den of the Marking consulate, the
tremendous mass meetings Friday
night, which marshalled $4,000

"Many working class organiza-

meet, and more credentials are pour

''Two other brc. ches of the In

Fred Taylor, another of those
jailed as consequence of the Friday
demonstrations, also endorsed the
conference. Taylor was. beaten
about the head and smashed in the
mouth by two towering Tammany
gunner at the time of his arrest;
when the handouts had been snap

began to twist the chain while the
other grabbed Taylor's free arm anc
