How the us. Government Helps" Mexico

Mexico for the use of the Pores Gil government against the
present uprising and Mexican aviaors receiving
gency training by S. army officers in the handling of the
planes On the border the United States forces
operating with the Mexican federal troops the suppression
of the uprising
This that the present uprising is "rev
oution it is often called by the capitalist 1t
instruction of largely the character those
military outbreaks of several months Large sections of
the feuda arisocracy the catholic clergy supporting
the nsurrection which effort to history backward
and forward The uprising has marked fascist char
acter-whch is couner-revolutionary under all circum-
stances
The working class cannot support such movement, but
has every reason to fight and destroy it.
But is this reactonary uprising the only enemy?
And is the United States government helping Mexico?
On the contrary the result the whole of events
in regard to the apparently uprising in Mexico
the Tightening the hold of Yankee Imperialism that
republic The blame for such results lies upon the Pores
Gil government.
Conscious workers and peasants of Mexico must know
that there is not cannot be enemy of Mexico
than the mperast of the United States. On
one hand the feudaeal reaction raises its armed hand
against the On the other hand United States i'm
periasm moves in" the preext of helping Mexico.
Does anyone imagine that the costly munitions of war that
sending the southern republic sent with the
intention of helping the Mexican workers to struggle against
the yankee oil and mining concessonaires? Or to aid the
Mexican peasants to drive the yankee andhoders
It is impossible to ignore in this connection the struggle
going between the United States and Great Britain
on world scaehe two giant mperlast systems strug-
Cling for possession the major portion of the world for
colonial exploitation The United States is trying to make
Mexco-and all of Latin Amercaino outright colonial pos
under yankee rule and yankee savedrvng British
imperialism severely weakened in comparison holds on des
peratey its colonial possessions and its spheres OF nf
while the Wall Street empire with the most voracous
imperat appetite and virtually colonies Great
Britain all fronts and two mperat giants prepare for
the oncoming inevitable war.
Capitalist control of and of transmission
of permit much detail of fact to to public
knowledge respect the part that British imperialism is
playng in the events in Mexico today But the struggle be-
British and yankee Imperialism is the decisive factor
in the world Latin America whole of
sharp conflict between the two The existence of civil
between the yankeeensaved Mexican of Pores
Gil the hand fascstreactionary uprising the
other cannot but be connected with the struggle between
the Wall Street mperiasts and the British mperlallsts
Mexican workers and peasants cannot depend such
Mexican leaders they have had in Gales Obregn and the
present president Portes Gill Gil has proven himself weak
kneed Turnkey of yankee monares He takes his orders
Hoovers and Morgans ambassador Morrow
savhly than did Gales and Oregon The for this
is not to be found in varying personalities but in the class
basis of the present Mexican government The Mexican
public under government of the petty bourgeois
tive elements completely tied up their dependence upon the
big mperalist capitalism of the North 1t is absolutely i'm
possible for such to the independence
of Meconot to speak of the completing Of the Mexican
oluon of which the Obregonsas gby and hypocrcaly
speak.
The government of Portes Gil is itself to be blamed for
the present predcaent of Mexico has made itself weak
and savish for yankee Imperialism Instead of
fighting yankee Imperialism the most dangerous
of Mexico has licked the boots of Morrow and Hoover
has obeyed the commands of Washington in counterrevo
onary activity against the workers and peasants in the in
terests of yankee bankers and oil and mining concesonaes
In such situation it is inevitable that fascist revots arise
the who bound and gagged by socialist and
Crom leaders in the service of the peybourgeos
ment and the yankee finance-capitalists.
The tong Mexican must at last learn from the
repeated reactonay instructions of clerca feuda land
lords and fascist mtasts The Mexican workers and
ants must learn that they themselves the only possible
berators of Mexico The bourgeosdemocratc revelation of
Mexico cannot be carried through by the bourgeoe of
Mexcobu only by the armed workers and peasants spite
of the bourgeose in spite of the petbourgeois boocks
of Wall Street Messrs. Gales and Gil.
The armed struggle of the of workers and peas
ants alone put end to the chessgame of the United
States and British mperasts In this the hegemony of the
industrial working Glass; which implies the leadership of the
Communist Party, is Indispensable
