An illegal little sheet ten inches in height, beautifully printed in small type, ?Hu- manité is read by 100,000 to 150,000 workers daily on the average.

Sun Letter Exposed Purported to be from one who ‘helped to form a bunch of Stalin- ites’ in British Columbia, a letter over the signature of D. McKinnon, 235 East Hastings Street, carried by the Vancouver Sun last Satur- day, called for ousting of “all Stal- in’s friends.” The writer claimed to have been @ member jin 1938, of Earl Brow- der’s club in the United States, and asserted he was sent to the Soviet Union in that year. Investigation by the Advocate at the address given, 235 East Has- tings Street, revealed that no per- son of that name was living there, and never has. Further enquiries also brought out the fact that no Such person has ever been con- nected with or helped to organize any group in this province which Might be labelled ‘Stalinist’ even by Trotsky himself. Further, if further proof to brand this letter as phony were needed, the mythical McKinnon, supposed to have been in the USSR during 1938, referred in the letter to a boy getting herrings ‘on a card.’ Ration cards were abolished in the Soviet Union on January 1, 1935. g To Aid Camp Employees and management of Hastings Bakery, staunch support- ers of the Jubilee Children’s Sum- mer Camp for underprivileged children, are sponsoring a banquet, concert and dance in Hastings Au- ditorium on Saturday, March 2, at 8 p.m. PURE FOOD storia, Nanaimo, Prince Rupert, New Westminster, Kamloops, Vernon, Penticton Kelly Douglas Co.

P. Mor- fan and his nickel interests in Finland, the paper continued. Pravda recalled Lenin’s views on foreign policy in relation to cur- rent international developments. Pravda said that Karl Marx and Friedrick Engels always consider- ed one of the main tasks of the working class to be mastery of the secrets of international politics. “From the very outset of his struggle for the victory of social- ism,” the article said, “Lenin, like Marx, displayed tremendous inter est in foreign policy of the capital- ist states, “Lenin’s numerous works show with what profundity he studied and analyzed foreign policy and the diplomacy of imperialist states, Already, Lenin had worked out the problems of foreign policy of the socialist state, the problem of the co-existence of two worlds at a definite stage of hstorical devel- opment, “Lenin foresaw that inter-re- lations between the two worlds would inevitably assume most varied forms — from peaceful co-existence to armed struggle in its most acute form. The the- ory and practice of socialist rey- olution have shown that the peaceful character of the foreign policy of the Soviet state is no abstract concept, but a political principle profoundly and con- sistently operated. “It is in the Bolshevik purity of the principles of its foreign policy that the Soviet state draws its mor- al strength, while the support of many millions of people through- out the world gives these principles unparalleled majesty, “The principles of tne peace pol- icy of ‘the Soviet state, expressed Particularly in respect for the state independence of small countries, also exerted great influence on the position of these countries, espe- cially the Baltic countries, “Lenin attached treat signifi- cance to the relations between the Soviet state and Finland, which British imperialism strove, as it is Striving today, to use as a base against the land of socialism. It is characteristic that certain organs of the capitalist press, in particular the press serving the interests of Morgan and company in Finland’s nickel industry, descend to partic- ularly brazen attacks on the mu- tual assistance pact between the USSR and the people’s government of Finland. “In the spring of 1918, Lenin had already raised the question of the defense of approaches to the Sov- jet Union. The question of Fin- land’s position was of all the great- er significance, in that at that time the Anglo-French imperialists were already striving to extend their war-base both for struggle against the Soviet state and for struggle against Germany. ‘They thereafter had their eyes on the Murmansk region so as—as Lenin noted—‘to secure their mili- tary rear in their imperialist war USSR Policy Based Principles MOSCOW.—Soviet foreign policy today is based on the pro- gram outlined by V.L Lenin, founder of the socialist state, the Soviet Communist party newspaper, Pravda said last week in editorial marking the 16th anniversary of Lenin’s death. Pravda stated that Lenin outlined the policy which helped the young Soviet power crush foreign intervention in 1918-1923 © Pravda Hits Laborites MOSCOW, USSR. — Arrival in Helsinki today of Sir Walter Cit- rine, head of British labor unions, was branded a trick of the Brit- ish government to whitewash Gen- eral Mannerheim in the eyes of the British working class, the So- viet newspaper Prayda declared. “In the League of Nations,” says Pravda, “Britain pledged to assist Finland according to its PoOssibili- ties. In fulfilment of this pledge, it sends to Finland together with its other wares, representatives of the Labor party. The Laborites’ visit to Finland is one of the tricks concocted in the government of- fices. “The Laborites go to Finland with the aim of absolvying and em- bellishing General Mannerheim. They would like to present the Finnish proletariat and their hang- men as one and the same. A hope- less task! ; “No matter how much white- wash the envoys of the British bourgeoisie take with them, they will be unable to paint a black horse white. The Laborites’ visit to Finland is also a new method in the struggle with anti-war senti_ ment in the ranks of the British working class. This sentiment is increasing and Strengthening. It causes the government no little concern. ALL NOT WELL. “Upon their return from Finland, the Laborites will excite nationalist Passion and will add fresh oil to the anti-Soviet fire. There Is no faith felt in the correspondents who have gone the limit in fabri- cating lies. The British govern- ment will present ‘eye witnesses.’ “But the necessity for Sending travelling salesmen of imperialism to various countries to persuade the workers, to dupe them with high-faluting phrases and trumped up scenes, is evidence that all is not well in the camp of the bour- Beoisie, “The Laborites are repeating the old method which has already fail- ed once before. The merchants of War and death carry samples of British made fabrications for sale abroad, But General Mannerheim himself has an unlimited supply of this product. But the Finnish People cannot be deceived by this. The British working class also knows the value of such wares.” against Germany. ‘Today the peace policy of the USSE is being conducted in new historical conditions, in condi- tions when the capitalist world has become involved in a new imperialist war along the path outlined by Lenin” Pravda published in the same edition numerous reminiscences of meetings with Lenin and reported public meetings devoted to his memory held last week. oa ee r Hearing SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.— Charges that a woman member of the jury which convicted Earl King, Ernest Ramsay and Frank Conner, Marine Fire- men’s Union leaders, lied when she swore that she had no close relations with an assistant pros- ecutor, were made in the ap- plication for pardon of the three unionists. Shortly after the trial, which in_ volved the murder on board the freighter Point Lobos of George Al- berts, chief engineer, attorneys for the three moved for a retrial and charged that Juror Julia Vickerson had ‘close business relations’ with Assistant District Attorney Charles Weir. Both Weir and Miss Vickerson swore they had met only casually, When she came to Weir's office merely to accompany a friend, As the defense attorneys pre- pared today to back up the final pardon plea which goes before the state board of terms and paroles when the men come before it for sentence soon, it was discovered that Alameda county public rec- ords contain material bearing on the Weir-Vickerson relations. These records show that Weir, who died two nionths ago, has a claim against his estate by Julia Vickerson. The former King-Ramsey-Con- ner juror claims that she loaned Weir $600 without security several years ago. She followed up this by loaning him $12,000 without security, dur- | ing 1937 and 1938: DAMAGES STORY. She now wants this money back. She makes the admissions, damag- ing her former story, Weir's for- mer story, and the reputation of the then District Attorney Earl Warren, now state attorney-gener- al. Warren then took personal supervision over the case and it is alleged allowed the jury scandal to develop in his presence. Wing, Ramsey and Conner were never at the scene of the murder, the defense has always held, but were framed as part of the or- ganized ship owners’ campaign to smash the union. They came into recent additional promin- ence by testifying in the Bridges deportation case. They were of- fered freedom if they would make false affidavits that Bridges was a Communist, Pan-American Setup, NMU Aim NEW YORK, NY. — The Nation- al Maritime union announced last week that it was preparing to take the initiative in seeking establish- ment of a provisional committee for Pan-American relations amone Marine unions in the United States, purpose of which will be to carry on preliminary organiza- tional work for creation within the next year of a Pan-American Mari- time Federation. Such a federation, it is expected, would eventually embrace all sea- men, inland boatmen and harbor workers in North, Central and South America, Cuba and Porto Rico. Army Of Czarists Advocated Wealthy Debutante, US Industrialists Aid White Finland NEW YORK. x-President Hoover's drive to help Finnish ‘democracy’ this week had the support of such ‘democracy lovers’ as an ex-cossack colonel, heiress Brenda Frazier, and Thomas J. Watson, Internation- al Business Machines Corpor- ation president, who in 1938 ranked as the second highest salaried man in the United States. Most embarrassing to Hoover's ‘democracy’ crusage was the cali for formation of a White Russian army of Czarists to fight with Mannerheim’s White Guards, Included in the recruiters for the Czarist army are Colonel P. V. Kartashoy, formerly of the Terek Cossack Army; Boris Ser- aviator, and Archbishop Vitaly of the Russian Orthodox Church in New York. Call for the White Russian army came at a meeting here of Finnish and Russian White Guards, chair- Manned by the rich plane manu- facturer, Igor Sikorsky. Captain Sergievsky said somber- ly; “We should organize a Russian division, maybe a corps, to fight as an ally of Finland. For twenty-two years we have been waiting for this very moment. Now there is a Place where we can go back and fight from.’ it was later announced from the floor that many Czarists had al- ready left the US to fight for Fin- land against the Soviets. MOTIVE REVEALED. Watson’s Part in the Hoover campaign is an active leader of the Big Business campaign to raise money for Mannerheim while mil- lionairess Brenda Frazier is on the committee for a ‘Help Finland Cabaret.’ Watson, announced as one of 2 score of leading industrialists who have pledged to raise 51,000,- 000 for White Finland, last week declared he was doing his part “in a cause that is so vital to all industry—the defeat of commun- ism.” Last week also, Lillian Hellman, author of The Little Foxes, current Broadway show, supporting the re- fusal of Producer Herman Shumlin to stage a Finnish relief benefit, declared she had Supported aid to Loyalist Spain because she believed a Republican victory there would forestall a European war. “But,” said she, “war has now come, bringing with it inflammable Sympathies in this country. There must be no competitions in the Dame of charity. But I would like to make sure our charitable aid does not mask a pre-war move- ment in the United States.” Repeal the War Measures Act loht On DON'T SPECULATE! Get the Facts in by D. N.
