THE TRIAL IS ENDED--INTER-
VENTION DANGER GROWING


Union, and the military conventions with Poland
and Rumania assumed more definite shape.
In this year Pilsudsk visited Rumania and the
Rumanian general staff officers visited Warsaw.
In this year the military cooperation between
Poland and the Baltic States was further con-
solidated. In this year General Lie Rond again
began to pay visits to Warsaw and Bucharest
and General Charny visited the Baltic States.
In this year the French military attache visited
Latvia and Esthonia and in the same year the
visit of the chief of the Polish General Staff
created general sensation in France.
From the confessions it is equally clear that in
this year the Union of engineers organizations"
was taken over completely by the Jeanin Com
mission Of the French General Staff and by their
Moscow representatives MN. K. and r. In
this year the Industrial Party began to turn its
activity in a military direction, and, together
with it the Kondratiev- Chayanov group and the
group Of the MenShevist remnants under the
leadership of Gromann
In the year 1929 shortly after the sterilization
OF the French currency French capital granted
to Runania a loan of 70 million dollars for the
purpose Of increasing its ornaments
In the year 1929, under the leadership of
France there was undertaken the provocative at
tempt on the Chinese Eastern Railway which
ended in a victory for the peaceful policy of the
w
of international Imperialism.
In the year 1929 not only the Comintern but
also far-seeing politicians of the bourgeosie
Poincare among them, foresaw a fresh accentua =
ton of the postwar crisis of capitalism, Shak-
ing of the Sterilization.
1t is true, the intervention was postponed,
thanks to the success of the Five-Year Plan,
but the aggravation of the crisis of capitalism
and the victory of the Five Year Plan caused
forcing of the preparations for Intervention This
year, 1929 saw the speeding up of the concrete
military preparations on the part of the Indus
trial Party and it's brother organizations in the
Soviet Union under the guidance of MN K and
R. At the same time the French General LIE
Rond and Franchet dEsperet carried through the
following military technical operations in the
Western Border States of the Soviet Union:
Strengthening of the Polish naval base of
Gdynia, construction of a strategic railway line
between Gdynia and Upper Silesia, in the financ-
ing of which the French armament firm of
Schneider Creuzot played the leading part: con-
struction of whole number of chemical fac
tories for military purposes in Poland; increase
of the output capacity of armament factories
and strengthening of the security triangle" (the
triangle of fortreSses. Radom-Przemysl-Tar
noWl erection of branches of the Skoda works
in Poland, and finally, the reorganization of the
Rumanian army.
In the military-political sphere the most i'm
portant event is the final strengthening of the
military influence of France in Latvia, Esthonia
and Finland, we'll as the realization of the
closest connection between the two largest arma-
ment undertakings: between the French Schnei-
der-Creuzot factory and the Czechoslovakian
Skoda works.
At the same time we see: diplomatic endeav-
ors on the part of France, aiming at German
Polish approchement in order to strengthen Po-
lsh influence in the Baltic States; conclusion of
an agreement with Denmark regarding the
straits; attempts to make of the Scand-
navian bloc in the interest of French imperial
ism; attempts to organize points Of support for
French influence in Turkey.
The year 1880, the second date decided on for
Intervention, brought an aggravation of the eco
nomic crisis of capitalism, including a crisis of
French capitalism and in this year the prepara-
tons for intervention were advanced from the
stage of diplomatic and military preparations TO
the stage of preparing the mind of the general
public. This year was the year of anti-Soviet
campaigns under French leadership, the year of
the Papal crusade, of the chase after the al
legedly missing General Kutjepov, of the Besse-
dovsky campaign, of Loucher's journeys in order
to prepare for Carols ascent to the throne of
Rumania, of the organizing of the East-European
agrarian bloc in Bucharest and Budapest and
finally the campaign against Soviet dumping"
That which Ramzin and his colleagues con-
fessed to the Soviet Court is only pale, and in
complete reflection of that which the government
circles and the General Staff of French imper-
ialisn have carried out since 1927 in preparation
for the war of intervention in 1880.
Against the lies of Poincare the stock exchange
figures speak an eloquent language showing how
business circles estimated the prospect of an in
tervention in the year 1881 At the very time
when the crisis of world capitalism caused the
shares of the soundest capitalist undertakings to
fall ten to twenty points lin the period from
July to october, 1890, the shares of the three
largest armament concerns of the world con-
stantly rose In the period from July list, 1880,
to october 7th 1880, the shares of vckers & Co
rose from &c to rs Pound Sterlings, the shares
of the Hotchkis firm rose from 1880 to 1894
Francs, and the shares of the Schneider Creuzot
works from 1884 to 1945 Francs
Millions and millions are rendered unemployed
as result Of closing down of works; the strong
holds of imperialist capitalism, the banks are
shaking. Banks are collapsing, but the shares
of the armament concerns are rising They are
rising because the output of the war industry is
being increased at feverish rate for the pur-
pose of war Of intervention against the Soviet
Union.
In the French Chamber it was charged against
perty were pure swindle The French big
bourgeoise is calling for Poincare who stabilized
the French currency in order to be able to &C
