Moving relentlessly forward in

By International News Service
Moving relentlessly forward in
its campaign to make America
unsafe for ganRsters. the De-
partment Of Justice today laid
plans for the convening here
next November or December of a
conference OF Federal and State
law enforcement agents to map
out q new national offensive
against crime.
Plans for the national confer
ence we're announced by Attorney
General Cummings, who said it
will consider practically every
aspect of crime and approach
the problem of law enforcement
in way never before at
tempted"
President Backs Plan
Mr.. Cummings added the con-
ference has the Endorsement of
President Roosevelt and that rep
reSentatives Of every State as
we'll as other law enforcement
agencies will be invited to attend.
He added:
1--WE are engaged in q grim
and serious business. The So
luton of the problem is a mat
ter of time and constant, un-
reIenting work."
The Attorney General said graft
flying progress already had been
made in the Federal campaign
against crime. Especially the ef.
forts to sever the connections be-
tween criminals and dishonest
public officials. He asserted:
"The common gangster, the
corrupt corporation, the crooked
official and the cOnniving law.
yer certainly can find comfort
neither in the record nor the
outlook.
OFFICIALS INVOLVED
"In some communities poll
tics and corruption were so
interviewer, gangsters and Off
cials so interlinked, that the
trails followed for criminals led
also to men supposed to be hold
ing public trusts"
Mr.. Cummings also assailed
those who romanticize crime and
are inclined to sympathize with
the criminal rather than the law
enforcement agents. He said:
II regret to report o segment
Of the public has exhibited .
maudlin. sympathy toward the
most despicable of gangsters."

HITLER STRIVES
To WIN FOES
by KINDNESS
By TOM WILHELM.

BERLIN. July z Q.N.S).
Chancellor Adolf Hitler today
opened a barrage of kind words
on the storm troopers against
whom he sent a barrage of bullets
only a week ago.
Evidently anxious over the grow
ing unrest in the ranks of the
army he created to lift himself
into power. Hitler took steps to
conciliate the dissatisfied elements
and to hold the loyalty of Brown
Shirts.
HOneyed Phrases
Two of his trusted lieutenantS,
Rudolph Hess and Wilhelm Kube,
were chosen by Hitler as his chief
conciliators. Hess, the vice chief
tain of the Nazi party, declared:
"The party has not forgotten
its old Storm Troopers, and it
is known that the old, SeIf-saCri.
ficing fighting Storm Troopers
had nothing to do with the con-
Scienceless mutineerS who were
at the head of the Storm
Troops. l, as an old Storm
Trooper, will never permit that
my Storm Troops comrades
shall be inSulted or degraded"
In an article in the Beobachter,
Kube, likewise an old comrade of
the chancellor, declared:
"The old storm troopers re-
main the central part of the
Nazi party. ROehm and his
cOnfederates were buns"
SITUATION CRUCIAL
The obvious anxiety of the
Nazi party to reassure the storm
troopers after the execution of
their leaders in last weeks "purg.
ing" of the alleged traitors in the
Nazi ranks. indicated the serious
ness with which the situation af.
fecting the Brown Shirts is re-
garded.
It followed the announcement
by Victor Lutte, the new COM
mander Of the storm troops. that
reorganization of the Brown
Shirts and a reduction in their
number would be effected.
Lutte declared that member
ship in the storm troops hereafter
would be confined to those who
were 100 per cent loyal to "Der
Fuehrer." the name by which
Hitler is known to his cohorts.
In some quarters, it was be-
lieved that the plan was to drop
from the ranks of the Nazi army
some of the newer elements and
retain the veterans, those who
have been tried and proved worthy
since the earliest stages of the
NaZi movement.

Ruling Class Seeks to
Isolate Strikers from
the Masses
BY MILTON HOWARD

TERRIFIED by the mightiest gen.
4 eral strike in the history of this
country, the American ruling class
is turning the full machinery OF
its class power against the Pacific
Coast strike.
The ruling class now has one
objective in It's offensive against the
Pacific Coast workers = to isolate
them from their class, the workers
OF the rest of the country, to split
them off from all communication
with a militant, class conscious lead
ership, and above all, to rouse the
furies of violence and Fascist re-
action against the working class and
its revolutionary vanguard, the
Communists.
For this purpose, every capitalist
newspaper office, every propaganda
agency bound to Wall Street by the
my-igc, invisible ties of financial
e '', i now letting loose a steady
stream of filth, a raging roar OF
!. -. ai,3 r'aseist proYocation
ag2-.3ss the strike and the Conrmu-
nist-.
The elimination of this campaign
to depict the general strike of the
Pacific Coast workers as being OPP
posed to the interests of the vast
msicrity of the population, is the
deliberate attempt to provoke Fas-
cist violence against the Communist
Party and the Communists who are
doing such valiant service in the
fight for the demands of the strik-
ers, as a preliminary for fascist at
tacks on all workers.

Huge Actions
Communist Delegation
Proposes Unity to the
Socialist Party

NEW YORK.-AS part of the in
ternstional day of struggle against
imperialist war, a mass demonstra-
ton will be held August in Union
Square at 4:30 pm. under the initia-
tive of the Communist Party.
Every effort is being made to draw
in mass organizations, and especially
Socialist Party workers, in mighty
protest against the war prepare
tons of the Roosevelt government.
A delegation representing the New
York District of the Communist
Party will visit the New York City
Committee of the Socialist Party
to propose joint action on this day.
The N. Y. District of the Com
munist Party yesterday issued direc-
tives to Party units and fractions
for anti-war activity before August
/. Every section Of the Party will
prepare at least two anti-war &C
tons aimed against war prepara-
tons at docks, piers, munition plants,
etc. Steps to mobilize workers in
the basic industries against war
have been set as one of the central
tasks Of the Party. The District
Bureau of the Communist Party
yesterday issued statement relat-
ing to united front action against
imperialist war with the Socialist
Party. The statement follows:
THE New York District Buro Of
the Communist Party of the u.
S. A. has decided to send an Of
fetal committee to the New York
City Committee of the Socialist
Party to take up with it the ques-
ton of joint action against war and
fascism, on August LIST, the inter-
national day Of struggle against war
and fascism.
THE danger of war is growing
greater daily. Fascist trends and
methods are on a tremendous in
crease in the United States. The
American working class has the
duty of supporting their class
brothers in the European countries,
particularly Germany, in the strug-
gle against fascism. The struggle
for the freedom of Ernst Thael-
mann and all anti-Na1 victims,
is struggle against the entire Nad
regime in Germany and at the same
time a fight against the growing
fascist danger in this country.
in the face of such a situation,
it is the duty of every organization
that pretends to. represent the work
ing class, to leave no stone unturned
to bring about the broadcast united
front in struggle against war and
fascisn.
Therefore, the New York Dis
trict Buro of the Communist Party
decided to send an official commit
tee to the Socialist Party of New
York City for the purpose of try
ing to come to some understanding
for joint action against war and
fascism on August l."

them as was done in the case OF
the auto and steel workers.
The fight of the San Francisco
workers is a fight for the whole OF
organized labor, a fight for the
whole working class.
Organized Labor, every A. F. Of
L. Local, every A. F. Of l.. mem
Der, every honest worker must
come to the support of the San
Francisco General Strike.
Brothers in every local, pass reso-
lutions of solidarity with the San
Francisco strike.
Demand from the A. F. OF L.
Council and from every Interna-
tional Executive Board, every State
Federation and Central Labor Body
full support for the San Francisco
strike. Raise funds for the strike.
Demand the withdrawal Of all
armed forces from the strike area,
Demand an end to the reign OF
terror. Send protests to the PreSi-
dent, the Governor and the Mayor
of San Francisco.
Demand the immediate freedom
of Tom Mooney, kept in prison by
the same master class that refuses
to grant the workers demands, that
is out to smash trade unionism.
Force your leaders to demand the
release Of Tom Mooney.
Take steps in your city to organ
ize jointly with all other workers
organizations huge meetings of pro-
test in support of the San Francisco
strike.
Fight in your local unions for the
same policies that have placed the
San Francisco workers into the
front line in the fight for the labor
movement of this country.
Break down all resistance Of the
bureaucrats who stand in the way
of support to the San Francisco
strike.

Ruthless Exploiters
Suddenly Appear AS
"Public'so Friend

cation against the Communists,
that the ruling class itself is rails
ing the question of power, of the
revolutionary seizure of power,
The Central Committee of the
Communist Party has already
singled out as the distinguishing
phase of the present situation, that
the wave of single strikes become
general strikes, and that these
general strikes develop into poll
tical struggles against the capt.
talist system itself.
Certainly, the way in which
the entire ruling class apparatus
of the country, from Roosevelt
/ down to the smallest newspaper
offices, has been modified
against workers who are fight
ing only for the simple demands
of bread, better hiring conditions
and union rights, indicates that
the daily struggle for the most
elementary rights now can no
longer take place without raising
with the utmost urgency the
vital question of power.
But in the immediate struggles
on the Pacific Coast, there is nc
question of power.
The propaganda of the employ
ers raising the spectre of the i'm
mediate struggle for power, is only
part of its technique for obscuring
the immediate issues of the strug-
gle, the struggles of the workers
against the daily misery of theil
wage slavery
