Kuhel. too, has really surprised with
his hitting. In the IA games in which
he has participated since Judge was
hurt the yOungster has batted for a
cool .3o6. That's fine batting in this
year when there are not so many 300
hitters about.
Kuhel has been active in the max

a dozen runs over the plate, but he
also has driven over the final base II

HITS .381 IN STRING,
MATCHING VESTS
One OF. Few Nationals Not
Faltering-Rice Has Big
Day as Club Loses.
BY JOHN Il. KELLER.

- ONE of the Nationals who
were stinging the ball so
~ savagely not so long ago are
faltering in attack these
days, but Heinie Manush is not
one of the lot. When he singled
in the sixth inning yesterday to
help send toward the plate his
sides first run, Manush raised to
18 the total Of consecutive games
in which he has batted safely in
his hitting rampage started in the
opener Of the twin bill with the
Yankees here on July f.
Manush thus becomes the second
National TO run a string of consecu-
tive games with hits to 18. Sammy
West did it early in the campaign.
HIS stretch began on April l6 and went
through May 8. Wesley Ferrell of the
Indians stopped West cold in Griffith
Stadium on May 9.
Feinie has Walloped in his l8-game
stretch more often than Sammy did
in the early season string. Manush in
his splurge has smacked for an average
ot 38I West hit for .342 during his
furry. Both. fine batting marks,
though.
In the 18 engagements Heinie has
been at bat "a times and he has COL
lcctcd 30 hits. But 7 of the games
have been Single-hit ones for him.
And three times he has socked as many
as 3 hits in tilt.
Manush did more than his share of
the work while the Nationals were
winning those nine in a row. and he
hasn't Slipped with his club losing the
last three games.

BERLIN The new emergency
orders issued by the Papen-Schlei-
cher government, which is sup
ported by Hitler, are at present
coming into force. June 20, the
day on which disablement benefit
is paid out, witnessed the most
heartrending scenes of misery and
despair. Persons in receipt of dis
ablement benefit are paid six
marks month less than hitherto;
a mark of rs cents the pensions Of
the widows have been reduced by
five marks, and the orphans
by four marks. The 9th of July
will see the introduction of the oc-
cupation tax, which means new
wage cut of IL per cent and more.
On July Is, the salt tax will come
into operation, which is to bring
in go million marks a year and will
increase the price of salt by 6 pfen-
nigs a pound. At the end Of July
there comes into force the mon
strous cut in unemployment bene-
fit, which reduces the already eX-
ceedingly low rates of unemploy-
ment benefit by a further 10, IS,
and Is per cent and which Is
bound to result in increased and
fearful irnpoverishment of the
working masses. On August 1 there
follows the reduction of war pen

the national oppression of the Ne
groes has resulted in unfortunate
and prejudicial sentiment that has
been stirred UP in Alabama against
the boys" This is tantamount to
saying there was no prejudice against
the boys before the Communists en-
tered the case, that the lynch SEN
fences of the original trials in the
town of Scottsboro. Ala, were arrived
at without prejudice-although it is
a matter of record that the boys
were rushed to trial without being
permitted to communicate with their
parents or to secure legal defense,
that the trials were deliberately set
for Horse Swapping Day to attract
a crowd to Scottsboro, that the first
OF the lynch verdicts was greeted
with cheers and brass band cele-
bration by mob which surrounded
the court house bowling for the
death of the boys. that the brass
band was furnished by local mill
bosses who, with the bourgeois press,
helped to whip up lynch sentiment
against the boys From Pickens'
statement it might we'll be assumed
that the scores of Negro workers
lynched annually ! in Alabama are
lynched-w without prejudice. That the
frightful national oppression and
landlord robbery of these masses is
carried on-without prejudice. .
Workers. MIST Build Mass Fight
The aid given the Alabama
lynchers by the MA. A. C.P. could
not prevent the tremendous vic
tories won so far by the working
class in the Scottsboro case. But
these victories, great as they are,
are partial victories. The boys are
still in danger of legal lynching.
The mass fight Is more than ever
necessary. And herein lies TIE
! sinister significance of the attack
by Pickens on t1le mass fight. The
N. A. A. C. p. assistant hangmen
Of the Negro masses can still rem

lynchers. And this is precisely what
Pickens, Walter White, DR.. Dubois

MISERY
GROWING

The misery and poverty OF the
masses are increasing. On the day
disablement benefit was reduced
there took place in Berlin alone
two suicides of disabled persons
whom hunger had driven to de-
spair. 1t is not unseldom now that
workers or proletarian women faint
from hunger on the streets. The
next few weeks, in which the econ

cy orders come into effect, will wit
ness a further increase of this ter
rible misery of the masses.
Out of the millions squeezed out
OF the impoverished workers and
the poorest of the poor, new sub
ventions are to be granted to the
big capitalists. Millions are to be
expended on the Reichswehr and
the navy. In the budget, which is
now dictated by the emergency or
ders, the expenditure on the
Reichswehr and Navy is fixed at
not much less than $50 million
marks.
Intensified repressive measures
are being carried out in order to
hold down the exploited masses of
workers. Freedom of demonstration
is granted practically only to the

William Pickens, Field Secretary of
the National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People, declares
in a syndicated article that the
Scottsboro fight shas just begun"
And Pickens leaves no doubt as to
which side of this historic battle he
and his organization are on.
At this critical stage in the fight
for the Scottsboro boys, Pickens a.
gain joins with the white ruling class
lynchers in viciously attacking the
mass defense which alone has so far
stopped the bloody hands of the Ala
bama lynch courts.
Enraged by Growing Unity of Black
and White
Mr.. Pickens and his white masters
are devoured by a consuming rage
at the spectacle of white and Negro
workers joining together in angry,
thunderous protests against the lynch
yerdicts, of the challenge of these
workers to the bloody lynch courts.
All over the country, the ruling class
has tried to crush this mass defense
movement. They have hurled their
police in brutal attacks on protest de-
monstrations. They have used their
courts to hand out savage Jail sem
fences to white and Negro workers
protesting the lynch verdicts. The
Wall Street Government, through its
! diplomatic agents abroad, have in
spired police attacks in Germany
France, England and other countries
against the worldwide Scottsboro
defense movement. The Hoover
Hunger and War Government has
attempted to disrupt the European
tour of Mrs. Ada Wright, mother Of
two of the Scottsboro boys.
Mr.. Pickens, together With Walter
White, DR. Dubois and the leaders
of the Socialist Party, support these
brutal attacks on the mass defense
fight. They do everything to disrupt
it. The Socialist Party slanderously
attacks as a Communist racket" the

HITLER BACKS
PAPEN

The Papen dictatorship has the
full support of Hitler. The Nazi
Party is attempting to deny this
fact. 1t was confirmed, however,
by a circular sent out by the Her.
rem Club, to which Won Gayl, the
Minister of the Interior and other
ministers belong, as well as by an
accompanying letter from the
chairman of the Herren Club Won
Gleichen. In this accompanying
letter, dated June 6, it is stated:
THE new Cabinet is not only toll
Grated by the Nazis, but has also
the express approval Of the leader.
''The new Cabinet is not a tram
sition Cabinet, as the press falsely
reports, but 1t will be confirmed as
it is by the new Reichstag, at least
by its prospective strongest party
(this means the Nads-B, 81. In
