As Gertrude Welsh, another union

expulsion notice on the bulletin
board Saturday, one of the "execu-

had letter leave the hall like a

When she remarked that she
wasn't taking orders from gang

some of Whalen's cossacks arrived
to prevent any resistance from the
workers.

SOUTHERN COURTS JAIL
UNION ORGANIZERS ON
MOST FLIMSY PRETEXTS
Whole Campaign Launched to Get Militants
Into Chain Gangs, Take Leaders from Struggle

Tactics of the Southern bosses
courts and police officers in the
present campaign to drive all mill
tant union organizers out of the
South are described by worker
from Winston-Salem, interviewed
by The Daily Worker.
Dewey Martin, Southern organ
izer for the National Textile Work
ers. Union, was recently convicted
"of passing bad check" and SEN
fenced to seven months on the chain
gang.
Martin deposited a check to the
union account in a Winston-Salem
bank. 1t was an out-of-town check,
and the bank asked three days to
collect it. Martin wrote a check for
$500 to be presented after the three
days were ended. The bank actually
took eight days to collect, and the
person who received the check, be-
fore the eight days were up, swore
out a warrant. Martin was released
on $25 bail, and was tried March 10.
He didn't have a chance. The ordi-
nary thing in such a case is that
the bank either eventually collects
its money and cashes the check, or
the man who drew the check is al
lowed to make it good-if there have
been court proceedings to pay the
trivial costs.
Judicial Wit.
But in this case, as soon as the
judge saw Attorney Binkley come in
he attacked the lawyer: Are you
a green fly? No, you're just boil
weevil, with a lot of green flies
buzzing around you? Are you
Southerner?"
Eyes"
I'm ashamed to own you!'
Martin was quizzed principally on
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-03-24

his political beliefs.
After Martin was sentenced, they
started out to get the lawyer. They
raked up an old case, six Years old,
in which Binkley had represented a
man in a damage suit, for a per-
centage of what damages were Sc
cured, The damages were obtained,
and divided as per agreement. Now
this man has been persuaded to come
forward and say that the lawyer did
not represent him, and that any part
of the damages taken were stolen.
The Plot on Powers.
Since then George Powers has al
so been sentenced to the chain gang,
On framed up charge of carrying
concealed weapons. But before this
the sheriff made an attempt to get
him another way. He came around
to the landlady of the house where
Powers and George Saul were room
ing, and told her that she should at
cuse them of taking out her dauGh-
ter without her consent. The only
trouble with this was that the land
lady knew that these two organizers
did not even know of any daughter.
Three or four detectives have
been watching the National Textile
Workers Union office, and the In
ternational Labor Defense office all
the time.
Saul is on bonds, while his case
is on appeal, for openly wearing
gun when he went to speak Glrilg
the Gastonia trial period, at Mt.
Holly, North Carolina. N.T.W. or
ganizers and other organizers were
being daily menaced by lynch gangs,
ana Saul had the gun in a legal
wey, for protection. Nevertheless
he was tried for Carrying concealed
weapons"

Demand Release
of Harry Eisman

lContiaaed from Page One)
Brofman. One cop was heard tell
ing a fellow thug, "When you use
your club, smack them"
Banners carried by the demon
strators read: Five years in Jail
for Eisman for being a militant
Pioneer. Demand the release of
Harry Eisman. John the Young
Pioneer of America. Defend the
Soviet Union," etc.
Despite the brutal attacks of the
police the demonstrators marched
down to 10th st. and Fifth Ave.
where they held a mass meeting.
Jessie Taft, Shoyn and others spoke
telling the workers and workers
children of the attacks of the bosses
upon the workers and calling them
to protest the falling of Eisman.
The police then rushed in and broke
up the meeting but another meet
ing was held.
The crowd then formed a line
and marched down to Lexington
Ave. where the police tried to dis
perse them, They then marched up
Lexington Ave. towards 103rd st.
Workers came out of their homes
and the crowd swelled to over 1000.
At every corner police were waiting
to break up the march. Neverthe-
less the line marched on solidly to
103rd st. where they dispersed.
A statement issued by the Young
Pioneers of the New York District
points out that Eisman was SEN
fenced because he had joined in the
demand of the 10000 New York
workers for work or wages" 1t
also calls upon all workers and
workers children to demand Els
mans release.
The International Labor Defense
is going to appeal the case and do
its utmost to free Harry Eisman.

Cab Companies Put
Men in Prison Toys

The Motor Cab Transportation
Co., the Yellow Cab and Terminal
Cab Companies are forcing their
1000 employees to don the convict
clothes prescribed for all cab driv-
ers today, week ahead of the time
set by Whalen in his humiliating
order.
The uniform consists of a cap and
buster of special cloth which gave,
it is said, plenty of good graft to
interested parties when it was Sc
lected and the contract for manu-
facture of the uniform made. The
cab drivers have to pay for their
uniforms.
Policing the Drivers
The main purpose of the uniform
ing is to make cab drivers still more
regulated and policed, hampered and
restricted, and to give the big COM
panies an advantage. The uniform
ing of the drivers follows a num-
Der of penal institution rules for
cab drivers-fingerprinting, taking
of rogues gallery photographs, the
issuance of a sort of passport with
out which they can be arrested by
any policeman, etc.

workers have been growing more
and more powerful in New York, as
in other industrial centers, as the
workers grow more aware Of their
situation. The workers of New

use the streets and public squares,
built by workers, allowed by the city
for use by every native plutocrat on

machine guns to the starving ant
