Caffery Leads
New w ave of
Terror
Thousands Fill JaiIs
Workers Appeal
for Support

HAVANA, Feb. 23.-Advised by o. 8,
Ambassador Jefferson Gallery, who
conducted the mass murder of strik-
ing United Fruit Company workers in
Colombia few years ago, the Men-
dieta government has unleashed a
rein Of terror in Cuba which far exc
ceeds the most murderous periods Of
the AIachado regime.
The aim is to carry through the sugar
harvest without concession to the
workers. and the terror is directed
first Of all against the Communist
Party, as Fulgiencio Batista, army
chief, announced a few days ago.
Thousands Arrested
Only S. mills are grinding yet. m
Camaguey, Oriente, Santa Clara and
Habana provinces, thousands Of work
ecs have been arrested and thrown
into Jail for indefinite periods under
Article Of the new labor law, which
mokes strikes illegal.
Assassinations in Machado Style
are being carried out, and recently
four bodies Of leaders Of the Nazabal
SUGAR mill strike were found near
Encrucijada.
The greatest terror is at the Preston
sugar Mil, owned by the United Fruit
Company, where over $4,000 workers
80 employed. Over 400 soldiers have
been sent to break their strike. Doz-
ems of workers have been wounded,
and all hospitals in the vicinity ara
filled.
Mills Strike in Sympathy
All the nearby mills have struck Ia
sympathy - the Boston, Baguanos,
Tacaio, Delicias and Chaparra mills,
and have brought forward their own
demands.
The workers Of the North Cuba
Railway Company, although forced
back to work with few Of their de-
mands granted, are refusing to ship
SUGAR from any mill on strike.
Immediate international support on
a gigantic scale is required If the
Preston strike is not to be drowned
in blood like the Colombia strike,
where Caffery directed q gigantic
slaughter.

differed and trained by the U. S.
Marines, moved down General All
gusto C. SANDING, his brother Soc
rates SANDING, and their aides, Gen
eral Estrada and Umazor, along with
three of their followers, Thursday, in
Managua, the capital of Nicaragua.
The details Of the gruesome ex-
ecution of the erstwhile leader of the
intrepid band of workers and pea
SAINTS who for years resisted American
armed invasion in Nicaragua, are ex-
tremely obscure. SANDING had made
his peace with DR.. Juan B. Sacasa,
president OF Nicaragua, by the grace
of Wall Street. He was in Managua
to receive payment Of the bride paid

Who Vas General
Augusto c. SANDING?
Execution of SANDING and Six Aides Follow Long
Series of BetrayaIs of Armed Struggle Of the
Nicaraguan Masses Against U. S. Imperialism

and Hoover's reign, American impe-
rialism surveyed Nicaragua as a site
for new Atlantic-Pacific canal, as
well as for war bases in the Atlantic
and Pacific Ocean"
The masses of Nicaragua resisted
the invasion of American imperial
ism. Hence marines were sent to
support whatever puppet Wall Street
wanted in power.
Augusta SANDING organized an
armed band to resist. He had no
clearly defined program, and did not
attempt to rally the great masses of
workers and peasants who hated
Yankee imperialist domination. But
SO long as he carried on an armed
struggle to GUST the Wall Street in
vader, SANDING received the support
of the anti-imperialist masses thru
out Latin-A America and in the United
States.
The U. S. marines did not hesitate
to use bombing planes against San
dino.
In his recent mock horror against
the shooting down of Austrian work
ers, their wives and children, Will
liam Green forgot to mention the fact
that U. S. bombing planes burned and
destroyed whole villages, killing hum
dreds of men, women and children
in their efforts to defeat Sandino's
army Even this murderous attack
on unarmed villages, failed to defeat
SANDING.
Finding the 5000 marines and au-
Hillary forces insufficient to defeat
the SANDING forces, the American i'm
perialists organized the Nicaraguan
National Guard, drilled and armed it.,
and made 1t an armed tool to sup
press workers and peasants upris-
lngs.
After the expenditure Of millions
of dollars, and with the destruction
of hundreds of lives Of Nicaraguan
workers and peasants, American i'm
perialism, thanks to its puppet gov
ernment in Managua, was able to
consolidate its power.
! CANDINO was offered brides, and he
y appeared to vacillate many times.
He received money for the establish
ment of a cooperative" farm in the
Coco River district.
On February 8, 1888, he signed q
pact, offering to lay down his arms,
disarm the workers and peasants, and
submit to President Sacasa. But some
hitch developed in the proceedings.
Probably SANDING could not deliver
the goods.
Socrates SANDING, his brother, dur
ing the year 1928, toured the United
States under the auspices Of the
/ Anti -Inperialist League. Huge mass
meetings were held in New York,
Chicago, Detroit, and other cities at
which Socrates SANDING spoke. He
was given tremendous ovation by
the American workers fighting
against Wall Streets bloody rule in
Nicaragua, and in support OF their
bro hers in Nicaragua.
The struggle of the Nicaraguan
workers and peasants, led by Sam
dino, and later betrayed by his vacil-
lations and dealings with the puppet

The Militant Seamen's Strike

"THE marine workers will write their own code
through strike action" With these words from
Roy Hudson, National Chairman OF the Marine Work
ers Industrial Union delegation Of 200 seamen and
1ongshoremen walked out of the maritime NFIA. code
hearing in Washington on January 81.
I..e militant seamens strike in Boston, led by the
Marine Workers Industrial Union, is smashing blow
at the wage-cutting slave code Of the ship owners
and their agents. M Olander Paul sharenberg and
Andrew Furuseth, leaders Of the International Sea-
mems Union.
Beginning with the crew OF the SIS. Isaac Mann
walking of. refusing to trim COAL the strike spread
to practically every coal boat in the harbor.
This strike. involving over 10 ships crews, the
greatest strike since 1928 has proven that the marine
workers will not accept the strikebreakng National
Maritime Board Plan proposed by Ts.U. officials at
the November code hearings.
Andrew Fmuseth and the shipowners have proposed
to set up an impartial" body for compulsory arbtra
ton of all grievances OF the seamen, thereby taking
the strike weapon out Of their hands.
The vicious code reads in part
"29. OBLIGATIONS OF PARTIES No stop
page Of work or lockout shall take place until dispute
or difference between shipowners and seamen have
been referred to and dealt with by the Port Consult
ants the District Sections, and, if necessary by the
National Board.

agement, direct indirect shall be afforded by

Furthermore, the code of the leaders Of the IsU.

workers.

WHAT, in brief is the code OF the M.WIUY
It is a code which demands the 1929 wage
scale, $3.50 for able seaen and $40 for coal burning
hremen; code which demands rs cents an hour for
all necessary overtime recognition of committees the
abolition Of the blacklist and recognition of the Marine
Workers Industrial Union. The MWLU. code demands
that central shipping bureaus controlled by elected
committees of seamen shall be set up in each port
Under the leadership Of the MWIU. the seamen
OF Baltimore have forced the shpowners to recognize
their Central Shipping Buro which controls so per
cent of the shipping through the rotary system thus
eliminating discrimination and the blacklist.
In the past year the Marine Workers Industrial
Union has led over so strikes It is the only union
that has led strikes of seamen since 1928
The Marine Workers Industrial Union has always
exposed the National Recovery Act as a means OF
the bosses and the government to reduce wages and
further mitacize the marine industry in preparation
for the imperialist war.
It is no accident that the New York Herald
Tribune said editoriay on Feb % that I'VE know the
sincere interest that President Roosevelt feels in Amer

It's all over and Bobby Jones, Jr,

18th with 294 for u holes In the COM
pany, incidentally, of the past and
present British open champions. Wal

outstanding fact remains he was
soundly beaten because he lacked
control and confidence around the
greens.

That's the full extent to which he
intends ever to return to competition.
