From all over the country veterans

From Philadelphia a veteran writes
Every ex-servicemsn in the U.

$4,000 in Annual Physical
Culture Parade in Moscow

for their sport activity.
The parade was scheduled TO take
place last week, but because of the
extremely. cold weather it was called
of until today. Before the parade
started, the sturdy bare legged boys
and girls carrying oars, tennis "a
quets and rifles warmed themselves
up by playing leapfrog and other
games. aa
At 8 p. m. the parade began and
for three hours Moscow boys and
girls between the ages of IS and rs
years marched singing the Interna-
tionale and other revolutionary
songs.
A division of crack physical cu1-
turists recruited from the factories
and mines filled the Square as soon
as the parade was over and went
through mass drills syrnbolizing the
Red Army repelling invaders and
the working class carrying out the
five year plan.

these meetings came from Portland.

public sentiment, with the exokR~
sion of Negroes from the jury and
with numerous other errors and
injustices, including refusal 0f
change of venue, resulted in failure
to obtain a fair. trial and there
fore violated the constitutional bin
or rights provisions which, sup"
pOsedly, guarantee a fair trial, and
which, therefore, are ruff reasons
for a review of the case by the
supreme court. The fact that
mob surrounded the court houss.
and that the state militia was
called out. and that machine guns
were mounted on the court house
steps, is, Of course, part Of the
record.
The attorney general Of AlabanA
backed by the NAACP aspersions
cast on the LID. defense, and
backed by the entire Jim-Crow boss
officialdom, determined to disregard
in the most open and brutal way al
sentiments of so-called Justice and
humanity, appeared in the supreme
court when the LID. filed its ap~
peal, and in open court asked and
received, less that fifteen minutes
afterWard, permission To file his OBJ
jections to having any review of the
Scottsboro case at all by the SUE
preme Court. He had not yet seen
the LID. brief, but he said he would
file his objections before Friday, and
that he would contend that the trial
of these Negro boys was fair and inn
partial, and that no error was made
warranting a review of the case by
the supreme court, He insisted that
the sentence of death for the Scots
boro boys was warranted BY evidence.
Every working class organization,
every group of honest inteLectuals,
should at once rush protest kilograms
demanding the release Of the limos

Adopt protest resolutions in your

VET GROUP MOVES
ON TO CAPITOL
Fascist Clique Tries to
Bulldoze Men

WASHINGTON, Ind.-The 300 war
veterans from the west coast, who
we're denied the use Of a B & o
freight trains by the police and Ma
tional Guard in East st. Louis ar
rived here today in a trucks which
they compelled local businessmen to
supply.
The men. 1t is reported, arrived
under the leadership of a rank and
file committee which they elected fol-
lowing the desertion Of the self
styled leader of the march. Walters,
who fled when he learned the Ma
tional Guard was called out. The
group is on its way to Washington,
D. C. to demand immediate cash
payment of the soldiers bonus.
Remnants of the old fascist lead
ership still remain in the ranks of
the marchers, however, and are at
tempting to sidetrack militancy and
the boniflde demands Of the rank
and file. This group has formed a
military police" corps which is car
rying clubs and has made several eff
forts to quiet the worker vets when
they made speeches deouncing capt.

I. L. D, Calls for Giant
Protest Action AS Lynchers
Fight ScottSboro Appeal

The haste with which the capital
list courts are proceeding in their
attempt to dispose quickly of the
Scottsboro case is ominous. Workers
should keep their eyes on these
maneuyers. The recent systematic
campaign to blacken thedefense of
the LID. is part of the efforts to
legally lynch the Scottsboro boys on
June "a. The instructions of the
American state department, through
its consulates abroad, infornally-as
the New York Times reported it
given to the German socialist office
holders to prevent Mrs. Ada Wright
from speaking in Germany, is part of
the concentrated campaign to &C
complish the murder Of the Scots
boro boys. The widespread villifica-
ton Of the International Labor De-
Tense, now being carried on by the
National Association for the Ad-
Vancement of Colored People is ex-
actly calculated-the usual tactics Of
this organization-to pave the way
for legal lynching by the courts.
The Scottsboro appeal was filed
with the U. S. Supreme Court on
Monday by Walter Pollak for the
LID. Pollak's clerk, Emerson, went
personally to Washington to carry
the papers, rather than run the
chance of having the papers lost or
delaked in the mails. The record
has been carefully prepared and
printed in full, The appeal was
filed at 3 pm, as scheduled. The
Supreme Court accepted the appeal
under Amusement, and will decide on
May 81 whether it will consent to
hear the appeal. If they decide to
hear the appeal stay of execution
will automatically be granted. If
they decide NOT TO HEAR THE
APPEAL, it will be necessary for the
LID. to resort to a writ af habeas
corpus, to demand a stay of execu-
ton on other grounds, in order to
secure, if possible, a new trial.
(The argument of N.A.ACP. at
torney that the writ of habeas corpus
should be filed first is silly. No in
formed lawyer would agree)
The appeal is before the capital
list supreme court. The grounds
upon which the appeal is asked are

Organize. Join the Unemployed

There are a few S. L. P.'s here
who are tryin gto discourage the

confusing the workers minds into
the belief that the Unemployed

anarchistic nature. These few pSeu-

Stormy Demonstration by
Communist Deputies Opens
NeaV PruSSian Diet

,peal containing, among others, the
following: The results of the Prus-
sian elections reflected the tremen-
dous intensification of the class
struggle and the growing hatred of
the masses against capitalism. The
fascist demagogic pseudo-struggle
against the system" succeeded in
exploiting a great part of the pre-
vailing discomfort; however, the Hit
Ter Party was financed by capitalism
in order to prevent the masses from
oyerthrowing the system of exploita-
ton and oppression and establishing
fascist dictatorship. Only the
Communist Party conducted a real
struggle against capitalism, the YER
sailles Treaty and the Dung Plan.
Only the Communist Party gought
fascism whilst the socialists contin-
ued their attempts to deceive the
masses and detract from the struggle
outside Of parliament.
The liberation policy of the social
lists have paved the way for fascism
and hampefed the mass struggle
against fsscisrn The Communist
Party will continue to struggle with
all its energy against fascism be-
cause the latter aims to establish q
fascist dictatorship still more brlitalIy;
still more swiftly. However, the en-
ergetic struggle against the Braun
government is continuing and there
is not the least alteration in the
Communist Party policy towards the
socialist party.
The Communist Party Will put for
ward its own candidate for Presi-
dent of the Prussian Diet. The Com
munist Party will face the socialists
and the Center allies with the plain
question whether they are prepared
by obstruction of other parliament
tary means to prevent the formation
of fascist government in Prussia.
