In his interview to the press Matsuoko said “Japan is serving the cause of peace. We are no longer on the same road as the League of Nations, but our goal is the same. We are also serving the cause of human- ity.” With the cynicism typical of im-| perialism throughout the world Mat- suoko says that Ja drenching th a with the blood of whole populations was for the benefit of the people of that land Describing puppet government set up by anese boyonets, Mat- suoko says “The people of Manchuria—Man- chus, Mongols and Chinese — are mow enjoying such good govern- ment as they have never known be- fore.” Indeed the goal of Japanese im- the same, in the broad t of all impe ist ‘me us, the oldest city the world and the capitol of the League of Nations mandated country, Syria.

In reply to Wellington Koo, the Chinese Spokesman at the League, Matsuoko, for the Japanese delegation rejected the proposal for international control over Manchuria and asked: “What justification is there for such an attempt? Would America agtee to such control over the | Panama Canal sone? Would | Britain permit it over Egypt?’ This K Ally in Europe shown that America of the same Japanese i perialism. He openly declares that elations might be improved if the United States fleet were withdrawn from the Pacific. He says Japan’s position is stronger morally “even than that of the United States in the Caribbean under the Monroe Doc- trine. He rejects the 9-power treaty signed at Washington on the grounds that it is based upon the fiction that China is a unified nation. In his every utterance he shows clearly the increased determination of n challenge merican imperialist ag gression in the Pacific.

Matsuoko, his hands dripping with ting a government that openly of the inevitability of a war United States for control es an alternative at is to try to the sharpening imperialist ns at the expense of the Union. He asks American imperialisis to comparatively small country “with frontiers contiguous to the two larg- est countries in the world, both of which have been going through the throes of terrible revolutions for a number of years.” This is a direct appeal for support of Japan as the spear-head against the Soviet Union and against the Chinese people. It is an echo of what Matsuoko said when he left the League of Nations on February 24: “With armies of Communists ranging over a wider territory than the Nanking government controls, @ condition of chaos reigns throughout the country. Beside China and beside another vast country—I refer to Soviet Rus- sia — is Japan, a comparatively stnall country, very different from either of its colossal neighbors. The conditions of these neighbors dur- ing the past 20 years have given us Japanese a deep and anxious concern. Our anxiety is not ended. We look into the gloom of the fu- ture and can see no certain gleam of light before us.” Pa: Indeed the future is gloomy for the imperialist bandits whose policy is being increasingly challenged by the growing revolutionary upsurge of toiling masses at home and in colonial world. It is gloomy when y look across the Soviet borders see the mighty achievements of socialist construction and the iron determination of the Soviet masses to defend their achievements. The implacable struggle of the toil- ing masses of Japan, under the lead- ership of the Japanese Communist akes the picture, through the spectacles of Matsuoko, joomy. Here in the United States the Am- erican workers and our Party can earn many lessons in effective strug- inst imperialist war from our apanese comrades on how effectively to fight against the Wall Street bandit power. By waging the strug- gle against our own ruling class we ip to bring about an atmos- n which there can be no gleam for imperialism. impel WAR IN MOROCCO Secret, Undeclared At- tack on Tribesmen PARIS, Mar. 26.—The French For- eign Legion is waging a secret, un- red War under the official title “pacification” against tribesmen fighting for their independence in Morocco. A battle some days ago in the Djebel Sorro mountains, news of which was suppressed by the French War Ministry, cost the French 178 dead. One company was entirely wiped out.

Monopoly capital and the Junkers, acting thru | the Hitler cabinet, seeks to prevent what cannot be prevented—the worl ing class revolution. In order to e: tend its base in the middle classes, the Nazis play upon the worst na- tional and racial prejudices. They have gone back to the middle ages for their ideas. The Jew is the con- venient scapegoat. “Our hatred for the Jew,” says Hit- ler’s official organ Der Angriff, no passing fancy but rather the logi- cal consequence of our love for the German people. The Jews brought international capitalism, which reck- lessly threw the chains of slavery around Germany; and they also brought Marxism. Germans have a gigantic fight against Marxism, and especially against Communism, the spiritual crime of one Jew (Karl Marx).” The Truth Is Out These words tell the story. “Ger- mans” (i. e. the Nazis) have “a gi- gantic fight against Communism,” but obviously not against capitalism. The Jews are supposed to have brought international capitalism (what history!), but the Nazis have | nothing against the leading capital- | ists, the Hugenbergs and the Junkers. The workers must protest against the persecution of Jews as against persecution of all oppressed races, but they must remember that the chief victims of the fascist terror conducted by German capitalists are German and Jewish workers. They must do Jewish capitalists who are “protest- ing” the outrages against their co- religionists will not raise a finger against fascism as such. They will not say a word about the murder of | revolutionary workers, German or Jewish. They will not attack Hitler- ism as the mailed fist of capitalism. A Rotting System. ‘Yet tt must be clear to every work- er that violence, barbarism, anti-sem- itism are inevitable under a rotting system of force and fraud which is desperately trying to stave off the so- clal revolution, The Nazi-Nationalist terror reveals once more that capitalism thrives on racial hatred. In Germany it incites to Jewish pogroms; in the United States it lynches the Negro. The profit system rends society into an- tagonistic social classes. The profit- eers divide and conquer. They con- ceal the war of class against class, Only one country in the world has succeeded in eliminating racial hat- red, anti-semitism included.

Hitler's hooligans raid the home of Germany’s greatest scientist search- ing for arms! The victims of the ter- ror include the finest names in the history of modern German culture. Lion Feuchtwanger, the noted nov- elist, is in Berne, afraid to return. Nazis invade his home and destroy a manuscript. His crime is twofold: he is a Jew; he has criticized Hitler's literary style. A Cowardly Retreat Yet in describing the terror for the New York Times Mr. Feuchtwanger exonerates Hindenburg, Hitler and Goering. He says “Hindenburg has no idea of the outrages;” probably Hitler, too, “has had nothing to do with these things personally;” and “Minister Goering can scarcely be suspected of complicity.” Wwanger. Hindenburg signed the emer- gency decree! Hitler as chancellor personally ordered his troops over the | radio to “annihilate Marxism!” Goer- | ing officially ordered the police to | kill Communists! Surely, you know | this. But you think your subtle irony, will conciliate the bandits who run the German state. You are mistaken. It will not stop them from their campaign of murder. Your irony only serves to confuse and deceive those who do not yet’ realize that behind the assassins stand the bankers, the industrialists, the land- owners, the generals. By sowing such confusion you lend moral support to the criminals. By “greatly praying” to the fascist government you assist in whitewashing them. A Bloody Gang Not the storm troopers alone are guilty. The blood of the terror vic- tims—Jews, liberals, Communists, so- cial democrats, pacifists, intellectuals -is upon the heads of Hindenburg and Hitler, yon Papen and Hugen- burg, and the entire crew of profit- | cers and exploiters whose agents they are, On March 23, the Reichstag, chosen | by a terror election, passed the “en- | abling act” granting the Hitler cab- | inet dictatorial powers. But it would be a mistake to consider this as a triumph confined to Hitler personally or to the Nazi movement. Big Capitalists Rule Cabinet | Only three men in the fascist cab- inet are Nazis—Hitler, Frick and Goering. ‘The others are Nationalists or personal appointees of Hindenburg. The leaders of the majority are von | Papen and Hugenberg. The cabinet is dominated by the direct represen- | tatives of the Junkers and the indus- | trialists. ‘The Hitlerites are their middle class allies and more specifi- cally the condotierri. The violent war against the working class is the policy not of Hitler alone but of organized capital. - It is no wonder that the executive of the Reichs Federation of Industry, at a meeting on March 23 presided over by Gustav Krupp, unanimously | agreed that the basis for stable gov- ernment has been established by the fascist cabinet. The industrialists promised the “fullest support” to the politicians who represented them, Program of Capitalism ‘The program of German capitalism was announced by Hitler in his ad-~ dress at the opening session of the Reichstag. The central point is ruth- Jess war against Communism, “Trea- son to the nation and the people” (that is, struggle against fascism, against capitalism) will be “stamped | out with ruthless barbarity.” Capi- talism, Hitler declared in so many words, is the “economic servant of the people.” | You must be joking, Mr. Feueht-| The Cultural Barbarism of the Fittler-Hindenburg Regime eral opinions. Writers and artists, | improved conditions for the peasantry and the working class. These prom- ises are pure demagogy. A man can- not serve two masters; Hitier will not be able to reconcile the irreconcilable differences between capital. and labor, between Junkerdom and peas- antry. He will not even try to do so. He has set himself “the positive task of winning over the German work- ers to the National State. The Naris will take over thé social democratic role of effecting class collaboration. That is the meaning of Hitler's con- temptuous shout to the social demo- cratic leader Otto Wels: “We do not need you any longer in molding the fate of the nation.” But the “fate of the nation,” is of little concern to the social democrats. “Take our liberty, take our lives,” Wels said in the Nasi-Nationalist Reichstag addressing his degrading plea to Hitler, “but leave us with honor.” The Social Democrats lost their “honor” when they betrayed the working class. The shameful betray- al cost them liberty and lives, and, what is more important, cost the lives and liberties of the working class. But the working class does not care for some vague idiotic abstraction which Wels calls “honor.” It wants life and liberty; and the. atrocities of the fascist regime will teach it. more and more that life and liberty are impossible under capitalism. No Regard for Workers ‘They can see, evan amidst the pro- tests of Jewish capitalists, of liberal groups that the life of a worker is of less consequence to the capitalists than the life of a dog. They can see in New York that a Jewish worker- soldier has not even the right to par- ticipate in a demonstration agv.inst fascism if he happens to be,e fiy;hter against the capitalist system. ‘There is one point in the Hitler program which should be of special interest to intellectuals, especially those who still harbor the illusion that culture is dissociated from so- cial forces. Hitler has announced s program of “sweeping moral sanita- tion” for which the entire educa- tional system, the theatre, the movies, again inspiration. Reverence for great men. must again be hammered into Ger- man youth.” Naturally, “great men” are exclusively reactionaries—imper- jal generals, big bankers and manu- facturers, Junkers, the chieftains of bloodthirsty fascist gangs, and the ideologues who will spin out, millions of words giving “philosophic” Justifi- cation to the fascist regime. The schools, the movies, the theatre, erature are not to mistake an Ein- stein for a great man. ” that fascism is capitalism in military uniform.

They claim that Comrade Thael-| mann “showed no evidence of hay- ing been hurt,” but was in solitary confinement. Testifies to Tortures. Comrade Werner Hirsch, editor of the “Rote Fahne,” the next pris- oner to be displayed by the police, denied Nazi reports that no one was being mishandled. Hirsch said: “I saw people with bloody eyes and other injuries delivered here from the Nasi Storm Troop Barracks.” Neither Thaelmann nor Hirsch have been allowed to see counsel,| nor have any specific charges been preferred against them. Thaelmann is not being given the prison treat- ment accorded political prisoners, but is herded with common cimin- als. Detective Chief Diehls tried to justify this to the foreign corre- spondents on the ground that “he has been the leader of the party ac- cused of inciting the Reichstag fire.” Continue Lies about Reichstag Fire. This old He, already exploded a thousand times by practically all the capitalist papers of teh world, that the German Communist Party set the Reichstag on fire, is being main- teined to treat Comrade Thaelmann aS ® common criminal. The correspondents were shown Comrade Ernst Torgler, head of the Communist Reichstag depu- ties; Comrade Ludwig Renn, noted author, and Carl von Ossietzky, pacifist editor of the “Weltbuehne.” Jailed When Protested Provocation. Comrade Torgler, it will be remem- bered, had gone to Police Headquar- ters; accompanied by his lawyer, the day after the Reichstag fire to charge the Reichstab builling had been burned as a Nazi provocation against the Communist Party. He was im- Mediately arrested while at Police Headquartets and put into a cell. Gestures to Hide Murders. ‘These demonstrative gestures of Goering’s police are only wntended to mask the undisputed tortures and killings of thousands of * workers throughout the Reich by Nazi storm troopers. Detective Chief Diehis admitted that 5,000 to 6,000 Communists were under arrest throughout Germany. ‘This figure is obviously untrue, since the Nazi press itself reported two wepks ago that 2,500 had been ar- rested in the Rhineland aloie, while over 2,000 were jailed in Berlin. The danger to Comrades Thael- mann and Torgler, as well as to the thousands of arrested Communist and Socialist workers throughout Germany, is by no means past. Only the energetic protest of the workers all over the world have saved them from torture and death so far. Any relaxation of our vigilance will spell imminent danger to our German comrades. We must redouble our demands for the freeing of Thael- mann and the proletarian leaders in jail all over Germany. STRUGGLE AGAINST PROVOCATION Workers’ Enemies Exposed WM, J.

Goering, Prussian | Police Minister, to summon the for- eign correspondents in Berlin, lec | turing them on the theme (as H. R. Knickerbocker puts it) that “the at- Tocities never happened; second, they will be investigated; third, they will never happen again.” Goering admitted that the spear- head of the Nazi attack was aimed at the working. class, saying that Jews that had been fired from office and persecuted “not because they were Jews but because they were so- cialists and Communists.” All Right to Beat Communisis. This is confirmed by the report of the Berlin correspondent of a New York paper, who tells of a Berlin rabbi to whom 2 Christian woman married to a Jew complained that her husband had been beaten by the Nazi troopers Upon learning that the woman's husband was a Communist leader th rabbi washed his hands of the af- fair, “sin he was unable to decide whether the man had been beaten because he was 4 Communist or be- cause he was a Jew”. National German Yews Shield Hitler. The Association of National Ger- Man Jews, in a proclamation to its membership, states that “If Jewish and non-Jewish circles in America and other countries are trying to force the national government to do or desist from doing anything, we, as Germans, resent such coercive en- deavors with the same determination and feeling of national pride as every other German citizen of Gentile igin.’ The Reich Association of Jewish War Veterans sent to the American embassy here a protest against . . . the American protests against anti- Jewish outrages! Referring to the beating and mal- treatment of Jews, the letter de- clares that “such excesses are un- avoidable in any overturn of a gov- ernment.” ‘The Association also says, “We know that the government con- demns the acts of violence that have happened.” outrages have been committed, while the rich German Jews point to their patriotism and absolve Hitler and his fascist aids from complicity in the anti-Jewish atrocities. Why do the German upper-class Jews try to wash the blood stains from the Hitlerites’ hands? Because they themselves have aided Hitler nae reaching chancellorship, as Jakob Goldschmidt’s 150,000 mark e@heck proves. ‘a eke mit seeey ieee: {on Saturday.
