By P. LAPINSKY (Moscow).

THE majority of the London newspapers are
endeavoring to make France responsible
for possible breakdown of the London Naval
Conference. But the "blackmailing policy
and the sabotage" of the French imperial
lists could only for time conceal the quarrel
between the most important actors in the
tragi-comedy of London, the quarrel between
Great Britain and the United States.
When Mr.. stimson, the United States for
eign minister, fastened to publish his program
memorandum, it was only at the first mo-
ment that it evoked favorable response from
the British side. e..
Stimson proposed complete parity in air
craft-carriers and destroyers, and only in re-
gard to submarines confined himself to a
more vague expression of the desire to fix
"lowest possible standard of tonnage" In re-
turn for this the United States make GER
tain concession in the question of large cruis-
ers. The question left unsolved at the nego-
tiations which took place between Macdonald
and Hoover and Dawes whether the United
States should possess 81 or IS large cruisers,
has been decided by Stimson in favor of
Great Britain The United States demands for
itself only 18 large cruisers as against 10 Bril-
tish All this appeared at first sight to be
acceptable gin principle"
But suddenly there was revealed the real
differences of opinion. The Memorandum,
extracts only from which were handed over
for publication, was set against the original
Memorandum. 1t was ascertained that the ac-
tual concrete demands of the U. S. A. imper-
ialists were not at all included in the published
Memorandum.
Since the abortive Three-P Power Naval Con-
ference at Geneva in 1927, the questions of
cruisers and the calibre of their guns has been
regarded as the most important question in
dispute between Great Britain and the United
States. AS is known, the principle of "par-
ity" in regard to capital ship fleets was al
ready laid down at the Washington Confer
ence in 1921 and 1922. The question of cruis-
ers, however, which led to the failure of the
Geneva Conference, was in the main solved in
the preliminary conversations which Mac
Donald had with Hoover and Dawes, and still
more concretey in the Stimson Memorandum
at the London Conference. 1t appeared there
fore, as if everything were going smoothly.
Then, however, there arose in unexpected
manner the dispute in the question of capital
ship fleets!
After the Washington Conference there had
set in real competition in the construction
and arming not only of cruisers (which were
not included in the limitations agreed to in
Washington). but also in the large capital
ships At Washington Japan could not bring
itself to scrap its newest big ship the "Mutsu,"
and Japan was allowed to retain this ship and
also the "Nagato." In return the United

WHILE our language press prints the thesis
" and statements of the Party, certain of
the articles that it prints is ballast to the
material issued by the Patty.
In the "Laisve" for February 3, 1880, an
article by DR.. A. Potrik which contained an
anti-proletarian, petty-bourgeois theology was
printed. The authors idea of an intelligent
and progressive worker is one !"who is able to
dfferentiate bad from good, who is interested
in the world and follows the flow of world
events, who can grasp the ability to nationally
orientate his life, who is somewhat developed
and independently thinking by himself" The
Ignorant public" says the author, "well, one
can believe that in some time to come it will
sober up, but while it is such as it is now, it
benefits no one, neither the Communist Party
or anyone else"
The author admits the existence of classes
but in referring to this point he says:
-. "but is it possible to write all that one
sees, that one hears, that one has in mind
into one article?"
Petty Bourgeois Views.
The author tried to avoid the class content
in his articles, but it is glaringly there, and
especially in the above quotations. This class
content is not proletarian, it is the class-view
Of the lower middle class, the Electromagnetic
IL SnOulO NOT IlHO space III tne COLUMNS OF our
Communist press The petty bourgeois sees
democracy not through proletarian eyes as
bourgeois democracy that shoots down workers

rade Steve Catovis, and then praise officially
through it's courts the policeman who was or
dered to do this), he sees democracy as either
bad or good in general, for all. including both
workers and bourgeois. According to this
point of view, the proletarian dictatorship in
the U. S. s. R. which denies rights to anyone
who gets his whole or part living by the ex-
ploitation Of the labor of others, this prolets-
rian democracy is bad democracy because it is
dictatorship of the proletariat in the interests
of the toiling masses against the class of ex-
ploiters. This idea of good or bad in general
covers up the bourgeois nature of the capital
ist state. which is nothing else but dictator
ship of the bourgeoisie against the broad masses
of the toers in the capitalist countries: These
anti-Marxian. anti-Leninist views must be
swept out Of our Communist press.
In the present stage Of the development Of
American capitalism, it Is more profitable to
suck out profits from the toll and blood Of the
working class by installing machinery which
intensifies the exploitation Of the workers,
which wears away their strength and energy
at q quicker tempo than ever before. This
American naturalization drive which is wor-

"Our Colony Of Cuba"

At present the chief inlperalist agent in
Cuba is Gerardo Machada, internationally
known as an assassin and holder of the
General Electric Company, who was put in the
post of president of the republic" by means
of loans made by Yankee concerns which
bought this magnificent political position for
their lackey (Machado is paying great sums
monthly to other politicians that opposed him
in the election in which he was elected" sums
guaranteed by commercial payments under
written by imperialist agents).
The U. S. proletariat already knows the pol
icy of the Machado government, characterized
by the bloodbaths given the workers and peas
ants and the most barbarous attacks against
the revolutionary organizations.
Machado-The Infamous.
The assassination of working class leaders,
the massacre of agricultural workers, the Jail
ings, deportations, the Original" method of
feeding the bodies of militant workers to the
sharks of Havana Bay, crimes against Cuban
emigrants abroad such as the murder of Julio
Mella, and other means used daily by Machado
and his big gang have made Machados regime
known to the whole world proletariat one
of the most brutal that history records in the
oppression of colonial and semi-colonial peo-
Piles.
Machado and his followers have scrupulousy
and slavishly served the interests Of Yankee
Imperialism and its appendix, the Cuban bour-
geoisie. The name of this criminal. an example
of our class enemy, is the symbol of regime
of oppression, of plumber and robbery that
world imperiasm's agents in China, that the
fake Revolutionary" regime of Rubio- Gales
and Portes Gil in Mexico, likewise carry out.
The exploitation of the wage workers Of Cuba
who, according to an estimate of 1919, number
100000 among population of 100000, and
among which million of workers are not only
men but many women and child~en. Gre rrah'e
to move without reckoning on the Cuban hang
man of Yankee imperialism. Yankee imperial
ism could not benefit from its rule of this
small rich country did it not count upon a
whole apparatus of oppression that guarantees
it's investments. The accession of Machado to
power marked the period in which the White
House acquired complete economic hegemony
in I'd country, which necessitated it's compile
ment complete political hegemony.
2 Machado is merely the governor Of the colony
of Cuba, practically only another state of the
American Union, subjected to barbarous ex-
ploitation of Yankee Imperialism.

THE UNITED STATES AT THE
LONDON CONFERENCE.
Imbe,ialst Riual,ies Saa,bened

States was permitted" to complete the con-
struction of the Maryland" and Great Britain
was given for the sake of equality, the right
to build two corresponding monster ships, the
Rodney" and the "Nelson."
It is over these powerful ships that there
has arisen at the present movement the dis
pute regarding parity" Before all America
desired that, in order to achieve parity al
ready at the end of the coming year. Great
Britain instead of scrapping five Of the older
large ships of the "Iron Duke" type fitted
with 1915 inch guns, as was originally agreed
to at Washington nj 1922, should scrap five
of the new vessels of the "Queen Elizabeth"
type carrying Is inch guns America ex-
pressed readiness on its part, instead of three
to scrap no less than four of the older large
ships-how very touching!-but wanted in
return to receive the right to build supple
mentary ship parallel to the British Rodney!
In the event of the proposals of the U. S.
A. imperialists being realized, it would mean,
according to British calculations that the
FLOATING fortresses" of the United States
would possess in all thirty-three 16 inch guns,
while the British would possess eighteen, and
the Japanese sixteen guns of the same
calibre!
The conference is therefore being under
mined from all sides. At the same time hardly
the representatives of Japan and Italy who are
wisely keeping in the background. There
have, however, been already revealed with suf-
ficient cearness the difficulties of an agree
ment being arrived at between Japan and
America, as we'll as the tendency on the part
of Great Britain to certain "approachment"
to Japan and Italy. .....-
In these circumstances the circles most in
terested in the Success" of the Conference.
and before all the Macdonald Government are
compelled to seek ways and means which have
not hitherto come within the compass Of the
Conference The tactics of the French imper-
ialists are causing the British imperialists to
bring the Conference on to the path of poll
teal negotiations over every possible peace
guarantee. Fewer ships, but more agree
ments!
The United States, as before, desires to
preserve full freedom of action, the privilege
of the strong. OF course, thousand consid-
erations compel the imperialist powers, espe-
cially Great Britain and the United States, to
exert every effort in order to "save" the con-
ference, at least to keep up the necessary
appearances. But the prestige Of the policy
of "Pacifism" has alrady received severe
blow. All the antagonisms and the greedy
rivalries have come to light as never before.
Even certain circles of United States imper-
ialism, as the Washington Correspondent Of
the "Times" reports, compelled Cynical
ly" to recognize that the Disarmament Con-
ference has become Conference for increas-
ing ornaments"

German Ariel in the First
Ranks

We have received the following from Sim
feropol, Crimea:
"A good impression is created by the Ger
man artel 'Samava, which commenced sowing
on March the 9Th. the earliest in the district.
They are well organized, and everyone knows
his place and duties. As-soon as the bell rings
in the morning, everyone Immediately leaves
for his place in the fields. Groups of members
of the artel are carrying on contests among
themselves for speed and quality of work. The
artel as a whole is competing with the neigh
boring commune 'Borba' which has also COM
.menced sowing. The artel has sent its tractor
to assist 'Borba' and has undertaken to help to
sow the lani Of two neghboring tartar villages.
"After the 'Samava' and 'Borba, number
Of other collective farms started work. Some
Of them completed their formation only on the
eve Of the sowing campaign, and adopted the
rules Of the arte]'

which they had not applied" Others swore
that they had been sent off to temporary posi-
tons which had been represented to them as
permanent" Some told of going to distant
cities for jobs that dd>not even exist. Others
testified that "the wages paid on the job were
much lower than the agency had represented"

but not returned as the law requires when no
jobs were found, was also charged against the
private agencies. Sometimes the employment
sharks fatty refused to return the fees At
other times they would send the disappointed
workers off on other wild goose chases. In
this way, one witness stated, "they would
keep the men going back and forth until they
got tired so that they would not come any
more and they would not go back for their
fee." Another witness reported having "seen
fellows thrown down the stairs" when seek
ing return of their money.
During the investigation, the United States
Supreme Court handed down the typically
capitalstminded decision that the fees
charged by private employment agents are
not subject to regulation by law. Hence the
agencies can charge the workers their very
eye-teeth for short-lived chance to be ex-
plotted One instance is cited of woman
who paid $18 for job which only lasted two
weeks; so that her job cost her half of the
total wages recewed She returned to the
agency, but received neither another position
nor refund"
Sending of girls or women to immoral re-
sorts though forbidden by statute, is also a
standing grievance against the private agents
investigated in the report. Testimony before
the commission on this point was backed up
by the annual report of the Committee Of
Fourteen. of New York City, and by the news
papers at the time.

How Job Sharks Skin the
Unemployed

OUTRAGEOUS treatment handed out to un-
employed workers in their search for bread
and butter is once more exposed in a report
on fraudulent practices of private employ
ment agencies just issued by the American
Association for Labor Legislation, in New
York.
The report, prepared by George H. Traitor,
summarizes hundreds of pages of information
buried in the unpublished proceedings of the
New York State Industrial Survey Commits
sion. "Witness after witness, testifying I'M
der OATH" states Trafton, described fragrant
abuses practiced by some of these CONNER
cial enterprises, conclusively demonstrating
that the fee-charging employment agency bust
ness is still infested with INSCRIPTIONS char
acters who do not hesitate to mulct the help
less, and who find the jobless worker an easy
victim"
One of the most common complaints before
the commission was Misrepresentation of jobs.
witnesses testified" says Trafton, "that
after paying fees they had been sent to jobs
which obviously they could not fill and for
