Fight Deportation
of Italian Workers

PARASITIC Communist Parties
of France and Italy have issued a
joint manifesto to the French and
Italian working masses, pointing out
that a reactionary offensive has be-
gun against the italian immigrant
workers. Hundreds of workers have
been prosecuted, driven out of their
employment, arrested and expelled
from France. All this under various
pretexts, the real reason being that
this persecution is an integral part
of the price French Imperialism is
prepared to pay Mussolini in order
to secure his alliance in a war
against the Soviet Union. This per-
secution is a sign of the growing
fascist danger for the workers and
peasants of Europe. The manifesto
appeals to the workers to form anti
fascist groups in all factories and to
fight for the rights of the immi-
grant foreign-born workers.

Mensheviks Worker With Imperialists to Start

Results of First Two Years of Five-Year Plan
Shows Workers Counter-Plan Won

and for the overturning of the Boil
sheviks' organizations, they relied
CHIEFLY on the rich kulaks, which is
the only politically and economically
active section.
"Izvestia," in an article on 1.-THE
WreckerS' Plans and Successes of
Soviet Energy in Production" raises
the question of why, despite the dew
ilish work of the wreckers, Socialist
construction and development of in
dustry goes ahead at rapid tempo.
The answer to this question is the in
creased production by the class-con-
scious masses under the leadership
of the Communist Party of the Sow
let Union. "Izvestia" writes: 1.-THE
counter-industria plans promoted by
the working masses in the struggle
for fulfilling the general Party line
neutralized the poisoned weapons Of
the wreckers.
This explains why in 1929 and 1896
we obtained 100000 tons of coal
more than in 1918, during the two
years of the Five-Year Plan, pro-
crossing from the seventh coal pro.
ducing country to the fourth; pro-
duction of electrical power increased
two-thirds in two years; production
of peat increased six to seven times
compared to 1913; oil is constantly
increasing every year now, far aheac
of the pre-war, by about 60 per cent
Hence, we can now indicate that thu
production of fuel in 1928 vii
equal 180,000,0O0 of compensated fue
instead of 100000 in 1929-3O, anc
100000 in the first variant of thu
