The new prices are carrying out the

JAPAN IN SOUTH
AMERICAN U. S.
BRITISH FIGHT
Colombia Grants Large
Concession to Rival

BOGOTA, Colombia, Oct 3.-An-
other power has entered the two
cornered FIGHT of Britain and the
United States in Latin America
with the granting of 100000 acre
concession to the japanese govern
ment in Caquets. Colombia, where
1000 japanese will be colonized.
The contract was signed yesterday
and provides that all resources
found on the land will belong to the
Japanese colonists. Every immi-
grant will receive a plot of 800
acres, and they will all be under the
direct supervision of the Japanese
Commercial Mission here. DR.. S.
Tomita. of the Mission, announced
that full details will be made public
later.
The grant to the japanese will
complicate the situation in Colombia,
which is already rather critical due
TO the warning British and American
oil interests in that country, it is
pointed out. Thus far, there have
been two legislative rulings against
the United States interests, the first
being the cancellation of the Barco
Oil Concessions and the other the
more recently expressed intention of
the Colombian government to cancel
the Tropical Oil Company conces-
sion, which is held by the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey.
The introduction Of Japanese in
terests, so near the United States
and practically in its domain will
certainly not better the relations be-
tween the two powers.

British and L. S. Oil Interests Declare Open War on the Sov Unione
REFORMISTS IN
GERMANY IGNORE
GOVT AMNESTY
Released Prisoners are
Watched

BERLIN, (By MaiD As is gen
orally known, the German Reichstag
has adopted an amnesty releasing
most of the political prisoners and
expressly erasing the record of their
Grimes" from the records. So much
for the German parliament which,
according to the constitution is su-
preme.
The Prussian police have other
ideas about the matter. On the 4th
of September a German worker
named Schaible who had been re-
leased under the said amnesty found
an invitation to visit the local police
in his district in Berlin. He did so.
and was astonished to find himself
the following questions: Where
have you been during the last three
years? Are you living respectfully
in Berlin? How are you earning
your living in Berlin? There were
numerous sother questions.
Still Convicts.
Schaible was born in Hamburg
which is Free Town and does not
belong to Prussia, and the police
threatened that unless he behaved
himself he would be expelled from
Prussia! Such things are still pos
sible in Germany in the twentieth
century, after the war and after the
revolution. Schaible refused to an
swer any of the questions.
Similar cases have occurred in
Berlin. Kurt Grossmann, another
proletarian political prisoner re-
leased under the amnesty was placed
by the police under the supervision
of the Association for the Uplift-
ing of Released Prisoners" Gross
man rejected the attentions of the
association and of the police with
the greatest energy and determine
ton.
The fact is that these activities of
the Prussian police represent de-
liberate flouting of the Reichs tag
which expressly provided that all
amnestied persons should have all
records of cases destroyed. They
cannot therefore be treated as con-
victed persons. Interesting is the
fact that the Berlin police president
who is directly responsible for this
petty and illegal tyranny is the So
cial-democrat, Zoergiebel.

(Bu Worker Correspondent
MONTREAL, Can, Oct. 3.-The
Indian workers are to receive some
more benefits of British Imperialism.
They are to have a trades bill
similar to the one conferred upon
the British workers.
In this case there is to be equal
ity" for both countries. 1t is the
best sign of the carrying out in life
of the principles of the British Com
monwealth of Nations.
In these stirring times in India,
when strikes are so frequently TAX
ing place, when the workers are or
ganizing into militant unions, as
the textile and railway strikes have
shown, this bill will curb the unions
and fetter the workers for strike
action.
The government in India has
drawn up trades disputes bill
based on sections of the British
trade union legislation, establishing
courts of inquiry composed of dis
interested" persons to investigate
disputes, and also joint Cancellation
boards with power to impose penal
ties for stoppage of work by en-
ployes of public service utilities.
Penalties may also be imposed
on persons fostering strikes and
lockouts to coerce the government,
or having any object other than the
furtherance of the trade dispute
within the industry in which the dis
putants are directly engaged.

DETERDING, FOE.
OF USSR, OPENS
ISLANDER DRIVE
Soviet Oil Syndicate
Voids Old Claims

LONDON, Oct. "a conference
Of British and American oil interests
here has resulted in the mom.ntary
burying of the hatchet between
these two oil giants for a common
war against the Soviet Oil Syndicate
which will probably be accompanied,
as in the past, with campaign
against the Soviet Government.
1t was learned yesterday that the
two powerful British oil concerns,
the Anglo-P Persian Oil Company and
the Royal Dutch Shell together with
the Anglo-American Oil Company
placed a Joint demand before the
Russian Oil Products Company,
representative of the Soviet Oil
Syndicate in Great Britain, guaran-
teeing small part of the market in
exchange for a discount of per
cent on all Russian sales which was
to go towards paying the ex-owners
of the Soviet oil fields. This the,
Soviet Oil Syndicate refuses to do,
declaring that all claims became null
and void when the lands were ap-
propriated by the Soviet Govern
ment.
Deterding Vicious.
Following this conference and the
rejection of the British proposals,
the British foes of the Soviet Oil
Company are considering more dras-
tic methods to be employed against
the Soviet, according to the ihfor-
nation available.
The chief foe of the Soviet Gov
eminent oil syndicate in the past,
the Royal Dutch Shell headed by Sir
Henri Deterding, who has carried
on widespread publicity campaign
against the Soviet Government with
ergies into the anti-Soviet campaign
lead the campaign now, but in
more drastic form.
Fighting U. S. S. R.
Deterding has thrown all his en-
erges into the anti-Soviet campaign
and has done much in the way of
ousting the representatives of the
Soviet G overnment from England
and breaking Anglo Russian rela-
tions, at the same time buying the
"stolen oil"
Should his direct campaign
against the Soviet Union fail it is
understood that Deterding will try
to obtain government ban against
Soviet products for the purpose of
Safeguarding" British industry.

"In the name of the International
for the Struggle against the Third

you and congratulate you for the
words which you spoke yesterday
concerning the Soviet ornaments
and the preparations of the Soviet
government for civil war through
I its embassies, its economic delega-
tions and international organiza-
tions and its alter ego, the Commu-
mist International. You 'have de-
nounced the lies of Moscow and in
consequence you deserve thanks for
tearing away the hypocritical veil
which covered the League of Ma
tons in the disarmament question.
eve are very glad, not only be-
cause of the struggle which we have
undertaken, but also because an ex-
act realization of political realities
is a condition sine qua non for the
existence of the League of Nations,
Previously the League of Nations
has tended upon the solution of this
problem. Without Russia courts of
arbitration, security and disarma-
ment are impossible, but even with
the Soviets, these things cannot be
realized.
The fundamental problem of
peace can only be solved when the
Soviet government, whose avowed
aim is to destroy the constitutional
institutions of other nations by civil
war, is replaced by some other gov
eminent which respects information
al law. This problem, which is the
most important problem of the
present time, must sooner or later
be dealt with by the League of Ma
tions, and the sooner the better, as
otherwise it's policy of peace is
doomed finally to fruitlessness.
Zone of the tasks of the Interna-
tional for the Struggle against the
Third International is to denounce
the Soviet lies, and this has been
done in various documents, in the
memorandum which was issued in
December, 1926, to all governments
and in the pamphlet, "The Soviet
Union and Disarmament" copy of
which | permit myself to- enclose.
