NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-TWO hun
dred Italian workers stormed their
way into the Fascist headquarters
on Fourteenth street last night, tore
down the Fascist flag, and hoisted
a red banner. All of the workers
were singing the Red Flag.
The demonstration was a protest
against the brutaIities of the Mus
soini dictatorship In Italy, and es-
pecialIy against the whole-hearted
support which the American govern
ment is giving the Fascist regime.
None of the workers were arrest

Communist education spread among
the Italian workers thru the COL

The campaign of the Young

Despite the heavy rain and
cold weather yesterday, more
than 40 members of the Young
Workers League and Junior
Section were at the gates Of
Sears, Roebuck & Co. and at
Phillipsborn's selling the special
mail order house edition of the
Young Worker"
Big Demand for "Young Worker"
At Sears. Roebuck and company and
at Phillipsborn's more than 1900 cop
les of the Young Worker" were sold.
This was the first day that the paper
was put on sale.
Arrangements have been completed
whereby the paper will be sold every
morning and evening before the young
workers enter and leave the giant mail
order house.

In less than an hour, 500 copies of
the Young Worker" we're sold at
Sears, Roebuck Some OF the young
workers bought quantity of papers
so that they could give them to the
more timid workers in the shop. One
young comrade sold 200 copies Of the
paper all alone. The young girls that

Many employees questioned whether
there would be further sales Of the

against philosophic charlatanism and
always proved in action that the truth

the general factors of economic life. so
was Lenin maneuvering with the con.

JOHN SCHEDEL,
OUT ON BAIL,
Joins FAMILY
Labor Defense Council
Wins Another Fight

John SchedeI is with his wife
and family again. He has been
released from prison under a
bond of $500, raised thru the
efforts of the Labor Defense
Council, 1866 w. Washington ST.,
Chicago, which is trying to save
him from re-deportation and
Jail.
Immediately on being re-
leased, Schedel boarded a train
for Fort Wayne, Ind, where his
family has been living for years.
Happy Reunion Results.
There was a happy reunion, with
many warm embraces Of husband and
wife, and father and children-and
this time there were no heavysoled
dicks" from the department of jus
tice to break up the festivities, as
was the case in the Mailman Hotel
in Chicago, where Schedel, deported
to Germany in 1920 as a member of
the Communist Party of America, was
summarily arrested after having
made his way back to this country
so that he could be with his suffering
wife and children. He now faces re.
deportation to Germany, preceded by
a possible FIVE years in an American
prison cell.
Letters are coming into the Labor
Defense Council from all over the
country from persons interested in the
Schedel case. In Fort Wayne, petit.
tions are being circulated among the
local citizenry, calling for dismissal
OF all charges against Schedel. More
over. number Of influential people
have interested themselves in the
case, among them Clarence barrow,
Roger Baldwin of the American Civil
Liberties Union, and James H. McGill
of Indiana. Perhaps this will be the
starting point for mighty campaign
to put an end, once and for all, to
political deportations in America.
Gets Job Back.
From now until the final disposition
of his case, Comrade Schedel is going
to work to support his family, which
had such hard time Of 1t while he
was away.
He is a piano polisher by trade and
his former employer in Fort Wayne
has offered to take him back. Friends
in Chicago have also volunteered to
secure work for him in case he prefers
to remain here.

Big BIZ BACKS
NC ANDREW WAR
in The SCHOOLS
Board Backs DOwn in
Fight for Teachers

Chicago's big business board
OF education has at last definite
ly decided to stand one hundred
per cent behind Superintendent
McAndfeW in his fight on the
militant teachers Of Chicago's
schools.
At the regular meeting of the
board yesterday afternoon, Nc
Andrews request that principals
have full authority to call meet
ings of the teachers councils
was granted.
Board Yields Last Inch.
In taking this action, the school
board has yielded the last inch in such
fight as few of its members have
been disposed to make in behalf of
the teachers and the councils in which
they have for years found an oppor-
tunity to express their ideas.
At first refusing to coerce the SUI
perintendent to comply with the ac-
cepted rules of the board and to call
the councils together, they next pro-
ceeded to allow him to change the
rules in such way that the councils
were completely abolished unless he
should see fit to resurrect them. And
now it has placed in his hands the
right to make few men and women
the controlling factors in these coun-
ellis.
Supt. is Lackey Of Bankers.
In this way, in the short space of a
few months, the councils from being
instruments of the rank and file teach
ers, have become instruments of the
superintendent of schools, who is ad-
mittedly the lackey of tha bankers
and brokers on the school board.
The promises held out to working
class mothers and fathers, and to the
teachers interested in the children
of these parents, that elaborate plans
are under consideration for the con-
struction of new buildings in which to
house the large number of students
who are now accommodated only by
crowding, have no basis in any action
taken by the board so far
The matter of building was quietly
ignored by the board, and trustees
indicated that the matter will prob
ably continue to be ignored.
ModerweIl to Resign.
There is little hope that the resig-
nation Of Charles M. Moderwell, pres
ident of the board, will bring bright
er outlook for the teachers.
Moderwell, who has consistently op-
posed measures advocated by teachers
has found it advisable to quit--prob-
ably In order to keep a firmer grip on
his non-union coal mines in West vir-
ginia. But any hopes that may have
raised that Mayor Dever--to whom
Margaret Haley of the Teachers Fed
GRAFTON has looked long and vainly for
help-will take this opportunity to APP
point trustee favorable to the teach
ers, has been shattered by Dever's 're-
grets" at Moderwells resignation.
