perialist intervention raging in China. by the war
IN Latin American, by the open race for arma-
ments, by the gathering war clouds over Europe
and the Pacific that the peace set-ups-blatantly
praised as guarantees against future wars, have
proved to be a monstrous sham. Capitalism
itself has confirmed what the Communist Party
pointed out from the first. There is no peace
time under capitalism. What goes by that name
is merely breathing spell between one war and
the next. All the peace contraptions of capitalism
are, therefore, nothing but downright maneuvers
and receptions on the part Of the imperialist
Powers to screen their rapid preparations of the
new war.
The race hatred war is the desperate effort of
the boss class to get out of the crisis by saving the
capitalist structure of society
THE bosses efforts to get out of the crisis in the
capitalist way express themselves at the same
time in war at home against the working class

The First of August will mark the twentieth

In the sixteen years that have passed since
the so-caled Armistice, the bosses and their gov

been very busy preparing feverishly a new and

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal,
July 1.-THE splitting stra-
tegy predicted in earlier dis
patches is now being carried
out with the greatest energy
as the general strike became
effective today in Oakland
and all the Bay Counties.
There is the most intense
drive upon Communists ever
seen in this vicinity and es-
pecially upon all in the strike
leadership known to be or
suspected of being Commu-
nists.
Arbitrary raids and arrests,
destruction of headquarters
by rowing gangs operating
with police knowledge and CO.
operation in the Oakland re-
gion, has now been followed by the
raid upon the headquarters of the
Marine Workers Industrial Union
and arrests to the number of 200.
according to the local press. Stimuli
taneously, new maneuvers for an
agreement to submit all questions
to arbitration without guarantees
and an immediate return to work
are being carried today by the
politicians of the big capitalist par
ties within the Central Labor
Council.
In this way the employers are
working for split in two di-
rections, that is, between the
revolutionary workers and their
leadership in the strike and be-
tween the stronger elements of
honest and militant workers, and
that weak section, affected most
by the employers propaganda
and unprecedented display of
armed force. Their press is al
most unbelievably vicious while
the publicity of the strike com
mittee is compromising and GER
tainly not very effective among
the large numbers of middle
class people made uncomfortable
by the strike. There is likewise
here great concentration of

tor Wagner and General John

from Striking

NEW YORK. - Supporting the
general strike on the West Coast,
the American Radio Photographers
Association, with a membership of
1900 licensed radio operators, has
issued call to all its members ar
irving from the Pacific Coast to
leave the ships at once.
The Association will set up picket
lines in front Of all ships loaded
and manned by strikebreakers, Hoyt
S. Haddock, spokesman of the Or
ganization, said yesterday.
Three operators of the S. S. Santa
Paula. a Grace Liner which arrived
here Monday, walked off the ship
in solidarity with the West Coast
men.
Marine Union Picketing
The Marine Workers Industrial
Union will intensity its activity on
the waterfront, and has issued call
for all workers to aid in picketing
ships due to arrive from the West
coast. The M. w. l. U. has pick
eted all ships arriving from the West
Coast.
The ships due to arrive are: the
Jacob Luckenbach, from Seattle;
the Minnesota. from San Francisco,
and the San Vincente.
Ryan Would Halt Action
Fighting hard against the spread
ing of the strike to New York,
Joseph P. Ryan, president of the
International Longshoremen's AS
ISOLATION, whom the strikers over
rode when he attempted to put over
the shipowners' plan in San Fran
cisco, said that he did not expect
any strike action here.
There is, however, mounting
movement within the I. L. A. for a
sympathy strike in the East.

SAN FRANCISCO, July II.
The general strike wave
swept higher today as 10000
more workers of various in
dustries joined the army of
labor now battling in the
mightiest strike in the annals
of American labor.
All the East Bay cities are
now completely paralyzed,
with Oakland, Berkeley, Ala
media, and nearby territory
wholly shut down.
Ali Key route trains, fer
ries, and car lines have
stopped.
During this forward move
of the strike wave, the Ma
tional Guard troops have been
augmented to the astonishing
number of 5000, with 1900 ordered
to stand ready for immediate duty.
There is open talk that there is
every likelihood that these troops
will be used against the strike.
Soldiers and marines of two bat
tleships as well as police have sur

district, with police standing on

DAILY Worker Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON, D. c., July IT,
With the Army and Navy ready to
strike blow against the great Pa
cific Coast general strike and with
elaborate federal strikebreaking
machinery under full steam, grim
and tight-lipped official Washing
ton today settled down to watchful
waiting.
The White House let it be known
it is under pressure from big busi-
ness anti-labor Chambers of Com
merce for President Roosevelt to go
to San Francisco at once to direct
the smashing of the strike. There
are no indications, however that he
has decided to do this. 1t is prob
able that he will first let Senator
Wagner make complete co-or-
dination of the strikebreaking forces
on the coast and see what he can
do to meet the tidal wave of the
strike.
To Use Army
Recurring suggestions that federal
troops might be used reached a
climax today when the Washington
News, liberal Scripps- Howard chain
champion of the New Deal, carried
this startling contribution
Food supplies for strike

strikers themselves will be guar
anteed by the Government, it was
learned. Fulfillment of this prom
Use may result in use of federal
