BY ROBERT HAMILTON

On January 30, 1888, Adolf Hitler,
head of the Nazi Party, was ap-
pointed Chancellor Of the Reich BY
President Won Hindenburg General
Won Schleicher had resigned as
Chancellor two days before, ending a
period of nine months during which
cabinets having the support only of
the Junkers and big business had
tried in vain to consolidate capitalist
rule in Germany.
Hindenburg called Hitler to the
CHARACTERISTIC with the advice and
consent" of Herr Won Papen (who
had directed Imperial Gerrnanys spy
system m the United States during
the World War; and Of Major Oscar
Won Hindenburg, the Presidents son
and Won Papen's intimate crony. This
disposes of the Nazis' legend that
Hitler's assumption of power was due
to second revolution" to a Ere
awakening of Germany"
In actuality, Hitler and his party
were called into the cabinet by the
steel and coal industrialists and the
wealthy landowners. Thyssen, the
steel king, Hugenberg, the German
Hearst, and the Junkers felt that they
had to have more popular support for
their government than Won Papen or
Won Schleicher alone could obtain, and
they we're therefore allotted three
Cabinet posts to the Hugenberg Ma
tionalists' nine.
The Nazi Party wanted sole power
in Germany; 1t felt the restraint i'm

during the seven months that Hitler
has been in power; as known victims
were killed or tortured to death in the
single month of April in Berlin alone.
Over 100000 Jews have been rend-
cred outcasts by the Nazi regime, with
SO ,OC0 of them refugees in neighboring
countries. There were 43 reliably iden-
titled bodies of Jews slain and mutt
lated by TIE Nazi bands. The Brown
Book" alone records 300 verified cases
of torture of Jews at the hands of
Nazi storm troopers.
i Workers Organizations Destroyed
Every single organization of the
German working class has been des-
troyed by the Nazis. Beginning with
theii. most feared enemies-the Com
munists-and later reaching out for
the Socialists and the Christian or
CARNATIONS, the Nazis have seized,
converted or destroyed thousands Of
union headquarters, co-operatives,
bookstores, newspapers, pr MT n G
plants. labor sports unions. cultural
organizations and clubs throughout
the country.
This is the New Era that Hitler
promised And it is only one aspect OF
his new era that we have discussed
here-the arrests, tortures. and muir
ders that characterize Hitler Germany.
For all of this the Reichstag fire was
the fitting prelude. The flames tower
ing above the huge building were a
giant torch, livid signal for St.
Bartholomew Massacre that far out
did and still outdoes the most sinister
pages in the history of religious perse-
cutlon. On the foundation of the
Reichstag fire, Nazi terror in Germany
has been built--and the overwhelm-
ing proof of their guilt in executing
this monstrous frame-up must arouse
the workers of the whole world to aid
in the job of totally smashing this
foul thing German Fascism.
(Tomorrow-Who, burned the Ger
man Reichstag?)

huge bronze dome-warrants were dis
tributed for arrest of 1900 leading
Communists, party leaders and intel
lectual sympathizers. These 500 war
rants, all filled out by hand in pen
and ink, and most of them bearing
photographs of the men wanted. were
N the hands of the local detective
bureaus within three hours Of the dis
covery Of the fire.
A former member of the Berlir
police force states In the Brown
Book that it was physically impos-
sible to have filled out all these war
rants in that short time. The only in
ference left is that they were all pre-
pared IN advance and kept ready for
the giant provocation--the Reichstap
fire-that the Nazi leaders knew be-
forehand was going to break out
on the night of February 9th.
That same night Hindenburg signed
the barbarous Emergency Decree fol
the Protection Of the People and the
State" which suspended articles ia
lis, III, 118, 1913, 1874 and 1873 of the
German Constitution. The suspension
of these articles abolished at one
stroke all civil liberties: freedom OF
speech and of the press, personal
freedom, freedom of assembly, the
privacy Of telephone and telegraph
communication, and the like. Ger
many was turned into a giant prison
cage, with the population exposed to
the tender mercies of any police
measures.
Hitler Gives Frame Up Away

fire less than twenty minutes after
the first alarm had been turned in

Reichstag Nazi arson plot. The
editorial declares:
THE Nazi ruling circles fear the
effect of the Leipzig trial, which
would never take place if it de-
pended on their will alone. What
can the Stage-managers of the Leip-
zig trial offer as against the numer-
Gus dispositions of eyewitness as
well as from the most prominent
political leaders of Germany, even
from the ti-proletarian camp, all
Of whom presented indisputable evid-
ence of the innocence of Torgler and
the other comrades?
The Nazi Answer: Forgeries
"The Nazi can answer with moth
ing but false documents and obvi-
Gus forgerieS in the best police style.
"The Leipzig trial has double
object from the Nazi viewpoint: it
must not only accuse the defendants
and justify the judges in calumniat-
ing the proletarian revolution, but
must also whitewaSh the counter
revolution. The bourgeoisie under
stands full well that the fascist ter
ror is unable to destroy the Commu-
mist Party of Germany, nor is it
able to subjugate the proletarian
masses and bring them under Nazi
influence.
The German proletariat has by
no means as yet said it's last word.
Fascist justice intends to make use
OF the trial mostly to prove that
the Communist Party, the vanguard
OF the German proletariat, is a party
of terrorists and incendiaries. Fas-
clst justice deems it its task to shift
the responsibility of the Reichstag
arson from the heads of it's own
Nazi leaders to the heads of the
Communists.
The Nazi understand well that
their effort to prove that Commu-
nlSts use arson as method of DO
lit1cal struggle is quite hopeless, but
they cannot renounce this thesis at
this late date, for otherwise they
must expose themselves"
Continuing, the 'Pravda' editorial
says that already last November the
Central Committee of the Conlmu-
mist Party of Germany adopted a
resolution reminding all its members
that all anarchist and terrorist eff
forts serve only to distract the masses
Of the workers from genuine strug-
gle and help provocateurs in their
dirty activity.
The German Communist PARTY
has grown up as a party of revo-
lutlonary mass struggle of the pro-
letariat. Such it has been and such
1t remains-although it is now forced
to lead an underground existence.
The attempts to attribute methods
OF individual terror to the Com
munist movement will fool few.
Real Culprits Shown
only one of the real culprits in
volved in the Reichstag arson plot
stands in the dock today. and he
is the fascist hireling, Won der Lubbe.
HIS connection with the National
Socialist (NazD Party has been am
ply proven. The London public trial
conducted by the international iurists
showed indisputably who are the real
hcendiaries and who their victims"
Concluding, "Pravda" declares:
Leipzig will take its place in the
history of the class struggle in Ger
many as model comedy of fascist
justice and law of the bourgeois
exploiters.
Defeat inevitably awaits a regime
requiring such means of protection. /"

At the present time the Soviet
bonds are considered among the
safest in the world, since they are
payable in any desired currency,
American dollars for example, on a
gold basis. AS the dollar f1uctuates,
the Soviet Union guarantees to main

The Soviet Union will buy back any
number of the bonds one year after

They are backed up by the full
