TO DEMONSTRATE
BEFORE EMBASSY
March II Meet to In
volve Workers

On Wednesday, March 8th a
conference was held of dele
gates from student bodies, call
ed by the students of the Rand
School for uniting the workers
students in a demonstration
against fascism in Germany.
The Workers School, together
with other school bodies was invited
to participate in this conference. Re-
cogniSing that this was an express
sion Of the willingness of the rank
and file, against the wishes and de-
sires Of the leaders of the Socialist
Party, to unite with other student
bodies. the Workers School decided
to send delegates and to help in de-
veloping the most energetic struggle
against fascism in Germany and in
solidarity with the German prole-
tariat.
For Wide Representation
At the conference there were rep
resentatives from the student body
of the Rand School, the Workers
School, the National Students League,
the Young Peoples Socialist League,
the Brookwood faculty, the renegade
Trotsky group and two observers"
from the LoYestone school. The pro-
posal Of the Rand School student
body was to develop united action in
a demonstration against German fas-
cism before the Hitherto headquarters
in New York City.
The delegates from the Workers
School in entering this united front
pointed out: The basis of fascism
in Germany and the developments
OF fascism in the United States, ex-
planning the reasons for the adop-
ton Of more open forms OF capitalist
dictatorship to stave off the revolu-
tionary upsurge of the masses. They
clearly pointed out that the present
bloody war of Hitler against the
working class movement, and par
ticularly against the German Com
munist Party was aimed at crush
ing the revolutionary struggles of the
masses.
Exposed establishments
They emphasized that the present
situation necessitated the widest
mobilization of the young workers
and students in New York in united
actions against German fascism, and
in solidarity with the German pro-
letariat. But at the same time they
stressed the necessity of conducting
a struggle against all those who
hamper the development of unity,
captivating and supporting the
forces of reaction. In this eonnec-
ton the delegates emphasized the
role of the social democratic leaders
in Germany who by their whole list
OF betrayaIs of the German masses
made possible the entertainment of
Fascism in Germany, prevented the
development of the united front and
the struggle for the revolutionary
overthrow of capitalism.
The proposals of the Workers
School delegates we're accepted to be
finally formulated by the committee
and presented to the next conference.
l. That the conference shall not
be limited to students but shall in
Yolve working class youth organiza-
tions, reaching out to the factories,
the unemployed youth and the stu
dents on the campus of the colleges.
2. That another wider conference
shall be called for March 18th to
which working class youth organiza-
tons shall be invited.
8. That the demonstration shall be

shall connect up the struggles OF the
German masses against fasciSm with
our struggles in the United States
against the capitalist offensive, as
the best expression Of solidarity with
the German workers.
4. That a leaf1et of the united
front conference shall be widely dis
trlbuted to young workers and stu
dents, but at the same time each or
