CHILE FASCTSTS
RAPE, TORTURE
WOMEN WORKERS

ANTOFOGASTA, Chile, Nov. H. -
Arain the fascist regime of the die
tator Ibanez has struck at the Chile
an working class, and this time in the
vilest manner that resembles the bar
barous treatment of the workers by
the feudal reactionaries of China.
Here, in the nitrate zone, where
American imperialism is fastening its
grip upon the lives of the Chilean
workers, the Ibanez government has
imprisoned seven women, charged
with spreading Communist Party
propaganda"
More, two of these women being
young girls were violated and tor
tured by the soldiery who took them
prisoner. All of them we're dragged
from their beds in the night, pulled
naked through the streets and at the
iails water was thrown on them so
that they might die of consequent ILL
ness.
Thus the Savagery of the bourge-
oisie gives the lie to the supposed
"chivalry" of the Latin gentlemen"
when they deal with women of the
working class. Thus the Chilean pro-
letariat has another crime against it
to avenge by better organization and
determined revolutionary struggle.

LONDON, Nov, II. - In an open
imperialist speech, calling for greater
war preparations, Ramsay MacDon-

ed today to what lengths the social
fascists go in maneuvering for actual
war.
Talking about the struggle for
world markets, and the necessity OF

trouble has been to see to il that
Mr.. Bennett and Mr.. Forbes do not

frame of mind of hard-headed
business men who see that inter-

us (the British imperialists), that
inter-imperial agreements may be
of mutual helpfulness, may extend
over the whole of the empire and
may strengthen us in the struggle
that we may have to engage in for
the economic and spiritual exist

save capitalism, with its mass starv-

revolutionary wrath Of the workers.

British and American
Imperialisms Cover
Swords With Words
By HARRISON GEORGE.

Yesterday there We're speeches. 1t
was Arnnistice Day. But they were
not speeches of peace, even though
the speakers, Hoover and Macdonald,
decorated them with with words
about peace.
They were war speeches, those
made by the Presid Mt of the United
States and the fake socialist" who
serves as British prime minister.
Do you understand what that
means, workers? War speeches! Do
you realize that on the day which
was supposed to be given to celebrat-
ing peace, on "Armistice Day., the
heads of two great imperialist ma
tons ratified the saber of war Just
as other rulers did before, the last
world war?
Workers, do not fail to see the
threat of war hidden in the words
of peace! Your lives, the lives of
your loved ones, depend upon you
seeing. Upon you acting after you
see and understand.
Macdonald, the fake Socialist"
and "pacifist", but speaking for Brit
ish imperialism, driven to the wall by
American imperialist rivalry for
trade and power, fearful of the real
socialism being built in the Soviet
Union, threatens both. He absolves
himself and British imperialism from
responsibility for the coming war by
saying:
Ride the wind and direct the
stornl-that is all that a government
Can do"
Then he laid down which way the

For food ships" are innocent
symbols of imperialist trade, and
many a ship supposed to be loaded
with corn has carried cartridges and

this imperialist proposal, which
Hoover tried to say was "disinter-

I'VE, as a nation whose independ-

born of war, cannot contend that
there never is or never will be right
