betrayal to force the workers back.
The N, Y. "Times" claims that Nazi
and Communist workers are strik-
ing to destroy the trade union. The
truth is that hundreds of NaSi adj
herents, workers employed on the
transit system, followed Communist
leadership into a united front for
an immediate strike aaginst the wish
es of their fascist leaders. The lies
spread by the "Times" and the So
cialists about the cooperation Of the
Communists with the Nazi leaders
are exposed by the Times dispatch
itself. An A P. dispatch in the same
issue of the Times states that the
Nazi strike leaders have decided to
call the strike off because the gov
ernmental arbitration board had
made a final wage cut decision.
How short lived lies arel Here we
see Nazi, Socialist and Communist
workers in true united front from
below striking 100 per cent while the
Socialist and Nazi leaders do all they
can to break the strike. No wage
cuts, not even one cent off wages is

thousands Of German workers are
following their leadership. 1t is the
Socialists and Nazis' hard luck that
this had to happen just on the eve
Of the German Reichstag elections
This strike is an object lesson that
will make many thousands of Berlin
workers resolve that on Sunday, Nov.
6th. their slogan must be: VOTE
COMMUNIST
THE REICHSTAG GREETINGS
On Sunday, the new Reichstas
viii be elected in Germany. Already
we hear reduction in the boastful
claims Of victory made by the Nazis
BY now they claim only 40 per cent
Of the total vote. The Nazis' consis-
tent sabotage of the strikes against
Won Papen's wage cuts has revealed
their protestations of undying oppo-
sition to Won Papen and linden
burg to be nothing but an empty
sham. Those German workers still
unisled by Hitler are beginning to see
this and 1t is expected that the Nazis
will lose millions of votes as COM
pared with the July Reichstag cleo
Z tiorSff The up-Surging strike wave
throughout the country, with work
ers out on strike under Communist
leadership, and against the Socialist
trade union bureaucrats and Nazi
leaders will most certainly cause
hundreds Of thousands of Socialist
workers fed up with Socialist betray-
ais of labor to shift their vote to the
Communists.
Moreover, huge numbers OF the
German middle classes feel deceived
By Hitler's failure to achieve tangible
results, and their swing towards mon
archisln will be reflected in an in
crease OF the Nationalists' vote.
To sum up, the Sunday elections
IN Germany will show q huge drop
In the Nan vote, while the Social
Democrats will also lose considerably.
A large part Of the Na2i losses will
Be absorbed by the German Nation
ANsts; the OBJECTIONS from the Social
Democrats will be gained by the
Communists, who will also gain large
numbers Of workers who followed
Hitler's leadership until the present
strike wave.
Gegrnany's Sunday election will be
b signal for the American working
egass to follow the example Of their
German brothers and VOTE COM
