Chinese WAR
LORDS CLASH
Chang Army Led by
Lrnperialist Officers

The battle royale between the
Chinese Kuomintang militarist fac
tons which was at first fought
with manifestos, kilograms, and
counter-denunciations, has at last
resulted in armed clashes and ma
jor military engagements.
Special cable to the New York
Times reports that "Chiang Kali
shek will lead a special military
division, which is highly trained
unit differed by foreigners and
equipped with the latest devices"
The American and German i'm
perialists evidently have not much
trust in Chang Kai-shek, nor are
they satisfied with merely "advis-
ing" him. They are now taking a
direct hand in the fight. Chang
Kai-shek is not using foreign Off
GERS, but the imperialists, by put
ting their officers in actual control
of Chang Kai-shek's army, are
making use of the soldiers as we'll
as the figure head, Generalissimo
Chang, for their own purposes.
According to capitalist press re-
ports, the Northern Anti-Nanking
mlitarists opened the drive Thurs
day fifty miles west of Suchow
along the Tientsin-Pukow Railway.
There are already 5000 wounded
Marking soldiers brought to Suchow
from the front, and 1000 wounded
were reported to have been brought
to Marking. The number of Nank-
ing soldiers killed was kept as a
secret from the public by the cen
sors, which implies that the casualty
must be very large. Northern cas-
ualties are not known yet.
The Anti-Nanking bloc, while diff
ferent from Marking in represent
ing a different imperialist clique
and a different set of reactionary
social forces in China, is just as
counter-revolutionary as Marking.
It's internal contradictions are also
very acute, Despite long negotia-
tions between the various cliques
that made up the Anti-Nanking
bloc, they are not yet able to form
government. The followers of
the Anti-Nanking bloc rang from
the classical representatives of
feudal remnants to the cleft" Kuo-
mintang national reformists, their
only basis for united front being
their common enmity to the Chang
Kai-shek clique and their common
hatred of the revolutionary work.
ers and peasants.
The present militarist war in
China, the third after Chang Kai-
shek's march to Picking in 1928, was
predicted last December by R. Doom
ping in a pamphlet on "Mlitarist
Wars and Revolution in China" and
special article in the Anniversary
Edition of the Daily Worker. The
pamphlet, which is distributed by
the Workers Publishers, 81 f. 125th
tSt., N. Y, also contains very de-
tailed analysis of the social forces
underlying the wars and revolutions
in China.

His statement said:
at is obvious from the criminal
investigation thus far conducted by
the Police Department that the most
effective weapon that could be used
to prevent such occurrences of vio-
lence in strikes at the hands OF

this country would be an adequate
deportation law so drawn as to clear
ly prescribe the procedure, which
would result in a speedy hearing
and the deportation of the aliens
unlawfully in this country.
Despite Whalen's miserable col
lapse, there is every evidence that
the committee is going ahead with
the drive against all militant work
ers, particularly against Communists
and with the job of working up to
a war against the Soviet Union.
The House rules committee also
ordered a favorable report yester-
day on a resolution introduced by
Fish of New York for "investiga-
ton" Crane up proceedings) against
the Communists and the revolution

port is merely held up few days
to enlarge it's scope. The House will
surely have before it soon further
repressive bills, probably some kind
of national criminal syndicalism law.

workers.
Naturally the immediate spread of
revolution is most important, and
the capitalist press reports that the
British have their Confidence

"rumors of impending attacks" had
caused the government to take "the
most stringent precautions" to pro-

the military have been ordered to

masses.
The British driven out of Shola-
pur state that. they were evacuated
only by the utmost effort of the po-
lice, not one of the police escaping
wounds and nine are known to be
dead and five missing. The police
officials themselves are driven out

refugee trains. They state that dur
ing the fighting, after the police
had mown down the people with
rifle fire, six policemen were cap
tured and, drenched in kerosene
were cooked in style not at all ap-
proved of by Gandhi.
The British will undoubtedly use
every available bullet to crush the
rising at Sholapur before it spreads
to other cities, but at the last re-
ports the city was still held by the
Indians. The British were trying,
as usual, to make believe that the
rioting was turning" into a fight
between Hindus and Moslems, but
while the leaders of both religions
may not like it, among the workers
the Hindu and Moslem proletarians
are united against the British and
native oppressors. :.

Now we are forced to make this
call for immediate financial assis-
lance. Now it is your turn to lend
hand, to help shoulder these diff
ficulties and liquidate the immediate
danger in which the Daily Worker
finds itself.
Comrades: You will do this, help
the Daily Worker your utmost and
at once, or you will stand before
the revolutionary workers of the
world as section of our movement
that could not keep its central or
gan alive and growing at time
when it was needed most.
Our comrades everywhere must
take this emergency call very SER
iously. We issued our first state
ment yesterday. Today you should
already be at work gathering funds.
What To Do Next,
1. You must at once send capa-
BILE committees to all the sympa-
thetic workers organizations in
your city, secure a contribution or
a collection from the members
present.
2. You must organize a broad
tag day and house to house collec-

ilizing all Party members, all SYM
pathetic workers, all workers or
CARNATIONS to help collect funds.
8. You must set a date for the
biggest picnic you have ever had in
your city, making sure that all
workers organizations and their
members participate, and that work
ers in great numbers from the shops
and mills attend
4. Every comrade who has in his
possession one of our official Daily
Worker campaign lists, must go to
his neighbors, his fellow workers in
the shop, and to his meetings with
this list and secure contributions as
we'll as new readers for the Daily
Worker. If our campaign lists
have not reached your city, write
US at once.
5. Every Communist Party dis
trict, section and unit; every Ian
guage bureau, fraction and Ian
guage paper shall cooperate in this
campaign for $4,000; shall meet
and plan and actually carry out
plans to start a flow of contribu-
tons into the Daily Worker at once.
When the Daily Worker is in dan

task to jump to the rescue imme-

Bradley Wheaton Sets Record. Rush es Is3o Bathing Sesson.--oets
 Free Ticket for Rest of Year

Come on in the waters fine" said young Bradley Wheaton of Bradley street. as he sported about in the water. of the Roseann swimming pool, KilIingly avenue, last Saturday. No one responded to the invitation. Brad lev is Putnam's first outdoor swimmer of the 1880 season and has the honor of being the first to swim In the new swimming pool on killingly ave- nue owned by Tony Goulet.
 When young Wheaton had finished his cold water bath and emerged to the bath house he was presented with a season ticket to the pool. This was n surprise and was not anticipated by Wheaton when he took the first swim.
 Mir Goulet says that he saw Whea- ton come down to the edge of the pool and feel of the water. He was carry ing his bathing suit and soon slipped into it. He then plunged into the water. He went in and out num- Der of times, according to Mir. Goulet, and remained for ten to fifteen min utes. After swimming out to the middle of the pool and turning a somersault he called it a day

 Mir. Goulet said that he had made no announcement of the fact but had decided to give a season ticket to the pool to the first person to enter it for a swim. Wheaton did not go into the water to win a prize nor to entertain a crowd of people. Pos sibly he wanted to be the first in the water this season. He was.
 The Roseann swimming pool will be open to the public this summer for the first time. It is a private enterprise and is the result of the energy of Mir. Goulet, who felt that Putnam young sters should have a safe and clean place to swim and that their elders would also appreciate a place where they can go this summer during the hot weather for a small fee. Mir. Goulet anticipates that the new pool fills an imperative need in Putnam and will be generously patronized.
