"My name and Lucas name were
written on the black board during the
first day of the convention" Speedie
told the DAILY WORKER, "and we
were told to come to the convention
headquarters at the Jefferson Hotel.
There Olander met us and we were
asked to sign the Dowell anti-Klan
resolution. AS we signed it Olander
said, I'd advise you to withdraw that
resolution, 1t would be to the best
interests of the federation if the Klan
issue didn't come up on the conven-
tion floor. / replied that the Klan
resolution was there and there it was
going to stay. / demanded copy of
the resolution, and when Olander as
sured me the resolution would come
up on the floor, 1 read it over carefully
to make sure it would come up just as
we had introduced it.
harrington Is Busy.
"A little later we met Frank Far
rington in the lobby of the Jefferson
Hotel You are the Dowell boys,
aren't you? Harrington asked us.
Aren't you the fellows who introduced
the resolution condemning the Ku
Klux Klan?' When he found out we
were, Harrington asked us to with
draw the Klan resolution.
Harrington showed us a letter ad-
dressed to him, with the three letters
K. K. K. typewritten at the top and
bottom. The letter warned Earring
ton that he would lose thousands of
votes unless he used his influence to
keep the anti-Klan resolution from
coming up on the floor of the feder-
alton convention, and to fight it if it
did come up.
Harrington then said," Speedie
told the DAILY WORKER, "' Boys, 1
wish you would withdraw that resolu-
tion from the convention. 1 have just
had a talk with Olander and we want
to withdraw that resolution. If I use
my influence to quietly withdraw the
resolution, will you fellows keep
quiet and not bring it up on the con-
vention fioor?'
Speedie Stands Pat.

An enthusiastic crowd Of
workers, at the corner of 3oth
and State Streets, waited thru
a dreary drizzIe of rain, thru the
honking of the auto horn of an
infuriated "pIute," thru the
deafening howl of an old "min-
strel" on the corner opposite,
while | told my own story of
how | had been pushed and
mauIed, jeered at and followed
for blocks, for attempting to
distribute a few copies Of the
DAILY WORKER on Defense
Day, in Grant park, on Chi
cago's lake front.
And within a few minutes
after l left the platform, hund-
reds of copies of the DAILY
WORKER had been placed in
eager hands.
What is this paper that the
authorities are so anxious to
keep from us?" was the uni
versal question.
From soap-boxes all over the city,
Workers Party members spoke on Fri
day and Saturday nights, telling of the
real meaning of Defense Day, of the
business interests behind the last war,
of the imminence and horror of the
next capitalist war. Always, when the
speaker told of the criminal destruc-
tion of the only working class news
paper in the country, at the hands of
half dozen patriotic rowdies, an
eager group crowded about to get
hold Of copy of the DAILY WORK
Err.
ManIey and Owens Speak.
Joseph Manley, campaign manager
of the Workers Party, and Gordon
Owens, candidate for congress from
the first congressional district on the
Workers Party ticket, spoke to a
crowd of Negro workers on the South
Side.
They told how Defense Day, among
other things, had been made Jim
Crow day-how the Negro workers
who showed themselves willing to
march behind an imperialist flag had
been segregated in Washington park,
and forced to go thru with celebra-
tion entirely separate from the
white" celebration in Grant park.
One of the most successful meet
ings was that held at the corner of
Roosevelt and Homan Sts, under the
auspices of the Young Workers
League, where ]. Louis Engdahl,
Editor of the DAILY WORKER, and
Abe Harris, talked to an ever-increas-
ing crowd on the subject Of imperial
ism and war.
Herd Feels Police Fist.
So successful were the meetings
that the cops have again begun to
get busy. At the corner of Lawrence
and Sawyer Sts., Peter Herd, member
of the Young Workers League, was
taken from the box and marched off
to the Racine avenue station. Mem
bers Of the League believe that the
police may have been the agents of
the Irving Park Business Mems league,
which had drummed up the charges
of 'disorderly conduct" and hinder
ing traffic" Comrade Herd was re.
leased and the case postponed to al
low the police to bring in witnesses.
Thru these meetings, literature-the

Labor Herald, pamphlets of all sorts

dreds of signatures are being obtained
at these meetings which will help to

TOM THUMB WEDDING UN XNEGT ENn

An interesting event of Friday eve ming was the Tom Thumb wedding pre- sented by the beginner department Of the West End Methodist church.

 Preceding the ceremony, Master Anton sang Sunrise and You" and Il Love You Truly" accompanied by Miss Evelyn Sellers. Miss Julia Bledsoe rem dered violin solo. Miss Marjorie Thomas played the wedding march.
 The brides maids, dressed in costumes of the pastel shades and carrying arm bouquets of chrysanthemums, with the groomsmen entered from oposite aisles, were Robert Murray, Mildred Daniels i; Harwell Moseley, Mildred Baker; Billie Clark, Edna Madge Roberts; Lindsay Downs, Josephine Finke; George Downs, Mary Newell; Jack Sims, Lil- lie Mae Thornburg; Edward Hughes, Elizabeth Sturkie; Eugene Seilbinder, Eleanor Elizabeth Harper; Laney Cow an and Gladys Gillian.
 The matron of honor, Miss Margaret Barker Elliott, wearing a gown of lav- ender tulle, entered alone, and carried an arm bouquet of pink chrysanthe nuns.
 little Miss Marjorie Conwell, wear ing old rose with trimmings of sequins and silver, with an arm cluster of white chrysanthemums, attended the bride as maid of honor.
 The little flower girls, Margaret Adelle Hickman and Evelyn Lewis, wearing, frocks of pink and blue tulle. carried arm baskets of flower petals and the little ring bearers, Glenn Raiford Mays and Howard Banton, wore suits of white and carried the rings in the hearts of white chrysanthemums, en- tered from opposite aisles.
 The bride, Miss Ellie Nany Smyer, entered on the arm of her father, Master Stacey Williams, who gave her in marriage. Her gown was fashioned of white georgette with ostrich trim mings. A court train of lace fell grace fully from the shoulders and the tulle veil was caught in place with a wreath of orange blossoms.

My NeighborSays

If cake is put in too slow an oven, it often rises over the sides of the pan and is of very coarse texture. If put in too hot an oven it browns on top before sufficiently risen, and in its attempts to rise breaks through the crust. Cake will also crack on top if too much flour is used. The oven should be kept at as nearly uniform temperature as possible. Small and layer cakes require a hotter oven than loaf cakes.
 To remove scorched marks from lin- en, use the juice of an onion. Bake a large onion and squeeze out the juice through piece of muslin; mix with an ounce of fuller's earth, little finely shredded soap and a wineglass of vine gar. Boil together til the soap has dis solved, leave till cold and then apply the preparation to the scorched linen. Let it dry, and then wash in the usual way.
 Always let cake stand in the pan in which it is to be baked five minutes before putting it into the oven.
 A cup of coffee is a good substitute for brandy in dark cake. It gives a good flavor.
 The bars of grate often have a burned and ugly appearance, which pre- vents their taking a good polish. Be- fore applying the backing rub the bars with a piece of lemon, and it will be quite easy to polish them afterward.
