IN PHILA.
IN BIC CASTONIA
MEET ON FRIDAY
Get Support Of Many
Trade Unions

PHILADELPHIA, July ga
large city conference for the Gas
tonia prisoners, composed of many
delegates representing local trade
unions, shop committees, and vari-
Gus organizations will be held here
under the direction of the Interna-
tional Labor Defense and the
Workers International Relief as a
joint conference on Friday night,
July &c, at the Grand Fraternity
Hall.
An intensive campaign is being
carried on in District No. 3 to OBJ
tain mass support of the workers
for the framed-up Gastonia strikers.
Jennie Cooper, the local secretary of
the International Labor Defense, re-
ports that the workers of Philadel-
phia and vicinity are responding to
the calls that are being sent out,
and the workers are determined to
stand back of the victims of the
Manville-Jenckes frame-up.
An intensive drive to secure So
900 signatures will be started with
in few days to be sent to the Gov
ernor of North Carolina to demand
the unconditional release of the
class-war prisoners in the South.
According to all indications, the
coming conference will be one of
the best ever held in Philadelphia.
Letters are coming in to the Inter-
national Labor Defense headquar-
tiers from many local organizations
promising to send delegates to the
Conference.
Arrangements are now under
way for the distribution of $4,000
leaflets among the industries of this
section to expose the Gastonia
frame-up and to call on the workers
for mass support for the release of
the victims of the Southern textile
barons. Further plans are being
made to conduct a series of tag
days to be held throughout the city
and district from the 9th of July
to August 3rd, inclusive.

the two men who had come
in with her.
"Miss Macy Mr.. jim
Goodwin" she said, and
Ann Marie looked up into
the kindest pair of brown
eyes she ever had seen.
Jim Goodwin was one of
those very tall, very large
men who are very quiet and
very gentle. You could tell,
just by looking at him, that
there was nothing crooked,
nothing small or mean,
about him. He met the
world with a straight, hon
est pair of eyes, a warm
firm handclasp and a quick,
friendly, boyish smile.
Ann Marie noticed all
those things about him as
she shook hands with him
and then forgot all about
him instantly.
For Florence was intro
ducing the other man to
her, and he was anything
but the kind of man that
girls forget. He was the
kind that a great many of
them, no doubt, wished they
could forget.

Ann Marie" Florence was
saying, and as Ann Marie
turned to look at him, some
thing happened to her heart
that certainly never had
happened to it before.
It seemed to stop for a
moment, suffocating her,
and then to hurry on faster
than ever before = 3"
Long afterward she told
Neal Forsythe, half joking,
that she never had under
stood the phrase, "my heart
stood still" until that mo-

He was enough to make
any girl stop, look and take
another look.
He looked like the paint
ings of Lord Byron-black
hair, gray eyes with a hint
of the devil in them, and the
sensitive mouth of a poet.
"Of course, you re going
to go with us tonight" he
said to Ann Marie, shaking
hands with her. "You
wouldn't throw me and Jim
down, would you? Floss
says that every other girl in
town is dated up to go"
Ann Marie interrupted
him, shaking her head. ooh,
but she's joking! There al
ways are girls who stay at
home from the Country Club
parties. There NEVER are
enough men to go round in
this town." she declared.
"Why Floss knows dozens
Of girls she could ask in
stead of me. /"

Washington Business And
