ANOTHER LEAGUE DEFEAT

Colorado Republicans have emphaticaly declared
against the entrance of the United States into the
League OF Nations, either through the front door Of
It's Covenant or the back door of its private Court
In the Republican primaries of that State George
IT, Shaw ran as an anti-League candidate for
United States Senator against William V Hodges,
the pro-Leaguer.
Hodges, ex-treasurer Of the Republican National
committee, and a member of the Denver Committee
urging the entry of America into the League Court
had the support of the organization.
Shaw a young lawyer just turned forty. born in
Malne and educated in Colorado had the support of
the people.
There was no doubt about where these two oppon-
eh1s stood IN regard to American foreign policy
In speech after speech Shaw condemned the attempt
OF international bankers and other special interests
to entangle this country in the League of Nations
and It's League Court.
In speech after speech Shaw declared that "this
government should not engage in any. agreements
tfeaties OF arrangements either formal or informal!
III any way inconsistent with or antagOnistc TO the
policy set forth in the Farewell Address of President
Washington
BY the nomination Of Shaw and the defeat of Ho-
dges, Colorado Republicans have lined up for the
Farewell Address and against the League Covenant
and its Court protocol as Americas chart in foreign
affairs
And i this is made the issue between the Republi-
can and Democratic nominees for United States Sella

upon to elect Senator next December pledged toll

dyes, Colorado Republicans have repeated history.
Time and again the American people, Democrats
as well as Republicans have gone to the polls andI
filed their protest against American membership in
the executive legislative judicial branch of the
League of Nations.
And the Administration that persists in defying
this popular mandate will invite reputation at the
polls which it will richly deserve.
Colorado's verdict is a warning to the President
and the Senate that they will do we'll to eed-Wash-

CHICAGO T0|LERS
TELL OF BEATINCS
Judge Helps Bosses by
Hiding Sluggings

CHICAGO, April 23.-After two
and a half days of picking a jury,
the trial of the IS workers arrested
at the unemployment meeting on
February 26th started this after
noon.
Three members of the "Red and
Bomb Squad" testified that the
meeting of 600 workers was orderly
until the meeting was adjourned,
and the doors were locked by the
police, and questioning of all present
by Gunman Siege and others caused
protests and pushing towards the
doors.
The judge aided the prosecution
and the bosses by ruling out the
beatings in the Detective Bureau.
The prosecution saw that the jury
was skeptical and persuaded the
judge to drop the charges against
so defendants, leaving IL leaders for
railroading. Workers on the jury
seem to understand the nature of
the case, but the jury goes home
every night. The trial goes on
again tomorrow morning.

by lawyers of the international La

After arguments by the legal rep

Interracial M e e tin g
Scores Murder Gang

Meeting in Finnish Cooperative
Hall last night, in Harlem, New
York workers, Negro and white, de-
nounced the lynching of the Pullman
porter, wilkins, and adopted resolu-
tions pledging to fight on against
the murder of workers.
1t was pointed out by speakers
that an increased number of lynch
ings takes place now during the
crisis, and that this is form of ter
ror visited on the most exploited
section of the working class, to keep
them from organizing and fighting
for better conditions.
1t is worth noticing that only
workers and farmers are lynched,
and the speakers assailed the role
of the reactionary organizations,
whether Negro or white, which seek
to block the hands of those who
would fight lynching.
Demand Harper Release
The sentencing of Sol Harper to
three months for speaking for mill
tant struggle against the lynchers
brought condemnation from the
meeting, not only for the capitalist
court that sentenced him but also
for the Randolph clique in the Broth
erhood of Sleeping Car Porters who
brought the charge against him.

Important decisions regarding
the functioning and structure of the
new Food Workers Industrial Union
of New York We're made Tuesday
night at the first meeting of its
executive committee at the present
headquarters, 16 w. 21st st. Date
for the first shop council meeting
was set for the second week in May,
when election of officials and de-
partment heads will take place.
Sam Weissman was elected as act
ing secretary-treasurcr.
A prolonged discussion took place
over the question as to whether or
not bread made by membe- of the
new union working under union
conditions should be supplied with
a label. Majority sentiment was
against the use of the label on the
grounds that it creates an illusion
in he minds of workers that by
buying union label" bread, they
are helping bakers in their struggle
against exploitation.
Emphasis was laid on the neces-
sity for militant strikes to better
conditions, instead of OIL building
up business for the boss by A.

depending on public sympathy.
This question, together with other
points such as standard of wages
for officials, minimum wage scales,
and rate of dues payment was re-
ferred to subcommittee for
further elaboration.
Separate sessions of council mem
bers belonging to the different de-
partments will be held this week te
take up pressing problems. Besides

League last Tuesday night in front
of the 18th Coast Defense Armory

CHINESE T0|LERS
FOIL EXECUTION
Were Sent to Death by
Bloody Machado

The International Labor Defense
is in receipt of letter from Hong
kong, China, in which it is reported
that the four Chinese revolutionary
workers who were deported from
H;yana, Cuba, by the Machado fas-
cist government to China to be ex-
ecuted there by Chang kai-Shek es-
capped execution through the timely
interference of the Chinese revolu-
tionary workers.
The four workers, Kee Chang, H
H. Su, H. S. Ting, and C. c. Lee,
were deported some time ago. They
passed through New Orleans and
San Francisco ports. The Interna-
tional Labor Defense was making a
strenuous effort to save these work
ers and to divert their deportation
from China to the Soviet Union, and
had received permission from the
Soviet Union for their entrance.
This attempt failed. Subsequent eff
forts for their release were made ny
the Japanese section of the M.O.P.R.
but without any success.
When the ship with the four de-
portees, heavily guarded, arrived at
Shanghai, the Chinese militant sea-
men skillfully released them. They
