During the present revolutionary
period, the Communist Party Of Cuba
has carried on an intensive recruits
ing campaign. increasing its mem
bership four-fold. The revolutionary
trade unions have grown to rmem-
bership of 10000; the Anti Imper-
islist League has grown from a small
organization to a mass membership
Of $4,000. The Young Communist
League now has d membership OF
close to 5000.
The delegates reporting this Sun
day night will provide a vivid picture
OF current struggles Of the revolution
ary workers and peasants Of Cuba
under the leadership Of our brother
Party.
Every Party member should feel it
his duty to bring as many of his
friends and shop-mates as possible
to this meeting on Sunday, thus help
ing to organize mass protest against
Yankee imperialism ready TO crush
the Cuban revolution.

If they had sufficient money or

Not Supporting Grau
Not for an instant do they (that
is, the A. B. G. and other counter
revolutionary groups editor, Daily
Worker) believe that our government
is supporting in any way the present
government. OF the same time they
know that a revolutionary overthrow
Of the present regime would not
bring intervention from us.

OEdT SiI -
Your letter dated Sept. 28th was
of great interest to me. At the same
time like your having addressed
your letter to me in the way you
did.
Referring TO the sending Of war;
ships to Cuba, the way it was an
nounced by the Navy Department in
Washington on Sept. Sc, made a
bad and unfortunate impression.
II we had not sent the battleships
to Cuba, in my opinion, great many
people would have been killed, and.
undoubtedly, among them would be
a great many Americans as well as
other foreign citizens,
From Sept. 5th on there has not
existed in Cuba a government cap
able Of protecting property and life.
Colonel Batista is reliable and shows
strong hand to put stop to the
situation OF unrestricted class agita-
tion which has existed In Cuba for
weeks. However, he has only made
a beginning, and 1t is not possible
for him to try to do more now, as
he is not supported by the extreme
and radical element in the Grau San
Martin government in his endeavors.
It Is impossible for me to impress
on you too strongly and clearly the
fact that If u. 8. warships were not
sent to Cuban cities during the past
months the lives Of American citi-
zens would have been sacrificed.

Cuban Communist Party Is
Inspiring Example tow Workers

The meeting to be held Sunday
evening at the New Star Casino for
the returning Anti-Imperialist League
delegation from Cuba is important
to every Party member not only as a
means Of expressing solidarity with
the struggle of the Cuban workers
against Yankee imperialism, but as
an occasion to rally the support Of
the American working class against
the arrest Of two American members
of this delegation by the Cuban gov
ernment in Havana.
1t is absolutely necessary for every
Party member to learn from the ex-
periences Of our brother Party in
Cuba now in the midst of a tre-
mendous struggle. While the Cuban
Party is engaged in great economic
and political struggles, the Commun-
ist Party Of Cuba offers an inspiring
example Of the correct Bolsheyik
policy Of combining leadership in
economic and political struggles with
mass recruiting into the ranks Of the
Party and revolutionary organiza-

eminent, they are beginning to feel
that the army is master, and that
they are less able to resist this armed
force, against its efforts to dominate
Cuba.
There is solution for the situa-
ton, if Colonel Batista is ready to
act. Decidedly he is opposed to Com
munisrn, and were he determined TO
maintain order, he would receive the
support of the business and banking
groups with view to replacing the
present regime with government in
which they can have more confidence.
The A. 3. c. friends, believe,
remain still, as they always have
been, the spokesmen of the one force
in Cuba which can save the country
for the Cuban people.
Menocal and Mendieta, and such
other old political heads, like Gomez,
no longer have prestige. The youth
ful elements, the more progressive
ones, are seeking new leaders.
Should all the groups adopt the
solution I outlined there Is bare
opportunity to save the situation.
Fear and Apprehension
Not even in the blacklist period OF
Machados government did more fear,
lack Of courage and apprehensive-
ness exist than there does at the
present time. Safety Of person and
Of life does not exist. The life OF
no one is secure as the atrocities
after the National Hot fighting
showed, which is an indication of the
current views.
In America the situation is not
fully appreciated. American news
paper men have handled the Situa-
ton in hight manner. They have
treated what is a tragedy as a farce
to give amusement to their readers.
In this situation and for these
reasons no matter how anIously J
would Ike to return to Washington.
as much as I can appreciate the
strength Of your arguments, I be-
lieve that should stay here in
Havana and do all I can.
Forces for Intervention
We have the powerful influence Of
American business men in Cuba, as
well as the powerful force Of the
business and banking groups, Span
ish and Cuban, and we have the
foreign governments who have In
terests here pressing for intervention
Leaders Of powerful political groups
declare to me repeatedly that the
situation would be solved through in
tervention. There are besides, the
starving Cubans Of the raddle and
lower classes who make Intervention
the only solution.
Besides all this, there are the tenn
perate liberal and progressive Cuban
leaders, many Of whom are known
to you, advising me in all earnestness
that Intervention cannot be avoided.
Aside from aiding all can, at
the present time, is to repeat that
intervention will not come and II
they want to rescue their country
it is up to them.
There is the impression that my
stimulus is acting as tonic and
major operation is the only solu-
ton.

in need Of position (for example

rate agitator, DR.. Guiteras, because
they harbored the hope Of controlling
central positions to be able, when
the time came for the overthrow OF
the present government, to put into
power an extreme left group.
In my description of the situation
