Arrest Brother, Too
The police were chasing strikers
accused of stoning seven scab cabs
at the Baltimore G. Ohio station.
Dreibold did not happen to be a
participant in this demonstration,
but was going by.
The feeble alibi of the policeman
is that his gun went off acciden-
tally when the motorcycle he was
riding in pursuit Of Dreibold's auto
turned a corner.
Dreibold's brother, in the car,
rushed him to the hospital, where
he died. The brother was arrested
by the same policeman who killed
Dreibold.
Pittsburgh district of the Con-
munist Party has issued a sharp
statement, bitterly denouncing the
murder and calling for the organi-
cation of workers defense groups.
The Communist Party characterizes
the killing as a brutal and W.
ardly murder. 1t urges the strikers
to reply by intensifying their mass
picketing, by broadening the strike
to include all transportation work
ers, and by defiance of the in
junction.
This murder, says the statement,
removes the last vestige of the sham
"impartiality" of the police auth
critics in this strike.

Admits Attacks Political.

LONDON, Feb. 20.-Lord Birken-
head, leading British imperialist
opened vicious attack in the House
of Lords today on the pretext Of
the anti-religious movement in the
Soviet Union. Lord Birkenhead's
speech was virtual demand for war
against the Workers Republic.
Birkenhead demanded that the
labor" government come to the res
cue of the kulaks in the Soviet
Union. The lord said that the ac-
ton against the church in the Soviet
Union was due to political mo-
tives," and at the same time revealed
that the religious attacks on the
U.S.S.R. are due to economic and
political reasons.
He pressed the quite willing 'la-
Dor" government to take steps
against the Soviet Union. The faxed
"details" of the religious propa-
ganda started by the pope and
echoed by the whole pack of re-
ligious jackals throughout the world
are dropping into the background,
and demands for an assault on the
Soviet Union is taking it's place with
the open espousal of drastic action
by the imperialist leaders.
Pointing out that the religious at
tacks are not the main issue, Lord
Birkenhead said, eff it is true that
these persections are political, then
the reaction to them in Britain
equally is purely political"

Akron Jobless Turn Out 5000

AKRON, Ohio, reports state that
on Tuesday, 5000 unemployed ans
wered the call of the Trade Union
Unity League and gathered at the
7. U. U. L. hall at 144 E. Exchange
street for demonstration march to
the city Community Fund.
The police chief, whose name,
very fittingly is Boss, sent big
squads of police who attacked the
gathering and for a time occupied
the building to prevent the demon
stration. Two workers were ar
rested distributing leaflets calling
for the meeting, pointing out the
need for the employed to act jointly
with the jobless against wage cuts
and speed-up and for unemploy-
ment insurance, the 7-hour, five-day
week and other demands.
The Unemployed Council attacked
the demagogy and pretense of the
City Council, saying that although
the City Council has appropriated
$4,000 to its fund, it does so merely
for to give the appearance of doing
something, while at least 10000 Of
Akron are jobless."

Pope Wants Private Property
Protected.

VATICAN CITY, Feb. 20.-The
Osservatore Romano official sheet
of the Papal religious dopester clar-
flies somewhat the real issues be-
hind the smoke-screen of a religious
attack on the Soviet Union, in its
today's issue.
Osservatore Romano points out
that at is a pity the powers did not
accept the Pope's suggestion that
recognition of the Soviet Union be
conditioned on Russian freedom of
conscience and religion, and the
safeguarding of church property"
For the Papal dictators to speak
of freedom of conscience" is a
huge joke, but the meat of the mat
ter is contained in their demand for
the Safeguarding of church proper
ty," and of course, the logical mean
ing of the safeguarding of all capt.
talist private property. This brings
out clearly the fact that the imper-
ialists and their religious opium
peddlers fear the rapid development
of socialism in the Soviet Union,
and the elimination of the kulaks
and other capitalist forces of reac-
ton.
1t is for this reason they call for
a holy war lin reality an imperial
list war headed by the chief imper-
ialist power, the United States)
against the U. S. S. R.
