They are employed at miserable

white fellow-workers. The rents
are much higher for the Negroes
than for the whites and only the
shacks are rented to them. A home

family for twenty dollars is rented
to Negro for % or 80 dollars. This

Several thousand workers marched
through the streets of Bogota as a

Both liberals and socialists are

government declares present, ex-

Communist leaders point out that
the bill is aimed especially at strike
activities and at the fight against
American imperialism, which has
taken on great impetus due to the
military intervention of the United
States in Nicaragua and i'll Hon
duras, and to the recent interven-
ton of Kellogg in Colombia to pro-
tect the American oil interests.

Three hundred are delegated to at

risky to sell on credit to these poor
people.
The Negro workers of Trenton
can now see the illusion of the CAPT
talist, the democratic and republi-
can parties. They know that the
republicans as we'll as the democrats
have nothing in common with them.
They now can see the sinister pur-
pose of the so-called "humani-
tarians" of freeing them from their
southern masters. They can see
that it was their labor that the
north fought for. Only the masters
changed hands. They are still slaves
under different circumstances. I'm
der their southern masters, at least,
their welfare was cared for. Their
existence was assured. Food, cloth
ing and shelter were provided. I'm
der their present masters, they are
at their own mercy.

Hungary Appeals to
Kellogg for His Aid

WASHINGTON, Oct. -. - The
bloody Hungarian government ex-
pressed its willingness to adhere to
the Kellogg pact in a note made
public To-Day, but hoped that the
United States government would
provide means for settling disputes
such as over the war treaty Hun
gary had to syn, without force.
The note .uated that the pact to
foutlaw war would be entirely inef-
fective unless some new way were
provided to settle intern :ional dis
putes.

to come. Mill organizations must
be built up as soon as possible. The
strike committee must be trans
formed to the city executive commit
tee of the local union, every step
must be taken to build a sound stable
structure that will be able to carry
on the obligations resting on the
new union. For this purpose all
workers should report to the union
headquarters at once just where they
are working so that the mill units
can be established and organization
work begun.
Build Union"
"That National Council calls on
the workers to build the union as
the only guarantee that the employ
ers will not cut wages again. In
deed there is every indication that
this is the understanding between
the labor officials of the textile coun-
Gil and the bosses, that wages will
be cut again and a great speed-up
introduced. Only the New Bedford
Textile Workers Union, strong and
well established will be able to guar
antee that the bosses will not again
worsen conditions and that the work
ers will be able to improve their
standards.
eve also wish to point out that
the ruling class means to Jail and
imprison all of the active workers
and organizers of the new union. On
November their trial takes place.
We call on all the workers to rally
to the defence of the workers i'm
prisoned during the strike, to build
powerful movement that will free
our best fighters for union work.
"The relief must also be main
tanned. After the strike there will
be hundreds if not thousands of
workers in great need of relief. The
union must do all in it's power to
see to it that the relief stores are
maintained and that all workers in
need are provided with the neces-
stiles of life.
"The New Bedford strike has
shown to the textile workers again
the powerful enemies that the work
ers have to overcome. The National
Textile Workers Union pledges its
utmost to carry on this class strug-
gle to the end, until the whole cap
italist system of exploitation and
oppression is finally ended. Textile
Workers of New Bedford unite!"

On his return from Chile, the re-

of fascism at a luncheon presided
over by the vice president of the Ana

man of the Chile-American Associa-
ton. anaconda Copper Co. has

ly United States capital" 81 have

the present regime" he said, "be-
cause it is fair toward foreign in
vestors and enterprise. I predict a
great future for Chile" He com
pared the fascist regime of Chile
with that of the United States and
was pleased to find similarities.
During Golfers speech a news
cable message from Chile was de-
livered to him, which he interpreted
as meaning that amnesty had been
decreed for all exiles from Chile and
all deported men may return.
Order Ambiguous.
There was no amnesty, however,
nor any other measure in favor of
the political exiles. The n ister of
interior simply made a statement in
these ambiguous words: "Since the
order and the tranquility of the re-
public are completely consolidated,
the government declares that there
are no Chileans expelled from the
national territory and that conse-
quently nobody outside of the from
tiers of Chile has the right to call
himself a Chilean exile"
If this means anything it can only
mean either that all bourgeois poll
ticians who opposed Ibanez and were
sent out of Chile lost their citizen
ship in the manner of fascist Italy
or that they may come back if they
promise to be good. Furthermore
