Aircraft StrikeSA Are an Aid
to Soviet China

GHlANG kAl SHEk'S Marking regime
y according to cable reports from Shang-
hal has placed a heavy order for new
bombing planes with the United Aircraft
and Transport Corporation of Hartford,
Conn. where 1900 aircraft workers are now strik-
ing for improved conditions
The Roosevelt regime, anxious to help the des-
picsble Chang Kai Shek, as well as the U. A & T.
Corp has sent in one of its most efficient strike
breakers Madam Anna Weinstock U. S Depart
ment Of Labor conciliator, to wreck the Hartford
strike
These two items, culled from the news reflect
the policy of the Wall Street government in Wash
ngton strkebreaking at home in its efforts to force
down the living standards of the American workers,
and active support TO bloody butchers, like Chang
KaiShek, in their efforts to crush the rising revo-
lutiOnary movements of the colonial masses.
FOLLOWING in the footsteps of Hoover, one of
the first deeds of the Roosevelt administration
was the granting of a s5OOOOOOO cotton loan" to
the reactonary Marking Government of Chang
Kai-Shek. This quickly transformed into a
war budget by the Marking butchers for the sixth
anti-Communist drive against the Chinese Soviets.
Since then the Roosevelt regime has aided
Chang Kai-Shek in building up an air force of 300
or more planes for use against the Soviet districts
Captain Frank Hawkes. and Major Doolittle with
the encouragement of the United States War De-
partment have established an aviation school at
Hangchow.
The big order for bombing planes now placed
with the U. A. g. T. Corp. by Marking is merely
a further step rejecting direct Wall Street sup
port to Chang Kai-Shek's effort to stamp out the
Chinese Soviets and to crush the revolutionary up
surge of the Chinese masses The Roosevelt gov
eminent is the main hacker of Markings anti-Com-
munist wars
At the same time it stands sohdly behind the
j. P. Morgan-controled Curtis Wright and United
Aircraft corporations These companies are making
huge profits out of Roosevelts own armament build
ing program and from RooSevelt's support for the
plane-buying program of the bloody Marking regime
These profits ping up at the expense of the
aircraft workers. whose wages have been repeatedly
reduced and who are suffering under the 1ercest
speed-up.
EVERY American worker who feels the attacks on
~ his living standards his organizations and his
rights by the Roosevelt regime, every worker on
strike fighting for the right to live and improve his
conditions, should protest and fight against this
new armng of the butcher Chang Kai-Shek by
Wall Street against their Chinese brothers Every
effort should be made to stop the shipment of arms
bombing planes and ammunition to the butcher
Chang Kai-Shek.
In fighting against their bosses the aircraft
strikers of Hartford, Baltimore and Buffalo should
receive the support of all workers. They are fight
ing not only to improve their own conditions but
their fight hampers the militarization program of
Roosevelt and the murder drive of Chang Kali
Shek.
The American workers facing May Day with
tremendous strike wave against the effects of the
New Deal should declare their revolutionary soldar-
ity with the Chinese masses struggling against
Chang Kai-Shek
May Day this year should be mighty express
sion OF international revolutionary solidarity a
huge demonstration to express the fighting deter
mination of the workers to win their economic and
political demands against American imperialism.
May Day should show the American capitalists
that the American workers will rally for the defense
OF the Chinese Soviets against combined attacks Of
Wall Street and the butcher Chang Kai-shek.
