Thru Center
MASS Org animation"
Resolution Passed at
Big Demonstration

In a parade which made its way
thru the center of Harlem, witnessed
and cheered by tens of thousands of
Negro workers, and in mass dem
onstration at the end of the line of
march in Brooks Square, white and
Negro tenants of Harlem, in a mass
voice demanded an end of rent rob-
berry and expressed their determin-
alton to continue the organization of
tenants, under the leadership of the
working class Harlem Tenants
League, which by it's mass power
will be able to refuse to pay rent
raises and procure wholesome living
conditions for workers.
In this first of tenants parades
in Harlem, which is but the begin
ming of a series, could be seen the
growing power of the Harlem Ten
ants League, and the growing re-
spouse to the Communist Party
housing slogans which have been
advanced for the municipal elections.

carried by the paraders, in their
march starting from 126th st. and
Fifth Avenue, and awakening en-
thusiastic response all along the line
especially in the worst housing sec
tions. The parade was greeted with
cheers, and all along the line of
march many Negro workers joined
in.
Especially along Fifth Avenue,
where are to be found some of the
most inhabitable tenements in Har-
lem, was the parade swelled in an
swer to the large banner carried in
front, which read: protest Parade

JERSEY CITY, N. J., June g
While scenes Of tragedy marked the

Whitewashing Begins.
The whitewashing of the power

as the compressed air workers are
known, and predicted by the Daily

These demands are: for lifetime
support of the dependents of the

Feng, Chang Await
Result of Intrigues

MOSCOW, U. S. s. R., June g.
Following closely Pravda's denun-
citation of Feng Yu-hsiang as a
tool of Anglo-Japanese imperial
ism, the Soviet Government today
warned Chang Kai-shek, the tool
of American imperialism, that its
patience with his provocative acts
is being exhausted and that it will
be necessary for the U.S.S.R. to
sharply assert itself should he
continue to carry on as he has
been.
The warning was the result of
a whole series of prOvocations car
ried through by Chang at the in
stigation of his American advis-
ors, which eliminated in. the raids
on the Soviet embassies in North
ern Manchuria, along the Chinese
eastern Railway, which is partly
owned by the U.S.S.R. The U.S.S.
r. is also provoked by the misuse
of the Marking embassy in Mos

travel in China are often forced to
get recommendations" from the
representatives of American trad
ing corporations in the U.S.S.R.,
before the Marking embassy will
issue visas.

supports the governments de-
nunciation of Chang Kai-Shek.

MACDONALD HAS
SMOKE SCREEN
READY FOR WAR
Follows Hoover Tactic
of Fake Naval Cut
Invitations
Baldwin May Hang On
Wealthy Nobility Hold
Lavish Orgies

LONDON, June 2.-Tonight the
reports of all but a handful of the
voting districts show that the Mac
Donald "labor" party is in position
to either form a government with
the consent of the liberals, to form
a coalition government with the lib
erals, or to force a new election.
1t has the largest representation in
parliament, but it does not have a
majority.
The vote is roughly, tories, $685.
900; labor party, 8,383,000; liberals
$4,000, Communists $4,000, and
others about 100000. The Commu-
mist vote represents the first cleo
ton campaign on a national scale
the party has conducted, and with
only 26 candidates. The voting
strength in the house of commons,
as reported with 9 districts yet to
come, is labor, 287; conservative,
253; liberals 81, and others 8. No
Communists were elected.
A Disguise for War.
Interest in every capital in the
world centers n the effect of the
probable Macdonald ministry on the
clearly seen approaching imperialist
war between the U. S. and Great
Britain, with many other countries
dragged in.
MacDonald's statements through
out the campaign, the reputation
by Philip Snowden Qabor partly of
the debt arrangement with the U. S.,
because "the Baldwin debt policy
does not leave England free to force
France and other countries to repay
if the U. S. permits easier terms to
England" and MacDonald's history
of navalism and empire building
during his former brief regime, in
dicate that the chiefs of the labor
party understand very we'll their po-
sition. Their work, the thing that
every patriotic Britisher expects of
them, is to provide ammunition for
the diplomats, bidding for neutral
support and more allies, by smoke
screen of pacifist illusions, coupled
with hypocritical announcements
about limitation of naval arma-
ments, and the usual procession of
disarmament meetings" at which
the various governments discover
more causes for war, and attempt
each of them, to throw the blame
for provoking the war on the other
country.
Follows Hoover Line.
Macdonald has already begun to
justify the criticism of the Commu-
mist Party of Great Britain, that he
will build a facade of peaceful en-
deavors" behind which the war ma
chinery can operate full blast.
Partly in answer to Hoover's
memorial day speech, which took ex-
actly the same line and used exact
ly the camouflage that the British
labor party leaders have become ex-
pert in using, Macdonald has signi-
fled that he is ready for another
naval limitations conference.
In order to get started as rapidly
as possible on his task as advocate
for British finance imperialism,

Local Unions, Workers
Groups Send Funds

GASTONIA, N. c., June lied
by the Gastonia local of the Ma
tional Textile Workers. Union, a
mass picket demonstration was held
in front of the Loray mill yesterday
by the striking textile workers who
distributed hundreds of leaflets to
the scabs. The leaflets describe the
plans of the Manville-Jenckes Co.,
owners of the Loray mill to organ
ize company union in the plant.
They end by appealing to the scabs
to join the strike and fight shoulder
to shoulder with the striking work
ers for more wages, less hours and
abolition of the speed-up system and
other demands of the National Tex
tile Workers Union.
Horace Lloyd, one of the pickets
handed a leaflet to a scab who took
it with him into the mill. A short
time later, the scab came outside
with an overseer, who jumped on
Lloyd and started to beat him. In
spite of the fact that Lloyd is a
small fellow, he defended himself
so well that the mill owners flunky
will not attempt to get rough with
any strikers again. Although Lloyd
was attacked by the overseer, he
was arrested, while the straw boss
was not molested by the police.
The Workers International Relief
brought Lloyd food in Jail, also a
message of solidarity from the othec
strikers. "He did not get me-" said
Lloyd when interviewed in jail, "un-
I'll I had distributed all my leaflets"
Lloyd, who is 20 years of age, has
been worker all his life. Although
he has been picketing regularly
since the beginning of the strike,
this is the first time he has been ar
rested.
A large distribution of clothing
and shoes took place today at the
". I. r. relief distribution center.
The workers guard, who watch the
w. I. R. tent colony "a hours day
to prevent an attack by the agents
of the mill owners, were given first
choice in the shoes. There were not
enough shoes to go around. The W..
