Ten Years Jail
tor Flying the
Beal Writes of West
Coast Terror
By FRED BEAL.

For flying Soviet flag at their
summer camp, five Los Angeles
women workers have been sent to
prison. Three of them are mothers.
One of the five, a 19-year-old girl,
Yetta Stromberg, is sent to jail for
ten years. The other four for five
years.
California is the same state that
has kept Mooney and Billings in
prison for thirteen long years-on
perjured, frame-up evidence. What
California has done to Mooney and
Billings, to the five women workers,
to scores of other workers is not
isolated in the United States. North
Carolina can more than match it
with the murder of Ella May, with
the murder of six Marion strikers,
with floggings and kidnappings OF
National Textile Workers Union or
ganizers.

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 12.-Five
hundred workers, welcoming Fred
Beal to Boston; carried him on their
shoulders through the station and
the street, amidst cheers for the
Gastonia mill workers and Beal's
fellow workers facing long terms in
prison.
The workers welcome was spon-
sored by the International Labor
Defense. Beal's father came from a
sick-bed in Lawrence to greet Fred
in Boston.
Beal, accompanied by the |. l.. D.
organizer, zelms, received another
great welcome on his visit to Law
renee, his home town, and the scene
of long years of slavery in the mills
for Beal. Beal and Zelms addressed
several workers clubs in Lawrence.

ers are being arranged by the Inter

tile mill centers as Lawrence, New

Fred Beal and X. Y. (Red) Hen
dryx, two of the seven Gastonia
defendants, are ready to greet the
workers of New York at the big
mass welcome at New Star Casino,
107th st. and Park Ave, Friday
night, but whether any other de-
PENDANTS will be present depends on
the workers of this city and the rest
of the country.
When the mass welcome was ar
ranged by the New York District of
the International Labor Defense, it
was thought that all seven defend
ants would be released on bail in
time to be present. But thus far
contributions and loans have been
sufficient only to free Beal and
Hendryx. The $4,000 quota as
signed to New York for the freeing
of Clarence Miller has not yet been
raised. All workers are therefore
urged to rush contributions or loans
at once to the office of the New

"If you want to hear the Gastonia
