I shall try to discuss them in. this column soon, but with so little space, can’t promise much. Most of the writers defend jazz; the most effective argument, I think, being that it is really a form of Negro music. Elements in jaz are African, I will admit, and nobody would deny that tunes like the St. Louis Blues are really of the folk- quality. But that’s not jaaz; that’s the African nation; and ff there were a Way to separate African art from American commercialism, I’d be glad to say anywhere that I Uked African music, because I greatly do.

Answer to Demand fo ‘USSR Happiest Land in World, Declares | Daughter of Rabbi | Calls Soviets “Hopeful Vision in Confused World” NEW YORK, Sept. 5.—“Far from | any need for contributions to a fam- ine relief fund, such as certain pre- lates in Europe have called for, Rus- sia today has sufficient bread, cheaper and of a better quality than ever be- fore.” So Justine Wise Tulin, daughter of Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, is quoted by the N. Y. World Telegram today, on her return after a two-months tour in the Soviet Union. “The picture of Russia that I re- turn with is the most hopeful, happy vision in a confused world,” she de- clared. “Happy children—a genera- tion for which everything humanly possible is being done—workers in the factories and fields who have lost the sense of tension you observe here; a people who are freed from the ter- ror of economic insecurity.” She said there had been a serious food shortage, but that the travelers returning from Russia crying “fa- mine,” and the Riga correspondents, could be given the lie.

Part of the Wilkinson Laundry workers are on strike and rumors reached the council meeting that scab drivers had been taken into the plant and were going to drive some trucks out of the plant. The meeting was adjourned in short order and the Unemployed Council speakers went to the plant immediately and tried to organize a picket line from the neighbors in order to prevent the trucks leaving the plant. The reformist strike com- mittee leader refused to support the _-tUnemployed Council leaders in their effort and said that the police had assured him that no trucks would leave the plant. Shortly afterwards two of the trucks drove out of the plant under heavy police guard Unemployed Council leaders then jumped up on an empty milk case and opened the meeting.

Other derfands presented were, restoration of flour, -$3 cash weekly for young and single workers and restoration of all who have been cut from the welfare roll. Reno, Secretary, of the Unemployed Councils, was given @ tremendous ovation when he addressed the dem- onstrators from the steps of the wel- fare station, He exposed the’ role of NRA and the city administration and called for a united struggle. The three leaders. of the demonstration are Communist candidates for the city council and they were enthusi- astically endorsed.

Relief Strikers Enter Store and Take $6 in Food LINCOLN, Neb.—After relief strik- ers were told by county officials “work or starve” a committee of 4, whose families were in desperate need entered a Piggly Wiggly gro- cery store here, and with 200 workers behind them, ordered $6 worth of food and told the clerk to charge it to the county. Before the committee entered the store, Jack Hazelrigg, entered alone and phoned Chief of Police Condit. Hazelrigg told him that they. intend- ed getting groceries for men who had been refused relief. There was no trouble encountered in the grocery store. The men just picked up baskets filled them up with food and then told the clerk to charge itto the county. No arrests were made when the riot squad arrived a half hour later. dé This is the answer of the Lincoln unemployed, who have been striking since Aug. 13 against forced labor, to the county relief ruling of “no work, no groceries.” Migratory Workers Speculate on Meaning of Workers’ Red Flag (By a Worker Correspondent) GRAND FORKS, N. D.—Crops in Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, North Dakota, Kansas, are very bad _ all over, especially’ in South Dakota, where an 80 per cent crop failure exists. Even the feed for animals is extremely short. Crops are from 28 to 46 per cent of normal. — Three young mratory workers in search of work wandered into Can- ton, Ohio. They had while in the cities listened to speeches of the “reds” and were frankly skeptical. On the freight train coming into town there had been a discussion on flags and their meaning with a wide differ- ence of opinion. After being chased off the train by bulls way out in the woods, we were walking back. Com- ing to a turn in the rodd- under re- pair, there appeared before their eyes in the semi-darkness a red flag and below a sign, “danger,” which started another discussion, as follows: Harry: ——I wonder why the red@ choose the color of their flag red? Jim:—I dunno. I'll say it’s a good- looking color and all. | The third of the trio, a quiet sort of a fellow said, “Maybe their flag is red because our blood is réd.

Seizure By HARRY GANNES |ANCHURIA'S fertile plains, which were to yield untold wealth to Japanese imperialism are in reality sucking huge streams of gold fram the meagre sources of the Japanése treasury. Watered with the blood of tens of thousands of Chinese peas- ants and insurgents, as well as of Japanese workers and peasants driven into the invading army, Manchuria is breeding greater crises for Japan. Japan is like a famished wolf, driven by hunger to attack a sizeable prey, who finds after stalking his game that he is too weak to eat it. Other wolves creep up on the horizon to snatch the booty away. y It was not a powerful, growing imperialist power that invaded Man~ churia, but a desperate one. Japa- nese imperialism at the time of the Manchurian invasion was deep in crisis, facing revolution. Manchurian invasion was to cure all this at one stroke. But the outcome. is that though the crisis was delayed, the base is laid for its recurrence in a more virulent form e War Costs to Retain. and Hold Man é | Draining Japanese Treasury and Speeding Economic and Financial Smashup "Conference in Geneva in 1927. | The cost of retaining Manchuria, of preparing for the greater war to, hold it, is heavier now than the profit from it can be for the next few decades, Japanese Bosses Worry Great fears are beginning to rack the Japanese bourgeoisie. Only sel- dom can we learn of them, however. So delicately balanced is the whole of Japanese imperialism on the point of a bayonet that the mildest dis- senter usually meets a swift death. But recently a wail or warning came from the top ranks of Japa- nese finance capital: “No matter which way we look, we can see noth- ing but clouds on the economic horizon,” . gloomy prospect comes from the pen of Tetsujiro Shidachi banker and economist connected with the powerful Sumitomo Bank of Tokyo, Shidachi was Japan’s chief delegate to the World Economic The above statement was made very recently in answer to a signifi- of Manchuria Is Intensifying the Economic Cri churia Is| cant question this Japanese states- man asked himself: “Where is Japan going, socially, economically and in- ternationally?” Socially Japan was going towards revolution, he concluded. No matter how long the list of Communists ar- rested, beaten, murdered or sen- tenced to life imprisonment, the ranks of the revolutionary party are growing. “Nor can the government hope to make any real headway against Communism by the mere coercion of a few of its leaders... we might as well start a campaign against an epidemic of typhoid fever by isolating a few patients.” Economic Disaster Economically Japan is rushing to disaster, he reasons, ‘For it is clear,” he writes, “that if Japan continues to pursue her present course of hand- to-mouth finance in utter disregard of pressing problems that are clam- oring for immediate solution, the country cannot escape economic dis- aster with all the consequences that must inevitably follow.” It is a fact that since last year when the news leaked out that whole villages were on the verge of star- vation, with peasants eating the bark off the trees, and selling their daugh- ters to the. geisha houses for a few ‘bowls of rice, the iron-screened Japa- nese censorship was clamped down on this type of news Now Shidachi gives us some more important facts of the general deep- ening of the economic crisis in Japan, * Pe cost of the imperialist war is undermining the foundations of Japan. “The rational budget, with its deficit of more than half a billion dollars, to be met by issuing public * * oninion, ‘especialy wen the bond te opinion, especially when - sues have to be carried by the Bank of Japan, a proceeding which can lead only to inflations and ultimate financial chaos.” Leading Economist Says Japan sis in Japan ‘Is Rushing to Economie Disaster and Proposes Alliance With Chinese Capitalists to Exploit China that of this year, bringing the na- tional debt up to the staggering figure of four billion dollars by the end of next partie gs diffi- cult to comprehend anyone . over such a state ‘oposed this budget tee accepted it as a matter of course, without attempting to re- duce it cred ap sed alcteed thought al increasing ‘- den of similar budgets in year? to come.” ‘ Taxes increase, crushing down War Costs Rising The greatest expenditures are for bet enamels ac pe cl a especially the poor peasants, work- ers and small business men.
