Arthur zinn 0ut.Of
Jail; Attempt Made
To Hold Him | Day

The release of Arthur linn, mem
Der of Local 10, International Ladies
Garment Workers Union, from Wei
fare Island prison, where he served
ten months of a one-year sentence
after being framed up for his strike
activities in the recent strike of his
organization in New York, vas ac-
complished yesterday after race
against time and against mysterious
influences which threatened to hold
him in prison for at least an extra
day despite the fact that his release
had been ordered by the parole com
mission.
Papers Mysteriously Lost"
linn was one of the active workers
in the cloakmakers' strike who was
sent to prison in the International
Ladies Garment Workers Union
nearly a year ago. During the trial
the Sigman machine did all in its
power to prejudice the case against
the strikers by spreading rumors
that they were Communist slug
gers" Morris Sigman is president
of the international Ladies' Garment
Workers Union. Since the conviction
the New York Joint Board of the
Union, under leadership of the mill
tant section of the workers, has
worked night and day to secure
their release.
Rights Defeated
Recently it became known that the
efforts Of the New York Joint Board
would be successful. The Sigman
machine saw with chagrin that the
prisoners were soon to be free. There
fore the reactionary machine UrIed
to get the imprisoned workers to
sign populations of their actions in
the strike, promising to secure their
release" in return for the repudia-
ton.
Yesterday linn was to be released
and the fact was announced by the
New York Joint Board. being pub
lished in The DAILY WORKER, the
Freiheit and the Jewish Day. The
papers were signed and in order.
A committee from the Joint Board
went to welcome the comrade to
freedom.
But between the parole commits
sion, where the papers were signed,
and the court of special sessions,
which was to complete the formal
ties of release, the papers were lost
to sight.
Nobody knew anything about it.
But already the whisper was circu-
lated that a mysterious hand was at
work to prevent the release.
Being convinced that the '1ost"
papers had been tempered with be-
tween the parole commission and the
court, the representatives of the
Joint Board rapidly proceeded to
duplicate the entire work of securing
new papers. New papers were made

SUPREME COURT
DUMPS IN WASTE
basket II CASES

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Nov. q.
The Supreme Court. after yesterday
INDUCING in an orgy Of reaction,
recognizing as legal the Jim Grow
law of Mississippi segregating col
ored school children, today arbitrarily
threw out petitions for review right
and left because ostensibly they
made too much work for the court
The justices themselves decided which
petition involved too much work, and
no one knows whether in any partic-
ular case this was the real reason or
not.
Laying aside other business, the
court at one strike rejected n petit
lions for writs of review and virtually
cleaned its docket Of these petitions.
Chief Justice Taft, it was pointed
out, had indicated a determination to
decide these petitions promptly.
The court also rejected four petit
tions for reviews, because the lawyers
made their briefs too long.

Daily" Builders Plan
Campaign for Support

Continued from Page One)
thru a series of crises than not to live
at all!
And yet our circulation is not suf-
ficient to cover our expenses in spite
Of the fact that many signs of revolt
in the ranks of the workers is so
wildly depicted in our columns. One
reason for this lack of circulation is
that as yet our supporters do not
realize that DAILY WORKER
agent is one of the most important
posts in our party.
For a Labor Party.
''If our labor party campaign, in
junction fight and membership drive,
ETC., are to be successful our energy
must be put into the job of building
gan approximating in influence the
the Daily into a mass Communist or
L'Humanite in France"
Edward Royce, business manager
of The DAILY WORKER, in report
ing told of the financial difficulties of
the paper and concluded by pointing
out that "you in the units are the
support no financial wizard can keep
backbone of the paper. Without your
alive the Daily.
Organize Groups.
Go back to your units, organize
around yourselves a group of devoted
comrades who will carry on the every
day work of building our paper into
a real mass organ. Such is cadre
of workers will always be ready to
pump any emergency and thus keep
our paper always on the living line"
The final speaker was A. Ravich,
circulation and advertising manager
who emphasized the many important
details attached to the work. "No
affair held by the party" he contin-
ued, "or any sympathetic organiza-
ton should be without it's advertise
ment in our paper. All comrades in
language organization should popu-
larize the idea of buying The DAILY
WORKER along with their language
papers.
Discussion Follows.
A discussion followed in which one
third of those present participated
Helpful criticism was made by both
editorial and managerial representa-
tives. The chairman selected the
most important points and formu-
lated them into the following motion
which was adopted unanimously:
This conference resolves that each
unit, subsection and section DAILY
WORKER agent must give full time
to the major Party task of building
the Daily. That special drive be
made for increased circulation, sub
scription and advertising. ~
The meeting concluded with an an
nouncement that all forces were to be
modified for the first annual DAILY
WORKER and Freiheit ball at Madi
son Square Garden Dec. II.
