riers, is issuing a book entitled ''The

helped to carry on the fight against
the frame-up.
The book is being printed and will

up to the working masses to save
them. Money is needed immediately.
The appeal will cost at least $4,000.
More money will be needed for the
new trial--if one is granted. The
time is short.

your friends or relatives this Christ
mas postpone it until Dec. 90 when

Browder Opens Talks
on China Revolution
at Workers School

Earl R. Browder, secretary of the
Pan-Pacific Labor Congress, begins
a course on "The Chinese Revolution"
at the Workers School, 108 E. 14th
St., tomorrow night at 8 o'clock.
Browder recently returned from
China where he spent several months
in a study Of the Chinese Nationalist
movement and the Chinese revolution.
He was elected as secretary of the
Labor Congress by representatives of
workers organizations from all coun-
tries bordering on the Pacific.
The course will be devoted to an
analysis and study of the following
four topics: L. Character of the chi
nese Revolution; 2. Reiatlo- a lass
es; 3. The Agrarian Problem; 4. Per-
spectives of the Revolution.
A slight change has been made by
the Workers School in regard to this
course. In view of the fact that the
instructor will not be in New York
City after December Is, it has been
found necessary to shorten the course
from six sessions to four sessions.
For this same reason, the course
in the problems of the Pacific, :"
which was to have been given by
Browder after the Chinese Revolt
ton course, will be cancelled All
those who have registered for the
course in problems of the Pacific"
will be allowed to take the course in
the Russian Revolution" by Mois-
sage J. Olgin, which had its intro
ductory session last Saturday at 2

European Labor Eyes
GrecO-CarrillO Case
AS Trial Here Nears

The full weight of the Information
al Labor Defense is behind the move
ment to expose the frame-up of
Calogefo Greco and Donate GARLIC,
anti-fascists, who will go on trial in
the Bronx Dec. 5, charged with the
murder of two fascists last Decora-
ton Day, Rose Baron, local secretary

That the Greco-Carrillo case is be-
coming an international case is evil
denced by the fact that leaflets, post
ers, pamphlets and articles are al
ready being circulated thru Europe
and Latin America, Rose Baron said.
Word has been received at the of
fices of the International Labor De-
Tense that committees turnout the
United States which acted in behalf

Smith and Hoover
Lead Straw vOtG;
Look Toward 1928
(By Federated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Gov,
Al. Smith of New York is picked as
probable winner, by 1877 editors and
334 political leaders who answered a
QUESTIONABLE as to probable nominees
in the presidential race of next year.
This straw poll was taken by Geo.
B. Lockwood of the reactionary Ma
tional Republic, and it applied to re-
publican as well as democratic can
iidates. Lockwood wants to kick a
G. o. P. winner before the campaign
starts. He used to be secretary of
the G. 0. P. national committee.
Smiths rivals in the democratic
party scored as follows: Reed, 1853
editors and Ill political leaders; Nc
Adoo, 1902 newspapers and "a poll
ticians; Meredith, 10 newspapers
and 33 political experts.
Hoover Also Leads.
Hoover leads the republican field,
but has not majority over his near
est two rivals combined. First choice
in the judgment of the editors was:
Hoover SIT, Lowden 518, Hughes 218,
Dawes 88, Curtis 80, Borah % and
Longworth II. This was before Cur
tbs became an avowed candidate and
before Willis tossed his hat into the
ring. 1t was also prior to the agree
ment of the western insurgents to
support Norris. Political leaders
showed first preference in this order:
Hoover 267, Lowden 248, Hughes lis,
Dawes so.
Dawes With Hughes.
Hoover strength was indicated in
most of the states, as was also the
support for Dawes and Hughes. Low
den strength was chiefly in the Mis-
sissippi Valley, where he is now
fought by the Norris orah group.
Most significant is Lockwood's OBJ
servation that "the support of Hughes
and Dawes is almost identical and
may turn to the one or the other be-
lore or during the convention. It is
by no means certain that Gov.
Hughes will enter the race unless de-
velopments indicate at least an even
chance of securing the nomination"

~ a Worker Correspondent.

The DAILY WORKER carried an
article Tuesday, Nov. II, entitled "a
Worker Talks with McGrady." In
this article we are told that McGrady,
the A. F. of L. labor official, becan&
all of sudden very much interestdB
in having The DAILY WORKER dis
tributed and also made the surprising
remark: go back to your comrades
and tell them that the gangstor Nc
Grady helped you to distribute The
DAILY WORKER"
The worker very aptly put ques-
lions to McGrady about his activities
and his connections with the Fur
riers' Union recently. How Mr.. Nc
Grady answered these questions the
writer of the article did not tell US.

ed to answer
McGrady's americans"
Nevertheless, our good friend"
McGrady did say something Monday
night that may throw light on this
subject. At meeting of the Union
Of Technical Men McGrady was in
vited by Frayne to address those
present and induce them to join the
union. During his talk McGrady> COM

workers with the mental workers. He
pointed out quite correctly that the
manual workers in many cases were
drawing higher salaries, had better

respect from their employers. He
continually flattered the men present
by referring to them as the Cream
of the people," the real Americans, "
"the brains of America"
, Gutter Graduates
He told them that the furriers and
other manual workers were getting
anywhere from $50 to S120 a week.
He didn't tell them how many weeks
during year they worked. He told
them that they got all this thru or
ganization, which is true, but then he
took lot of credit for himself. He
told the men that they must become
Statesmen" and must sell the union
to the unorganized Cream" I guess
he must have had experience in sell
ing unions.
In his wind-up, as he was reaching
his climax, he was saying, "You men
of years of training, YOU graduates
of colleges and universities, what do
you get, while those foreigners, many
of whom can neither read nor write
in any language, those" and here
he CROPPED for the appropriate term

the limit. We know the labor move

We know we may be next. The brick
