NORTHERN WAR
..-a
LORDS MOVE IN
POWERS RIVALRY
But Chief Worry Of
Marking Is Success of
Lungs Red Army

NEW YORK, July 1o.-The Japan
ese-donlinated Chinese northern war
lords have commenced the long i'm
pending attack upon the Marking
government. according to a cable re-
port in the New York Times.
The northern war lords are moving
some 10000 troops against the Nan
king troops in Honan province.
That the chief worry of the Chang
Kai-Shek hangnen does not lie in the
attack of the northern warlords so
much as the successful movement of
the Red Army under the command
of Ho Lung, is indicated in the dis
patch to the Times:
1.-THE only disturbing phases of.
the military situation in this area
is the recent success of the Com
rnunist bandit leader, Ho Lung, in
Northern Hupeh, west Of the Pei
ping Hankow Railway. Should Ho
Lung capture Siancyangfu he
could threaten to cut the Peiping-
Hankow Railway and isolate the
government troops in the Hsuchow-
Chengehow-Kaifeng zone.
The growing antoganism between
Japanese and American and British
imperialism is reflected not only in
the military vancouver of the north
ern warlords but in the proposed
boycott of Japanese goods.
"A nationwide boycott against
Japan continues to appear inevI-
table, though the movement is not
favored by the more conservative
government officials. In this con-
nection interesting reports record
the arrival at General Shin Yu-
sans headquarters of many Japan
ESQ military advisers" the New
York Times report says. -. .......

Boss News Agency Admits Attack On
Choppers Aimed to Smash Their Union

Workers Will Defend Themselves!
The colored and white workers of
Alabama will defend themselves
against racial and economic oppres-
sion in spite of the terror of the
landowners and their agents, and in
spite of the traitorous activities of
the N.A.A.CP. leaders and other
Uncle Tom reformists. In his state
ments to betray the struggles of the
Negro Peple, william Pickens has
gone so far that some sections of the
boss press finds it difficult to agree
with him, as is to be noted in Mon
days editorial in the so-called lib
erar New York Evening Telegram
This editorial sharply criticizes those
who raise the ever-ready cry of
Communism" to justify the police at
tacks on the choppers. Pickens and
Walter White, in statements to the
boss press on Sunday both attempted
to justify the police attacks by say
ing that the Communists had been
agitating the troopers. The Tele-
gram says of Pickens' treacherous at
tacks:
I'VE wish we could go all the way
with William Pickens, field secretary
of the National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People, when
he says:
cit must have been the aim of the
Communist agitators to deliberately
middle the matter and stir UP trouble.
1t is desperate and vain effort to
win the so-called Negro proletariat'
to the Communist Party. They mis-
understand the situation and the
pschychology Of the American Negro
and of the South"
If Liberals Can't Stomach Pickens'
Treachery Who in the Hell Can.
If even the taking liberal section
of the boss press cannot swallow the
sinking treachery of William Pick
ems, how does this Uncle Tom traitor
who attempts to depict the Negro
masses as habitually servile, as pos
sessed of slave psychology, expect
the Negro People to tolerate him?

Reflected in the figures for this

trfct > which shows that the Red

advantage of the startling ex-
posures' in this weeks Daily
Worker on the maneuyerfngs of
the imperialist war Imongers in
Germany and the coming war.
New York starts the list OF in
crcases this week with an increase
of 202, mostly due to the splendid
way in which the Red Builders
have been selling the paper ON the
street. All districts should en-
courage street sales of the Daily.
Especially now that workers

The other increases are District

wage cuts in the factories and on
the railroads of Council Bluffs.
Many small factories have been
closed down in the last week in
Council Bluffs. For instance, Grif-
fin Wheel Works shut down, laying
off rs workers. A. L. Root g. Co.. a
honey factory, has laid off over two
thirds of their workers Wednesday
and in few days expect to shut
down the factory completely. The
workers that are still working, are
working from to z hours a day
with wage cuts corresponding with
the reduction of hours. The eight
railroads that concentrate in this
region and make this a railroad
town have been laying off workers
every week, speeding the ones on
the job and in some cases cutting
their wages through individual wage
cuts and cutting wages on de-
partment scale.
When the workers of Council
Bluffs demonstrate on August First
against the attack on the Soviet
Union, they will at the same time
demonstrate against these wage cuts
and lay-offs and against the speed
up that the bosses are pushing main
tain their profits.

lay that has already occurred in the

Philadelphia
In New Philadelphia, Ohio, as re-
suit of the wage cuts that are con-

with. For example, at a recent meet
ing called by the LID the city Off
Gals refused permission for same. de-

(By a Worker Correspondent

SEATTLE, Wash.-Here are a few
facts from the agricultural areas of
Washington that il read with under
standing by farmers in the state will
wake them up to the need of organ
izing.
Over in the Yakima Valley Of this
state, there is what is known as the
richest agricultural area in Wash
ington, watered by the governments
vast reclamation, irrigation projects"
VALLEY chamber Of commences usual
line). There is in the heart Of this
area a project known as the Teton
project. This is one of the oldest in
the state and one of the first that
the government ever undertook.
During the last session of congress,
a petition was drawn up by some of
the Teton farmers. This petition
cited the following:
This area CTieton) contains some
$4,000 acres and over 1900 families
Land is admirably adapted for the
production Of some of the finest
fruits. This land must be opened by
the raising Of alfalfa, clover, etc. This
takes time and money. This is neces-
Sary to open the land for orchard
pursuit. Present return on common
farm products is about $25 an acre.

cation bitches. dams, etc.. A total

Families Leave Land
A careful survey was made of 100
families. Of these one-fourth were
leaving the land under pressure"
presumably bank foreclosures, etc..
That the average income on which
a family must be raised and the gen
eral expenses of the farm be paid
comes to about $500 which is not suf-
ficient. The petition asked for two
thirds reduction in the construction
charges for ten years. 1t pointed out
that the future prosperity of the Or
chard land was assured Not seeing
that this was the reason for the
pressure" of the banks who want to
own the land when it is in such con-
dition); that most of them were

senator from the state Zones. pre-
sented a bill leaving it to the dis
erection Of the secretary of agricul-
ture" ogrant this moratorium. Then
the secretary's discretion was not to
grant it and more families have left
the land, also under pressure"
Banks Own land
In Yakima there is only one bank
not making depositors give a 90 or
80 day notice on withdrawal of funds.
In another part of the valley, z. farm
er cannot borrow over 5000 from the
local bank without getting an OK
from the center bank at Spokane
This is because the Federal Land
Bank and the private banks really
own the land already.
In one town in the valley they held
an election TO vote one mill increase
on school tax. This was defeated and
the school board retrenched. They
cut off the school buses and farm
ers' children will have to walk as
much as 20 miles next winter in
order to get a free American edu-
cation"
These few facts come to light IN
the richest area in Washington and
make one wonder what the condition
of poor farmers are really like in
the rest of the state. The farmers Of
the valley will find that by organizing
into organization that they run them
selves and fight in as a whole, that
they will be able to get this govern
ment to grant them full morator-
ium on taxes and a full release on
construction payments which they
have made several times over if they
could find the real figures for this
work
The United Farmers League, Box
"a. Superior. Wis, is such an organ
ization. Farm women will find that
by fighting and only by fighting will
they be able to get back the school
buses which are vital parts of what
little education their children get.

only weapon that can whip the banks

world wide demonstrations of pro-
test on August First. These dem
constructions will serve to rally the
masses of the entire world against
the capitalist system which muir
ders Negro workers for daring to
organize against racial and eco
nomic oppression, which deports
foreign born workers to their death

which is to day preparing war

have abolished race hatred and
national oppression.
Mass Protest Force Police Retreat.
In the face of the rising storm of
working class indignation, Chief of
Police Wilson, of Camp Hill, has been
forced to retreat from his former
cynical position in regard to the four
missing troopers who are though to
have been lynched by the police At
first telling the capitalist press that
they went out to get stove wood
and haven't returned yet" this police
murderer Of Negro workers has been
forced to resort to living denial
that the four workers have been
lynched. But if they have not
lynched, what has become of them?
The working class will continue to
thunder this question at the police
and landowners of Tallapoosa Coun-
ty, Alabama
The colored and white workers of
the United States forging a fighting
alliance against the white ruling
class, will also raise the demand for
the unconditional release of the ar
rested troopers as well as of the
Scottsboro boys. They will demand
that if troopers are brought to trial
they be tried before a jury of work
ers, at least half of whom shall be
Negroes. And in face of this fresh
terror and bloody persecution of the
Negro workers, the working class will
support more militantly than ever
the demand of the Negro majorities
of the BLACK Belt" for the right of
self determination, the right to form
and control their own government,
the right of State unity in the BLACK
Belt" the right to bear arms, the
right to form defense corps, the
right, in brief, to defend themselves
and to abolish the murderous rule
of the landowners and their police
and court agencies.
