cause he was busy defending work

sent a representative to secure
postponement of the trial. Such
postponement is a legal right of
every defendant and is never denied
by the court. But Magistrate CLAM

the law of his own court and SEN
fenced Katz to ten days.
Buitenkant at once tried to secure
a writ of habeas corpus and then a
certificate of reasonable doubt from
the Supreme Court, but both were
Ganied and the young worker was
compelled to serve his term.
On the occasion of Katz's release

Hit Capitalist Court.
"The arbitrary sentencing of
Joseph Katz without permitting him
the legal right Of every defendant
to have lawyer rpresent him shows
to what lengths the capitalist
courts will go in their attack on
workers. This unprecedented action
of Magistrate Glanzmyer was fully
sustained by Judge Ingraham, of the
State Supreme Court.
"The New York Section of the In
ternational Labor Defense condemns
this action which is typical of the
sort of Justice that workers receive
at the hands of the boss courts. We
call upon all class-conscious work
ers to support the fight of the I. L.

them by the instruments of the
bosses. Only by presenting fight
ing mass front under the leadership

the courts any modification of their
policy of victimization of militant

All Rumania is agog at the proof

the Bratianu brothers now supplant-

trench himself by exposing his pre-
decessors.
When Maniu's cabinet ministers

$55,000,000) to pay, along with

Then they looked further and
found that many persons who died
long ago and others who were never
born have been drawing salaries
regularly and giving receipts for
their salaries, while many civil SER
vice workers for the government de-
partments had been forced to work
without wages. In addition, many
of Bratianus friends, who held no
government office at all, neverthe-
less have been furnished by the gov
eminent with expensive automobiles
and plenty of money on which they
have lived luxuriously.
Newspapers who support the past
regime, for cash, attack the expos
ures as improper" and not accord
ing to the best traditions" as it has
always been the custom that a new
government says nothing about the
graft of the past one.

The Bratianu clique that is called
the Liberal Party, is countering the
attack on them by sending agents
among, the peasantry to incite po-
grors against the Jews, hoping to
embarrass Maniu's efforts to get a
foreign loan from Jewish bankers
and to bring a conflict between
Manu- and the peasants, who are
taught by their Greek Catholic
priests that killing Jews is a holy
act.

A crowded membership meeting

to prepare the union for the calling

at about the same time the workers
in the dress industry call their
strike.
With the former thorough union
ization of the industry smashed by
the union-wrecking attacks of the
right wing dual union officialdom
and bosses, the workers in these
trades have seen their union stand
ards driven lower and lower.
However, the valiant struggle of
the workers who retained member
ship in the union, has kept the en-
ployers from completely annihilat-
ing the organization. Now the crest
of the attacks against the union has
been passed and the workers are
preparing counter offensive for

BERLIN, Nov. 14.-The metal

Ruhr districts have, through their
Fighting Committee established in
defiance of the trade union bureau
Gratis, decided that the situation
caused by the adverse verdict of the
Duisburg Labor Court demands an
intensification of the work, mass
picketing, money collections for re-
lief and mass meetings to insure
solidarity.
1t is necessary, according to the
Fighting Committee, to rouse the
workers and Illustrate the treason
planned by the reformists. A dele
cation of metal workers is visiting

posals in the reichstag for govern

Trade Union Bureaucrats.
Brandes, the chairman of the
Metal Workers Union, a socialist
leader, refused to see the delegation
until told that a report on his con-
duct would be published. Then he
evaded the question of relief.
The social democratic reichstag
deputy, Metz, also a leader of the
Metal Workers Union, refused any
cooperation with the unorganized
workers. (only about 100000 out Of
the $4,000 are organized). But
Metz had to admit that it is impos-
sible to make an successful struggle
without the unorganized.

between the employers and the trade
