THE STORY SO FAR: A Coromunist Party unit in the proletarian Wedding section of Berlin holds a meeting in the Red Nightingale cafe to discuss preparations for the 1929 May Day demonstration, which has been banned by the Socialist police chief, Zoergiebel, Hermann, the political leader of the unit, introduces a representative of the district, T'who delivers the main talk. ee « “N THIS connection we must see what role the Trade Union leaders are playing today in the camp of the ememies of the working class. After | the International Workers’ Congress | t in Paris in 1889 had decided to cele- brate tt st of May as the fighting day of the working class, the Berlin trade unions were the first to start active propaganda for the celebration of May Day in 1890. Towards the end | of March anifesto signed by the proud of their success, especially in he big factories, The 8. P.

Roosevelt's Twin? The President of the United States is elected to office on the strength of his “promises” to the people. As a result of an automobile accident barracks while speeding ninety miles an hou: to Annapolis, he suffers a concussion of the brain. When he regains con- sciousness, the “divine spirit” of the Angel Gabris! has managed to slip into his body in order to provide him vith sufficient “spiritual” power to weld the forces of the nation together and thereby pave the way for the re- turn of prosperity. Vhat happens from now on is pro- phetic in more than one way of what the American masses may expect from the present Roosevelt adminis- tration, unless they do something about it.

Under the i!- lusion that he is George Washington, he proceeds to disperse his cabinet, dissolves Congress and declares the country under martial law, all out of sheer love of the people. He issues an order for the militar- ization of the unemployed in Army under federal control. (Roosevelt's plan also).
