Special May l Appeal
to Chemical Workers

The May Day Manifesto of the
international Labor Defense points
out that when May Day was first
celebrated in 1886, the working class
was militantly struggling against
the employers persecution.
Nearly half century has past,
it continues, and we find the worlds
workers modified against the i'm
perialist war danger, for the defense
of the Soviet Union, for Work or
Wages" for the unemployed, for So
cial insurance, for the release of all
the class war prisoners, and for the
unity of Negro and white workers.
The demand for the release Of all
class war prisoners is a basic de-
mand on May Day. 1t is of special
this year due to the
many militant workers now in pris-
on, especially the leaders Of the un-
demonstrations in all
parts of the country.
The manifesto reminds its leaders
that since last May Day, many
workers have been killed by bosses
agents in the class war, including
Ella May, the six Marion textile
traction strikers in New
Orleans, Steve Katovis, and Gino
Mazolla in New York.
At the present time, three mill
tant workers are held on charges
that can bring them to the electric
chair, They are NJ. II. Powers and
Joe Carr in Georgia, and Leonard
D. Doherty in Boston. The state
ment warns that the Doherty frame
up is another Sacco-Vanzetti case.

aced by the capitalist govern
ments of the world because it
is the workers state, where
unemployment has been abol-
ished and wages continually rise,
where the workers and farmers,
united, are building a new world
order.
This is the program of hundreds
of thousands of workers throughout
the world. For this program, ex-
tensive mobilization of workers in
America is going on at factory and
street meetings, by special distribu-
tions of leaflets and copies of the
Daily Worker, printed in huge edi-
tons, by formation of united front
conferences in most large cities, by
formation Of committees of action
in the factories, by organization of
the councils of the unemployed and
the revolutionary industrial unions
and leagues Of the Trade Union
Unity League.
To protect from police and fascist
brutality workers who will parade
and demonstrate under these and
similar slogans by hundreds of
thousands on May Day, workers de-
tense committees are being organ
lied,
Urging all workers to strike and
demonstrate for these demads, many
organizations have issued formal
proclamations. Included among them
are the Communist Party, national
and district organizations; the
