Gorguloff acted for the purpose of precipitating war against the Soviet Union in the hope of destroying it. Gorgulof’s action was the classic example—the prototype of modern political assassination. And what did the French police do when Gorgu- loff murdered the President of the French Republic last year? The first press announcements truthfully declared that Gorguloff was a monar- chist and white guard enemy of the Bolshevik Party and the Soviet Re- | public. But then came a flood of the wildest declarations that Gorguloft was “discovered” to be a Communist and a “Soviet agent.” Of course, | all ‘of this stuff’ was false, and was an effort of the ruling class to turn | its own crimes against the working class and the revolutionary labor movement. Only the most vigorous and intelligent exposure prevented a wholesale outbreak of police violence against the Communist Party and the revolutionary trade unions on the basis of the lie that Gorguloff, the capitalist agent, was a “Bolshevik.” aie. w New York Times of yesterday said: “Zangara was a registered republican, but was known for radical | utterances and had very few friends, according to Frank Vianni, he | conducts a grecery store and rooming house at the Green Street ad- dress. He owned an automobile, however, and was never in particularly straitenec “cumstances.” But anouw:cr press story, in the New York Evening Post yesterday, | attempts to establish Zangara as “a member of a recognized anarchist sroup, Making its headquarters in Paterson, N. J.” and declares that “vir- tually all of the activity” of the police and secret service “was pushed in that direction.” Why attack anarchists for an attempted assassination when the ac- cused man is.a republican? The Communist Party has not the slightest toleration for false an- archist theories, some ot which include individualistic ideas of a “rev lutionary” quality in acts of individual terror. While firmly and unquali- fiedly condemning such theories anc while strongly warning the working class against such ideas, the Communist Party nevertheless will combat any effort to utilize this occasion for attacks by the police against even most confused and mistaken groups of workers whose very confusion itgelf-is the result of their victimization by the misery and darkness of the capitalist system. 2 ‘The Communist Party calls upon the working class to reject all such sonfused ideas. * * * T the same time we call upon the working masses to take note of the attempts of the capitalist press and police to make use of this incident to justify police violence and to increase the introduction of fascism into the sphere of the government in this country. There is no doubt that the“whole of the Federal Governnient through the Secret Service, and ali of.the police departments will attempt to alienate public opinion from the-working class demand for Unemployment Insurance, and will attempt jp increase their terrorization against all workers who resist the present flood of wage cuts and mass dismissals In the factories and work shops. ‘The economic crisis is growing worse every day. Close to 17.000,000 workers are unemployed. Many millions of laboring farmers are literally starving on the farm or being evicted from the land. As many as 100 workers have frozen to death in one day in the recent cold spell through the savage greed of the cavitalist class which refuses to guarantee the necessary unemployment relief. ‘The Communist Party proceeds with ifs business of rallying the masses to this struggle, determined to get results. The new president- elect has made many promises in regard to unemployment relief and re- lief for the working farmers. The suffering masses of the American people do not intend that these life and death needs shall be over-ridden on any pretext whatsoever. pee ° March 4, in every city and industrial and farming center in the Uni- ' ted States the masses of workers and toilers will demonstrate their determination that the promises of the new administration be kept. No terrorization of the workers and farmers will be surrendered to. On with the struggle for unemployment relief and social insurance! On with the struggle for Farm Relief! On with the struggle for the life and death needs of the starving American people!
