‘Text Of Radio Speeches

Below is given the main text
of Harold Griffin’s broadcast on
the Japanese boycott vetoed this
week by CJOR.

In the Japanese boycott is a
means whereby each one of us can
materially assist in breaking down
the giant, ruthless, but nevertheless
imperfect military machine of Jap-
anese imperialism which at this
very Moment is carrying death deep
into the heart of China.

While the Fascist countries—Ger-

many, Italy and their smaller
satellites —throw their well-timed
monkey wrenches into cumbersome
diplomatic machinery in order to
gain time for Japan, millions of
peace-loving, democratic people the
world over are striking at Japan’s
yulnerable economic base.

States, Britain, France, Mexico,
Australia and a score of other
countries a widespread boycott has
been declared. There is no
doubt that this boycott is already
having its effect on Japan’s pre-
carious war €conomy. Japanese ex-
ports show a rapid decline, while
Japanese gold shipments to New
York and London are flowing out-
Ward at a rate which must soon
deplete Japan's slender resources.
Since March of this year Japan
has exported $190,800,000 in gold to
provide credits for her purchase of
war materials abroad.

@

The argument has been ad-
vanced by those opposed to the
boycott that economic action of
this kind not only works hardship
on the masses of Japanese indus-
trial workers and farmers, but
also imperils the peace of those
countries imposing the boycott
or embargo. Such an argument
can only be calculated to assist
the mining magnates, the muni-
tions manufacturers and the
financiers who, in Canada as
elsewhere, are reaping a golden
harvest from the steel-torn plains
and ruined cities of China.

Japanese people are by no means
as united behind this war of im-
perialist invasion as the Japanese
propagandists would have us be-
lieve.

George M. Murray, well known
Vancouver journalist and Liberal
MLA for Lillooet, who returned re-
cently from the Orient, writes in
the Vancouver Sun: “Japanese
public opinion is not united on this
war. The older businessmen, the
bankers and the farmers are not
wildly enthusiastic. Their influence
has been overcome by the army
and navy eliques. The war must
gO an and anyone who entertains
other ideas would be guilty of
‘dangerous thoughts’ and might
find himself in a difficult position.”

The Daily Clarion, Toronto labor-
progressive daily, also exposes this
argument as being fallacious. A
recent editorial states: “The argu-
ment has been advanced by some
good friends of the Chinese people
that a boycott of imports from
Japan will hurt the Japanese work-
ers and farmers. We think this
argument is based on a misunder-
standing. It fails to take into ac-
count the salient facts that the vast

majority of underpaid and poverty-
stricken workers and peasants of
Japan are not in sympathy with
the Tanaka plan of steady aggres-
sion which has been militantly pur-
sued since 1931 by the military-
imperialistic-feudal clique at the
present time ruling Japan.

“Despite the fierce suppression of
dangerous thoughts (read progres-
sive opinion) by the Japanese
satraps, a strong anti-imperialist
movement exists among the Japan-
ese people. One has only to re-
member the great popularity of the
anti-militarist groups in the last
Japanese election, not to speak of
the anti-militarist opinions which
are current in even liberal-capitalist
sections of Japanese society, to
recognize the fallacy of believing
that the present ruling clique in
Japan has the whole of the Japan-
ese people behind it. That this
anti-imperialist feeling is present in
the conscript Japanese army is also
proyen by the stories of mutiny in
the Japanese forces in China.

“The main purpose of the export
of the products of sweated Japan-
ese labor is to pile up foreign
credits for the purpose of those war
materials which Japan does not
produce —iron and steel, copper,
zine, nickel and the rest. These
eredits are not used for the import
of needed foodstuffs for the stary-

boycott or ill-feeling as between the
Japanese and Chinese.’

Ewen objected to this announce
ment as implying that the Commu-
mist party wished to arouse racial
antagonism between Japanese and
Chinese, whereas the whole tenor
of the speech showed clearly that
the ruling militarist clique in Japan
and not the Japanese people was
responsible for continued aggres-
Sion in China.
* He pointed out that A. M. Stephen,
provincial president of the Canadian
League for Peace and Democracy,
had made a similar speech on the
League's regular Monday evening
broadcast without objection being
raised, but CJOR officials were ada-
mant. They reserved the right to
veto speeches they considered detri-
mental to themselves of their cli-
ents. The speech could not be broad-
cast. Finally they submitted the
following announcement:

“In view of the material submit-
ted by the Communist party of Can-
ada dealing with a controversial
question we find it impossible to
allow this speech to be broadcast
without the approval of the authori-
ties at Ottawa.”

Even this announcement left the
impression that the speech was
vetoed under regulations of the Ca-
nadian Broadcasting Corporation,
whereas actually the speech was
cancelled on the station’s own clause
in its contract with the Gommunist
party.

address over CJOR and Stephen's
address over CK:MO, with only those

ing peasantry and workers. Thus,
Japan pays for Canadian nickel by
the sale of toys, silk and rayon
goods and light bulbs here.

“Boycott of these Japanese

goods here will above all increase
the difficulties of the imperialist
brigands in China. It will also
be an act of solidarity to the Jap-
anese peace-loving people in so
far as anything which will hasten
the defeat of the Japanese war
party will assist the Japanese
people in -establishing a demo-
cratic regime.”

It is quite true that the Japan-
ese imperialists are threatening to
take retaliatory measures against
those countries which apply em-
bargoes, but a consideration of this
threat also raises the question as
to how a country deprived by boy-
cott and embargo of the necessities
of warfare can launch into an ex-
tension of this warfare .

e@

Here in British Columbia we are
vitally concerned with the Japanese
invasion of China. We have a
Jarge trade with both Japan and
China and there is no doubt that,
insofar as our trade with China is
concerned, the vast market await-
ing exploitation in that country—a
phrase so often used by some of our
politicians—will be closed should
Japan succeed in conquering China.

Qn the other hand, during the
first seven months of this year
British Columbia shipped to Japan
32,000,000 in gold and vast quanti-
ties of wheat, beef, pulp, including
rayon pulp, print paper iron ore,
aluminum slabs, lead, copper, zinc,
Machinery and timber. Most of
these went to fill Japan’s insatiable
military requirements.

As pointed out in the Communist
party’s civic home building and
slum clearance program for Van-
couver, which proposes a fifteen per
cent provincial tax on all logs ex-
ported by foreign interests, the pro-
vincial government has leased large
tracts of BC timber limits to Japa-
nese interests who log off the land
and ship the logs to Japan for con-
version into lumber.

Wot only this, but Japanese inter-
ests have purchased valuable min-
eral deposits in the Queen Charlotte
Islands and elsewhere in this prov-
ince, products of which will go to
making of Japanese munitions. Ga-
nadian minerals are being shipped
in ever-increasing quantities to
Japan, despite the united protests
of church people, women’s and
youth organizations, ex-servicemen,
liberals, CCE’ers, Communists, farm
and other organizations.

International Nickel is reaping
tremendous profits from the Japa-
nese invasion of China and even the
smaller nickel producers are con-
tributing to Japan’s war needs. Last
month three carloads of concen-
trates were shipped from British

Urge Boycott in Bevadeects

Followime is that part of A. M.
Stephen’s broadcast over CKMO
this week in which he refers to
the Japanese boycott.

The major topic of conversation
during the past weelx has been the
Japanese boycott. ... May I say
that we intend to continue to ad-
vise the citizens of Vancouver not
to buy Japanese goods?

The fact that letters in the press,
letters to us, and communications
from fascist organizations keep
Warning us to stop this campaign
only makes us more certain that
it is an effective method of taking
the bullzt out of the Japanese gun.
If have received threatening letters,
signed by people hiding under a
pen-name threatening me with per-
sonal loss and injury if I do not
cease interfering with the march of
fascism, and specifically demanding
that the anti-Japanese campaign
be ended forthwith.

it is interesting to know that
fascism has so many friends in
Vancouver and that the war-
mongers and profiteers are begin-
ning to feel the force of democratic
opinion and the pressure of the
forces of peace. And the forces of
peace are gathering and are deter-
mined and strong. _. .

@

Hiow can there be any doubts in
your minds in regard to these fasc-
ist invasions of Spain and Ghina?
How can you put profits and money
before human life and then dare to
face your children, whom you have
sold into the shambles of war
when you placed a dollar before
the value of a human life?

Those who oppose the campaign
to stop Japan by refusing to buy.
her exports without which she
cannot buy tanks and planes and
bombs have to face the question.
5 - Is a human life less to you
than the money which is being
made by profiteers who buy and
sell regardless of the torture of
mothers and the cry of mangled
and bleeding children? Do you
want freedom or slavery?

When dealing with Japanese fasc-
ism one is dealing with an evil
and ruthless monster, as indeed
fascism in any country has proved
to be. How can it be otherwise,
Since fascism is the
power of capitalist greed, inhu-
man, mechanical, cold and sinister.

Let us remember in our economic
campaign to stop the Japanese war
machine that we must not forget
that this war is forced upon the
Japanese people and that they, as
individuals, are not to blame for
the frightfulness of their fascist
leaders. By defeating the Japanese
generals we shall also liberate the
Japanese people. And, remember
too, that Japan’s very frightfulness
is a proof of her weakness.

Exercise your right io refuse io
buy Japanese goods and keep on
demanding economic pressure. You
can make this demand so. stronz
that the governments cr the West-
ern democracies will not dare dis-
regard it.

Rate For Jobless Girls
Raised From $13 to $15
Monthly Still Far From
Adequate

Raising of relief allowance to
Single unemployed women in the
city from $13.20 to $15 a month,
the rate given single unemployed
men, was decided Monday by city
social services committee.

Snorted Alderman John Bennett,
when he heard the rate being paid
these single men and women:

“A most inadequate amount.
Fifty cents a day to pay room rent,
washing, food and other things!”

“Why the provincial government
charges the city $1 a day for pris-
oners at OQakalla,” he exclaimed.

Satisfied that their insistent cam-
paign is beginning to get results,
the Domestic Workers’ Union,
which has championed the case of
Single unemployed women, stated
to the PA this week that there was
entire agreement with the remarks
of Alderman Bennett as to the
amount of the allowance.

“Queer though that the alderman
has just awakened to the plight of
the unemployed, after being on the
council for so many years,” de-
clared one union official.

.)

According to my information,
there are five big canneries in BC
which last year are reported to have
used between five and seven thou-
sand cases of Japanese oranges in
the manufacture of marmalade.
These oranges are mixed with
others. This year Canadian Can-
neries, which had contemplated pur-
chasing 3,000 cases of Japanese
oranges, stated when approached
that, in view of the boycott, pur-
chase of Seville oranges instead
will be considered. Other canneries,
notably the Empress Manufactur-
ing company, Facific Coast Pack-
ing company, Broder Canneries and
Berryland Fruit Farms at Haney,
BG, are also reported to be recon-
sidering possible purchases of Japa-
nese oranges.

Only vigilance on the part of the
consuming public can ensure that
Japanese goods will not find a mar-
ket in British Columbia. Remember
particularly, that silk, cotton goods,
chinaware and earthenware, tea,
cheap toys and light bulbs are ex-
ported in Japan in large quantities.
Only continued protests by organi-
zations opposed to Japanese aggres-
sion in China can bring pressure to
bear on the federal government suf-
fiicent to ensure declaration of an
embargo. Such an embargo, which
would deprive Japan of the essen-

tials she needs to maintain her mili-
tary machine, would bring a quick
termination to the war.
)

In conclusion, let me remind my
listeners that Japan is conducting
an intensive propaganda campaign
in this province. Hirokichi Nemichi,

SSS SS

SSSSSSSSSSS SS SS SSS

Union’s Achievements

Japanese consul at Vancouver, is
making press statements and pub-
lic addresses to the effect that the
Nanking government is deceiving
the Chinese people and that Japan’s
only mission in China is ‘‘to save all
of the Hast, including India, from
the Communism which is creeping
in from the north and endangering
all of the Far East.”

Like Hitler and Mussolini in
their undeclared war against the
democratic government of Spain,
Japan in her unwarranted, ruth-
less invasion of China can think
of no better excuse for conquest
than that she is saving the world
from communism. And, like Hit-
ler and Mussolini again, Japan’s
imperialists will determine what
is and what is not communism.
In other words, all those who op-
pose Japan’s plans for conquest—
and the Chinese people are united
in their opposition as never before
—are to be branded as com-
munists.

Here is the fascist dream of world
conquest in reality, in all its stark
horror. One by one, unless they act
now to combat the menace of fas-
cism, the world’s democracies will
be assailed and we can best at this
moment play our part by giving all
support to a boycott which, if
conscientiously placed in effect by
each one of us, will bring an end to
Japanese aggression in China and
act as a determining factor in the
world-wide struggle between the
forces of fascism on the one hand
and those of democracy on the

other.
