WORKERS UNITE IN COMMON ACTIONS This tendency expresses itself in the uniting of ever greater masses under the leadership of the Com- munists; it expresses itself in many strikes in France, Czecho-Slovakia, Germany, England, Belgium, ete.; it expresses itself in the common ac- tions of social-democratic workers with Communists against the terror of the National Socialists, in the creation of anti-war committees in France and on the platform of the Amsterdam Anti-War Congress. Tt expresses itself in the Spanish Socialist Revolutionary Party join- ing the Communist Party, in the de- cision of a number of groups of the Independent Labor Party in Eng- land to demand adhesion to the Comintern; it expresses itself finally in many social-democratic workers in Germany joining the ranks of the Communist Party.

(By Radio- gram).—Increasuigly violent anti+ Semitic acts by the National Soci- alists, with the forcible closing of The | Jewish stores and injuries to many women and children, are reported from many German towns. In. Berlin, the fascists held dem? ‘4 ‘si onstrations before several shops arc chain stores belonging to Jews, shout- ing in union “Germans Buy Front Germans,” and attempting to pre- vent customers entering the stores, Fascist storm troops, in uniform, in~ vaded some stores shouting, “Kick Out the Jews.” Gas bombs were thrown into one store, terrorizing the customers. Several big stores have been compelled to close. Close Jewish Owned Stores The “Berliner Tageblatt” and other Berlin papers state that the fascist storm troops during the last two days forced the closing of many Jewish- owned stores in various towns in the Rhine and Ruhr provindes. All Jewish stores in Essen have been closed as a result of the anti-Jewish campaign. In Kenigsburg a bomb was thrown in- to the synagogue. In Bochum the fas- cist swastiska flag was raised on a synagogue. In Madgeburg, uniform- ed fascists occupied many Jewish stores, looting their contents. Fas- cist storm troops invading one store fired into the air, causing a panic among women and children and re- sulting in many injuries. According to the Conti Agency, an “eeknown person” attacked the Peru- vian consul in Bremen and beat him so severely it was necessary to send him to the hospital.

Social Rebel Party Joins Communist Party in Spain MADRID, Feb. 22, (By Mail). — The National Congress of the Social Revolutionary Party of Spain took place in Madrid on the 19th, 20th, and 2Ist of February. Prior to the congress a press discussion took place between Balbontin, a deputy and the best known leader of the Spanish so~ cial revolutionaries, and the Commu~ nist Party concerning the ¢haracter of the Spanish revolution and the tasks of the working class. The re- sult. was that Balbontin declared himself in agreement with the stand- point of the Communist Party and declared that he would raise the question at the congress of his party. Sixty-two delegates were present at this congress representing 8,000 mem~ bers. Balbontin addressed the eon- | gress and called for the dissolution of | the party, its members to go over to the Communist Party in # body. A resolution to this effect was adopterl with 38 against 24 votes, STRUGGLE AGAINST PROVOCATION Workers’ Enemies Exposed Colabobo Sylvestro of Brooklyn, YF. Y., employed as a porter at the Gem Razor Blade Co., has been exposed and expelled by the New York dis- trict organization of the Communist Party as a company stool pigeon. Description: About 30 years of age; about 5-ft. 9-in, tall; 7 weighs about 175 pouds; 175 pounds; dark complect- ed; Italian- American born 4 fingers miss- ing on his left hand. Sylvestro came to New York in Mar. | 1932, and gob a job at the Gem Razor factory in Brooklyn. tn this factory the Party and the Young Communist League had @ joint nucleus, to which Sylvestro was attached. A shop group was also organized there, of whieh Sylvestro was 4 member. | Shortly after that, one of the oldest members, who had been working there for over two years, was fired. This was followed by other firings every week, until every Party and Y. ©. L. member and every member of the group was fired out of the factory, except only Sylvestro, whe alone was left working in the factory, Investigation disclosed that Svlv7se tro had been working (in 1931) ag the - Worthington Pump works in Harrison, N. J., and had been stronge ly suspected of giving information to the police. When questioned by the investigation committee, Sylvestre could give no explanation as to why he, in preference to older was the only one of the shop group kept working at the Gem Razor Blade factory; nor could he explain why he had asked for general meets ings of ‘the entire shop group, in- stead of smaller group meetings pro- posed by other members.
