not long ago the Daily Worker pub
lished the cable news that Poland
had entered into a similar agree
ment with Germany, That accounts
for their presence at the Nazi
gathering, and it also sheds light
on Hitler's speech to the diplomatic
corps in Berlin on his return from
Nuremberg.
IF ever there was a better example
l of words concealing thoughts and
plans than the following uttered by
Hitler to the diplomatic crops on
Tuesday, we have never seen them:
"Today again I repeat in your
presence that it will be the I'M
swering aim of my policies to
make Germany a firm and fast
refuge Of peace.

the relations between nations but
the spirit of equality and respect
of the work and accomplishment
Of each nation"
THAT'S the same Hitler speaking
L who just a short while ago Or
dered the slaughter of his fellow
butcher Dollfuss to precipitate a
war for the seizure of Austria.
It's the same fend who has
slaughtered 5000 anti -fascists. as
we'll as 370 of his own duped follow
ers.
This angel of peace is the same
one who has made an alliance with
imperialism Gas stated
in the Japanese press and
never denied by Hitler that if the
japanese armies strike at the Soviet
Union in the East, the Fascist
hordes will move through the Baltic
from the West.
It's the same hangman who has
10000 armed Nazis in the Saar ready
to precipitate war for the seizure
of this territory.
0F course, Hitler did not expect
" the ambassadors to believe him.
He was speaking over their silk hats
in the belief that the great mass Of
people throughout the world who
would read his words in the news
papers are incurable idiots.

reports on the condi-
tions it saw in this land Of peace"
Madam Crozet. professor of mathe-
one of the delegates reported
the following facts:
First impression Of Berlin: When
taking first walk through the
streets of Berlin, the impression is
received of city struck by some
catastrophe. On all sides there are
empty shops, houses with signs to
let, offices for rent empty win
dows are utilized for Nazi propa-
ganda a picture of fascism its
results an election placard
Hitler, hung between two
signs, To let
working conditions in the Third
Reich: In order to show the extent
to which wages have decreased since
Hitler came to power, we take one
example at random from thousands.
Formerly the building workers
earned 81 marks weekly Now they
earn 1928 to 81 marks, and this al
though they work only five months
in the year. 1t may be stated gen
orally, that various categories OF
workers earn only one third-often
one half-of what they formerly
got.
Labor Service Camps: Again one
fact cut of thousands: 100 women,
living in - Street were sent to a
labor service camp in the country.
They were all raped by the Na1
commander and his functionaries.
Ninety-seven came back pregnant.
They now have to live by begging
or prostitution
Labor front: This is hated and
detested by the workers. Almost all
the functionaries behave brutally
to the workers forced to work under
them. The organization is prac-
tically compulsory labor system.
"Thaelmann's fate: We made
every effort for days to obtain per-
mission to visit Thaelmann. We
were sent from office to office. We
had the opportunity Of observing
that Herr Goebbels has been struck
with the idea of demanding that
the foreign embassies or consulates
should issue special identity papers
for visitors to anti-fascist prisoners,
and especially to Thaelmann. We
were not allowed to see Thaelmann,
and no answer was given to our
charge that he was maltreated."
all the newspapers in Cyprus re-
n port that the British in North
Africa tolerate the slave trade. The
