A Heart Cry from Amsterdam

THE position of workers in Bulgaria under the pres
ent dominating military fascist clique is painted
in the BLACKLIST Of eoors by press notice published
in the Bulletin of the Amsterdam International"
of March Is. Regulation of labor conditions does
not exist the enterprises are unsanitary through
OUT the state gives relief to the unemployed who
number than one hundred thousand; trade
union organizations prosecuted relentlessly. In
word, "the general economic and political reaction
is becoming more intoerable."
All this and much more is true: During the past
four years. when police repressions arrests and muir
derous treatment in the police stations had been
unable to smother the revolutionary labor move
ment, wholesale massacres resorted to. Many
Of the foremost workers have been killed off, scores
of the best trade union workers have been beaten
up among whom secretary of the Revolution
airy Trade Union Centre-Comrade joke Dinitrov.
The Amsterdamers write in their Bulletin that
the reformist unions in Bulgaria Numerically weak)
carried resolute struggle against the military
fascist reaction and subjected to police persecu
tons. This is an insolent and shameless lie. The
whole world knows that the Bulgarian reformists
actively supported the fascsts during the coup detat
of 1923. The wellknown reformst trade union leader
and member of the Central Committee of the So
cal-Democratic Party, Kasasov became a minister
in the fascist government. Gregory Danov another
leader and secretary Of the reformist trade union
centre besides the other thirty socialist deputies
tered parliament on general fascist ticket.

Moreover reformist leaders did not even refrain
from personal participation in torturng and killing
revolutionary trade union leaders. In PIovdive Com
rade st. Kiradjiev, the secretary of the Tobacco
Workers Union, who very popular among the
revolutionary workers. was killed by the reformists

recian of the reformist trade union movement him.
self directed the torturing and killing of hundreds
of revolutionary workers and peasants in the Sep
TENDER days of 1928. All this the Amsterdam lead
ers know perfectly well.
Last year when the reformists organized the So
called Balkan Conference in Sofia, the Bulgarian
workers through their Independent trade unions de-
manded that the question Of the White Terror ins
the Balkans be included in the agenda of the con-
ference Sassenbach and Martens who were direct
ing the conference, bluntly rejected this demand,
stating that it could not be expected to occupy itself
with political questions referring to the internal
affairs of other countries. With the fascist reac-
ton in Bulgaria and all over the Balkan countries
the refusal to discuss this question was paramount
to silent approval And now we have the edifying
spectacle of Amsterdam shedding crocodile tears
over the sufferings of the Bulgarian workers.
The assertion Of the Bulletin" that Bulgarian
workers entering fascist organizations is also
untrue In the terrible conditions that have prevailed
since the April 1926 massacres when the Red Trade
Unions were destroyed, the Bulgarian workers have
begun to organize their independent class trade
unions and despite all obstacles the aboring masses
Of Bulgaria are entering and supporting then today

workers are more modern, setting an example
for the peasantry. They to be found in the billy
and woody country along the Valley of the Mos
cow River.
We discussed the agriculture of the Soviet Union,
its forestry problems the relations between the city
workers and the peasantry the development of ami
NAL huSbandry, the housing problem in city and
village; the recovery of industry and many other
questions the auto kept up steady pace of from
40 to 30 miles an hour over a road that
ceeding revelation to me, who had been told that
the highways of the Soviet Union were mo good"
1t was thus that came to Kolomna, passing
huge farm implement manufacturing plant on its
outskirts we entered the gates of the city. Tho
plant was probably not as large the Mccormick
International Harvester Plants in Chicago, but its
size was, nevertheless impressive
The population of Kolomaa is set down $4,000
for 1929 1t is claimed that it has at least 49,
600. 1t boasts huge machine works, founded in the
COS of the 18th century, where 1000 workers are
employed.
We stepped out of the car into October Revolu-
tion Street before the City Hall that faces large
public park across the highway. We were first
greeted by the Commandant of the city. Inside the
City Hall met the assistant mayor and then
Comrade Gruschin, the Mayor lie escorted us to
the meeting of the Party Committee in the Partys
own headquarters the second floor. On the walls
are pictures of Karl Marx, and of the Second Con-
gress of the Communist International and banner

the factory and the fact that 13 had failed to report

go per cent taking advantage of MARKHAM lee
ture courses, which not considered sufficient.
This, however, would be considered an exceedingly
high percentage in the United States. We could
only remain for few moments because we had to
catch our train for Ozery. But Our Mayor, Comrade
Gruschin, got time to point out that the beautiful
park acrosS the way had come into existence since
the revolution, that the electric and water system
in the city were new, and that other important
improvements under consideration. The city
owns fleet of modern auto-buses TO transport the
workers from their homes to their workshops
Across the street from the City Ea was the
Soviet Hotel, where got bite to eat. On another
corner was the local branch of the Moscow Bank.
Then there was a branch Of the Sewing Machine
Government Trust, announcing that it was a part or
the ALI Union Council of National Economy. On the
way to the station saw the new housing program
in action. 1t had been started in 1925. Some build
ings, each housing eight families had already been
completed. Others were under course of consruc-
ton Thus Kolomna more than Is centuries old

Where the Red Flag Flies
By J. LOUIS ENGDAHL

HERE we are about 80 miles from Moscow, to the
South, as Philadelphia is from New York. or
Milwaukee from Chicago
Kolomna is one of the oldest towns in the Moscow
Province 1t is mentioned for the first time in 1177:
TINS town being the last fortified place on the south
OF Moscow. 1t played an important part during the
battles between Moscow's grand dukes and the Tar
tars.
''Ihe Guide to the Soviet Union" tells us that the
walls of the Kremlin crowned by pinnacles were
erected by Italian architects in 1885, that the Pyat-
nltzkiye Gate and the Marinkina Corner Tower are
in specially good condition It is also declared that
the ancient Voskressensky (Resurrection) Church,
built about the 13-14th century, and the Uspensky
(Assumption) Cathedral, dating with its befry
from 1917, are also worth noticing.
But what we most interested in Is the fact
that the Red Flag of the Social Revolution flies
over the City Hall 1.-THE House of the Sovets) that
the Local Committee of the Communist Party is
holding its meeting this Saturday afternoon, IN
THE CITY HALL, and that the local Communist
newspaper, bi-weeky, The Kolomna Worker, with
1000 circulation, also has its offices IN THE CITY
HALL.
Kolomna win always be memorable to me as the
place where l met for the first time Communist
mayor in city of the Soviet Union 1t is the place
where first saw lower unit of the Communist
Party of the Soviet Union at work.
We had stopped off at Kolomna on our way to
ozery for May Day meeting on this Saturday night,
the eve of May Day.
In little more than three hours we had made the
distance by auto from the Comintern Building in
Mokhovaya Street, in Moscow, first stopping at the
beautiful building housing the financial department
Of the Moscow Province to pick up its chief AexseI

vincal Executive Committee Of the Soviets who was
coming along to make the main address in Russian.

national and the Workers (Communistl Party OF
America. and Comrade Gerish, deportee from
America. came along translator. The chauffeur
completed the party.
1t feels good to ride in an auto in the Soviet
Union. It symbolizes to great extent the success
full struggle of the Russian to get off their
knees where czarism tried to hold Them and stand
erect The plodding horse with his meager load to
market is being supplanted the road just as the
tractor is lifting the burden of toll on the land
The district thru which we sped was the truck
garden and the dairy country of Moscow. With
the coming of May Day here spring is coming into
its and everything is turning green. In the
meadows frequently we passed were great herds
of cows, with greater flocks of sheep. The hills
rolled lazily toward the horizon, with the woods
everywhere plentiful The peasant still likes to
build his home with logs, and there many indica
tions that the peasants likes to follow after
him.
