NEW YORK.-Four hundred I'M

on the starvation lines for months
by the crooked bureaucracy forced on
Walters Local /, A. F. L., by the in
ternational office of the union, were
attacked by gangster and finally
driven from the union office by po-
lice Saturday. Both the gangster
and the cops were set on the unem-
ployed members of the union by its
officials, Isadore Strassburg, the
Labor Chief" and Brother Leh-
man." secretary.
The workers asked for jobs and
were refused. They gave Strassburg
an argument, and he ordered his
gangster Che usually has three
around) to shut them up. When the
gunman, Sicily, attacked the job
less, they thoroughly beat him up.
The riot squad summoned by
Strassburg and Lehman cleared the
place. The workers held an indigna-
ton meeting outside and even the
police began to question the officials
as to why they called in cops to do
their own dirty work. The officials
told the cops that these were Com
munists. The police captain pre-
sented Lehman with a bill for S148
for the use of the police and the Of
ficials will now try to make the men,

Strassburg and Lehman were
kicked out some time ago by the
members for taking money from the
bosses for not organizing a shop. 1t

REFUSES HUSA,
HOLMES APPEAL
Bosses Court Denies
Usual Procedure

NEW YORK.-The application de-
handing an appeal in the case of
Mabel Husa and Ailene Holmes, two
girl teachers in the Van Etten work
ers' children's camp, now serving
prison sentences, made by the Inter
national Labor Defense to the Court
of Appeals, was denied by Chief
Judge Benjamin w. Cardoza in a de-
ciSion handed down by him yester-
day.
The Court of Appeals sidetracked,
evaded and ignored the attack made
upon the children's camp by the Ku
Klux Khan and the direct evidence
produced by the International Labor
Defense that the district attorney
prosecuting the two militant teachers
OF the camp was with the trial Judge
on the bench during the trial direct
ing the rulings of the court in the
case. Chief Judge Cardoza ruled out
the demand for an application for
an appeal on purely technical
grounds, thereby forcing the two
young girls to remain in prison and
serve their sentences without the
usual chance of an appeal granted in
such cases.
The two girl teachers, Mabel Husa
and Ailene Holmes, serving three
month sentences. were arrested last
August after mob of five hundred
Ku Klux Klanners, instigated by an
employers organization and a local
minister attacked the w. I. R. chill
dren's camp at Van Etten, New
York, kidnapping two of the children.
At the trial, the local patriotic or
CARNATIONS turned out in full force,
using mob rule tactics in the court
room and in the local newspapers.
When the International Labor De-
Tense protested to Governor Roose-
welt the Tammany official refused to
take any action.

KIDS FORCED TO STEAL FOOD

SANDUSKY, Ohio.-Children OF
jobless workers here have ben forced
to waylay children of working pa
rents on their way to school in order
to take their lunch away from them.
This is often the only meal these
children have during the day. The
authorities have "sicced" a dog on
them in the form of the county pro-
baton officer.

There was, at latest accounts, no

A. F. L. Thugs.
The boss at the Zelgreen surrend-
cred all hope of doing any business
when the crowd first began to gather,
before 5 p. m. The few customers
we're chased out and the place crowd
ed with hired gangsters provided by
the A. F. l. Local 3o2 which obtained
the injunction to preserve the 12-hr
day in the Zelgreen.
Police forces and mass violators of
the injunction continued to increase
in numbers until 6 p. m. The police
held the sidewalk in front of the ca
feteria in force, the pickets marched
in masses up and down the opposite
sidewalk, which they filled completely
from house line to curb, from Eighth
Ave. to Seventh. In the beginning
they also marched along the sidewalk
past the zelgreen door, but enough
police arrived by 6 p. m. to block
that.
A solid line of cops, about dozen,
barred the north sidewalk at that
time, preventing anyone coming onto
it from Eighth Ave. Dozens were
strung out, a cop every few yards,
down the sidewalks on both sides Of
the street half way to Seventh Ave.
Two patrol wagons stood in front of
the cafeteria door, with over dozen
foot police around them. Mounted
police rode up and down the street.
Zelgreen Cafeteria wasn't doing any
business. Shortly before six work
er heard a sergeant telephoning ex-
citedly from box to the station
There's hell of crowd, swarming
all around here; send another
wagon!"
Placards Raised.
AT $40 the placards went up and
singing started directly across the
street from the cafeteria. Traffic
stopped. The police fumbled around,
waiting for the pickets to cross the
street. They didn't. They just stood
and shouted. Finally mounted police
charged into the pickets, patrolmen
followed, and one section was driven
into Ninth Ave, and another into
Seventh. The demonstrations con-
tinued, the workers retreating before
mounted and foot police charging
down the sidewalks, and closing ir
behind. Eventually the smaller crowd
on Eighth Ave. broke through or
marched around and joined the
larger one on Seventh Ave This Sec
ton OF the demonstrators, stuck
forming again and again after police
charges, and returning to 34th st.

The police tried their old trick OF
forcing chauffeurs and truck drivers
to play through the masses, but it
was noticeable that in most cases
the vehicles moved so slowly that
they did little damage. Cops could
be heard urging more speed, usually
without getting it.
Finally the majority of the police
and one patrol wagon moved down
to Seventh Ave. Still the demon
strators stayed with 1t until long

FOREIGN BORN
CONVENTION SAT.
Rally Workers for Big
Struggle

NEW YORK.-The national con-
vention of the Council for the Pro-
lection of the Foreign Born meeting
in Washington, D. c., this coming
Saturday, Nov. 80, will vigorously
protest the bills against the foreign
born workers that are slated to be
passed in Congress this winter and
Earl Browder, ]. Louis Engdahl,
Louis Koves, H. Newton, S. Horwatt,
and various language speakers will
speak at mass meeting Friday
night, at Manhattan Lyceum, 66 E.
4th Street on the persecution of the
foreign born workers that is so pre-
valent in the United States today.
The attack on militant workers
who dare resistance to the employ
ing class and the general unrest that
is taking place in the country to-
day because of unemployment is
bringing forth an avalanche of leg
islation aimed directly against the
workers especially the foreign-born
who are using this propaganda
against the foreign-born to obscure
the issues.
One of the most vicious bills COM
ing up before congress is known as
the Ashwell Bill, R. r. 9101, which
makes it compulsory for every for
eign-born worker to register with
the police and carry the registration
car with his photograph on him and
every alien must produce the card
on demand by any petty official. A
record OF the alien is kept on file
in government offices as we'll as pol
ice stations. Sec. of the bill reads:
Every alien in the United States
shall, within the time fixed by the
president in proclamation made
by him within ninety days after
the enactment of this Act, enroll
or register at such time and place
as may be fixed by regulation"
Section of the bill prescribes
that every foreign-born must reg
lister once a year and give any in
formation that is asked of him and
that will eventually. be used against
him by the Ku Klux Khan, the boss
or the American Legion. Sec. 10
providing for the showing of the card
that the worker must carry on him
like in all fascist countries reads:
Every alien shall, on demand,
at any time exhibit his certificate
OF registry to any agent of the de-
partment of labor, to any federal,
state, territorial, or other public
police or peace officer"
With the passage of this bill and
other anti-alien legislation like fin
ger-printing ETC., that is slated to
become federal law, the Council for
the Protection of the Foreign-Born
points out, the worker who happens
to be of foreign origin will be dis
eliminated against and prosecuted
by the capitalist class of America
and its courts in much more vigor-
Gus fashion than the fascist govern
ments in Europe do to any militant
workers who fight them.
At the convention in Washing
ton, D. c., over 400 delegates from
various organizations will assemble
to protest the prosecutions, deporta-
tons, and jailings of the, foreign
born and work out plans for mass
action against the boss class of
America who are behind these drives
against the militant foreign-born
workers.

Rep. Gamers list Of contributors to the republican
campaign chest who have received tax refunds from
the federal treasury reads like a Who's Who, Of fl

The republicans may reply that a democrat IS
again "misrepresenting" the pious republican party
which never stoops to any wrong-in Nebraska. or
anywhere else. But politics being what 1t is, defend
ers Of the republican party will find some difficulty in
showing that there is nothing more than a co-inci-
dence in the fact that large contributors to republic
can campaign funds are treated with great solicitude
in the matter Of taxes.
Mr.. Garner thinks ID significant that every one
Of II contributors Of $4,000 or more to the republican
party has been granted tax refunds. credits or abate-
ments by the treasury. Mr.. Garner might have used
a stronger word. but was content to let the record
speak for itself.
The condition between the republican party and
'big business is a very old and well established
one. It is a pleasant arrangement for both sides. The
republican party Is always assured Of all the money
it needs TO conduct its campaigns, and the heavy
contributors receive favors in return from the govern
ment.
These favors may be in the form OF tariff rates.

sight that former Ambassador Gerard excluded Pres.

What is to be done about 1t? Nothing. so long as

Aviation's Debt to Copper

Aviation has lost a parent in the death Of Daniel
Guggenheim.
The Daniel GuggenheIm foundation for the promo
ton OF aviation was built upon a ~s2.500.000 donation.
Mr.. Guggenhelm founded one aviation school, gave
nearly a million dollars to universities to promote
the study Of aviation.
Good will trips Of Col. Charles Lindbergh and Com
DIR. Richard (. Byrd we're sponsored by him. And all
this in addition to a score OF other philanthropies
all made possible by the wealth he accumulated in
the copper industry.
A millionaire who does not put his money to work
for causes which will benefit mankind does not de-
Isrve the success he has made.
No man who has millions can spend his riches on
himself. There must be an outlet. and a millionaires
greatness is judged largely by the uses to which he
puts his millions.
Daniel Guggenheim's name will go down in the
pages of aviation history. His money was spent TO
make commercial aviation safer. The enterprises he
founded and promoted were utilized to that end.
This new industry we call aviation has advanced
as far as it has. largely because of the philanthropies
Of this man copper made rich.
