The following statement on the
Haitian revolt against United States
imperialism has been issued by the
American Negro Labor Congress:
The Negro people of Haiti are
again in revolt against the bloody
and brutal American imperialism
which in 1915, with the utmost cal
lousness. landed it's marines in the
then free and independent Black
Republic and introduced reign of
terror which drenched the land with
the blood of thousands of Haitian
workers and peasants who dared to
defend the Negroes claim to that
fright of self-determination" which
arch-hypocrite, Woodrow Wilson,
was at that time prattling about.
The Wall Street government,
which, but few days ago used the
fake Kellogg Peace Pact as a pre-
tense for attempting to wreck the
peace negotiations then proceeding
between Soviet Russia and the out
unanswered Chinese militarist tools
of British, Japanese and Ameri-

critical peace prattle while seeking

front against the First Workers
Republic; no longer indulging in
peace pretenses, is openly rushing
marines and cruisers to drown in
blood the revolt of the oppressed
Haitian masses, while at the same
time seeking to divert the expected
protests of the Negro masses of the
United States, and to afford the
Negro misleaders the means for an
other betrayal of the masses by talk
about appointing a commission to

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Yes-

This is part of the struggle that the

LONDON, Dec. 9.-Preparations

question in the House of Commons
today. Rumors of the declaration
of martial law by Chang kai-shek

SHANGHAI, Dec. 9.-With mill

was so serious that American
civilians were being removed
from Aux Cages, where the
battle took place the day be-
fore in which U. S. Marines
murdered five and wounded twenty
Haitian peasants. Like action was
taken by Russell with the Americans
at Jeremie.
Russell admits the sweep of the
movement in his report, which says:
"On the morning of Dec. 7,
crowd of about 1000 surrounded the
outpost building at ChanteI, yelling,
Down with Borno! Down with
Freeman" At Torbeck, near Aux
Cages, where there is another out
post, crowd estimated at 1000
gathered on the morning of Dec. 7,
and threatened to kill the corporal
of the Garde, who was alleged to
have telephoned into Aux Cages the
approach of the mob that descended
on Aux Cages on the afternoon of
Dec. 6.
"The crowd had been shouting,
Down with Borno! Down with
Freeman but had not attacked the
Garde. Directions have been issued
to call in the above two small out
posts to Aux Cages, in order to pre-
vent rushing the outpost at night
and the capture of rifles and am
munition."
Arrest Strikers.
1t is evident that the situation is
quiet only because the Haitian
masses have been disarmed, and not
because they have been treasured"
or have any faith in Hoover or his
white-washing Commission" as the
capitalist press infers.
In addition, it is admitted that ar
rests of "strike agitators" are tax
ing place at Port-au-Prince and at
Cape Haitien.
The "Borno" referred to is the
puppet president foisted on and
never elected by the Haitian people,
by power of the marines. 1t is evil
dent that the masses repudiate Bor-
no as tool of American imperial
ism. Some time back the United
States knew Borno would have TO
go, so the U. S. instructed him to
decline" another term, making sure
of course that another equally
servile lackey would be elected by
the national council" which Borno
appoints from among his family and
machine supporters. The Freeman"
mentioned is one of the swarm of
American advisers" who see that
the interests of the National City
Bank are taken care of and that the
Haitian workers and peasants are
held down during the robbery.

censorship in Haiti, is an example
