POLICE KIDNAP
FOOD PICKETS
Arrest for Delivery to
Gang of Sluggers

NEW YORK.-The two strikes in
the Bronx under the leadership of
the Food Workers Industrial Union
are continuing. One is at McClel-
land Ave. Bakery, the other Zaren-
berg's Bakers, at E. 156th st.
There have been 25 arrests in the
last ten days, but the picketing is
proceeding as strongly as ever, with
the workers more than ever deter
mined, on account Of the attacks of
the fascist gangsters of Local 1854.
The gang led by Busch and Hant-
shuh, agents of Local 164, beat up
one of our strikers, Comrade Kam-
mermyer, who, although outnum-
bered, gave a good account of HIM
self. Last Thursday this same mill
tant worker, Kamermyer, was ar
rested, as he thought, and taken
into the police flivver, driven out
quite a distance to lonely spot
and there forced out of the machine
with a parting farewell of he po-
lice: "The gang is waiting for you
here and you will get yours" How
ever, he made his way back to a
street car line.
A strike in the Max Rubin food
shop, where three workers walked
out, was quickly settled. The boss
complied with all the demands of
| the union.
The Fruit Bosses Association OF
the Bronx was approached by the
scab A. F. of L. gang selling" them
their union, collecting dues from the
bosses without questioning the work
ers or taking into consideration theil
demands.

Says Board Decided
Confessed Lies of the

SACRAMENTO, Cal, July s.
Governor C. C. Young today form
ally denied the appeal for pardon
of Thomas Mooney, innocent of all
crime but held in prison on a life
sentence since 1916 because he or
ganized street car men.
Governor Young's statement
fairly dripped with hypocritical and
sacharine love and affection for
Justice" He said that although
two other governors have denied
this appeal" he made a careful
study of the record" and "was I'M
able to convince himself that
Mooney and Billings were innocent,
but did see that if one was guilty
the other was" and that "both
should have the same sentence"
Yes, He's Satisfied
Accordingly" the Governors
statement continued, at was with
much satisfaction that learned
that Billings had applied to the JUS
tees of the Supreme Court for a
pardon recommendation, for rea.
lized that this would mean an indie
pendent and unbiased study by the
highest judicial body of the State
81 am aware" the Governors de-
cision read, chat this decision will
be disappointing to many, particu'
larly to those who have come to feel
strongly on the subject without
having had the opportunity to study
the case at first hand, but in mat
ter like this | must be guided by a
conscientious regard for my oath

the amazing theory that "even il
they did not plant the bomb, they
should remain in prison the rest Of
their lives because they must have
known who did plant it, and neither
they nor their associates ever tolc

The governor had arranged fol
the Mooney pardon appeal to be
really decided by the state boarC

body can be understood by theil
statement that it did not matter

Comrade Dunno, in his conclud-

the relationship between the con-

wage cuts and intensified speed-up
in the factories, and the feverish

tically martial law. All workers
passing through the main streets

and the occupants quizzed.
All entrances to the city are
guarded by company thugs, police
and armed national guardsmen. The
entire city police force, large
number of national guards and
deputy sheriffs patrol the entire
county. A large number of gang
sters have been imported from Chi
cago by the General Motors Co. in
an attempt to smash the strike.
The Fisher plant is guarded by
police gunner in armored cars.
Also, other plants are heavily
guarded. Dixie Hall, where the
strikers met, has been taken over
by the police and none are al
lowed near it This j: an attempt
to prevent a mass meeting of the
strikers.
All meetings are broken up and
ipany arrests have been made. The

Great fear is expressed for Woods
safety. The police have been
searching for him for days. and
issued open threats against him.
Bail has been set at $50 for
workers from Detroit, and 500 for
