DROWN 50 BRAZIL
SAILORS AS REDS
Terror Will Not Stop
Aug. l Preparations

SAC PAULO, Brazil, July 21. -
That fifty sailors of the Brazilian
navy have disappeared after having
been charged with being Commu-
nists, was charged by Senator Man
eel Lacerda, liberal, speaking be-
fore the federal senate at Rio de
Janeiro Saturday. Undoubtedly
these men were deliberately drown
ed by the puppets of British and
American imperialism who head the
Brazilian government. This is the
same tactic used by the bloody Ma
chado in Cuba, who throws revolu-
tionary workers into the bay. It re-
calls the mass murders of rebel
workers in Chile when hundreds
were shipped to the penal island of
De Las Afueras, but never arrived.
The charges against the so Bra
lillian sailors was that they were
spreading Communist propaganda in
the army and navy. The mass mur-
der of the bosses and their colonial
tools will not stop the mass demon
strations for August 1 throughout
the world under the leadership of
the Communist Parties.

LEADER GOES TO
join WAR LORDS
Fight War Danger on
August 1st

Capitalist press reports that
Wang Ching-wei, leader of the
'left" Kuomintang, is on his way
to Peking, and has already arrived
at Nagasaki, Japan. Wang's mis-
sion is to take part in the forma-
ton of a new government in Pc
king and serve as political accom-
panist to the northern militarist
coalition.
The social basis of Chang Kai-
shek has been shifted from the ma
tional bourgeoisie to the compro-
dore bourgeoisie and the local feudal
remnants in the provinces under
Nanking rule. Wang Chin-wei's
faction has now stepped into the
shoes of the Chang Kai-shek clique
as the champion of the Chinese ma
tional bourgeoisie, and, with its oc-
casional outburst of cleft" phrase
ology, has now come forward to
provide political window-dressing
for the northern coalition and to at
tempt to fool the Chinese masses.
With the help of the cleft" Kuo-
mintang, and with the alliance of
the different factions temporarily
strengthened by the formation of a
new government in Peking, the
northern militarists, supported by
the japanese and British imperial
lists, are intensifying their drive
south against Chang Kai-shek, the
tool of Yankee imperialism in
China. According to an Associated
Press dispatch, discounting the ex-
travagant claims by both sides,. an
independent" news agency reports
that the northern forces have al
ready advanced within ten miles of
Kweiteh, an important strategical
point in Honan province.
The militarist wars in China are
actually preliminary skirmishes of
the imperialist war for which all
the imperialist powers are making
feverish preparations. The work
ers of the world, on the other hand,
are also making feverish prepara-
tions, not to support the imperial
list war, like the social patriots, but
to fight against it. On July 16 we
heard from Shanghai that the Chi
nese workers have already staged a
series of militant demonstrations
against the militarist war in China
and in preparation for August 1,
the international Anti-War Day.

SCORE UTW CALL
TO GOV. GARDNER
Textile Union Exposes
His Crimes On Labor

CHARLOTTE, N. c., July 21.-
The Southern District Board of the
National Textile Workers Union has
issued a statement sharply opposing
and criticizing the appeal to Gov
ernor o. Max Gardner, made by
o. W. Bolick, an organizer for the
United TEXTILE Workers Union.
The statement says: "Bolick
claims he represents several hundred
workers in Greensboro. If this is
true, are these workers going to
allow this combination between their
representative and the governor who
owns mills at Shelby, N. c., himself,
who sent the militia to break up
the strike at Gastonia where seven
workers were sentenced to living
death, and the Marion strike where
six workers were shot to death by
the mill owners police for picketing.
In this Marion struggle, the U.T.W.
led the workers into a trap by ad
vising them to go unarmed to the
picket lines. In Elizabeth the U.T.W.
misleaders settled the strige of the
militant workers by accepting a
blacklist, through arbitration. The
most militant workers at Elizabeth
ton were sent to the chain gang and
never taken back.
Refuse Arbitration.
The district executive committee
of the N.T.W. urges the workers
of North Carolina not to accept ar
bitration, but to elect rank and file
committees from the ranks and
handle all disputes with the bosses
themselves.
The N.T.W. is controlled by the
workers themselves, the statement
points out. 1t knows the workers
are ready for a struggle against
starvation wages, long hours, and
unemployment. This is the reason
the U.T.W. has called meeting in
Charlotte for July 6, and openly
notified Gardner and the bosses it
is for the purpose of keeping the
workers from joining the N.T.W.
