2 Parties
Negotiate
On UNITY
Issue Plea for Defense
of Soviet Union and
Austrian Workers
BULLETIN


SULZBACH, Saar, Aug. 26.-
An anti-Fascist united front
counter demonstration to the huge
Nazi mobilization arranged by
Hitler at CobIenz was held here
today by the Socialist and Com
munist Parties of the Saar.
The Communist speaker, Pfordt,
declared that for the Saar to come
under Hitler's rule would be
catastrophe. Hitler means war,
misery and terror" he declared.
PARIS. - The Communist
and Socialist Parties of Italy
are now discussing united
front action. While the nego-
tiations are taking place the
two parties have issued a
joint appeal to the Italian
workers and to all anti-fascists to
rally in a united struggle against
imperialist wa. in support of the
peace policy of the Soviet Union
and for the defense of the Soviet
Union.
The appeal reads in part:
Twenty years after the mass
slaughter of 1914 situations re-
semblng even in form those of 1914,
;ecur, placing Europe on the brink
of war.
The killing of the execulioner OF
the Austrian proletariat (Dollfuss)
served as a pretext for the Italian
government to mass imposing mill
ta.y forces at the Austrian border.
I'VE denounce the hypocrisy used
in fooling the masses as to the
motive and purposes Of the Italian
mobilization. 1t is not, as the fas-
cists press hypocritically claims, an
act of defense of the independence
of Austria, but an act of war for
the domination of Austria, and for
the oppression of the Austrian
workers who are fighting against
Hitler. the Starhembarg and
Schuschnigg bands and in defense
of their freedom.
"The only struggle for the indie
pendenee of Austria is the struggle
of the proletariat at the head of
the entire toiling population, against
the Hitler, Mussolini, and Catholic
fascist bands. Therefore, our
slogans are:
Against the shipment of arms
and troops to the border.
For the withdrawal of troops
from the border
"For the right of the Austrian
people to decide their own affairs
and to form a government accord
ing to their aspirations.
The appeal after Analysing in
clea- and vigorous terms the aspects
of the world crisis and the i'm
perialist contradictions which make
for war, further states:
The Italian Socialist Party and
the Communist Party of Italy have
decided to support a peace policy
such as that of the Soviet Union
and consider as their most inlpelling
tasks:
"The defense of the Soviet
Union;
"The demand for self determine
ton of all oppressed peoples;
Not a man, not cent for war.
All funds used for military pur-
poses, for the fascist militia, and
for the police to be given over to
the unemployed. to the disabled
and to the poor peasants"
To the soldiers sent by Fascism
outside of the borders to Cypress
other peoples, the two parties say:
"Fraternize with the Austrian
workers, support their struggle
against the Fascist bands, fraternize
with the soldiers of all other ma
tions, be loyal only to one flag, the
red flag of socialist revolution.

Flower Girl
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Will you please tell me if it
is correct to have a small flower
girl assist at an informal we'd
ding. that is, when the bride is
not wearing a wreath and veil
and is having only one brides
maid?
Also would it be correct for
the sister of the groom to hold
a shower in honor of the bride?
I think bridge and tea would
be the right thing, but have
been criticized by relatives for
not arranging a shower.
DOUBTFUL.
It is quite proper to have a
flower girl at an informal morn
ing church wedding. She walks
just in front of the bride and
her father.
I think that your taste is bet
ter about this-that, as the sis
ter of the groom, it would be in
better form for you to give a
tea and bridge rather than a
shower. Showers given by close
members of the families are
often criticized, as you evil
IDENTIFY know.

Now, fill the remaining space
with some nice red apples,
highly polished, one or two
oranges, a red banana, and a
yellow one, and top with one
perfect bunch of either red or
green grapes. Here and there
you might tuck a comquat or an
English walnut into the chlnks.
Or, if you prefer the vege'
table decor, use large wooden
salad bowl, also set in a bed OF
laurel leaves, and fill it with
shiny, polished eggplant, some
bright red tomatoes, some varl-
colored ears of popcorn, one or
two white onions peeled and
polished, a few small, shiny
green cucumbers, and here and
there a bit of parsley.
You will be surprised to find
how rich and colorful the
effect is when finished.
New and Unusual
For a very small table, you
might try the centerpiece that
I told you of last spring, which
was made of dark red cherries
and gardenias. Only this time
you could use well-washed and
polished cranberries, mounded
high on a rectangular crystal
platter, and set on a mirror
plaque.
Into the mound of cram
berries. in a straight row run
ming the length of the dish,
stick four gardenias, tucked
we'll in, so that only the heads
are visible. Or try red or any
colored roses or carnations the
same way in a mound of pop
corn, and see how that works.
Anything new and unusual will
add to the charm and spirit
OF the occasion.
Don't forget to check up and
see if you have several pairs of
nutcrackers if you are filling
the nut dishes with unshelled
nuts. These will save lots Of
teeth when the nuts and raisins
start going around!
If you want your plum
pudding to be particularly
fancy, douse it we'll with
brandy, JUST before serving,
and set fire to the brandy in
the dish, so that it will come
in flaming beautifully.
It has been a long time since
we have been able to do that,
and it is a rite that should
not be neglected!
About Wines
And just a word about
wines to accompany the dinner.
If you are having oysters on
the half shell, a Rhine wine
or Chablis should go with them.
If a clear soup is served-then
serve sherry with it, but if a
cream soup. then no wine with
that course.
Turkey and claret compile
ment each other to perfection,
and that should be enough,
unless you are really breaking
out with champagne and
liqueurs-in which case you
probably know all about it.,
and need no suggestions from
me.
If you wish only to have one
wine served throughout the
dinner-then the answer is
claret, and don't start it before
the turkey appears. After all,
the noble bird is the star of
the situation, and the one wine
should be chosen that will best
set off his charms.
