COURT FIGHT ON
PLANNED
Conference To Prepare
Plan of Action

The fight being carried on by the
Public Committee on Power against
the 81 900, 100000 merger of the
Consolidated Gas Company of New
York and the Brooklyn Edison Com
pany, recently upheld by the Public
Service Commission, will be pre-
pared for court action today.
Corporation Counsel Nicholson,
John Bauer, New York City's power
expert, and Morris L. Ernst, coun-
sci to the Public Committee on
Power, which has opposed the mer-
ger for over month, will hold
conference today to determine their
plan of action in the fight against
the commissions recent ruling.
1t was learned yesterday that the
formal order approving the merger
had been sent out to the two COM
panies involved by the Public Ser
vice Commission in Albany. Not a
word, however, had been sent to the
city or to the Public Committee on
Power, whose protest was denied
hearing because of the commissions
ruling that no one was entitled to
a hearing who owned no stock in
either of the corporations.

CAP WORKERS IN
PROTEST RALLY
Injunction President Is
Condemned at Meet

Enthusiastic applause from the
crowded Webster Hall, 18th St. and
Third Ave, greeted the speakers
sharp condemnation of the union
wrecking campaign of Max Zarit-
sky, president of the International
Cloth Hat, Cap and Millinery Work
ers' Union, at the protest meeting
held last night by the Cap and Mil
linery section of the Trade Union
Educational League.
The hundreds attending despite be-
ing threatened with loss of job, ex-
pressed, by the unanimous passage
of a resolution and by the senti-
ment displayed turnout, their de-
termination to put a halt to the
right wings transformation of
their organization into company
union. The officialdom had caused
the discharge of workers for their
part in preparing the meeting.
Accusing more indignation than
any other particular issue, was the
recent act of the socialist official
dom in applying for an injunction
to a Massachusetts court against
the left wing leaders of the Bos-
ton Local Z. Not only did they con-
denim the step of asking for an in
junction, which is the bosses wea-
pom against the workers, in an in
tra-union fight, but the deliberate
application for such a writ to the
murderers of cco-Vanzetti, came
in for the hottest denunciation.
Speakers at the meeting were
H. SAFER and J. Jukovsky, left wing
leaders Of the capmakers here, and
j. Miller, manager of Boston Lo-
cal 7.
The meeting demanded an imme.
date halt to the right wing policy
of expulsion of militants and the
reinstatement of expelled locals anc
individuals. They all pledged them
selves to increase the intensity OF
the struggle against Zaritsky and
his clique till their ends are gained
and in order to safeguard the unior
conditions in the shops.

PROTES T'ACAINST
FASCIST TREATY
Croatian Peasants Hit
Yugoslav Parliament

BELGRADE Iugoslavia, Aug.
Is (UP).-The Skupschtina to-
night ratified the treaty of Nettuno
after a tumultuous session. Rati-
fication of the treaty, which had
been violently opposed by the CrOa-
tians, started demonstrations at
Zagreb and other cities which au-
thorities feared might grow to ser
ious disturbances.
Opposition to the convention of
the Nettuno treaty had caused con-
tinued friction in the Skupschtina
(parliament) and among the Croa-
tians, who contended their rights
were endangered. Although Ste
phen Raditch, who died last week of
wounds received in a shooting fray
in the parliament chambers, had
sought to bring a peaceful settle
ment which would unite the peas
ant forces, his death had further
strained the situation.
Heavy guards were placed in
Zagreb after the death of Raditch
to prevent any disturbance and it
appeared the crisis might be
passed without violence on the part
of the peasants who charged the
shooting of their leader was a poll
teal move.
The Skupschtina ratification
vote tonight, however, aroused VIC
lent protests. The full extent OF
demonstrations reported at Zagreb
could not be learned.
Consideration of the Nettuno
treaty started early tonight when
Deputy Foreign Minister Shumen-
kovitch recommended ratification in
a speech in the Skupschtina. His
words were the signal for Interrupt
tions by peasant party leaders.
Twice he was forced to halt when
the oppositionists pounded the tops
of their desks and shouted.

ADDRESS YOUNG
NEGRO WORKERS
League Is Conducting
Enthusiastic Meets

More than 400 Negro workers
crowded the corner of both and
Seventh Ave. for more than two
hours Tuesday night, listening to
speakers representing the Harlem
unit of the Young Workers (Com-
munist1 League.
The audience listened attentive
ly while Comrades Slipyan, Lam
port, Novzen, and Albert and Ida
Eisman portrayed the conditions
and struggles of the young and
adult workers of this country, and
dealt especially with the horrible
conditions of the millions of Negro
workers. The most interesting part
of the meeting, however, was when
Comrade Brody mounted the plat
form to answer questions. Despite
the attempts of Garveyites to heekle
and keep our message from the
workers, the convincing arguments
OF the speakers soon succeeded in
winning the overwhelming sympa-
thy of the crowd. Later, when the
speaker read the special Negro de-
mands from the platform of the
Workers (Communist) Party, they
were received with prolonged and
enthusiastic applause.
The speaker answered questions
put to him on Africa for the Negro,
Tammany and the Negro, etc. He
unmasked the republican party by
denunciating Hoover's part in sell
ing out Liberia to the Firestone
Rubber interests. He also men
toned the segregation of the Negro
delegates at the Houston conven-
ton, and pointed out that the DEM
ocratic platform had not a single
word on the conditions of the Ne
groes.
The meeting adjourned in great
enthusiasm, especially when the
speaker announced that the League
would be back on the same corner
this Friday. The fact that a po-
liceman is necessary to clear the
traffic during our meetings is an
indication of the prestige the Y. w.
L. is gaining in the greatest segre-
gated area of Negroes in the
United States. Eighty platforms of
the Party and two hundred copies
of the Young Worker were sold at
the last three meetings.
