WORKERS ANGRY

Audience in Courtroom
Denounces Prosecution

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Oct. 7,
The labor jury sent by the
Cleveland Trade Union Unity
Convention to observe the Gas
tonia case trial a render a ver-
dict to the working class, was
thrown out of the court room this
morning.
just before the court convened,
they took seats. The court attend
ant Immediately told the Negro
workers, Sol Harper and Charles
Frank, that Negroes were not per-
mitted to sit with white workers and
that they would have to go to the
balcony, where Negroes are usually
Jim Crowed. The whole labor jury
arose in body as protest against
this racial discrimination and started
to the balcony.
Bar Negroes.
Before they could get seats there,
another attendant rushed up and
told them that the judge had ruled
that for this trial no Negroes would
be allowed in the court room at all,
either in the balcony or downstairs.
When the white workers of the
labor jury protested against this,
the flunkey threatened them all with
arrest, and drove them out.
This afternoon the labor jury
again took seats, and have succeed
ed thus far in remaining.
The labor jury issued statement
as follows:
"The inclusion of Negro workers
demonstrates the absence of racial
prejudice among the white workers
who elected them, and also sup
ports the campaign to organize the
southern mill workers and millions
of exploited Negro workers. The
bosses have gone to extreme lengths
to divide the ranks of the workers
by appeals to religious and racial
prejudice. This must be combatted
with determination. The workers
interests are the same, whether they
are white or black. Victory requires
a united front of all races against
the bosses, and their agents"
Besides Harper, who represented
the Trade Union Unity League, and
Frank, who represented the Amer
lean Negro Labor Congress, the
labor jury consisted of Leo Hoff-
bauer, representing the Iron and
Bronze Workers Union, New York;
F. P. Cush, American Association of
Steel and Tin Workers Union, Pitts
burgh; Henry Buckley, International
Shoe and Leather Workers, New
York; Ida Rothstein, Needle Trades

The testimony of states witnesses
today was as shaky and contradic-
tory as it has been since the begin
ming of the trial. This morning, A.
c. Little, father of Mrs. Jenkins,
who testified yesterday, contradicted
his daughters testimony on a minor
point, but had learned his lines fair
ly well, otherwise. He told about
seeing "scuffling between the Off

Redistrlcting Bill Is Passed By
The House.

After ignoring for almost ten years the
constitutional mandate to reapportion its
membership, the House Of Representatives
late last Friday passed the Fem bill to
prescribe a method by which its seats
shall be allotted among the States after
the next census in l930if Congress should
fail to act at that time.
The measure was passed after motion
to send 1t back to committee had failed by
a vote Of 228 to 1874. This ended strue-
gle which has been with somewhat similar
bills beaten four times in the last six
years On one other occasion the House
passed a reapportionment measure, but it
failed to gain the approval of the Senate.
A storm of debate that held the House
for two days preceded Its passage. With
some exceptions. most Of the members
taking part in the fight disreearded party
lines and favored or opposed the measure
largely according to whether their States
would gain o. lose representation.
The proposal provides that on the first
day Of the second session OF the Seventy
first Congress the Secretary of Commerce
shall transmit to il statement showing
the population Of each State and the mum.
Der Of representatives each State would
be en- tiled to under an allotment of the
present ASS seats. 1t also prescribes a
mathematical method for arriving at the
distribution OF seats,
Under the second section Of the bill it is
provided that, II Congress fails to enact a
law apportioning the representatives
among the States, the seats shall be dis
tributed in accordance with the allotment
made by the Secretary Of Commerce.
Although the measure was sharply con-
tested. the opposition was beaten on every
material change proposed.
