lie Journal deS DebatS", an organ
Of the Right opposes the pact with
the frank declaration that it hamp-
erS TO some extent the activities of
French Imperialism in organizing the
anti-working war front and attempts
to minimize the trade benefits to
France Of such a pact, peddles the

openly states:
"On the other hand, the day when

an international bloc against Boil
Shevist activities, France viii be
unable to join"
The international working class,

let government in its fight for peace
full relations and non-aggression
pacts with its capitalist neighbors.
viii be under no illusions that
France will be unable to join" in
iniperialist armed intervention
against the Soviet Union. The world
war and Japan's present adventure
in ManchuHia all show that the most
solemn treaties become scraps of
paper" when it suits the convent
ence and robber aims of the imper-
ialist bandits.
In the meantime, French imperi-
alism is continuing its huge Ship
ments of war material to Japan,
along with the French vassal states
in Europe and U. s. and British i'm
perialisms.
These war moves are covered up
by the capitalist and socialist party
press, Only the Daily Worker ex-
poses this criminal conspiracy against
the lives of the toiling masses. Every
worker should read the Daily Worker
and support its present subscription
drive.
Following the lead of its French
masters, Poland yesterday ratified
the non-aggression pact with the
Soviet Union.
Prepare New Chaco Battle.
In South America, the armed
struggle conducted by U. S. and
British irnperialismS through their
local puppet governments increased
in intensity yesterday, with the Bo-
ltvians throwing fresh forces and
arms and munitions recently received
from the United States into the un-
declared war between Bolivia and
Paraguay N ne Gran Chaco. Boliv-
ian troops, demoraized by the recent
victories of the Paraguayan forces,
have been withdrawn and new troops
thrown into the battle lines. Both
governments have made elaborate
preparations for a new battle at Fort
Saavedra. Bolivia has succeeded in
bringing up long range mortars and
has successfully used a shrapnel bar
rage to hold up the advance OF the
Paraguayans.
Boys AS Cannon Fodder.
The Paraguayan government has
ordered all able-bodied men TO report
for military service and has even
called to the colors Boy Scouts be-
tween IA and II years of age, in a
desperate effort to smash the Boliv-
ian lines before Bolivia can orga-
nize all its resources, including aid
by way Of war credits, ETC., from
Wall Street.
The Paraguayan government.
which is being secretly supported
by British imperialism, Is reported
carrying on the war under tire
nendous financial difficulties.

U. S. for More Poison Gas.
U. S. army officials are demand
ing new appropriations for chem
ical warfare, in addition to already
huge appropriations for the army
and navy. These appropriations
were made in the face of the "eco-
nomy" drive by Hoover to slash an
additional $700,oO0O0O from the
wages of the poorer paid federal
employees.
Arms Against Masses.
The Japanese government has
doubled its war budget for the next
fiscal year. Japan is buying auto
giro planes as well as other war sup
plies in the United States. Japa-
nese War Minister Arah has brushed
aside considerations of the huge
deficit caused by the new war APP
propriations with the statement that
they are necessary "since many ele-
ments are preaching Marxist doc
trines in Japan" Which means that
the arms are to be used also against
the revolutionary workers and farm
ers within the country.
In the meantime, the Japanese
are rushing new troops to Manchu-
ria, progressing ever nearer to the
frontiers of the Soviet Union, while
using the demand by the Soviet gov
eminent for the removal of the
Japanese Military Mission from ST.
IBERIA, as a pretext for new war pro
vocations against the US.SR.
