BRUNA HELP The
FASCIST LEAGUE
Commander Is High in
Blackshirt Ranks

The American Legion and the Fas-
cist League of North America are
combined in the Bronx in their fight
against the anti-fascist forces.
The commander of the Dauria-
Murphy Post of the American Legion
is Charles Di Carlo who is an i'm
portant figure in local fascist circles.
In response to the question of how
he could best serve fascism he replied,
"In the. American Legion"
When funeral services were being
held fer Carisi and Amorroso, the two
fascists killed last Decoration Day,
the American Legion participated in
the services. Donate Garlic and Ga
logero Greco, anti-fascists are today
in Jail awaiting trial, charged with
the killing. They are being framed
up by the combined forces of the fas-
cists, the police and the Tammany
Hall politicians.
Was Not A Soldier.
When asked why they participated
in services for fascists, the legion Of
ficials said because Carisi and Amor
rose were world war veterans.
While it is true that Carisi served
in the world war. there is no doubt
that Amorroso did not. In signed
statement of Amorroso he says that
he was born in Italy on February 9th,
1906. That means he was nine years
old at the time of the war!
Members of Squadristra.
Both Amorroso and Carisi were
members of the squadristra, the ter
rorist section of the fascist movement
in this country. At their funeral SER
vices held here, the Italian ambassa-
dor attended and delivered an grafton
over the bodies.
In Rome, Premier Mussolini and all
the ministers and fascist deputies
stood while Deputy Alfieri called upon
the fascist in America to avenge the
deaths.
Count Thaon di Revell, chief of the
Fascist League of North America,
working under the personal direction
of Mussolini was in charge of the
funeral arrangements.

all the terrorist tricks of the right
wing scabs who are working in open
cooperation with the bosses and the
police, the strikes are unusually sue
cessful.
Levine Answers Elsberg.
j. Levine, manager of the Joint
Board, cloak and dressmakers' union,
has denied that he has issued call
for general strike in the city.
"The facts of the matter are
these" he said, "Elsberg, president of
the manufacturers association fired

she supports the left wing admins
tration of the union. l then notified
Elsberg that if she was not reinstated
a shop strike would be called"

For Mineola Defense.

The Committee for the Defense of
the Mineola Prisoners has just issued
the following statement:
-. 1.-THE struggle against the union
wreclers is becoming more and more
intensified. Those workers who were
misled by the right wing reaction
aries are losing their patience. The
hundreds of contractors and corpora
ton sweat shops which have flooded
the trade, the slashing Of wages, the
miserable exploitation in the shops
and the huge army of unemployed
who have walked the streets during
the past few months-all this has
aroused the furriers as nothing else
has in the past.
Workers Revolt.
"The revolt of the workers against
the union-wreckers has begun anew
and in a more intense form than ever.
The provocateurs are beginning anew
their campaign of frame-ups against
loyal workers
"The special committee of the fur
riers which was organized to raise
funds for the defense of the Mineola
victims of the Forward McGrady
frame-up has taken up the campaign
with renewed enthusiasm. Contribu-
tons to the fund are urgently needed
All who wish to aid are asked to come
for donation lists which can be OBJ
tanned from H. Farber, secretary of
the committee, % East 22nd St."

termediate term in states prison of
Sam Gold, brother of Ben Gold. The
former was arrested as part of a
right wing franae-up during the re-
cent furriers' strike.
Result Of Exposure.
The attempt of Sigman to Jail the
militant leaders of the needle trades
grows out Of the exposure of his
amusement park at Storm Lake,
Iowa, where he employs workers at
unusually low wages. Sigman is try
ing to use these articles that ap-
peared in the Freiheit, Unity and The
DAILY WORKER as an excuse to
Jail his opponents.
In court today Sigman will have to
prove that the charges against him
are not true. The attorneys for the
workers are Joseph r. Brodsky and
Louis A. Boudin.

Chinese Peasant Armies
Win on Five Fronts
CONTINUED from Page y.

Communists shot by orders of the
tyrant Tang Shen-chi, who had dis
rupted the right wing nationalist
government at Marking by declaring
the independence of all the territory
held by his army, and seems to be
trying to create a separate nation.
Shanghai Fascist.
The process of reaction is aided in
Shanghai by the founding at a recent
meeting here of a fascist society, or
gained, provided with money, and
under the direction of the local Eng
lish reactionary circles.
The meeting consisted of about
two hundred members. 1t considers
itself international" 1t admits to
its ranks Russian whiteguards who
will evidently be charged with the
practical task of carrying out the
"shock" tasks of the fascist organiza-
ton.
British Leader.
The English press publishes in full
the speech of certain English mer-
chant named Firch, who has been
elected chairman of this organization.
Firch's speech froths with animal
hatred against the Lucrative strug-
gle of the Chinese masses and the
Soviet Union. He calls upon the for
eign residents in China to unite I'M
der fascist banners and act at their
own risk, opposing force to force"
1t is believed here that this open
agitation inviting a raid on the Soviet
Union consulate must give the NUM-
cipality (the foreign settlement) a
pretext to blockade the consulate with
strong guard, as we the case in
April, with view of preventing" a
raid, not however, until after such a
raid actually takes place.

Joint Board Statement.

The Joint Board of the Cloak and
Dressmakers' Union yesterday issued
a statement regarding the rumor of
mysterious "plan" which Sigman
and his clique is said to be arrang-
ing at present.
"The Sigmanites pretend that the
entire fate of the cloak and dress in
dustry depends on the plan that they
are now concocting," it says. GAS a
matter of fact the only ones that it
will affect are the chiefs in the po-
grom against the workers organiza-
tion.
