CHICAGO, ILL.,, June l3.-The So
cialist leaders of Chicago have smash
ed the United Front Anti-Fascist
Committee. The Jewish Anti-Fascist
Committee of Thirty-Ffve in charge
of the May 10th anti-fascist demon
suation has refused to participate in
any anti-fascist action, and when
confronted with proposals for action
advanced by representatives of Icor,
the International Workers Order and
Poale Zion, the Secretary of the
Jewish Socialist Federation moved to
iquidate the Committee.
All delegates voting against liquid
ion formed a Jewish Workers Anti
Fascist Committee. calling on all
workers organizations to join in the
demonstration and tag day on June

A large number OF open-air meet

answer is that the Nazi victory is
BY no means complete. The Ger
man revolutionary working class
has suffered severe blow, it would
be folly to ders it, but the victory
of the fascists is by no means what
il appears to be on the surface.
The big bloated organizations of
the Social-Democracy, the Social
Democratic Party, the A.D.G.B. (the
reformist trade unions), the so-called

all the rest of them have been swept

The Socialist Organizations Sitting
Mass Actions.
They held the masses of the So
cial-Democratic workers back from
the decisive struggle, they did their
best to stifle the will of these masses
to join with their Communist fellow
workers in a united front against
fascism, and they smashed every be-
ginning that was made to create this
front.
They deliberately widened the gap
in the ranks of the working class and
watched the enemy advance through
it. They rendered their last great
service to German capitalism and
they have disappeared.
Behind them they have left hun
dreds of thousands of those who be-
heved in them too long, but whose
eyes have now been opened effective
ly to their real character.
Here are the second line troops of
the proletarian revolution. 1t will not
be long before they sweep into the
first line together with the advance
guard of the German working class

The Illegal Communist Party
The terrific pressure of the legal
and illegal terror against the German
working class has driven the Commu-
mist Party underground.
The terror has closed down the le-
gal headquarters Of the Party thru

hcations, arrested hundreds of its

meetings and prohibits any legal ex-
preston of its existence, but it has
not smashed the Party and cannot
prevent it working.
The ''Rote Fahne" appears and is
distributed at the factories in thou
sands of copies
Illegal leaflets are produced and
distributed in the districts. Heroic
protest demonstrations have been or
ganized and carried out. The Com
nunist Party Is the fighting organiza-
ton of the working class.
1t stands by the working class. it
places itself at the head of the mass
eS in the teeth of the worst mass
terror ever experienced in a Western
European country.
1t is alive and working, and it will
remain alive and working and fight
until German fascism is smashed.
And here is the aim of the under
ground terror which began on the &C
cession Of Hitler to power and has
continued ferociously ever since.
The power of the State, the po-
lice, the law courts, the prisons and
the concentration camps are not
sufficient to destroy the Commu-
mist Party, not sufficient to break
the spearhead of the German work
ing class.
The secret terror is intended tc
complete the work begun by the legal
repressive apparatus of the German
bourgeoisie.
The Unshakable Basis Of the
Communist Party
The basis of the Communist Party
is that magnificent phalanx of Ger
man workers who have developed into
such proletarian revolutionaries, such
Communists during the last IA years
of class struggle in Germany, that
nothing can shake them, nothing can
make them cease to be Communists
No horror can deter them from
their clear course. The fascist rulers
of Germany know that nothing they
can do can intimidate these revolu-
tionary forces. that no sop can wiz
more than laugh from them, that
no demagogy can cloud their under
standing of the class position, that nc
circuses can confuse them.

One alternative remainS-the phys
lcal determination of these relentless
enemies of fascism, their utter ex-
tinction before the first fireworks
of the fascist seizure Of power peter
out and leave nothing but smoke and
disappointment behind, nothing but
intensified misery, increased unem-
ployment, heightened dissatisfaction
and anger.
These men and women, the flower
of the German working class, must
not be alive to guide the coming dis
satisfaction of the huge masses of the
German workers and peasants into
effective and revolutionary channels
They must not be there to lead
the struggle for the proletarian reyo-
luton when the disappointed mil
lions realize that they have been
fooled.
And above all, they must not be
permitted to organize that struggle
now in the factories, at the Labor
Exchanges, in the working class dis
tricts.
What does it matter if a few
hundred Marxists come TO harm"
declared Frick.
Heads will roll" declared Hitler
again and again.
LET there be no mistake, we shall
make good use of the public hang
man." declared Strasser
What is now proceeding under
ground, and under cover of dark
ness in the working class quarters
of Berlin, Breslau, Hamburg, Leipzig,
Halle and the other big German
working-cla towns, is the organized
and mass attempt Of the German
Fascists to exterminate the best ele-
ments in the German working class
with revolver and knife, and, above
ALL with the plfscAe steel club.
These efforts Will not succeed, but
they are dealing heavy blows. 1t will
be the aim of these articles to expose
this terror, to give facts and concrete
details of scores of cases which have
become known.
They will let the testimony Of
workers who have been In the Gel
lars of the General Pape Strassc,
the Hedep,apn Syasse, the Ulap
and the other hell holes Of German
Fascism speak.
And they viii give names OF
those workers ufo can no longer
be tortured. whc-e musiIated bodies
have been buried hastily or flung
into the canals by the murdcrcrs.
Many of the best and most devoted
leaders OF the German working-class
are in the hands Of men whose
avowed aim is murder.
The lives of Thaelmann, Torgler,
Kaspar, to mention but three Of tens
of thousands, are in the hands Of
these men.
The American working-class must
stand by its German comrades. 1t
must raise its voice with al possible
energy to demand their release, to
demand the end Of the secret terror,
the end OF the nightly murder e1pe-
ditions Of Hitlcrs bands at Eitlers
orders.
International proletarian solidarity
has rescued many workers from the
hands of the hangmen. 1t must res

Does it make this demand so that
