CHINESE SOVIETS WHERE
CANTON DID NOT SUCCEED


outlawed. The Communist Party and Young
Communist League have conducted an heroic
battle and have lost tens of thousands of their
members who have been slaughtered by orders
of the savage miltarist leaders who carry out
the instructions of the imperialist powers. But
the organization has been adapted to the sit
uation and the struggle goes on and will be in
tensified by the Congress of the Chinese Soviets
The Chinese Revolution is not the work of the
Chinese workers and peasants alone. The work
erS and peasants of the Soviet Union are always
ready to help their Chinese comrades. But the
workers in the imperialist countries-United
States, Japan, England, France-also have a
ma jor task. These tasks may be divided into
direct and indirect tasks. Directly, the workers
in the imperialist countries can help by pre-
venting the shipment of war material to the
Chinese lords. In the ammunition, chem
ical, airplane factories, they do militant
work in aiding the Chinese revolutioniSts. The
railroad and marine workers have their special
job In all sections of the imperialist countries,
solidarity with the Chinese Revolution must be
an issue on which to mobilize large masses of
workers to struggle against their imperialist
government.
Indirectly, the workers of the imperialist coun-
tries can do very much to help the Chinese Rev
olution The struggle against their own imper-
from the present crisis will weaken the ability
of the government to mobilize for intervention
in the Chinese Revolution and to carry on i'm
perialist exploits elsewhere. The present eco
nomic crisis presents the workers of the capt.
talist countries with the necessity for struggle.
Unemployment insurance and the strike strug-
gle against wage cuts, the organization and mob
ilization of the workers for these struggles and
the inevitable clashes with the imperialist gov
eminent hinder the government from modifying
against the Chinese Revolution. The exploits OF
American imperialism in Latin America, which
are leading to war against British imperialism
can be INSTRUCTED by the militant struggles of
the workers for their immediate needs.
The struggle of the Chinese workers and peas
ants is part of the struggle of the workers and
peasants throughout the colonial and semi
colonial world-Latin America India, Indonesia,
Indo-China. Africa, etc.-against world imper-
ialisn. The Chinese workers and peasants are
at the front in this struggle. Their struggle is
part of the struggle of the workers throughout
the world against unemployment, wage cuts,
speed-up, which the imperialists are trying to
solve by making war on the colonies for the
procurement of markets, for protecting their
colossal investments, and for securing raw ma
terials
On the third anniversary of the revolt in Can
ton, we hail the First Congress of the Chinese
Soviets, which moving forward in struggle
to unity with the Union of Socialist Soviet Re-
publics 1t is an event of worldwide signifi-
canoe to the working class all over the world.
Solidarity and support must be given to the
Chinese workers and peasants by the workers
of the United States by the struggle for the
Workers Unemployment Insurance Bill of the
Communist Party, for organization of the I'M
employed into the Unemployed Councils of the
workers in the shops into the revolutionary
unions of the Trade Union Unity League, by
strikes under the leadership of the revolutionary
unions against wage cuts, by demonstrations
and militant action in support of the Chinese
Soviets and the rising revolutionary tide in Ger
many, Latin America, India, etc.
Chinese Soviets where Canton did not sue
ceed-but where Canton, Shanghai and the
other industrial cities of China will soon take
the lead in the struggle against world imperial
ism and for the establishment of the power of
the Soviets throughout China!
