Lost Gods" Travel Film of
Northern Africa at Cameo

Entertaining, but not startling, is
the travel film, Lost Gods" at the
Cameo Theatre this week. Lost
Gods" is perturbation of the ex,
eavations in North Africa, in Libya
and in the Sahara on the sites of
ancient Carthage and Utica by the
expedition of Byron De Prorok.
The film is billed as an "all-talkie"
travel film, but that's an exag-
geration, for it really amounts to
an illustrated lecture.
Nothing startling or very new is
revealed. Travel picture after
travel picture has been shown, but
each seems but sort of reproduc-
ton of the last, with the locale
changed a bit.
When someone gets wise enough
to give US travel film with sound,
so that we can hear the various
peoples shown us on the film, hear
their music and their language,
then we'll have something to get
excited about.

NEW YORK.-Jacques Buiten.
kant, attorney for the International

case of Davidoff and Mishkin, SEN

as follows:
"There appeared in this mornings
New York Times a news item re-
porting on the case against Mishkin
and Davidoff, and according to that
article, it states that I made the
statement that the defendants are
not responsible for what statements
the Communist Party puts in the
leaflets distributed by them. This
is absolutely false and untrue, and
l never made any such statement.
"The leaflet was entitled MUIR

stated that that constitutes a Grim.

that that could not possibly be a
libel, when there were three murders
and killings on the streets of New

to wit, the killing of Steve Katovis,
Alfred Levy and Gonzalo Gonzalez.
That these men were killed and
murdered by the police of New York
on public highways, and not one of
them was brought to trial or in any
way convicted.
"That these leaflets do not con-
stitute criminal libels, and that these
people had right to give out these
leaflets on behalf of the Communist
Prrty.

lynch MURDER
IS DELIBERATE
Negro Labor Congress
Calls to Fight 1t

NEW YORK.-The American Ne
gro Labor Congress has made a
statement on the lynch horror now
going on. The Congress says, in
part, as follows:
Confirming the correctness of
the analysis of the American Ne
gro Labor Congress of a deliberate
campaign of lynch terror against
the Negro workers, growing in in
tensity with the deepening of the
economic crisis, the growth of mass
unemployment and the sharpening
of the class struggle, come the four
lynchings at Emelle, Alabama, be-
tween the fourth and sixth of July,
with the governor offering $500 for
each additional murder.
"This terror has been flaming up
for months now and shows no sign
of abatement. Eighteen workers
have been lynched already this
year-seven more than for the en-
tire year of 1929. The customary
charge of rape has not been able to
stand up in these lynchings, has not
been able to cover up the economic
cause.
''In addition to the IS lynchings
recorded in the oppressor press,
there have been scores of myster-
ious disappearance of Negro
workers.
Moreover, scores of Negro work
ers have been legally lynched by
the state apparatus set in motion
against militant Negro workers
("bad niggers," the southern bosses
call them!) by the industrial barons
and big planters when other means
fail Today, in Atlanta, Georgia,
two organizers of the American
Negro Labor Congress and four
white workers are facing legal
lynching in the electric chair for
the crime, in the eyes of the white
ruling class, of advocating race
equality at meeting of Negro and
white workers held under the aus
pices of the American Negro Labor
Congress and calling upon the
workers to unite in joint struggle
to better their conditions.
Deliberate Terror.
"These attacks upon the Negro
masses are not isolated or acct
dental as the imperialists and their
agents, the Negro petty bourgeoisie
(rent-gouging landlords, parasitic
preachers, prostitute intellectuals,
etc. would have the masses be-
lieve. They are part of deliberate
and murderous campaign of white
ruling class terrorism, intensified
by the industrial crisis.
GAS the expression of the rising
leadership of the Negro proletariat,
the American Negro Labor Con-
gress calls upon the Negro and
white workers and agricultural la
borers, of the South as we'll as of
the North, to-:
"Smash the lynching terror of
the bosses,
Support the struggle for full
political, economic and social equal
ity!
Support the demand for self
determination for the Negro masses
of the SOUTH"

the attempt of the G.E.B. of the
Painters Union (A.F.L.) to force
the New York organization to join
tn? crooked, grating building trades
council.
The painters district council took
it's cue from the international bu-
reaucracy and voted to affiliate the
1000 organized painters to the
building trades council. Seven locals
held meetings, and formed a COM
mittee to fight against this action.
Local 905 adopted and presented the
program for struggle which the
Trade Union Unity League adyo-
CO ties, but the committee of the seven
locals voted it down, and picked out
of it for use only couple of points;
non paying per capita, and with
drawing of delegates.
The complete program is:
1. The election of rank and file
action committees in all local unions.
2. The members elected to the
Action Committee must agree with
this program.
8. The local Action Committee
be united into a joint Action Com
mittee.

trict council and to the brotherhood.
5. Against affiliation to tn e

6. Against injunctions.
7. For the seven-hour day.
s. For unemployment insurance

ministered by the workers.
9. Against the speed-up.
10. Against wage cuts-the en-,
forcing of the wage scale.
II. We call on the unemployed to
join the Building Trades Unemploy-

Chief Strike Breaker
Comstock Rewarded
BULLETIN


FLINT, Mich, July 9.-The
metal trimmers, the first to
'trike, have refused to go back to
work unless all are taken back.
The police terror continues. Those
already arrested will be up in
.ourt for examination Friday.
The Auto Workers Union is issu-
ng leaflets pointing out the rea-
sons for the failure of this, the
largest strike in the history of
the industry, and the need for
shop organization and prepare
tons.
There will be strike movement
in other plants. Ford has shut
down for the week end, and has
already fired 20 per cent of his
force outright. Wage cuts con-
tinue.
FLINT, Mich, July 9.--At a
meeting yesterday at Colburn gas
station, ten miles down the high
way south of Flint, 800 Flint auto
workers who had been duped by the
Cecil Comstock company union
voted to join the American Fedora
ton of Labor.
Comstpck had just come from a
meeting arranged by chief of
Police Scavadra with R. j. Whiting,
plant manager of the Fisher Body
Works, at which the boss magnani-
mously assured the workers through
his agent Comstock that he in
tended to blacklist only about five
per cent of them
At the meeting to join the A
F. L., Comstock had himself elected
t. soft job, the salaried head OF
the new A. F. of land company
union--local.
1t was evident from the beginning
that Comstock was doing stool
pigeon work, smashing the strike.
by splitting the ranks of the strik-
ers and fighting against mass pick
citing, and that the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, the Socialist
Labor Party and other takers were
aiding him--besides, of course, the
police and the company. At that
only 800 of the 5000 who struck
came to his latest meeting.
The A. F. L. has a poisonous rec
ord in Michigan. It's state presi-
dent, Wade, had g special house
built for him by the General Mot
ors Co. (owner of Fisher Body Co..
in 1928. Whenever the auto work.
ers of Michigan showed any un.
rest, the A. =. of L. made grant
stand play of organizing them,
spent thousands of dollars on high
priced and harmful officials, ant

of 4 per cent dividend to the I. T.
& T.
That this agreement is closely
connected with the war preparations
of the Rumanian capitalists and
their imperialist creditors is clearly
indicated by the provision that the
l. T. G. T. construct, through its sub
sidiary, Standard Electric, tele-
phone equipment manufacturing
subsidiary in Rumania, which is to
be placed completely at the disposal
of the government Sin case of war"
There is no doubt that the chief in
tention of this is to strengthen the
war apparatus of the Rumanian fas-
cists for an imperialist attack
against the Soviet Union.
The American I. 7. & T. got the
contract away from big Swedish
and German competitors. Com
menting on this, the New York
Journal of Commerce, in its July 9Th
issue, states: "Until a few weeks
ago it was definitely understood on
advices from Europe that the COM
bined German and Swedish interests
would be awarded the permanent
concession, as well as the privilege
of underwriting the loan. The first
intimidation that the American in
terests would be awarded the con-
tract, curiously enough, correspond
ed to the return of Prince Carol to
the Rumanian throne and the de-
feat of the Bratianu 5nfluence in
Ruranisn politics" The "Bratianu
influence" represented European"
as against American imperialism.
