Mass Arrests: Press Is
Banned
'(Red Aid Press Service)


SOFIA. Bulgaria, (By MaiD.-
In the last mass arrests here the
members of the Central Committee
of the Working Youth League were
arrested. With this the publication
of the Leagues organ, "Mladeschka
Iskra," is made impossible.
The terror is directed especially
AGAINST the left youth movement,
which is threatened with great
danger. The impartial working
newspaper, "Maldeschka
Duma." has not appeared since Sep
temher, since every number has been
corfiscated. The arrested editor of 3
this newspaper was released only
after heated trial. He was hardly
released from prison when another
process was started against him. 2
The editor of the student paper,
"Studentska Tribuna," was sus-
pended from classes for a year bys
the professors. No ground for this
action was given. The reason is
that his paper was thoroughly anti
fascist.

Philadelphia Forum
to Meet in Spite of
Attacks of Police

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. "a
Richard B. Moore, national organ
izcr Of the American Negro Labor
Congress, will speak at the Work
ers Forum in this city on Sunday
night on the subject, "How Will the
Breakup of the Solid South Affect
the Negroes The forum is held
at the Grand Fraternity Hall, 1926
Arch ST., every Sunday night.
This meeting is Of more than usual
significance because the Philadel-
phia police have tried to break up
the forum. On Nov. 9, they tried
to smash the meeting in celebration
Of the eleventh anniversary of the
Russian Revolution, by keeping out
every one who they claimed was
under twenty-one years of age.
Last Sunday they forbade the
holding Of the forum by ordering the
owners of the hall, where the forum
has been held for the past four
years, not to allow the meeting with
out special police permit. The
forum was held, however, despite the
attempt Of the police to break it up.
When Police Superintendent Mills
saw that the meetings would con-
tinue, he issued a permit for the
lecture this Sunday. A big attend
ance is expected to demonstrate to
the police that the workers of this
city are determined to defend their
meetings.

USSR REALIZES FULL
PROGRAM IN 1Q27-28

MOSCOW (By Mail.)-On the

the Russian Revolution the press re-
views the activity during the last
year in relation to the economic,

posed in the manifesto of the Cen
trail Executive Committee of the
y. S. s. R. at the 10th anniversary
of the October Revolution.

nouncing an increase of the expendi-
ture by the State Budget on con-
struction Of houses for workmen in

kov, Leningrad, Don Basin and
other industrial regions.
In accordance with instructions of

the sluggers are out on $1,000 bail

The stubbornness with which the
workers in this shop picketed the
shop enraged the labor-hating en-
ployers, who retaliated by plotting
a deadly assault on the unprepared
workers.
Severe Injuries.
Before the workers could gather
TO defend themselves, Harry Kar-
ashian sustained a fractured jaw
and two broken teeth, Charles Bal
ish, an old man, had his head cut
open and Louis Habid had his hand
broken by blow from. an iron bar.
Lawyer Wax was brought down
to the strikers mass meeting today
by Fred Hoelscher, in order to de-
fend the officialdon against the
charge of the left wing that the
union chiefs made an agreement
with the police guaranteeing them
obedience to all their demands on
restriction of picketing activities.
Lawyer Wax waxed eloquent in his
denials Of the existence of any deals
with the police.
But these denials nevertheless did
not prevent Organizer Yanerelli
from declaring in report he made
later that the vicious police thug
stationed at the shop he was re-
porting about would be removed
from his post if the union would
say one word to the chief of police.
Such illusions, the left wing
workers pointed out, are a danger
to the strike and are among the
reasons for the workers cond ana
ton of the policies of the official
dom in conducting the strike. In
stead of making plans for a militant
struggle, the bureaucrats believe
that the chief of police is "impar-
tial."
Right Wing Speakers Jeered.
After all the extensive labors of
Louis Stein, right winger, who re-
placed Gertrude Mueller in charge
OF providing speakers for the mass
meeting, he finally obtained a
speaker" who was jeered off the
platform before he had finished
ladling out his driyel
After the left wing had been ar
bitrarily remo,ed from this impor-
tant committee, the committee did
not provide any speakers for almost
the entire week, with the e cuse
that the speakers failed to keep
their appointments and that speak
ers are not needed anyway. The
speaker Stein finally succeeded in
obtaining was one Sanwil, Phila-
delphia head of the socialist-labor
party, who when he reached the
platform, Immediately began an at
tack on the left wing and it's fol-
lowers, who are an overwhelming
majority of the membership.
AS soon as he began to criticise
the left wing sympathizers for their
demand that militant speakers be
provided regularly, the membership
decided they had had enough of him
and forced him to leave the plat
form.
