the war.
The proletarian revolution Of Russia
gave the exploited masses of the
world, who heretofore had been
everywhere oppressed by the rule of
capitalism, a political stronghold as
the ruling class Of a powerful and
very important country. In its very
existence, the Soviet Union gives the
exploited everywhere a consciousness
of their power. This. has made and
still makes the existence Of the
Soviet Union a menace in the eyes Of
the imperialists. Therefore, the
whole period since the end Of the war
has been filled with military inter
vention, diplomatic conspiracies, and
all other possible forms of struggle
against the Soviet Union.
The example set by the revolution
airy workers Of Russia and the in
SEPARATION supplied by the very exist
ence of workers rule have
strengthened and invigorated the re-
sistance of colonial and seni-colonial
masses against foreign imperialist
oppression. The fight for indepen-
dence of the oppressed masses in the
extensive British colonies received
new impetus. The Chinese masses
awoke to a realization of their power
and began a struggle for freedom
from oppression.
Great Britain, whose most i'm
mediate interests were at stake, has
since exerted all efforts to make the
imperialist powers Of the word tenn
porarily forget their mutual an
tagonisms and unite on the basis of
their mutual interests in struggle
against China and the Soviet Union.
This has created an immediate war
danger. The imperialist powers fully
realize the threat to their interests
by the Soviet Union and the ever
growing struggle for liberation of the
colonial and semi-colonial masses.
The danger therefore exists that the
imperialists of Great Britain. will
succeed in uniting the imperialist
powers for broader struggle against
the Workers Republics of Russia and
against the awakening nationalist
masses of the far east.
Threaten British Imperialism.
The danger which nationalist lib
Grafton in China creates for British
imperialism in India and China is
such an immediate one that the
British imperialists will leave nc
stone unturned to win the imperialist
powers Of the world for a united on
slaught against the Soviet Union and
China. The raid on the Soviet En-
bassy in Picking, the bombardment OF
Marking and the subsequent Five
Power note were all steps designed by
British Imperialism TO gain its end.
American imperialism, altho oe-
cupied with unprecedented aggres-
sion in its own particular "sphere OF
influence" Central ana South Ameri-
ca, still has sufficient common i'm
perialist interests with Great Britain
in China and against the Soviet Union
to make the danger of united front
/ between American Imperialism anC
British Imperialism a very real one
The American flag not only follows
the dollar but, in the interests of it:
ultimate aims, even precedes the dol
lar. Defense by American warship:
/ by American marines and American
soldiers of the American dollars in
vested in Mexico and other Contra
and South American countries, il
complemented by the sending o.
American warships, Americ
soldiers, and marines to China to wiz
new possibilities for investing Ameri
can dollars.
The war danger created in Chin;
has been supplemented and made
more serious by the incessant studied
provocations perpetrated by British
imperialism. Of these provocations
the raid on the ARGOS is the lates
and most outrageous one. The diplo
matte forms, which this most naughty
Of the powers is always willing t.
grant to the representatives of thu
most insignificant princedoms of thu
world, are being outraged by tn
treatment accorded by the British
imperialist government to the repre-
sentatives of the Workers Republic
of Russia.
These studied insults against tn
Soviet Union are designed to pro
woke the Workers Republic and are
bid for declarations Of solidarity W.T.
the British imperialists ON the pai
Of the imperialists of the otho
countries. Like the raid on III
Peking Soviet Embassy, the raid o.
the ARGOS was a wnful attempt t
create cause for war. If the Britis
imperialists succeed with their pro
vocations, the nations of the worl
will be embroiled in new world wa,
The fathers, brothers and sons Of III
working class will again be slaught
