on June list, at Cleveland, the
growth of the influence Of the Com
munist Party of America, the inten-
sified activities of the Young Work
ers Communist League among the
armed forces Of the bourgeois gov
eminent, the campaign to reach the
Negro masses with the Communist
message, etc.-are signs of the rad
icalization process going on in the
working class of America, of the
awakening of the American labor
movement, of the development of
the will to fight, on the part of the
unskilled and semi-skilled workers.
The "Open Letter" of the Com
munist International to its Amer
lean section, The Communist Party
of America, is timely call for the
revolutionary proletariat to close
their ranks, to unity their forces
for the coming battles. Only solid
ly united Communist Party can
meet the challenge of the ruling
class and their lackeys from the
American Federation of Labor and
the yellow socialist party.
On this day of class solidarity we
pledge ourselves to carry on our
revolutionary tasks in the future
with greater vigor, and stronger de-
termination.
The Communist International,
which celebrates its tenth annivers-
airy, is our guide. The Communist
Party of America, section of the
Communist International, is the
leader of the awakening labor move
ment Of this country.
The future belongs to us, to the
workers of the world. Communism
must win over capitalism. Already
today one-sixth of the earth is
marching forward under the banner
of the Communist International to
a brighter, better, happier life.
Capitalism is doomed. The ugly
head of bloody fascism will be
crushed by the Communist batallions
of the world. IN all corners of the
earth, on all continents, among all
races of the exploited and oppressed,
hundreds of thousands of red fight
ers are today pledging their all for
the victory of Communism over cap
italism.
We greet the revolving workers
and peasants of India. We hail the
struggle of the masses of Africa
and Australia. We extend our revolu-
tionary hand to the workers and
peasants of Latin America. We hail
the courageous fight of the Com
munists of Europe against the
treacherous social democracy. We
rejoice at the success of socialist
construction in the Soviet Union.
We send our greetings to the tens
of thousands of our comrades, the
victims of fascism and reaction,
languishing in the capitalist dung
cons Of the bourgeois. countries. We
bow our heads before the graves of
the countless victims of the murder
Gus Nationalist Government of
China. We pledge ourselves to the
relentless fight for the release of
political prisoners in America.
On this day of class solidarity we
join with the revolutionary proletar-
lat of all countries in one mighty
cry:
Long live the First of May-the
day of class struggle and class solid
arity!
Down with industrial peace, with
the bourgeoisie! Long live the re-
volutionary class struggle!
Down with the treacherous Social
Democracy!
Down with imperialist war!
All to the defense of the Soviet
Union!
Long live the new militant labor
movement of America!
Long live the Communist Party
of America!
Long live the Communist Inter
national! ~ 49, = ,-ss----ssl w
