it to bits and threw it on the floor. An act which drew applause from the naval lynch gang that made up the audience as @ part of Darrow’s plan of intim- idating the-jury. What was written on thai piece of paper that the naval officers feared to have revealed? Questioning by the procecutor brought out some of its contents. In the first place it established the fact that Mrs. Massie, imagining she was suffering from nervous disorder, visited some sort of dootor to have herself “psycho-an- alyzed,” In true Freudian fashion the doctor delved into the facts of the lady’s intimate life with her hus- band and discovered that the pair were “incompatible,” that her hus- band “neglected” her, Oother questions revealed- some- thing of the actual occurrences on the night Mrs. Massie and her fam- ily, including her hatchet-faced, lan- tern-jawed hag of a mother, the so- elety matron of Washington, D. ©., Mrs. Granville Fortescue, claimed she was attacked by the Hawaiian young men. Mrs. Massie got @ broken jaw that night. The prosecutor asked the lady whether or not her husband, Lieutenant Massie, did not break her jaw when he discovered her in com- promising-circumstances with another naval officer. Regardless of her de- nial we can draw our own conclu- sions that such were the eircum- stanees under which she obtained the jolt in the jaw. No one denied, or could have de- nied, that the gentlemen and ladies of the navy stagéd a drunken party the night Mrs. Massie’s jaw was broken. The lady in question left the party because she was “bored.” She claimed she was alone when she left the drunken orgy. It is quite in keeping with hes Freudian system of ous, disorders caused by neglectful f nwbeins that the lady, stimulated by booze, should seek to unleash some of her “suppressed de- sires.” But such a story, told ag it actually occurred, would involve too many naval “heroes” and their families. It that bould blow the lid off the navy with a detonation as lour and a stench as foul as that which followed the removal of an admiral from the fleet at San Francisco during the “World's Fair” in 1915 on a charge of abusing young boys who had joined the navy. Not a few admirals (rear and other- wise), Heutenants and lesser officers are addicted to such Sacratic prac- tices, It is not beyond possibility that the memorandum which Mrs. Massie destroyed contained refer- ences to some such traditions of na- val officers. That would, of course, be an added reason why the act was greeted with applause by the rest of the navy gang, who dislike such rev- alations. The vile and lying accusation against the five young Hawaiians, and the lynching of one of them by Massie, his mother-in-law and two enlisted men was concocted to cover ‘up the degenerate conditions existing ‘among the official caste. It fitted in Nicely with the war preparations of Yankee imperialism in the Pacific, inasmuch as it was the signal for the beginning of the campaign to place the islands under martial law. And American imperialism took full ad- vantage of it. Hawaii is regarded as the chief naval and military outpost of the Pacific forces of the United States Tuling class. Every precaution must be taken to guarantee the Islands against disturbances on the part of the Asiatic workers on the sugar and coffee plantations, It was by no means accidental that on January 18th, the Wall Street puppet governor, Judd (who freed the foud lynchers) appointed as warden of Oahu Prison the notorious. Major Gordon Ross, who in 1925 commanded a guard de- tachment sent to the Island of Kauai to break strikes on the plantations there. ‘This strike-breaker can be re- Med upon to make the prison a place of terror for victims of American im- perialist vengeance as a part of the program of suppression carried out ‘against the Hawalian masses, Chargéd with murder, spying for the Kaiser during the war, agent for Harding in the notorious Ohio gang, Department of Justice agent in the Post war Red drive and Fish Com- mittee expert against Communists, Gaston Means is now held on the charge of having muleted a friend of Lindbergh for 106,000 on a promise of returning the kidnapped baby.

The Communist Party organized demon- strations everywhere. The Madrid demonstration re-formed itself five times after repeated police attacks. Eight police were injured and 60 workers arrested. Cordova police fired on the demonstration killing two and wounding eight demonstra- tors. In Seville a two hour fight with police took place with many wounded and arrested.

We are/ asked to believe that the securing, days before the crime was committed, of a piece of canvass and rope, with which the body of the young Ha- weilan was wrapped was not a pert of the murder plot.
