Fight Imperialist War.
Comrades: Imperialist War is on!
In China, japanese Imperialism is
carrying on its bloody war against
the Chinese masses. For months
Japanese troops have been invading
China, bringing devastation and ruin
to millions of Chinese workers and
peasants. In this war Japanese In
perialism is receiving the support of
American, British and other Imperi-
alists, despite the rivalries existing
between these states.
In South America, Bolivia and
Paraguay are engaged in war which
has already cost the lives OF thousands
of workers and peasants This war
is threatening to engulf the whole
South American continent, as eX-
amplified by the war threats and pre-
parations between Colombia and
Peru, Argentine, Brazil, Ecuador and
others. This war was instigated by
American and British Imperialism
and was readily resorted to by the
bourgeois landlord governments Of
Bolivia and Paraguay-aS way out
of the crisis.
I'm this war Imperialism is . $50
out to crush the militant struggle Of
the colonial masses for complete in
dependence. A ruthless reign of ter
ror is launched against the working
class organizations. Their leaders
and active members are being jailed
! and prosecuted, in the attempt to
crush the growing Anti-Imperialist
movement.
Menaces Soviet Union.
Each day brings us closer to a new
Imperialist world war, and to the
danger of an attack against the Sow
let Union:
To-day the American workers find
themselves in the severest crisis in
history In the richest country in
the world millions of workers are
unemployed, starving to death. Those
workers still in the shops and factor
les have their wages cut constantly
hours heightened, and generally their
standard Of living lowered. The work
ers are carrying on militant struggles
against the offensive of the bosses
against the intensified terror and per-
secution growing out Of these strug-
giles. Imperialism knows only one
way out of the crisis-War! Wal
which will profit the. bosses at the
expense of the masses.
I'VE must carry on an intensive
campaign against this war-noW! We
must not wait until war is declared
Workers in shops, factories, neigh
borhoods, must be aroused to the
danger of a new world slaughter
Every effort must be made TO reach
workers in munition factories, in
transportation, to make them aware
OF the new blood bath being prepared
by the ImperialiSts. simultaneously
with the fight against wage-cuts
speed up, unemployment; with the
organization of trade unions, we must
form anti-war committees to spread
and popularize the Anti-war cam
paign, to stop the manufacture ano
shipment of munitions and other wal
materials.
