Author and IdeGIiSt
BY ISRAEL AMTER
Especial to The Daily Worker)

NEW YORK, July 1s.-comrade
John Lassen, former editor of the
Hungarian Communist daily news
paper Elore, who has been III for six
weeks, died in the St. Josephs hos.
pital Friday night.
Comrade Lassen was a militant re-
volutionist since his youth. He was
active in 1914 in spreading anti-war
propaganda in Hungary, WHARF he
helped to found the left wing of the
social democratic party, and the Com
munist Party of Hungary.
Comrade Lassen made an attempt
on the life of Count Tisza, for which
he was sentenced to prison. He was
released by the Soviet revolution and
led the youth revolution in Budapest,
after which he attended congresses
of the Young Communist Internatio-
nal before coming to America in 1921.
In December, 1924, Comrade Lassen
was indicted by the United States
government and threatened with de-
portation for writing a revolutionary
poem, and articles in the Elore.
Comrade Lassen contributed many
articles and stories to the DAILY
WORKER, including his novel, MA
sters and Slaves"
For eleven years Comrade Lassen
was i'll with tuberculosis which reach
ed an acute stage last week. The
funeral will be held at the Hungarian
home on Sunday. He will be cremated.
Comrade Lassen's life was an ex-
ample for all revolutionists, he was an
idealist, an excellent Communist fight
er, thinker, author and man of
action.

RELEASE CICERO
COMMUNISTS IN
SPEECH FIGHT

The charges against Irving Search
and ]. K. Dante, arrested in the CT
cero free speech fight, were dismissed
in the Cicero police court. The two
Communists were arrested two weeks
ago at a street meeting on the corner
of 49th Court and 14th st. A gang
of sluggers, led by priest, attacked
the meeting and tried to break it up.
Instead of arresting the rowdies, the
police arrested the speakers.
The prosecutor, Christensen, told
the defendants that he believed in
going to church every Sunday and
protecting religion. He also rang in
the Scopes case, and said he would
protect Cicero from "heresy." The
policeman who made the arrest of
Search, however, said the Commun-
lists were arrested not for attacking
the church, but for distributing and
selling a pamphlet about unemploy-
ment." The judge then dismissed the
case.
David Bentall, attorney for the
Communists, demanded that the
police interference with Workers
Party meetings cease. He announced
that meetings are held on the street
corner every Thursday night, and
would continue.
Christiansen,' who spoke loudly OF
protecting the church." has also done
good work in protecting the vice and
crime ring, and the Western Electric
company noted as tax dodgers. He
would not guarantee however, that

men.
Last Thursday night, altho no ar.
rests were made, a police Ford drove
up, dragged Comrade Androlius, who
was speaking in Lithuanian, from the
platform, warned the speakers not to
continue and sped away.
All party members are urged to be
at the corner next Thursday night
to help conduct the meeting and see
that rowdies or priests do not break
it up.
