Candidate Beaten By
Cops At Lynching
Protest
Plan Mass Funeral
ANLC DenOunceS Muir
derouS System

CHICAGO, Sept. IA wave Of
flaming mass anger swept the work
ing class sections of this city today
as workers learned of the death yes
terday, as the result of vicious
police beating of Lee Mason, Negro
candidate for Congress on the Com
munist ticket.
A militant fighter and one of the
leading speakers at the lynching
protest meeting held in this city on
June ID by the American Negro La
bo- Congress, Comrade Mason was
singled out by the sadistic police
of Chicago for brutal beating that
laid him up for weeks. From this
beating he never fully recovered and
yesterday, to the burning grief of
thousands Of Negro and white work
ers who knew him as militant
fighter for the cause of the prole-
tariat, black and white, Mason sue
stumbled to the injuries received at
the hands of the police, faithful
to the last to the class struggle.
The Chicago District of the Com
munist Party, supported by the
American Negro Labor Congress
and other class struggle organiza-
tions will hold a mass funeral for
ComraGe Mason, rallying the work
ing class in huge protest demon
stration against police brutality and
the lynching terror of the bosses
against the Negro workers.
At the same meeting at which
Comrade Mason was beaten up by
the police, Romano Ferguson, mill
tant Negro woman worker, was ar
rested. Her case comes up tom0r-
row. While Comrade Mason lies
dead from the results of the police
beating he received, the capitalist
courts will have the impudence to
prosecute this Negro woman worker
for daring, along with Comrade
Mason and others, to call upon the
Negro and white workers of Chicago
to fight against lynching and other
boss terrorism against the worKing
class.
In statement issued today, the
American Negro Labor Congress
calls upon its members and the
workers generally to turn out to the
mass funeral planned for Comrade
Mason "to honor his revolutionary
fighting spirit and to protest against
the bosses police terror which
caused his death. The A.N.L.C. will
not idly mourn the death Of Com
rGde Mason, but will answer the
bosses attacks with more and more
organization against their lynching
and persecution.

DIES OF SAVAGE POLICE
BEATING; WORKERS OF
DETROIT VOTE TUESDAY
Philip Raymond Is the
Only Working Class
Candidate
Fight Wage Cut Drive
Demand Unemployed
Insurance Bill

DETROIT, Sept. TUESDAY the
m4yoralty election nkes place in
Detroit, with Phillip Raymond, the
first Communist candidate ever to
run for mayor in this city appeal
ing to all workers to vote Commu-
mist.
In its ELECTION campaign, the
Communist Party in Detroit has eX-
posed the growing unemployment,
the wage-cutting campaign of the
bosses, and has pointed out to the
workers that they must mobilize to
force through the Unemployment
Insurance Bill advocated by the
Communist Party.
Raymond received 10000 sigma
lures to place him on the ballot.
The Communist Party has carried
on wide campaign, among the
masses of workers, at factory gate
and huge mass meetings. They
have pointed out that the boss par
ties put forward fake issues, and
that Raymond is the only working
class candidate running for mayor.
It has especially exposed the tao
ties Of Frank Murphy, the boss
candidate for mayor, who puts for
ward phrases about Solving the I'M
employment" situation. Murphy is
supported by the American Legion
and Hearst, chief capitalist dema-
gogue. He is angling for workers
votes trying to utilize the growing
mass discomfort.
A statement issued by the Com
munist Party of Detroit to all work
ers, urging them to "Vote Commu-
nistw says:
Unemployment in Detroit grows
worse from day to day. The auto
plants are closing up. The bosses
are attempting to put the burden Of
the crisis on the workers. Wage
cuts are handed out to those who
still remain on the job. The Com
munist Party in this election has
exposed the boss candidates and
their alliance with the automobile
interests, the gangsters and the
rotten city administration. The
Communist Party has put forward
the only real bill providing unem-
ployment insurance for all workers.
The Trade Union Unity League, of
which Raymond is an active leader,

workers to "Organize and Strike
Against Wage-Cuts The Commit
mist Party fights for full social and
political equality of Negroes,
against police terror and for the
protection of all foreign-born work
ers. Every worker should vote for

killed probably amounted to several
times that number.
British reports blame the failure
to have Gandhi call off, insofar as
he is able, the anti-imperialist cam
paign, upon the two Nehrus, Motilal
and Jawaharlal. 1t is undeniable
that split in the leading ranks of
the Gandhi movement developed
during the negotiations over divi-
sion of the price of treason, offices,
etc. But apparently the British
themselves correctly gagged the
temper of the Indian masses, and
decided Gandhi would be more use
full to them if they did not destroy
all his remaining influence by hav-
ing him lead peace party just now.
Gandhi it is strongly intimated,
would have been willing.
The reason given in the just now
published correspondence between
Gandhi and the government nego-
tiations, Tel Bahadur Sapru and
Jayakar, is that the Gandhi chiefs
demanded dominion status with
right to secede at any future time.
Gandhi's own demands published
some weeks ago asked only vague
promise Of dominion status from the
Macdonald government, and agreed
that sit could not be granted at
present"
In neither case did Gandhi make
any demands to aid the miserable
condition Of the, Indian workers and
peasants.

Remember Ella May!
Stop Bosses Murder
BY CAROLINE DREW.

Ella May, Southern mill worker,
mother of five, sacrificed through
cold-blooded murder to the mill
barons' greed for ever greater prof

workers must suffer, sacrifice and
struggle so that her children and
all Southern children could have a

Less than a year after Ella May

American Spinning Co. Mills No.

where Ella May shaved so to 65
hours a week on the night-shift for
SO week. in protest against new
Wage-cuts.
We find the revolutionary trade
union and political movement has
spread through the Carolinas, Geor-
gia, Alabama and other Southern
states. Everywhere the Negro and
white workers and farmers look to
this movement for leadership in
their struggles against starvation,
misery and disease. The establish
ment of the Southern Worker, the
Communist weekly newspaper, gives
the Southern Negro and white
workers and farmers an opportu-
nifty to speak to each other and have
a collective leader and organizer.
The first duty of the Southern
Worker is to organize all Negro
and white workers and farmers to
stop the attempt Of legal murder
through death in the electric chair
Of six leaders of the Communist
Party in Atlanta, Georgia. The
working class, as a whole, all over

HIGH COURT OK.
ON j0BLESS CASE
Won't Hear 1t; Labor
Demands Release

NEW Notwithstanding at the
Solidarity Demonstration Of the In
ternational Labor Defense Sunday,
J. Louis Engdahl, general secretary,
announced that Justice Harlan P.
Stone, of the United States Su-
preme Court, had refused the de-
mand for an appeal against the in
famous prison sentences meted out
to the New York Unemployed Dele
CATION, William z. Foster, Robert
Minor, Israel Amter and Harry
Raymond.
"This means that the highest
court in the land, without giving
the representatives of the Interna-
tional Labor Defense a hearing, has
upheld the vicious decisions of the
Tammany Hall judges in New York
City," declared Engdahl.
Republicans Unite With Tammany.
Nothing shows better the al
lance between the democrats and
republicans in political office
against the iobless workers of the
nation"
Justice Stone recently returned
to the United States from a Euro
pean tour. While in New York he
refused to consider the case of the
Unemployed Delegation, instead
rushing to his summer home in
Maine, saying he would consider
the case by correspondence. This
he has done by dismissing all de-
mands for an appeal to the U. S
Supreme Court without offering
any reasons for his decision.

NEW YORK.-Dispatches from
Argentina show that, upon the basis
of mass discomfort, due to the sharp
economic crisis, part of the world
crisis, the native allies of American
imperialism have succeeded in over
throwing the government of Presi-
dent Irigoyen, partisan of British
imperialism.
This comes as counter-attack to
the military revolts in Bolivia and
Peru, Unanswered by British inter
ests, which overthrow the dictators,
Siles and Leguia, who were openly
the servants of Wall Street.
Irigoyen, who ruled practically as
a dictator, ignoring the democratic"
parliament, was supported by much
wider masses than Siles or Leguia.
He had, for example, the support in
parliament of the numerically strong
fraction of the socialist" party, sec

GEN. STEPHAN HOPES
FOR CHEST SUCCESS
Merchants and Manufacturers As.
ISOLATION Endorses Drive,
Delano Is Told.

Hope for success of the campaign of
the Community Chest for its 1880
budget, to be launched publicly next
Tuesday. is expressed by Maj Gen.
Anton Stephan as president of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association
in a communication to Frederic A.
Delano. president of the Chest organi-
cation.
Gen. Stephan reported In the letter
that his association, by recent action
of its board Of governors, unanimously
had Endorsed the campaign about to be
launched and extending any possible
aid to the Community Chest In this
work.
1.-THE Merchants and Manufacturers
Association for many years worked per-
Sistently and wholeheartedly for the
adoption of the Community Chest plan
of raising funds for charitable and
philanthropic work for all races and
creeds in the District of Columbia, be-
lieving that this method of financing
social work would increase the efficiency
of service rendered by agencies SO
financed and materially reduce the cost
of raising these funds" the letter states.
THE Community Chest has been a
powerful influence in promoting better
understanding, tolerance and co-opera-
ton between the citizens of Washington
and the groups to which they belong,
and as the result of, its activities has
brought about marked improvement in
civic spirit and united civic endeavor.
This association was deeply graft
ned by the success of the 1929 CAM
paign, and extends the officers of the
Community Chest best wishes for an
even more successful campaign this
year."

CLUB HEARS
/. D. C. VOTE ADDRESS
Paul Lesh Differentiates Be-
tween Present Demand and
Plan of 1870.

''If we believe In the American system
of Government at all, we cannot deny
the right of the citizens Of the District
of Columbia to- ask for representation
on Capitol HILL" Paul Lesh told mem
bers Of the Quota Club last night at
their weekly dinner at the Tally-Ho
Inn.
I'VE are not proposing a repetition
Of that municipal government Of 1870
for the District" he explained. What
we are after is representation in the
House, Senate and electoral college and
entrance into the Federal courts on
the grounds of our citizenship"
He pointed out that national repre-
sentation was especially vital to the
Capital, as 1t Is directly governed by
the President and by Congress instead
of its own local machinery.
Our Commissioners are appointed,
not elected; they can make no laws for
US, lay no taxes nor make any appoint
mentS-the functions of government"
Mr.. Lesh was one Of two speakers at
the dinner. Thomas Callahan Of the
Community Chest committee made q
brief plea for support of the 1880 Chest
fund, telling the Quotians that last
years 81 sources of distribution had In
creased TO IS, making 10 additional
avenues through which the funds 8will
be distributed.
Miss Eleanor Eckhardt, president Of
the organization, was toastmistress.
