Frank Gida and Mike Comas | were arrested and severely beaten up. Many hundreds of workers, aroused by the intensified preparations for war against the Soviet Union and by the recent deportation of Ferras and Elspinoza, filled the hall to capac- ity. But as soon as Frank Gida, or- ganizer of the Young Communist League, was through speaking, he was seized by an officer on order by chief of police Logan and taken to jail. Mike Comas was also seized, taken 6 miles away and beaten across the back with a black jack by masked men, From jail, where he was likewise beaten up, Frank Gida was released |into the hands of about 18 masked men, among whom were sheriff Joughin and Police Chief Logan. They rode him out of town, forced him to kiss the American flag and left him with eyes blackened, fingers twisted and several teeth knocked out. With each blow delivered, they asked Frank Gida the address of H. Gordon, Communist organizer whom they threatened to hang on sight. But as Gida refused to answer he was beaten up into insensibility. Gordon was present at the meeting but the cops were already outside when they were told he had not left the hall as yet. They surounded the hall, the entrance to which was closed from the inside, and did not dare to break in because they knew there would be no peaceful submis- sion,- Frank Gida was told never to re- turn to town: “Go back to New York’”—he was told—’and tell your comrades that this is our method of dealing with anybody attempting to cause trouble.” T.

The dispateh makes the sinister threat that “the belief here is that foreign naval forces now at Amoy can handle any trouble.” These forces include American, Japanese and British warships engaged in direct armed intervention against the revolution- ary struggle of the teiling Chinese masses. A Hankow dispatch reports that Chinese Red Army forces were oper- ating within ten miles ef that city. the course of the fight last year. ‘The Wall Street government yes- terday issued fresh orders to its Nan- king butchers ta send troops agatnst the armed forces of the revolutionary Chinese workers and peasants in An- hwei Province, A Nanking force of 7,000 which invaded Anhwei Province about ten days ago has been surrounded and cut off by the Chines Red Army. Bourgeois press ditpatches from Nanking admit that most of this force has joined the revolutionary army. The same dispatches re- port that the Nanking government is finding it increasingly difficult to induce its troop to fight against the Chinese Red Army. Nanking aviators are reported to have bluntly refused to carry out or- ders to bomb the Red Army and the revolutionary masses in the stewing Soviet district in Anhwei provinee, The Anhwei"Red forces have sur- rounded the important city of Peng- pu, and are moving-to cut the Tient- sin-Pukow Railway south of the city Chinese Red Armies in Big Provinces; Cut off Nanking Troops in Annwei Kuomintang T roops ‘Desert to Revolutionary Forces, Nanking Aviators Refuse to Carry Out Orders to Bomb Masses in Soviet Districts to black any attempt of the Nan-| king butchers to send fresh forces | into the besieged city. Chinese Red Army forces are also} winning victories in Honan: Province. Honan Province borders Anwhei on | the west. A powerful Soviet district has existed for several years on the Anhwei-Honan-Hupeh borders. Red Army forces from this district are also operating in the vicinity of Han- kew, the principal city of Hupeh Province and one of the most im-; portant industrial and strategic cit-| jes of Central China. Anhwei i on the northern borders of Kiangsi Province, in which the city of Nan- king is situated. Bourgeois dis- patches admit that the growing pow- er of the Anhwei-Honan-Hupeh So- viet district is threatening the very existence of the traitorous Nanking government of the Chinese bankers and landowners and their imperial- ist masters, In Fukien Province, the Chinese Red Army is still carrying on a vic- torious advance toward the borders of Kwangtung Province in khich the Canton wing of the Kuomintang traitors have their stronghold. Chin- ese and foreign merchants at Amoy, Fukien seaport 35 miles from the city of Chang-chau which is in the pos- session of the revolutionary army, have raised a fund of $200,000 to fin- ance the Canton clique in its Com- munist “suppression” campaign. The Canton navy, which is in re- volt against the Nanking govern- ment, has seized the island of Hain- an, off the coast of Kwangtung prov- ince. They have dismissed all magis- trates and seized the funds of the central bank. The revolt so far is merely an expression of the internal conflicts between the Kuomintang betaryers of China. These conflicts are in turn an expression of the dif- ferences between the various imper- ialist masters of the two groups. JERSEY CITY, N. J., May 19,— The whole day shift of 350 men in the Crucible Steel plant here is on strike, and the night shift ts ex- pected to join the struggle, The Strike is against a 15 per cent wage cut, the fourth cut within a year. ‘The plant’ was working four days a week, with a stagger system by which the men all lost one week out of every month. ‘The first cutl ast year was from ten hours te eight, with proportional reductions in pay. The second cut was October, 1931, ranging from 10 to 25 per cent, The third cub was Feb, 1, 1932, ranging from 10 per cent to fifteen per cent, On May 16 a cut of fifteen per cent was started; the bosses going the first day to men in one department and announcing it, the next day to men in another department and announcing it there, ete. Wednesday 25 men walked out. ‘This morning 50 more walked out. At 12:30, when work was to start after lunch, the whole day shift struck, The strikers have a rank and file committee for leadership.

Mahon Saves Company Huge Sum for Sake of “Co-operation” BOSTON, Mass, May 17.—To their long history of labor betrayal, the American Federation of Labor bu- reaucracy today added another chap- ter by forcing a wage-cut upon the 4,800 workers in the Boston Carmen's Union, When the “voluntary” cut together with demands for the lowering of conditions was first proposed by the company @ month ago, the Carmen refused every demand. They held fast to this position until a week ago when International President’ Mahon of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Em- ployes was called in to do the hosses dirty work. He accomplished this in short-order, only a week, For helping the company put over the cut, Mahon received public ac-~ élaim. In the statement given out by the company today the following is noted: “We wish publicly fo com- mend the employes of the Boston Carmen’s union and their offi- cers . . .” And further: “The wage reduction already in effect. and the present settlement will result in a saving of $1,100,000 (for the company),” ‘The cut amounts to six and a half cents an hour, from 75c to 68 1-20. ‘Without even demagogic statements that it will “spread the work” or “assist unemployed carmen,” the El company quite openly and frankly admits that this cut will mean a saving of $800,000 for it. Benjamin to Speak On Unemployment in Cleveland, June 4th CLEVELAND, O.—Herbert Benja- min, national secretary of the Un- employed Councils of America, will speak in Cleveland on Saturday, June 4, on the struggle for unemployment insurance, Benjamin is well-known in Cleveland for his working class ac- tivities here, and he was one of the % JAPAN SOCIALISTS BACK FASCIST ACT FOR WAR ON USSR Support “Move for Brutal Fascist Dictatorship The Japanese fascist drive for im-| mediate war against the Soviet Un-| ion and increased terror against the Japanese toiling masses is openly supported by the Japanese socialists Even the bourgeois press which cus- tomarily helps the socialists in con- cealing their betrayals of the work- ing class is forced to admit this. In an editorial headed “The Sumurai- Socialist Alliance,” the New York Herald Tribune yesterday admitted that the fascist movement derives its greatest strength from the support of the socialists who are still able to| deceive large sections of the Japan-| ese proletariat, The editorial states, | in part: “When the army and navy leaders | meet to demand that the upshot of | this crisis be the final eclipse of party politics in a super-party Cab- inet, they are not speaking for the new ‘fascist’ recruits to their cause.

The Japanese who shares with the military and the aristocrats their re- sentment against the control of cor- rupt parliamentary politics by a bourgeois oligarchy can see in their reactionary program a long step backward, if he likes, toward Asiatic patriarchism, But, if it suits him beter, he also can seen in it a long step toward the evolution of a so- cialist state.” “It is this close co-operation of the socialists withe militarists in their ‘super-party’ plans which gives the ‘purification’ movement such stability and importance FORCE PERMIT IN YOUNGSTOWN FOR, NATL YOUTH DAY Compel Steel Bosses to _Revoke Former Decision YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio. — The young workers in Youngstown scored a smashing victory over ‘the agents of the steel trust by compel- ling them to permit the Second Na- tional Youth Day demonstration on | Mey 30th.

The belief that Japan is on the verge of attacking the Soviet Union is openlyexpressed by all classes, he reports, with the exception of British official circles. He openly hints that British official circles are supporting the Jap- anese militarists in their drive for war against the Soviet Union and are attempting to hide the sinister significance of the Japanese war moves. In a dispatch yesterday to his paper, he reports? ; “The liberals and radicals are most outspoken in the be- lief that this war, if not inevitable, is at least almost so.
