N. Y. to Answer the Legion.
NEW YORK CITY, Jan. 19.-"What
Lenin means to the American Work
ers." 1.-THE Theoretical heritage of
Leninism": 'Lenin's guidance on the
organization and rule of a Commun-
list Party; "Lenin and the American
empire: "Lenin's Russia as sym
Dol of the achievements of Leninism";
these are some of the topics which
will be discussed at the four big Lenin
memorial meetings to be held in the
New York district simultaneously on
Sunday afternoon.
Tried to Prevent Meetings.
Last year and the year before the
meeting filled and overflowed Madi-
son Square Garden, the largest hall in
the United States and thousands were
turned away. This year the big bust
ness interests, represented in such so
cieties as the American Flag Associa-
ton, were determined to prevent the
annual demonstration and succeeded
in preventing the party from hiring
Madison Square Garden.
It's answer has been to hire four
halls and it is still negotiating for
others to handle the overflow crowds.
Each of these halls is large enough to
hold huge mass demonstration and
yet the party is confident that they
will all be overcrowded and the over
flow halls held in reserve will have
to be used.
Four Simultaneous Meetings.
All of the meetings will go on stimuli
taneously, beginning at p. m. sharp
on Sunday, Jan. "a. The speakers in
clude Comrades Jay Lovestone, Ben
Gitlow, M. j. Olgin, VIM. W. Vein
stone, Charles Krumbein and others.

will cover all the four meetings and

to each individual meeting.
