Jugoslav-Bulgar Clash
80 Workers Slain

VIENNA, July lit is reported
here that Jugoslav and Bulgarian
troops are engaged in pitched bat
tie on the border today when Bull
garian militarist, while inspecting
the guard, was shot at by Jugo-
slav sentry. No casualties resulted,
but the clash is typical of the jingo-
istic hysteria rampant in the Bal
kans, which led last week to joint
protest by the English and French
imperialist ministers at Belgrade
and Sofia.
More than thirty workers and
peasants have been killed by border
guards since the first of the year.
The strained relations between
Hungary and Czechoslovakia were
given an added wrench yesterday
when the Czech minister at Buda-
pest delivered a note to Foreign
Minister Walko demanding that the
Hungarian imperialists release the
Czech railway agent recently ar
rested by Hungarian gendarmes,
apologize for the arrest and prom
Use that a similar occurrence would
never happen again.
The Hungarian semi-official news
agency declares the note "inac-
ceptable," while the Budapest press
brands it as "impudent."
No traffic has run through Hni-
desnemeti, the border station where
the Czech was taken into custody,
for two weeks, the Czechoslovakian
government having closed its side
of the road as measure of re-
prisal. The situation has now
reached such a state that no solu
ton, save an appeal to the League
of Nations, seems possible.
The shadows of the French and
British empires are seen lurking in
the background of these jingoistic
outbursts.

slaughtered Negroes body. Melvin

ticularly hit by the latest exodus.

workers here have nothing but con-
tempt. It's sole purpose, they claim,
is to. divert popular resentment at
the brutal murder while attempting
to fasten responsibility for it on
another innocent Negro.
Part of Lynching Wave.
That the Charlotte lynching is
only part of wave of lynch terror
now driving even greater numbers
of Negro workers away from the
south is the conviction of the Har-
lem Inter-racial Branch of the In
ternational Labor Defense, which
points to the case at Raleigh, N. c.,
where the Negro worker, William
Lee, faces conviction in connection
with the death of white man last
year. Weak evidence had forced
the court to grant Lee new trial
last December, when Lee was orig
inally slated for the chair.
The fierce drive against the Ne
groes is attributed by the Inter
racial Branch to the shooting of
Police Chief Aderholt when mill po-
lice raided the Workers Internation-
al Relief tent colony on June 7.
To launch a broad fight against
this new terror will be one of the
main tasks of "Gastonia Night" to
be held in Harlem on July 10. Pre-
paratory plans for the event will be
formulated at a meeting of the
Inter-racial l. L. D. branch at the
Harlem Labor Center, 2S5 West

At the next meeting of the
League, scheduled for July 15 at the

ants League and the l. L. D. in the
work of defending class war pria-

Solomon Harper, publicity direc-
tor of the League, reports that
many Of the rent sharks whose ten
ants have been organized are al
ready breaking down on their
threats to boost rentals. But the
League is warning it's members net
to rest content with such partial
victories, since even the present
rents are exorbitant, while new
raises can be looked for all along
the line beginning with the first of
the month.
Voluntary help is badly needed
for the Leagues office. Unem-
ployed workers are urged to lend a

The National Office of the Trade

yesterday:
The strike of the New Orleans
street car men is another indication
that the exploited workers, particu-
larly in the South, are determined,
ready and willing to resist the open
shop drive and wage-cutting cam
paign of the employers. The 1000
New Orleans carmen and the $4,000
building trades workers, who are
ready to support them by soli-
darity strike, are being betrayed
and will probably be sold out by the
officials of the building trades
council and the bureaucracy of the
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric Railway Employees. To
] stop the general strike meeting to-
day, and at the same time offer the
company the right to fire auy en-
ployes it wishes, is surrender. The
workers need a new leadership, such
as the new trade union center to be
