i. s. FACES HUGE
LOSS in TRADE
Dominions Try B a n
Soviet Products

The Imperial Economic Conference
at Ottawa, Canada, yesterday devel-
oped sharp attack all along the
line against American export trade
with the British Empire. Under pro-
poSals offered by the Canadian Gov
eminent, the United States stands to
lose most of its more than $3.50, o00,-
900 export trade with Canada as a
result of the sharpening trade war
between England and America.
Similar proposals, favoring British
products, are expected from the other
British dorninions, and from the
British ruling clique in India and
other British colonies.
The governments of Canada, Aus
tralia and New leland made de-
mand for an embargo on the products
of the Soviet Union, principally wheat
and timber. The British delegation
Is opposing this demand in view Of
the revenues derived by England
from her increasing export trade to
the Soviet Union, which is the only
country not suffering from the world
crisis and affords a large market be-
cause of its successful, gigantic So
cialist construction. The British del
egation met the demands of the do
minions with concessions to buy their
meat at the expense of Argentina.

The Daily Worker has exposed the cam
erican Freeman steal not merely as an ex-
ample of the particular rascality of E. Hal
demann-J Julius, but because this typifies the
demagogic methods employed in various
forms by the Socialist Party in attempting
to present itself as a party of the working
class.
The Socialist Party is attempting to mas
querade as a "friend of Russia" as favoring
the class struggle, as seeking unemployment
insurance, as favoring the abolition of cap
italism, etc., whereas in their day-to-day prac-
tices and policies they are opposed to the
Soviet Union, the class struggle, etc. Their
demagogic song is cover for their acts; the
swindle by E. Haldemann-J julius is the same
melody, sung in another and cruder key.

ANTI-USSR AIM AT
GORGULOV TRIAL
White Guardists In
Lying Testimony
Gable by Inprecorr)

PARIS, July 81. - The Gorguloy
trial today involved the police. Pietri
retired government minister, stated
that the police guard for the assas-
sinated French president Doumer was
weak on the day of his murder. Po-
lice Director Guichard defended the
police.
Guichard also denies that Mrs
Farrire. wife of a reactionary author,
drew police attention to the suspici-
Gus behavior of Gorgulov before the
shot was fired which killed Dou-
ner.
DR.. Logre, chief physician of the
Prison Hospital, presented Gorgulov
as actuated by exaltation arising out
of his obsession of mission, while
several insanity experts pronounced
Gorgulov fully responsible for his ac-
tons on the day of the murder.
Anti-Soyiet war proyocation feat
ured the second day of the trial in
Paris of DR.. Paul Gorguloy, white
guardist assassin of the French pres
ident Doumer, as the French imper-
ialists modified several witnesses in
a vain attempt to establish a connec-
ton between Gorgulov and the Soviet
Government.
The chief of these witnesses was
Ivan LaZaraff, himself white guard
and a former soldier of the forces
of the Tsarist butcher, General
Wrangel. Lazaraff without hesita-
ton" identified Gorgulov at the trial
as "a Soviet agent" after previously
failing to identify Gorgulovs photo
graph among a number of others.
Another white guardist named
Rosnovsky inadvently queered Laza-
roff's testimony by identifying Cor
gulov as member of the Green
Russians" organization, an anti-So-
Wet organization. The white guard
lists and their French allies then at
tempted a magic conversion of the
Green Russians" organizations into
a pro-Soviet body. But it did not
work.

The collapse of the Marking gov

The financial condition of the Man.

shaken by the world crisis and the
revolutionary upsrge of the Chinese
