While on the inside there are
peddlers selling candy, tooth paste
and what not, and all around men
selling capitalist newspapers, the cop
showed he knew what the bosses
wanted by grabbing the boy by the

NEW YORK.-Calling again
for a stronger world imperial
list military front against the
Soviet Union, Andre Tardieu,
French Minister of War and
leader OF the French delegation to
the Geneva disarmament" confer
snce, spoke Sunday night over an
international radio hook-up In Eng
lish. The speech was addressed TO
the great American public" and
urged the collaboration Of American
imperialism with French Imperialism
and the other robber powers In the
immediate establishment Of an inter-
national police force.
In demanding the internationaliza-
ton of all heavy civil planes and a
concentration of heavy ornaments,
aviation, naval and. military units
and placing them at the disposal OF
International imperialism "for the
purpose OF maintaining peace" M.
Tardieu brazenly exposed the vicious
snti-Soviet nature of the plan.
M. Tardieu said:
Let the most dangerous weapons
Of offensive war, namely bombing
planes, long range guns, capital
ships above 10000 tons, and large
submarines, be placed at the dis
n0sal of an international authority.
Get the League Of Nations or any
International authority recognized
By all have at its disposal such a
material force as ne single nation
could ever resist with any chance
Of success"
Surely the individual nations to
which NJ. Tardieu refers to are not
the United States, France, Great
Britain, Japan, who are now actively
engaged in the looting of China and
the wholesale slaughter of Chinese
workers. The nations against whom
NJ. Tardieu and the representatives
of the various imperialist countries
are organizing and against whom
Tardieu calls for the formation of q
more concentrated military bloc are
the colonial nations and above all the
Soviet Union.
''If this scheme is adopted" said
Tardieu, amy single nation will
suddenly become extremely weak

is obviously stalling for time until the

This grand jury was picked Satur-
day by Jones. 1t comprises one Of
the most vicious sets of working

man on it is either an operator, a

posals are intended, moreover, to
lessen the ever-sharpening danger OF
a clash between the inperialists over
Efe division of the loot.
Aimed At Strengthening Anti
Soviet Front.
These proposals are made at the
same time that the Japanese have
seized the North Manchurian city OF
Hardin and are proceeding with their
openly announced intentions OF ad-
vaneing to the Siberian borders OF
the Soviet Union. The proposals and
the Hardin action are both aimed at
maintaining the imperialist front
Both are attempts to submerge the
sharpening antagenisms between the
imperialists in the face of the greater
antagcrhsns against the Soviet Union
and the revolutionary struggles OF
the Chinese masses.
The five Chinese cities which the
japanese propose for immediate seiz-
ure by the combined inperialists are
Haakow, Shanghai, Canton, Tsingtao
and Tientsin. All five would make
excellent bases from which the i'm
psriaiists could carry on their war
against the Chinese masses. All ex-
cept Hankow are on the coast.
That Hankow, 500 miles UP the
Yangtze River, is included in the
cities to be seized shows plainly the
intention Of the imperiaiists to at
tack the Chinese Soviet Republic,
the only stable government In all
China today and the only force in
China feared by the imperialist
bandits,
Dispatches from Hankow on Sun
day reported that the Chinese Red
Army was within five miles Of the
city In q smashing advance against
the gunboats Of the imperialists and
the mercenary troops Of the Kuo-
mintang betraycrs Of China. Add
tionai imperiaiist warships are be-
ing rushed UP the Yangtze against
the Chinese Red Army.
An unconfirmed report states that
the Japanese forces in Hankow have
taken over the city with the aid of
the Kuomintang nlilitarists, who
doubted their own ability to hold it
against the Chinese Red Army in
the face Of . threatened uprising by
the workers In the city to welcome
the Chinese Red Army.
In announcing the japanese pro-
posals, the japanese official spokes-
man declared that such an agree
ment among the imperiaiints,
would recognize that some meas
ure Of international intervention is
necessary to give China peace and
stable government"
Consider Manchuria Japanese Loot.
The Japanese made it clear that
Manchuria was already part of the
Japanese loot and not to be con-
