with seventy-two passengers aboard,

There probably hasn't been

advent of the Charleston several

described as a happy medium be-

lions only couple of days off and
possible workers votes at stake. the
Tammany watchdogs in contrast to
their usual behavior, made no effort
to break up the demonstration.
The demonstration was arranged
specifically to protest against the
disruption of a strike meeting last
Tuesday by members of he industrial
squad who, ignoring such deails as
warrants, arrested four strikers on
framed up charges of assault. The
New York district of the Interna-
tional Labor Defense cooperated in
the demonstration.
A committee of officials Of the
Window Cleaners Protective Union,
Local s, headed by Harry Feinstein,
secretary, went into the City Hall to
present a petition to Mayor Walker,
but he was conveniently out. his
secretary doing the job of saying
the usual polite empty words.
The strikers then rode in their
buses up Fifth Ave. to 23rd ST.,
then south on Fourth Ave. past the
Workers Center on Union Square,
where they were cheered by workers
in front of the building, and back to
Manhattan Lyceurn.
Three striking window cleaners, J..
Berg, N. Samuelson and M. Kabaluk,
were arrested while picketing Satur-
day morning. They will receive a
hearing next Monday.

a still more efficient strikebreaking
body. The Communist Party is for
the increase of wages of all work
ers, all civil employees, The in
crease in the wages of the first
class patrolmen means to build up
a body which will prevent the work
ers from realizing increased wages.
The increased wages for first grade
firemen has been put into the same
proposal in order to be able by APP
pealing for support to firemen to
secure the increased wages for the
patrolmen. Under these circum.
stances, since it is one question we
urge the workers to vote "No" and
to fight energetically for. increased
wages for all civil employees, for
the right to organize, into unions
and workingclass organizations.
Proposition No. One.
This proposition reads as follows
Creating Sanitary Commits
sion: Shall the local law of the
City Of New York for the year
1929, and entitled: "a local law to
supplement and amend the Great
or New York Charter in relation
to establishing a Department of
Sanitation and creating the SAM

Jurisdiction, powers, and duties of
such department and of such com
mission and transferring thereto
Jurisdiction, powers and duties Of
such other departments and Of
ficers,' become operative as there
in provided"
Vote mo" on this proposition.
The establishment of sanitation
commission and a department of
sanitation does not mean better
sanitation for the masses Of people
but is an instrument for building
up great bureaucracy and is a
weapon for more effective discrimi-
nation against the workers in the
factories. In order to secure proper
sanitation, the workers must fight
for the establishment of sanitation
committees Of ths workers in the
shops to insure adequate health and
working facilities and conditions.

his point.

CASTONIA CASE
PRISONERS MAKE
DIRECT APPEAL
CAR eve to Remain in
Jail for Year More?
Continued from Page Onsy

Continued from Page Orey
Asking "Are we to remain in Jail
for another half year," the six
Gastonia class wor prisoners who
are still behind the bars yesterday
made an appeal for funds to bail
them out directly to the American
working class, struggling in whose
interests they were Jailed.
"The verdict has been declared
against u.s." they state. eve have
been declared guilty by most
prejudiced jury. The judge imposed
his vicious sentence. The first act
of this working-class drama is over.
Next comes the appeal to the
Supreme Court. The case will come
up in April. ARE WE TO RE-
MAIN BEHIND THE BARS FOR
ANOTHER HALF A YEAR?
"The workers must answer this
question. The workers must decide
whether we are to remain in jail or
go out on bail. The funds Of the
international Labor Defense have
been tied up by the mill-owners and
their tools to the extent of $4,000.
1t might take months before this
fund is released, and meanwhile we
must continue to lie in jail unless
the workers will furnish funds to
release us soon. We iced not re-
peat at this stage that we are in
prison because of our stand with the
working class, and it is the duty OF
every worker to come to our aid.
"We propose that the following
districts of the l. l.. D. make it
their task to raise the bail for one
prisoner each. We will see which
district will be the first one to re-
lease one of us.
"Cleveland district: $500 to free
Mclaughlin.
pittsburgh district: $500 to
free McGinnis. ~
Boston district: $4,000 to free
Beal.
philadelphia district: $4,000 to
free Harrison.
Detroit district: $4,000 to free
Carter.
"New York district: $4,000 to
free Miller.
erred Hendricks, who was serl-
ously ill, as are two more, was al
ready released on $4,000 bond,
"The other districts should raise
a minimum of $1,000 each so as to
make up in case any district falls
behind. This money would be con-
sidered as loan until the $4,000
would be released from its present
attachment. Some workers would
make contributions as well as loans.
"Fellow workers: 1t is up to you
to decide whether we are to remain
in iail or not. Remember we are
facing a 20 year sentence and this
is the only opportunity we have to
taste some freedom.
