While taxes, especially on the
poor, is mounting, and the burden

ingly heavier, Chang Kai-shek and

the industry is very uncertain and
exhorts them to be thrifty and pru-
denton nothing.
Preliminary reports of the 1880
census show a picture of severe
crisis in the New England textile
industry also. The population has
been cut in many large centers due
to the removal of mills. This is
especially true of Fall River and
New Bedford, Massachusetts.
Reports from Manchester, Eng
land, indicate that the cloth market
is in a very depressed state. The
Indian market has been greatly af-
fected by the recent boycott, and
the China market is very dull.

limits of normal discussion.
The C. C. theoretically rejected
the position of the minority and
confirmed the policy laid down by
the C. c. in its September session
for the struggle against opportun-
ism. The C. C. decided (a) to con-
duct propaganda for the prepara-
ton of a political general strike;
(b) to make a radical change in the
practical work of the Party and in
the organizational work. At the
same time it appeals for struggle
against all forms of opportunism
and any Cancellation toward it.
The c. c. theoretically condemned
the comrades who had defended OPP
portunist positions, and decided (a)
to. eXpel these comrades from this
Political Bureau; (b) to expel coms
rades Pasquini and Santini from the
Central Committee; (c) to instruct
the Political Bureau to take severe
organizational measures against all
comrades who oppose in any way
the policy of the Communist Inter-
national and of the Communist
Party, or attempt to oppose the
carrying out of this policy; and
(d) after an inquiry into the atti-
tude of Comrade Amadeo Bordiga
toward the Communist international
and the Italian Communist Party,
to expel Bordiga from the Commu-
mist Party of Italy.

The seven workers are now out

To keep them out of jail, the work
ers throughout. the country must
continue their campaign demanding
their liberation.
LID. Sounds Alarm.
The International Labor Defense,
80 East 18th Street, New York City,
has issued the following statement
on the attempt being made to send
M. H. Powers and Joe Carr to the
electric chair in Atlanta, Ca:
Because NJ. H. Powers and Joe
Carr, Communist organizers ad-
dressed meetings of Negro and
white workers in Atlanta, Ga, and
urged them to unite in a common
struggle against the employers,
they are facing death in the electric
chair.
Fear Workers Union.
"Afraid that if the Negro and
white workers should join in soil
darity against the common enemy,
they would better their economic
conditions, mill owners and other
capitalist interests have jailed Pow
ers and Carr. In a desperate eff
fort to give the maximum sentence
to the two workers, they have dug
from the musty old law books, a
statute passed in 1861 which calls
for death in convicted of 'inciting
to instruction. According to the
viewpoint of the Georgia rulers, it
is 'inciting to insurrection' to break
down the m-Crowism of the South
and unite the Negro and white
workers in a fight for better condi-
lions.
"The capitalist class of Georgia
is desperate. The prosecuting at
torney has announced that he will
demand the death sentence. He
will demand his pound of flesh from
the militant working class.
GAS the capitalists sent Sacco and
Vanzetti to the death house, so they
now prepare to send Powers and
Carr. If the working class of the
entire country, of the entire world,
does not raise it's voice in mighty
protest, it will have two corpses on
it's hands.
Save Their Lives.
"The case must be given serious
attention. The state of Georgia has
been quiet in its preparation for
the conviction of the two militants.
1t wants to have a quick verdict
and rush the men to death or to a
20 year sentence of living death.
Between now and May 81, date
Of the trial, the story of Powers and
Carr must be made to live from the
Atlantic to the Pacific!
Sound the alarm! Rally to the
defense of Powers and Carr! Save
them from death! Demand their
liberation! Powers and Carr must
not die! Powers and Carr must be
freed!"
