JUDGE REFUSES
TO LET J0BLESS
LEADERS APPEAL
Workers to Denounce
Prison Terms Sept. |

NEW YORK.-Acting Presiding
Judge McAvoy of the Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court Of
New York State on Monday refused
the request of the International La
Dor Defense attorneys for an order
allowing an appeal to the United
States Supreme Court in the case
of Foster, Minor, Amter and Ray
mond. the unemployed leaders now
serving prison sentences as a result
of their participation in the Unem-
ployed Demonstration at Union
Square on March 6.
AS result a request was made
yesterday for such an order directly
to Justice Harlan F. Stone of the
United States Supreme Court in
Washington, d. C.
"This latest refusal by Judge
McAvoy is in line with the whole
conduct of the case, in which New
York officials disregarded legal
structures to deny bail and jury
trial to these men, though they
were charged with misdemeanor,
which legally entities them to both.
The fight of the unemployed goes
ahead. September / is designated
as Unemployment Day by the First
National Convention of Unemployed,
which met in Chicago July and 5.
Great demonstration will take place
in all United States cities on that
day to demand the passage of the
Workers Social Insurance Bill. The
bill is proposed by the Communist
Party and sets apart all war funds
and other funds from the national
treasury to the amount of $4,000
100000 for social insurance, espe-
cially unemployment insurance.

piece work, which will mean even
lower wages, more speed-up and
unemployment than exists in the

Workers Industrial Union. The
leaflet calls the cloakmakers to a
meeting today in Bryant Hall, at

will be Ben Gold, Louis Hyman and

The N.T.W.IU. reminds the
cloakmakers of the failure of the
season this time to help them much
and warns them of the winter COM
ing. when there is little work. Many
who waited for July to find them
work now have none, even though
half of August has gone.

Meetings Prepare For
Unemployment Day

NEW lYORK.-The workers of
seven of the largest U. S. industrial
cities are preparing mass meetings
FOR August Is, to greet tn Fifth
World Congress of the Red Inter
national of Labor Unions, according
to information yesterday from the
national office here of the Trade
Union Unity League.
Some time ago the T.U.UL.
urged all of its district organiza-
tions to prepare these meetings
which are also to celebrate the
Tenth Anniversary of the founding
of the R.I.L.U., and to utilize the
meetings as rallying centers for the
September l Unemployment Day
demonstrations.
Build Strike Fund.
Another purpose of the meetings
is to help build the 100000 ma
tional strike fund of the T.U.U.L.
The militant unions are engaged in
marine workers strikes, f d
strikes, needle workers strikes, coal
strikes and others practically all
of the time. Especially in the an
thracite coal fields. a tremendous
struggle is developing over the
wage-cut and no-strike contract
which the Lewis forces seek to bind
on the miners.
The cities in which mass meet
ings are already prepared are:
Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Phila-
delpha, Minneapolis, Duluth, and
New York.
The meetings will draw up and
adopt resolutions greeting the
Fifth World Congress of the RI.
L.U. and these resolutions will be
cabled across to the congress.

Demand War Fun d S
Go to Unemployed

The meagre reserves of the mil
lions of unemployed is rapidly
dwindling, In all big cities thou
sands are being evicted for nom
payment of rent. In Baltimore
cases brought against unemployed
workers for non-payment of rent
has jumped from 35 per day to 100.
During the first six months of
1880, 11,735 working class families
were thrown out on the streets to
starve by the capitalist courts.
Their crime ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
This same procedure takes place in
New York, Chicago, Boston, Phila-
delphia-every place where the
100000 jobless tramp the streets
looking vainly for work.
At the present rate of evictions,
the great majority of unemployed
will soon be on the streets with
their families facing starvation and
death from exposure. Winter is
not far away. This is a threat
against every worker, employed or
unemployed.
While relentless fight must go
on against evictions, the major task
of every worker is to double his
efforts in demanding the passage
by Congress of the Workers Social
Insurance Bill. This bill is being
discussed in all factories, mines and
mills. Discussion alone will not
force it through the bosses govern
mental machinery. The workers
must organize in the shops, in the
Unemployed Councils, in their local
unions, in their fraternal organiza-
tions, to force it through.

The A. F. of L. and Musteite takers
are preparing to protect the bosses
from the growing mil;.ancy of all

Against this all workers must fight
for the Workers Social Insurance
Bill, advocated by the Communist
Party. 1t is this measure alone
which provides adequate relief for
the unemployed, to be paid by the
capitalist government out of its
war funds, and by levies and in
come taxes on the huge fortunes
and incomes of the parasite class.

More Tribes
IOln War On
British Rule

KARACHI, India, Aug. IL. -
Fighting continues in the Northwest
Provinces, with the Afridi tribes
who first surrounded the British
governments fortified city of Pesh-
awar increased by adherence of the
Orakahzi, Chamkenna and other
peasant tribes.
The government air force is con-
stantly in action. When the Cham
kenna tribesmen came out against
the imperialists, the Peshawar com
manders threatened to blow up all
their villages.
Two British residents and num-
bers of the militia were killed when
the Chamkennas rose. The heaviest
fighting today is around Parachinar
and Kohat. Advanced posts of the
Afridis near Peshawar are reported
to have been withdrawn several
miles. The British hail this as a
victory.
British troops continue to flood
into the Sindh, ostensibly to "pre-
vent communal rioting" 1t is ad-
mitted, however, that the troops
make slow progress because the
railroad tracks are cut. Cutting
the tracks could have nothing to do
with any fights between Moham-
medans and Hindus, and this infor-
nation is further evidence that
strong anti-imperialist element en-
tered into the so-called Communal
rioting."
