About 1000 of them, armed with

The Berlin District of the German

admit any more members to any Of

not to the "Kampfring" "a fighting

The reason given is that "entire or.

''Kampfring" consisted mainly o.

attempts to purge other units Of

SMASH RIVAL

Hull Refuses to Dis
cuss Debts at
London

LONDON, June 9.-The American
delegation to the World Economic
Conference arrived here yesterday.
The first questions asked Secretary of
State Hull on his arrival were con-
corning the United States position
on the debt payment due from En-
gland on June 15 Hull's reply was:
"The war debts have no place on the
agenda of the Economic Conference
we have come to attend. Any nego-
tiations regarding debts will continue
to be handled directly by government
officials in Washington and London.
The question of next weeks install
ment is entirely a matter for them"
Sources close to Secretary Hull said
that at lunch today Ramsay MacDon-
aid, the English Prime Minister, had
preached the subject of the war debts
payments, but that Hull had declined
to discuss the matter as he was not
authorized to do so.
One of the main activities of the
U. S. delegation will be an aggressive
attack on the tariff barriers which
block American exports. As Hull put
1T am opposed to all excuses in
distractions to trade and finance be-
tween nations"
The British cabinet, which is meet
ing today, has still not made up its
mind on the subject of payment or
default.
Germany Headed for Economic Ruin
BERLIN, June 9.-The German
transfer moratorium on debts goes
into effect on July 1. 1t applies to
all federal, state, municipal, commu-
nal, industrial and agricultural bonds.
Defaulting on the service of public
and private debts will have a serious
effect on Germany's credit, and on
the chances of raising loans abroad
to finance the Hitler dictatorship.
The amount of indebtedness affect
ed by the moratorium is $4,824, 900, 900.
OF this foreign Indebtedness, about
two-fifths is held by the United
States Treasury and by private Am
erican investors.
The Reichsbank's holdings of gold
and eligible bills has shrunk from
3,078,000000 marks at the end of June
1880, to 2800O0,0oo at the end of last
May. Consequently there is not
available sufficient amount of gold
and bills of exchange to cover the
requirements of German foreign
trade, which are increasing with the
decline in German exports. Normally,
imports are paid for by exports, but
German exports have declined in
value from a monthly average of a.
100000 marks for the first four
months of 1882, to an average Of a.
100000 for this year.
That this move will be employed
by Germany as club at the London
Economic Conference was confirmed
by a remark uttered by DR.. Schacht,
Director of the Reichsbank, who said:
"I recommend that a foremost place
be given to this problem at the i'm
pending London conference in order
to secure the cooperation of all in
terested parties for its rapid solu-

His Action Is the Action of a
Real Leader.
On June 4, 1928, the prosecuting
attorney at the trial of the leaders
Of the Communist Party of Italy in
his speech for the state declared:
1T is GramSci that led with his
hand the Party in 1926, after hav-
ing defeated the opposition led by
engineer Bordiga at the Lyons
congress. 1t is Gramsci who is
the spirit of the entire movement,
it is he who showed the path that
the Party shall follow. The pOlit-
icaI past of Gramsci indicates that
he is the outstanding and most be-
loved leader of the masses. In re-
atty he predOminated during the
occupation of the factories by the
proletariat of Piedmonte. His ac-
ton is the action of real leader
of the Party"
Yes, it was Gramsci who showed
the feminist path to be followed by
the Italian proletariat if it is to be
emancipated from capitalism, The
enemy was well informed about his
position in the party and in the
ranks of the italian working class.
Gramsci the leader, the spirit Of the
Italian proletarian revolution, sick
of tuberculosis, was condemned to a
slow death by the sentence Of "a
years imposed on him.
Gramsci, the leader of the Com
munist Party Of Italy who laid the
foundation of the Party, whose Len
mist analysis Of the class forces in
Italy and whose strategy Of the
italian revolution, made in 1924, still
holds good today, must be saved for
the italian revolution, for the inter
national proletarian struggle against
capitalism.
Forward to a mighty protest which
will force italian fascisn to free
Gramsci.
Forward in the struggle for the
freedom OF the hundreds of thous-
ands of political prisoners in the
jails Of fascist Italy, Germany, Po-
land and the Balkans!
We must free them!
We must save them for the cause
Of the proletarian revolution!

PRAGUE, May SO.-The 18th ami

day. The counter-revolutionary united
front at the celebration included rep
resentatives of the Defense Ministry,

as well as Russian and Czech White
Generals. What is even more inter-
esting, Premier Malypetr and five
other Cabinet Ministers, including the
Social Democrats Bechyne and Derer,

But Goering is getting his futile
gestures mixed up. Only the other

copies of the works of Marx and
Lenin from the Nazi book-burning
orgy so that a few conservative
scholars might consult the volumes
in the ministries and state libraries.
In fifty years Hitler and Goering
may be mentioned briefly in histories

months and half in prison in the
Dutch colony Surinan1, South Amer

against him. De Kom, a native of
Surinam, who has written a book on
the terror regime in the Dutch COL

the Surinam colonial workers and the
Dutch government threw him into
jail as soon as he returned to Su-

Finnish Seamen Strike
Arousing Solidarity
Action

LONDON, June 9.-UnleSS the Fin
nish shipowners settle with the strik-
ing seamen, British transportation
workers will not handle cargo of Fin
nish ships, beginning Monday. The
Finnish Shipowners refuse to deal
with the strikers, because the strike
was forced by the rank and file un-
der Red Trade Opposition leadership
and the bosses state that "to accept
the demands for wage increases and
collective bargaining would be to in
crease the prestige of the Cemmu-
nists."
The strike of the Finnish seamen
has received the support of the Swe-
dish and Norwegian seamen since
May "a. However the refornnist
leaders of the Scandinavian refornlist
seamen'S unions have been sabotag-
ing the strike movement, while pre-
tending to support it.
Leaders Prevent Ship Action.
The Swedish leaders called off the
strike against their shipowners on
the date set for the Finnish strike
The Swedish strike was lost even
though it was spreading daily due
to their action.
At present, the Finnish strike is
weakened because the leaders have
made it housekeeping" affair
This means that the sailors do not
strike on the job but quit after CIV
ing Z days notice and jobless union
members do not ship out. The ships
are manned by scabs who also unload
where the longshoremen refuse tc
handle cargo.
Slander Soviet Longshoremen.
The Finnish reformists have at
tackled the Soviet longshoremene for
unloading ships. The ships that come
into the Soviet Union are chartered
by the Soviet shipping trust and every
additional day that they are tied up
is money in the pockets of the Fin
nish shipping magnates.
When the crew of the Finnish ship
strikes in Soviet port as did the
crew of the Scandinavia" they are
housed at the Seamen's Club and
fed until they force the owners to
settle with them as no scabs can be
obtained. This happened in Lenin-
grad.
Exempt Rich Trade Routes.
The maneuvers OF the socialist-re-
formist leaders of the Swedish union
are seen in excepting certain routes
from the boycott. 1t so happens that
these routes are the most profitable
and vulnerable of the Finnish ship
ping capitalists!
The International of Sea and Har-
Dor Workers is supporting the Fin
nish seamen's strike. 1t calls for a
worldwide boycott of Finnish cargo
in all capitalist ports. Finnish ships
are manned by scabs at present. For
international solidarity of sea and
harbor workers, don't unload Finnish
ships!
