While attempting to intimidate
the Unemployed Workers that are
forced to sleep in the lousy Munich
pal Flop House at 25th Street and
First Avenue, 4 cops were beaten
up last night, The attack on the
workers started about l o'clock in
the morning when a cop came in
and started to try and bulldoze the
workers He was made short work
of and then other cops came in and
before the battle was over there had
been a total of four police beaten up
by the workers who refused to be
Slugged One of the cops was
stripped of his uniform and tied into
a bed with bedclothes.
About 7 O'Clock in the morning
two cops tried the same tactics with
some of the eX-Servicemen that are
staying there. They were imme-
diately handled in the same manner
as the four of the previous Tam
many henchmen that were beaten up
during the night.
This expression of the workers
show their readiness to fight and
they must be organized to come out
onto the streets with the hundreds
of thousands of other workers and
fight against being forced to sleep
in lousy flop houses.
All Unemployed workers from the
bread lines and flop houses come
to the demonstration on Union
Square at 4.30 P. M. today and fight
for your right to live as workers
should live. Demand Unemployment
Insurance by organizing and fighting
for it.

result of the opening OF kitchen at
the Harlem needle-trade strike

Workers International Relief yes
tezday.
IN a manner that was not duph-
Gated since the first days of the
strike, those workers, after the feed
ing at yesterday noon. went on the
picket line, singing and shouting,
with determination to win.
These workers were facing actual
hunger, since they were the lowest
paid in the industry. making from
500 to $1,000 week on an aver
age. With no experience in union
ism until row, they have showed a
militancy that must at all costs be
maintained.

seeing the great need of these
strikers will establish two feelings a
day, in the morning and afternoon.
A kitchen will also be opened at
Bryant Hall, And Street and Sixth
Avenue in conjunction with the
Women's Council.
1t is of utmost importance to
show these strikers that their fellow

cutting attorney while announcing
that witnesses were present in the
hall waiyel his right to call any in

his guilt
Comrade Yokinen read a statement
in which he completely denounced
his chauVinistic attitude, censured
himself for not having fought the
manifestations Of white chauvinism
in the Finnish Club.
Hathaway in summing up for the
prosecution demanded the expulsion
of Yokinen, because we had to show
not in words but in deeds our line
on the Negro question, and to re-
member at all times that the Party
is the vanguard of the proletariat
and as the vanguard we could have
no indecisive elements. we had to
have men of iron in order to wage
the struggle against the capitalist
system. We must utterly convince
the Negro masses that the Party will
permit no vacillations, no retreat in
the fight on white chauvinism."
Moore declared that for Commu-
mist expulsion from the Party was
worse than the death penalty and
that he for one would prefer to be
lynched than expelled from the
Communist International.
Alfred Wagenknecht acted as judge.

matter up and wrote 70 A. g. NJ

This Is rather an interesting occur

described once on a single plant IN
California. II is therefore of no
particular significance that this
condition occurs in Raymondville. 4"
Mr. Burwell states that reports
have reached him that IL is not ONLY
in Willacy county that this Is ar
pearlng but that in M Ner ii
fields in the Lower Valley tins same
double growth has appeared. He
laughingly remarked that one farm
er told him that the cause OF the
whole trouble was that the cotton
was being grown in the same ground
that splits and double onions were
grown on and it was bound TO pro-
