said Martin, "even with no defense
evidence submitted, l am convinced
that the verdict would have been
unanimous for acquittal. 1t seemed
to US that the cross examination of
the states witnesses completely
wrecked all the points the prosecu-
ton was trying to make.
"The black hundreds organized
last night by Major Bulwinkle, So
licitor Carpenter and the Manville-
Jenckes Co., is their reaction to the
growing power of the union and the
weakness of their case" he con-
tinued. "They now again resort to
armed violence in their attempt to
drive the union out and the textile
workers into greater slavery.
"The black hundreds murderous
attack on Organizer Wells, Saylor
and Lell, their violence to other
workers who crossed their path
when they swept from Gastcnia to
Bessemer and then to Charlotte in
the attack upon the union, is being
answered through greater organ
ization drive in CASTOR County and
all over the South.
"No death chair, mob violence,

The National Textile Workers is

Southern workers and the Northern
workers, and will lead in the strug-
gle for the eight-hour day, for

"This gang violence absolutely
proves the necessity of self defense
on June 7 and today. This neces-
sity not only still exists, out is
proved by the armed invasion of
Charlotte by the organized mill
bosses and professional thugs with
the apparent cooperation of the po-
lice.
"The matter of criminal proceed
ings has been referred to the unions

speed" Oehler declared.

5 to 20 per cent. Originally the
employers demanded the cut be 25
per cent. The union heads claim
that by reducing the cut to 20 per
cent the workers have won vic
tory. Instead of fighting against
wage reductions the officials are
aiding the employers in putting
through their program of wage
cuts and more profits for the manu-
facturers.
The militant union workers are
determined to fight against the
wage cutting and sell-out program
of the officialdom headed by Fuchs.

SCOTT NEARING
WILL TEACH AT
WORKERS SCHOOL
US. Imperialism Given
on Wednesday Nights

Scott Nearing, one of the most
popular lecturers and teachers in
the labor movement, will give two
very interesting courses at the
Workers School during the coming
Fall Term.
Course on Imperialism.
One course, "The Development
and Extent of American Imperial
ISM" to be given every Wednesday,
from $50 to $3.50 p. M, will go
very thoroughly into the economic
rivalries which form the underlying
causes of imperialist conflicts, re-
viewing the sources of raw material
and the fields for foreign markets
for the sale of commodities and the
investment Of capital. 1t will out
line the extent of imperialist growth
throughout the world, and the COM
parative investments of the vari-
Gus imperialist powers. The rela-
ton of American Imperialism to
world Imperialism will be shown,
and the drive of American imperial
ism for world supremacy, which is
inevitably leading to another world
war.
Study of Social Institutions.
The second course, Social Insti-
tutions Under Capitalism" will also
be given on every Wednesday even
ing from 700 to 1920 p. m,
This course is a study of the
superstructure of the capitalist
system. 1t will explain the econ
omic basis of such social institutions
as the family, religion, the bour-
geoisie code of morals, the char
acter of the legal system, etc. The
study will of course be made with a
special view to understanding the
American capitalist institutions
their similarity and peculiarities as
compared with capitalist institu-
tions in other countries and the role
that these institutions play in the
class struggle.
Register Now.
Registration for these courses is
now going on at the Workers
School, rs Union Square. AS there
is always a heavy registration for
Meanings courses, prospective stu
dents are urged by the school to
register without delay.

successful mobilization of the mem
bership, and the response of the
workers everywhere was much more
favorable than in the previous cam
paigns. The house-to-house canvass
has not only brought in consider
able number of signatures but the
workers showed interest in the &C
Invites and policies Of the Party,
with the result that many valuable
contacts were established and quite
a number applied for membership.
Greater Effort Needed.
The membership must know, how
ever, that the situation now de-
mands a much greater effort. The
socialist and Zionist press has sue
ceeded in arousing chauvinist senti-
ments among some sections of the
Jewish population, which means
greater difficulties in obtaining sig
natures in certain parts of the city
for our Party. Moreover, in view
Of the socialist Zionist fascist at
tacks on our meetings and head
quarters and the increasing police
terror, we must be prepared for
every eventuality, we must be ready
to overcome every possible attempt
to keep our ticket off the ballot.
Red Sundays.
The coming three Sundays, start
ing with next Sunday, Sept. Is,
have been set aside as Red Sundays
for general mobilization of the Par
ty membership. Every Party mem
Der must report to the section head
quarters $3.50 in the morning to take
part in the signature drive.
But the three Sundays alone will
not be sufficient to get the neces-
sary number of signatures. The
drive must be carried on every
night. All Party members are re-
quested to devote every evening
they can spare in the next three
weeks to this signature campaign.
All section headquarters will be
open evenings, and committees pres
ent to give the assignments and all
necessary information. Draw into
this work all friends and sympa-
thizers of our movement.

EXPOSE GREEN'S
LETTER AT Great.
FALLS, MONTANA
Rank and File Made
Appeal on Labor Day

GREAT FALLS, Montana, Sept.
l0.-A new onslaught against the
rank and file has been organized by
the American Federation of Labor
officials following a distribution of
leaflets which appealed for support
of the International Labor Defense
in it's fight for the release of the
Gastonia textile strikers and which
exposed the anti-labor activities of
William Green, ALL. president.
The leaflets were distributed at
Gibson Park on Labor Day. Refer
ring to Green's circular letter in
which A. F. of L. unions were Gin
structed" not to contribute to the
LID. for the strikers defense, the
appeal declared:
Brothers, fellow-workers, COM
sades Are you with William Green
and the Executive Board of the A.
IF. of L. in their endeavor to hand
over the Gastonia strikers to be judi
italy murdered and imprisoned by
the master class because they struck
against unbearable working condi-
lions and starvation wages, who
Jared defend themselves when at
lacked by drunken gunmen?"
Since then, the Committee of or
ranized Labor which distributed the
leaflets points out, the Green Off
:ialdom has demanded the names of
those who circulated the leaflets so
that they can drive them from the
unions and force them from the
OBJ for exposing the A. F. of L.
treason.

To Defy Brownsville
cia list Zionist
Fascists on Thursday

The militant workers of Browns
vile, in response to the call of the
Communist Party, Brownsville sec.
ton, will turn out in force to the
open air meeting at Stone and Pit
kin AYES. on Thursday, 7:30 p. M,
to once more show the socialist
Zionist fascists that they cannot ter
rorize the Communist Party, the
enemy of chauvinism no matter
where it raises its head
Last week the Jewish fascists of
Brownsville attempted to break up
a Communist meeting held at the
same corner, but met with the right
kind of reception and were forced
to retire. But these Grave" war
riors retaliated by wrecking section
headquarters of the Party when no.
body was there. Several days later
the landlord, under pressure from
the fascists, gave notice to the
Brownsville comrades to move out
of his premises. The Young Com
munist League, having its head
quarters elsewhere, was also given
notice to move.
The Thursday meeting, at Stone
and Pitkin, is one of the answers of
the Communists and militant work
ers to this fascist campaign against
the Party. The meeting will be ad-
dressed by prominent speakers, in
Guiding Comrades Max Bedacht,
Robert Minor, j. Sultan, Ben Gold,
Fred Biedenkapp, Lena Chernenko,
and others.

Brown Boveri Company. His speech
es on patriotism were made for pay
he received from these concerns, all
of which are financially interested
in building battleships so they can
get in on the heavy graft connected
with government orders.
Shearer Pulled Boner.
Heretofore Shearer has been con-
sidered a first class patriot and
high in the favors of the naval
committee of the senate that voted
today to investigate him. But he
got into public quarrel over the
attempt to collect fees due him from
the shipbuilders and exposed a part
of the jigno propa -anda machine.
Hoover Supporters Busy.
1t is generally recognized here
that the Shearer Investigation" will
be utilized by the Hoover supporters
senatorial campaigns as part of
the pacifist smoke screen to con-
ceal imperialist war preparations.
The president of the Bethlehem
Shipbuilding Company, E. G. Grace,
in letter to Hoover, claims that
he did not know Shearer was a
propaganda, and that the COM
pany merely hired him as an "ad-
visor" Grace said neither he nor
Charles M. Schwab, president Of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, knew
of the employment of Shearer until
his propaganda activities were
called to their attention. Shearer
was then dismissed, according to
Grace.
This is regarded as an attempt of
the Hoover administration to shield
the shipbuilding corporations and
make Shearer the goat because of
his exposure of the propaganda
machine for big navy.

EASTERN STATES LAC
 IN AIR DEVELOPMENT

DETROIT, July IO.-Cities of the middle west, south and Pacific coast are finding ground for the self -congratulation at the expense of New York and the eastern sea- board in the latest government aviation statistics.
 Out of 65 air lines in the United States operating on a daily or six time-weekly schedule, only four touch New York City. These are the Colonial line to Boston, the Na- tional Air Transport service to and from Chicago and the Pitcairn serv- ice from Atlanta and Washington to New York.
 Chicago is the center of a spider web of air lines reaching west to the Pacific, east to the Atlantic, south to the Gulf and north to the twin cities Detroit has been link ed with Cleveland, Chicago and Buffalo. Other cities of the Great Lakes region are similarly well serv- ed with air transportation
 Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seat tie and other leading coast cities are junction points for a rapidly developing system of air lines. Tex as and the Mississippi valley are two other areas that have taken up flying with little hesitancy.
 In general the newer communi- ties have appeared to show less backwardness about trying the new form of transportation than the re- gions included in the thirteen origi- nal colonies.
