DAIL Page Three Y WORKER, NEW YORK, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1932 International Notes By ROBERT HAMILTON. Communists Beat Labor Party Man in Paisley. PAISLEY, Scotland, Dec. 1 (By Mail).—A by-election was held in this famous Scottish textile town, home of the famous Paisley shawls, Tues- day, November 29th. No Communist had run for office in the Third Ward ever before, but Jack Kenny, Com- munist candidate for alderman at present serving a three months sen- tence in Gateside Jail for leading an unemployment demonstration, polled 20 per cent, of the total vote cast. He beat the official Labor Party candid- ate by 40 votes. ‘The Communist candidate was the organizer of the Unemployed Work- ers’ Movement in Paisley and his fine showing at the polls proves how ef- fective real class-struggle leadership is in gaining the support of the work- ing class. * . “RESCUE FROM HUNGER AND COLD!” BERLIN (By Mail).—The slogan “Rescue from Hunger and Cold” was raised as the keynote of the joint congress of the National Un- employed Committee and the Na- tional United-Front Committee of Anti-Fascist Action, held in Ber- lin November 20th. Resolutions were unanimously adopted, pre- senting demands that the overflow- ing warehouses be opened to the unemployed, and that every jobless worker be .given a free supply of bread, potatoes and coal, A delegation of Socialist workers, representing thousan‘ls of their party comrades, extended warm greetings to the congress and pledged to help form a united front for action against hunger and cold. Amid thundering shouts of “Red Front,” they announced that “the only way out is the fighting united front!” The Communist deputies in the Prussian Diet will present a bill in- corporating these demands at its opening session on November 24th. ® * TROTSKY, KAUTSKY AS COL. LABORATORS OF THE POLICE SOFIA, Bulgaria, Nov. “27. (By Mail)—For the past few weeks a book entitled “Collectization in Soviet Russia,” with the sub-title “Down with Serfdom on Colletcive Farms,” has been circulated throughout Bul- garia. Although it has 100 pages its list price is only 2 cents. The book is supposed to be “a symposium of articles by prominent economists, So- cialists and Communists” and “is primarily intended for our Bul- garian peasants, so many of whom are foolishly falling for Communism.” It has now been disclosed that this anti-Soviet work is a product of the * secret political division of the Bul- | garian police. The police send it FREE to all booksellers, libraries, newspapers, and even private indi- viduals, although it is marked with a/ definite selling price. Among the collaborators adorning: this police production are a White Guard Russian Professor Ivanzev and Karl Kautsky, whose contribution is a reprint of the argricultural section of his notorious “Bolshevism up a Blind Alley,” Of course, Rakovsky and ane represented, Trotsky's article in the French Trotskyist ma- gazine “La Lutte des Classes” being reprinted. In the dnonymous preface the po- lice of the Bulgarian dictatorship recomends Kautsky as “the most prominent theoretician of Socialism, the old, experienced interpreter of Marxism.” Trotsky and Rakovsky are praised as “the most prominent and active representatives of Commmu~- nism, who—after having led the Rus- sian Revolution and helped for years in the establishment of the Soviet Wtate—mow are out of favor and exiled.” The Bulgarian workers and pea- wants have realized the meaning of Wais united front of Trotsky-Kautsky- Girginoff (the latter the Bulgarian police minister). The workers’ press thas branded this police production publicly. Only the organ of the Bul- arian Trotskyists, “Osyoboshdenyie,” (loesn’t consider it necessary to say tnything about the book, thus tacitly t ppreving it.

MASS ARRESTS | IN ARGENTINE Government in Drive) for War | BUENOS AIRES, Dec, 1°.—Troops and tanks bristling with b-“cnets and machine guns continued to ;at- rol the working class districts of this | Argentine city today. Mass arrests and raids on revolutionary working class organizations are being carried out on an extensive scale, All theates were closed down today and the footbadl games cancelled as part of the government's ban on) public meetings. Private radio sta- | tions have been ordered closed “for | thirty days. All constitutional guar- | antees have been suspended. The Communist press has been suppres- sed. Hundreds of working class leaders have been arrested . Pian Crushing Farm Move. President Augustin P. Justo is re- ported considering extension of the martial law edict to the privinces Where"100,000 farmers are mobilizing | for a march on the capital to de- mand relief.

The present bloody terror is intended ty pacify the hinterland, to drawn in blood the anti-war sentiments of the toil- ing masses and their struggles for relief. Terror Against Workers. The bourgeois press is engaged in a vicious terror-incitement against the working class and its revolution- ary organizations, declaring that the radical workers intended to sack the city under an agreement with the followers of the former president | Hipolito Irigoyen who, the bourgeois | press alleges were “to have turned over the city to the Communists for 48 hours,” The government is feed- | ing this incitement campaign with forged documents which it claims to have captured in the raids of the past three days. FARM DELEGATES USE MINERS’ HALL Despite Snow, Portage | Gives Them a Meeting PORTAGE, Pa. Dec. 19.—The truck with 25 farmer delegates re- turning to Minnesota from the Na~ tional Farm Relief Conference in Washington, got here Dec. 14 in the midst of the worst snow storm in years. The Miners Hall at Spring- ator Reklapoed for them by the ere, supper was given them, eooked by miners’ wives with food collected by the workers, mostly from farmers. workers from meeting was held at which four of the delegates spoke.

They were not obstructing traffic or interfering with anyone, just trying Along comes a cop, a servant of Tammany’s corrupt administration, and drove away these peaceful work- ers in the manner of a real cossack. The new mayor has not taken of- fice yet, but his policy of driving all radicals from Union Square is being | carried on by the present adminis- | tration. One worker said: This is real dem- ocracy of capitalism, the country is. going to the dogs. ‘But the working class will not let the country go to the dogs that way; they will build this country for the workers and by the workers. The workers are learn- ing better every day who is their real friend and who is their enemy. iM. Clinton, Ind.

The chief of police, Pete Helms, le his threats that he was going drive the Reds out of town. We, the workers, intend to organize and fight for the right to live. W.A.B. DAILY SALES GO ON IN CALIF.

FR, Shanties But Workers Fight and Save Them) | NEW YORK CITY.—Sixteen home- less workers were recently arrested and brought before night court when police swooped down upon the shanty-town they had erected in the Park. The judge, tool of the wealthy residents of Fifth Ave. and Central Park West, whose “finer senses” were offended - by the existence of this Hooverville under their very noses, ordered immediate evacuation of the shacks, Immediately upon hearing the de- cision, a Meeting of the more than 50 residents of the colony elected a protest delegation to: demand from Mayor McKee the right to remain in their “homes.” Fearing the prob- able results of a linking up of the struggle of these workers with the general struggles of the Unemployed Councils of this territory, Mayor Mc- Kee gave in to their demands on condition that they keep the Reds out, keep their mouths shut and agree to get out on May 1, 1933. Although considerably confused as to the aims of Communists, and hesi- tant about linking up their struggle with the Unemployed Councils, ow- ing to the threat of eviction hanging over their heads, the militancy of the workers living in these miserable hovels is unmistakable, and many a war monger and exploiter, not ex- cluding the “Great Engineer,” would squirm in their seats if they heard the “promises” of these workers, in the event that they are again forced to shoulder a gun to “save democ- racy.” Worcor, Terrorists and Police Attack Richmond Un- employed Council Hall * RICHMOND, Ind.—For the first time the police actually broke up a meeting. As workers gathered to ‘rrange a protest against a relief cut of from 20 to 35 per cent, two cruis- ing cars of cops came to the Work- ers’ Center, ordered everyone out and filled the hall with tear gas. Sev- eral of the workers are prepared to identify the police in this group. ‘Two days before that someone stole all the-light bulbe from the hall, eut off some of the sockets and probably thought they had made at least one meeting impossible. When this failed, the cops came in and finished it. Of course, the workers will not be discouraged by this action, as the cuts have been serious enough to show even the Labor Association rank and file that the Unemployed Council wes right when they prophe- cied that the relief would be cut Marry Reeves pretends to fear bloodshed, as it seems as though the police ef Richmond are trying their best to give it-to him. The Unem- ployed Council, however, is pointing out to the workers that the best way to meet the police lawlessness is by mass demonstrations, When the police break the law, as the Rich- mend police have done several times in the past months, the best bet for the workers is: let them feel the or- ganized mass of workers.

Districts in Manchuria Organize Red Army to Fight Japanese In-| vaders, ‘Manchukuo,’ Kuomintang Betarayers Peasant Partisan Troops Aid National Revo-| lutionary Struggle Throughout Region (Chinese Workers Press Correspondence.) Since the beginning on September 18, 1931, of the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, the workers and peasants of Manchuria disgusted with the | “non-resisting” policy of Chang Hsio Liang and the Nanking Government Jopened up in have armed themselves, Direct armed struggle with Japanese imperialism was begun. Everywhere in Manchuria there are to be found partisan de- | tachments (volunteers). The move- ment began in south Manchuria and later spread throughout the whole Manchuria, Concerning the heroic deeds of | these volunteers, no description is| adequate. At the present the posi- | tion of Soviet distritts as shown in| the accompanying map gives an idea | of the tent of the anti-imper-| ialist struggle in Manchuria, Soldiers Against High Command. The attitude of the masses to the | Kuomintang lackey generals, such as Ting Chao, Li Tu, Ma Chen-Shan, Su Pin wen is clear. The soldiers of the anti-Japanese anti-Manchuko aymies under the Kuomintang flag | refuse to obey orders of the high command, Of their own accord they join with the armed peasant detach- ments, the “Big Swords”, the “Red Spears”, and engage [in the war against the Japanese army. The su~- perior officers of the Nanking army under the circumstances are forced to appear to side with the soldiers in the war, for otherwise the soldiers would put them out of the way. It is interesting to note that Ting Chao, the Kuomintang general is secretly sending his representative to the Japanese command to negotiate @ compromise, He had to do this in secret, because if the soldiers learn about it, Ting Chao would be no more. Again we have thé so-called na- tional hero, Ma Chen Shan, who had at one time capitulated to the ene. my. After he went to Chang Chun for the inauguration of “Manchukuo”, his soldiers at Heiho confiscated his property there and imprisoned his wife. They warned him the troops under him would rebel. At the same time the Japanese deprived Ma of | the chairmanship of Heilungking Provinee, the seat of Ma's power. Ma “disappeared” from Changchun. And he again became the “National Hero”. But the people of Manchuria (except the officialdom of “Manchukuo”) re- gard him with contempt and ridi- cule. Su Pin-wen Also Reactionary. What kind of an affair is the re- cent coup of Su Pin-wen? In the past Su was an official of “Manchu- kuo”, He had to fight the Japanese | and “Manchukuo”, because “Man. | chukue” demoted him, and because his soldiers forced him to, by mak- ing the Japanese residents in Heil- | ungkiang prisoners. Like Ma Chen} Shen, Su too sent “emissaries” to the _— °. . . Spread Along Railroads. Volunteers, worker red partisans, and the Manchurian Red Army spread along the railroads and near- by regions, In East Manchuria along the Tunhwa-Kirin railway is a red army of 30,000 under Wang Teh Lin (this army is composed of Chi- nese and Koreans—now reported to number 170,000—Translator). This army is operating in an area em- bracing Tunhwa, Hunchun, Yenki, Tungning, Ninguta, Wangchang, Omu, and firmly established Soviet Dstricts in many counties. | From Harbin to Changchun on the | Chinese Eastern, the volunteers un- | der Po Be.Sheng, Li Polan, Kow- Feng-Ming (leaders of the “red spears” and the “big swords”) are | very active, They occupied Wuchang, i, Sinching, Shulan, | to Suifenso and along the Sungari to the East, this & sponded to the struggle influenced by the anti-imperialist spirit of the Manchurian people. In the east all} the important cities on the Tunhwa. Kirin, Chinese Eastern railroads had been captured and changed hands | many times. Many of the “Man- chukuo” official were executed. Properties of these officials and banks were confiscated. Land and} food stocks of these localities were taken and distributed among the poor. “Manchnkuo” troops and part of the Japanese army in this region were disarmed. The tactics of these volunteers undoubtedly are adopted from the Red Army. In spite of the | abundance of munition and modern | equipment such as airplanes and big cannon and tanks of the Japanese army, the volunteers are able to make the advance of their enemy very dif- ficult. Trains running from Harbin and Vladivostok have not been in oper- ation for the last half year. Rec- ently the train from Harbin and Manchukuo almost entirely ceased operation. Therefore, the intended attack on the Soviet Union could not be materialized easily, because the advance guard of the inter- ventionist troops cannot establish a firm base in North Manchuria, Even Harbin itself is not safe from attack by the volunteers. Only rec- ently 30,000 volunteers surrounded the city. It took 30,000 Japanese troops with barb wires etc. to de- fend the city. And Changchun | and Kirin are threatened and in danger of falling into the hands of the volunteers. The Japanese com. mand could do nothing but guard railroad lines. The first line of defense of the Japanese is along | Anta, Yelan, Ashibo and Kirin. From this, we can see the limit of the territory under control of “Man- | chukuo”. Up to the time of writing, the volunteers in north and east Manchuria numbered 300,000. All trains between Harbin-Changchun, [little clothes, ete. with preparations for a s confer.
