Needle Trade Defense

At the concert arranged by the
Joint Defense and Relief Committee
to take place July 16 in the Coney
Island Stadium, 10000 workers will
meet to express their protest against
the Sigman-McGrady-Woll clique and
to support the striking furriers and
the imprisoned needle trades workers.
Once more the workers of New York
will show the Forward and it's gang
that they are with the Joint Boards
of the Furriers and Cloakmakers
Unions. In itself the concert will be
the best Of the season. The New
York Symphony Orchestra of 100 will
participate. Emo Rape, interna-
tionally known, will conduct. Alexis
Kosloff, former, ballet master Of the
Russian Imperial Theatre, with his
famous ballet, viii produce "Prince
Igor" Those who saw. Kosloff at the
Stadium last year will surely not miss
this opportunity to see him at his
best. Tickets are S1.00 and $500 for
reserved seats and can be gotten at
the Joint Defense and Relief Com
mittee, al Union Square, Room TIA.

244 Times 25.
A whole line of 244 pickets was
surrounded by the police and dragged
off to court Monday morning. This
move on the part of the police had no
effect on the spirit of the workers.
The broken ranks were repaired and
the arrested workers replaced by hun
dreds of other pickets. The trial was
postponed until Wednesday and bail
of $25 was fixed for each of the ar
rested workers. This money had to
be raised in one day. Such occur
rences take place daily. The police
and the right wing traitors are de-
termined to exhaust the treasury of
the union so that the workers will be
compelled to submit. Such a time is,
however, far distant. The working
masses stand solidly behind the strik-
ing furriers and steadily supply the
ammunition to help them in their
struggle.
$121.00 was collected at a mass
meeting of the Passaic Workers Gull
ture Club which was held Friday. A
committee Of s was elected to con-
tinue the work for the Defense Com
mittee. Kaplan of the CloalSmakers

Friday evening. Branch No. 1888

vanzetti's Statement Published.

Vanzetti's mastery statement to
Gov. Fuller, and the six affidavits
by newspapermen and others against
Judge Webster Thayer are being dis
tributed in pamphlet form by the
Sacco-Vanzetti Defense Committee.
The pamphlet is entitled "Massachu-
sets Reputation at Stakew
The affidavits all tell how the
Judge ranted against the defendants
in club room, restaurant and railroad
coach during the trial period: "Those
bastards" was one Of the judges
mild explosives.
John Nicholas Bethel, who reported
the trial for the Federated Press;
Frank P. Sibley, veteran of the Bos-
ton Globe; Elisabeth Bernkopf, of the
International News Service; Robert
Benchley, Of Life magazine; Mrs. Lois
B. Rantoul, Of the Boston Federation
of Churches and George U. Croker,
rich University Club man, made the
affidavits. Their sworn statements
now in Fuller's hands-all serve to
show Thayer was too bitterly biased
to give the two Italian radicals fair
trial.

RAILROAD AGENT RISKED
LIFE TO SAFE CHILD

Heroism has just come to light
on the part of Willard Carlisle, the
D., M. & V. Railroad station agent
at Harbeson, who on November %
saved the life of Harry Veasey, the
five-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. G..
Edward Veasey, of that town, when
he dived under a moving freight car
and pushed the child to safety at
the risk of his own life. The child
had wandered over to the railroad
siding and sat down between the
rails, near the end of two freight
cars. Mr.. Carlisle happened on the
scene just as another car bumped
against the two cars and knocked
the lad over, and the agent quickly
jumped beneath the moving cars
and rescued the child and barely
escaped himself.
Silas ]. Warrington, grandfather
of the child, wrote to the superin-
tendent's Office, highly commencing
Mr.. Carlisle's heroism.
