Fascists Agitate
for Restoration"
of "Lost Provinces"
Especial to The Daily Worker

PARIS, March 23.-The French gov
eminent views uneasily the fascist
campaign carried on thru Italy for the
restoration Of Nice, Savoy and Cor
sica which the agitators term the
lost provinces" 1t is known, too,
that Mussolini has his eyes upon
Tunis and Syria, as fields for Italian
expansion in Africa and Asia Minor.
Diplomatic relationships between
France and Italy exhibit none of these
sources Of friction, tho there is little
doubt that the fascist government is
encouraging the propaganda. An ele-
ment of danger is the fact that mill
tary dictators, such as Mussolini, may
precipitate grave situation on short
notice, especially when home condi-
tons threaten their power.

ROssi Spills Some Beans

THE articles now being published
by the world press written by
General Ceasare Rossi, formerly
high in the councils of Fascismo and
now exiled in France to save Musso-
lini's face in the matter of the Mat
teoti assassination, must be read with
an eye to separating the wheat from
the chaff. The statements OF Signor
Rossi show an obvious intent to do
two things: to wash the linen he him
self dirtied during four years Of fas-
cist leadership and to wreck personal
vengeance on his fascisti double-cross-
ers beginning with Mussolini.
To accomplish this Rossi has had to
tell tale or two out of school. His
articles do not convince a discerning
reader that he had nothing to do with
the Matteoti assassination altho It is
very easy to believe that Matteoti's
death was engineered by the fascist
executive committee as Rossi charges.
But there had been sufficient evidence
OF this before Rossi spoke.
Rossi, however, in the course Of his
accusations reveals some trite and
interesting facts about Fascismo itself
Most outstanding Of those is that the
party OF fascism is dollhouse of DO
litcal intrigue and a stamping ground

Japanese Note Moderate.

TOXIC, March 23.-The terms of
the recent note to China concerning
the clash at Tientsin exemplify the
moderation policy of the present
Shidehara cabinet in the general re-
lationships of Japan to that country.
1t Is in contrast to the open support
given Chang Tso Lin in Manchuria
during the Kuo Sung-Lin revolt.
The official press states that Japan
will be satisfied if the Picking author
tiles take up the matter promptly for
further negotiations and emphasize
the point that even refusal will not
lead to drastic measures at this time.
In the latter event, Japan, it is said,
will look to the world for moral sup
port to her claims.
Economic Reasons.
This change in the usually bellicose
attitude of Toxic towards China is
based on the fact that it is vital for
the Japanese to add no further fuel to
the already ardent and nationwide
hatred of the Chinese for them. The
country is in no condition for further
large losses in its trade with its neigh
Dor across the Yellow Sea.

SOVIET LEADERS
PAY HIGH HONOR
TO A. BRUSILOFF
Former Czarist General
Served Workers

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., March 2S.-
The funeral of General Alexei A.
Brusiloff, who died on the 18th, was
marked by the tributes of high Soviet
officials, including General Voroshilov,
commander in chief of the Red army.
Brusiloff at the outbreak of the
world war was in command of the
Russian corps which carried on the
struggle against the German-Austrian
armies in the Carpathians in 1914 and
1915. The following year he directed
the advance on the southwest front
and by compelling the Austrians to
withdraw part of their army on the
Italian front made the Italian victory
possible.
The resignation OF Car Nicholas in
1917 is credited to Bruisloff's infu-
ence. Under Kerensky he became
commander in chief OF all the Rus
sian armies, but resigned in July.
Becomes 5olsevIk Adviser.
The Bolsheviks, after the Novem.
Der revolution, arrested him, impris-
oning him in the Kremlin for two
months. Later on they placed him in
charge Of the reorganization of the
Soviet military forces under the
watch of special war commissar.
Contrary to most of the high COM
mand OF the old czarist regime,
Brusiloff accepted loyalty his new
tasks and contributed his great abil-
ity to building up the Red army. He
explained his attitude thus:
Sovlets Right to Survive.
~ submit to the will Of the peo-
Pile; II has the right to have any
government II likes. While II may
be that ! do not approve Of the
various acts and tactics Of the
Soviet government, nevertheless
recognize its sound basic prlneL
pies, which have every right to
survive, and, therefore, am glad
to devote my strength to my be-
loved fatherIand,"
Sons In Both. Armies.
He had one son in the Red army
and one son in the White army. Both
were killed in action.

Of intra-party factions. This is to be
expected Of such a party. There is
great rivalry for example between
Mussolini and Farinacci the general
eeretary-treasurer of the party.
There is question in Rossi's mind as
to who is the real dictator. But when
Rossi speaks of the growing power of
the nationalists and connects the lat
ter with the power Banca Commercial
it becomes doubtful whether either of
the two DIS dictator. 1t is significant
that the nationahsts under the lead
ership of Federzoni and Rocco have
all the important posts in the foreign
Office, the defense ministry and the
judiciary. "The nationalists have
even obtained entire domination of
the national militia, which was to
have been a reserve Of the fascist
revolution but now is reluctantly
obliged to swear allegiance to the
king" 1t is this growth Of national
list influence, representative Of the re-
turning political hegemony of banking
and big industry, that has doubtless
encouraged Mussolini's imperialist
gestures, especially with regard to
North Africa, territory in which Ital-
ian industry covets for colonial ex-
pansion.
During Rossi's spasm of hatred and
revenge he has told several truths
that, pieced together, foretell the
utter collapse of fascism in the near
future. The workers of Italy, since
the betrayal Of their reformist leaders
in 1920, have not summoned the en-
ergy and organization necessary to re-
pulse fascism. Much of fascism's
strength has come from the division
and weakness and bad leadership Of
the workers. They are now nearly fed
up. There are definite indications
that the workers of Italy are prepar-
ing to retrieve their losses, throw
overheard their reformist leaders and
declare open warfare on fascism.

France Pays 10,6OO,O0O
Francs for Aeroplanes
Which Cannot be Flown

PARIS, March 23.-The investiga-
tons of the chamber of deputies has
revealed a war scandal here rivaling
those Of America.
One of the largest aeroplane firms
in France received a government or
der for IT'S all-metal planes at total
price Of 100000 francs. The COM
pany had already been paid on &C
count 100000 francs when it was
discovered that the machines were
so defective as to be entirely useless.
The firms official repres sentative at
this stage demanded that 100000
francs out of the contract price of
1O,600,000 still due should be paid and
the transaction would be considered
closed. In other words, the govern
ment would have on its hands lot of
steel frames and be out 10,600,000
francs.
A Friend In Need.
The war ministry refused such a
settlement. The official representa-
tive of the concern, however, was a
great friend Of the war minister. The
was that while the firm
should have reimbursed the govern
ment for the money paid, it actually
received 100000 francs more upon the
deal.
An Appropriate Candidate.
The minister Of war had the ap-
propriate name of Maginot. The rem
resentative of the firm was M. de
Kerillis, an editor of one of this city's
most reactionary dailies. the Echo de
Paris, and was a parliamentary candi-
date Of the right wing bloc in the
last elections.

In the American movement, these
dangers have become apparent. This

ciples and Is an invaluable guide to the
correct road for American Labor.

ARGUE WHITNEY
APPEAL BEFORE
SUPREME COURT
Syndicalisn Case Tests
California Law
Especial to The Daily worker)

WASHINGTON, March %. The
United States supreme court Is ex-
pected to return decision on the
Charlotte Anita Whitney syndicalism
appeal soon.
The case was argued before the
court on March IS. Walter H. Pollak
Of New York summed up for the ap-
pellant. He raised the point that the
14th amendment had been violated in
the enactment of this state law, since
it was intended to deprive citizens of
their liberty because they held certain
opinions procedure which was not
due process of law. Moreover, 1t
violated the guaranty of equal pro
lection under the law, since 1t makes
crime Of certain acts when aimed to
produce changes in industrial and po-
litical institutions, while it does not
equally penalize the same acts if not
aimed at industrial and political
change.
Discriminatory Law.
He asked the court to assume, for
instance, that certain acts of violence
we're committed by the ku klux khan
and by the I. w. W., and that the
khan favored keeping industrial and
political institutions as they are, while
the l. W. w. sought to change them.
This state criminal syndicalism law
would not call for punishment of the
khan for doing thing that would be
punishable if done by the 1. w. w.
Miss Whitney has assisted in raising
defense for the I. w. W., who were
| prescribed in California under this
law. Her conviction was in part due
to the showing that the national con-
vention of the Communist labor party
adopted platform in which the 1.
w. w. were hailed as having con-
tributed to the American labor move
ment by their "long and valiant strug-
giles and heroic sacrifices in the class
war" The Oakland convention which
she attended adopted the Chicago ina
tional platform unchanged, but with
out any emphasis upon, or discussion
of, this reference to the l. w. w.
Long Pending Case.
Miss Whitney was originally con-
victed under the syndicalism law Of
California in 1920 for having par
ticipated in the state Communist la
Dor party convention of the previous
fall, held in Oakland where she lives.
She was sentenced to from one to
fourteen years in the state peniten-
tiary. Her appeal before the federal
supreme court has been pending for
some years. 1t was dismissed for tech
nical reasons last December but she
was allowed to amend the appeal to
bring the issues squarely before the
court.

cause Of TIentsIn eIoekade.

CANTON, March %. - The back
ground Of recent. events in Tientsin
in connection with the Taku incidents
is becoming clearer.
A reliable informant who has just
arrived from there states that the
Chang Tso Lin forces attacking Tient-
sin tried to slip their soldiers into
the city by swinging their vessels into
the channel close behind the foreign
steamers, thus compelling the defend
Ors either to endanger foreigners by
firing directly over the ships OF to
allow their enemies to get near
enough to enable them to land. The
Japanese ships were thus followed
particularly, leading to the justified
suspicion that this was due to a pre-
arrangement, strengthened by the
well-known friendship between Chang
Tso Lin and the imperial Japanese
government.
Japanese Courted Disaster.
The Japanese warships which were
fired upon by the Taku forts had alb
solutely no reason for trying to reach
Tientsin, according to this informant,
as the foreigners in the city were in
no danger.
