On July the unemployment movement will

ers win be present. This convention will be
to strengthen the unemployed movement, the
building Of the T.U.U l.. and the fighting spirit
of the entire working class. The bosses have
responded to this unemployed movement with
the smashing of demonstrations, the use of
machine guns tear gas bombs and every mill
tary weapon to terroriZe the workers The
demonstrators have been beaten and dubbed
in the manner of the white terror of the worst
fascist government of the world The leaders
Of the demonstrations, speakers and fighters
have been beaten and then jailed for long terms
Of imprisonment. Criminal Syndicalist laws
have been involved to stop the organization of
the unemployed and to defeat the growing
militant fighting spirit of the workers. In the
South organizers and speakers stand in danger
cipate in this struggle.
Our answer to those bloody fascist attacks
must be the solidarity of all workers The
WIR. enters fully into this campaign and is
modifying all OF its sections and affiliated
groups to support the July convention and
to make possible the bringing together of the
largest number Of delegates ever assembled in
a convention hall. June 28th will be Unem-

The WI.R. will establish relief kitchens in
Chicago to take care of the feeding of the
thousands OF delegates and to show the soli-
darity that the workers in all parts of the
country are displaying for the work of the
July convention.
In this campaign the W.IR. will seek to draw
in much greater mass membership, so as to
permanently establish the fighting working
class relief organization of solidarity. The
struggle of the unemployed workers is one Of
the most important at the present time, but

The WI.R. becomes very important factor
in the support of all of these sections of the
