east, the large scale military often
sives of the japanese against the
Chinese masses, are more than ever
exposing the futile hypocrisy OF the
speeches of the imperialist delegates
at Geneva.
The delegates from the large inn
perialist powers having all spoken In
the opening sessions, the floor was
given over to representatives of the
smaller nations, Tuesday, chief among
whom was President Giuseppi Motta
of the Swiss Confederation and Sir
Thomas Wilford of New Zealand.
Both of these speakers spoke with
an air of distrust and suspicion, which
the previous imperialist speakers at
tempted to point out did not exist.
'If the present conflict is not set
tied, said M. Motta, "our confer
ence will be condemned to carry out
its work in an atmosphere of pro-
found depression"
Sir Thomas was even more en-
phatic In speaking of the role of the
League of Nations Council, in which
he still admitted he had hopes, the
New Zealand representative said:
1.-The League Council is showing it
self incompetent"
Foreign Minister Ernesto Bosch of
Argentina, speaking for the grain
growers of his country, disclosed the
fact that the capitalists of his coun-
try were itching for a war as a way
out of the deepening agrarian and
economic crisis. The theme of DR..
Bosch's speech throughout was not
disarmament, but rather a plea for
the uninterruption of trade routs dur
ing the time of imperialist war

mentality of civil populations starry

Il Is the major task OF the Com

technical preparations for The defeat
OF the Chinese revolution, the partition
of China and the destruction Of the

weeks are critical TO the history OF
(capitalist) civilization" Bickel sadly
told his hearers in an appeal for
closer cooperation between American
and British inperialists in the Far
East.
Bickels speech was filled with
hypocritical pacifist phrases. He pre-
tended the greatest horror at the
aetial bombardment by the Japanese
of the unfortified Chapel section Of
Shanghai. A representative of Am
erican imperialism, Bickel made no
mention of the crimes of the Wall
Street imperialstS who at this very
moment ar ewaging a furious lynch
ing terror against the oppressed
Negro masses in this country, have
sentenced millions of Negro and
white workers to starvation through
unemployment and cold blooded
denial of relief, and are using war
ships to lombard unfortified Chinese
towns in the Soviet districts Of
China and to crush the revolutionary
movements of the masses of Ell Sal
vador, Nicaragua, Haiti, the Phil
lipines.
Bickel similarly covered up the
crimes of the British imperialists who
at this moment are shooting down
the revolutionary workers Of India
and Africa. Bickel's speech, stripped
Of its pacifiSt camouflage, is a call
for united front of the United
States and British imperialists
against the Chinese Revolution and
its advancing Red Army, against the
revolutionary struggles of the COL
onial masses and against the Soviet
Union, where unemployment has
been abolished and the working class
is constantly advancing to higher
levels of cultural and economic we'll
being precisely at the time when tens
of millions Of workers and ruined
farmers are sentenced to starvation
in the capitalist world,
Increased Danger of Armed Clash
Over Loot
The presence Of huge japanese
army in Shanghai and the Japanese
plans for an offensive up the Yang
TIE Valley are causing grave concern
to the nited States and British inn
perialists, who see no way of re-
straining the japanese, short of the
use of armed force, from taking more
than their share of the loot in China.
Within the past few days the danger
of an imperiahst war over the divi-
sion Of the spells in China has been
greatly increased.
The Japanese imperialists are in
an even more desperate situation as
the result of the world crisis which
is engulfing capitalism than even the
rest of the imperialist world, They
have temporized with the protests
and warnings of the United States
and England whose loot in the Yang
tie Valley they are now threatening
These powers now threaten 10 take
sharper measures against the Jap
anese. Yesterday the League OF
Nations Council, acting on the de-
mand Of England and the United
States, sent its first sharp note TO the
Japanese. A Geneva dispatch re-

EkONklN fDD fhOm EAOb ONEb
an appeal to the workers Of the
whole world against the terrible dan
ger of a new imperialist world war
conjured up by the japanese crimes
in the Far East. The appeal refers
first of all to the appeal which was
adopted at the session of the Exec
utive Bureau of the RIL.U. on the
18th of December last year at the
proposal of the Japanese delegation
The appeal drew the attention of
the workers of the world to the dam
ger of imperialist war and in par
ticular of a war against the Soviet
Union arising out of the japanese
drive into Manchuria.
The new appeal points out that
in the meantime japanese imperial
ism has occupied almost the whole
of Manchuria and has extended the
field of its operations to Shanghai
where by a bombardment Of a de-
fenseleSs town thousands of Chinese
toilers, men, women and children,
were butchered. At the same time
the japanese were continuing their
drive towards the North and were
bombarding Hardin, the centre OF
the administration of the Chinese
Eastern Railway, which is under
joint Soviet Chinese control. The
Japanese aim is to attack Soviet
China and to prepare for an attack
on the Soviet Union.
French Communist Party Leads
Struggle Against War
The appeal calls upon the work
ers to form a revolutionary united
front against imperialist war, against
capitalism, against fascism and a.
gainst the treacherous social demo-
cracy. It calls for meetings in all
factories and organizations to deal
with the urgent danger of war. A
special appeal calls on the munition
and transport workers to prevent the
supply of war munitions to impe-
rialist Japan.
The French Communist newspaper
"Humanite" published an appeal OF
the Central Committee of the Com
munist Party of France calling on
the French workers to hold meetings
in the factories and in the open air
to protest against the crimes of Jap
anese imperialism in the Far East,
and in particular against the dan
ger threatening the Soviet Union.
The group newspapers, the party
newspapers and leaflets are to deal
in detail with events in the Far East.
All Party committees have been
given urgent instructions to meet i'm
mediately and work out a plan of
action against the imperialist war
danger. The Communist deputies in
the French Chamber and in all other
parliamentary and municipal bodies
have been instructed 10 place them

The whole party is strsining every

conducted in close connection with
