By their latest deeds we can see they are trying to mislead, to canalize the tremendous international upsurge into paths of the most criminal support of imperialist bloody armed intervention against the Aus- trian revolution. The yellow trade union international meets in Paris. With representatives from social-democratic leadership of the unions of France, Belgium and Eng- land, they discuss the question of “support” to the Austrian workers. What do they propose? According to a Paris cable to the New York Herald ‘Tribune yesterday, they are for: “Financial and moral support of Austrian labor, fastening public attention on the situation by means of resolutions, and political action through government channels.” What do they mean by “government channels?” The answer is clearly given by Emile Vandervelde, chairman of the Second International, who simul- taneously proposed that the League of Nations “in- tervene immediately in the struggle between Dollfuss and the Socialists.” ea we see the real worth of their gibbering about “financial and moral” support. They appeal to the imperialist enemies of the working class to take ac- tion against the Austrian workers. Under the guise of mobilizing support for the Austrian workers, these traitors continue their treacherous deeds by helping té imperialists mobilize their armed forces to drown Austrian revolution in a sea of blood. Where does the original proposal for an “inter- Nacional army” for the invasion of Austria come from? It comes from the reactionary French Government, which has already slaughtered workers for fighting against fascism. Emile Vandervelde, lackey of Belgian and French imperialism, uses the Second International as a mobi- Tization instrument for the program of French capital- ism against the Austrian workers, France is opposed to the Anschluss between fascist Germany and Aus- trian fascism. This is the po.'cy of Vandervelde. Their real fear is that the Austrian workers, taking the revolutionary road, will struggle for the actual establishment of Soviet power. The Austrian workers are learning from the lessons of betrayal of the Second International in 1918 and ever since. Hence they appeal for “mobilization” by the League of Nations to drown in an ocean of blood the workers’ revolution in Austria. They call on the Fascist Mus- solini to send his troops in the “army of intervention.” This is not the mobilization of international work- ing class solidarity, but is a maneuver to mobilize for imperialist intervention in Austria, to help the im- Perialists swallow Austria as the first step towards a new bloody imperialist war. aoe counter-reyolutionary service to the imperialists should receive the hatred and bitter contempt of every worker. IN GLARING CONTRAST TO THE TREACH- ERY OF THE LEADERS OF THE SECOND SO- CIALIST INTERNATIONAL STANDS FORTH THE SPLENDID EXAMPLE OF PROLETARIAN SOLI- DARITY THAT IS SURGING THROUGH THE RANKS OF THE WORKING CLASS THROUGH- OUT THE WORLD. “Feeling over the Austrian situation is intense mong the Czechoslovakian working class,’ cables the Associated Press from Prague, as an example of work- ing class resentment and desire for solidarity action which sweeps the world like a prairie fire. It is against this action, based on the solidarity of all workers, regardless of their political affilia- tion, based especially on unity of Socialist and Com- munist workers, that the treacherous scoundrels lead- ing the Second International are maneuvering now with their slimy phrases of “financial and moral sup- port, and political action through government chan- nels.” They know they cannot stop the most tremendous demonstrations and manifestations of support. They want to sidetrack them, render them harmless, and above all strengthen the control of capitalist reaction. In Czechoslovakia the Social-democratic leaders met the workers’ demands for a general mass poli- tical strike as an expression of international soli- Garity, by limiting the strike to 5 minutes. “Government leaders,” said the Associated Press, “hoped that the five-minute strike called by socialist labor unions as @ gesture of sympathy would serve as a safety valve for pent-up emotions.” * He we have the accurate description of the un-- avoidable actions taken by the Socialist leaders. ‘They te gestures, trying to scatter and destroy the tremendous heights of anger against bloody fascist Slaughters and for international solidarity. The “safety-valve” signifies the efforts to keep the Workers from mobilizing in a fight against their own exploiters, against the war moves of their own capital- ist governments, and in support of the Austrian revo- lution. A “safety-valve” for capitalism. That is what the Jeaders of the Second Socialist International are try- ing to set up; and for this reason they work like trojans to prevent the united front of Communist and Socialist workers, We #ppeal to the Socialist workers, who are stirred to the very depths by hatred of fascism and for the necessity for action against it.

The American capitalists are | mow absorbing the Austrian events, as Mr. Brishane | shows, for further drastic steps against the American | working class. | The filthiest slander against the Austrian workers comes, of course, from one trained in the Socialist Party, one of its former outstanding leaders, Heywood | Broun. | Writing in the New York World-Telegram of Feb- | ruary 14th, while tens of thousands of Austrian workers, | their wives and daughters, were fighting on the barri- | cades against the fi ist barbarians, giving their lives | for the prolet an conquest of power, for socialism | and for a better world, Mr. Broun gratuitously remarks that he does “not see how anybody can regret the dead and injured.” To him there are just dead and | injured.

That the French proletariat by the millions poured out in an unprecedented mass political strike against fascism, is, to the capitalist dictatorship | | of course, a subject. for belittlement for those whose task it is to help the advance of fascism in the United | States. Training in the leading ranks of the Socialist | Party was not wasted on Mr. Broun. | “Revolutions are not won at the barricades, no mat- ter what the revolutionaries tell you,” lies this denizen of the New York booze dives. The Russian workers overthrew czarism on the bar- | ricades and are now building socialism. | French feudalism was overthrown on the barricades. British rule was driven out of the United States by the American revolution. Chattel slavery was ended on the barricades of the Civil War. Yet for Mr. Broun “revolutions are not won at the barricades.” The capitalist press in its estimate of the street fighting in Paris declared that all previous estimates of barricade fighting would have to be revised. The | masses on the streets were nullifying every effort of the French bourgeoisie after the Paris Commune to | make barricade fighting impossible. | * * * i ed Austrian workers on the barricades are deciding the fate of their treacherous social-democratic lead- | ers, they are rallying the whole world proletariat for | a most gigantic united front struggle against fascism. It becomes the major editorial task of the dema- New York Eyening Post to defend the Social- Democratic leadership. Under the title “murdering his own allies,” the Post declares: “Dr. Dollfuss is deal~ ing out murder to the very allies he needed to saye | Austria from Hitler.” The workers and their women | folk fighting on the barricades were never the allfes | of Dr. Dollfuss. His alfles were the Social-Democratic leaders. The workers are breaking with these “allies | of Dollfuss,” the Social-Democratic leaders, They aré taking the road of revolutionary struggle. | “Dollfuss,” says the Post, “is doing the dirty work | for Hitlerism in Austria.” But they fail to add the | more important fact when they deal with the allies of | Dollfuss, namely, that the Social-Democratic leaders | were doing the dirty work for Dollfuss. Thus all the | links in the fascist chain are complete. ee | gogic | "HAT the Austrian workers on the barricades now | see the truth of the bitter treachery of their leaders | is shown from the following incident taken from a Vienna cable to the New York Evening Journal, Feb. 14th: | “One of the Socialist Schutzbund officers command- | ing a barricade at Sandleiten, which was shelled all | day by government troops, said: ‘We have been de- | serted by our leaders. It is fortunate for them they are in prison’.” | In the Austrian situation it was only the Com- | munist press, and in the first place the Daily Worker, | central organ of the Communist Party, U. 8. A. that brought the facts to the workers, as well as the clear | analysis of the events, with the correct revolutionary | lessons for the American workers. It is the function of the American capitalist press to whitewash and preserve the face of every r ary force of world capitalism, to besmirsh the heroism, the daring, the revolutionary courage of the Austrian working-class. But the American workers, hard-pressed by hunger, by the advance of fascist attacks, and the growing war danger, will be able to see t®:ough the tissue of lies in the capitalist press. They will be able to tower above the venom of their own exploitezs and reach out their hands in token of international solidarity with their Austrian comrades, | Workers Rally Against War Nazis Hefusc To Tell Fate | Of Thaelmann | THEIR MIGHTIE | | | |Berlin Warten, Demand | |Freedom for Dimitroff, | Torgler, Thaelmann | |.

To Outlaw Canadian ‘Labor Defense Body ‘Aim of Smith Trial | Hearing Tomorrow in Drive to Suppress Mili- tant Organization TORONTO, Can.—Trial of A. E. Smith, General Secretary of the Ca- nadian Labor Defense League (I.L.D.) has been set for Feb. 19, in spite of demands by the League and its coun- sel that at least two months be given for preparation of the defense against the “sedition” charge. Smith is now out on $10,000 bail. ‘The charge against Smith, based on a statement alleged to have been taken down in stenographic notes by one of the notorious Canadian North- west Mounted Police stool-pigeons at a@ meeting he addressed, is an attempt to completely outlaw the Canadian Labor Defense League, and as such is an attack on the entire working- class movement in Canada.

B. Bennett, who last year declared over a nation- wide radio hook-up that “From now on Hitler is-my model,” ordered the murder of Tim Buck, Communist leader, in prison.
