Against the Robber Campaign Of
Japanese Imperialism in China

perialists themselves. This organization of colo
NAL powers has on this occasion once more re-
Yealed itself as an instrument of the imperialist
organizations for intervention and annexation
1t has only been able to adopt decision which
defers to the susceptibities of Japanese i'm
perialism and which consequently constitutes an
encouragement to the latter to extend their &C.
cupation without being able to offer to the Chi
nese in their distress anything more than a re-
commentator to negotiate directly with their
aggressors.
It is not these recommendations, nor the emp
ty patriotic phrases of the Kuonlintang led by
the executioners of the Chinese toiling masses
but the revolutionary action of these masses
themselves and of the anti -imperialist forces in
all countries, and the continual energetic pres
sure of the oppressed peoples throughout the
world, which will compel Japan to give up the
attempt to impose its yoke on the population
of Manchuria and will force them to withdraw
their army of occupation. &
The invasion of Manchuria by Japan is not
merely an act of banditry against the indepen-
dence of the Chinese people. It is also directed
against the Soviet Union. 1t is new step in
the preparation for an imperialist war against
the country which is building up Socialism, the
SlIlCeTe ana CnOrOugn-BOlrlg supporter OF the
national movements for emancipation in the
colonies and subject nationalities Thus the i'm
perialists and enemies of the USSR. are at
tempting to consolidate and reinforce the front
of their attacking position. In order to disguise
the character of the Japanese aggression, the
international imperialst press has spread the
false news that there exists an entente between
Japan and the Soviet Union with regard to the
occupation of Manchuria That is nothing but
lie and base calumny. The proletariat,
which has ruling power in the U.S.S.R., as well
as the toiling masses In every country, are al
together solid with the oppressed masses Of
China in opposition to the imperialist invaders
and the regime Of violence and terror Of the
Kuomintang.
The League Against Imperialism, in the name
of the anti-imperialist masses and organizations
throughout the world, voices its most emphatic
protest against the robber actions of Japanese
imperialism in Manchuria. 1t calls upon these
masses to compel Japan to evacuate the invaded
territories by supporting the demonstrations and
protest meetings organized by the sections and
affiliated and sympathizing organizations of the
League, and by giving their active support to
the anti imperialist campaign.

Six Out of Ten Children
Starving!

Don't take our word for it. The statement is
made by that despicable organization that calls
Itself the New York Association for Improving
the Condition of the Poor"-and seeing that they
remain poor. - s. a
1t says in circular worker sent us that
large number of children from a crowded
tenement neighborhood where unemployment
has been acute for over year. are being
examined An alarming situation is disclosed
Six out of every ten children are suffering
from malnutrition'
Malnutriticn is a polite word for starvation.
More, the circular shows that starvation has
always been present among these poor children.
but that now it is widespread 1T says:
'Tn 1929 1871 per cent of all children ex-
amined were diagnosed .maInutrition,; in 1880
the number had increased to s5s per cent and
in 1881 it is so per cent. The same situation
is found to exist in other districts of Man
hattsn and the Bronx
Now, then what to do about itP Higher wages
for those workers who have a job? Unemploy-
ment insurance for the jobless? Not on your life!
The capitalist charity peddlers who run the
Association for Improving the Condition of the
Poor" would never, never advocate such Dol
shevism"! All they say is that rich should give
a few dollars to them to finance fresh. lair
camps" So 49,
And what does the Department of Health OF
the Empire State" of New York do about it. Not
one damned thing! But-wait a minute 1t DID
do something
AT the cost of this State, it printed a fancy
looking folder recently, dated at Albany and
signed by Thomas Parran Commissioner OF
Health, and gave these to the Borden Milk
Trust to distribute to housewives and to the
children in schools supplied by the Borden COM
pany. The first paragraph reading:
"The present decrease in the per capita
consumption OF milk and milk products in
families, due to curtailed income, Is viewed
with grave concern by health authorities, who
fear that there may be consequent impair
ment of health"
The rest of it simply urges people to buy more
milk But-this scoundrel of Health Com
missioner has nothing to say about the robber
price charged for milk by the Trust he gives
this free advertising to. This trust, in the
schools, sells milk to children at cents half
pint, or TWENTY CENTS A QUART! Milk
that cost 1t not more than FOUR CENTS!
With so per cent of the children of the poor
suffering from starvation, the burning question
is CHEAPER MILK in the stores and FREE
MILK in the schools! Don't allow the Milk Trust,
the World Telegram or any simple minded folks
confused by Them to sidetrack the issue into
chatter about pure" vs. impure" or loose"
versus 'sbottled"!

THE GROWING ANTAGONIST OF
INTERESTS BETWEEN THE I'M
PERIALISTS INCREASES THE DAN
GER OF WAR AGAINST THE Z. S.S.R.

| The effort of capitalism to solve the crisis
at the expense of the proletariat and the work
ing peasants of all countries is leading to
general capitalist offensive on all fronts against
the toiling masses Of the capitalist countries
and simultaneously and inseparably linked up
with 1t, to the acceleration OF war preparations
against the U.S.S.R.
The growing world economic crisis and the
struggle among the imperialst powers for
markets intensity all imperialist antagonisms
and cause them to become exceptionally acute.
The danger of armed conflicts between the i'm
1 perialist powers is growing. But the growing
antagonism of interests between the imperial
lists does not diminish, but, on the contrary, in
creases the danger of war Of intervention
against the U.S.S.R,

That Nest of Snakes

We mentioned recently a. nest of snakes that
goes under the names of the brotherhood Of
Russian Truth" with secret political headquar-
tiers In New York and another office at Hartford,
Conn, though we're not supposed to know about
that, either.
In their program put out to the public, they
only hint at their methods" saying that 1t is
mo picnic" and that it is dangerous" and so on.
But in recent strictly confidential letter 10
their members, these plotters OF assassination
and mass murder of the Russian workers eyes
and the American workers who are there helping
the Five-Year Plan) spoke up brazenly Ihe
brotherhood of Russian Truth" aims, it says:
"To cause trouble to the Soviets wherever
possible to organize acts of terror against the
Commissars and the unrepentent Communists,
to unite all men ready to fight into secret
fighting units, to provoke mutiny In the RANKS
Of the Red Army, and finally to bring ABOUT
general armed upheavaI.'
The Hoover government Is shelter1ng and even
inviting these plotters and assassins and main
tains carefully covered connections with them
though the fact that stimson's sister is one OF
their chief financial hackers has been exposed in
the Daily Worker.
With Stmsons permission, no less than Arch
duke Cyril Vladimirovitch. who claims to be
Gar of Russia a cousin of Nicholas the Bloody,
is making secret trip to America to confer with
the lesser snakes already here, and confidential
agents Of "our" government, no doubt to map
out plans for war on the Soviet Union and the
re-establishment Of capitalism under this GEAR
Cyril
The confidential letter sent out by the Broth
erhood" to It's members, states that certain mon
archists have already been named for office in
the government they hope to establish when the
Sovets are destroyed. 1t also cautions that the
brotherhood" don't participate openly in AM
erica in the anti Communist campaign (evdently
leaving that to the socialists" the A. F. of L.
and other native reactionaries), because says the
letter, so as not "to render the life OF Russian
exiles more difficult"
But 1t is our guess that when the American
workers get wise to this nest Of snakes that is
hiding among them, they will naalA them plenty
unhappy. -.--A-A----4.--4.-...-l--.44-

THE American Federation of Labor union Of
fcials, the citizens committee, with Mayo
Landers, Peter Carr and the rest of the mill
owners agents are preparing new sell-out for
the workers of Lawrence.
The first thing done was to take away the
right of the majority of the workers to use the
Common" Then they decided to force upon
the workers the "so-called officials" of the
American Federation of Labor They gave them
the right to use the police station and the city
Common for meetings. But the workers will
follow the leadership of the Red Union-the Ma
tional Textile Workers Union.
Now the bosses, the whole bunch got the
help Of the Immigration Department. the Fed
eral Court and the police They said: Get
Edith and Murdoch OUT They have done this
as part of their drive to force the workers back
to work" with wage cut. The answer of the
workers must be, "We are out in general strike
We demand not cent off our pay"

group of strike breakers to break the soldar-

alton with the States for the i'm

specialists in the United States De-
partment of Agriculture have OBJ
served the evidence of unusual in
terest of farmers and stockmen in

The department regularly grants
certificates of recognition to these

the words "Purebred Sires Used Ex-

ments received in the campaign in
March showed that II per cent of
the stock owners requested these
signs in addition to the regular GER
tificates. The sign is printed on
heavy weather-resistant cardboard
and is autographed to resemble a
bronze tablet.
A recent development in the CAM
paign for burebred sires is the in

and livestock specialists have shown
in holding meetings and distributing
the signs to stock owners qualifying

lice that the man had been murder
ed, verdict of death due to
drowning was given. Young had
been missing since February 25,

made his home with Ernest and
Frank Freeman for the past IL

for him was conducted for some
time after his disappearance, dur
ing which time several creeks We're
