VOICE DEMAND
OF F|LIPINOS
FOR FREEDOM
Want No elaboration
of Imperialist Rule

Not TO negotiate for a moderation"
Of American imperiallst rule in the
Philippine Islands, but to voice the
demand of the Filipino people for i'm
mediate and complete Independence
---that is the purpose for which SEN
ator Sergio osmena and the other
members of the Filipino dndepend-
ence mission now in Washington, were
sent to this country.
This fact was made public yester-
day by the All-America Anti-Imperi-
ialist League, whose sections in Latin
America and the United States are
lending full support tot he Philip
pine national liberation movement.
The league calls attention to official
decisions of the Philippine nationalist
party and the Philippine legislature
as we'll, adopted at the time when the
mission was elected last August.
According to the instructions de-
livered to the mission at the time of
their sailing, they must hold out
against "any suggestion of comprom-
Uses such as national autonomy,
home rule. or limited independence
under American supervision" AS
a separate nation of 11,500,000 people,
the Filipinos demand the right to
govern themselves in their own way,
without interference on the part of
any imperialist power.
It is pointed out that altho the
Philippine Islands was granted au-
tonomy some nine years ago, this has
not prevented Governor-G General
Wood from systematically opposing
every act of the Philippine legislat-
ure calculated to safeguard the con-
troll Of Philippine affairs by the Fill
ipinos themselves. He has been an
unrelenting foe of the Philippine Ma
tional bank and of every other insti-
tuition which sought to free the people
from the domination Of Wall Street
interests.
IF nothing else is accomplished by
the visit of Senator Osmena's mis-
sion," declares the bulletin of the ALL
America AntiImperialist League, 1T
will serve to attract worldwide at
tention to the unprecedented out
RACES committed by General Woods
colonial administration. Nor is Gen
eral Wood alone responsible. He was
appointed by President Coolidge. who
has turned deaf ear to every pro-
test of the Filipino people demanding
his recall. Obviously then, the mat
ter will not be settled by the remov-
al of a governor-general, but only by
immediate and complete independ-
ence for the Philippines from Amer
lean wall Street, rule"

CHAS. EDWARD Russell. men,
= Der of the Root expedition to
throw mud at Soviet Russia, erstwhile
defender of Philippine independence,
renegade socialist and a few other
things, is now on the payroll of the
Irish republicans in the United States.
For consideration, Russell is willing
to tilt lance at any enemy. Has the
Irish republican movement in the
United States fallen so low that it
must utilize a discredited hack like
Russel? But this much can be said,
for Russell: at some time in his life
he raised his voice against the rob
bers OF the working class. in the
United States. There were thousands
of others in the camp or the irish ma
tionalists who distinguished them
selves only as the Simon Legrees Of
American capitalism. Irish radicals
are strong in favor of driving the last
yestige of British Imperialism out or
Ireland but they have no desire to be
used as puppets by renegade social
lists, papal tools and American cap
italists.

in Prague that the Georgian working
class did not stand in need of their
assistance, and that the less the Eu-
ropean bourgeoisie talked of Georgia,
the better it would be for Georgia
and the Georgian working class.
Those Georgian emigrants who wish
to go the way of Marx should return
to Georgia and help us with the work
Of reconstruction. Those emigrants
however, who are striving for an in.
tervention against Soviet Georgia,
will meet the former mensheviks in
the ranks of the Red Army.
Sulakwadidse, who arrived in Geor-
gia 8 months ago to perform illegal
work for the mensheviks and who
after seeing the real situation in
Georgia, broke with the mensheviks,
spoke to the delegation in the same
tone.
Condemn Mensheviks.
The social democrat, Wunderlich,
made the following answer: I'VE are
social democrats, but we want moth
ing to do with such people as we met
today in Titlis prison, nor with their
friends in Europe. During our stay
in Soviet Georgia and in Soviet Rus
STA we have recognized that great
work of socialist reconstruction has
been begun, that here the working
class feels that it is the master of
its destinities, the captain Of its state,
Your work is for the benefit Of the
international working class"

declared that the treatment in the
prison left nothing to be desired and
in this the prisoners agreed.
On the same day the delegates had
discussion with one time menshe.
vik workers who are now working
hand in hand with the Soviet govern,
ment.
Kuprashcvili, the oldest member OF
the Georgian social democracy, greet.
ed the delegation in the name of the
ex-mensheviks and declared that H..
900 one time mensheviks, had since
discovered their error and were now
working hand in hand with the rest
of the working class for the national
and cultural reconstruction of Soviet
Georgia.
Beat Reactionaries.
The social democrat, Bachmann
declared in the name Of the Czechish
delegation that after conversations
with the members of the "menshevist
committee" now in Tiflis prison, the
delegation had come to the conclu
sion that the Georgian social democ'
racy no longer had the right to call
itself a workers party. The opinions
Of Andronikoschvili are no different
from the opinions held by the black
est reactionaries in any Of the Euro
pean countries.

called "menshevist labor commission
Dasmaschvili, requested the delega
ton to inform the Georgian emigrants

further stated that the present polit-
ical situation in Canton is quite stable
and that the Kuomintang has power
fully and firmly in its hands. There
should be no anxiety for the fate Of
Canton in connection with Chen Chuin-
Minis action supported by Chang Tso-
Lin.
I'VE fought"-said General Hu Han
Min-"and defeated Chen Chuin.Min
when its army consisted Of 10000
men. Now he has no more than 10000
and we are sure of the victory"
With regard to the tariff confer
ence, General Hui Han-Min said that it
will not give any favorable results
to China, but will serve as a practical
lesson to those who still believe in
the possibility of peaceful settle
ment Of the outstanding questions be-
tween the Chinese people and the
imperialists.
Pleased With Russia.
AS to his impressions in the Union
Of Socialist Soviet Republics, General
HUI Han-Min said that as yet he has
seen little of the vast nation but that
he is deeply impressed by the close
cooperation between the government,
Communist Party and the people in
the reconstruction Of the country.
General HUI Han-Min intends to stay
in the Union of Socialist Soviet Re-
publics for a few months.

Segregation Of Negro
Race Effective

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-(FP)-Be-
lieving that the rent laws that halted
indiscriminate rent boosting for the
last FIVE years will not be renewed
by the state legislature when they
expire next February landlords have
commenced already to raise their
charges and in no place more so than
in the Negro district OF Harlem, the
UP town part Of Manhattan Island.
Frank Crosswaith, executive secre-
tary Of the trade union committee for
organizing Negro workers gave the
Federated Press an example from his
own family, where his aunt had her
rent raised ST. month.
Unofficial Segregation.
The unofficial segregation that con-
fines the Negroes to certain quarters
of the city makes them that much
more the victims Of the landlords.
They cannot escape as can white
workers and take their pick Of loca-
tons.
The rent hearings have come to an
end with nearly twenty witnesses
from tenants organizations taking the
floor and telling Of the crowding at
high prices to which they are sub
jected.
Little of the new housing comes
within the rental possibilities Of the
ordinary workers and these are con-
demned to take the older and more
unsanitary tenement dwellings.
Such new cheaper rental apartment
homes that have been built in the
Long Island section Of the city are to
a large extent Of the fretrap variety,

ITO the citizens OF Illinois:
Early advices would indicate that

munities and it's offer has been ac-
copied.
Every means at the command
Of the executive for the amelioration
of the distressing conditions and
the devastated area will be employed
and units of the National Guard of
Illinois will be modified and moved
where necessary as the necessities
develop.
IT hereby appeal to our citizens
for funds for the relief Of these
stricken peoples and request that
contributions be forwarded direct to
William M. Baxter, Jr.. assistant to
tho vice chairman of the American
