SAYS GERMAN COMMUNIST
PARTY WILL CONQUER IN END
Under favorable conditions the
German Communist Party might still
make the revolution. The experience
Of the Russian Communist Party
proves this. The Russian Communist
Party had been illegal, it had been
brutally prosecuted, but the Russian
working class led by the Communist
Party eventually captured power. The
leaders of the German Communist
Party could not have thought that
if they did not act at once every
thing would be lost. The German
Communist leadership could not have
been so foolish.
The German Communist Party
was well aware that Illegal work
would cost innume-able victims and
would demand self-sacrifice and

revolutionary forces would strength
en- and that finally it would be able
TO accomplish the tasks confronting
it. That is why it is absolutely
out of the question that the Ger
man Communist Party at that time
should have planned to stake all
en- the decisive venture.
EXPLAINS THE
COMMUNIST INTERNATIONAL
1t should be added, moreover, that
the German Communist Party and
other Communist Parties are sections
of the Communist International.
What is the Communist Interna-
tional? Permit me to quote from the
statutes of the Communist Interna-
tional.
Dlmitroff reads the first passage of
the statutes:

TN SUCH MANNER WAS

After having read this quotation
from the indictment, Dimitroff said:
In such manner was the charge
cooked up"
Presiding Judge: "You must not
use such expressions with refer
ence to the Indictment.
Dimitroff: 81 shall think of an
ether word"
Presiding Judge: Gut more per-
Missile one"
Dimitroff: II shall return to the
method of accusation and the in
dictment in another connection. The
burning of the Refchstag-an anti
Communist action-was laid at the
door of the Communists, made to
appear as a signal for a Communist
uprising, signal for changing the
German Constitution. With the aid
Of this thesis the whole trial has
been given an anti Communist char
acter.
THE Prosecution takes the stand
that the burning of the Reichstag
must have been intended to serve as
q signal for an armed uprising" con-
ainued Dimitroff, reading from the
Indictment. The armed uprising was
TO be aimed at proclaiming a Soviet
Germany by the grace Of the Third
International"

the second paragraph Of the decree.

Dimitroff, remaTking that he was

DECREE ISSUED AGAINST
WORKING CLASS
The fifth para graph Of this de-
cree indicates that It was not pub
lished for the purpose of combat
ing a Communist uprising, but for
the suppression of working class
organizations and opposition bodies.
The President: Not the working
class, but the Communist Party"
must point out that on the basis
Of this decree, arrests were made not
only of Communists, but also Social
Democratci workers and christian
workers and their organizations sup
pressed. I want to emphasize that
this decree was directed not against
the Communist party alone, although
Of course. it concerned the Commu-
mist Party primarily, but against
other opposition parties and groups.
This law was necessary for the estab-
lishment Of an emergency situation.
Presiding Judge: "If you start at
lacking the German Government I
will deprive you of the right to
speak"
Dimitroff: During this trial there
has been one question which neither
the prosecution nor the defense has
cleared up. I am surprised that they
did not consider it pertinent. I have
in mind the question Of the political
situation in Germany in February
1888.

GOERING'S THESIS AGAINST
PARTY is A LIE

The thesis which has been attri-
buted to the Communist Party is not
a Communist thesis. Such a conjec-
ture shows that the enemies Of the
German Communist Party do not
know much about it.
In February, 1888, the Communist
Party was menaced with suppression
When the Communist press was
closed down, the suppression of the
Party was expected any minute. The
German Communist Party was well
aware of this, as is shown in its
leaflets and newspapers. The Ger
man Party knew very well that in
many countries the Communist Party
had been banned, but they continued
their work and are carrying on the
struggle notwithstanding. The Com
munist Party has been banned in
Poland, Bulgaria and several other
countries.

the experience Of the Bulgarian Com

was suppressed; it continued to func-

being a Bulgarian, am proud to be
a son of the Bulgarian working class.
Before dwelling on the principal
questions, must point out the fol-
lowing. We have been accused of
having placed ourselves in this stu
alton. I wish to point out that much
time elapsed between March 9, when
we were arrested and the day the
trial opened. During this period it
would have been possible to investi-
gate all the points which aroused
suspicion. When we we're arrested I
spoke to the officials of the inveSti
eating commission but these officials
told me that the Bulgarians were
not being accused of the fire. We
were charged merely on the basis of
cur passports, false names, wrong adj
dresses and so on.
Presiding Judge: "What you say
has not been brought up in court and
you have no right to refer to 1t here."
Dimitroff continued:
At that time all the data should
have been verified. This would have
obviated any charge being made.
CHARGE BULGARIANS
SENT FROM MOSCOW"
In the indictment it is stated that
although Dimitroff, Popoff, and Tan
eff maintain that they are Bulgarian
emigrantS it can be considered es-
tablished that they came to Germany
for illegal work. To quote the in
1ictment, they are sent by the Com
'nunist Party in Moscow to prepare
or an armed uprising"
On page SO of the indictment it is
tated that although Dimitroff said
that he was not in Berlin on the 26th
and 18th CT February, this does not
alter the case and does not clear
him Of the charge of participating
n the Reichstag fire. This is shown,

Further on read in the indictment:
While Dimitroff was not caught in

to establish an alibi. Pamphlets

WHAT FASCISTS ARE

Bulgarian fascists are savages and

A nation which for 500 years lived
under foreign yoke, nation
whose working class and peasantry
have conducted and are conducting
so heroic struggle against Bull
garian fascism and for Communism,
such a nation cannot be barbarous
and savage. 1t is the Bulgarian
fascists who are savages and bar
barians. but what fascists are not
barbarians?
The Presiding Judge again inter-
rupted, asking Dimitroff whether he
was not referring to political con-
ditions in Germany.
The Bulgarian people, Dimitroff
continued, have struggled long and
stubbornly against the foreign yoke.
That is why I protest against these
attacks on the Bulgarian people. I

The prosecutor pointed out here
that the Communist Party was in
position wherein it had either to give
battle or give way without fighting;

prosecutors opinion, things might
have turned out badly, but this would
have been no worse than if the Com

SICK SAILOR IS SAVED BY RADIO
Doctor Issues Typhoid Fever Instructions Via
 Ether Waves

Washington (UP)-A dramatic story of how doctor in New 1ork treated a sick Dutch sailor in mid Atlantic by radio was recited to- day in a prosaic report to the U. 5. public health service.
 It was the monthly report of the medical officer in charge of the U.. s. Marine Hospital in New York city. Doctors said 1t was typical of the radio medical advice which has been a feature of the public health service since. 1921.
 The first message from the Kat enbrecht gave the symptoms of a 17-year-old sailor who had, as it later developed, an attack of ty- phoid fever. A few minutes after the radiogram was received at the hospital back crackled across the ether waves directions on what should be done to help the patient and questions amplifying the de- scription of his symptoms.
 For Hive days. messages flashed back and forth between the doctor on land and the captain of the ship with sick sailor. Gradually the patient passed the crisis of his disease and was landed when the ship touched La Pallice, France.
 c. Cjoos. master of the Katen- brecht. sent a letter of thanks to the hospital authorities, copy of which was enclosed with the re- port as the final chapter in this medico-radio drama.
