in the intervention plots against the
Soviet Union.
Even today, the socialists and the
police, despite the agreement made a
few days ago by the police with the
United Front May Day Committee
that the workers would have Union
Square at p. m, announce that the
socialists will remain on Union
Square till p. m. on May Day. The
workers of New York behind the
United Front May Day Conference
insist that the socialists and their
police department friends be off
Union Square by p. m. so that the
mighty demonstration of the workers
of New York behind the United Front
May Day Conference, in the demand
for Unemployment Insurance and Re-
lief, against wage cuts and speed-up,
against lynching, against persecution
of the foreign born, against imper-
ialist war and intervention in the
Soviet Union, may take place at
4 p. m.
THE hundreds of thousands of New
York workers must voice this demand
in no uncertain terms by denouncing
the socialist leaders and their police
colleagues by laying down tools on
May First, by rallying the workers to
Madison Square Park at 1890 p. m,
and marching in determined columns
through the streets of New York, to
arrive at Union Square at p. m.
Down tools May Day!
'Denounce and repudiate the social
fascist socialist leaders and their po-
lice department and fascist veteran
colleagues!
Fight for unemployment insurance
and immediate relief!
Organize and strike against wage
cuts and speed-up, for 7-hour day
with no reduction in pay.
Fight against 1ynching and for full
rights for Negroes!
Fight against the persecution of
foreign born!
Fight against imperialist war!

Intervention in our workers father

"All out May Day to Madison
Square Park at 1890 p. m. to march

MOBILIZE AT MADISON
SQUARE MAY |; MARCH
ON TO UNION SQUARE
Communist Party Demands Socialists and
White Guard Allies Get Out of Way
Workers Should Propose Resolutions In Shop
Meetings Scoring Police--Socialist Scheme

NEW YORK.-"The social fascist
leaders of the socialist party, in
league with the New York Police De-
partment, the fascist Veterans of
Foreign Wars and the Russian white
guards, continue their fight against
the workers of New York" says a
statement of the District Committee
of the New York district of the COM
munist Party issued yesterday.
The statement continues: "These
fascists-aIl of them-are trying to
prevent the workers of New York
from demonstrating on May Day.
Although Union Square, according to
the police department itself, was
given to the United Front May Day
Conference long before either the
leaders of the socialist party or the
fascist Veterans of Foreign Wars ap-
piled for it, nevertheless these peo-
pie ignore all agreements with the
workers and persist in their dastardly
efforts to keep the workers of New
York from demonstrating on the day
that belongs to the revolutionary
workers and not to the enemies of
the working class.
These Are Enemies.
THE Communist Party calls upon
the workers of New York to recog-
nize their, enemies in this line up
the socialist leaders, the police de-
partment, the fascist Veterans of
Foreign Wars and the Russian white
guards. Show. this fascist brood, enc
mics of the working class, where you
stand In your union, fraternal Or
CARNATIONS, in the shops, adopt reso-
lutions condemning their counter
revolutionary attack. Pass motions
in support Of the United Front May
Day Demonstration. Build May Day
Committees in your shops to Down
Tools on May Day and go to Madison
Square Park on May l at 1880 p. m.
to march to Union Square. From
May Day Committees in all unions
and fraternal organizations to rally
the workers to Madison Square Park
to march to Union Square.
Expose Their Treachery.
Workers still members of the So
cialist pafty-supporters of the So
eialist party in the unions and fra
ternaI organizations: You see your
social fascist leaders working hand in
hand with the police and the fascist
veterans Denounce these people; ex-
pose them in their treachery to the
working class. Their treachery in
connection with May Day is only an
example of their day-to- day selI-out
and betrayal of the working class in
this country, in Germany, France,
England, and every other capitalist
country. 1t is part and parcel of
their open hostility and participation

only alternative to the triumph of

business men were told yesterday

that the Russian system would sue
