The Pullman strike is to be re-
viewed before a mass meeting in
Stancik's Hall, EOS East 115th street,
Pullman. on Tuesday, May goth, at
p. I'M, under the auspices of the Work
ers Party. The struggle Of the ex-

against their dictatorial bosses is not
to be allowed to die with the conclud-
ing Of the last strike.
J. Louis Engdahl, editor of the
DAILY WORKER, and Jack Nc.
Carthy, circulation manager Of the
paper, and Manuel Gomez, well-known
speaker Of the Labor Defense Coun-
Gil staff, will bring clearly before the
workers of Pullman and their families
the issues of the late strike and show
how that fight merely pointed the
way to future action.

Speakers in Polish and South Sla-

lords of the country and of their par

the strike will be explained and the
reasons for the workers inability to
make a more effective showing
against the powerful Pullman com
pany.
1t will be shown that the workers
fight in this small field indicates the
need for greater class consciousness
and for a mass class organization to
gain political power for the workers

Orchestra Hall. Long before the doors
opened many people gathered for the
show and within fifteen minutes time
all seats were taken for the first show.
Not the least feature Of the program
was the musical accompaniment, play.
ed on the great organ by one of the
leading professional motion-picture or
ganists Of the city. "The Internation-

tunes roared thru the great house
and not a pipe cracked. The audience
was tremendously responsive and all
thru the picture there were punctua-
tions Of applause and laughter.
Some In Wrong Church
There was in attendance a very
small contingent Of German Fascist
sympathizers who started to applaud
when a steel-helmetted apostle Of
democracy" stood guard over the
crushed labor government of Saxony.
A roar of whistles and cat-calls left
no room for doubt as to the sym
pathies Of the great mass in attend
ance.
In showing the international labor
response to the German workers APP
peal for help the applause was unini-
nous, especially when the Interna-

have in attendance delegates from
