here had signified by acquitting the
murderers of Ella May that it was
legal to kill members of a real
textile workers union, the Loray
mill gang began to threaten lynch

A drive is on hand, in which mill
thugs, officers of the law, and the
Gastonia city government combine,
to run all union organizers out Of
CASTOR and Mecklenburg counties.

The meeting adopted a resolution
to be presented to the mayor with
the demands by a march to the City
Hall, in which all the workers par

and sentenced to 80 days in Jail and

to carry on the struggle of organ

the city under the banner Of the

elected to plan further demonstra-

Thirty-five workers joined the
Communist Party and the Young
