BLAST CHARGES
AGAINST LIEUT..
SCHERINGER
E X p O S e Distorted
Documents

BERLIN-The second day Of the
trial Of Lieutenant Scheringer, a for
mer fascist officer, who joined the
Communist Party, began with the
reading of documents forming the
basis Of the prosecution. After the
reading was concluded, the defense
attorneys asked for the release of
Seheringer as neither Collision nor
attempt to escape was likely. The
public prosecutor opposed this mo-
ton and the court refused to grant
the release.
The witnesses for the defense pro-
duced evidence showing that the doc
uments brought forward by the pros
ecution were all written as answers to
requests from former comrades of
Scheringer for information concern
ing Scheringer's changed political
opinions. They also showed that
Scheringer had been flooded with
such requests.
The defense evidence refuted the
contention of the prosecutor that
the documents were written in order
to conduct propaganda indiscrimi-
nately.

Sheboygan Workers
Pack itv Council
On Hearing

SHEBOYGAN, Wisconsin. April 8.
/ Despite the rain, more than 500
workers packed the Common Coun-
Gil Chambers on Monday, April 4th,
to hear the ten Spokesman Of the
Unemployed Council present and
voice the demands of the workers
against forced labor" and script
; payment.
Some time ago the Common Coun-
Gil sent a committee of three, Alder
men Sonnenburg, Kuntze and Bruno
Of the American Legion, to Grand
Rapids, Mich. to study the forced
labor" system in operation there
while the "Sheboygen Press, a dem
ocratic sheet, paid $4,000 for their
trip.

burg and his gang. plus the Amer

to pass q resolution in the Common

should be introduced here in she5oy-
gan. CThey forgot to say that there
is rs dollars debt per capita in Grand

The local papers stated: The &C
ton last night (NTarch 21st) is the
result of request on the part Of the
Prescott ayens Post No. 81. OF the
American Legion that the city ADOPT
similar plan" This shows the role
that the American Legion plays in
this town is starving the workers,
beside their fake block-aid system,
which is miserable failure, designed
to fool the starving unemployed.

hall cheered and applauded wildly

Budapest Socialists Take
Steps to Sell Out Strike
Line Up With Fascist Government AS the
Masses Turn to Real Struggle

Working hand and hand with the
fascist Hungarian government, the
Budapest socialists, alarmed at the
militancy of the workers and the
success of the Communists in win
ming the workers for real struggle,
urged the printers trade unions to
call off the strike which had closed
practically all the newspapers in
Budapest.
A special dispatch to the N. Y.
Times states:
The Socialists. obviously alarmed
at the success of Communist agita-
tors within their party in gaining
the ear of workers, this afternoon
suddenly adopted a milder tone
and advised the printers trades
unions to call off the strike, which
the unions agreed to do. News
papers will appear tomorrow.
The strike, which was called two
days ago following the suppression
of the socialist paper 'Nepszava,"
spread throughout the industrial cit
les of Hungary. Two of the largest
Danubian shipping companies were
tied up and the street car service
was stopped in many sections. Huge

Second Mass Meeting Held to Garry On Fight

Two thousand students demon
strated again yesterday on the Col
umbia Campus for the reinstate-
ment Of Reed Harris, student-editOr
who was expelled from school for
attacking the system of profess
siOnalized athletics in the colleges,
for exposing the rotten conditions
in the Columbia Iunch-rOom, and
for supporting the Student Dele
CATION to Kentucky.
Speakers from City College and
Hunter College expressed their
solidarity with the students strug-
Cling for the reinstatement of Har-
riS, and pledged the support Of
their in this struggle.
While this meeting was going on,
the reactiOnary athletes, who are
paid for their SERVES to the col
lege, and who, therefore, are at
tempting to break up the militant
fight of the majority of the stu
dent body held meeting of their
own on the opposite side of the
street. They soon broke this up
when they saw the students all
flocking to the protest demonstra-
ton, and attempted, unsuccessfuIIy
to break up the demonstration.
Petitions are being circulated
throughout the colleges in New
York demanding the reinstatement
of Harris, and protesting against
the attempts of the faculty to sup
press student opinion.

Ten Cops Beat One
Worker Asking Aid
For Starving Family

Ten husky Tammany cops took
part in numerically beating one tt
allan worker until his face was a
bleeding pulp and his body was
bruised all over by the blows of
clubs.
The worker came to Home Re
lief Bureau at P. S. 102, Arthur and
Taylor Avenue asking relief for his
wife and four small children. The
supervisor remained deaf to his heart
rending story of starvation. The
workers could not take mo" for an
answer, he knew that his children
were crying for bread at home, so
he persisted in his demands. The
supervisor called the cops, who took
him into a back yard out of sight
Of the rest of the workers in the
bureau and taught him that the
bosses intend to answer the workers
cries for bread with blows and blood
shed. This story was reported to
the Daily by an individual employed
by the Home Relief Bureau who wit
