Roosevelt Moves To
Help Standard Oil
in Bolivia

WASHINGTON. May 23.-T h e
House of Representatives today
adopted the Roosevelt tricky arms
embargo resolution" to be used as
weapon against the shipment of
arms to Paraguay, the puppet Of
British imperialism, and, in order
to favor Bolivia, Wall Streets tool
in the Chaco war.
The speed with which the resolu-
ton was pushed is due to the in
tensified attack of the Paraguayan
army on the Ballivian and Canada
areas, held by Bolivia, and the de-
fensive bulwark of huge oil lands
owned by the Standard Oil Co.
The New York Times correspon-
dent yesterday crassly admits facts
which appeared some time ago ex-
clusively in the Daily Worker about
the real forces in the Chaco war.
1T was considered probable" said
the Times Washington correspon-
dent, that the haste displayed in
the past few days by the admins
tration has been due to the expecta-
ton of Paraguayan victory in the
extensive fighting around Fort Bal
livian and Fort Canada. This, in
the opinion of experts here, would
open the road to Paraguayan
troops to the oil fields and refinery
of the Standard Oil Company Of
Bolivia"
Heretofore the mention of the
Standard Oil Co. of the United
States, with its Bolivian subsidiary,
has been tabu in the news.
At the same time, despite the
signing of a treaty between Colon
bia and Peru over the disputed Lett
cha border. Colombian troops are on
their way to Leticis, as if in prep
sration for a new Latin American
war. American imperialism has
been supplying Colombia with arms
and ammunition.

He seized it from a worker in order to

And Immediately after this sensational piece Of

Fascist Meet Ends
In Disorder When
1000 Demonstrate
Newark Anti W ar Group
Calls Parade for Next
Saturday, 4 P. NJ.

IRVINGTON, N. j., May 49,
Five uniformed Nazis from New
York we're held in $1,000 bail for
trial Friday night, after they had
been arrested at a rally held here
Monday evening.
Three others, anti-fascists, are be-
ing held on disorderly conduct
charges.
During the hearing in Newark
Tuesday a large crowd Of anti-fas-
cists demonstrated in front of the
court room demanding the convic-
ton of the Nazis. Police escorted
two Nazis to the Hudson County
line after the trial from where other
police escorted them safely to New
York. Early Tuesday the police had
performed the same service for As
Nazis who had remained in Newark
police station for safety.
The meeting of 400 Nazis, so of
them in uniform, broke up Monday
night in disorder as police from this
city and Newark attacked about
1000 Workers gathered outside their
hall in counter demonstration.
The Nazis met under the name Of
Friends of New Germany" in a hall
owned by DR.. John F. Lovells, who
was Mayor of Irvington until the
last election.
Police threw tear gas bombs and
swung clubs as they tried again and
again to drive the crowd back from
the doors of the hall. 1t was a
spontaneous demonstration and a
militant one. One worker was
knocked out in the middle of the
street and lay PROSTATE with blood
streaming from a large cut in his
head. Police refused to call an am
bulance for him.
Seeing that the Nazis would not
be allowed to leave peaceably, police
brought patrol wagons and ambu-
lances up to the door and in loads
of eight at q time, transported the

Afghan Minister
Lies About Arrests

NEW YORK-The Anti Imperial
ist League of the U. S. has just
learned that the Afghan Govern
ment, tool of British imperialism,
is attempting to deny in the most
brazen manner the facts concern
ing the arrest and torture in Jail of
Gurmuk Singh and his companion
The League Against Imperialism
in London recently protested to the
Afghan Minister to Great Britain
calling his attention to the brutal
torture inflicted upon these two
fighters in the national liberation
movement in India. The Afghan
Minister, without offering the slight
est proof, denied the facts, claiming
that Gurmuk Singh and his COM
panion were released nearly year
ago The two Indians we're arrested
on August 7, 1888. On October Is,
Gurmuk Singh went on a hunger
strike. In the face of these facts
the reply of the Afghan Minister is
obviously a lie, intended to stop the
mass pressure which has developed
around the case.
Gables demanding the release of
Gurmuk Singh have been sent by
a number of organizations here in
GLIDING the Anti-Imperialist League,
the I. L. D., the Trade Union Unity
Council, the Steel and Metal Work
ers Industrial Union, the I. w. O.,
the United Council of Working
Glass Women and the League of
Struggle for Negro Rights. AL other
organizations are urged to send pro-
test cables at once to King Nadir
Khan, Kabul, Post Peshawar, At
ghanistan.

JUST in contrast to the dry rot
y Of the Nazi press, which has
wiped out between six and eight
hundred individual publications,
we want to record that on the
goth Press Day in the Soviet
Union, May 5, there were 1854
newspapers with a total circula-
ton of 100000. Despite this
tremendous circulation, as com-
pared to only $50 newspapers with
a circulation of 100000 in Car
ist days, there is still a severe
shortage.
