CHINA LOAN Is
TO FIGHT REDS"
BY RYAN WALKER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. - While
Congress is preparing plans to spur
war against the Soviet Union by de-
claring ban on imports from the
U. S. S. r., the Senate, under the
leadership of Senator Pittnan. silver
magnate, is preparing plans for in
tervention in China through a $780,
100000 loan to Chang Kai Shek. The
money will also be used to strengthen
Chang Kai Shek's fight against the
revolutionary workers and peasants.
The battle for the Chinese markets
is growing intense. The Canadian
bosses, with the cooperation OF
Britain, are proposing a loan to
China to unload 100,oo0,000 bushels
Of surplus wheat. The Senate Com
mittee, through Pittman, who owns
most of the silver mines in the United
States, is leading an attack against
the Canadian plan to give Wall Street
the upper hand in the proposed in
tervention in China.
The Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee will call in Owen D. Young.
Thomas w. Lamont, J. P. Morgan
and Bernard M Baruch, big Wall
Street bankers, to propose details of
this scheme.
A recent editorial In the Soviet
newspaper, For naturalization,
pointing out the sharpening differ
ences between the boss powers over
China, says: THE Chinese market be-
comes the center of special attention
of the capitalists of the whole world

RENEW PLANS TO
DEPORT SERIO
Fascists Spread Lies
About Worker

NEW YORK.-The release of Guido
Serio on bail has intensified the &C.
tivities of the italian Embassy to
deport this militant leader to Italy
where he will be legally" executed
for his anti-fascist activities and
through the Musselini embassy in
Washington the italian fascist press
in New York and elsewhere have
taken up the fight to deport Serio.
AS soon as the International Labor
Defense secured the release of Serio
on $1,000 bail through the vigorous
efforts of workers organizations, the
fascist press in New York carried
articles of 1r1isinforination about Serio
charging him with being an anarchist
favoring the overthrowing of the gov
eminent by force and violence.
The New York Belletino della Sera
said:
Guido Serio, the notorious anar-
chist who has fought for many
months against being deported to
Italy where he was sentenced to be
shot for his violent anti-fascist
propaganda :"
Immediately following this infor-
nation of the intensified campaign
to deport Serio and other militants
for their working class activities the
I. l.. D. organized subcommittee
with one representative from each
1. L. D. language committee and with
representatives from the National
Executive Committee to give special
attention to the fight against depor-
tations.
The first meeting of this committee
will take place Friday, January 9, at
five O'Clock in the National Office
of the International Labor Defense
the following statement OF facts was
issued:
During the year 1880 the 1. L. D.
fought nearly 100 deportation cases
ir all sections of the country The
deportation weapon will be used dur
ing the year 1891 on an ever increas-
ing scale by the ruling class. This is
shown by the following report
planned by the Fish Committee; leg
islation already before Congress; the
declaration of the new secretary Of
labor, reporting there is need for
strengthening the laws relative to the
deportation of those aliens affiliated
with organizations advocating the
overthrow of the government In
this situation the International Labor
Defense must develop a most ener-
getic defense of workers facing de-
port ION, raising sharper than ever
the right of asylum for all political
re- Igees in the United States"

A S2,5OO,OOO,OeO DEFICIT.

When at the end of the last fiscal year, June 30 last it was announced that the United States Government had expended almost S1,00000000o more than its revenues otaled there gasp of dismay from the nation. There lack of realization of the consequences of such condition in the affairs of the nation.
 Now it is clear that last years national deficit was but starter. A Treasury Department an- nouncement issued recently indicated a deficit of s66l ,l20850 for the first quarter Of the current fiscal year At that rate. at the close of the year, June 30 1892 the country will be in the red in the sum of $2644483400 in it's operations for the 12 months, more than two and one-haf times that for last year. Clearly this cannot be allowed to continue. It is equally plain that rigid economy, the elimination of unnecessary expenditures by the wholesale, will not be sufficient to balance the budget. There will have to be increase in taxation and possibly some taxation
