THIS April 9Th, 1884, anniversary of the
L entry of the United States into the
world war; is the most significant ami
versary Of that event for the American
working class in the seventeen years since
It was hurled into the last imperialist world
slaughter
The Roosevelt government is now creating the
most gigantic war machine this country has ever
known pouring billions Of dollars into its making
at a feverish pace
That machine is ready. It can and may be set
into motion tomorrow bringing death misery, and
catastrophe in its wake for the workers and farmers
of the United States
Today throughout the land thousands of lackeys
Of capitalism, governors, mayors. army officers,
pstroteers will sing the praise Of that gigantic
chine of death in the press over the radio in the
schools from thousands Of reviewing stands before
which will march members of the armed forces Of
American imperialism.
These speakers, with their poisoned words of
deceit and treachery, also part Of that machine
OF death and misery.
Pacifists will spew out their honeyed words,
speaking in oily tones of peace, while behind their
backs the gigantic machine of war moves powerfully,
at an ever dizzer pace.
MEXICAN Imperialism is moving ever faster
IA toward another The antagonisms OF the
nperialist powers fighting already with ever dead
her economic and political weapons each to pull it.
self out Of its crisis at the expense Of the Others
are at the breaking point.
The whole capitalist world is powder barrel of
var.
The growing uncertainty of the bOurgeoisie
as tie the possibility of finding way out of the
crisis only by the intensified exploitation Of the
tOiIers of their own countries. has led the i'm
perialists to put their main stake on war The
international situation bears all the features Of
the Of new world war"
This is the estimate OF the situation today given
BY The 18th plenary session Of the Executive Com
mittee Of the Communist International.
IAN imperialist war be way out of the crisis2
For the biggest capitalists, it means gigantic
profits AS they did in the last war, they lick their
chops in anticipation of the swollen gains to be
made in the traffic in blood and death.
But for the masses of workers and farmers for
the professionals and white collar workers war
means only increased misery increased exploitation
hunger, wounds, and death. It will not mean even
a temporary gain. 1t means only mass enslavement,
murder, mass horror and misery
This is the meaning Of the lingo phrases Of the
petrioteers.
AGAINST their lingo nationalist poison our inter
n national solidarity
We will not fight to swell their profits; but when
they put the guns into hands we will turn
those guns against the makers against the ex-
poiters to wipe out the whole system Of capitalist
exploitation which creates and thrives on war ex-
ploitation and pillage.
We will turn our guns on them to create work
ers and farmers government which has no need
Of war.
We will not fire at our brothers Of other lands
We will extend our hand to them in revolutionary
fraternity We will fight shoulder to shoulder With
them against their exploters and ours
We will emulate the Soviet Union the bulvark
of the world proletariat the bulwark of peace the
land that has crushed It's own mperialists forever
THROUGHOUT this country today at thousands
Of meetings, workers, farmers professionals stud
ents, will rally to give their class answer to the i'm
minent threat of war to the gIorifcaton of war BY
the Army Day patriots"
