Establish Right to
Speak Alien Tongue
on New York Streets

NEW YORK CITY.-Cemrade Po-
pajanes and Serros, members of the
Greek Federation of the Workers
Party, were arrested on Wednesday
night, for holding meeting in the
Greek language.
The police have interfered with
other Greek meetings, and the party
determined to make test of the mat
ter. The meeting held by Greek COM
rades at 39th st. and sth Ave. was
well attended. This is proletarian
section of the city, even tho party
meetings are molested by members
Of the American Legion and petty
businessmen.
Comrade Popajanes was the speaker,
Comrade Serros the chairman Of the
meeting. A tradesman in the district
denounced Comrade Popajanes To- the
police, who arrested Comrade PopS
james. Comrade Serros interposed
that he was the chairman of the
meeting and got slap in the face
for interfering with the police"
1t was question whether a foreign
language may be used at street
corner meetings in New York or not
To be sure, Yiddish has been used
for years-and in reality there is no
ordinance against the use of any Ian
guage, But the police had to find some
excuse to disturb Workers Party
meeting and got slap in the face
by the Greek comrades near Chathma
Square.
The two comrades were hailed to
court. Comrade Popajanes was dis
charged-and the question of using
a foreign tongue is established once
for all. Comrade Serros was fined IS
for interfering with the officer.

Stress Demands

Hundreds Of Colored Freight Han

Lines, affiliated with the National AS
ISOLATION Railway Mechanics, Helpers,
Laborers and Freight Handlers, have
filed complaint with officials of the
Southern Railway Co., in matter of
misapplication of wage rules effective
May, 1921.
The wages of these employees were
arbitrarily reduced by the officials Of
the Southern Railway Co., by coercing
them and forcing them to sign On
agreement affecting a wage cut, at
large number of the smaller stations.
The freight handlers receive Use per
hour. The fact is, there is no mi
formity In the application of wages
paid to Colored Freight Handlers in
the Southern System.
This matter will claim the atten-
ton OF every railroad employee who
is represented at the American Negro
Labor Congress in Chicago, October
25th. They will put up strong front
and contribute their moral and il nee
essary their financial support to this
hight for justice and fair play.

Just Past Mistake
When charged in the questions, sf-
ter the lecture, to explain Japan's
lending of money and supplying OF
arms to two different factions of the
Chinese, and to justify the massacring
and devastating of the Koreans to put
down their rebellion, his most bene-
VIOLENT highness could only plead
that these were mistakes of the past.
Never again would Japan act to-
ward China or Korea in any but the
most kindly and disinterested attitude
of helpfulness. Yet he admitted that
Japans interests in China must be
protected and there is only one way
to protect imperialistic interests in an
unwilling country; Japan has in the
past, and will undoubtedly in the fu-
ture take that way-which is the way
called duress, and means force, bonn
bardment, killing.
Should Be Grateful to oppressors
The count is of the opinion, too, that
the Koreans, far from resenting their
bloody annexation by the Japanese,
should feel the deepest gratitude, be-
cause think of the horrible fate which
would have befallen them if Czarist
Russia instead of Japan had annexed
them, and they had been inherited by
the Union of Socialist Soviet Repub-
lies!
The count did not explain just what
was so undesirable about the position
of autonomous republics enjoyed by
the Kurds, Kirgiz, Azerbaidjans, and
many other Asiatic peoples, under
which status the Koreans, too, might
now be thriving.
"of Course" We Don't Know!
When called thru a question to give
some proof of his bland assumption
that Japan in keeping Korea out of
the Soviet Union had saved them from
some horrible fate, the glib nobleman
matched his ridiculous idealization OF
Japan's foreign policy with an equally
crude and even more false representa-
tion of the iniquity of the Communist
regime in Russia
His statements that "of course you
all know that the government of Rus
STA is perfectly rotten, that the people
are starving, and that they are living
under the worst tyranny the world has
ever known" was accepted only by
those persons in the audience who
expressing admiration for the counts
wonderful fairness rode rapidly
away in their limousines. The stu
dents, who were in the large majority,
quite evidently knew better.

a socialist state together with men.

notorious taxi police law which gave

aItho all the taxicab drivers had held
meetings and protested against the
passage Of the law.
One of the bitterest opponents OF
this law was George Obrien, known
amongst the taxi drivers as fighting

was passed that the open shop Yellow
