Refuses Work During
Rain, Fired AS
"Agitator"

NEW YORK.-The City Emergency
Work Bureau recently decided that
only the foreman on the project can
tell the workers to stop working when
it rains or threatens to rain. AS a
result many of the workers contracted
pneumonia and pleurisy, after being
compelled to work in the rain.
On Friday, Aug. Is, it threatened
to rain, and Al Rosado was observed
urging the men not to board the
buses that bring them out to the
job. The foreman reported the fol-
lowing back to the Work Bureau:
1892, Rosado, AL This man is
a leader and an agitator. Can excite
the workmen to point of refusing
TO work because it might rain. On
Friday, Aug. Is, the men arrived at
Bear Mountain bus station and it
threatened rain. These men in gen.
eraI were willing to get in the buses
and go out to the job with the knowl-
edge that if it rained heavy we would
send them back to the train :"

Araki declared as his reason for de-
handing this sum that the Soviet
Union and the United States were
preparing for war.
At the same time Count Yasuya
Ucllida resigned, giving his post as
Foreign Minister to Koki Hirota, for
mer ambassador to the Soviet Union,
who is known as an active supporter
of Araki's military policy, and is
looked on as stronger supporter of
Japanese militarism.
A second billion-yen issue is pro-
posed for next year, when Japan will
demand full naval parity with the
United States and Great Britain.

outlines the Tasks Before the Congress Against W.

answer t he question publicly,
whether it is not true that the
League Of Nations was no obstacle
to the imperialist war of conquest
of Manchuria by Japan, but on the
contrary, served only to hinder the
rousing of the masses of the world
against this historical crime. Can a
serious anti-war congress fail to
warn the American masses against
further such illusions? Can it fail
to register that little Cuba, despite
it's position as a member of the
League of Nations and signed of the
Kellogg Pact, has 80 American war;
ships in her ports, intervening in
the determination of her govern
ment? Can it fail to expose the
false character of the Disarmament
Conferences, their role as masks of
feverish preparations for imperial
list war? We can expect and de-
mand of the U. S. Congress Against
War that this minimum is the only
alternative to treacherous surren-
der to the coming imperialist war.
Where Does War Danger Rise?
Further, is there any anti-war
group that today can refuse to
recognize that the war danger arises
inevitably out of the existing sys-
tenn of capitalist society, out of its
exploitation of the masses at home
and in the colonies, and out of the
consequent inevitable struggle for
markets and sources of raw mater
ials? Can there be any serious
struggle against imperialist war,
which does not base itself upon the
fundamental aim Of changing the
social system that produces war, of
abolishing exploitation for private
profit of the productive forces Of
the world?
We can expect these things to be
made clearer to overwhelming mass
es of the population who suffer
from war, as a result of this Con-

imperialist robber wars. We can ex-
pect the Congress to establish this
point.
Only One Government in Peace
Of all governments in the world,
only one has consistently followed
peace policy throughout the per-
iod since the last war. That is the
Union Of Socialist Soviet Republics.
1t is precisely the danger of an i'm
perialist war Of intervention against
the Soviet Union that is central
point of the war danger today. A
serious struggle against war is i'm
possible today without support of
the peace policy of the Soviet
Union, without rallying the exploit
ed masses of all countries to the
defense of the Soviet Union which
has abolished the source of preda-
tory wars by abolishing capitalist
exploitation. We can expect that
the Congress will confirm this basic
principle in the struggle against
war.
1t is impossible to fight against
the forces of war in other lands,
unless we first of all fight against
preparations for war by "our own"
imperialists in America. Any seri-
Gus struggle against war must de-
clare it's unconditional opposition to
the naval and military preparations
Of the oRosevelt regime, its enor-
nous war appropriations, its forced
labor military camps, its national
list jingoist propaganda, its aggres-
sions in Latin America. The Con-
gress, on penalty of becoming a
mere "pacifist" mask for the war
makers, must declare itself on this
question We can expect that it
will do SO.

BY EARL BROWDER.
General Secretary, Communist
Party. U.S.A.

Party, U.S.A.
1t Is question that everyone
must answer, as to what attitude
he shall take toward the approach
ing new world war which is now
universally recognized. Therefore
it was timely that the U. S. Con-
gress Against War should have
been called, to meet in New York
City on Sept. 29th to Oct. 1, to
bring together representatives of
all organizations opposed to war to
consider what are the most effective
means to fight against the impend-
ing imperialist war.
All varieties of opinion and sill
sorts of organizations will be in
this congress. They range all the
way from liberal pacifist and So
cialist, to revolutionary working
class and Communist. l have been
asked to tell why the Communist
Party takes part in the preparation
of this Congress, and what it hopes
to see accomplished, what it thinks
can come out of such q babel of
conflicting views, in the way of a
unified program of struggle against
war.
Minimum Program
The Communists will be a very
small minority in this Congress. The
majority of the delegates will most
probably be persons already COM
mitted aaginst the Communist pro-
gram. The most that we can ex-
pect from this Congress, therefore,
is that some few outstanding ques-
tons in relation to war may be
clarified, minimum program of

gress. We can even hope that the,
Congress will be convinced to make
such a declaration officially.
Whence will come the necessary
mass forces to defeat imperialist
war? If the anti-war Congress
seriously wishes to rouse resistance
to war, it must recognize that its
basic forces will be found only
among those hundreds of millions
who suffer most from war and who
have class interest in fighting to
overthrow the existing system that
produces war. Such forces are first
of all, the working class and espe-
cially the workers in the basic in
dustries local, steel, chemicals, war
materially, together with the poor
farmers, and the exploited peoples
in the colonial and semi-colonial
countries.
Support of Colonial Struggles
The Congress Against War mus
base its program upon these forces,
and rely upon rousing these masses
to independent action, gathering
around them the other suffering
strata Of the population, the middle
classes, for any serious struggle
against war. We can expect to
convince the Congress Of this basic
programmatic point.
If we expect to unite the anti
war forces in the imperialist coun-
tries with the oppressed colonial
peoples, the anti-war program must
include support of the liberation
struggles of the colonial peoples. 1t
is impossible to be against war with
out opposing Intervention in Cuba.
That means that to fight against
imperialist war, we must support all
efforts of the colonial peoples to
free themselves, including colonial
wars of liberation against imperial
list oppression. That means the
anti-war program must not be
against wars in general, but against

organizations everywhere are adding
their kilograms and letters of protest

A meeting of farmers in Green
wood, Wis, last week, under the lead
ership of the United Farmers League,
telegraphed to Roosevelt denouncing
the growing war preparations and de-
handing that all armed forces be
withdrawn from Cuba.
Miners, farmers and unemployed
workers of Pineyille, KY, assembled
and sent a similar wire to the Presi-
dent, demanding that the Cuban
workers be given the right to set up
their own government without inter
ference.
Lonnie Williams, young Negro
worker elected delegate to the Paris
Youth Congress Against War and
Fascisn1, spoke at meeting of De-
troit workers gathered to bid fare

against American intervention in
Cuba last week.

This is not Communist program,

already been made abundantly clear
as an absolute minimum without
which there can be no pretence OF
serious opposition to the coming

The Communists in the coming

are prepared to unite with all forces,
including those who oppose the
Communist program, upon a serious
