NEW YORK.-Peru is in a state Of
armed siege, as the general strike
called by the General Workers Coun-
Gil in Lima, in sympathy with the
10000 miners in La Oroya and Nal
Paso in the copper regions of the
Andean mountains, has paralyzed all

Gen. Sanchez Cerro, the military,

year. A scheme of Russian white
guardists to assassinate the Soviet
delegation to the Geneva arms con-
ference has come to light. A white
guardist was to smuggle himself
aboard the train on which Litvinoff
and other members of the Soviet
delegation leave Geneva and kill
them. The Swiss police are sup
posed to be exercising extraordinary
care" but it is recalled that when
Soviet Ambassador Vorovsky was as
sassinated at Laussane, Switzerland,
in 1923, the police did not seriously
interfere with the murder, and
neither was any adequate punishment
visited on the murderer.
More Riga Lies.
simultaneously with the scheme to
kill Litvinoff, the Riga lie factory
commenced to work overtime, spread
ing a ridiculous story about the vii
lagos of "Jelino and Dubki" being
shot to pieces by Soviet troops on
an armored train during an attempt
to "forcibly collectivize" the peasants.
The utter insanity of this charge is
evident when it is remembered that
the Soviet government and the Com
munist Party have denounced even
mild popular pressure of a propa-
ganda sort to speed collectivization
and have denounced all too hasty
col ] ectivization. preferring to go
ahead on the basis OF full voluntary,
and well prepared collectives, with in

MOUNT
in BUFFALO, NY.
Boss Papers Lie and
Say They Hire

BUFFALO, N. Y. - Just few lines
about the situation here, which is
terrible as can be.
Not long ago I read in the cap
italist paper that the Curtiss Aero
plane will hire about 500 men and
plenty of workers thought they would
have work over winter. Now the
workers found out how the capitalist
paper fools the workers.
Laying Off, Not Hiring.
Instead of hiring men they lay off
many hundreds of workers and the
bosses say it is just temporary. The
workers thought they would be called
back to work soon. Now just the
other day another lay-off started
and the bosses tell the men too that
it is just for a short time. Wages
are being cut for those still on the
job, about 10 percent.
Another plant, the Pierce Arrow
Motor Co. announced a long time ago
that they would start up in full force
to build modern truck and work will
be open for hundreds of men. Not
long after that advertisement big
layoff starts and the Pierce plant
now employs just few workers and
those that go fifty-fifty with the
foremen on their wages.
Most of the factories here just work
part time. Hundreds of workers are
without roofs over their heads and
without clothing for winter.

REVOLT FLARES
UP in NICARAGUA
Unions Affiliate to Red
International

NEW YORK.-Reports from Nj
caragua to capitalist newspapers
show the growing seriousness of the
armed clashes against the Wall
Street Moncada regime there. Pres
ident Moncada, who was elected with
the aid of marines, has issued a de-
cree establishing martial law in the
departments of Esteri, NueTo Segovia,
Jinotega and Matagalpa.
1t is in these regions that the poor
peasants have again taken UP arms
in ever increasing numbers against
the Moncada regime, and its sup
porters, American imperialism. Ser
geant Russell White, of the marines,
was killed during the course of a
battle with armed peasants and
workers.
Nicaragua, together with the other
Latin American countries, is in the
throes of a severe crisis. The last
election showed the glowing discon-
tent of the Nicaraguan masses. Only
40 per cent of the voters participated,
as against 0 per cent in the first
election which Moncada won. Both
elections we're under direct marine
supervision. Moncada is a tool of u
S. imperialism, having been paid a
huge bride by the present secretary
of state, Stimson.
Reports tc the Daily Worker from
Nicaragua state that the Nicaraguan
Federation of Workers, the leading
trade union of that country, has
withdrawn from the Pan-Americar
Federation of Labor on the ground
that that organization, headed by
Matthew Vol, is a tool of Yankee
imperialism. 1t has declared its adj
llerence to the Latin American Con-

In its official organ the Nicaraguar

Machado Police Kill 7;
Cannot Stop
Clashes

HAVANA, Nov. 14.-Seven have
been killed and SO injured here in
series of clashes against the Machado
regime. Martial law has been de-
clared in Havana and its environs by
Machado, but it exists in reality
throughout the island.
Bloody Machado has under his
command 10000 soldiers, but despite
their continuous patrolling and sup
ervision dozens of armed clashes have
taken place in Cuba against the Wall
Street regime.
The Nationalist leaders are con-
spicuous by their absence in the
wing revolutionary struggles
against the Machado dictatorship.
The reformist trade union leaders are
aiding Machado by remaining passive
as the masses surge on to revolt.
Wholesale arrests are being made of
Communists and students. Many OF
them will be murdered outright by
Machado, as he has done in the past.
A rigid censorship has b n
clamped down. Machado is in con-
slant communication with U. S. Am
bassador Guggenheim and all his
activities are carried out with strict
supervision of U. S. secretary of state
Stimson and the National City Bank
of New York, the largest imperialist
force in Cuba
The uprisings against the Machado
regime are not confined to Havana.
Several days ago a severe clash took
place between students and police at
Santiago de Cuba, more than 500
miles southwest of Havana.
The basis of the discomfort and
struggles is the growing economic
crisis in Cuba. Hundreds of thou

Feed Unemployed Reekimg Garbage; Call

DETROIT, Mich.--Garbage, reek-
ing with filth and germs, and dirty
boss politics is what Murphy is feed
ing the Detroit unemployed, who are
lucky enough to live long enough to
wind up at the shrinking counter of
the slop joints which the Detroit
mayors Unemployment Commission
is backing.
Recently the Detroit Daily came
out with narrowing exposure of the
poison and slime that was being fed
to the unemployed at the McGregor
Institute, whose food is as dopy as
its religion What was behind this?
Why suddenly should a capitalist
newspaper become so solicitous about
the tortured stomachs Of the few hun
bred thousand starving unemployed
workers? 1t is true, conditions at
the slop joints are bad enough, as
will be shown here. But that didn't
bother Murphy so much. He's max

he is doing to relieve their suffer-

not the jobless workers who freeze in
