ONE of the mysteries of life is
~ how much care a man will take
of thoroughbred animals - noting
when they are "off" -. and toning
them back to the pink of condition"
to increase their daily usefulness
yet will shamefully neglect. his own
rundown condition.
Certainly, there is a pardonable
pride in an animals healthy apr ear
ance but human beings are more
important than animals. Yet some
people just hope when rundown"
that they will "come around"
1t is Just good "horse-sense" to re-
feet and reason that your so-called
sired feeling" may come from a
lowered red-blood-cell count and the
hemo-glo-bin in these cells.
There is remedy specially de-
signed to bring back strength to
weakened blood and no one can be
strong, healthy, happy, and full of
vitality when in a rundown condition.
SIS. Blood Tonic is time-tested
remedy for restoring deficient red

InFrance
Socialist and Communist
Workers Unite in
Many Cities

PARIS, Aug. LIN all the large
towns, provincial centers and viii
lagos, mass demonstrations are be-
ing held by the united Communist
and Socialist Parties, collaborating
with the Anti-War Committees and
the other revolutionary organiza-
tions.
The magnificent demonstration Of
$4,000 in the Pantheon Square in
Paris is being followed up by prep
arations for renewed demonstra-
tons. All the bourgeois papers have
been obliged to admit the excellent
discipline and striking nilitancy OF
the Pantheon demonstration, and
to admit that the ruling slogan was
that of "Soviets everywhere"
The Congress of United Action in
st. Etienne, attended by 81 dele
gates representing 10000 workers
again bore witness to the rapid
progress of the united front. The
congress was opened by meeting
taken part in by 1000 workers. The
speakers were Lagorgette for the
c. c. of the S. P; Dolmazon for
the Committee Against War and
Fascism, and Camille Drevet for the
Intellectuals Defense Committee.
Numerous reformist and all unitary
trade unions of the district were
represented. The congress elected
Committee of United Action, con-
sisting of 30 persons. This commit
tee will now lead the anti-fascist
struggle and the anti-war cam
paign. in collaboration with the So
cialist and Communist Parties and
the other organizations.
The small holders and agricul-
tural workers are also being enlisted
for united action. On July 20 a
demonstration was organized in
Sauze by the Anti-War Committee
and the revolutionary small hold
ers' organizations and was attended
by 400 small holders and agricul-
tural laborers. The Socialist local
group also took part
At Homecourt-Jauf (near Nancy,
a demonstration was carried out by
1880 workers. This town has been
under the sway of the heavy indus
trial committee (conite DIES forges)
for years, and it is the first time
since 1919 that it has seen such a
workers demonstration. The speak
ers were the e-president of the
League for Human Rights, the sec
rotary of the Socialist Party, Midon,
the district secretary of the Com
munist Party, Uni, and others.
In Grasse 700 workers took part
in United Action meeting, adj
dressed by representatives of the
Communist and Socialist Parties,
Nonmousseau for the Red Trade
Union Federation, and the secre-
tary of the reformist trade union
cartel of the town. An anti-fascist
committee was founded.

and Wage Cuts

GOVERNOR Lehman has just signed the
u Ives Bill requiring an oath of allegiance
from all school teachers in support of the
existing State and Federal constitutions.
There is a quite material reason for
this sudden interest in patriotism" on
the part of the New York officials
The reason is to be found in the fact that
another slash in school appropriations is in the
offing More wage cuts for teachers, further "re-
trenchment" in educational expenditures for night
schools, laboratories Fairgrounds, and intensified
speed-up in larger classes-these are the develop
ments behind the Ives Bill.
Now the educational authorities can easily raise
the old, stale cry of patriotism" against any
teacher who is bold and courageous enough to
stand out against the Wall Street-LaGuardia-
Lehman program of choking the school system to
protect bank investments.
Any honest teacher who now raises her voice
against educational retrenchment will be immedi-
ately bludgeoned with the Ives Bill.
For this reason, it is now more necessary than
ever for teachers and parents to join forces in
militant action against any and every move of
the authorities to reduce educational facilities

Base For FaSciSrn

Ii the Roosevelt economic measures
II have failed to halt the ravages of the
crisis.
And the growing hunger of the masses
is resulting in class battles whose mill
fancy and scope surpass anything seen in
the history of the country
In this situation, Roosevelt is clearly moving
to ever greater campaigns of terrorism and bait
ing against the Communist Party.
Roosevelt knows that the leadership of the
American working class in its struggles for bread,
for union conditions and against the yoke of Wall
Street will be in the hands of the Communist
Party the revolutionary party of the proletariat.
For this reason, he and his agents have al
ready launched an organized, persistent, steadily
advancing campaign of ed-baitng" which is pene-
trating into every section of the country through
the immense agencies of capitalist propaganda, the
movies, the press the pulpit and the radio
THE latest evidence of this organized, growing
campaign against the Communist Party is the
announcement that the leader of the Elks, bene-
VIOLENT fraternal organization, calls for a drive
against the Reds"
The officers of the Elks are, no doubt getting
their orders from more official sources.
This announcement is the sign that the anti
Communist campaign is no longer confined only
to the open brutality of the violence
on the Pacific Coast and Minneapolis. 1t reveals
that the poison of organized anti Communist in
element is penetrating the broad mass organiza-
lions of the middle class and small businessman
and worker.
This anti Communist campaign is a menace
not only to the working class and its revolutionary
party but to the vast numbers of petty-bourgeois
poles in the crisis.
THE organized penetration of anti-Communist
poison into the fraternal organizations is
signal of the official organization of a mass base
for American Fascism The Wall Street monop-
olies and big capitalists are attempting to use
their petty bourgeois victims as tools against the
only force that end the rule of Wall Street
the Communist Party leading the toiling masses.
There must be the greatest energy in splking
this anti-C Communist poison. In the fraternal or
CARNATIONS there thousands of workers and
small businessmen. 1t is up to them to oppose
the Wall Street poison of anti Communist in
element which is aimed at them as well as the
Communists
The biggest capitalist monopolies exploit the
working class But in conditions of advancing
non monopoly producer as we'll The interests OF
the petty-bourgeois, crushed by Wall Street. can
only be to follow the leadership of the working
class and its party the Communist Party, against
big capital.
