Begun Secretly
Rumor Is Widespread
in Berlin Workers
Districts

NEW YORK-Rumors that the
trial of Ernst Thaelmann, leader of
the Communist Party of Germany
has begun secretly are widespread in
Berlin, according to a report re-
ceiyed by the International Liberia
ton Committee in Paris, and relayed
to the National Committee to Aid
Victims Of German Fascism, in New
York.
"Since March 90" says the in
ternationaI committees represen-
tative in Berlin, there have been
persistent reports in the workers
districts of Moabit, Wedding and
NeukolIn that the trial of Ernst
ThaeImann. leader of the German
Communist Party, has already be-
gun in secret.
1T was impossible for me to verify
the truth Of this and the basis for
this widespread uneasiness. 1 OBJ
served considerable emotion among
the workers who are indignant
against the complete absence of any
legal guarantees for the anti-fascists,
and who curse the government"
Cork Telegraphs Protest
Maxim Cork, world famous Rus
sian writer, sent the following tele-
gram to the Deutsche Volkszeitung
Il consider the Imprisonment for
over year of Ernst Thaelmann,
the leader of the German workers,
as shame to Germany stop 1
hope that the representatives of
all civilization will raise their
voices in protest against the juridi-
cal crime which is being prepared"

DAILY Worker Washington Bureau)
WASHINGTON, April 20.-Secre-
tary Of Commerce Daniel Roper has
ordered the United States Shipping
Board to stop the sale of old ships
to prevent Japan from acquiring
more scrap iron to increase its ann
aments.
The Roosevelt administration it
self enlisted in the imperialist ex-
ploitation of China, is in quite a
other over Japan's recent an
nouncement that she intends to
fight to retain her Far Eastern
spoils and that she wishes to be
understood as the chief imperialist
robber of China. It is understood
here that Roosevelt is considering
negotiation with other nations to
draw up united front against
Japanese Imperialism.

Milk Price TOGOUp
| Cent a Quart on
Mon, Board Rules
Communist Party Calls
For FIGHT Against
Milk Robbery

ALBANY. April 19.-Milk price,
will rise by 1 cent quart hegin-
ming Monday. Commissioner Bald
win of the State DEPARTMENT of
Agriculture and Markets announced
today.
This rise will cost consumers more
than 100000 month.
At present the big milk monopo-
lies like Borden and Sheffield are
reaping huge profits as a result Of
the Roosevelt milk program of di-
viding the milk supply into "sur-
plus" and non-surplus categories.
"The announcement that work
inc class mothers will have t. nay
still another increase in the price
Of milk for their babies is a can't
talist crime against the working
class children in the cities COM
mitted by capitalist MIX Board
whose main function is to protect
Wall Street monopoly profits"
the New York District Ct the
Communist Party declared today,
following the announcement.
This raise will in no way solve
the problems of the thousands OF
small dairy farmers vino Pre-
ground by these milk monoDolics
just as cruelty as the consumers
are. What is needed is a deter
mined fight by a united front of
the consumers and the milk pro-
ducers against the robbery of the
richer farmers and the moncpo-
lies"
Clara Bodian of the Council Of
Working Glass Women stated that
this new rise in milk costs will meen
more hunger and disease fer thou
sands of working class children. She
issued a call to all working class
mothers as we'll as all Others inter
ested in fighting the extortionate
prices Of the milk companies to as
