military occupation; and the unlaw-
full extension of the Treaty of 1915"
The fundamental question at pres
ent, Du Bots continued, is the eco
noInic question. The attempt is now
being made to complete the enslave-
ment of the Haitian workers by GUST
ing them from the land and forcing
them into wage-slavery, he said.
Imperialism Save Everywhere.
The role of modern Imperialism
was explained by Robert Minor, edi-
tor of The DAILY WORKER, who
described the various phases of i'm
perialism in Asia, India, Africa and
China. Color, Minor said, was but a
pretext used by the exploiters every
where. In such states as Louisiana,
Alabama and Tennessee, he pointed
out, Negro and white workers are ex-
plotted with equal intensity.
Zone hundred and sixty million
workers in the Soviet Union have
succeeded in freeing themselves from
slavery, and 400,000,000 Chinese
workers will ultimately be free with
the consummation of the Chinese
Revolution" he said.
Other speakers were Henry Rose
mond, of the Haitian Patriotic Union,
L. T. De Becker, secretary of the
Committee on Haiti, Madame Theo-
dora Holly, school inspector of Haiti,
and Richard Moore of the American
Negro Labor Congress.
Harriet Silverman, secretary Of the
New York Branch of the All-America
Anti-Imperialist League, who presid-
ed at the meeting, said that the local
branch was striving to build up its
work along the lines Of the national
organization, making special efforts
to recruit organized workers in the
New York labor unions.

WHITE PLAINS, April 15.-The
White Plains local of the Journey
men BARRIERS Union, on strike since
last Monday reached an agreement
with the Master BARRIERS Association
and went back to work yesterday,

The original demands of the strik-

week and larger percentage of the
receipts earned by each chair. The
workers also gained part of the per-
eentage increase they demanded. The
rest of the demands have been given
over for Arbitration" to the State
Board of Arbitration by the union

Wall St. Puppets Won't
Recognize u. S. S. r.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-That
the republican party and the Coolidge
administration will persist in oppos-
ing relations with the present re-
gime in Russia" was made clear in q
statement by Secretary of State KEEL
logg and issued by Chairman Butler
of the Republican National Com
mittee.
Seconding the policy of the tory
government in Britain which broke
off diplomatic relations with the Sow
let Union, Kellogg declared that the
Experiences of various governments
which have recognized and entered
into relations with the Soviet regime
have demonstrated conclusively the
wisdom of the policy of the United
States"
The struggle Of Latin American
and Chinese workers against "the
government of the United States"
was cited as one of the reasons for
the administration policy.

POLICE TERRORIzE
FRUIT STRIKERS
Club Woman Speaker
7 Pickets Arrested

Despite the police terror against
the strike of the retail fruit store
clerks who are fighting since last
Monday for the recognition of their
union, the workers militancy has
succeeded in breaking up the attempt
of their employers to organize a
bosses association, and in signing
agreements with 81 of the largest
stores in the Bronx.
Police Terror Fails.
For the past few days the police
have tried by mass arrests of pickets
and by breaking up open air meetings
called for the strikers, to break the
morale of the clerks, most of whom
are young workers. They succeeded,
however, only in increasing their
numbers.
An open air meeting held on the
corner of 155th st. and Prospect Ave,
was broken up when about dozen
police charged the crowd and the
speakers with swinging clubs. Mrs.
Nevins, one of the speakers for the
United Council of Working Glass
Women, was so badly dubbed as to
need treatment from a physician.
This organization of working women
has been assisting the strikers by
modifying sentiment against the non
union fruit stores. The strikers sue
ceeded, however, in holding a mon
ster open air meeting near the non
union stores in the Claremont Park
way and Bathgate Ave. neighbor-
hoods.
Several days ago representatives
sent from the strike headquarters of
the union at the Bronx Lyceum, 1860
Third Ave, had appeared before a
meeting of the Bronx section of the
Young Workers (Communist) League
to appeal for assistance in carrying
on the struggle against the non-union
bosses there. Approximately 40 mem
bers of the League volunteered to go
on picket duty for the strikers.
A statement made by the strike
leadership declares that the services
rendered them by the Young Work
ers League was inestimable. The
Young Pioneers is also participating
in the picketing, the union represen-
tative stated.
Seven more pickets were arrested
while picketing the scab stores on AL
lerton and Prospect AYES. Four were
dismissed when they came up later
in the night court, and three others,
two OF whom are members of the
Young Workers League, are to be
tried Monday.

It is The DAILY WORKER which

the unorganized coal fields AS the

have come to look upon The DAILY

loyal ally in the struggle with the
mine bosses, the workers of the I'M
organized fields will learn to depend
upon their militant daily paper for
direction and encouragement in the
battle upon which they are entering.
This means that hundreds of free
subscriptions will be needed for these
new forces of striking miners. The

has become so great that the miners
are unable to pay for their subscrip-

their most vital necessity. 1t has be-

Court Denies Appeal
to Left Wing Furriers

Continued from Pnqe Onel
year ago, and originally included
under charges of criminal assault the
two leaders of the furriers, Ben Gold

however, when the evidence furnished
by the right wing and the American
Federation of Labor officialdom was
not sufficient to Justify a verdict Of
guilty from the prejudiced jury Of
local business men.
The sentenced workers were framed
up with having destroyed property,
and assaulted two employers engaged
in operating a scab shop in Mineola
during the general strike in 1926,
when the furriers were victorious in
obtaining the 40-hour week and other
concessions from the employers.
In spite of the fact that the steno-
