That evening Jean Kildane and

Parents Will Meet to
Protest Transfer of
Pupils in Chi. School

CHICAGO, Feb. 22.-An indigna-
ton meeting of parents to protest
against the transfer of seventh and
eighth grade children from the Ban
croft public school to the Sabin ju-
nior high school will be held Thurs
day, February "a, at 8 p, M, at the
North Western Hall, corner North
and Western AYES.
The transfers were made by the
school authorities without the knowl-
edge of the parents. The children
have to walk many blocks and have
to pass two car tracks in going to
the new school. When the parents
heard about these transfers a pre-
liminary meeting was held and a
provisional committee elected to call
a mass meeting of all the parents of
the school.
This committee, together with the
North West Side Parents League, is
calling the meeting Thursday. All
the parents of the north west side
are invited to attend the meeting.
There will be good speakers, who will
explain the situation in the public
schools in general. Come yourself
and bring your neighbors. Come for
the sake of the children!

Comrades and
Fellow Workers:

After a years heroic struggle of
the Passaic textile workers, the mill
barons were forced to submit to a
union in the textile industry of Pas
sale. They are however putting OBJ
stacles in the way Of maintaining
such an organization. Although the
strike is almost over, they are taking
the workers back very slowly, with
the result that thousands Of families
are without means Of existence. Their
children are hungry.
There are many families whose sole
supporters were sent to Jail for long
periods because of their activities in
the strike. You must come to their
rescue. Relief must go on with full
speed!
The General Relief Committee, who
Is maintaining few food stores in

taken milk coupons to send in their
money as soon as possible, no matter
how much you have collected. Send

sent letter to Joseph Martinez. lead
er of the Bohemian socialists of Cleve-
land, challenging him to debate,
Martinek pretends TO be a revolution

Dear Comrade: There is a gulf be-
tween the philosophy which you stand
for and that which the Workers Com

crs in the two camps-and the work
ers generally-are seldom given an
opportunity Of deciding which is cor
rect, owing to the fact that they do
not hear arguments pro and con at
the same time.
In order that the Bohemian work
ers of Cleveland may be given an
opportunity of Judging which posi-
ton is correct-the Communist or the
socialist-the Workers (Communist)
Party, District Executive Committee,
District Six, proposes the following:
That Joseph Martinez debate with
a representative of the Workers
(Communist) Party on the subject:
Resolved that the Workers (Com-

for the working class"
The time, place and conditions of
the debate shall be determined by =
conference of three of your side, and
three representing the Workers Com

held within a week. The debate is
to be conducted in English.

(By a Worker Correspondent
CLEVELAND.-Recently, in this
city, there was to have been a meet
ing of all fascists and pro-fascists,
for the purpose of raising funds to
support Mussolini's newspapers in
Italy.
The secretary of the Fascist or
ganization announced at this time
that Consul Valeriani of Cleveland,
the principal speaker of the after
noon, had been delayed and would ar
rive in half-hour. After the inter-
val had passed, the group was impa-
tent, and the large body of anti
fascists, summoned by the Anti
Fascist Alliance, determined to use
the opportunity to hold demonstra-
ton against Mussolini, right there in
the hail.
Doctor Speaks.
DR.. Biagiotti, one of these, rose to
speak, and the crowd closed in to
hear him. Five hard-boiled police,
well armed with sawed-off shot-guns,
and black jacks, ETC., entered the
place, took possession, and walked
Biagiotti out of the hall, locking the
doors behind them until he might be
safely out the way. Two others,
Tony Ross and Louis Divito, who fol-
lowed the police to demand what they
were going to do with Biagiotti, were
also arrested.
Police for BenitO.
Meanwhile the temperature of the
audience, of whom there were at
least Ia Anti-Fascists to each of the
fascists, was rising ominously, as
from all sides of the hall obvious de-
tectives and armed police entered, un-
til there must have been at least so
in all of these scavengers.
Shouting, jostling, discussions,
threatening, singing, all of these
things; while the consul came and
had not known there was so much
sentiment against Mussolini in
Cleveland"
Two and one-half hours after the
time set for the meeting, the audience
was put out of the hall, with the
statement that the meeting was
called off.
DR.. Biagiotti has been held for dis
turbanee, the others for the same and
for resisting an officer. The Interna-
tional Labor Defense will take up the
defense.
