WORKERS MUST
DO WN TOOL S
ON AUGUST I!
Must Fight in Defense
of the U.S.S.R.

Fellow Workers: Now is the time
to prepare for the fight against I'M
perialist war and for the defense OF
the Soviet Union. The Social Demo-
Gratis and reformists that betrayed
the workers in the last war, are now
the best agents for the imperialists
prepare the coming war. The
\. F. of L. chiefs, the Hillquits,
rhomases, and the Mustes are all
part official and unofficial of the
capitalist war machinery. Their
support of the Kellogg peace pact
and the fake disarmament schemes
are all part of the war plans.
Fellow Workers: War is newt
able under capitalism. Only by
overthrowing capitclism can war be
prevented. Only by class war can
imperialist war be overcome. The
capitalist class, driven by the neces-
sity of obtaining new markets, and
to win greater profits, are doing
everything in their power to force
down the living standards of the
workers, and are raising the bloody
hand of white terror to carry
through their plans for war. That
is why they are beating down wages,
company unionizing the trade unions,
framing up workers, railroadlng
workers to the electric chair, in
creasing police brutality, invading
the rights and freedom of the work
ing class on all fronts. They are
doing everything possible to cast the
workers into chains and to break
the backbone of the revolutionary
movement. The i1perialists are es-
tablishing united front from the
Hoovers to the Greens, Wolls, Thom-
ases and Mustes to carry through
heir murderous designs to plunge
the working class into the shambles
of a new, world war.
Now is the time to act. The work.
ing class must not delay their united
front to fight imperialist war. The
workers must organize its weapons,
must show its will and deternlina-
ton to fight and defend its class
interests.
August list, the day set aside by
the revolutionary workers the world
over, is the day of mobilization
against imperialist war. 1t is the

low toilers in the farthest corners
