enthusiastic conferences ever held
here, 242 delegates representing 13l
mass organizations endorsed the elec-
ton program Of the Communist
Party. The meeting was held at the
Peoples Auditorium, 2457 w. Chicago
Ave. on Sunday, Feb. 8.
Among the organizations repre-
scented we're the Unemployed Coun-
ellis, five Vote Communist Clubs or
sanized within the last five weeks Of
the Aldernaanic campaign. Industrial
unions, shop committees. fraternal
workers organizations were also rep
resented.
The conference enthusiastically
seated the ten delegates from the
John Brown Club which is the I4th
ward republican club. This was an
expression Of the fact that the Ne
gro workers realize that the COM
munist Party is the only true Party
Of the workers, Negro and white.
The conference was opened by Bill
Gebert, district organizer Of the
Communist Party.
He pointed out that the increased
terror of the bosses against our Par

The Communist deputies protested

At the beginning of today's session
the fascist deputy, Stoeher, read a
declaration on behalf of the fascist
fraction in the Reichstag announcing
the latter's refusal to participate fur

The change which has taken place

change which is coming for certain
sections Of the petty bourgeoisie

main ROLAND that he will summon
up sufficient determination to speak
to the broad masses of the people,
instead of to small circle of literary
people. It is the broad masses of the
people who are primarily interested

Hunger told the committee he

some new tear gas bombs. but neither
showed up. The meeting was very

Defy Oakland Police.

Drew and the mobilization Of all the
police reserves in the city, the hun
ger march led here Feb. 10 by the
Council Of the Unemployed got one
block on its way to the city hall be-
fore 1t was dispersed.
When members of the Unemployed
Council demanded a permit of Drew
two days before the march, he said:
'We have 400 men ready to get
Gown upon phone call, and anyone
mat starts a demonstration will be
Arry he was ever born"
Police held the streets for blocks
around Ninth and Franklin, the place
set for assembling the march. No
one could get near that corner.
The state employment agency at
Tenth and Franklin was used as an
asmory for the city police.
The parade formed at Tenth and
Broadway, and Ed ToYnlinson got up
to speak. The crowd and the police
both gathered rapidly, but the po-
lice held back their attack to catch
those with banners. The placard
carriers, however. formed some dis
lance away and marched to the COR
ner.
The parade got part way, and was
attacked. One motorcycle cop was
pitched off his machine. Some 9TH
ers got bruises. Five workers we're
injured by police clubs badly enough
to get treatment at the hospital.
Some Of the paraders got to the
city hall, where police attacked them.

HIGHWAY CREWS
READY FOR SNOW
Flows are Distributed and Snow Fence
is Being Erected; Careful Driv-
ing Is Urged.

An old time winter will not en-
barrass the Minnesota Highway de-
partment and cause the citizens of
the North Star state to stay home for
very long after a snow storm has
blocked the roads, because the depart
ment has taken the usual precautions
to prevent snow blocking the high
ways. The highway engineers have not
been misled by the recent open win
ters, says a highway bulletin.
Although no new equipment or snow
fence has been purchased this year.
Mr.. Babcock believes it is better pre-
pared to keep the roads open than
ever before. During the past two
years nearly 1000 miles of new grade
of the self-clearing type have been
constructed. These roads built foot
or two higher than the older type
roads, with wider side bitches re-
Quire very little snow fence and re-
duce snow blowing to a minimum.
Past experience has helped to pro-
vide a better distribution of snow
fence and snow plows. The entire
system is divided into sections, with
man responsible for each section.
The heavy trucks used for summer
maintenance work are used to push
the plows, which may be attached to
the trucks in a few minutes. The
truck plows, travelling at fairly high
speed, are depended on for ordinary
road clearing, but these are supple
mented with caterpillar and tractor
plows and rotaries to open up deep
drifts.
Although the department is pre-
pared to open all the trunk routes
in few hours after a storm, Mr..
Babcock points out that no amount of
equipment will make it possible to
Usually little if any blowing is done
during heavy storms. To do so would
make ridges which invite larger drift S
and it would wear out the men and
equipment. By waiting until the
storm abates, the men and machines
after the storm.
After cutting the first path through
the snow, the plows come back and
push the snow off the road shoulders.
This is done both to insure visibility
for drivers, as safety aid, and to
make it easier to open the road when
the next storm comes.
Cautious driving in winter is urged
by Mr.. Babcock. Speed is dangerous
and when road surfaces are icy and
slippery. The only safe rule is to
keep the car under control so that
you can stop within the space which
you can see is clear and safe.
