worldwide fight against the at
tempts of the American irnperialists
to legally murder the nine innocent
Scottsboro Negro boys, thousands of
workers demonstrated Friday in front

Defying the efforts of the police

American Consulate, the workers
swept through the city, shouting
their demands for the release of the
nine innocent working class children
and angry denunciations of the lynch
terror of the United States bosses
against the oppressed Negro people.
Hundreds of banners called the in
ternational proletariat to defend
their Negro fellow workers in the
United States
The demonstration was organized
by the International Red Aid, Of

NEW YORK.-The workers of the
United States will join with the Chi

derous terror of the Kuo Min Tang
hangmen who have just added to
their crimes against the Chinese
workers and peasants the murder of
Comrade Hsiang Chung Fa, secre-

In New York City a demonstration
will take place before the Chinese
Consulate, Cooper Union So, on
Wednesday at 4:30 o'clock. Other

Province, where he worked as boat
man along the Han River, near Han
kow. He organized the Boatmens
Union. Later on, he became seaman
working on the steamboats, in the
Yangtse River. He was also a metal
worker in the Han-Yea- Ping Steel

he had an extensive knowledge of the
labor and peasant conditions in va
rious parts of China.
In 1925, he joined the Communist
Party of China, and became one of
