POLISH WORKER DEFENSE
THANKS IL. D: FOR HELP

A despatch from the Polish Inter
national Labor Defense, thanking
the American organization for its
contribution toward the relief of po-
litical prisoners in Poland, gives a
vivid picture of the appalling condi-
tons in Poland today under the Pill
sudski fascist government.
"All prisons in Poland are crowd
ed beyond their capacity with mill
tant class war prisoners" says the
dispatch. "Tortures belonging to the
middle ages are practiced against
the helpless prison victims, and the
privileges of political prisoners, won
through years of bitter struggle,
have completely disappeared"
1.-THE courageous prisoners fight
these conditions with hunger strikes
and are ruthlessly punished with
bloody reprisals by the prison au-
thorities. The growing Indignation
of the workers and peasants of Pc.
land is met with bayonets and bull
lets by the government"
The letter appeals, on behalf of
the leaders who are suffering in
prison, for the united expression of
class solidarity in Poland from the
workers of this country.

TIGHTEN UP AT
NEXT T.U.U.L. MEET
Main Discussion on Tagging of
Organization Behind Influence.

NEW YORK.-The chief topic
under discussion at the next meet
ing of the Trade Union Unity Coun-
ell of New York will be: "Why are
the revolutionary industrial unions
and leagues so weak organization
ally at a time when the theological
leadership of the Trade Union
Unity League is growing? When
the mood for struggle among the
workers is being rapidly trans
ferred into action?"
The meeting will be Thursday, at
8 p. M, at 10 West 17th st.
The discussion is opened, even
before the meeting, with an article
by T.U.U.L. district organizer, Jack
tombstone, soon to appear in the
Daily Worker, pointing out certain
weaknesses needing immediate at
tention.
The meeting, besides a thorough
overhauling of the situation, will
make definite decisions to overcome
the difficulties.
One of the weaknesses has been
the failure of the Trade Union
Unity Council delegates to come to
he meetings. 1t is proposed in
Johnstone's article that the council
ask unions sending such delegates
to replace them with others.

When the picture received its

tings which were the Japanese
adaptation of the principles used in
"The Cabinet of DR.. Caligari," that
famous expressionistic film. 1t was
agreed that this was Japan's out
standing contribution to the art of
the motion picture and the most
serious effort in films to come out
of the East.

1000 Workers J O n

BERLIN, July 4.-Over two thou
sand workers joined the Rhine-Ruhr
strikers yesterday. Minor collisions
occurred. Organized fascist terror
ism in the Rhineland against for
mer separatists is developing. Many
have been manhandled, twenty
seven buildings wrecked and furni-
ture thrown into the streets. The
police are passive, pretending to be
helpless.
The Prussian Government issued
an order prohibiting officials from
membership il the Communist
Party or the fascists, threatening
them with instant dismissal, loss
of pensions, etc. This represents a
breach of the Weimar Constitution
which guarantees political freedom

PACKARD DIVORCED FROM 'DEAD' WIFE
Woman Reappears After Hus-
 band Has Married Again

St. Albans, Vt., Sept. 25 (UP) - George Packard has won a divorce from his wife, who reappeared sev- eral weeks ago, more than a year after she was believed to have com- mitted suicide.
 The body of young woman found in field in Chester was bur- jed under the name of Catherine Rockwell Packard after Packard had identified it as that of his wife.
 The return of Mrs. Packard pre- cipitated an investigation to estab- fish the identity of the young wohl- an buried at Chester and to deter mine whether her death resulted from murder or suicide.
 During Mrs. Packard's absence. her husband had remarried and it was to legalize his second marriage that Packard sought the divorce.
 Mrs. Packard is now serving a jail sentence imposed on the basis of a statutory charge after she ad- mitted having travelled with one Robert Romeo King during her absence.
