Y. WORKERS RALLY AGAINST l. s. WAR NOTE TONIGHT!
Respond Now to the
Emergency Fund Appeal

The first days response to the appeal for the Emer
gency Fund of the Communist Party has shown that many
workers already awake to the great opportunities for
organization and struggle Thousands of workers only
awaiting the opportunity TO help to join in this work
For example, a Party worker in Brooklyn writes:
please help you (sorry
offer mOre) with your wonderful work"
We must have ten thousand such letters this. And
there ten thousand workers and sympahzers to the
Party who be reached for such donations And there
several hundreds who make donations reaching into the
hundreds of dollars.
All such potential support must be reached and the sup
port actually be realized in dollars to be used in the
class struggle.
Current events emphasize the importance of
giving the whole movement big special push forward just
this time The Intervention of StimSOn to the
peaceful settlement under way Manura shows the grow
ing sharpness of danger of mpeas against the Soviet
nion. The growing economic crisis with its attendant
employment is brewing great battles of the workers.

SUPPORT USSR!
FIGHT WAR NOTE!
Rally Workers at NY
Communist Mass Meet

Tonight at 8 p. m. at Central
Opera House, 9th st. and Third
Ave, thousands of workers will
gather under the auspices of the
Communist Party in demonstration
against the policy of the U. S. gov
ernment which is leading the marck
of international capitalism against
the Soviet Union.
The Chinese Workers Alliance, in
statement issued today denounced
the cliques of war lords of Nanking
and Mukden who allied themselves
with world imperialism against the
Chinese workers and peasants and
their friend, the Soviet Union.
Earlier in the day a group of rich
Chinese in this country who are stu
dents of Columbia University, and
who are supported through the ex-
ploitation of millions of starving
workers and peasants of China is
sued statement in defense of the
nationalist butchers. This aggrega-
tion which styles itself the Chinese
Students Patriotic League are all
sons of landlords. The Chinese
Workers Alliance and the members
of the Chinese section of the Anal
gamated Food Workers denounced
these patriots" as part of the
same clique which betrayed the
masses into the hands of American,
British and Japanese imperialism"
James Mo and N. Doonping will ex-
press the will of Chinese masses at
tonight's meeting. Other speakers
will be M. J. Olgin, Robert Minor,
j. Amter, Gil Green, and Otto Huis-
wood.
Reports coming from other coun-
tries all reflect the rising tide Of
sentiment of all workers against the
imperialist acts of the U. S. govern
ment and for the defense of the
Soviet Union. News of clashes in
Poland, France and Germany be-
tween workers and police reflect the
fact that the workers of the world
are becoming aroused to the gravity
of the situation. The meeting in
Central Opera House will mark the
beginning of new struggles of the
American workers against the policy
of its expressing government and
for the defense of the Soviet Union.

Hoover's message to the grand fas-

Hoover gloated over the fact that

use their utmost influence to allay
labor conflict, but would also coop

The imperialist president gave the
400 leading bosses a free field for

He informed the heads of the
gigantic scab corporations that "this
