New Assaults on Soviet Union

mOngerS against Jn6 Union Oh kOOCIdlISC oO-
Wet Republics RACES with increased fury. The
initiators and original signers of the hypo-
critical pact of Paris, heralded by the reptile
press as a document outlawing war, are
feverishly driving toward a new war on the
Soviet Union.
From the Berliner Tageblatt comes the re-
port that military alliance between Poland
and Rumania is nearing completion that has
as its objective an armed invasion of the So
Wet Union in an attempt to sever Soviet
Ukraine from the rest of the Soviet Union.
Pilsudski, premier of Poland, has just re-
turned from Roumania where he concluded
an agreement providing that in case of sue
cess of the military venture the northern
part of the Ukraine shall be annexed to
Poland and the southern part made buffer
state between Roumania and the U. 5. ). h.
The hand of the French bandit government
of Poncare and BRAND is also seen in the re-
cent visit of General Lenrod to the Bal
kans, where guarantees of French aid in the
invasion were promised.
Supplementing these conspiracies for ac
tual invasion is violent campaign that has
been raging in the capitalist press of the
world since the converting of the Sixth World
Congress of the Communist International
At that time the Pilsudski organ, the
"Polska Zbronia" assaulted Comrade Bulk
harms statement in reference to the short
comings of the Communist Party of Poland
in its fight against fascism. AS an excuse
for a continuation of the terror against the
Polish Communists and a bid for leadership
of an anti-Soviet bloc of border states Pill
sudski's sheet declared
"Bukharins statement will silence all who
have till now demanded the legislation of the
Polish Communists. The Communists are
enemies of their country. The most formda-
BILE opponent of the Communists is Pilsudski.
who will be able to rally all anti-Communists
to his folds
"Gazetta Poranna,' another Pilsudsh Or
gan (only Pilsudski papers are allowed to
exist in Poland) said that Poland has two
foes-the Communists at home and the U.
S. S. R. abroad, and that the latter is supply
ing the former with means and agitational
literature.
Simultaneously with this barrage against
the speech of Bukharin in the Polish press,
| the Paris Temps" screeched that Bolshevik
activity had recommended on the interna-
tional arena The French imperialist organ
charged that the Soviet government and the
Communist International are identical and
concluded with the warning:
Let the governments which want to avoid
anarchy and disorder be the lookout and
let them be firmly resolved to defend them
selves against the danger which threatens
them all alike.
Across the channel, the Daily Telegraph"
in London beloved forth the imperiallst
fury of John Bull at the speech of Bukharin,
and after the familiar provocatlons repeated
the discredited yarn that the Communist In
ternational is really part of the Soviet gov
eminent and warned Poland to be on guard.
At the same time this barrage was being
leveed against the Soviet Union, the Amer
lean financial expert to Poland, Charles S.
Dewey. held long conference in Berlin with
S. Parker Gilbert, American agent who is
enforcing the Dawes plan, on the prospects
of a similar financial scheme to aid Pilsud-
skis fascist dictatorship.
The anti-Soviet front was completed,
rounded out to embrace all the imperialists
and their agents, by the utterances Of the
leaders of the second international, meeting
! in Brussels, Belgium, who tried to conceal the
apgressiveness of the war-mongers of their
own countries by charging the Soviet Union
with being the one power that threatened the
peace of the world
Now comes the New York Tribune, organ
of the Mellon Coolidge Hoover administra-
ton, with the hysterical announcement that
the state department at Washington is in
possession of documents disclosing Soviet
interference" with the American armed
