TRY TO SUPPRESS
AUGUST | MEETS
in SWITZERLAND
Prohibit All Mass
Demonstrations

BASLE, July 24.-The govern
ment of the Canton of Freiburg
(Switzerland) whose President Per-
rier made a violent attack upon
the Communists in the Swiss Fed
eral Parliament in connection with
the debate on the Anti-War day of
the Communists on August list, has
issued a decree declaring that "the
Red Flag is the symbol and the
rallying point of the revolution"
and prohibiting all revolutionary
demonstrations on the streets and
all open air meetings, and every dis
play of red flags throughout the
Canton.
Leaflets and other publications
containing "seditious matter" are
also prohibited. All such publica-
tions will be confiscated. This de-
cree represents the first cantonal
action against the anti-war demon
strations on the LIST of August. The
Swiss press has been carrying on
violent campaign against the anti
fascist demonstrations for weeks,
particularly in the Canton of Tessin
where the fascist arms were torn
down from the fascist headquarters
a little while ago. The representa-
tive of Mussolini in Berne then
made provocative speech in which
he threatened reprisals unless "the
hunt upon fascists in Switzerland"
came to an end.

EXPECT BULCAR
GENERAL STRIKE
Big Textile, Tobacco
Struggles Now On

SOFIA, Bulgaria, July 24.-The
slogan of the Independent Trade
Unions of Bulgaria to extend the
strike front throughout the whole
country and effect all factories, is
being more and more successful.
The strikes are particularly ener-
getic in the textile center of Sliven
where 1000 textile workers, $50
embroidery workers, 40 shoemakers,
800 tobacco workers and various
other categories of workers are on
strike. A general strike will prob
ably take place.
Reports from all the larger towns
like Warna, Jambol, Burgas, etc.,
show that the workers are in fer
ment.
Strikes are threatening every
where. The strike movement is
also growing in Sofia. Particularly
interesting was the "a hour protest
strike of the shoemakers in support
of the struggle of the tobacco
workers for an unconditional am
nesty and against the terror. All
strike meetings protest against the
fake amnesty announced by the
government. The mass pressure of
the strikes has already had cer-
tain effect and the authorities are
planning to extend the amnesty to
greater number of prisoners than
originally intended. There is an
actual if not formal state of siege
in all larger towns. Meetings are
prohibited, that is to say, strikers
may not appear on the streets more
than two together.

LONDON, July 24.-Lord Lloyd,
who has been high commissioner of
Egypt since 1925, "has acceded" to
the "labor" governments demand
that he resign, Foreign Minister
Arthur Henderson told the House
of Commons today.
The resignation implies more
stringent policy will be followed by
the "labor" government toward
Egypt.

since 1925, and as governor of Bonn
bay from 1918 to 1923, and the
Sudan, Lord Lloyd became motor
ious for his repressive policies.

SERB Fascist
KILL IN SECRET
Shoots 2 Communists
in Ditch

VIENNA, July 24.-The Vienna
"Rote Fahne" publishes a report of
the commander of the gendarmerie
post in Beutschach concerning the
murder of the two Communists,
Jackovitch and Hekimovitch, on the
Austro- Yugoslavian border. The re-
port shows that the Jugoslavian
gendarmes led their prisoners into
the trench along the frontier al
though no path leads this way, and
despite the fact that this was point
ed out to them by people living on
the frontier. Shortly afterwards
these people heard three or four
shots and a few days later the
bodies of the two murdered men
were found in the frontier stream.
Concerning the finding of the
two bodies, the report states: ''The
frontier is formed by a stream
which flows through a deep and al
most impossible cutting. Ten me-
tiers away from the frontier stone
lay the two bodies, about twelve
meters away from each other, on
the other side of the stream, i. e.,
upon Jugoslavian territory. Oppo-
site the bodies, on the Austrian side
of the frontier, was a large pool
of blood. Undoubtedly one of the
bodies lay here, for some time, and
was then dragged through the
stream to the Jugoslavian side of
the frontier"

FRANKFORT-ON -THE-M A I N,
Germany, July 24.-The third ses-
sion of the League Against Imper-
ialism opened yesterday with dis
cussion of Pollitt's report. Lind
hagen opened the discussion, speak
ing for the Swedish Peace Society.
Ledebour, from Germany, spoke
against Lindhagen;s pacifism and in
favor of self-determination, even for
the South Tyrol and Saar districts.
Delight of the Anti-Militarist
League and Helene Stocker Of Ger
many also spoke.
The Political Commission elected
IS members, including Muenzen-
berg, Melnitschansky, Maxton, Ford,
Noli and Katayama.
The discussion continued. VIM
koop of Holland defended his Party's
colonial policy. Hitler of the Revo-
lutionary Pacifists of Germany said
his organization recognizes the
Leagues aims. Huan Ping, of the
Chinese Trade Unions, attacked the
independent labor party of Eng
land. He said Maxton must stand
either for or against the indepen-
dent labor party. Fan Noli, from
Albania, discussed the role Of the
Balkans in imperialist policy. Mig
lioli, representing the Catholic pea.
SAINTS Of Italy, described the role of
Italian fascism in the Balkans,
North Africa and China, Sachia-
nova, from the Soviet Union Trade
Unions, stressed the necessity of the
anti-war campaign and of the
Leagues work for Aug. 1. Ben
Marsh, representing the left bour-
geois anti-imperialists of the United
States, proposed that the action pro-
gram of the League should include
free trade. Wages should be raised
to the highest level of the United
States. This could be brought about
by treaties between the states.

land, complained that Pollitt and

Arrests Communists Paris Attempts Crush August Demonstrate

PLANNING GREATER
RED DAY MEETS
May Send 95 to Fort

PARIS, July 24.-Following the
arrest of 95 Communists in Paris
Sunday brutal repressions, designed
IS am attempt to crush in advance
the agreat demonstrations planned
Tor International Red Day, August
1, We're today begun by the Paris
chief of police.
After a night filled with arrests
and smishandlings of Communist
leadersG another contingent of police
left the police prefecture early this
morning, arrested secretary-general
Dudillapx of the General Confedera-
ton of Workers, raided the offices
of the Paris branch of the Interna-
tonaIr Red Aid, and continued ar
resting workers all thru the day.
Following a raid on the head
quarters of the Young Communist
League, during which furniture was
smashed and literature confiscated,
the police announced that many ere
volvers'i had been found in the
League offices. The beginning of
an attempt at a frameup is seen in
this plant.
Warrants were issued for many
wo~kingclass leaders, including
Secretary-General Gayman of L'Hu-
mantle; the French Communist
daily, Secretary Mauvais of the
Metal Workers Union, Berlioz, direc-
tor of Humanite, Municipal Counsel
lor Havex of Ivry, one of the Red
suburbs surrounding Paris, d
Mayor Marianne, of Ivry.
The Garde Republican, the ma
tional police, has been especially
concentrated in the suburbs, sur
rounding the city, which are all con-
trolled by the Communist workers.
Following long conference today,
leading police officials announced
that the ninety-five Communists ar
rested in a raid on a meeting last
Sunday would be prosecuted upon
the charge of a revolutionary plot.
In the complaint the Communist
leaders are charged to have violated
rticle 81 of the penal code, which
provides the penalty of deportation
to a fortified prison for those guilty
Of seeking to destroy or change the
government or of melting citizens to
arm against the authorities"
The seriousness of these charges
makes of this event more than an
ordinary raid, such as has been d.
rected against Communists from time
ginning of campaign of terror
to time, and marks this as the be-
against the Communists.
Humanite states that the -repres-
sions by the Paris police will only
be the signal for greater demonstra-
tons. Plans, in which the many
trade unions are taking part, are
proceeding for the holding of the
greatest demonstration of working
class solidarity Paris has ever seen.

Guatemala Trade Unions
Ready for Big Struggles

colony OF the United States.
In 1928 the real trade movement
began with the formation of trade
unions that proclaim the necessity Of
class struggle by means of direct
action.
The First Great Strike.
In 1924 ten thousand peones Gun
skilled agricultural workers little
better than serfs) declared the first
strike against the United Fruit Com
pany in 81 of it's plantations. They
demanded a raise in wages, the eight
hour day and better living condi-
lions. This strike, which lasted for
27 days, was crushed by force Of
arms, as a consequence Of the lack Of
an organization that might have d.
rected the movement. "A great num-
Der of workers were killed or wound
ed, jailed and deported from the
country.
The same year, 1924, five thousand
railroad workers entered the strug-
gle in defense of similar demands.
The direct intervention Of the United
States Minister determined the dis
solution of the organization and,
with it, the complete failure of the
strike.
Imperialism went further. It de-
manded that the government decree
law prohibiting all strike move
ments and declaring leaders of such
movements responsible for crimes of
sedition and rebellion. Since then
the Railroad Workers Union has not
been able to be reorganized.
In 1925, 1900 bakers of the capt.
tai city and of other cities declared
a strike for a wage raise, no night
work and a betterment of working
conditions. 1t was the first success
full strike. Almost all points of the
strikers were accepted. The victory
was due to the fact that the baking
industry is not in the, hands of i'm
perialism, and, secondly, to the ex-
istence of strong and revolutions
airy trade union, "Sindicato de Pana-
deros," which directed the move
ment. However, many workers, both
of the said union and of other or
CARNATIONS that aided the strike,
were imprisoned and tortured.
Class Trade Unions Developing.
Toward the end of the same year
the organization of working men and
women made rapid advances. NJ
merous trade unions were formed
and began the struggle directly, by
means of strikes and other mass
movements. Among the most impor-
tant of these struggles were those of
the Coffee .Sorters (women), the
Soap Workers, Glass Workers and
Garment Workers (women), for the
putting into effect of the eight hour
law and for increased wages. These
strikes took on a clearly political
character, because the workers saw
themselves compelled to fight
against the government which, close
ly linked to the capitalists, adopted
severe repressive measures against
the proletariat.
In the last few years the organi-
cation of trade unions has attained
great progress, as may be seen by
the growing consolidation of the
Federation Regional de Trabaia-
dores de Guatemala" the national
center of class struggle unionism in
the country. Class consciousness is
growing ever stronger in the Qua
temalan proletariat.
