TO CHINA RED
ARMY GROW
Marking Thirtieth
Division Goes
Over to Reds
PRESSURE ON HANKOW
Red Ring Tightens
on Wuhu Cities

The second half of the Marking
Thirtieth Division mutinied yester-
day and joined the Chinese Red
Army, which recently inflicted q
smashing defeat on Markings main
army in Hupeh Province. The first
half of the division joined the Red
Army several days ago, during q
ten-day battle over 2O0-mile front
in which the Marking forces were
defeated.
Large Scale Desertions.
Desertions from the Marking forces
to the Red Army have taken on such
huge proportions that the Marking
government has ordered the sum-
mary execution of all officers and
soldiers who show hesitation" in
fighting the Red Army. A colonel
and two majors of the Marking forces
were executed yesterday on orders Of
Chang Kai-shek for "retreating
while under attack by Communist
troops"
A Hankow dispatch to the New
York Times states:
"The menace of the Communists
has grown greater recently and
other drastic steps have been or
dered to stiffen the morale of the
government troops"
The Chinese Red Army in HupeE
has been pressing it's \ advantage
against the Marking army for the
past two weeks, pursuing the Nan.
King right wing to Shu-shi on tflt
Yangtze River. The Red Army ha'
captured scores of towns, with the
workers turning out in tumultuoI
demonstrations to greet the entrance
of the Red Army. 1t is now tight
ening its iron Red ring around the
important strategic and industrial
Wuhu cities, which includes Hankov
and two other cities. The United
States, Japanese and British i'm
perialists have huge armed forces al
Hankow, including many recent bat
tleShip arrivals.
Other Red Armies Active.
Another Red Army is now moving
from the Central Chinese Soviet Dis
trict in Kiangsi Province to support
the operations in Hupeh Province
where the main struggle between the
rising Ssviet Power in China and the
Marking lackeys of the imperialist;
is occurring.

Newark Mass Meet
Tonight to Fight

NEWARK, Aug. 24-Many work
ers' organizations will participate in
a gigantic demonstration on Thurs
day, August 25, 7:3O pm, at Charl-

the right to the streets and free
speech. The demonstration will de-
mand the unconditional release OF

and reminded the workers that Com
munists are ever in the forefront in
the fight against wage cuts as well
as for unemployment relief and in
surance at the expense of the EN-
ployerS and their government. He
urged the Akron workers to form a
strong militant rubber workers in
dustrial union and promised all pos
sible support Of the Communist Par
ty, and of the Trade Union Unity
League, of which he is general sec
rotary.
Goodyear Gas Masks
Foster pointed to the growing war
preparations, and reminded the work
ers that capitalism sees war against
the Soviet Union and for more COL
onies as the best way out of the crisis
for the business men. 1t is no way
out for the workers who will have
to do the fighting, and the Commu-
mist Party demands mo imperialist
war" and calls on American workers
to defend the Chinese people and the
Soviet Union against imperialist at
tacks.
Right here in Akron, Foster stated,
the Goodyear Rubber Co., while cut
ting wages and starving its laid-off
workers, is making gas masks and
dirigbles for the next war. Poison
gas is being made along with masks,
at a special Goodyear plant.
Collect Signatures
The chance to vote Communist in
this state depends on getting $4,000
signatures within the next few days.
The law requires 10000 to put the
candidates on the ballot, but various
technicalities raise the number to 49,
600 more. And to put the Communist
Party emblem. the hammer and
sickle, on the ballot at the head of
the ticket, there bust be over 100000
signatures collected. The law is ar
ranged so as to give every advantage
to the republican and democratic
parties.
Foster took up practical plans for
giving the workers in Ohio the chance
to vote for their own conditions, and
urged upon them the Importance of
all turning out and rushing through
the signature collection just as ra-
pidly as possible.
There were 1,4o0 Akron workers at
Fosters meeting.

With the lnJsty prison smell still
clinging to their clothes, the three
men sat in the office of the Work
ers Ex-SerYicemeu's League at
Union Square and outlined plans to
build gigantic rank and file organ
ization and force the government to
pay the ex4servicemen's back wages.
I'm my opinion the bonus march
was only a stepping stone toward
victory in Our fight" said John Pace,
tall. lean, Kentuckian who led the
picket demonstration to the White
House last July.
"Our main task" continued Pace,
lis to build up a mass organization
of veterans which will fight with the
workers in their struggle for unem-
.ployment insurance and against wage
cuts. When Congress meets again
we must be prepared-better prepared
than before-to put up an effective
fight. We must have tn support of
the workers, Negro and white, every
where.
Anti-War Fight
Pace pointed out that in the very
center CT the fight for the bonus
must be raised slogan of struggle
against imperialist war and for the
defense of the Soviet Union.
1.-THE movement of vets has already
had its effects ON war preparations,
1t has disillusioned many ex-service-
men and workers in regard war;" de-
clared the vet leader.
Aside from being a leader in the
Workers Advertisements ague,
Pace is also candidate for Con-
gress on the Communist ticket in the
state of Michigan. Born in Ken
lucky, he has worked since the age
Of IL and served in the Marine Corps
during the war; Although PAGES an
cestors came to American during the
time of the American revolution, he
has been twice held by the govern
ment on deportation warrants, hav-
ing been arrested once for speaking
against the deportation, of foreign
born workers in Detroit and again
for leading fight for relief for the
unemployed.
Walter Flicker, ex-inachine gunner
in the third division, said: 1.-THE next
most important step in the fight for
the bonus is the National Conference
of the W.E.SL. to be held in Cleve-
land Sept %, "a, %.
I'VE must continue to expose Wa
tiers, who is using the prestige given
him by the capitalist press to support
the democratic politicians and smash
the fight for vets back wages"
said Flicker. THE rank and file in
preparing for the conference must
demand the release of Faulkner, Nc
Coy, Olsen, Harold Erwin and other
rank and file vets still held in the
Washington Jail.

leased yesterday was Beckworth john

FARM STRIKERS
ARE TEAR GASSED
1000 Picket Omaha;
Open Cattle Cars

SIOUX CITY, Ia, Aug. 24.-Deputy
sheriffs attacked crowd of farm
strikers picketing road leading to
Council Bluffs and threw tear gas
at them. Tear gas, the usual wea-
pom now against workers striking for
better living conditions, is now used
on the farmers striking against ruin
by the milk trust and big packers.
A group of SO men opened freight
cars at Danbury, Iowa, today and
drove the hogs back into the pen.
Then they told the owner, named
M. Barry, to take EN- back home"
The hogs were on their way to mar
ket through the farmers picket
lines.
Groups of men along all roads are
stopping trucks loaded with pigs,
cattle or milk, and tearing out the
ignition system wires. One truck
driver chased man who had turned
off the spark and taken the key, and
got back the key, but when he
reached his truck again someone had
let all the air out of the tires.
The conservative leaders of the
Farmers Holiday Association, which
called the strike, are aghast at these
militant tactics, and repudiate them
The leaders appeal to the farmers to
be strictly legal and passive, and only
politely request the drivers of scab
trucks to turn back.

and commend the good work and
achievements of such civic organiza-
lions and their leadership, hence the
following resolutions were passed;
"Whereas: Music, particularly band
and orchestra is essential to the de-
velopment of the better side of the
social life and is absolutely essential
to progressive community and
Whereas: the members of our
Scenic City Band have made great
sacrifice in time from their business
and have developed band worthy of
the pride of our community and,
"Whereas: our public schools have
developed band and orchestra that

to our civic progress, and for the
particular reason that from this
source must come the members of our

it develops in our public schools;
Therefore Be 1t Resolved, that
we commend our Board of Education,
