"'We have been getting lot of
letters from the National Associa-
ton for the Advancement Of Col
ored People telling us that you are
going to defend us for the NAACP
and we saw the same thing in the
newspapers this morning. We have
already got the International Labor
Defense and jointly employed Mr..
George w. Chamlee of Chattanooga
and some other lawyers who are
helping MIR. ChamIee and the lid.
We do not want you 10 come and
fight the lid, and make trouble
for Mr.. Charilec just to help the
NAACP. If you want to save us
and help us get a new trial. please
held the lid and MIR. Chamlee.
Our parents and kinfolk signed
papers yesterday for Mr.. ChamIee
to file in the Supreme Court that
Mr.. Chamlee and the lid are re-
tanned by all Of us to fight our
cases. These papers were filed in
the Supreme Court Of Alabama to-
day.
"On the basis of this request from
the boys the International Labor De-
Tense asked Mr. Darrow and Mr..
Hays to cooperate in the defense with
the LID. After an all night session
with our lawyers they refused to do
so. Mr., barrow refused to represent
the boys for the LID when asked
last spring to do so. Also in the
spring and again in July the NAACP
recorder themselves as unwilling to
cooperate. Their entire policy has
been not to help save the boys from
the electric chair, but to fight the
International Labor Defense no mat
ter at what cost to the innocent pris-
opers in Kilby prison."

Fascists Vote
Against Fight on
Emergency Decree

Gable by Inprecorr.)
BERLIN, Dec. 18.--In an attempt
TO mislead workers the fascists in the
Brunswick diet brought in a motion
calling on the Brunswick government
to request the Reich's government to
withdraw the emergency decree. The
Communists naturally supported the
motion and brought in an addition to
the effect that the Brunswick gov
eminent be instructed by the Diet not
to carry out the emergency decree in
Brunswick.
The fascists voted in a body against
the Communist addition to their mo-
ton, thus proving that their own mo-
ton was really nothing but empty
demagogy.

STORY OF MURDER
OF 4 AS TOLD BY
AN EYE WITNESS
Bennett Shot Right At
Workers

DETROIT, Mich.-An eyewitness
account of the unprovoked murder
of 4 Detroit unemployed Is given
in the following graphic report to
the Daily Worker by worker who
participated in the demonstration:
Now that the bloody thugs Of
Henry Ford police have murdered
four workers following the Ford
Hunger March and have wounded
twenty others, the local capitalist
press is trying to find some excuse
for this unheard of brutality.
They say that Bennett, the chief
OF Ford police came out to tell the
workers that there will be jobs for
everybody soon, but as a matter of
fact he drove his car right into the
solid body of the hungry, half starved
and frozen, blizzard beaten Ford
workers, jumped out of his car and
began banging his pistol into the
crowd and when his pistol was emp
tied he hOllered to narby police
man: Give me your gum"
There was no need OF this killings
of these workers; they marched
peacefully from their point of as
sembly at Fort and lakewood Boul-
evard across the bridge into Miller
road, where they were alnbushed by
q v,,oh ~ L1,,o nooted +1,,,o- xr,I-1,
were hidden in number Of vacant
homes under the railroad embank-
ment.
AS they reached that point of the
road, two trains were being moved
back and forth on the tracks at this
| section and on the other side OF this
road there is the river and while the
thugs began to hurl tear gas bombs
the crowd had no way out OF this
point because that road was blocked
by the Detroit police force who
numbered well over a hundred and
who were holding up the traffic so
that the marchers could not back out
of it, by retreating to the rear.
The workers were dispersed for a
moment but as soon as they found
out that the bombs could not harm
them in cold, below zero weather,
they proceeded with their march,
while the cops got cold feet and ran
ahead of the crowd. The capitalist
press says that the crowd was stoning
them, but this is far from the truth;
the cops thought that icy weather
would do better job and there were
the firemen waiting for the marchers
at Dix Road. There the hungry
frozen Ford workers simply ran over
that line of the police and firemen
and kept on marching to the Ford
plant.
And while the whole Detroit city
police force and also the whole force
of Dearborn were modified by Henry
Ford's cousin, the mayor of Dearborn,
and Murphy of Detroit, and Ford
himself watched the bloody terror
against his victims, the local press
has the audacity that Ford did not
know that there was to be march
taking place. What a hypocrite.
Ordering oshoot the workers and
then looking for such an excuse
when the whole community is en-
ragged against this brutality to the
highest pitch.

combat this vicious terror of Henry
Ford and his flunkeysl
