ELECTROCUTE 2 YOUNGSTERS
BeardIess Youths Protest limo
cence to the Last

STATE PRISON FARM, Milledge
vile, Ca, March 28-The bodies OF
two beardless youths OF 81 stiffened
in death here today as the low moan
of an electric transformer built ur
fatal current to kill the first white
men to die in the electric chair IN
Georgia. Negroes have been electro
cuted before.
Floyd w. McClelland, of Brock; on
N, Y, and Oil City, Pa, and Ted Cog.
geshall, of Quincy, ILL.,, went to th5ir
deaths denying to the last their guilt
of the murder of Professor w. c.
Wright, aged Georgia schoolmaster, in
Putnam county, last March.
A dramatic scene was enacted whom
the father of CoggeshaIl embraced his
son as he was being strapped to the
chair and cried out that he would
never believe the lies that had cln-
ylcted his boy. The warden then
turned on the switch and two lives
we're snuffed out.

The article is still in the process of
making and promises to be worth
while.
At the same meeting we had dis
cussion of the disarmament confer
ence. The method we used can serve,
l think, as a model of collective work
First, every comrade told in brief all
the facts he knew about the confer
ence. After having all the facts on
hand we proceeded with the discus
sion. Again every comrade spoke. We
spoke now of the theoretical side of
the question. We spoke of the ques-
ton of Soviet Russia and the disarm-
ament conference and so on.
This method is especially valuable
in units where there are new and in
active comrades. This is one Of the
ways of drawing them into the work
and making real Bolsheviks of them.

CONDUCTED ~ TAEa&& ,XQuNG WORKERS LEAGUE
BOSSES SPORTS-A MENACE TO THE
WORKING CLASS

(c) The religious and church organ
izations.
(d) Government sport organizations
in a capitalist society.
(e) Industrial sport organizations.
(f) Organizations of pure capital
list character.
In the capitalist sport world the
workers primarily play a passive role.
In the staging of professional sports
only a privileged and talented few
qualify for participation. And the
workers constitute the spectators. At
the huge boxing and wrestling events,
bicycle and automobile races and
games and contests of all sorts the
proletarian mingles with the we'll
TODD sportsmen and bourgeoisie in
watching and applauding the perform
ers. He regards with indifference
the fact that halls and fields are deco
rated with national banners, and that
the orchestra plays patriotic hymns.
And on gala occasions the king or
president, the state official, militarist
hero or industrial magnate appear
and are accorded ovations. In order
to follow the sport events the worker
is compelled to buy the bourgeois pa
pers which devote a great deal of
space to the results of the contests
and games. In reading this press it
follows naturally that the worker
swallows the capitalist propaganda
which it contains in it's treatment of
sport as we'll as other news. 1t is
time for class conscious proletarians
to stop supporting bourgeois sport
with it's attendant anti-working-class
feature.
1t is apparent that fascism, nation
alism, militarism and capitalist prop
uganda are inseparate from bour-
geoisie sports. The worker must
realize that these things are his enc
mics and must take up the fight
against them. He must come to under
stand that in the field of sports and
gymnastics he must take his choice:
either with the bourgeoisie or with
the proletariat. 1t is time to put an
end to the theological confusion which
prevails in the ranks Of the workers
and particularly the young workers
lin regard to the question of sports.
He must effectively repudiate and ex-
pose those who dare to proclaim the
impartiality and neutrality of physical
culture.
A powerful movement in the field
Of proletarian sports and physical cul-
turei will play tremendous role in
strengthening the fighting capacities
and defensive powers of the proleta-
rat We must strive for the develop
ment and growth of such movement.
The revolutionary working class par
ties, trade unions and youth organi-
cations must give all possible help
and support to this work.
The Red Sport International is fight
ing in the front ranks of the working
class. We must try to develop a
thoro propaganda in the proletarian
press and organizations to the end
that the workers may come to under
stand the harmful role of capitalist
sports and the necessity of opposing
it with proletarian sports. Let us build
the proletarian physical culture and
help to forge the weapons of the revo-
luton. F. REUSSNER.

SUCCESSFUL Id.
MEET AT DETROIT
Head of U. N. |. A. Gives Speech
Together with Well
Known Hereto

DETROIT, March 2S-Perhaps one
oil the largest audiences that has ever
attended, a meeting of The Interpa-
tional Labor Defense in Detroit, gath
cred Tuesday evening, March %, TO
listen to William Montgomery Brown,
unfrocked bishop of the Episcopal
church, and Mr.. ]. Peters, official head
OF the Universal Improvement Asso-
citation and Lovett Whiteman,
Negro labor leader plead the cause
of labor defense on an international
worldwide basis.
Bishop Brown, one of the best plat
form orators in America, widely
known for his agnosticism and his
defense of the rights of the common
people, was the main speaker. The
bishop who has rebelled against the
superstition and ignorance of the
christian church, humorously exposed
the inconsistency and shortcomings
Of that organization.
Following Bishop Browns speech,
DR.. j. Peters, head of the New York
division of the U. N. l. A. was pre-
scented to the audience. Peters made
an able defense of the position of the
Universal Negro Improvement Assoc
citation. The speaker was however,
forced to make the admission that
the Negro problem of independence
was wrapped up in the larger ques.
ton of human freedom.
Charging that the Imprisonment OF
Marcus Garvey, and the recent sen.i
ment broadcasted for the deportation
of Marcus Carney, is being engineered
from the same sources from which
The talk and sentiment of alien le-
portation is being spread, Peters
plead for a united front of the people
who believe in real freedom, for those
individuals who Loyalty throw them
selves on the battle line of human
rights.
Robert Minor representing the cen
trail executive committee of the Work
ers (Communist) Party was the next
speaker. Minor beginning with TIE
| h4SlOAtCdA pcI4Ou VI Tue EdTlS I )lu
mune, traced the bloody line that has
been left by those defenders of hui
man liberty, the labor leaders of the
world revolutionary movement. Min
cr's eloquent and vivid appeal was
the means of bringing many humid eds
! CT dollars to the defense chest of the
I. L. d.
The last speaker on the program
but not the least, was Lovett Font
Whiteman, national organizer of ne
American Negro Labor Congress
Whiteman laid thoroly and firmly q
basis for universal cooperation Of he
International Labor Defense with the
Negro peoples, not only Of America
but turnout the world. Whiteman's
address by reason of its international
appeal, being devoid of all racial and
sectarian color was loudly applarded
and well received by the audience
The evenings meeting was heraldet
as one of the biggest successes OF the
l. L. d. ever held in Detroit.

THE Red Sports International has
L proclaimed that it mercilessly
struggles against capitalist, religious
and neutral sports organizations. At
the present time, when reaction is
gaining strength, such q struggle is
absolutely necessary.
In almost all countries an energetic
propaganda is being carried on by the
bourgeois and is receiving a response
among the broad masses. In the vic
torious countries such propaganda
is serving the purpose of promoting
imperialist military training and takes
the place of systematic preparation
for war. The bourgeoisie has in this
way to large extent succeeded in
getting a hold on the masses.
After the war workers sports or
CARNATIONS began to spring up, as a
consequence of the intensifation of
class differences and the class strug-
gle. With the development Of their
class consciousness the workers could
not remain in the existing sport or
CARNATIONS which served the pur-
pose of supporting the capitalist sys-
TEN. The workers were correct in
freeing themselves from the claws of
the bourgeois sports organizations and
setting up their own.
1t is a deplorable fact that in some
countries workers who conscientiously
adhere to class political and economic
organizations still remain members of
the bourgeois organizations because
there are not proletarian sport bodies
in existence. In other countries the
workers sport organizations coop
crate and maintain connections with
the bourgeoisie organizations.
We categorically assert that there
can be nothing in common between
the proletarian and bourgeoisie sport
organizations. If we are Marxists we
must understand that there is no
event without purpose and exula-
nation and which is not preceded by
cause and followed by a conse-
quence. II the bourgeoisie agree to
cooperation with the proletariat, if
they tolerate the representatives of
the workers in their organizations and
even try to draw them in, then it is
not their intention to make conces-
sions to them, but to conquer the
proletarian organizations and make
them serve their own class purposes.
In the interests of the preservation of
their class hegemony the bourgeoisie
otherwise.
In the camp of bourgeoisie physical
culture there exists deep differen-
tiation. We must be able to under
stand the contradictions and conflicts
between the various sections of the
bourgeoisie sports movement in or
der to be able to fight against the
whole effectively. Almost all Of the
bourgeoisie sports organizations pre-
tend to be neutral and impartial
But this is only mask to catch the
unsuspecting masses. In the analysis
of the bourgeoisie sport organizations
we can distinguish the following
types:
(a) Bourgeoisie organizations adj
herring consciously to definite po-
litical platform and engaging in agi-
tation activity.
(b) The so-called neutral and i'm
partial organizations.
