Revolution Gy0Ws 4 Years
After Shanghai Massacre

dictionary, now has become the
party of counter revolution and the
hangman of the Chinese masses. It's
power was built on sand and main
tanned only by most brutal white
terror, but with fundamental antag-
onisms among themselves and divid-
ed by the interests of rival U. S.,
British and japanese imperialisms
The Kuomintang military cliques are
fighting one another, which furthers
the imperialist exploitation and the
further impoverishment of the
Chinese masses.
The first Chinese revolution ended
with the temporary defeat of the
Chinese proletariat but the funda-
mental problems have not been even
slightly solved. On the contrary, it
gave rise inevitably to a new tide
of revolution. Despite the severe
white terror, even at the very feet
of Chang Kai Shek's territory,
Shanghai, the Chinese workers give
determined resistance. The total
number of strikers within ten
months of last year, in Shanghai
alone, is about 100000. The char
acter of strikes grew gradually from
purely defensive to aggressive coun-
ter-attack. Peasant Soviets still in
about fifty districts around the Dor
der of Human, Fukien, Kwangtung,
Kwangsi and Kiangsi provinces. Re-
cent reports show that they gained
additional territories in Fukien and
Kwangsi. Ano her revolutionary
wave is coming in which the Chinese
workers and peasants, led by the
experienced Communist Party of
China, will give final blow to i'm
perialism and native reaction and
further the cause of world revolu-
ton.
Indian Revolution.
Today when we commemorate the
Shanghai massacre, we should give
specific attention to events not only
in China, but in India also, where
fresh signs show the oncoming
gigantic anti-imperialist struggle.
Great strikes are taking place in
Bombay, Calcutta and other cities.
Peasant instructions are develop
ing. British imperialism uses ut
most power to crush the Indian rev.
olution. The leaders of the labor
unions and revolutionary organiza-
tons are in prison and many were
deported. Mass raids and massacres
are daily practiced.
But, workers, history gives the
character to the present colonial rev.
olutions, not of purely bourgeois
democratic revolution, but a part of
the proletarian world-Socialist rev.
olution. The interests of the Chinese
and Indian workers and peasants are
the same as yours. Their victory is
also yours. But their victory can be
assured only with the support of the
international proletariat, especially
of American workers, as U. S. i'm
perialism penetrates more and more
in the East and helps the native
reaction in crushing the revolution.
Demonstrate Solidarity.
Workers, today is the parade of
U. S. Imperialism. Today is also
the day of the general elections in
Great Britain, whose three parties,
conservative, liberal and labor fight
for control of the empire, which ever
wins today, will continue imperial
list exploitation of India and China.
Only the revolutionary workers
headed by the Communist Party of
Great Britain raised the determined
fight for the cause of the working
class and the oppressed peoples. To-
day we also hear of the raid on the
Soviet Russian consulate in Hardin
which is step for preparing the
imperialist armed attack against the
U.S.S.R. and to crush the rising
wave of the Chinese Revolution.
Therefore, workers, today you
must see that you and your fellow
workers should come to Chinatown
to demonstrate your solidarity with
the Chinese, Hindu, Japanese and
Philippine workers.
Demonstrate your international
solidarity!
Support the Chinese and Indian
Revolution!
Protest against the raid on the
Soviet consulate in Hardin!
Attend the Shanghai Massacre
Memorial Meeting!
Forward to the International So
cial Revolution!
