ing the attack are developed as fol-
lows, according to testimony. Six
members of the Butchers Union
were expelled from membership be-
cause of their demand that the fl
nances of the union be Investigated.
The expulsion was followed up by
an immediate attempt to remove
them and all other left wingers
from their jobs.
Thugs Attack.
In conducting this expulsion cam
paign, thugs were sent to the but
cher shop of A. Oxman, 500 Prospect
Ave-, to order the employer to de-
prive Louis Lassowitz, left winger
from his means of livelihood. The
employer refused to heed the order
whereupon the gangsters threatened
the workers that if they came back
later to find him still at work she
would be carried out"
Lassowitz then called up several
friends of his and William Schiffrin
and Max Kluger, butcher worker,
came around to the shop to protect
their fellow-worker from the right
wing hirelings. On reaching the
shop, Schiffrin and Kluger, finding
no sign of the gang near the butcher
shop, walked out on the avenue to
go home. On reaching Beck St.
and Johns Ave. they suddenly saw
large closed car pull to the curb
and five of the six men in the car
jumped out and rushed toward the
two workers with drawn knives.
Kluger had time to run, but not
Schiffrin, who was forced against
the wall Of a building when he
backed away.
Protests Himself.
Desperately trying to save him
self from the ferocious onslaught of
the five knife-wielding thugs, Schif-
frin drew a penknife and swung it
back and forth before him to keep
off the rapidly closing circle of cut
throats.
Harry Silver, leader of the attack
ing squad, came in too close and re-
ceived a wound above the heart,
from which he died later in the Lin
coin Hospital. Another of Silver's
men received cut on the arm when
he, too. lunged forward with his
knife.
Henry o. Kahn and Joseph Brod-
sky were the attorneys of the de-
PENDANTS, and Samuel Markewitz,
notorious right wing hireling, was
trying to frame up murder barge
against Schiffrin and his COM
panions.
