ARMS MEET SHOWS
UNITY AGAINST
SOVIET UNION

Foreign capitalist press dispatches.
in commenting on what thfg cal
strides toward disarmament at the
Geneva conference, stress the poin
that the conference is dir ided intc
two groups: one group sup porting tn
French proposals for ar imperialis
police force, the other supporting
the proposals of American imperial
ism for armament under the veil
peace talk.
The only real and sincere propos-
ais for peace, the proposals of thu
Soviet Union for immediate and to-
tai disarmament are being brushed
aside by the capitalist war mongers.
The Geneva dispatches, indeed, only
give them brief mention or do not
mention them at all. The actions Of
the delegates at Geneva makes clear
that, although divided amongst
themselves, the imperialist delegates.
like the nations they represent, are
united on the policy of an armd at
tack against the Soviet Union and
the Chinese Soviets.
Although the capitalist press has
continued to report that the Tar
dieu plan for a world imperiaIis,
army, which is directed against the
Soviet Union and the colonial mass
es, has had little support among tn
imperialist powers, P. J. Philip, writ.
ing in the New York Times, lets the
cat out of the bag. The Tardieu pla,
is looked upon fayorably by man,
Of the big powers.
Philip says;
1T has become apparent that
while few are ready to go as far a
France has boldly proposed nearI
all those who have big neighbor
seem to feel the weight of that argu
ment about sheer numbers and
incline toward the setting up of a
international force of some kind
with the preference going toward
idea of big international air flee
which, from the skies, would at leas
menace any offending party"
Thus the disarmament" confer
ence moves on to the next act, wi
all the imperialist powers arning j
mad attempt to crush the USS.I
and the struggles OF the toiling mass
es at home.
