"BIdck Belt"
Inquisition

The cold FLOODED murder of a
white New Jersey youth In Florida
prison camp has evoked a flood of
crocodile tears from the capitalist
press. According to one of these
organs of Wall Street, "the crime
is so repulsive that if we did not
know it actually happened, VIC
would feel someone was relating
tales from the Spanish Inquisition."
Every year hundreds of Negro
workers are similarity foully muir
dered without a word of comment
from the capitalist newspapers?
The answer Is that by expressing
horror at the murder of the New
Jersey youth the capitalist press
creates the impression the camps
are quite all right, but that this
particular prison camp is bad and
must be improved. BY weeping
hypocriticaI tears at the murder Of
the New Jersey youth, the prostitute
press seeks to whitewash the fiend-
ish oppression which is the lot of
millions of Negroes, not only in
Florida but in the rest of the BLACK
Belt

DEBT AGREEMENT
SHOWN AS SHAN
Secret Pact Aimed at
United States

Strong opposition developed In the
United States Senate yesterday to
the so-called Lausanne war debts and
reparations agreement as result of
the publication of the secret gentle
mems agreement" between the former
European allies in the last World
War.
Crookery of Lausanne.
The gentlemen agreement" CON-
pletely exposes the crookery of the
Lausanne agreement. 1t explodes the
lie that Germany was to be released
from the payment of war tributes. 1t
makes any reduction in these pay
ments absolutely contingent upon
the success of the move, led by
France and England, to force the
United States to abandon its at
tempts to collect its war loans to
the allies.
The present move was accomplished
yesterday by rumors that Hoover had
given secret assurances to the Euro
pean debtors of this country that the
war debts would be cancelled. This
was called near treason by Senator
Shipstead Of Minnesota, who at the
same time admitted that the war
tributes was forced on the German
people in open violation of the terms
of the armistice.
Squeeze German Masses.
The Hearst newspaper chain has
begun lurid campaign against can
collation. by the United States of the
war debts. The New York Sun also
came out in sharp opposition, brand
ing the Lausanne agreement as
trickery, and limiting at other un-
published secret agreements reached
at Lausanne and directed against the
United States. The Sun, however
does not reveal the almost certain
possibility of secret agreement di-
rected against the Soviet Union.
Pope and Hitler.
In the meantime, the Pope pre-.
maturely rushed forward to give God
the credit for the solution achieved
at Lausanne, while the German So
cialists joined with the German
junkers in fulsome praise of Reich
Chancellor Won Papen.
Hitler, leader of the German fas-
cists. in demagogic statement re-
versed his former attitude supporting
Won Papen in the Lausanne negotia-
tions. In an attempt to ride into
power on the rising tide of mass re-
sentiment in Germany, he declared
that the agreement would not be

The action of the local legion gang

S.P TAKES OVER
LIBERAL PARTY
Cleveland Conference
Backs Thomas

CLEVELAND, July 11.-When the
two-day convention of the League
for Independent Political Action
concluded its sessions here, it turned
over all its assets and liabilities to
the Socialist Party-at least for the
time being.
( Led by two college professors, DR..
John Dewey of Columbia University
and Prof. Paul Douglas Of the Uni
versity of Chicago, the conference
adopted a platform which includes
approval of the candidacy Of Norman
Thomas, the Socialist Party's candi-
date for President. s@e
The conference did not adjourn,
however, until it had taken time. off
to attack the Communist Party and
its fighting program. Stirred by a
debate over a proposal made to en-
dorse the candidacy of William E.
Browder, Communist candidate for
Congress in Chicago, Dewey and
Douglas evaded the challenge by
charging the Communists with dis
ruptive tactics"
There was little discussion on
Roosevelt, the Tammany candidate,
and the attendance at the conference
was cut heavily by delegates who are
whooping 1t UP for Roosevelt.
Among those who spoke were A. j.
Music, who also leads sham fight
against the bosses through his Con
ference for Progressive Labor Action;
Feeney, mine misleader ofsEWest Vir-
ginia, and James Dick, an official of
the company union, United Textile
Workers. ;;a,G

STEUR STEAL ........
IS DENOUNCED
400 Depositors Call for
Money Return

NEW YORK.-With about a score
of patrolmen and several mounted
officers on hand ready to strike them
down, some 400 depositors whose
money had been lost In the Bank
of United States failure marched up
to the state building at Worth and
Centre Streets in protest today.
They demanded that Mrs. Max D.
Steur, wife of the attorney who pros
ecuted the Bank of United States
cases, return the $4,000 she with
drew from the bank after closing
hours on the last day it remained
open in December, 1880.
M. D. Litman, Morris Frankel, and
Mrs. H. Gershom, members of the
committee which made this demand,
denounced the withdrawal as an
outright steal"
"Mr. Steur can manage to get
along with less expensive shirt studs
while our families starve. Why, he
spent $4,000 for three shirt studs
alone the other day! Imagine how
much food we workers could buy with
that much money" declared Mrs.
Gershom as she shook threatening
fist
The committee was ide-tracked by
James T. Heenehan, assistant to
Banking superintendent Joseph A..
Frederick. After spending about an
hour with Heenehan presenting its
demands. the committee was told to
put its demands into writing.
When the committee reported the
results of the conference to the 400
depositors waiting eagerly in the
street, the crowd booed and pushed
toward the entrance to the state
building. The police, gesturing with
their weapons, caused the crowd to
disperse.
