Needle Trade Defense
Have You Accounted For Your
Tickets?

If you have not yet made an &C
counting for all your tickets, you are
committing a crime against the Joint
Defense Committee; against the cloak
makers and furriers who are behind
prison bars and against those who are
in danger of being put behind the
bars.
The defense committee is carrying
on campaign to defend the victims
of the Sigman- McGrady- Woll frame
ups upon the class conscious American
workers in the needle industry. With
sufficient funds this defense cam
paign will be carried on much easier
than without funds. The affairs ar
ranged by the defense committee are
doubly important,
Aid Fight On Sigman.
First they are demonstrations of
strength and power of the left wing
against the Sigman clique and the
other betrayers of the labor move
ment, and secondly they are for the
purpose of raising enough funds to
further the struggle against the be-
trayers.
The more successful the affairs are
the better it is for the fight. But
when thousands of dollars of tickets
are outstanding after every affair and
those tickets are not accounted for
Immediately the affair cannot be a
success. This is the case with the
Starlight Park Jamboree. Over $4,000
worth of tickets which makes the
bulk Of the profit are still outstand-
ing. Every worker who owes any
money or tickets to the defense, should
Immediately settle up their account.
Echoes of Starlight Park.
The Ozoritzer Young Mems Pro-
gressive Society sent in a check for
$68.75 for Starlight Park tickets. This
group understands the importance Of
accounting for tickets Immediately
and does not keep the money due the
defense committee. This club had done
very fine work for the defense. Dur
ing the time of the 100000 fund
campaign the club sold $50 worth of
roll calls. 1t has also bought bond
and was active during the bazaar and
Coney Island Stadium Concert.
Bet on Weather; Send Winnings to
Defense.
Bertha Kaplan made a bet with a
friend as to whether it will rain or
not on Saturday at Starlight Park.
She won the bet and gave the money
to the defense which was So.
Cannot Come, He Sends $40.
H. Silver sent check for $40 with
a note stating he did not have an OPP
portunity to come to the Jamboree
where he surely would have spent the
$40 and he hopes that the fight
against the betrayers of the labor
movement will be successful.
Sends Her Donation Anyway.
Mary Kozcy, member Of Local Is,
Furriers' Union, sent check of So
with the following letter: Dear
Friends: l have heard that you made
a collection at the opera at Starlight
Park, where / could not enter due to
the overwhelming crowd, l am there
fore sending you my donation, which
| would have given had I been there
and wish you success.
A Good Motion.
S. Wexler sent SIS, which, accord
ing to his opinion he would have spent
at the Park Jamboree He also moves
that everyone who could not come
to the Jamboree for one reason or
another should remit the money they
would have spent All workers should
accept it Fundamentally.
What Do You Sly?
The above mentioned facts clearly
show the attitude Of the workers to-
wards the defense committee. The
Ozaritzer Club has accounted for its
tickets on the very first day after the
affair. Various workers sent in
money although they could not come.
These are examples that must be fol-
lowed by all class conscious workers.
If you have not yet accounted for
your tickets, you must do so immedi-
ately, otherwise you are hindering the
work of the defense
