great protest in which the forces aligned against ia
scism in Germany will stand shoulder to shoulder for
struggle
Working class organizations here will rise to the

and nteectuals will rise against the cultural barbar
ism of fascisn.
Two weeks ago at Madison Square Garden, Rabbi
Stephen s. Wise declared that his prOtes not against
the political program of Germany-but only against
ant-Semitsm'.
Tonight tens of thousands of workers and SYM
pathizers will protest precisely against the political
program of the fascist dictatorship.
With the development of policy of concealment
of atrocities carried by the American State Depart
ment, and by bourgeois Jewish spokesman, the import
of this meeting has grown. Ever since the be-
ginning of the fascist atrocities there has been
certed policy among those leaders to se the protest
against anti-semtsm. The American Jewish Congress,

Tonight'S Meeting

NEW YORK-The call of the Conf
munist Party to the huge united front
mass protest meeting to be held to-
night at Madison Square Garden has
been endorsed by large sections Of
workers as well as by leading intel
lectuals, who see in the valient Strug-
gle of the Communist Party the I'M
compromising enemy of German
fascism.
Roger Baldwin, chairman Of the
American Civil Liberties Union, who
will speak tonight, said in state
ment issued vest erday:
The Hitler dictatorship has struck
at every element opposed TO its ruth
less program, but most of all at the
Communist Party, its most uncom-
promising enemy. AS a non-Commu-
mist, I join with the Party here in
its international protest not only
against German fascism but against
all fascism. Every ibertarian, wheth-
er he believes in liberty in principle
or for class purposes, should support
to the limit every effort to oppose and
destroy this monster of reaction
This manifestation, including the
participation of J. B. Mathews, Secre-
tary of the Fellowship of Reconcilia-
ton and Socialist Party member who
will speak tonight, and of Reuben
Brainin, noted Jewish intellectual and
writer whose statement will be read
because Of his illness, comes at time
when the State Department is rnin~
iinizing the fascist terror and such
organizations as the American Jewish
Congress are withdrawing support
from anti fascist demonstrations
In contradiction to this attitude
is the attitude of thousands of intel
lectuals-Jewish and Gentile-as ex-
pressed by Reuben Brainin when he
says:
1.-THE inhuman treatment dealt
out by the Hitler regime TO jews for
no reason but their racial identity, TO
Communists because they hold poll
teal and economic beliefs in OPPOSE
ton to It's fascist policies. and to all
others who have ventured to speak
out against its recklessly destructive
ideas and actions must be denounced
by every straight-thinking individual
or group regardless of race, creed, or
political affiliation.'

The following appeal of the Cen
trail Committee Of the German
Communist Party, issued on March
Is, ten days after the elections of
March 5, and at time when the
fascist terror already was in full
swing, indicate the bold, heroic line
set out by the Communist Party
In its work of organizing a mass
united front of all workers against
Hitler's program of terror and
hunger:
Party Comrades! Our Party has
fought in brilliant fashion under
conditions Of pogrom and elections
dominated by terror
The Fascist Goering has had to
burn the Reichstag as beginning
of the pogrorn against the Com
munist Party and the revolutionary
proletariat.
Tsais Government Of ciyil war has
cast into prison the leader OF our
Party, Comrade Thaellnann, whom it
plots to assassinate.
It has caused thousands Of anti
Fascists to be arrested.
The Fascist bands have massacred
workers and burnt their homes, in
the interest of the mill.onaires, the
big capitalists and of the Junkers
Our Party, compelled to carry on
it's policy Of nlobilizing the masses
and waging workers battles under
conditions of illegality, has rallied
nearly five million voices to the ban
ners of Communism and the slogans
of the struggle of liberation against
Fascism.
Comrades! Boldly and fearlesSly in
unity with the Social-Democratic
workers and workers with no party
attachment, you have conducted po-
litica1 strikes of protest against FaS-
cist terror. The rhythmic beat of
workers demonstrations has re-
echoed in many towns . And if
Hitherto Fascism has succeeded in
strengthening the Nationalist stream
and in utilizing IA years Of Social
Democratic politics in order to res
cue capitalist domination, the civil
war OF Hitler against the toilins
masses reveals none the less the
feebleness of his Government.
The bourgeoisie Is no longer In
the position to make safe the In
teyests Of finance capital and Of
tho Junkers in the methods OF
domination used heretofore.

masses, can give to the workers
neither bread nor work.
All its activity is confined to burn
ing the Reichstag, to shooting prole-
tarians, to raising customs tariffs in
the interest Of the Junkers, in order
to increase unemployment, lower
wages and pile up ornaments.
Hitler Defends Big Capital.
Hitler can do nothing except de-
fend the interests of big capital and
wage civil war against the toilers
That is why we ought to succeed
and why we shall succeed in the
struggle for the vital interests OF
the working class, in the struggle
against the capitalist policy OF Hit
Ter, in winning over those Of the
workers who have been deceived by
the Nationalist frenzy Of Hitlerite
Fascisnl.
This aim we shall attain despite
Fascist terror, by a ruthless and un-
wearying struggle for the daily in
terestS Of the masses, and by an in
tensified agitation among them.
Despit the pompous declarations OF
the Government, March is not a
victory for Fascism; it shows, on
the contrary, that the masses of the
toiling people are resolved to wage
the struggle, boldly and courage
ously, against the Four-Year Plan OF
Hitler, Plan Of famine, Fascist ter
ror, and exploitation.
The concentration of Fascist forces
is serious warning to all workers
to cement without delay the united
front of struggle.
Strikes Show Path.
The strikes and demonstrations OF
Lubbock, Brunswick, Dresden, Erfurt
Stassfurt, Duisburg, Elmshorn, Har-
burg, etc, show the path of the
united front of struggle.
Everywhere it ought to be like this
On March !, at the same time that
we launched the appeal to the work
ing masses, we sent to the leadership
of the Social-Democratic Party and
to that of the A.D.GB. German
Federation of Trade Unions) an Of
fer of the united front for the gen
eral strike and mass demonstrations.
The two lesderships spurned this
united fr4lt action.
Corradesl The setting up of the
united front of struggle of the toll
ers is the task OF the hour and is a
vital question for the German work
ing class.
Organize everywhere factory meet
ings and unemployed meetings in or

and Social-Democratic workers mea-
sures of common struggle for the
liberation of Thaelmann and of all
workers in prison, for the resembling

ton of the rights of meeting, of the
Press, and of demonstrations, regard
ing the auxiliary police, regarding

Through Partial Struggles TO
Political Strike.
BY wave of partial struggles, lead
the working masses to the political
general strike. Persuade your trade
union comrades, persuade the Social
Democratic workers and the mem
bers of the Reichsbsnner of the
necessity OF taking concrete methods
of struggle in these organizations, by
strikes and demonstrations, in favor
of the above claims.

Trade Union International.
With this statement the socialist
leaders reveal themselves as opposed
TO any real united front action
against the Hitler terror The Social
list Party has never before waited for
instructions from the Second Inter
national before taking action on
questions in this country. 1t is also
significant that the socialist and
right wing trade union leaders still
maintain their connections with the
leaders Of the American Jewish Con-
gress who have announced that, at
the request of the u. S. State De-
partrnent, they have suspended their
so-called protest campaign againss

|CHER0N'S BUDGET
PROJECT APPROVED
Cabinet Action Over Protests
Expected to Bring Fight
in Chamber.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, January 14.-In the face Of
heavy opposition by war veterans and
state employees, the cabinet tonight ap-
proved details Of Finance Minister
Cheron's project to balance the 1888
budget.
A heated debate, however, is expected
when the chamber considers the new
budget plan, for in parliamentary cir
cles the governments position is seen
as precarious. It Is considered likely
that the anticipated crisis will come to
head at the end of another week
It was learned that among the pro-
posed reductions is slash of 5000 00C
francs in the military appropriations
and that internal taxes on sugar and
coffee will be increased.
Minister Cheron, 1t was understood
reported to the cabinet that the 1885
budget deficit, which has been accumu-
lating since July II, would amount tc
1854. 100000 francs (s421 ,640, ,000)
which he planned to Offset by economies
and fiscal changes, meaning new taxes
allowing a surplus of 238, ,00o,0 francs
M. Cheron declared that sacrifices
demanded of governmental workers ir
order to balance the budget would bt
temporary, and that there are abuses
in the veterans pensions which must
be stopped.
Hostility by Socialist supporters Of
Premier PAUL. cabinet to the
financial measures was reported a few
days ago. and as a result the cabinet
was in peril. The 118 members of the
Socialists group in the Chamber were
said to be opposed to new taxes and
TO be considering a counter project.
