 We are always ready to blame our putting, but often 1t is the sec ond shots 10 the green rather than putting that cause the trouble. The second shots, if not played accu- ratcly, leave us too much to do on the carpet.

N. Y. RESTAURANT
Delegation Demands
Practice Stopped
BY RYAN WALKER

NEW YORK.-Over 500 Negro and
white workers demonstrated Wedne5-
day evening before the Club Res
taurant at 317 Lenox Avenue against
the discrimination and jim-crowisrn
the proprietor practiced against Ne
gro workers.
The delegation that went in to see
the owner demanded that all dis
criminatory practices be stopped.
When the boss refused these de-
mands, many workers, who were eat
ing in the place, arose and pro-
tested along the delegation and left.
Outside the demonstration pledged
to continue to fight against discri-
mination not only at this restaurant
but all other public places.
After the demonstration several
hundred workers marched singing
the International to the Communist
Party section headquarters where an
indoor meeting was held and many
joined the Party.
Police tried to break UP the de-
monstration on several occasions but
the militancy of the workers did not
allowed them to make much head
way.

per, to dispose of the seasons catch
of pelts After being swindled out
of very valuable fur by an unscrup-
ulous white Russian, he is forced to
flee, finding refuge with others Of
his race. The Mongol joins in the
campaign to wipe out and wage war
against his enemies but is soon taken
prisoner and condemned to die. His
execution is imposed on single SOL
der who, not wishing TO shoot de-
fenseless man, deliberately aims SO as
to miss, giving the prisoner a chance
Of life, and then flees.
The Commander of the Russian
forces finds papers in the doomed
mans possession showing that the
Mongol is direct descendant of the
famous Genghis Khan. and he con-
ceives the plan of installing the lat
ter as the chief of the Mongols for
the purpose of wiping out the
rebels"
The Mongol is installed in royalty
but after seeing a country man shot
down in an effort to see him, the
former goes berserk, and leads his
llorsemen in an attack upon the Rus
slams which is termed "the storm over

Wet play, by the noted Russian
writer, Valentin Katayev, will have its
American premiere on April Goth in
the modernistic theatre of the New
School for Social Research, &c East
18th Street. The play, which satir-
ICES contemporary Russian life, will
be given by the Young Circle Dram
attic Studio under the direction OF
David B. Rossi. 1t had a successful
run of four years in Moscow, and was
also heralded in Germany.
"Squaring the Circle" describes the
lives of two Young Communist cou-
pies, who struggle with the present
moral and social problems of life
under the Soviets.
Katayev has been called the mod
ern Moliere and his play has been
praised as one of the finest modern
Russian comedies produced in Europe.
Although attempts have been made
previously to present modern Russian
plays on the American stage, they
were teever quite successful. The
forthcoming production however, has
evoked a great deal of interest in
theatrical circles. since Mr.. Rossi, the

STOP new SACCO-

Paterson Workers to
Demonstrate Fri.

PATERSON, March 26.-"Prevent
A new Sacco- Vanzetti easel" This
will be the slogan of the demon
stration Friday night at 8 O'Clock
at Carpenters Hall, Sc Van Houten
ST., Paterson, when workers will
gather to hear William z. Foster
expose the frame-up of five militant
workers here on murder charge.
A statement issued by the New
York District of the International
Labor Defense, exposing the frame
up by the silk bosses of five workers
for the alleged murder of a silk boss
named Max Urban, says:
"Once more American capitalism is
using the murder frame-up, the
weapon that sent Sacco and Van
zetti to the electric chair, in order
to subdue the militant working class.
Five Paterson textile strikers will
tread the same path as the two
heroic Italian workmen unless the
workers of the entire country act
and act at once. This frame-up is
the direct result of q strike at the
silk mill of Max Urban and is an
attempt to wreak vengeance on the
strikers. 1t is blow aimed at the
entire working class.
'Sacco and Vanzetti went to their
graves because the workers waited
too long before rallying to their de-
Tense. Will the same thing happen
in the case of Helen Garshonowitz,
Benjamin Lieb, Albert Katzhuk,
Louis Harris and Louis Bart? The
workers must answerI At once,

Union and the International Labor

HARLEM WORKERS
FIGHT P Ollie Z

NEW YORK.-A militant. enthuSi-
astic meeting against starvation,
breadline- slops and boss charity
racketeering was held yesterday af-
ternoon at o'clock in front of the
Salvation Army breadline in l24th
Street
The meeting, which was under the
auspices of the Harlem Unemployed
Council, was attacked by the police
shortly after it had begun. Unem-
ployed workers on the breadline, see
ing the attack rushed to the defense
of the speaker and supporting the
Workers Defense Corps successfully
resisted the attempt of the police
to prevent the exposure of the chart
ty racketeers and the rallying of the
unemployed workers for the struggle
against starvation and the March %
demonstrations against deportations
and lynchings. The police, in pur-
suance of the boss policy of separ-
ating the Negro and white workers,
attempted to arrest white speaker,
but we're driven off by the workers.
Although the police reserves were
summoned, the workers still success
fully resisted the attempt to break up
the meeting. The police captain
then resorted to pleas to the IN
employed Council to move the meet
ing across the street. Admitting de-
feat, the police retreated to the jeers
of hundreds of Negro and white
workers.
After the street meeting large
crowd of workers followed the Coun-
Gil to the Workers Center at 1853
Lenox Avenue, where a capacity
meeting was held, the workers pack
ing the hall until there was not even
standing room.
Tomorrow, March %, the Negro
and white workers of Harlem, and
throughout the country, North and
South, will again demonstrate their
solidarity in the fight against per-
secution of Negro and foreign born
workers and for unemployment relief
and insurance.

rent because he had no income.
His landlord, a white usurer, John
c. Webb, sent him a dispossess. The
worker offered to leave, but the
landlord, hearing of the case pend
ing and smelling a possible few dol
lars, persuaded the jobless worker to
stay. He "nobly" offered to buy up
his furniture and to pay the worker
a stipulated amount for it which
would be used for the back rent due.
The worker agreed to this ar
rangement, and lists marking those
things which he would keep and
those which he would sell to the
landlord were made out. Mr.. Webb,
like real spider, had ensnared the
worker. He took both lists to a
notary public, unknown to the
worker, had them altered and got
the notary public to put his seal
upon them. He kept both lists.
TIL eworker moved upstairs into
the cheaper two-room apartment
agreed upon, paying rent amounting
to S12 a month. Every day Grant
would get up to look for work, but
to no avail. Finally a month and a
half passed. One day when he re-
turned home he found his two-room
apartment opened and everything
cleared out. All his belongings were
taken, from some life insurance poll
cies to the very clothes from the
closet. Mr.. webb left a note saying
that he had taken charge" of the
workers property until he could pay
back the rent due to him" The rent
amounted to SIS, and the confiscated
furniture, books and policies amount
ed to neat sum, The policies alone
we're worth $4,000
