Onte0 frcSS StaIt correspondent
. BASLE, Switzerland, Dec. "a. U.P)
An immediate and complete new
deal on war debts and reparations
to evert new disasters" is called
for in the report of the interna
tional experts who have been
studying Gcrmany's capacity to
pay
Germany's inability to resume
payment after the expiration OF the
present Hoover moratorium. and
economic conditions prevailing
throughout the entire world make
such international action neces-
sary the advisory committee of the
Young plan reported.
The committees report. which
will be referred TO the interested
governments including Gcrmany's
principal creditors. called the gov
ernments' attention to the follow
ing important conclusions:
Germany is justified in declar-
ing her inability to resume pay
ment on some $268,000,000 condi-
tional reparations in the year fol-
lowing the Hoover debt holiday.
Transfer of payments from one
country to another on the present
scale can only accentuate the fl
nancial crisis.
Adjustment of all reparationS and
war debt settlements to harmonic
with the present troubled world
situation is the only lasting step
toward world confidence.
The linking of war debts and
reparations definitely raised the
question Of the policy of the United
States government which has re-
garded the two issues as separate.
This adjustment should occur
without delay If now disasters arc

MENSHEVIK PLOT
EXPOSED AT MASS
MEETING, MAR. IS
Get Facts on Hillquit
and AbramoWitch
Shown By Trial

NEW YORK. - On Wednesday.
March 10, at Central Opera House,
81 Street and Third Ave, the Com
munist Party will hold a meeting ex-
posing the role of the socialist party,
of Hillquit, Thomas, Abramovich, Dan
and the other Menshevik plotters
against the Soviet Union. Their war
plots have clearly demonstrated in
the trial just concluded in the Sow
let Union, for which the IA counter
revolutionary plotters in the Soviet
Union received up to 10 years SEN
tence.
The workers still following the So
cialist party will be given a splendid
opportunity to see their" party in
action. The acts Of the American
socialists who on the one hand have
protested sympathy for the Russian
people" and, on the other hand, had
engaged in damnable, foul conspira-
cies against the government of the
Russian workers and peasants, show
the character of the socialist party.
1t is party Of treason to the work
ing class.
Leading members of the Communist
Party will speak at the meeting.
March Is is also the anniversary OF
the Paris Commune. The Paris Com
mune taught many lessons to the re-
evolutionary working class, and the
leaders Ct the Russian Revolution
profited much by these lessons in
preparing for their revolution. This
day will also be concentrated at the
meeting.
All workers in the shops should at
tend this important meeting. Bring
along followers Of the socialist party,
so that they may hear the truth about
this reasonable party. Make this
meeting a meeting of demonstration
for the Soviet Union and against all
traitors to the working class.

active.
A curious feature of this
strike is that the employers are
mostly Japanese, holding land OF
lease from white lawyers or through
dummy corporations. The employ
ers are bringing the national issue as
sharply to the front as they can, cal
ling to their help all the japanese
population in California. They are
bringing in Japanese as strike break

some Americans and Mexicans as
scabs, but are relying on japanese,
whom they are filling with the wild
est national chauvinism, representing
that it is their duty to help the ia
panese employers smash this strike.
State supports Employers
Although there is no hesitation on
the part of the state authorities to
use just this sort of national preju-
dice against the japanese, in this
case all local authorities and the
American landlords and capitalists
stand solidly with the Japanese en-
ployers.
The police have already arrested

lief and for the Workers Unemploy-

The National Unemployed delega-
ton to Washington plus the humid
reds of hunger marchers to various
cities and states have proven to large
sections of workers that the govern

no relief to the unemployed, and that
it requires much greater political
pressure in order to force the gov
