But, the Socialist Party Alderman,
Coleman, who is the former state
secretary OF the SOCIALIST Party, and
the Socialist Party man Seidel, who

The Socialist Party through two of
its prominent leaders, parts of
Mayor Hoan's administration, fought
This motion because, they said "the
city 81 without money"
Socialists Won't Tax Rich.
These Socialist Party leaders never
considered for q moment the taxing
OF the rich, to save the lives of the
! poor. They abundantly justified by
this one act the charge levelled at
them by Foster that the Socialist
Party is not workers party, but is
merely the third party of the capt.

Communist nominee for Vice Presi-

Sunday in Terre Haute, Indiana
The next day, Monday, June 6, Ford

Ford will speak here at 8 pm, at
the Knights of Pythias Hall, at Sen
ate and Walnut SITS This hall is
located in the section of the city
where many Negro workers live, and
the whole section is interested and
reused.
Negro and white workers alike are
sharp in their condemnation of the
Negro capitalist paper, 1.-The Re-
corder' which has been trying to
suppress the news of the Communist
election campaign, although the Ma

by the Communist Party in Chicago
May 1929 and attended by 200 dele
gates from all over the country did
what no other political party has
ever done in America, it nominated
Negro for Vice President of the
United States.
Committees of Negro and white
workers are bringing pressure on this
paper to force it to give some space
to the Communist demands for I'M
employment insurance and to equal

United States if they want to- for
