Mass Fight
OnFascisnn in
South Italy
''DOwn With War!'' Cry
Workers and
Women

AT THE ITALIAN FRONTIER
(By MaiD Mass resistance against
war and fascism has developed in
several parts of Southern Italy.
At Bari, when the military au-
thorities ordered all windows closed,
lights out, etc, in connection with
anti-aircraft maneuvers, the women
began a protest. The protest grew
into mass action, with widespread
struggles in the working-class dis
tricts, led by women, shouting the
slogan, Down with war;
The military authorities were
compelled to cancel the anti-air-
craft maneuvers.
At Tarento, a manifestation be-
gan in the very ranks of the fas-
cists. 1t developed into mass dem
onstrations in the streets, where the
workers shouted, Down with fas-
cisml" Down with war;" I'VE want
workers and peasants govern
ment!"
The forces from three warships
in the harbor were called to break
up the demonstration. Four hun
dred were arrested, among them
many members of fascist organiza-
tons, and even a few officers of
the fascist militia.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, April
22.-While President Stenio Vincent
of Haiti has been in Washington
negotiating with President Roose-
velt for sell-out of the liberation
struggles of the Haitian people, ter
ror in this island republic has in
creased continuously.
The latest manifestation of this
repression is the outlawing by the
government of the Haitian United
Front Scottsboro Defense Commit
tee, of which Jacques Roumain
well-known Haitian writer, is the
secretary.
The committee has been forbidden
to circulate petitions in the island
for the freedom of the nine Scots
boro boys, or to carry on any &C
tivity.
A fight on this order made by
the minister of interior will be car
ried on, with the help of the work
ers in the United States, it was an
nounced.
Immediate protests against this
action should be sent to President
Stenio Vincent of Haiti, Wash
ingtOn, d. c., and to the Minister
of the Interior, Port-au- Prince,
Haiti, demanding the right for the
committee to carry on its work.
The illegal state of siege which
was declared in 1882 on the basis
of repealed law, extends over the
entire Department of the West
comprising three large cities and Is
important towns. Eleven news
papers have been suppressed under
this order, and all working class or
CARNATIONS dissolved.
The state of siege was declared
to prevent the organization of the
employees of Hasco Chatham Amer
lean Sugar Company, Wall st
concern, and of peasants who have
been appropriated for the benefit Of
the United Fruit Company.

The Charge of the MIRA

CHARGE"
The military command came from the
doughty, two-fisted general, Hugh L. john
son, author of the voluntary" Draft Act,
and trained in the World War
The attack was furious and relentless
tanks, heavy artillery, machine guns
and hand grenades Overhead zoomed
bombing planes hurting down destruction
and death. On the tanks, on the bombing
planes and on each machine gun was neat
ly placed the Order of the Blue Eagle
The intensity of the assault indicated
that victory was certainty. And when
the smoke of battle had cleared, vultures
were already swooping down upon the bat
tered remains of Jacob Mayed, tailor of
Jersey City, N. J.
Mayed is now clutching the bars of
cell in the Jersey City Jail, and must pay
fine of 800 for violating the Cleaners and
Dyers Code The press reports that while
Mayed is in Jail his wife and four children
are endeavoring to support themselves by
running the tailor shop,
1t seems that New Jersey officials
charged with prosecuting code violations
admit that there are scores of similar cases
in which convictions could be obtained, but
somehow or other the convictions are not
obtained possibly because the "vioIators"
are themselves in charge of the N. RIA
boards.
Latest reports from the battlefront in
dictate that the directors of the Weirton
Steel Corporation, the Budd Auto Body
Co., and Henry Ford weren't even dis
turbed by the flying shrapnel.

Soviets Gain Important
New Areas in Fight
Against Marking

cell Gall these figures have been
taken from correspondence from the
Soviet regions.
In the campaign for the strength
ening Of the Red Army, the work
ing class in the Soviet territories OF
China, led by the Communist Party
and Red trade unions have display
ed tremendous activity, heroically
supporting the Red Army. The
working masses have organized two
divisions which will unquestionably
strengthen the leading part played
by the proletariat in the Red Army.
A correspondent from the Soviet
region says that lin the campaign
to strengthen the ranks of the Red
Army even the old men and women
take an active part; although they
are unfit for military service they
are conducting vigorous agitation
among the young generation in
favor of volunteering in the ranks
of the Red Army.
Singo and Shichen Counties the
toiling population of the cities and
villages is sending its sons into the
ranks of the Red Army. In the
villages of the Gunlue County old
women are telling their sons and
husbands the need for joining the
Red Army ranks. This is an unprece-
dentsd support of the Army by the
great masses of the population in

Expansion in Human and Hupei
The Red Army units operating in
the western part of the Human and
Hupei Provinces under the leader
ship of Comrade Ho Lung are broad
ening the territory of this Soviet
region. At the present time Red
Army units have penetrated also the
Szechwan Province, the districts
south of the city of Wansian for
combined action with the Red Army
units which occupied this city.
In the western part Of
Szechwan Province the Party has
organized a series of peasant up
risings and two mutinies in Kuo-
mintang brigades. These brigades
held number of county capitals,
including Mabian, Obian and Omei,
setting up local Soviet Govern

Army division. Thus one more new

Previous to the decision of the
American Olympic Committee to

He COunsels Hezel1iah About
Assyria
During the long and beneficent
reign of the good and godly King
Hezekiah, Isaiah had his real oppor-
tunity to exert the full force of his
personality in encouraging the refor-
maory policies of this king who stands
out as second only to David in his
good influence upon the nation. When
war clouds darkened the horizon in
the menacing attitude of Sennacherib
and strong pressure was brought
upon the king to make an alliance
with Egypt, Isaiah raised his voice in
court to cry, WOE to them that go
down to Egypt for help but look
not unto the Holy One of Israel,
neither seek the Lord!' He counselled
reliance upon spiritual resources and
assured them Assyria would fall not
with the sword of men but with the
sword of the Lord.
PrOphesy Becomes History
Isaiah's prophesies became history
when Sennacherib sent his agents to
demand Jerusalem's surrender and to
mock is defenders folly in trusting
tC Isaiah's promises of divine deliv
eiance. King Hezekiah took Senna-
cherries letter into the temple and
spread it out before the Lord in pray

hath sent to defy the living Cod. In
answer to this prayer Isaiah was sent
to assure the king of Gods inerven-
ton in behalf of his people. "I will
put my nook in thy nose, and my
bride in thy lips and I will turn thee
back by the way by which thou
camest" This was Jehovah's chal-
lenge to the Assyrian Ssnnacherib as
