tun. These bandits" are the revo-
lutionary partisan detachments OF
the peasants who are carrying on a
bitter struggle against the japanese
invaders as well as their own natural
oppressors. The real nature of the
clashes with tn Japanese is given in
the following analysis by lobe" in
the Inprecorr.
Even in Manchuria itself, where
Chang Kai-shek completely capt.
uiated and did not even attempt TO
offer any serious resistance to
the Japanese advance, spontaneous
peasant revolts and partisan fights
are breaking out IN the rear of the
Intervention army. Revolutionary
partisan attachments are being
formed, which cut off the Japanese
communications, attack Japanese
patrols, cut the telefon wires, des-
troy the railway tracks and stir up
the villages. The character of this
partisan movement is shown by the
fact that it is directed not only
against the imperialists, but also
against the native landowners and
rich merchants; that the land Is
divided among the moor nea SAINTS.
that the stores of food boarded by
the rich are confiscated and dis
tributed among the poor and starv-
ing population. 1t is equally signi-
ficant that the punitive expedi-
tons proceed against the insurgent
peasants hand ia hand with the
Japanese military authorities, and
are led by the Chinese local gov
ernments set up by the Japanese"
The punitive Japanese expeditions
are being sent into Manchuria in adj
ditional numbers to prepare the at
tack on the Soviet Union and to crush
the masses into acceptance of the
exploitation of Japan and
the other imperialists.
The danger of an imperialiSt on
slaught against the Soviet Union is
growing daily. Workers in a few

PICKET
LINES KEEP FIRM

LAWRENCE, Mass, Oct. 29.-Tues-
day nights regular meeting of the
United Front Rank and File Strike
Committee was the best so far, the
most businesslike and the best at
tended. The committee still needs
broadening with more representa-
tives of more departments, but this
is going on.
Fred Biedenkapp, secretary OF the
committee and strike leader, opened
with arguments for better picketing
during the latter part of the week.
The strikers, knowing that there are
none or few scabs, picket well on
Monday mornings, and then gradu-
ally lose interest, until the next Mon
day. But this gives too much OBJ
portunity for surprise attack by
the bosses with imported scabs.
There must be picket lines in full
force every day, twice day, and the
time of picketing must be extended
to cover more of the day.
In describing the united front.
Biedenkapp said: 1--WE do everything
to preserve the solidarity of the
strikers and to get harmony and
power for them. We do not attack
the workers in the U. T. w. and
American union. The fight is against
their leadership, for those leaders are
trying to divide the workers. He
called for house to- house organiza-
ton, and made many concrete pro-
posals for improving organization
and picketing and relief.
Special reports were made on de-
tense (this defense report will be
ready for publication soon) and on
publicity. Regular issuing of the
strike bulletin and circulation of the
workers press was arranged.
The United Front Rank and File
Strike Committee, after full discus
sion. in which the most important
speakers were the rank and file mem
bers, voted for various motions, as
follows:
A statement will be issued, calling
on all workers, and particularly on
the Lawrence strikers, to show their
resentment to the city councils re-
fusal Of the Common as a place in
which to meet and advocate the
united front, that the city feed the
hungry, and that the strike prisoners
be released. The call is to support
the strike through the leadership of
the United Front Rank and File
Strike Committee. A statement will
be issued, directed to workers OF
whatever union, to hold departmental
meetings and elect delegates to the
strike committee, also to be more
militant and determined on the
picket lines and picket longer.
1t was voted to send committees
to the meetings of workers of the
U. T. w. and American Textile union
and speak on the united front and
the necessity Of spreading the strike.
Letters will be sent to language
clubs, inviting them to support the
strike and send their representatives
to the United Front Rank and File
Strike Committee.
There are to be daily meetings of
the picket captains.
