ADMITS CHINESE
MASSES FOR REDS

NEW YORK. - A Shanghai Rem
go News Agency dispatch published
in yesterdays New York Times gives
the lie to the claims of Wall Streets
tool, Chang Kai Shek, of "huge
successes" against the Chinese Red
armies. The dispatch quotes a high
British officer as saying sit was high
ly improbable that the Chinese gov
eminent troops would be able to sup
press Red forces in Kiangsi Province"
The officer, just returned from a
months inspection tour of the pro-
vince, as an imperialist ally of the
traitor Chang Kai Shek, admits
that the Kuomintang's troops were
demoralized and military command
ers pocketed war funds supplied by
the Marking government"
THE troops" he said, mad not
been paid for months. and, conse-
quently, they had taken to looting"
He admitted that the Kuomin-
tang troops were terrorizing the
Chinese people, and said the mas
ses "were more favorably disposed
toward the Reds than to the troops
sent to protect the populace."

Eugene Gordon. writer of note,
in penning an account of the re-
cent Boston meeting at which
PickenS was one of the speakers,
describes the activities Of the stage
comedian in a very amusing man
ner as he states:
"Then came Mr.. William Pick
ems, and the audience forgot where
it was an guffawed. Pickens has
that effect on one, it seems. He
appeared to like 1t. Launching i'm
mediately into an account of his
visit at Scottsboro, he described
the case with all the noted Pick
ensian humor. The audience was
now In festive frame of mind.
Those who had sat slumped in
their seats, evidently expecting to
hear sordid details of an unpIeas-
ant story, perked Up and smacked
their lips. 1t was as If, having
been bored by tenth-rate stunts at
vaudeville show, their favorite
comedian had suddenly come upon
the stage. The chief laughing
point of the speakers talk was his
description of the difficulties of
the nine boys would have encoun-
tered trying to rape two white
prostitutes atop sandpile on a flat
car. Every time he alluded TO
that point the audience forgot its
surroundings, its culture, its apings,
and laughed aloud. II was a great
show"
"And such a description of the
mistrial is about the same as has
been applied to him on numerous
occasions before as he cavorts over
the country at the expense of the
unsuspecting group who are duped
into paying their funds into the
useless National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People"

The Afro Americans editorial
which is captioned 1.-THE Reds Are
Ahead" further points out the great
er effectiveness of the methods of
the League of Struggle for Negro
Rights and the International Labor
Defense in mobilizing the workers of
the whole world, and several groups
of famous European and American
writer's and scientists in defense of
the nine innocent Scottsboro boys
and of the outraged Negro People.
1t declares:
ut may be reasonable to say 1t,
however, as the Scottsboro case
stands today, the Communists have
the National Association for the

licked.
"The Reds are not only national,
they are international. A word
from Moscow sent bricks hurting
