THE WAR SET-UP In WASHINGTON - By Seymour waldmn

EDITORS NOTE: This Is the
second of series of articles on
war preparations by Seymour
Waldman, Washington correspon-

I EST there be even a par
II ticle of doubt about the
war-conditioning n ture of
the fascist-tinted Civilian Con-
servation Corps, one need only
refer to Assistant Secretary
of War Woodring's article in
the January 6, 1884, issue of the
magazine Liberty. Woodring, whose
fascist war blasts were never re-
pudiated by the warship fancier in
the White House, wrote: This
achievement-the organization of
over 800, 600 men in more than 1900
Civilian Conservation Corps camps
was the first real test of the
Arny's plans for war mobilization
under the National Defense Act as
amended in 1920. It proved both
the efficiency of our plan Of de-

ern war, is a crafty proposal. 1t is
crafty because American imperial
lists realize that military planes are
two-edged weapon. Being rela-
lively cheap, even small countries
can afford them. They appreciate
the serious damage that a single
bomber could do to the Canal.
Therefore, 70 get rid of such men
ace to U. S. Imperialism is of no
small Importance, especially when
the War Department has plenty of
factories blueprinted and ready to
start into mass production of these
planes at a moments notice.
And If there is any doubt of the
indirect war preparations impor-
tance of the Coast Guard it should
be remembered that these armed
boats are being officered by Naval
Academy graduates instead of by
the customary licensed officers.

Proletarian Revolution

NEW YORK.-Mighty roars Of
working class solidarity shook the
steel beams of Madison Square
Garden on Friday night as $1,000
workers paid tribute to their daunt-
less German class brothers in the
person of Will Muenzenberg, for
mer Communist Reichstag Deputy,
when he appeared at the meeting
called by the Communist Party to
analyze the curernt German crisis.
Muenzenberg, who arrived in New
York a few hours before the meet
ing opened, was not introduced by
name until long after he mounted
the speakers platform. 1t was
enough for the assembled mass to
be told, however, that there was
present on the platform former
Communist Reichstag Deputy. The
announcement was greeted with
ear-splitting applause. The meet
ing rose spontaneously and unani-
mously to its feet, singing the In
ternationale. Smiling soberly, Muen-
zenberg returned the mass greeting
with a Red Front salute.

N.R.A. with the War Departn ent.
This tie-up is emphasized by the
fact that the very manufacturers
who draw up the NR.A. codes and
who constitute themselves as NR.A.
code authorities are the fellows
who play such prominent part in
the industrial mobilization plans Of
the War Department.
Industry is closer than ever,
since 1918, to the war machine
AS workers in greater numbers
become disillusioned in the N.R.A.

KOENIGSBERG, Germany
July 8.-Showing the swift

the fascist government as
solution for it's advancing in

Rudolph Hess today dared
France or any other nation to at
tack the New Germany"
\ Seeking to counteract the grow

Hitler fascist rule, Hess, speaking
for the government, sought to
rouse a war spirit of national
unity" against supposed invader
"The French soldier" he said,

Just dare to attack us, just try

they defended their own land
with the last drop of their blood.
Even so would Germany defend
herself with comparable fanati-

Despite this wartime jingoism
there is growing unrest among
the Nazi Storm Troops
Unmistakahe evidence that
the masses are raising the slo-
gans of Communist revolution
are seeping through the IRON
clad censorship of the German
Government.

following order threatening In

MOSCOW, July 8. (By Radio)-
A report received here from Khab-

diers started firing machine guns
near the Soviet Consulate at Sakh-
alin.
The significance of the incident
lies in the fact that Sakhalin lies
opposite the Soviet town Of Blago-
veschensk on the Manchurian side
of the Amur river which serves as
the boundary between Soviet and
Manchurian territory
The prank, which frightened
residents of the Soviet town, was
subsequently explained by Japanese
authorities as part of the street
fighting maneuvers which Japanese
troops had engaged in that day.
The Soviet Consul at Sakhalin has
lodged a verbal complaint with local
Manchurian authorities.
