A committee of colored citizens
Submitted an enquiry to the Rich
mnd City Democratic Committee
as 10 whether they would be per-
mitted to participate ina the local
Democratic primary in April. UP
To this time, no intimaSnon as to the
uosition of that organization upon
this phase of the subject has been
made known. We thought at the
time that the submission Of the
question was mistake and showed
a weakness on the part of the
oa,estioners. 1t might have been
submitted to the City Attorney or
to the Attorney General of Virginia.
The only thing to do is to comply
with the requirements of the Demo-
cratic Party and proceed to eXer-
else. the right to vote.
The matter then automatically
comes before the Judge of the
Hastings Court on an appeal and
he will be ready at once to rule
ON the case. 1t is understood that
the Supreme Court IF the United
States has already ruled on this
question. So far as we are able
to- ascertain, many colored people
are. ready to vote for some one Of
the three candidates for the mayor
atty and if talk means anything,
the. colored vote is badly split
amongst all of them.

COMMUNISTS WIN
In SCOTCH MINE
UNION ELECTION
Win Six Out Of Seven
Positions in Fife
BY ]. X. CAMPBELL.

LONDON, (By MaiD 1.-THE recent
results Of the elections in the Fife
mining area in Scotland illustrate the
growing influence Of the Communist
Party over the Scottish miners. Seven
posts were open for election, two per-
manent officials Tor agents) and five
representatives from the Fife Miners,
Union to the Scottish Miners Exc
cutive. The results of a series of
Of the workers participated. show
that two Communists have been elect
ed to the permanent officials posts
and four Communists and one left
winger to the post of Fife represent
5atives ON the Scottish executive.
This result is due to a very con-
siderable extent to the excellent work
performed by the Party in this area
during the miners lockout, when the
actual leadership of the workers in
the struggle was in the hands of the
Communist Party and sympathetic
left wing workers, the right wingers
cutting no figure in the struggle at
all.
The voting for those posts COM
nenced last June, and during the close
of the first vote the right wing
launched their usual attacks on the
Communists for fraction work and
intrigue within the union. A copy of
a Communist fraction circular con-
tanning instructions to delegates at
tending the County Monthly Dele
gate Meeting was circulated and it
was claimed that this circular showed
quite clearly that the Communists
were obeying the dictates of po
litical party and not the dictates of
the rank and file of the union. The
various questions raised by tie cir
cular were, however, questions in
which the miners themselves were in
terested and of which they approved
So far from the production of this
circular having bad effect it helped
the Party, inasmuch as it showed that
the Party representatives were work
ing in an organized fashion to carry
through the policy on which they
i, were elected. The result OF the first
vote that was taken showed that the
Communists headed the list of votes
for the two permanent officials, and
three Communists headed the list for
the five posts on the Scottish Exc
cutive,

Cretzianu Tries TO
Shift Pogronl Blame

George Cretzianu, the Rumanian
minister to the United States, has at
tempted to justify the atrocities
which his government is charged with
having melted during the recent po-
groms in Pennsylvania.
Writing to Representative Siro-
witch who recently introduced a reso-
luton in congress calling for an AFRO
cation of the treaty between the
United States and Rumania, Cret-
zianu attempted to place the sole
blame for the pogroms on the stu
dents. At the same time, he admitted
that many of them had been liberated
or had received trivial sentences.
Commenting on Cretzianu's eva
sions, Leo Wolfson, president of the
United Rumanian Jews of America,
said, "What / resent in Cretzianu's
letter is the attempt to place the en-
tire unfortunate matter on a basis
which is far from the real truth.
While some students have beer sem
fenced most of those who have been
arrested have been freed as hereto

MOSCOW, BY Nall 1.-THE meeting
of active workers of the Leningrad
organization of the Communist Party
of the Soviet Union which was at

decisions of the XIV Congress and de-
clared them to be correct and COM

working class. 49,. .......

ments of the Zinoviev-Kamenev group

remained loyal to their views, the
meeting is of the opinion that an even
more energetic struggle be carried or
against them than before and that in
the event of them developing an anti
Party and anti-Soviet activity, all the
necessary self-preservation measures
provided by proletarian dictatorship
be applied against them"
