lea is the richest country in the
world, yet not one cent is paid in
social insurance. Workers are forced
to starve because they have given
the best years of their life to capi-
talism. Strike on May First! De-
mand social insurance for all work.
ers!
The bosses control the U. S. gov
eminent. They use it as strike
breaker against the workers. They
organize fascist bands to beat up
workers, to break up their demon
strations and meetings. Workers
are jailed, dubbed and killed be-
cause they dare to fight for Work
or Wages, because they dare to pro
test against the bosses tyranny. The
terror against the Negro workers
is especially vicious. The govern
ment prohibits workers from dem
onstrating on the streets. 1t now
attempts to destroy the revolution
airy organizations of the workers,
particularly the Communist Party,
In this the bosses have the full sup
port of the American Legion, the Ku
Klux Khan and the so-called pa
triotic organizations. The workers
must organize to protect themselves
from the attacks of the police and
hired thugs and gangsters. Demand
the release of all those arrested for
activities in the class struggle. Build
mass workers defense corps! Strike
on May First against the bosses
terror and the strike breaking gov
eminent!
The attack of the bosses and
their government is being fully sup
ported by the American Federation
of Labor, the Music group, and the
socialist party. The A. F. of L. is
fully cooperating with the govern
ment in smashing strikes, deporting
foreign-born workers and turning
over militant workers to the police.
The A. F. of L. through it's fascist
policy and leadership is trying to

organized into militant unions. 1t
cooperates with the bosses to carry

trade unions, however, wages a
militant class struggle against the
bosses. 1t takes the lead in organ =

against the speed-up, wage cuts, and
long hours. 1t fights for the 7-hour
day, 5-day week, higher wages and
decent working and living cond;-

sist the fascist terror of the A. F.
of L.! Expose the treachery of the
socialist party! Build the Revolu-
tionary Trade Union Unity League !!
Strike for the 7-hour day!
The socialist party long ago be-
trayed the interests of the workers.
Together with the New York police,
the socialist party sold out the New
York dressmakers. The socialist
administration in Milwaukee is slug
ging and falling workers, breaking
up meetings and workers demon
strations.
While millions starve, while not
a cent of relief is paid to the I'M
employed, the bosses government is
spending rs cents out of every dol
lar of revenue for war purposes
The collapse of the London Confer
ence proves that disarmament is i'm
possible under capitalism. The boss

working class and the youth are be-
