TRUMBULL.


HONOLULU (5y MALL 1--WE are
leaving for Alcatraz, Calf, on the
U. S. A. T. Cambria, sailing August
9th Saturday. It is reported that
we can write only one letter per week
(tho that report may not be true),
while in AIcatraz. In that case, we
can write but few letters to our COM
rades.
We hope that they will understand
our condition and will continue to
write to us, as letters from Commun-
list comrades are very encouraging.
We can receive all letters. AS to
other literature, it is probable that
we will be permitted to receive it.
AS for the New York Times, there
: will be no objection to our receiving
it. OF course, we will have to read
between the lines to understand the
real facts.
We regret that too much Of our
lives have been wasted and that we
did not fight always Tor the working
class as we should have done. But
we hope that in the future, we may
be able to make up for the past. With
that purpose in mind, we will study
and prepare ourselves while in AL
catraz, for more efficient service to
the proletarian cause.
Who knows? Perhaps even our
friends may be surprised at our work
for the cause resulting from our prep
arations and plans for future work
against imperialism.
Dear comrades, this may be the last
letter we will be permitted to write
to you for some time, and, until we
are released we will be able to write
nothing not approved by authorities :.
But as long as we live we will keep
up the fight and we will always be
true to the cause. Our bodies, only,
can be imprisoned by the brutal
agents of capitalism. Our best wishes
and hopes are with you in your fight
for Communism. ~
We will be happy as long as the
comrades keep up the fight, but eve
are sorry we are unable to take San
active part. Our devotion to the
cause of the workers cannot be killed
by persecution.
Please extend our thanks tofthe
comrades for their efforts in our be-
| half and assure them that we will
continue to stand firm for our glorious
cause. as All

fore the field COURT He declared that

convinced Communist.
On the 9Th of August after the an

Red Aid Protests.
According to a Communication from
the e. G. of the International Red
Aid, the Persidiumt of the Interna-
tional legal bureau sent the following
telegram of protest against the execu-
ton of Botwin to the Lemberg field
court:
1.-THE handing over of Botwin to a
field court in time. Of peace for the
killing of police spy who cannot be
considered as an official of the state,
is completely illegal. 1t means that
the Polish government has raised
provocation to a legal system in the
struggle against the movement of the
working class and the peasantry.'
