DISARMS MASSES
Press Lies Of " R e d
Invasion" Hit

Argentine reports that a "new
Red invasion" of Bolivia is Gloom
ing" is deliberately calculated to lie
about the independent revolutionary
movement of workers and peasants
who do not have to "invado" Bolivia,
as they are the majority Of the pop
ulation Of Bolivia.
This lie is built mp on the basis
Of rerort that Roberto Hinajosa,
leader Of p supposed rising Of peas
ants and workers near the Arger-
tine border, is with others now in
Argentina speaking to the masses
near the border.
The rcactionary character of the
military dictatorship now in power
at La Paz, the capital, is shown by
one of its first order being that
the workers, who had won the city
from the old dictator, Siles, without
the aid of the army, must turn in
all arms within AZ hours.
Also, the military dictatorship at
once notified the imperialist powers
that all the old debts loaned on Be-
livia by the imperialists, would be
recognized and paid. This means
that the workers and peasants will
be burdened by this robbery in the
future just as in the past.
The change is merely from Amer
lean imperialist hegemony to British
imperialist hegemony. Fearing
counter moves by U. S. Imperialism,
the military dictatorship has, ac-
cording to Victor Sanchez Pena.

ments are safe. The dictatorship

JOBLESS BRICKLAYER CALLS ON
BUILDING TRADES WORKERS TO FIGHT
Couldn't Get Work Thru Classified AID Section
Of Boss Papers

Who knows? The rising tide of
revolution may result in the free
dom of the workers in the near
future.
Bricklayers! Where are you?
Stick your heads up out of the
water and fight. You are not so
well contented that you can sit by
and say nothing. You are not as
secure as all that. You know damn
we'll the B. NJ. and P. I. U. will go
to pieces in the near future on the
rocks of favoritism and discrimina
ton as is the case of all A. F. of l..
organization. You know the labor
takers are selling out, boot, shoe.
socks and all. On every hand they
employ subtle methods to defeatus.
The so-called floater is played
against an imaginary home guard
in order to split our union. Stool
pigeons and favorites are getting
the few jobs that are left. We are
being hired and fired promiscuously
jusct to speed US up to the top
notch of human endurance.
When capitalism can no longer
pay US twelve and fourteen dollars
day which will be in lie near
future they will tell us very frank
ly. We will then be disorganized
and helpless. Worse still, we are
already in a company union.
L. start fighting now. Join
forces with other workers in the
Trade Union Unity League and the
Communi. Party, the only honest
and ~;1cere leadership Of the work
ers.
If all of us would fight for work
or wages the bosses would be damn
glad to do something quick.
And if we workers all understood
our relationships to the workers of
the Sow Union we would o~;~c
overnight as one man against i'm
perialist war threats against the
Soviet Union.
Long live the Soviet Union!

Editor Daily Worker:
Dear Editor:
] have been reader of the Daily
Worker for some two or three years
and appreciate it as being a paper
fashioned after my own notions.
Gosh! 1t is the fightingest paper
in the world, and for the working
class only.
Now / am asking for space for
just this one letter 1.-THE more the
better-Editor.l. am led to believe
that you accept whatever deals with
workers and their working and liv-
ing conditions.
The following notice is to be
found in the Cincinnati Enquirer,
Times, and Star of Cincinnati and
Cincinnati Post: Situations, Males,
one cent a word, fifteen cents
minimum price. This column is in
tended only for individuals seeking
employment"
Now / have been out OF work for
more than one year and during this
time l have been over the industrial
area of the United States. l had
just enough pennies to insert the
following advertisement three times
under the above mentioned classifi-
cation. Of course, any work that |
would get would have to be done
by the hour. "A bricklayer (25 years
experienced wants patch work, Chin
ney, garage or any kind"
Each paper informed me that my
ad would not be accepted. l pro-
tested, pointing out such ads in
other trades being accepted. Where
upon I was told that my ad would
have to be in the nature of apply
ing to a responsible contractor for
a job. Wasn't that letting the cat
out of the bag? Could the class
nature of the papers me more glar-
ing?
I then asked if the classification
was for the benefit of the workers
or the bosses. Being asked what
boss, replied just any boss who
wants a docile, free-born willing
American slave.

Whole Regiment of Kuomintang Troops Joins

controls a few cities around the
city of Nanchang.
Speaking about the Red Army,
the paper says that large per-

Joined the Red Armies. For in
stance, a full regiment under a GER
tain Captain Lo, which was sta
toned at the eastern part of XII
angst and was relied upon by the
counter-revolutionary Kuomintang
government as the best force for
suppressing the Communists in this
area, has recently all rebelled and
joined the Red Armies under the
command of Comrade Fang TIE
Ming. This is simply one instance
that signifies a growing tendency.
About the organization of the
Red Armies, it is reported that a
great deal of stress is laid upon
political instruction of the Red
Army man. The well-known Chi
nese Communist, Comrade Kou Mo-
Err, who is incidentally the leading
poet and critic in China and the
standard translator of Goethe, etc.,
is said to be in charge Of the De-
partment of Political Instruction in
the Red Army. Besides regular in
structions in the army, it is re-
ported that military academy has
already been established in Kiangsi
for the special training of young
workers and peasants into Red
Army officers.

WASHINGTON.--In a study of

Daily Worker:
Dear Comrades:-I am sending
you this article for publication.
A report from two comrades that
came through Georgia and Birming-
ham, Alabama, reveals to us the
fact that the working class is bend
ing toward our movement so fast
that we cannot spread our leader
ship any too soon.
People in Georgia are in a tur-
MOL. Wages are being cut at an
outrageous pace. The exploitation
of child labor is enough to make
anybody's blood boil. At the age
of ten or as soon as they are strong
enough to carry around a ten-pound
weight without any effort they are
are given man-sized job. Georgia
is ripe, so let us spread our lead
ership among its workers.
Birmingham, Ala, a town that is
one-third A. F. of L., is tired of
fighting against themselves. They
are tired working under the lead
ership Of an organization that is
forcing them to become scabs, for
cling them to fight against them
selves and fellow-workers or starve.
They realize that there is an or
ganization that is fighting this A.
F. Of L. fakery and are crying for
it's leadership.
Comrades! The working class
should be in want of nothing. They
should have everything, for they
are the producers of everything.
Let us spread our leadership, not
only for them, but far and wide
throughout the entire country. The
country is ripe, so let US start the
harvest.
Comradely yours,

ARREST PULEO TO STOP
T.U.U.L. ORGANIZATION

Stephen Puleo of Boston, an ex-
service man, one of the speakers
at meeting called by the National
Textile Workers Union and Trade
Union Unity League of Fall River,
Mass, was arrested Friday, June
q, on the charge of promoting
anarchy" after he had made his ad-
dress.
This charge is leveled against
Stephen Puleo because he urged the
textile and other workers Of Fall
River to organize against wage
cuts, the speed-up system and un-
employment.
The international Labor Defense
of the Boston District is organizing
immediate defense for Stephen
fuleo, as it IS doing in the cases
Of Richard Davis and August Pinto,
who are held for deportation be-
cause of their labor activity, and as
1t is doing in the cases of tens of
other workers who are facing per-
secutions.
The statement in the boss press
that Puleo was wanted on war
rant of 1929 is false issue, for
he could have been apprehended in
side of two hours, since he resides
in Boston and is active and well
known and even was arrested on
Boston Common some five weeks
ago.

The Daily Worker:
Comrades:-On June II a protest
meeting against the lynching of
Negro workers in the South was
held at Social Hall, 1884 E. Adams
st. In spite of the opposition of
the Negro bourgeoisie element and
the police the meeting was a sue
cess.
For the first time the Negroes
of Los Angeles demonstrated by
their actual presence at a Commu-
mist meeting that they are ready
to join the Party of their class in
the common struggle. Sixteen Ne
groes made applications to join the
Communist Party. Some of this
number were women. The fact that
Negro women were present at a
Communist meeting, especially in
Los Angeles, Is of double signifi-
canoe and of the utmost Importance.
1t clearly shows that the most
bitterly exploited group of workers
has at last become awakened and
are ready to follow the program as
outlined by the Communist Party.
The Daily Worker made a great
hit with the Negro workers.
Yours for greater success,

News in regard to the Chinese
Revolution is rather scanty these
days. This is primarily due to
imperialist control of the Chinese
seacoast, the consequent isolation of
the revolutionary forces from out
side contact and the conspiracy of
silence of the capitalist correspon-
dents in China in regard to the de-
velopments and achievements of the
Chinese Revolution.
However, the lack of news does
not in the least indicate that the
pace of the revolution is slackened.
Occasionally, we gather informa-
ton from various papers from
China, including Communist pa
pers, that somehow break through
the iron Gordon of censorship. In
a. recent issue of a Chinese paper
there is contained some facts about
e Chinese Revolution which
throws much light on the victorious
march of the Soviet movement.
The paper tells US that in the 81
districts leach district is about the
size of an American county, which
make up the province of Kiangsi

is free from Communist influence.

Police made their first attempts,

Engdahl was speaking at the
evenings entertainment, the first
time there had ever been any speak

present successfully resisted the de-
mands of the police that there be
no speaking, no mention of the At
lanta persecution of the six work
ers facing the electric chair in

was carried through successfully
and greetings from the gathering
