The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-11-14

uclu us SESSIONS recently IN chicago,
in which the congress analyses the
urge of the imperialist powers to
dominate the darker races and shows
that the enslavement of the darker
races can only be combatted by or
gained action and for that purpose
the congress declares itself in favor
Of the convening of a world race
congress at which the question of
combating imperialism will be the
main issue: 80
Imperialism is the enslavement Of
the entire world by capitalist nations
or groups of capitalist nations, bring
ing under their oppressive rule the
1,100,O00,00O darker colored peoples
in Asia, Africa, the Philippines, Mex
leo, Haiti, Porto Rico, Cehsyal and
North America.
lmperiaIist Domination.
From the colonies and semi-colon-
ial regions, the imperialist nations
secure immense supplies of raw mat
erials produced at a lower labor cost
by reason of the inferior social, econ
omic and political status forced upon
the darker-skinned peoples.
I'm these regions also the imperial
list nations find markets for the output
Of their factories.
Here also they conscript recruits
for the armies with which the imper-
ialist nations wage war on one an
other, on Soviet Russia, on the colon
ial peoples themselves and ON the
working class.
Debauch Labor Aristocracy.
by force, bribery and debauchery,
the imperialist powers maintain divi-
sion among the darker-skinned peo-
pies, and the proceeds of the robbery
practised upon them, are able in turn
to bride and debauch certain upper
sections of the working class in the
imperialist nations.
without the profits from the con-
quest and sweating of the darker
skinned peoples, the great imperialist
nations cannot maintain themselves.
Life and Death Struggle.
For these reasons the complete
liberation of all the darker-skinned
peoples of Africa, Asia, America and
South America from the rule of world
Imperialism is of life and death i'm
portance to the whole working and
farming classes-colored and white
in the imperialist nations, their col
onies and spheres of influence.
ffNUo coil attention of Tho
Negro masses to the recent announce
ment of the entry of American imper-
ialism on an immense scale in the
$100,000,000 Liberian project of the
Firestone Rubber company, into the
African continent-hitherto the ex-
elusive field of Great Britain, France,
Belgium and Holland-and in an i'm
perialist industry monopolized by
Great Britain.
1--WE declare that this new rivalry
arising over the question as to whe-
Their British or American imperialism
shall have the power to Cypress and
rob millions of our race. means an
added menace of imperialist war in
which our race, unless awake to its
danger, will be conscripted by both
sets of imperialists and slaughtered
by the millions.
Break Chains Of Bondage.
But there is encouraging evidence
that our race, and the natives of
India, China, Egypt and Morocco, are
moving to break their chains of bloody
bondage.
TN China, beginning with strike
of textile workers in Shanghai, the
liberation movement has swept to the
farthest corners of the nation, based
itself upon the workers and farmers,
developed definitely anti-imperialist
and firm working class character.
"All Of the Chinese masses are
uniting against the imperialist rob-
bers of America, Great Britain, Jap
