Communist Leaguel"
A young communist spoke to the
workers, exposing Hitler's role as the
German capitalists hangman and
calling upon the workers to organize
mass resistance to the fascist die
tatorship.
The Socialist Party called a mem
bership meeting in Rendorf, suburb
of Hamburg. The Communist local
organization, learning Of this, at once
appointed three comrades to attend
the meeting and submit an offer fol
united front action. Although the
Socialist chairman and the Socialist
officials protested against our COM
rades taking the floor, the rank and
file members demanded that our COM
rades be heard. The offer of united
front action was then accepted.
Defense Corps
In the Ruhr region, where the Nazis
had repeatedly raided workers homes
and where the police had said that
they were unable to protect the work
ers' lives and property against the
Nazi gangsters, the workers decided
to form a mass defense corps.
Communist, Socialist and Christian
workers joined at once, members OF
the Catholic Center Party being es-
pecially eager to join. They helped
to provide rooms for workers who
were being looked for by the police
Even the local priest offered to hide
the prosecuted workers!

ownership of the railway.
1.-The Soviet government has always
been prepared to sell the Chinese
Eastern Railway to China, but the
latter was unable to buy it. The So
Wet government, preserving its rights

it crosses foreign territory, found II
fair to grant the masters of this ter

Sale Removes Source of Friction
Nevertheless, the Chinese Eastern
Railway has become source Of fr1c-
ton between the Soviet Union, China
and Manchuria. Everyone remein-
be25 the conflict OH the Chinese
Eastern Railway which arose in 1920
through no fault of the Soviet Union.
With a view to removal Of the
source of conflicts, the Soviet govern
ment conducted negotiations in 1890
with representative of the Nanling-
Mukden government regarding the
sale Of the Chinese Eastern Railway.
These negotiations broke down owing
to the Manchurian events in the au-
tumr CT 1881
"The question OF the sale of. the
otins-e-Easssfn Railway has now
again maSured. Out Of these consid-
erations we made a proposal for the
sale OF the Chinese Eastern Railway.
Our proposal Lityinov concluded, 'is
another demonstration of the Soviet
Unions peacefulness, and only those
will object to it who are interested in
the aggravation Of Soviet-Japanese
and Soviet-Manchurian relationx.

sailors. Most of the cuts are being
made mainly in the land services of
the Navy, not in the sea forces, which
are being increased. SS@
Secretary of the Navy Swanson is
demanding that special fund of
$240 600, 900 be set aside to permit the
Navy to build up to the maximum
limits provided by the London Naval
Treaty. President Roosevelt, who was
misunderstanding of the Navy dur
ing Wilson's administration, is re-
ported as being in favor of this plan.
Navy officers admit that the present
plan will increase the efficiency of the
Navy. The expenditures for naval
fighting equipment are greater than
ever. The present claims of redUc-
tions are made to conceal this fact.

MOSCOW, May 12.-The Moscow
press publishes Tass interview with
Foreign Commissar Maxim Litvinov
regarding his recent conversation
with japanese Ambassador Ota on the
question of possible sale of the Chi
nese Eastern Railway.
Litvinov declared that during his
conversation with Ota, they discussed
the grave situation created on the
Chinese Eastern Railway whic h
threatens to complicate the relations
between the Soviet Union and Man
churia. During the conversation Lit
vlnov inentioned the question Of the
sale OF the Chinese Eastern Railway
to the Manchurian authorities as one
Of the most radical methods OF settl-
ing the conflict.
Markings Claims Void
Lltvinov stated that the Marking
government disputed the right of sale
OF the Chinese Eastern Railway to
any one but the Marking government.
Litvinov also said: THE arguments
raised b. the Marking government
correspond neither to the formal I'M
dertaking OF the Soviet government
nor to the actual state of affairs.
THE agreements with China do not
restrict the rights of the Soviet Union
to sell the railway to anyone espe-
cially to the de facto power existing
in Msnchuria and carrying out the
undertakings binding the Chinese
party to the Picking Mukden agree

This tariff truce is only sham

had already signed exclusive trade
agreements securing trade privilege.
in many parts of the world.
While Germany signed the truce
agreement in London, the Berlin gov
eminent announced that in June only
80 per cent of the scheduled import
licenses would be granted. This
means cutting German imports in
half, a much more violent measure Of
protectionism than the highest tariff
conceivable. The import cut is a d.
rect consequence of the grave eco
nomic crisis in Hitler Germany, with
the trade balance unfavorable as a
result Of international boycotts and
the general world economic crisis.
WASHINGTON, Mar. 12.-Presi-

at the same time that Hitler In
Geneva was insisting on the right to
increase its arms enormously.
They added the pious wish chat

and far-reaching solutions are nee

Drive to Peiping Meets
With Stiff

SHANGHAI, May 12-The Japas

the Chinese lines south of Nantien-
men, on the Jehol-Peiping highway,
while other Japanese brigades ads
Yanced westward from the coast to
cut off the retreat of the Chinese
forces defending Peiping on the
north.
The japanese have seven brigadea
of about 10000 men each, with full
war equipment, operating below the
Great Wall, and the Japanese frontal
attack had already reached a point
only fifty miles north of Peiping
The Chinese, entrenched at Hsink-
ailing, are reported to have repulsed
three Japanese infantry assaults, all
though 20 armored cars aided the
Japanese attack.
japanese planes again bombed the
Chinese hospital at Chihsien, forty
miles north of Tientsin, killing ten
and wounding twenty. A second Ja-
panese plane flew over Peiping, Drop
ping leaflets warning the population
that Peiping would be taken by force
unless all resistance to the japanese
ceased.
japanese Plan Buffer State
The Japanese are already grooming
General Han Fu-Chu, Governor Of
Shantung, as the head of their pro-
posed North China puppet state, with
the possible active support of Yen
Hsi-Shan and Feng- Yu- Hsiang, who
led the 1880 uprising against the DOM
nation of Chang Kai-Shek.
The Japanese plan envisages the
rapid establishment of the puppet
state to enable the Japanese armies
to retire quickly to Jehol and Man
churia, in order to avoid conflicts with
British. French and American inter-
ests concentrated in the Peiping-
Tientsin area.

Several demonstrations of the
Y.CL. took place during Easter Week
in Berlin, concentrating in front of
the big Tietz, Wertheim and Kauf-

Hundreds Of leaflets were distributed
in these stores.
The leaflets called upon the young
workers to take revolutionary action
in firm anti-fascist united front
against the fascist dictatorship. They
also exposed the infamous frame-up
of the Hitler government in arresting
the three Bulgarian revolutionary
workers.

After the leaflets had been dis
tributed, the International" played

heard in various parts of the store.

sympathy among the masses. AL

the spot, no one was arrested.
