"Sbread and Win Laurence
Strike" Says NTW Board Meet

Delegates from Lawrence mills de-
scribed how the strike started in the
spinning room Of the Wood Mill.
They told humorous stories about the
failure Of the carefully concocted
propaganda of the American Wooden
Co. officials intended to persuade the
workers to take the cut. When the
manager of the Wood Mill told the
workers that everybody, even he, him.
self, was to take the cut. the workers
asked him what his salary was and
whether he couldn't afford it better
than they could. Payment Of low
wages to workers and huge salaries
to the big bosses is tradition with
the American Wooden Co. President
Wood used to get 100000 a year,
plus all expenses. Just what the
present president. Noah, gets, is not
known, but 1t is something COM
parable.
One delegate told how he had
worked nine years ago in the spin
ming rooms in Lawrence and, what

DULUTH, MINI, Oct. 27.-Over
1900 workers took part in hunger
march to city hall, and despite the
threatening rain, paraded to the
capitalist city government to present
their demands. The city hall was
packed with police when the workers
arrived. A delegation. however, was
allowed to go into the Council meet
ing. The City Council tried to evade
responsibility for unemployment re-
lief. The unemployed delegation
forced the City Council to have
special open session to listen to the
jobless workers and the demands for
relief on october 80, at p. m.
Several hundred workers marched
from the Square to Camers Hall,
where an organizational meeting was
held. The workers pleaded support

WAR RUMORS
AIMS AT USSR
Wall Street Admi t S
Japanese Will Not
Leave Manchuria
A gre ID to BY u. S.
Exploit Chin a Under
Monroe Doctrine"

While the Japanese continue send
ing more troops into Manchuria
under agreement with the United
States and France the capitalist
press is gradually increasing the ru-
mors of Soviet troops being moved
toward the Manchurian border and
munitions being shipped to "inde-
pendent" generals within Manchuria.
All of these rumors are part of the
preparations of the imperialists to
draw the Soviet Union" into the
Manchurian conflict-to attack the
Soviet Union.
The financial editor of the New
York American admits that the view
prevails in well informed quarters
that Japan intends to solidfy and
make permanent her position in Man
churia." The "well-informed quar-
tiers" which are the source of this
view are the leading banks in Wall
Street which have prepared the Sec
ret understandings with Japan and
with France regarding not only the
redivision of China but of part of the
British colonial empire.
Bitter attacks on Great Britain are
being made by the Japanese impe-
rialist press. This is reported by the
New York Times Correspondent in
Toxic as follows:
''Press attacks on the British at
titude at Geneva continue. Several
journals today suggest that Britain
is trying to ingratiate herself with
China in order TO regain Lanca-
shire's trade and counterfeit jap
anese competition"
In the special statement which was
made to the press of the United
States by Hikoichi Motoyama, the
publisher of the Toxic 'Nichi Nichi"
he states that the invasion of Man
churia by Japan is in the interest
Of the United States thus admitting
the agreements of the two imperialists
for the redivision of China.

Warns of Dangers to

British In Attack On
Conference

The last official conference of
Laval before sailing for France on
Tuesday was the meeting With Thorn
as Lamont Of ]. P. Morgan and Co.
Before leaving for the United States
Laval conferred in Paris with j. P
Morgan himself. The conference with
Lamont completes the conference Of
the United States and French i'm
perialists which started not when
Hoover met Laval but when Morgan
met him. and which ended not when
Laval left Washington but when he
left Thomas Lamont.
The firm Of J. P. Morgan and Co.
was the leader of the United States
!mperialists in the conferences with
the French iInperialists for the re-
alignment of the world imperialist
powers, for the preparations for the
attack on the German revolutionary
masses and on the Soviet Union. The
final stage In these conferences was
the Lamont-Laval meeting after
which, the New York Times reports,
mo information was given out as to
the purpose and nature Of this con-
ference"
At the banquet Monday night Laval
reemphasized that the main fight Of
the imperialists is against the Soviet
Union. He mentioned this in the hy-
pocritical phrases common to capital
list diplomats as follows:
"The duty Of statesmen Is to ne
glect no practical method Of COOP
GRAFTON for the common sood-as
we declared yesterday in Washing
ton. While respecting their nation
al traditions and laws, they should
seek means TO protect every home
against poverty and our civilization
against the dangers TO which 1t Is
exposed.
This is the ideal which guided us
during our conversation"
The statesmen Of the imperialists
realize that the working masses Of the
world are looking more and more to
the path taken by the workers and
peasants Of the Soviet Union as the
way out of capitalist class, war and
crisis.
For this reason and in order to
widen the markets Of exploitation the
imperialists are intensifying the at
tack against the Soviet Union, where
the working masses are celebrating
