the request Of the lackey of Amer
lean Imperialism, who is at present
at Re head of the Cuban govern
ment.
Mella, the fighter for the liberia
ton of the Cuban proletariat, was
aware of the fact that at a given
moment he would fall by criminal
act of capitalism, but this was one
more reason for him to intensity
his struggle against imperialism
and its lackeys.
1t should not surprise us that
Mella was assassinated in Mexico.
He would have been assassinated in
Cuba or in any other Latin Amer
lean country had he been there, be-
cause all these countries are being
controlled by the same power
Wall Street, whose enemy Mella
was. There is no doubt that the
government of Mexico is equally
responsible for the premeditated
murder.
Mella was the leader of the work
ing class of Cuba. He was the Sec
rotary of the Political Refugees of
Cuba and was carrying on strug-
gle against the bloody beast who op-
presses and massacres the proletar-
lat OF Cuba, and against the dollar
magnates, who are the actual mas
tiers of the governments of Latin
America.
American imperialism is prepar-
ing new crimes in Latin America
for it is determined to completely
dominate it. American imperialism
is determined to eliminate the lead
ers of the anti-imperialist move
ments, and especially the Commu-
nists.
Meila was not the first one to fall
victim to Wall Streets assassins.
The crimes committed during the re-
cent banana strike in Colombia are
still fresh in our minds. We do not
and cannot forget the massacres
conducted by American imperialism
with It's interventions in Cuba, Mica
ragua, Haiti, Cento Domingo, Mex
leo, Panama, etc.
Mella will not be the last one to
fall, unless the proletariat of Latin
America will prevent it, as the i'm
perlallsts of Wall Street will not
tolerate any obstacle in the way of
the exploitation of the workers.
Wall Street is preparing to inten-
sify its aggressiveness and to more
ruthlessly exploit the workers and
peasants of Latin America. This is
the lesson that we must derive from
the murder of Mella.
The proletariat must answer to
these crimes by united action with
the workers and poor farmers of the
United States by intensifying it's
struggle against the bourgeois die
tatorships and against American i'm
perialism, which is responsible for
these relationships of Latin Amer
lea. 1t is only after this united ac-
ton that imperialism and it's lackeys
will have to account to the prole-
tariat for the thousands of murders
of Mellas committed every year.
1t is necessary. for all workers
to understand the necessity of or
ganizing themselves by joining the
Workers (Communist) Party, the
Party of the exploited masses, the
only Party that carries on the strug-
gle against imperialism.
Down with the murderers, imperi-
Ialists of Wall Street!
Down with the bloody dictatorship
of the criminal Machado!
Down with all imperialist dicta-
torships and their lackeys!
