.JAPAN'S INTERNAL POLITICS
BACK OF WAR" IN MAlN|CHURIA
Japan Tells League Of Nations 1t Is Not A War
But The Defense Of Japanese Property
In Manchuria Against Raids

property in Manchuria against raids
by bandits and by soldiers of one
of the two Chinese factions, who
are substantially bandits. China
contends that Japan is trying to
seize territory to which the Island
kingdom is not entitled under it's
treaty rights in Manchuria.
The situation is Of worldwide i'm
portance becaulc it is the first real
text of the strength of the League of
Nations. If the Leagues efforts to
prevent o. war should fail, that will
tend to weaken the authority Of the
League and greatly impair its in
fluence as a force for world peace.
On the other hand, if the League
succeeds in bringing about ces-
sation of hoctilities, itc position will
be greatly strengthened.
This fighting in Manchuria is also
of particular interest to the Unit
ed States, although we are not inenl-
bers of the League. The kellogg
Peace Treaty, by which nations a
gree to submit their difference to
the World Court originated in AM
erica. Under it our own State De-
partment has been trying on its
own account directly to. influence
Japan and China to stop fighting
until the controversy can be ar
bitrated, and we have also delegated
representatives of the United States
to confer with the council of the
League.
What complexities the matter still
further is the apparent divieion OF
Japanese public opinion on the sub
| ject. There is a strong Militarist
Party in Japan, which maintains
the old feudal traditions, and which
refuses to listen to any counsele
but its own. Japan, under old treat
les with China, has definite rights
! in Manchuria, including consider
able railroad mileage which is own
ed by Japan. To protect Japans in
! tereptS in the turbulent condition
of North China, Japan has main
tanned a small army in Manchuria
for several years, much as the Unit
eel States maintained force Of
marines in Nicaragua for several
years. And the situation in China
has very much resembled the situa-
ton in Nicaragua, because OF TWO
/ factions each claiming to be the
actual government of China. Both
factions had been maintaining large
armies in the field and large parts
OF these armies have degenerated
into mere banditry because OF the
inability of either faction to pay
| the soldiers wakes. There is no
loubt that the little Japanese army
in Manchuria found itself in con-
slant hot water in maintaining
semblance of order in Japan's
reaty territory. When its position
was not threatened by the so-called
Northern army under General Ma,
it was conatantly being harassed by
the unorganized banditry.

Southern Pacific
Establishes NerU
Delivery Service

Store-door pickup and delivery
service for freight is shortly to be
established on the lines of tie
Southern Pacific Company, through
the medium Of a SUBJ idiary, the
Pacific Motor Transport Company,
according to announcement Of L. B.
Young. Vice President and Manager
Of the latter company.
In announcing the new opera
ton, Mr.. Young explained that the
Pacific Motor Transport Company
furnishes a complete service from
the ctore-doo OF the shipper at
point of origin to the store-door OF
the consignee at point of destln>-
ton, all for one rate, the rates OF
TIE Transport Company being cote :
parable with those of other trans
portation carriers providing tie
same type of service.
The Pacific Motor Transport
Company's method of operation IS
to uae motor trucks in cities and
towns for pickup and delivery
work, performing the haul between
towns by rail, under contractual
arrangement with the Southern Pa
cific Company, according to the an
nouncement, the service offered to
it's patrons being complete in every
respect.
One of the outstanding features
of this new service is the fact, as
explained by Young, that instead of
purchaling their own trucks Tor
use in cities and towns served and
going into competition with local
draymen, the Pacific Motor Trans
port Company, in every instance,
has made a contract with local
drayman to perform this service
for the account of the Transport
Company. This patronage OF home
industry, Young stated, is part Of
the policy of the Pacific Motor
Transport Company to give as much
work as possible to local draymen
already in business in the towns
served, rather than go into compe-
tition with them.
Operations of the Pacific Motor
Transport Company are not new.
They have been in effect on the
lines of the Southern Pacific Com
pany and other railroads throughout
California and Oregon for about
two years, and the present opera
ton in Arizona is being undertaken
in line with the general expansion
policy of the company which has
been made possible by the favorable
reaction of shippers to the type OF
tervice offered by the Transport
Company.
Initial eervice will be between
Phoenix, Tucson, Yuma, Stafford
and Miami on the one hand and

HOUSE LEADER
EXPERT FARMER
Started AS Lawyer But
Call Of Agriculture
Conquered
BY DON E. CHAMBERLAIN


United Press Staff Correspondent
CARROLLTON, Ill, Dec. IL (U.Po
"A genial sort of gentleman
farmer, but not lacking in prac-
teal knowledge as to all angles
of the farm problem and possessed
of a pocsdble clue to the solution
of depression. Henry T. Rainey,
new Democratic Leader in the
House of Representatives is looked
upon by his fellow townsfolk as
one politician who will make the
country sit up and take notice.
Rainey, a veteran Congressman
with a record of IS terms behind
him, record which was broken
but once and that during the Hard
ing landslide in 1920, is hailed as
a man who will lead the way to
solution of many problems.
Just what kind of person this
man who has been selected by the
Democrats to take up the gage of
battle in the lower House of Con-
grecs is, might best be disclosed
by what two most famous fellow
tcwnsmen, one a Democrat and
the other a Republican, have to
say about him.
Praised BY TOwnSmen
They'll find no wishy-washiness
about Henry" says Norman l..
Jones, Democratic member of the
Illinois State Supreme Court, and
for Is years Rainey's law partner.
1.-The party picked a live one in
him and when he starts to moving
the other fellow will have to hustle"
"Ie is a real farmer" says S.
Z. Pierson, former banker and Re-
publican director of the State De-
partment Of Agriculture. He knows
farming thoroughly. He OWNS his
own farm and lives on it. 1t il one
of the finest farms in this part of
the state"
Rainey is a man whose life re-
cord shows versatility.
His father and grandfather we're
farmers, but he chose law. He went
to Amherst College, Massachusetts,
the same school which Calvin Cool
idge and the late Dwight Morrow
attended. There, before he gradual
cd in 1883 he was champion heavy
weight boxer and ran the 100-yard
dash in 1912.
Leaving Amherst he went to
Union College of Law at Chicago
from which he graduated in 1885
and was admitted to the bar in
1886.
Turned To Farming
He practiced law for some years
but of late has been occupied in
farming. His farm in this flat agri-
cultural and typical rural section

His, home is mis- pride and he has
INDUCED himself in several hob
bies, principally flowers.
He has thorough knowledge as
to problems which confront farmers
today. His ability both as prac-
teal farmer and as an authority
on farming is well established in
Illinois. He was given official reeog-

they easily become overexcited or tense,
near to giggling laughter and to tears.
Late Hour for Father.
"In many households the hour before
bedtime is the only hour when father
can be with his children, and this often
means that he plays vigorously with
them, stimulates them to laughter ana
excitement, tcSses them and jumps them
about, for he wants to see them have

its place, but it does not belong in the
late afternoon or the evening.
1.-The best amusement for bedtime Is
singing, a quiet game, story either
read or told the children. never a story
likely to excite th:m or inspire fear"
The book generally makes bringing up
the children a job for father as well as
for mother.

He is in absolute agreement with the policy
and only protests the facts, and after giving him
a hearing we agree that he has established an

expected him to follow the line Of an editorial
printed on June 18th, at meeting on May 22l
But at that meeting he had received the in~
structions about Daily Worker Clubs-yet they
were handsd to him only as he was introduced
to speak and naturally he had no time at all
to read them, and as he was billed to speak
about something else. didn't say a word about
them.
So that let's him out But, as we said before

leading capitalists of the United States in No
vember, 1929, wherein Green and other officials
OF the A. F. of L. agree that during the crisis
there will be no strikes against wage-cuts or for
higher pay 1t is the gunner in the local city
and state declarations who did their duty to see
that this policy was adhered to.
Further still, the American Feredationist In
1880 carried an article entitled How Capital
ism Can Save Itself" The answer given by
the American Federation of Labor is that capt.
talism can save its system of starvation, misery
and exploitation of the workers, its system of
bribery, graft and corruption by fascist rule
In this rule the A. F. of L. officialdom offers
its services To the fascist standard will flock
every gangster and gunrnan in the United
States 1t is to their common interest to keep
back the advancing revolutionary tide by every
means.
Socialists and Fascism.
In this process the socialist party plays a use
full role for capitalism. In Germany, the social
lists protect the fascist murderers they preserve
capitalism, laying the ground for fascism as the
final bulwark against working-class revolution
In Britain, the British labor party, part of the
socialist International creates within itself the
fascist party from its "left' elements, such as
Sir Oswald Mosley and j. J. Cook of the Miners
Federation. 1t orders the slaughter of Indian,
Burmese, African and Chinese workers and peas
ants to preserve capitalism the world over and
its imperalist rule
1t is clear that the crime crusades of the capt.
talists are not intended to end graft, corruption
or gangsterism. They have for their end to
make the workers believe there is a division or
separation between capitalism and its lawful
offspring Under capitalism it can never =,

mist Party and the Young Communist League,
puts up an effective battle against these black
hundreds and the fascist leaders of the American
Federation of Labor.
The only force that will effectively smash
this gang in the everyday battles against wage
cuts and for immediate jobless relief is the solid
organization Of the workers in militant trade
unions. Against all forms Of terror-attacks on
the foreign-born and Negro workers, smuggling of
pickets in strikes, killings of militant union men
who urge workers in the A. F. of L. to strike
against the wishes of the gangster leadership
the workers must organize their own defense
corps. This is an effective means of smashing
the gangster attacks as well as the attacks of
the police, carried on at the order of the bosses.
The workers in the Soviet Union have shown
the way to rid the working class of the entire
strata of capitalist parasites under whatever
name they appear.
The Communist Party in the United States
IN organizing the workers for struggle against
wage-cuts. for the building of the mass revolu-
tonary trade unions, against speed-up and for
unemployment insurance, at every step in fight
ing the capitalist masters, carry on a struggle as
well against their minions in the A. F.. of L., in
the capitalist courts and in the police depart
ments
But 1t will be the overthrow of the capitalist
system under the leadership of the Communist
Party, the establishment of the Dictatorship of
the proletariat and the roofing out of the whole
mass OF capitalist relations that will finally nut
an end to gangster1sn, graft and the murder
