US. EMPIRE USES 5000
JEWS AGAINST BRITISH

A parade of Jewish fascists
marched down to Rutgers Square
yesterday, where takers addressed
the four or five thousand who took
part in it, not 100000 as was ex-
aggerated by the early editions of
the capitalist papers. The ranks
of the parade were spread apart and
with large gaps between them OF
about one hundred feet and they
were walking only six abreast. A
representative of the Daily Worker
observed the ranks as they passed.
The parade was called to protest
against the action of Great Britain
in cutting down the quota of Jews
that are entering Palestine. BAL
four gave US the Balfour declara-
ton and now England is breaking
it."
This is not protest of Jewish
workers, but an opportunity that the
bosses of America have grabbed up
to rally the Jews of America for
their own use and increase the sem
timent against Great Britain, the
rival imperialist power in this pres
ent preparation for war. 1t is also
useful to the capitalists as a prep
aration for an attack on the Soviet
Union. Throughout the Palestine
adventure, the Jewish masses have
been the pawns of empire, used by
British against Arabs, and now by
against British.
In the parade were such fascist
as the Jewish Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars" Jewish
Foreign Legion" and a few more.
Many were in uniform.

DRY ACT

The most formidable attack on
prohibition since the Supreme
Court upheld the Voistead act
was scheduled to be launched in
the House today.
Inspired by Representative La
Guardia (R.) of New York, the
anti-prohibitioniSts planned to
question the constitutionality of
the Eighteenth Amendments rati-
fication.
The New Yorker will invoke the
issue in the hope of putting off
all appropriations for enforce
ment Of the dry law. Although
his move seemed predestined to
failure, it called up tremendous
possibilities and may well be car
ried into the courts for final
ruling.
When the House gets around
to consideration today Of the
SIS, 200, 900 item in the Treasury
appropriation bill which is in
tended for enforcement costs,
LaGuardia will make a point OF
order against 1t on the ground
the Eighteenth Amendment actu-
ally went out of existence three
years ago. He will cite the Ian
guage of the amendment itself to
prove his contention.
The point revolves around the
question of what measure the

Japan'S demand for a 10 per

tranSigeant attitude toward the
whole undertaking. and Italy'S oe-
mand for parity with France
coupled with numerous kinks still
to be irored out in the British.
American adjustment with regard
to capital ships and cruisers, all
combine to impress the newly
arrived Americans with the
enormity of the undertaking
ahead Of them.
The positions can be reconciled
in the three days before the con-
ference actually assemblies, but
the chances are regarded pes
SimiStically. In the end, most of
the American delegates believe
the conferences achievements
will probably be limited to an
extension of the battleship build.
