PUSH BLOODY
TERROR ON
CHILE MASSES
Dictatorship Tries to
Disarm Workers
of Santiago
ARREST ARMY OFFICERS
u. S. Concern Boasts
of Breaking Strike

Murderous attacks on strikes and
gatherings of workers, mass arrests
and threats of summary execution
were continued yesterday by the
bloody Chilean fascist dictatorship
headed by Carlos G.. Davila, Wall
Street agent and former ambmassa-
dor to the United States.
In addition to arrests of hundreds
of revolutionary workers, the dicta-
torship last night arrested Is petty
officers of the Ferrocarrilero Regi-
ment on the charge of distributing
leaflets calling for the overthrow of
the dictatorship. The former avia-
ton corps lieutenant, Diego Arozeno,
was also arrested. These arrests in
dictate the growing disaffection in the
Chilean armed forces,
Edict to Disarm Workers.
The dictatorship issued an edict
aimed at the complete disar1ning of
the working class and setting drastic
penalties for the carrying of arms. 1t
threatened the workers with new
blood baths, declaring that attacks
ON the rights" of private property
will be ruthlessly repealed" 1t threat
ened with military trial and sum-
mary execution all striking workers
who did not Immediately return to
work. This is the murderous boss
class government defended by the
American Socialist Party as a genu-
inc socialist" government!
The American bourgeois press yes
terday boasted that, as a result of
the bloody terror of the dictatorship
and the threat of summary execution
against strikers, che railroad and
bakers strikes have been broken. The
American owned Braden Copper Co.
(of the Guggenheim interests) also
boasted that its striking workers had
been driven back to work.
Fear Communist Move.
All open-air meetings of groups of
more than three persons" have been
forbidden. A 10 o'clock curfew has
been established in most cities, with
the workers ordered to keep off the
streets after that hour.
In spite of the bloody terror
against the workers, bourgeois press
dispatches from Chile still express
the fear that these measures would
not be sufficient to check Commu-
nists in Santiago, and that there
would soon be a determined effort
by Reds there" This fear is based on
the fact that the conditions of the
impoverished workers and ruined
peasantry are rapidly growing worse
and that the toiling masses have no
way out of the crisis except through
revolutionary struggle.

WORRYING
GERMAN FINANCIERS
Hear Three-Per-Cent Tax on
Large Fortunes Planned
BY Government

Berlin, Aug. 27.-(HD-Bankers were
concerned Saturday with rumors that
the government, in cooperation with
the Reichsbank, intends to expand
credits for carrying out its proposed
economic program by imposing a
three-per-cent capital levy, thus es-
Gaping initiation and avoiding de-
parture from the gold standard.
Briefly, the reported plan is this:
All persons possessing fortunes above
a certain stipulated amount must
surrender three per cent as a pa
triotic duty. The yield on paper is
expected to be about two billion
marks ($500, 0O0, 000).
But, since thousands of Germans
possess only frozen assets, the gov
eminent will not insist on cash pay
ment, but will accept instead promis-
sorry notes which the Reichsbank is
ready to discount on the ground that
the government stands behind them
as guarantor.
The governments search for funds
to finance its projected employment
program may embrace a reduction Of
interest rates on Germany's inland
debt, it was said.
Such a reduction might embarrass
German financiers who borrowed
from American investors and reloan-
ed to Germans. The Americans, con-
se6uently. would be affected by in
terest reduction on the inland obliga-
lions.

that the army secret service only last

it had been used for printing fake
