WARNS OF DANGER
OF IMPERIAL
ATTACK ON U.S.S.R.
The Third international
Appeals to Workers

session Of the Executive Committee OF
the Communist International has
adopted a manifesto addressed to the
workers, peasants and soldiers OF all
the world, and all oppressed peoples,
wherein it points out the growing
danger of a new war. 1t says:
"In China the worker and peasant
masses are rising against unrestrain-
ed foreign capitalistic exploitation.
The Chinese revolution is drawing
capitalism from its condition of tenn
porary stabilization and deepening the
crisis.
ECHOES of the struggle in China
are finding response in other colonies,
Indonesia, Indo-China and India. The
imperialists, although torn asunder by
contradictions, in face of the revolt
of the colonial peoples, are attempt
ing to rally united front to crush
the Chinese revolution.
"The wrath of the capitalists is
first of all directed against the work
ers of the Soviet Union-the republic
which shows the toiling masses the
way towards freedom. To preserve
the rule of the bourgeoisie over the
colonies and the regime of exploita-
tion of the working masses of the
European countries, the stronghold Of
the proletariat-t workers state
must be levelled to the ground.
"The raids on the embassy in Pek-
ing, the consulate in Shanghai and
the trade mission in London is aimed
to provoke war against the Soviet
Union. The revolutionary steadfast-
ness of the revolutionary state show
ed all the world that the U. S. S. R.
is pursuing a policy of peace and
forced British Imperialism to assgme
the initiative in rupture Of diplo-
matte relations. This act signals the
greatest danger for the world prole-
tariat. ~
Mobile against War
at is necessary to mobilize all
forces against war and for the sup
port of the proletarian state threat
ened by the joint forces of world capi-
talism. In recent years at Locarno,
Leghorn, and Geneva, British imper-
ialism has succeeded in engineering
bloc of imperialistic states against
the u. S. S. r. It will undoubtedly
obtain from Hindenburg's Germany,
in the name Of the League of Ma
tions, permission for sending through
Germany troops and munitions for
the struggle against the Soviet Union.
Imperialism has most energetically
created around the U. S. S. R. hos
tile Gordon of it's vassal states, where
military dictatorship and terror
against the proletariat and peasants
Is rampant.
"In Poland and Lithuania, owing to
coups d'etats subsidized by London,
and in Roumania with the favorable
assistance of Mussolini, power is in
the hands of governments which are
obedient tools of Chamberlains At
the moment of the rupture of diplo-
matte relations with the u. S. S. r.
the British government was celebrat-
ing it's reconciliation with the Poin-
care war government. 1t is true that
in the united front of the imperialis-
tic states, fragile Germany and Italy
are already bringing up the problem
of a new repartition of the world.
The Mediterranean Sea and the Bal
kans are a constant focus for in
trigues and rivalry, with depredators
snatching world booty from one an
other. However, these conflicts are
actually in the background. The
Italo- -Yugoslavian conflict showed
Britain knows how to subdue rapidly
4 any struggle arising between capital
jstic states, and 10 rally them in
united front against the common
enenlyy-the working class and its
proletaTian state. War against the
Soviet Union means war against the
proletariat. In preparing war i'm

tional social democracy wishes to use
the working class for war. Still more
dangerous for the toiling masses than
the open cynical detection of the right

fallacious pacifistic illusions of the
left leaders Of social democracy in
the trade unions, lulling the working
masses with the opium Of sentimental
pacifism. instead of mobilizing them
for the struggle against war.
