into bold relief vital the Daily Worker for the toimg
masses and oppressed people of this country For is safe
to say that the Daily Worker had not been IN existence
that April day years when the Scotsboro boys
were taken off freight in Alabama, the legal ynchng
of boys would have gone ahead scheduled Two
three after their arrest the boys would have been
placed after another into the electric chair at by Prison
where their lives would have been burnt out.
1t the Daily Worker alone which Immediately threw
the hot spotlight of exposure this legal ynchng 1t
the Daily Worker which Immediately raised the cry,
The Scottsboro Boys innocent! We must wrest them
from the hands of the ruling class nchers The Scottsboro
boys must go free
The capitalist press of the country where it was not al
t3rther silent about this trivial Incident gave the case
two or three lines back page merely mentioning
the coming execution of the Negro rapists."
The Daily Worker alone hammered home the Interna
ona Labor Defense policy of legal defense backed by mass
protest which stands between the boys and execution.

English language in the U. S. which defends the interests

liInelight the corrupt workings Of the

to administer its affairs.
For almost a week since Mulrooney's
resignation the capitalist press Of the

"leaderless" police force.
But today the curtain was lifted
somewhat and exposed the reason for
the delay in appointing a new police
head. The hold UP was caused by

incomprehensible how it should be

with the U.S.SR. excluded. How, for

in any seriousness schemes for the
