FIGHT LyNCHINC
OF NEGRO TOILERS

The recent lynchings in Texas
and Tennessee have taken on the
aspect of a widely organized and
carefully prepared movement on
the part of the southern bourgeoisie
and big landholders. Terrified by
the deep economic crisis, and the
swift leftward movement of the Ne
gro and white workers, they are ap-
pealing to Judge Lynch" to fas-
cist mob violence.
Tonight all workers, Negro and
white are called to huge protest
meeting in Brooklyn, not only to
protest against the lynching of Ne
groes, but to organize this fight at
the same time.
This mass meeting will be held
in the Brooklyn Workers Center

5 T0ILE:RS KILLED
IN history CRASH
80 Others Will Not be
Taken Out Alive

Hasty construction, speed-up and
bad engineering resulted in the di-
rect murder of at least five workers
and the mortal injury of perhaps
thirty others when five stories of
structural steel in a building which
is being erected for the Davis Bak-
ing Co. at 51st st. and 18th Ave.
crashed to the ground yesterday af-
ternoon. Tons of twisted steel Cir
ders, which fell with a crash that
was heard for several blocks, must
have crushed the workers to a
bloody pulp as the supports in the
basement suddenly gave way.
Ambulances, fire trucks and emer-
gency wagons rushed to the scene
Of the accident. But while the cold
blooded and cynically optimistic cap
italist press refers to the workers
who have not yet been discovered as
merely "buried" beneath the debris,
it doesn't require much imagination
to understand that these workers
will not be taken out alive.
The next step, no doubt, will be a
cynical Investigating" commission,
which will whitewash the bosses and
blame the murder on the dead vic
TINS of capitalist naturalization.

AUSTRIA FACING
OPEN CIVIL WAR
Fascists Pushing for
A Dictatorship
(WireIess BIZ Inprecorr)

VIENNA, May 22-The Heimwehr
fascist armed forces) leaders have
directed an ultimatum to the Aus
TRAN government demanding the ap-
pointment of Heimwehr nominees to
the Ministry of the Interior and to
the Police Presidency of Vienna,
also the dissolution of the Socialist
Republican Defense League" the
workers Defense League" ETC.,
threatening a coup d'etat if the ulti-
matum is rejected.
The Heimwehr has abandoned its
mask, and is calling openly for the
establishment of a fascist dictator
ship to fulfill the Heimwehr's mis-
sion to restore order in Austria
No energetic action can be expect
ed from Schober or the bourgeois
parties. Fascism's only real enemy
is the worker and decisive struggles
are approaching.

Germany ARMS!
AGAINST whom?
Socialists" C y for
War on Soviet
(WireIess By Hpprecorr)

BERLIN, May 22-Yesterday eve
ming the Reichswehr German army
budget debate commenced in the
Reichstag. The Reichswehr minis
ter, Groener, delivered militarist
speech, ridiculing the League of. Ma
tons disarmament comedy, demand
ing that Germany arm to the full
extent permitted under the treaty Of
Versailles, justifying the increase Of
100000 marks in the budget, de-
manding further heavy increases
next year, also demanding the mill
tarization of the youth.
The Socialist" Schoepflin, in
speaking, stressed the point that the
Social Democratic party supported
the Reichswehr and the idea Of ma
tional defense. He accused certain
Reichswehr circles of flirting with
Soviet militarism" - delivering an
anti-Soviet TRADE.
The Communist Kipperberger re-
iected the budget on principle, eX-
posing the illegal connections of the
Reichswehr, particularly with the
semi-military fascist formations.
Admiral Brueninghaus, a support
er of Groener, furiously attacked
the revolutionary agitation in the
Reichswehr and the navy. Today the
debate is continued The tabled
Communist motion of nonconfidence
will be voted on tomorrow.

China SOLDIERS
JOIN RED ARMY
Kuomintang Officials
Scared Cold

1t is reported that disconnected
soldiers in the ranks of independent
military groups in North Fukien
are showing strong revolutionary
tendencies and there is great pos
sibility that they may join the Red
Armies. In many instances which
happened recently, large troops of
soldiers destroyed their officers and
joined the ranks of the Red Army.
Such cases are multiplying.
Don't continue your hostile ac-
tions; otherwise you all will be
shot"-this is what the Chinese
Communists wrote to an Annoy mag
istrate, according to on Associated
Press report yesterday.
The reactionary official rats of
the Fukien provincial government
sensed what's coming to them if
they keep on raiding Communist
and revolutionary workers head
quarters and interfere with revolu-
tionay activities. So they sensibly
got scared and ceased raids upon
Communist headquarters and also
stopped interfering with all revolu-
tionary activities.
Thus we see that the ruling au-
thority in Fukien as we'll as many
other parts of China is incapable of
ruling" any more. A new author
ity, the democratic dictatorship of
the workers and peasants, in the
form of Soviets will take its place.

FL AIAN| FACES

JOBLESS MEET
First Of Group of 9 To
Be Railroaded
in Newark
Prosecutor Jeers Negro
Defendant Makes Fine
Speech on Stand

NEWARK, May %. - Dominick
Flaiani, Communist Party organizer
was tonight convicted on a charge
of sedition by jury of business
men and factory foremen in the
Court of Quarter Sessions. The jury
was out less than two hours.
The labor jury who attended the
trial for the last four days before
Judge Walter Van Ripper, brought
in its verdict, acquitting Flaiani and
condemns the actions of the judge
and Prosecuting Attorney Simon
Fisch and calls upon the workers
to rally for the liberation of the
convicted worker who was found
guilty on two counts. He faces a
15-year term in prison.
AS soon as the verdict was made
known, Samuel Nesin, district rep
resentative, International Labor De-
tense announced that a united front
protest demonstration will be held
Saturday at 2 p. m. in Military
Park. All Newark workers are
urged to attend. Eight other workers
are facing trial on charges similar
to that on which Flaiani was con-
victed
'In the Name of Cod
ON the name of god I ask you to
bring in verdict of guilty!" Thus
Prosecutor Simon Fisch this after
noon ended his plea to the jury for
the conviction of Flaiani, the Com.
munist Party organizer.
To prejudice the jury who are all
devoute churchmen, Fisch stressed
that Flaiani "does not believe in
god" also ridiculed the testimony
yesterday of D. W. Graham, a Ne
gro worker who is the Communist
Party candidate for United States
Senator from New Jersey. The
prosecutor referred to Graham as
that poor old darby" Graham is
one of the eight who are also under
Indictment charged with sedition
and will go on trial later.
Flaiani took the stand this morn
ing and for one hour gave the sub
"tance Of the speech he made in Feb
ruary for which he was arrested
and charged with advocating the
overthrow of the United States gov
arnment and also urging the murder
Of the chief of police of Newark, in
4 manner similar to "the killing of
the chief of police of Gastonia." The
Gastonia strike and the death of
Chief of Police Aderholt was con-
stantly referred to by Fisch in his
speech to the jury. Evidently the
self-defense of the Gastonia workers
has the capitalist class worried in
all sections of the country.
