by which the Nazi government has
saved" the small holders, then even
this master of demagogy would have
been at a loss for an answer. 1t is
only few weeks since the State
governor OF Baden, Wagner, was
obliged to reply as follows to rep
reSentative of the "VoelkiScher Beo-
bachter," who questioned him as to
the effect of the peasant legislation:
"On this point regret to say
that our population has not yet
recognized the great Importance
and scope of this law. Special en-
lightenmemt will be necessary In
order to make it clear to the peas
ants that their second and third
sons too must be provided for.
Besides this, among us the law does
not play such an important part
as for instance in East Prussia,
for among us it is question of
small farms of 10 to at most Is
hectares" ("Voelkischer Beobach-
ter" 24-1-34)
This is an open admission that the
Nezi legislation, with its ertail-farm
rights, can only benefit the large
farmers if it benefits any at all, but
only further increases the misery of
the small holder
Foreign Policy Failures
Let us in conclusion take glance
at the foreign political balance-sheet
of the Hitler government. Hitler and
his press have proclaimed the agree
ment with Poland to be a tremendous
success. The gentlemen are certain
ly not asking so much as they used
/ tot If Stressmann or Bruening has
concluded such an agreement, for
mally recognizing the Eastern from
tiers of Germany and relinquishing
the Corridor, the separated territory
Of Upper Silesia, and Danzig, then
the whole pack Of Nazi hounds would
have howled high treason" But
now these well-trained poodles OF
capital are delighted at the magnifi-
cent success of the peace policy Of

November, 1882
Though at the present time the
conditions under which the C.PG.
and the R.T.U.O. are fighting are
incomparably more difficult than

Struggle for Soviet Germany
Continues Unabated
The brutal slaughter OF our best
fighters, the threats of death against
our leaders, against Comrades Thael-
mann and Dimitroff, are intended to
lntimidate the revolutionary move
ment. The experience gained in one
year of heroic struggle by German
Communism, against the bloodiest
executioners' dictatorship ever known
in the history of the world, has al
ready shown that this hope of the
fascists is vain. The German work.

aid OF international proletarian sol-
darity,; is continuing its struggle I'M
inundated, with growing mass
power, for the release of the impris-
oned anti-fascists, for the repulse Of
fascist terror and of the intensified
capitalist offensive, for the breaking
down of the pernit ious social-fascist
mass influence, for the creation Of
the united front of proletarian class
struTgle, for the mobilization of the
masses for the revolutionary over
throw of the Hitler dictatorship, and
for the establishment of the prole-
tartan dictatorship OF the German
Soviet republic.

If it is left the possibility of terror

preparations for war, and OF plan

War On U.S.S.R. Is Main Object
Intervention against the Socialist
Soviet Republic remains the main OBJ
ject of the foreign policy Of national
socialism. But if the improvement
Of relations between German and
Polish fascism is weighed against the
restoration of relations between the
Soviet Union and the U.S.A., then
only blind man could fail to see
that in this sphere too the balance
sheet OF German fascism shows a
completely negative result.
The Nazi government is quite aware
that it is plunging forward into ever
increasing and disastrous difficulties.
But this is only the more reason for
it to increase its brutal terror against
the German working class and its
heroic vanguard, the C.P.G. The
new labor law is to pave the way for
a new naturalization offensive on the
part of capital. In view of the in
creased international imitation dump
ing, the German bourgeoisie is of the
opinion that the only way for it to
maintain its competitive capacity is
to exercise an even stronger pressure
on wages and working conditions.

True, the Amslgamated Association Of Street and
Electric Railway and Motor Coach Employees is not

for it and then make it class union.
Patrick J. Shea, vice-president OF the union has
always tried to keep the workers from developing

the workers strike double blow at both the bosses

ManchukuO Ruler

Intervention

HSTNKING, Manchukuo, Feb. %.
Surrounded by soldiers with drawn
bayonets, Henry Pu-Yi today pre-.
pared to go through with the cere-
mony Of enforcement as Emperor
of Manchukuo, puppet state OF Jap
anese imperialism.
From the very first, Pu-Yl has al
ready begun to sound the note Of
anti Soviet provocation, as instructed
by his Japanese masters.
Speaking to the press, he declared:
Us it not worth something to
the world that Manchukuo stands
at the crossroads between the So
Wet in the Orient, as s. bulwark
against the inroads Of BoIshevisln
in the Far East?"
Two years ago. Japanese imperial.
ism seized Manchur1a and set up the
paper government of the so-called

Since that time, the japanese I'm.
perialists have been feyerishly build
ing air bases and military roads
through Manchuoko straight up to

Japanese Govt
PrOvOcati tive
IN Reply Note
Demands ''Guaranteee'
AS 1t Builds War
Bases Near USSR

MOSCOW, Feb. %. The Soviet
Union again sent formed protest to the
Japanese government against the per-
sistent, provocative flying Of japanese
war planes over the borders Of the
Soviet Union. This is the second time
that the Soviet Union has been forced
TO take official notice Of the provoca-
tive activities Of japanese military
planes in the territory of the Soviet
Union.
Japanese Imperialism has built
scores of army airplane bases near
the borders of the Soviet Union, since
it seized Manchuria two years ago.
The Soviet Union, at the same time,
in its latest note sharply denies the
widely spread allegations of the jap
anese government that Soviet planes
have flown over into any parts Of
Manchukuo or Korea.
The latter denial was in answer 70
the note sent today by the Japanese
government to Moscow protesting"
against the alleged activities of Soviet
planes in Manchukuo and Korea.
In a highly provocative document,
typical of capitalist diplomacy imme-
diately prior to imperialist attack, the
japanese government demands guar
antees" that the Soviet Union will not
send amy more" of its planes into
Japanese territory.
The flinlsy nature Of the Japanese
allegations, indicative of their delib-
erately provocative character, is
shown by the fact that even one VI
the officials of the japanese War Of
flee told the press that ''he appre-
ciated the difficulty Of determining
whether plane is on Soviet or Jap
anese territory"

lished in yesterdays Daily Worker,
the writer discussed the inner poll

ship, the failure of the boosted

THE balance sheet Of economic pol
L icy. in the first year of Hitler's
dictatorship Is as negative as that OF
domestic policy. 1t is characteristic
that Hitler dealt at such length in
his speech with the achievement
Of dissolving the parties and the
trade unions, but SKINNED rapidly
over economic questions with a few
general phrases. Taking as basis
the faxed unemployment statistics
he ventured to make the assertion
that he had already accomplished
one-third of the abolition of unem-
ployment promised in his "four-yea1
plan" He maintained that by the
winter of 1888 the number of unem-
ployed had decreased from six tc
four millions. And this although the
boastful assertions of Hitler ano
Goering are fatty contradicted even
by the official statistics, which state
that the unemployed army has in
creased by another half-million. The
Nazi statistics themselves give Hit
ler's statement the lie.

TSo often, after a hand is made, you hear d player remark, Well. if I had led the queen, in stead of a small card, we would have de- feated the contract-but fou could hardly ask me to do that" But a good defensive player will us- ually figure out the proper play, and will not make a careless move.
 Some players might prefer to support spades immediately rather than show clubs over part ner's original bid of one spade in today's hand, but l believe a constructive bid of two clubs is bett~d. It is not difficult to vis- ualiEe the possibility of slam with your partner making an original bid when you hold hand similar to Norths. How ever, when you bid two clubs and pour partner simply rebids his own suit without making fur ther constructive move, you should then jump to game.

 Now, of the declarer has the king of hearts, he is not going to lose any heart tricks, so you should try to prevent an end play an your part an return the queen of hearts-not a small one. This will give you the chance of mak- ing a club and heart, and with the two diamonds you already have in, it will defeat the con- tract.
 Of course, double dummy, the declarer could still make his con- tract by taking two rounds of trump, ruffing diamond, return ing to his hand with the ace of clubs, and then leading a small heart.
 West will be forced to win with the king and now, as he has not h. ing but hearts or diamonds, the declarer will ruff in dummy with the queen of trump and discard his losing club.
