THE WASHINGTON CONFER
F,NCE PREPARES FOR WAR

And the international Chamber Of Commerce,
for all of its invitation to college professors to
speak In the open sessions about the marvellous
economic advance OF the Soviet Unionj is hold
ing secret sessions on the question OF Russian
trade" the N. Y. Times Of May 8, stating that
this was new problem" which-"aroSe last
year. with worldwide concern caused by the
dumping Of Russian products"
This dumping" charge is ie workers! Old
Russia, under the Gar in 1913, had only S.o per
cent of the worlds export trade, and in 1880,
under the Soviet its share in the worlds ex-
port trade was only about half that Of 1918, in
exact figures only 10 per cent. How can Is,
per cent of the werld trade be considered a
menace" to the other es1 per cent? You can
see that all this hullabaloo about dumping"
is a lie!
But why do they lie? The answer is that it Is
necessary to Justify war against the Soviet.
But why should world capitalism make war on
the Soviet if it is not a trade menace? The
answer workers, is that the menace 70 capital
ism comes from the working class within the
capitalist countries
The Soviet Union is not only rapidly building
industry but it is building it on socialist basis
The workers of the Soviet Union have the 7-Hour
Day! The Soviet has abolished unemployment!
The wages of the Soviet workers are continually
going upward! While in every capitalist coun-
try hours are lengthened Millions OF jobless
workers are starving! Wages are being cut every
where
The capitalists. with the Wall Street bandits
in the lead cannot solve the crisis OF their
system without still further attacking the stand
ards of their wage workers. You American
workers! You see how, to protect their profits,
the capitalists refuse unemployment insurance!
How, to keep their own luxuries, they cut your
wages in half!
They know that the workers will fight back!
And they know that as long as the Soviet gov
eminent of Workers and Farmers lives and
grows, it is r. living proof that unemployment
and wage cuts are not necessary or inevitable!
AS long as the workers are inspired by the ex-
ample of the workers of the Soviet Union, the
attempt to solve the crisis by unheard-of and
savage attack on the workers of the capitalist
countries will meet the fiercest resistance,
strikes, growing every larger strikes and even
revolution!
This is the menace" which the International
Chamber of Commerce is trying to organize
against, workers The dumping" talk is only
to fool you! Just as Hoover, who makes dis
armament" treaty that provides Billions OF Dol
lars for new warships, comes to the washing
ton meeting to speak about peace!
The capitalists are preparing for war, work
ers. War against the Workers Republic and
war against your wage standards! This Is the
truth! And you must organize your defense!
Organize Shop Committees to strike against
wage cuts. Organize to defend the Soviet
Union, the hope and inspiration Of the toiling
and exploited masses of the whole world!

BY HARRISON GEORGE


If Hoover and his Conference" in November
1929 had openly told everybody that the en-
ployers were going to cut your wages and IRE
A few million workers, the whole working class
would have been up in arms. So they lied
told YOU things would be all Highland then put
the boots to you! That's true, isn't it?
Now. workers there are some more big lies.
Again the capitalists are talking nice and act
ing dirty. Read and understand.
In the city of Washington there is being held
the convention of the International Chamber OF
Commerce. In the midst Of world crisis OF
capitalism such as has never before been known,
these leaders OF world capitalism, who feel the
ground the capitalist system which they thought
so solid, giving way beneath their feet, meet to
decide what can be done-what they think can
be done-to save their system of wage slavery
of the many for the benefit Of the few.
The only great economic power not repre-
sented there, is the Soviet Union, the Workers
Republic This has been barred-slthough each
and every capitalist knows that any decision on
production and trade that does not take into
account the tremendous growth of Soviet econ
omy and its socialist character, is so many words
whispered to the winds.
Why then was the Soviet not invited? Ihe
answer, workers; the only possible answer is that
what world capitalism intends to do here, in this
washington meeting of the International Cham
Der of Commerce, is to unite against the Soviet
Union!
Two months ago the Daily Worker told you

Worker exposed the reason behind Dwight Nor

on pleasure trip, he will carry administration
(Hoover) authority to look into (a) foreign

1t was the Job of Dwight Morrow, Morgans
partner and trusted agent of Hoover, to pre-
pare for this very meeting of the international
Chamber of Commerce To intrigue in France,
now at the front of war schemes against the
Soviet Union for unity against the Soviet, but
with American imperialism with its vast sur
plus of commodities and credit, in the position
as boss of armed invasion
European capitalism has irreconcilable differ
ences with American capitalism; the American
tariff, the war debts and German PREPARATIONS
are points of bitter hostility. And the Wash

ferences But as the japanese capitalist Ken
kichi Kagmi, stated on Monday:

defeat. Later that year the Wall Street govern
ment had its old puppet, Diaz, put back IN the
presidency. But the Liberals continued to fight
and were only stopped when marines from
battleships were landed at Puerta Cabezas and
established neutral zones" They defeated the
Liberals and kept in power the faithful lackey,
Diaz
Then in April, 1927, Henry L. Stimson was
sent to pacify all factions, and buy off Moncada,
a general of the Liberal army, who had always,
as matter of fact, been in favor Of American
Intervention Moncada was, therefore, prompt
to comply when Stimson told him to put down
his arns-and be paid $40 apiece for then-or
have them shot out of his hands by the Amer
lean marines. Essentially a traitor, and having
presidential aspirations, Moncada took the place
of Diaz as imperialist tool. He was promptly
elected president in an election" run by marines
At that time only one Liberal general refused
to be bribed into betrayal by Stimson. In spite
of the fact that Stimson said in 1927 'the
civil war in Nicaragua is now definitely ended"
adding that SANDING had only so or so men,
the struggle has not ceased. The Yankee i'm
perialsts put $4,000 reward on Sandinos head
and have hunted him like a wild beast in the
mountains. Hundreds Of peasants and workers
have given their lives for the expulsion of the
Wall Street invaders from Nicaragua. The har-
Dor workers of Corinto once struck TO support

After training the Nicaraguan National Guard
to protect its interests and clinehing the power
of its servile Moncada, the bloody Washington
government now adopts new policy" But at
the very moment when it declares it will no
longer send marines to protect American pro-
perty in the interior Of the country, it is drop

slaughtering the heroic workers and peasants

Our Partial Youth Demands at Ford's

THE burning question facing every young
worker in a shop today, when he feels the
effects of the crisis in the form of wage-clashes
speed-up is: WHICH DEMANDS can force
from the boss which will better my conditions
IMMEDIATELY? How can do this and still
KEEP MY JOB?" 1t was precisely because our
League DID NOT answer especially the first
part of this question to the young workers in
the shops in which we were concentrating that
our last Enlarged Buro meeting stated as sharply
as it did that our basic shortconning in our shop
work in the Plan of Action was the fact that in
none of these shops was our work carried on
around a program Of PARTIAL DEMANDS
1t was only AFTER the Enlarged Buro meet
ing that we comrades tackled the question of
partial demands for this plant as a means of
organizing struggle through the Auto Workers
Union In drawing up these demands with the
Ford Nucleus we kept the following in mind;
1. The concrate conditions of the young work
ers in that plant.
g. Against what do the young workers kick
mostly?
8. Around what demands can we rally the
majority of the youth in the plant, for imme-
date struggle
In Ford's there are three categor4As of young
workers:
i. Trade school boys-aged from IL II.
2. Apprentices from IS to 81.
3. Young workers-who are not learning a
trade
Trade School Boys.
The trade school boys work mostly on the as
sembly line, in the motor building, and now have
been drawn even into the foundres, into sand
ing. A trade school boy starts with 20 cents an
hour and gets a cent raise every two months if
his work in the shop is recorded as fair" by the
foreman. who fills out report card" every six
weeks. By the time the boys are 18 they make
so cents an hour.
These boys spend two weeks in the shop
working hours day. The third week is spent
in school, for hours day. When in school,
they get paid for only hours work. The trade
school boys get lunch at the company's expense
the week that they spend in school, and the
lunch period is only 20 minutes 10 Of which are
spent on the lunch line. Trade school students

pay (wages same as when in shop, those be-

National Chairman of the Anti-ImperialiSt
Ieague1

National Chairman OF the Anu-lmpeIldHob
League.
IN order to understand the hypocrisy Of the
| Yankee imperialist bandits in Nicaragua,
workers should keep in mind the long history OF
Wall Street intervention in that country Here
are the highghts of the story:
Twenty-tllree years ago, in 1905 the United
States government sent battleships and marines
to overthrow the ZeIaya government of Nicara-
qua because Cd it was considering the cancel
lation OF the concession of a mining company
in which the U. S. Secretary of State had
majority interest; 90 it had failed to suppress
with sufficient "vigor" a strike in the banana
fields of United States companies; CD 1t had
placed a large loan with an English firm in
stead of in Wall Street.
This was the beginning of American inter
vention For several years, the tool OF Wall
Street interests, Diaz, was kept in power by
the u S. Marines. Whenever his regime seemed
to be weakening the American minister in Mica
ragua would wire, "A warship is necessary Tor
the moral effect" The vessel would be sent.
Once when some Liberals started revolution
Major Smedley Butler, the gabbling marine, was
sent from Panama with 400 marines to save the
government and the American bankers The
revolution was crushed, and an election held
under marine supervision" The candidate of
the u. S. bankers was easily elected
Diaz remained in office from 1912 to 1916 and
American naval officers later testified before
Senate investigating committee that he was
SO unpopular he could not have remained in the
country "a hours without the protection of the
u S. marines
Then came another equally Servie president,
Chamorro Major Butler was later asked by
U. S. Senator: How long would Chamorro re-
main if the marines we're withdrawn" Butler
laughed and replied, He wouldn't remain at all.
He would be on the last coach Of the train that
carried the marines from the capital"
In the meantime the bankers had sunk their
claws into most of the wealth Of the country
and loaned money to the government main
tanned in power by the marines. Brown Broth
ers and j. and w. Seligman g. Co., were the
chief bankers involved, and later the Guaranty
Trust Co. The u S. government had meanwhile
picked up the site for another canal and
naval base under forced treaty which accord
ing to the American customs collector in Mica
ragua, was IAN important link in the chain we
are attempting to forge, of preparedness and ma
tienal defense, and the protection Of our invest
ment in the Panama Canal"
BY 1924 a Liberal administration that tried
TO baik at some of the orders of Wall Street
somehow got into power. Only then we're the
marines withdrawn for few months Why?
To permit Chamorro TO start another "revou-
ton, financed by Wall Street. 1t was success
full; but when the Liberals were again gaining
the upper hand in their efforts to Dust the
Yankee agents, the marines were sent TO Blue

ment have to face The opposition parties, TAX
ing advantage of this situation-the republicans
in New York, assisted by the socialists-have be-
gun the campaign against Tamnany Hail. at
the same time concealing the fearful unemploy-
ment and the sufferings of the workers. They
are taking advantage of the clubbing and beat
ing of the workers by the city administration in
order to lay basis in New York for the coming
aldermanic elections. They see in this exposure
an opportunity to befudde still further the
issue, and to raise in the undertaking fashion of
years ago the issue of good" honest" clean
administrations of capitalism con-
Trajectory in itself, and conceal the basic ques-
ton: Shall the workers and poor farmers
tnue to support a system which is not only rot
ten but which is causing the misery of the
masses Of workers and farmers? .ys~
This is the fundamental question that the
muckrakers cannot raise, for both Of them, the
republicans and the socialists, are supporters OF
the present system and SILVER at the idea Of
change of the system. Both of them, in other
cities where they control, use the same methods,
and therefore must be judged not by their eager
ness TO "clean" City Hall in New York, but by
their practices in cities where they control.

After engaging in several important
engineering works in England and Aus
tralia, Mrs. William Fleming has de-
cided to give up her career and devote
herself to home building. She is the
only woman associate member of the
Institute of Civil Engineers; while still
IN her early twenties, she helped to
build dam in Northern Ireland Later
she took an important part in preparing
the drawings and calculations for the
Newcastle and F'ulham bridges, and two
years ago she was engaged on intricate
drawings and calculations for the great
bridge that has just been thrown across
Sydney Harbor in Australia.
Maybe could have had a brilliant
career" she says, but isn't a happy
marriage also brilliant career?"
