MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., July 20
Following the conclusion of Buk-
harms speech today, Schueller re-
ported on the activities of the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Young
Communist international. AS a re-
suit of the partial stabilization, ra-
tionalization and rehabilitation of
the working-class youth, Schueller
said, young workefs and appren-
tices must participate more actively
in the struggles of labor ard join
unions in thefspecial youth sections.
The main task of the Young Com
munist International should be CEN
tered in the anti-militarist struggle
and AGAINST the bourgeois attempts
to militarize the youth. During the
last few years, Schueller also re-
ported, the membership OF the
Young Communist international has
remained fairly stable and progress
sive, whereas the Socialist Youth
International has lost over one half
of its total membership.

Quis of Assassin Nears
End

MEXICO CITY. july 20 (UP)-
Police Investigation of the murder
Of General Aware Obreron. presi-
dent-elect Of Mexico, was near an
end tonight and the assassin. voung
Jose De Leon Toral, religious
fanatic, was being questioned prob
ably for the last time before his
execution.
In addition to Toral, ten others
have been arrested and are held for
investigation in connection with the
assassination, which it is officially
charged was due to catholic clergy
action.
Presumably the authorities hope
by public trial to definitely estab-
lish the fanatical character of Toral
and his alleged connection with
catholic clerical dissidents.
Chief of Police Rios Zertuche
blamed the catholic church for the
assassination.
"Police headquarters now is in a
position to make public the fact
that responsibility for the crime
rests with the catholic clergy" his
statement said.

Well Represented

At meeting arranged by the
Young Workers (Communist)
League of Brownsville in their
headquarters there were more than
100 persons present. Among these
was a large delegation of yipsels,
about 25 in number. The reason
for the turnout of the entire zip
sci membership in Brownsville was
the fact that Philip Frankfeld, act
ing district organizer of the League,
had been announced to speak on the
Fields case and the Young People's
Socialist League.
Frankfeld said in part. "The
Fields case, insofar as the League
is concerned, is an expression of the
etty-bourgeois degeneration of the
yipsels. We are not interested in
the Fields case for it's own sake.
The young Communists, however,
see in it a sign of the fact that the
young socialist movement has GER
tainly reached the bottom of the lad
der, when members of it's national
committee can in any way be con-
nected with such practices"
Frankfeld went on to say that the

perpetrators of the crime with which

SHANGHAI, China, July 20
Japanese imperialist troops fired on

The note made clear that the Japan

nese jurisdiction.
The Consul refused to receive the
note, but agreed to unofficially
transmit the terms to the Legation.
The spokesman for the Legation
said that Japan was willing to dis
cusS treaty revision When the Nank-
ing Nationalists showed an amicable
spirit. He considered the present ac-
ton to be discourteous.
He said that the Japanese intend
to maintain the attitude that the
treaty was not revised within the set

automatically renewed for another
term of ten years.

RELIEF BODY PLEDGES
SUPPORT TO MINERS

Unremitting support of the needy
miners notwithstanding the aban-
donment of the strike by the Lewis
machine was yesterday pledged by
the National Miners Relief Commit
tee IN a statement issued by Alfred
Wagenknecht, relief director of the
organization which has sent thou
sands of dollars into the fight and
has supplied hundreds of mine
families with tents and clothing in
order that they might continue their
struggle against the open shop
menace facing the industry.
THE need for relief and protec-
tion is even greater now than be-
fore" the statement declared.
Those who have fought in the front
ranks of the strike, those militant
rank and file leaders who were
clubbed by the police on picket lines
and suffered arrest, will be the first
to be victimized and black-listed by
the operators. These courageous
miners must not be allowed to
starve. Their children must be fed
Aid Is Urgent.
Although the officials of the
United Mine Workers of America
have instructed the districts to sign
separate agreements, the struggle
is not over. The Pittsburgh Coal
Company and the Pittsburgh Ter
minal Coal Company, two of the
largest coal trusts, and the Ohio
operators declare they will never
sign agreements with any union
This means that the fight against
open-shopdom is still on. While the
miners battle for union recognition.
they must receive the aid of all their
fellow workers in the cities SO that
they will not be starved into accept
ing open-shop conditions.
"The relief work must continue
Relief committees spread throughout
the country must not lessen their
activities. Hunger is more wide
spread than ever, and miners must
not be forced to accept conditions
from the operators which will mean
continued misery. Hundreds of
miners are still under arrest, and
must be defended"

Committee From All
Parts of Country

A committee of one hundred
prominent and active leaders in the
American labor movement of both
sexes comprise the National Elec-
tion Campaign Committee of the
Workers (Communist) Party, accord
ing to a statement issued last night
from the committees headquarters
at 43 East 125th St., New York City.
This committee-organized around
the national ticket of the Workers
(Communist) Party, with William
2. Foster and Benjamin Gitlow
carrying the Communist election
banner-hails from every state in
the union and is representative of
workers, farmers, women and
Negroes.
In making public the names of the
committee, the National Election
Campaign Committee statement de-
clares:
"Rallying around the election
campaign of the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party, headed by William z.
Foster and Benjamin Gitlow, are to
be found men and women who have
proven their loyalty to the working
class in the past by deeds as well as
by words.
Represents All Workers.
"The members of this committee
represent the best that the prole-
tariat of the United States has pro-
duced. They come from every part
of the country and represent the ex-
plotted in factory, on farm, the
doubly exploited Negroes, the per-
secuted foreign-born workers, and
the women whose special problems
are taken advantage of by the en-
ploying classes to work them at
starvation wages.
"This Committee of One Hundred
proletarians realize that only
through a revolution can the prob
lems that keep the working class in
perpetuaf struggle with poverty and
misery be eliminated and social
order built up that will give the pro-
ducer the fullest possible share of
the fruits of his toil-a social order
where the exploiter who lives on the
labor of others will be conspicuous
by his absence.
"Those men and women of the
working class see in the election
campaign an opportunity to rally
the masses for the struggle against
capitalism, to protest against the
crucifixion of the peoples of Latin
America by the imperialists of the
United States, and to help organize
into the Workers (Communist).

MOSCOW, July 20.-William 2.
Foster, member of the secretariat
of the Workers (Communist) Party
of America and member of the
Presidium of the Communist Inter
national, opened the third session of
the Sixth World Congress of the
Communist International this mr5rn-
ing.
Nikolai Bucharin. president of the
Communist international, continued
his speech begun at the second ses-
sion last night, in which he made
the report for the Executive Com
mittee Of the Comintern and pre-
sented the theses on the interna-
tional situation and the tasks of the
Communist Parties.
Seward Opens Second Session
The second session was opened by
Pierre Seward, secretary of the
French Communist Party.
Bucharin declared that a new
analysis of the world situation was
necessary. Since the war three peri.
DDS have been experienced, he said.
The first was the acutely revolution
ary period during which capitalism
sysss unstable and ended in sI923~with
the defeat of the German workers.
The second period was characterized
by the capitalist offensive and the
preparations for the capitalist sta
bilization. The second period also saw
the temporary end of the revolution
arv situation in Europe and the
transfer of the revolutionary wave
to the colonies.
Capitalist Reconstruction
The third period was the period
of capitalist reconstruction with
growth of the productive forces,
great technical progress and reor-
ganization of capitalism. Simul-
taneously the Soviet Union was ex-
periencine> a reconstruction period
during which it formed a new tech
MEAL industrial basis and reorgan~
lied industry.
Capitalist development, coupled
with the growth of antagonisms, is
now threatening war, he said. The
third capitalist period created new
world situation requiring new tao
tics. Capitalist development is tend
ing towards state capitalism and
trusts are becoming identified with
state organs.
New Outlook
Under these circumstances the
theory of the partial stabilization of
capitalism formulated at the Fifth
Congress has now a new sense. The
capitalist crisis remains and consists
in the fact that the structural altera-
tions of world economy intensity the
internal contradictions of capital
ism. The existence of the Soviet
Union, the Chinese revolution and
