June IL Convention
Talk Of the Town
In Baltimore Unions
BY A. JAKIRA.
Especial to The Daily Workerl


BALTIMORE, Md, May 27.-There
is hardly another city in the United
States where the issue Of June 18th
Convention has created as much in
terest as in Baltimore. The local
Farmer-Labor Party, which due to
some legal technicalities, is COM
PEELED to call itself the Peoples
Party, has for the last several months
rooted itself deeply into the local
labor movement. The Peoples Party
has endorsed the June 18th Conyen-
ton and is sending a delegate.
Several local unions have also acted
favorably on the call for the June
nth Convention and some Of them
will send delegates.
The machinists of this city en-
dorsed the st. Paul Convention
despite of the fact that President
tombstone, of the Machinists' Union,
has sent in a written request to the
local to reconsider its action. His re-
quest was based on the fact that he
is the chairman Of the July 4th Con-
vention.
The issue came UP several days ago
in the Central Labor Council. After
a two hours battle the reactionary
machine was compelled to move that
the question be deferred for action to
the next meeting. This motion car
ried by majority OF one vote, "a
voting for and 20 voting against the
motion to defer action. a

New immigration Law
Registers Workers

WASHINGTON. May 27.-The i'm
migration law calling for the photo
graphing and registration Of immi-
grants and providing for Japanese ex-
clusion, effective July /, received
President Coolidge's signature today
and becomes a law. Coolidge's sur.
render was expected.
immigration from non-Asiatic coun-
tries is limited to quotas Of two per
cent Of the foreign-born population in
this country, according to the 1890
census. After July /, 1927. immigra-
ton will be limited to 10000, each
country getting a quota in this figure
according to national origins as shown
by the 1920 census. Not more than
10 per cent of the annual quota from
each country may receive visas in
any month.
Wives and children of American
citizens and citizens of Canada are
exempted from the quota provision.
Blow At UnionIsnn.
A blow at marine unionism is seen
in the ruling that alien seamen on
vessels touching at American ports
may not land except for medical treat
ment. This means that these work
ers are forbidden to walk out on
strike in American ports.
{ A nationwide fight was made
against the registration clauses OF the
bill, under which immigrants are COM
PEELED to register themselves SO that
the authorities may lay their hands
on them at any time desired. The
deportation deliriums of 1919;2O, when
striking mine and steel workers were
sent to immigration detention pens,
shows the use to which this provision
will be put, say unionists who fought
the measure.

RELEASED PRISON
MATE OF DOLLA
ASSISTS FAMILY
Steel Trusts Victim Has
Wife In Need

j. Martinovich, who has just recent
ly been released from the Pennsyl-
vania state penitentiary. where he
served a term as political prisoner,
knows what it is to be confined be-
hind the walls Of a cossack bastile.
Immediately upon his release from
prison he set about doing what he
could for his erstwhile co-prisoner,
Jacob Dolla.
The DAILY WORKER has received
the following letter from Comrade
Martinovich, which speaks for itself
as an act of comradeship and as an
example which may well be followed
by those workers who have not yet
felt to so severe an extent the iron
heel of capitalism:
Dear Comrades:
l know Jack Dolla in the peniten-
tiary, but l have never seen him out
side and really don't know his crime
or opinion. Personally / spoke with
him and came to the conclusion that
he fears nothing and conceals moth
ing, but he openly said that as long
as the steel corporation remains in
power and holds the influence over
the board of pardons, he will have to
stay eight more years in the peniten-
tiary.
The readers of the DAILY WORK
Err are aware that this militant strik-
er needs help for himself as well as
for his wife and children and l hope
that they will reply to his appeal for
help.
| am sending to the DAILY WORK
Err letter and $40 and forecast that
the others will do their duty.

Trachtenberg Wins
Canadian c Communists
In Vancouver Meet

VANCOUVER, B. c., May 81
Build up your revolutionary move
ment that American capitalism, which
is stretching its arms across the
ocean in an effort to strangle the re.
evolutionary workers of Germany, may
be kept busy at home" This urgent
request from Germany's toiling mass
es to the workers of North America
was delivered by Alexander Trachten.
berg to the wage earners Of this city,
at crowded meeting held under the
auspices of the Communist Party OF
Canada
Trachtenberg, who spoke on rus.
STA and Germany in 1928" and gave a
very vivid description Of present con.
ditions in both countries, is the first
Communist speaker to address a pub.
lie meeting in this city since the
changing of the Workers Party OF
Canada to the Communist Party OF
Canada.
At the close of the meeting, which
was attended by over thousand
workers, innumerable questions were
asked, and ably replied to by the
speaker A member of the Socialist
Party Of Canada took the platform,
and endeavored to show the impossi-
bility of a revolution, such as had
taken place in Russia, occurring in
Germany or Great Britain because of
the highly industrialized state of those
two countries. In closing, he stated,
1--WE have brains in our movement;
let us use Them" the inference being
that a surfeit of brains could accom-.
plish a peaceful change.
These arguments were rapidly torn
to pieces by Trachtenberg, who ex-
posed the reactionary theology which
gave birth to such conclusions, and
told the S. P. representative that per
sons holding such opinions should be
in the Salvation Army.
1t is the hope of Vancouver workers
that Comrade Trachtenberg, or some
other equally able exponent of Com
munism may soon visit this city again.

ling initiated by the Detroit league.

ditorium, meeting of volunteers of
the Jewish Workers Relief commit
tee, of which Comrade Winchevsky is
the national treasurer, was held. At
