The miners here are mobilizing to
help pull out the Rex mine, owned
by the same company that runs the
Peabody mine.
The miners met Immediately after
the show Of terrorism on the part of
the coal operators gun thugs and
planned their action. They passed
a resolution declaring they would not
permit the operators TO clamp down
a reign of terror such as they have
in Harlan County.
The miners have all been out on
strike since Jan. LIST. The resolution
called for struggle for unemploy-
ment insurance, endorsing the Feb.
4th notifications, calling for fight
against imperialist war and for the
defense of the Soviet Union.
Miners Demands
The miners put forward among
their demands the right to trade
anywhere they please, and the
right to have as guests in their
homes whOmever they please, re-
CARELESS of the fact that their
shacks are on company owned
property. They stressed the struggle
for the elementary rights to or
ganize, strike, picket, hold mass
meetings and free speech.

Hardin Menaced by Japanese Army
Reports printed in the imperialist
press that communications on the
Chinese Eastern Railway have been
interrupted are incorrect. Trains are
proceeding according to schedule.
The Japanese demanded permission
to use the railway for the transport
alton of their troops to Hardin. The
Soviet Union replied that the rail-
way was under the joint adninistra-
ton Of China and the Soviet Union,
and 1t was therefore necessary for

by the miners has thus far saved his
life
Yesterday at nightfall, Dan Brooks,
Gertrude Logan and miner walked
out onto the highway near the COM
pany owned store. A carload Of gun
thugs drove up behind them and
tried to provoke them. They flashed
their headlights on the three, Just as
the gunthugs Of Harlan did when
they killed the two miners at the
swimming pool relief kitchen.
The miner was able to get away
and mobilize the miners defense
corps. It was this action, and the
gun thugs fear of the well organized
miners, that kept them from shoot
ing. They hung out of the side of
their car leveling their revolvers at
the two strike organizers.
The next morning, the two who
had been hahrassed, along with a
group of 30 miners who form the
bulk Of the defense corps, marched
by the company store, where the
gunner hang out, to demonstrate
that the miners will not be ter
rorized.

In the course of the maniacal fury OF
the Japanese planned campaign of
frightfulness against the Shanghai
Chinese workers, and to diSarm the
resistance Of Chinese troops and
workers against the Japanese, while
holding the Japanese to their basic
task of attacking the Chinese revolu-
ton. This proposal was accepted
both by the Japanese and the Kuo-
mintang officials in Shanghai.
U. S. British, Others, Rush More
Warships.
In the meantime, the United
States, Great tkitain, France and
Italy continue to rush additional
warships and troops to China to car
ny out the joint attack on the Chin
csc masses and to restrain the jap
anese from encroaching on their
Interests" in China. The American
imperialist press boasts that the
armed forces of United States, Brit
ish, French and Italian imperialism
in China now exceed the Japanese
forces.

The U. S. Asiatic squadron reached
Shanghai yesterday, reinforcing other
U. S. naval forces already there.

Of Rear Admiral Yancy Williams are
also engaged up the Yangtze River
in attacks on the Chinese Red Army.

Socialists Cover Up Crimes of
Own Imperialists
In the British parliament, the
Labor Opposition leader George Lans-
bury also raised "the yellow peril" in
a typical social-democratic attempt
to cover up the crime of his own
imperialism. He referred to the con-
duct of Japan in Shanghai as "a
piece of international piracy" but
said not a word against the par
ticipation Of the British imperialists
in this International piracy and loot
ing of China.
The socialist Macdonald and other
leaders of the fascist British ma
tlonaf government reproved Lans-
bury for injecting the Shanghai sit
uation into the debate In parliament.
Macdonald, sending warships and
troops to shoot down the Chinese
masses had already declared that he
refused to place blame for the
frightful murder of Chinese workers
in Shanghai.
In the United Stataes, the So
cialist Party leader Norman Thomas,
duplicated Lansbury's hypocr isy.
With the United States imperialists
openly participating in the murder
ing and looting OF the Chinese
masses, Thomas calls upon these
bandits to stop the Japanese robbers.
He had not word of protest against
the crime Of United States i'm
perialisn, while scoring the crime of
other imperialists.

seize all of China, including the de-
sired loot of the other irnperialists,
At the same time, they are aimed at
holding the Japanese impertalists to
their role as the spearhead in the at
tack against the Soviet Union.
The proposals were also a move to
detract from what is happening
around Hardin, North Manchuria,
where the Japanese are carrying out
the announced intention to proceed
towards the Siberian frontier of the
Soviet Union.
The Japanese are reported to have
rejected two of the five proposals.
They refused to entertain the propo-
sition that they do not further in
crease their-armed forces in China.
This proposal is plainly aimed at
keeping their forces in China below
the forces the other powers are now
rushing thsre. This the Japanese re-
jected, giving as their reason the ly-
ing argument that Chang Kai-shek
was sending reinforcements to Shang-
hal. This the other robber iniper-
Jislsts know to be lie, being aware
that Chang few days ago attemp-
ted to disarm the troops already In
Shanghai, after these troops had de-
fled his orders and had Joined the
Chinese masses in resisting the jap
anese invasion.
Accept Proposal TO Disarm Chinese
Defenders.
The other proposal rejected by the
Japanese was turned DOM on the
grounds that it would reopen the
question Of the Manchurian seizure,

ing previously endorsed it are now
