HORIUCHI ON WAY
TO SOVIET UNION
Doak Tried to Deport
Him to Japan

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. IT.
Tetsuji Horiuehi, one Of the Imperial
Valley prisoners whom William Doak
has for the past several months been
trying to deport to fascist Japan, de-
parted for the Soviet Union on s, s.
Portland today. Horiuchi had served
twenty-seven months in Folsom
Prison for organizing agricultural
workers to fight against starvation.
The international Labor Defense
through mass pressure Of the workers
won voluntary departure to the So
Wet Union in record time, this ter
minating a long and bitter struggle
to prevent the deportation of Ho-
riuchi to Japan.
Danny Roxas, another of the
prisoners who was arrested with
Horiuchi, was released on parole by
by the prison authorities one month
after the original time set for his
release. Roxas is now working on a
farm in Woodland and will leave soon
for the Philippine Islands to rejoin
his family.

PROSPERITY TALK
HIDES NEW CUTS
Foster Cites Detroit AS
Proof

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. I'm
his speech before the National Con-
vention here, which launched the
Steel and Metal Workers Industrial
Union, Foster cited his observations
in Detroit as proof that all workers
are faced with new wave of wage
cuts and cuts in relief to the job
less. In Detroit, jobless workers are
forced to live in tents in Clark Park
in the middle of the city, and yet
there are 100000 empty apartments
in Detroit.

ity of the capitalist system. said
Foster, "and is is a sample of what
its further existence means to the
workers"
Prosperity Talk Bunk
Foster scoffed at the ballyhoo
about business recovery" Stocks go
up, now and then, he pointed out,
but production is going down
Right in the midst of the prosperity
talk, last week, the business index
took the sharpest drop since the be-
ginning of the crisis.
"The new prosperity talk has a
two-fold aim," the Communist can
didate said. First, it is to restore
confidence in capitalist parties be-
fore election, and, secondly, it is to
make the workers accept new wage
cuts and especially relief cuts as
something temporary.
But the workers will learn from
bitter experience. Those who think
they will not fight are mistaken

tAdDIc ny AAtpTCCOIIsJ
SHANGHAI, August 1.-THE ses-
sion of the court yesterday in the
farcical trial of Paul and Gertrude
Ruegg was occupied with the read
ing of the court records of August
10, IL and IL, the accused correcting
numerous mistakes, omissions and
distortions in the course of the read
ing. Several of these corrections
were arbitrarily rejected by the pres
iding judge because he didn't re-
member the exact wording of the
statements by the accused.
Refused to Sign Records
The accused then refused to sign
the records since the court rejected
these corrections and also refused to
translate the Chinese text into Eng
fish. The accused also withdrew theft
signatures from the records of the
Supreme Court. stating that these
records also abound with mistakes
and deliberate distortions which were
discovered when the defense lawyer
translated them.
The judge produced a list of the
articles allegedly found during the
police search of the rooms of the
accused. The list was prepared yes
terday by the detectives of the Brit
ish police force in Shanghai. The
accused pointed out that the lists
we're unsigned, unwitriessed and I'M
sealed and therefore cannot be con-
sidered as valid evidence. The ac-
cused requested the court to produce
all articles seized according to the
protocols. This request was also re-
fused after hot arguments between
the accused and the court.
Court In Farcical Trial
In concluding the session, the pres
iding judge announced that since the
accused did not authorize their law
yer to speak in their defense, the
court will appoint two lawyers for
defence according to law. The ac-
cused reiterated their refusal to be
party to the farcieal trial, and de-
clared again that the court was in
competent to try them. They stated
categorically their protests against
the appointment of lawyers by the
court, declaring they will not CO.
operate with these lawyers or with
the court since this is only a con-
tinuation of the same farce and
comedy" This, they declared, was
further proved in the fact that the
proposed lawyers had not even been
attending the trials.

hist candidate for president, and gen.
eral secretary of the Trade Union
Unity League.
James w. Ford, Communist candid
ate for vice. president of the United
States, was in the hall, and both FoS-
ter and Ford walked on the platform
amid the cheres of all. There the
Communist candidates sat, not at
bankers banquets, but at the cradle
of a new organization for struggle
against hunger and to save the lives
Of the toilers.
Just Founded a Union
All the delegates felt and under
stood that the Communist candidates
and Communist Party platform be-
longed to them.
The 140 delegates were Just in a
three-day assembly, August Is to is,
the new Steel and Metal Workers In
dustrial Union. Every delegate was
conscious of the greater tasks and
struggles shed on him as Foster de-
seribed the changes recently in the
steel industry.
In 1929, there were 100000 steel
workers tending furnaces, rolling
steel making Orders and beams that
went itno the framework Of the whole
industrial structure throughout the
world.
Today one-half of these are unem-
ployed. The steel barons have al
ready cut into the lives and stand
ards of living of the steel slaves with
two direct wage cuts and many in
direct cuts. Now 80 per cent Of the
blast furnaces lie coul. The glow of
molten metal has died out and the
masters of this industry are prepar-
ing a third cut, reaching out their
grasping hands to take the last piece
of bread from the hungry mouths
of workers children.
More VIII Be Fired
Even in so-called prosperous times,
Foster reminded the convention, the
mills operated no higher than some
80 per cent of capacity The markets
Of the world have been flooded. The
steel giants, driving their workers
with the lash Of speed-up and ra-
tionalization, have produced too much
for capitalist markets. They cannot
add new mills and they cannot add
new workers On the contrary htey
cannot continue to operate under eap-
italist control without driving thou
sands from their jobs.
All signs point, therefore, to strug-
giles ahead for life itself, Foster warm
ed the steel workers.
VIII Gain Strength
For nearly an hour Foster prebed
to the bottom of the steel and metal
workers problems, and inspired the
close of the eenventine with the snir-
it of struggle and with confidence in
their ability to win over all obstacles
and gain new legions of workers for
an irresistible march to the goal.
"Our union can only live and grow
by struggle" said Foster. "why do
we have to have fighting policv2
Because such an organization as the
Amalgamated Association of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers is a tool Of
the bosses. 1t has been used to pre-
vent the organization of steel and
metal workers. For years they had
an understanding with the Steel
Trust Such an organization is al
lowed small fringe Of workers. Our
union represents all the steel and
metal workers. 1t stands for better
conditions and higher wages for all
steel workers. Therefore it must be
a fighting union because only by
fight can these be won from the ra-
pacious steel barons."

whelming evidence that clears these

Each witness who produces a point

He is charged with conspiracy and

of rich landowners are only too glad
to cooperate as they are all union
