There was a mine closed down here
last night for ten days or two weeks.
The notice says tho company can't
compete with the rest Of the mines
on the market. This is a stall to
put over another wage reduction
on the miners. The men asked for
transfer cards to work at some
other mine and the company
wouldn't give them any, saying they
did not recognize them as union
men since they didn't send dues to
the U. NJ. w. A.
The miners here are coming into

now in the last two weeks, and We

selected by American imperialists

AIDES "a bit unusual instruments for
bandits" to use), firing into the
native house occupied by marines.
The marines tried to return the
fire, but their machine gun "failed
to work." reports say, so the in
vaders of Nicaragua had to run for
their lives, leaving three dead, with
two wounded, and their entire equip
ment of a machine gun, several
rifles and ammunition in the hands
of the Nicaraguan independence
fighters.
The marines in that section went
on a punitive expedition, but the
Nicaraguans had disappeared into
the mountains. However, the whole
incident gives the lie to the hypo-
critical statement of the American
State Department that Nicaragua"
wants the marines to remain in oc-
cupation of the country.

message. "This movement of chain

The entire message is an effort

When you walk up the street all
you can hear is dissatisfaction
among the miners, and they have
reason for it, too.
You can't see the takers around
the mines and streets any more.
They are just like the rats-gone
into their holes to keep the miners
from seeing them.
So I ask the miners: Are you
ever going to wake up? Are you
going to let these takers drive you
down into the mire or are you going
to stand up and struggle like real
men?
Let's get our shoulders to the

holding out against pressure, and
coldly rejecting any proposal that
would smell of allowing the United
States to enter the Manchurian dis
pute as a pretended neutral and
impartial" arbiter. In fact Japa-
nese sources express distinct annoy
ance with the action of the United
States in sending a mote" to China
and the Soviet Union about such a
purely japanese" question as Man
churia.
The world is accustomed to
American imperialist hypocrisy, but
Stimson's action, admittedly meant
to do even more than prevent the
settlement of the dispute as brought
out in inspired stories in the capital
list press to the effect that it's sig
nificance "goes far beyond the con-
troversy," indicates the hostile des-
peration with which the United
States is now imbued in forcing its
way back into leading position in
the Far East, regardless of and
even welcoming the issue of war.
Unprecedented Hypocrisy.
The almost unparalleled double
dealing, even in the worst of I'M
perialist diplomacy, with which
America has acted, in melting China
to seize the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way in collaborating with Chinese
militarists and Russian white guards
to invade the Soviet territory re-
peatedly since July, and to remain
deaf, dumb and blind to these vio-
lations of the Kellogg Pact, only
to act with hostility toward the
Soviet Union after the Red Army
had punished these invasions in kind,
is a new monument to American
chicanery.
But even this is eclipsed by the
United States, causing its Marking
lackeys to simultaneously start
peace negotiations through Mukden
and repudiate such negotiations at
the same time. To cover up this
dirty piece of crookedness, G. L.
Wang, Marking foreign minister, is
made to jump through the hoop by
taking the blame on himself and re-
signing. Of course, he can be I'm
duced' next week to reconsider his
resignation and thus ''save face" for
his American masters without ma
terial loss.
Germany, with the best will to
comply with American demands for
an imperialist united front against
the Soviet Union, is reported en-
barrassed by it's role as mediary in
diplomatic correspondence going on
between China and the Soviet.
America, scheming out way to
send the Soviet Union war threat
without recognizing the Soviet Gov
eminent, lodged the issue by, first
ly, declining to call the note a
NOTE" but only Statement" and
even sending it without signing it!
Stimson maintains a clam-like 81
lence on Japanese rejection of his
proposal, while busily bringing all
pressure possible to bear on Japan
& to consent to joint armed interven-
ton, in which America hopes to
push Japan out of it's dominating
position in Manchuria. If it can
gain Japanese consent to interven-
tion--and possibly even if Japan re-
fuses-America, it is declared quite
openly here, will turn the London
naval conference" into a council
of war on the Soviet Union.
