INJURIES TWENTY
Brakes Failed; Begin
Investigation"

At least twenty beach-bound work
ers were injured when defective
brakes sent a Long Island Railroad
train crashing into terminal bump
er at Long Beach yesterday noon.
Motorman Charles Wolfort was at
the controls as the 11-car train
swung along the slight grade at the
end of the branch line to the heavy
concrete and metal bumpers. He ap-
piled the brakes in good time, but
they failed to hold.
The grinding shock Immediately
threw the packed train into a panic,
and the force Of the crash was so
strong that the bumper was torn
loose from its setting and jammed
into Is inches Of the ground. The
front of the first car was crushed.
Hastily improvised first aid sta
lions were organized on the plat
form. Many women were being
treated for more than two hours
after the crash.
The traditional investigation was
yesterday begun by the Public Serv-
ice Commission inspectors. Long
Beach police held the motorman for
questioning, although he showed that
the accident was not, as the railroad
companies always seek to establish,
due to "man power failure" but de-
fective breaks.

Building Crash Buries
Workers and Passerby

Ten workers, including one passer-
by, were seriously injured yesterday,
by the collapse of three-story
building on the southwest corner of
23rd st. and Eighth Ave. The ac-
cident was due to the practice of
avaricious landlords who were trying
to squeeze more profits out of an
old tenement house by patching it
up so that they could charge higher
rents when the new subway is COM
pleted. The old building gave way
without moments notice, burying
the workers in its debris.
Working three hours with firemen
and policemen, workers who escaped
unscathed succeeded in rescuing nine
of the victims. A sky-pilot Of the
Church of St. Columbia was on the
job waiting to give the last rites to
any worker removed and at the same
time to cover up the criminal greed
of the landlords by attributing the
incidend to God. The injured were

since they both are subjected to the
same conditions of speed-up, long
hours and low wages. The tradition
of mental inferiority of Negroes is
pure fiction without any scientific
basis, Dunno said, adding that Com
munists stand for full social and
political equality for all races. 1t is
the policy of the capitalists to stir
up racial prejudice, and thus divide
and weaken the forces of the prole-
tariat, he said.
"White workers must fight with
Negroes against the system of jim
crowism," he said. "Our Party
makes no distinction between races
except that in the South Commu-
nists fight harder for the Negro
workers because they suffer greater
exploitation and persecution. Only
solidarity of the workers of all
races throughout the world will
smash the capitalist system Of ex-
ploitation and oppression and estab-
fish a workers and farmers gov
ernment."
Among the questions asked, was
one about intermarriage. Dunno re-
piled that Communists do net oppose
intermarriage. That the standard
question intended to end all argu-
ment on the Negro question is 'do
you want your sister to marry a
Negro?" Dunno replied that his sis
ter would have to decide for herself,
but added II would rather have her
marry a militant, courageous Negro
worker than throw herself away on
a white bum"
At this point, one man, socialist
and white chauvinist in one, together
with skilled worker, rose and tried
to start a walkout. Only ten out of
nearly 200 left the hall, and several
later returned. DUNES position was
applauded overwhelmingly by the
majority of the Southern workers
present.
The Charlotte Observer featured
part Of the speech which advocated
race equality, brazenly misquoting
him. The Observers story gave the
impression that the audience was
hostile and offended, stating that a
fourth of the audience walked out.
Workers who were present brand
this as deliberate lie.
Because of the great interest man.
ifested by workmen who approached
Dunno after the meeting, he agreed
to give a series Of lectures. Daisy
