than the rails and some Of the spe-
cial issues moved into new nigh
ground for the year.
Railroad bonds we're strong and

lied partially from early fractional
receSsions.

erations was noted in some sec
tons, this Improvement being con-
sidered highly significant as one of
the first indications Of a rise in the
major indices Of business.
In the utilities, Standard Gas is
sues, notably the preferreds, made
wide gains. Consolidated Gas was
in fair demand. American Tele-
phone moved up more than a point

ing to a new high for the year at

American Banker" on bank fail
ures which totaled only sixteen in
the last week, the smallest weekly
toltal in two months.

construction contracts for the
month of July also was considered

Communist Candidate
To Speak at Parade
Grounds

MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.-Seventy
May Day arti-war demonstrations
win be held in the Minnesota Dis
trict next Sunday, the largest num-
Der of demonstrations ever organ
lied in this district.
A gigantic May LIST demonstra-
ton and parade will take place in
Minneapolis, at which william
Schneiderman, Communist candi-
date for Governor, and ]. NJ Kar-
son, Communist candidate for Con-
gress, will be the main speakers.
Mass pressure OF the workers forced
the mayer and police chief to grant
TO the United Front May Day Anti
War Conference permission to hold
the demonstration at Bridge Square
and march to the parade grounds.
The demonstration will be pre-
ceded by three rallies at Fifth and
Cedar, Sixth and Bryant and the
Court House, at PM, and the
workers will march to Bridge
Square, where the demonstration
gets under way at pm. follow
ing which a parade will take place
through the heart of the city to

school and the organic chemical
department is to go. Inorganic
chemistry, however, viii still be
taught. / think no explanation is
needed. This is the department
that has to deal with explosives.
'Jn the school the students are
told that the Russian Communist
Party will betray the workers just
like the socialists did in England
and Germany. Gandhi, the betray-
er of the Indian masses, is held
up as the great liberatOr" of the
workingclass.
eau the propaganda is of very
subtitle nature. In order to pre-
pare the minds of the students for
a united imperialist intervention,
the capitalist agents here point out
that the job of the world now is
to save Climate protect the Chin
ese people against Communism.
Zone of the professors here sent
out an invitation to the students
to come TO the home of nOtOri-
Gus CRATER whose wife was mis-
SiOnary in the vanguard of the i'm
perialists invasion into China. The
meeting was called supposedly to
study Chinese art, but it turned
out to be a propaganda class a.
gainst Communism.
THE war propaganda, however,
is not as effective as the bosses
agents would like it to be. The
expected enthusiasm for the new
world war seems to hit far below
zero among the workers and stud
ents. They are becoming conscious
of the fact that a war means that
the workers will pay with their
lifes blood for the further ensIave-
ment of themselves and their fell
low workers."

German Workers Protest
Scottsboro Verdicts; World
Wide Demonstration May z


Preparations for Interna-
tional Scottsboro Day, May 7,
are in full progress. On that
day, as well as on May l, mil
lions of workers in the United
States and all over the whole
world will pour into the streets
in indignant protests against
the bloody Scottsboro lynch
verdicts sentencing seven of
the nine innocent Scottsboro Negro
boys to burn in the electric char.
The other two boys are still held scr
new trials.
The Canadian Defense league has
called upon its district councils ard
all affiliated organizations TO push
the preparations for International
Scottsoorc Day A Statement issued
by the League declares, in part:
"The Scottsboro verdicts come on
the eve of the plans Of the Amer
lean iinpeTialists to plunge The Ne
gro and white workers iuto a war
against the Soviet Union. White
and Negro workers must unite 20
struggle for the defeat Of these
war plans and against all forms
of capitalist oppression. A united
working class, black and white,
must struggle and must determine
that the Soottsboro boys shall not
die. May : must be the rallying
day for protesting masses of uni
ted workers in Canada, Of all ma
tons and eoIors, against tbis legal
murder by The capitalist class. For
the release of the D framed Scots
boro boys! For united working
class against war on the Soviet
Uni0n."
German Workers Ia Fierce Protests
AS part of the preparations in Ger
many, a Scottsboro protest meeting
was called in Altona by the Inter
nctional Of Seamen and Dock Wol6-
ers Jointly with the German Fed
Aid. The meeting was a great sue

The representatives of the Afri-
can and American workers desert
bed the frightful oppression of the
Negro race by the capitalists, and
pointed out numerous examples
showing the miserable lot of the
American Negro toilers under cap
itaIism. All the speakers stressed
the necessity Of joint struggle of
all toilers, of whatever tolor, race
or nationality against tie iInpe-
rialists. The meeting unanimously

Guards.
On the pretense that they had
found discriminating evidence" on
the person of the Soviet employee of
the Chinese Eastern Railway ar
rested on the charge of having dyna-
mite in his possession, the police ar
dested 10 other Soviet citizens.
At the same time the Japanese
Foreign Office gave the line to the
Japanese bourgeois press for an in
tensified war melting campaign by
issuing a statement insinuating that
the Soviet Union was responsible for
the wreck of a japanese troop train
few weeks ago, declaring that the
attempt had been carried out in the
same manner and on the same spot
as a similar incident during the
Russo-Chinese conflict of 1929
The Japenese Foreign Office for
got to add that the similar incident"
also had been carried out by the
White Guards, who at that time at
tempted to effect the seizure of the
Chinese Eastern Railway. Instead
the Foreign Office declared that IF
all information thand were made
known it would convince the world
that Communist Russians were re-
sponsible for the recent train wreck. 3"
AS an excuse for the failure to back
up its statement with proof. the
Japanese Foreign office stated it
would be premature" to give out fur
Their information at present.
In the meantime, three additional
Japanese Army brigades were rushed
to the Soviet border on the pretext
of fighting insurgent Chinese troops.
AT the same time, the British Ameri-
can imperialists in Shanghai, South
China, were reported pushing plan
by which the Kuomintang betrayers
of China would concede to the Japa-
neSe demands at Shanghai and thus
enable the Japanese to transfer a
large number of troops now at
Shanghai for service in Manchuria-
on the Soviet borders.
