BERLIN, March 80 (by maiD OF

the workers was SO great that the

the price for one copy was 5 pfennigs,
many workers gave 20 and even so

Spring 1888 resembles the January
days Of the year 1919. Then the Spar
tacus we're hunted, prosecuted, beat
en- and murdered. The commander of
the White Guards was called Gustav
Noske. The officers in his army were
former Imperial officers, students,
little sons of the bourgeoisie. The
dead bodies lay around in the streets,
and the blood smoked up to the
skies. The massacre reached its
climax with the murder of Karl
Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg.
Spring 1888. The German bour-
geoisie, which saw with fear and
trembling the growth of anti-Fascist
strength, sent for a new butcher of
the masses. This time his name is
Hitler. His officers are the same ones
as before. Again death is being cried
against the representatives of Social

screaming for persecution Of the

EE5IEIRRIOT TO ACT

Will State Fren C h
Terms to Roosevelt

PARIS, April 9-Edouard Herriot
is to go to Washington to confer, as
the representative of the French
government, with Roosevelt in the
series of conferences being held prior
to the converting of thc arms and
world economic conferences.
1t is considered significant that
Herriot should be chosen because the
government he headed was defeated
last winter when he insisted that
France do not default on its Deem
Der 18th debt installment to the
United States.
VIII OUTRAGE Macdonald
Herriot is to leave on April 18th
and expects to arrive for a conference
in Washington before the arrival of
j. Ramsay Macdonald, British prime
minister. Herriot is not in favor of
the proposed for-power pact agrees
upon by Mussolini and Macdonald
and insists that European frontiers
cannot be changed by such a combi-
nation except through the machinery
Of the League of Nations. France
hopes that it can mobilize it's puppet
states in the League assembly to de-
feat such proposals.
1t is also anticipated that erriot
will ask Roosevelt some embarrassing
questions about the discussion be-
tween Norman H. Davis and Hitler
over the Polish corridor, which is re-
garded as a plot both against Poland
and France, whose imperialist ruling
class has maintained the Pilsudski
government in power for years.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-Invita-

ton through Secretary Of State Hull
have been sent to eleven nations in
viting representatives to come to
Washington for discussions prelim-

The latest invitations were sent to
Canada and Mexico. The Canadian
invitation will most probably be
followed by one to Australia, max
ing twelve nations invited in all.

disintegrating tendencies in the Brit

The other nations invited are Brit
ain, France, Italy, Germany, Japan,
China, Argentina, Chile and Brazil

TO the bill prohibiting Soviet i'm

organ of the Communist Party of the
Soviet Union, writes: According to

Pravda. quoting extracts from the
correspondence Of the British am
baSsador to the Soviet Union, Sir
Esmond Ovey to the British foreign
secretary, Sir John Simon, showed
that Ovey tried to apply toward the
U.S.S.R. the same domineering meas
ures which imperiaIist states use in
dealing with colonial countries.
Sir John Simon, in the course of
his speech, found it necessary to
take under his defense the counter
revolutionary wreckers of agricuI-
tural enterprises recently sentenced
by the state political department.
He compared the arrested English
engineers to these counter -revolu-

SimOns' InSOIent Posture.
In spite Of opinions to the con-
trary by various members of the
British house Of commons, Sir John
SimonS starts from the insolent and
ridiculous premise that British sub
jects are generally incapable of com
Knitting crime. In scoring such an
assumption Pravda reminds the
British bouTgeOisie of Bruce Lock
hart, Sidney Kelley and Churchill,
whose memories boastfully speak of
the series of crimes committed by
these British officials against the
toilers Of the U. S. S. r.
The British government, declares
Pravda, shall never succeed in having
a free hand in the U. S. S. r., as it
has in countries unfortunate enough
to be under its bestial domination.
British ministers will find them
selves in a very ridiculous position
after the facts Of the judicial investi-
cation have been made public. 1t Is
such ridiCule as they call upon them
selves that kills.
Soviet newspapers devoted most of
their front page space today to the
approaching trial of the six British
engtneer-wreckers. Tzvestia states.
"The threats Of the British i'm
perialists inevitably raise the uues-
ton, Why are they making such a
fuss? Perahaps taey know more about
this affair than British public op-
1nion is aware of. Perhaps too, they
are afraid the trial may reveal a
certain side Of 1t which hitherto has
not been known" Metropolitan-Vi-
Ckers, the firm employing the six
engineers is an affiliate of Vickers-
Armstrong, powerful British NUM-
lions trust and leader in the inter
national arms cartel which will pro-
fit most if the European govern
ments are successful in forcing war
on the Soviet Union.
The indictment covers not only
"Wrecking activities" but Espionage"
as well, it was learned today. The
feeling in Moscow is that the trial
will disclose considerably more SIMS
ter anti-Soviet activities than was
at first suspected and that it may
involve high officials of the imper-
ialist powers.

Letters from Germany Tell OF the
Savage Repression by the Nazis

OF political, commercial, scientific and
other organizations are now stand
ing by and dare not open their
mouths.
/ do not think it was very smart
of the Nazis to appropriate the Com
munistS and use the offices and
buildings of the Communist Party
for their own work. This must excite
the Communists quite unnecessarily.
You know that I am not sympa-
thizing at all with the Communists,
but they have never been worse than
the NaziS, and it is surprising enough
that the material which the Nazis
pretend to have found in the Karl
Liebknecht House is today, after 20
days have passed, as yet unpublished.
They promised to show us the "ter-
rible things" that the Communists
planned, but the material is hidden
by the NaziS, God knows why.
NaziS who have murdered Commu-
niSts or Socialists are acquitted, those
in prison have been freed, many of
them given high government jobs.
The speeches Of Hitler, Goering, Goe-
bells, ETC., are broadcast all day. Be-
sides this, there are war scenes
broadcast with the best possible i'm
itation Of machine guns and heavy
artillery, etc. Instead of real music,
only military marches.
Tomorrow the opening of the
Reichstag will take place in Potsdam,
what they call, the sacred soil of
Germany" If you had read the
safety measures they are taking, you
would see how uneasy the National
Socialists must feel. No one is al
lowed to throw flowers; the people
Of Potsdam are even forbidden to
open their windows; no packages or
suitcases may be taken into Petsdam
tomorrow. Old cellars and vaults
which are no longer in use have been
walled up; airplanes are not allowed
to fly over the city, etc. .......
IF Hitler does not keep all his prom
ises, the biggest part Of the mob will
wake up some day and will TURF

AUTOMOBILE PRODUCTION


The Soviet Union plans to turn
out $4,000 automobiles this year
Annual production will be stepped UP
until in 1887, the last year Of the
Second Five-Year Plan period, it is
expected to reach 100000. That year
all cars in the country will have an
aggregate horsepower, equal to 100
Dnieper power plants. The bulk of
them viii be trucks.
The socially productive character
Of the automobile in the U. S, 8. R..
which is apparent in every phase of
activity, is evidenced by the proper
ton OF trucks to passenger cars. OF
the $4,000 autos in the country at the
beginning of this year, three Of every
eight were trucks, a higher percentage
than anywhere else. In the U. S, one
OF every eight autos is a truck. The
total freight turnover for 1897 is
planned at 800O0OO0,OOO metric tons
cone metric ton equals 2,205 Ibs). of
which autos are to transport 70 per
cent. The Soviet auto industry is
only three years old, and during that
period production has tripled.
NEW TYPES OF CARS
An example of the progress Of So
Wet technique in a new industry is
the designing of four new types of
autos by the Scientific Auto Tractor
Institute at Likhobory, a suburb of
Moscow. Two are passenger cars.
with air-cooled motors, one a one
half ton truck, and the fourth a
three axle light truck.
The first three are lighter than the
Ford and will cost less in mass
production. They will require less
than half the amount of gas and
rubber than the Ford, will not need
heated garages, and will be especially
adapted to Soviet conditions. The
three-axle truck has been accepted
for mass production by the GOrky
formerly Mimi NOvgorod) plant
It's tonnage and mobility are greater
than those of the Ford truck, and it
Is assembled from the same parts as
the Gorky truck.
These experimental cars have
shown up well on rough roads. A

Arms Reduction Vancouver
Although Wall Street knows it can
never collect the 1nter-allied war
debts, it refuses to cancel all these
debs, and uses them to try to weaken
the war machine of its imperialist
rivals through arms reduction pro-
posals. The British press is aware OF
this and Macdonald is expected to
raise the question Of debt stay when
he arrives in Washington. The Lon-
don Observer today says:
ut is hoped, almost believed, that
President Roosevelt had in mind
if he did not specify 1t, the question
Of June moratorium. 1t Is taken
as an axiom that the World EcAls
nOmic Conference cannot meet u

to that which was made at TIE

udice, in suspense for the duration

There is also the central question
of the date and place the conference
will be held, with the United States
striving to defeat the British attempt
to dominate the conference so that
Wall Street can dominate it.
Invitations to the nations for pre-
lininary discussions are a part &C

going into the conference.
Against the Soviet Union
In the midst of all the imperiains
conflicts and. as q consequence Of
their sharpening, there runs through
all the preparations the most con-
certed drive yet made for war and
Intervention against the Soviet Union,
So plainly does this fact stand out
that all the capitalist press comments
upon the fact that Roosevelt, in his
invitation to other powers, deliberately
excluded the Soviet Union. n
1t is clear that the Roosevelt all
ministration, in trying to take tile
lead in world reaction, Is proceediQk
along the line of trying to find some
temporary patchwork system that
will enable the imperialist powers to
