In the 1lrSt pubic meeting pro-

Hall, 125 West both Street, between
Lenox and Seventh Avenues, Negro
and white workers will demand an
end to the subsection of Negro pa

CATION by a committee elected by the
people and doctors of Harlem at the
city'S expense.
The doctors who we're ousted from
the Hospital denounced the N. A
A. c. P. yesterday for its sly attempt
TO stifle real investigation of the
charges. AT banquet tonight OF the
North Harlem Medical Society (whose
members are fighting the hospita
dictatorship it is expected that the
doctors will thoroughly expose tht
N. A. A. G. P.'s secret committee
which is composed Of outsiders
mostly white, who have no knowl-
edge of conditions in Harlem, and
who are enemies of the Negro people
The Amsterdam News still tries to
save the face of the N. A. A. C. P
and help the latter continue It's role
of betraying the Negro people. After
calling for the resignation of the
N. A. A. c. p secretary, Walter White
the paper states In Its editorial on
the whiteWash:
Otherwise, Gf White does not
resign-eO the N. A. A. c.. P. is
bound to lose prestige among Negro
masses, whose plight in America the
organization was conceived to ad-
ance."
The New York Age soft pedals the
exposure of the N. A. A. c. P. and
falsely states the doctors wish an
investigation by Commissioner OF
Hospitals DR.. J. @. William Greet
who is Tammany politician and
close friend of Wright and Conner.
Only the mass pressure and de-
mands of the Negro people together
with the white workers can force the

and discrimination. system against
Negroes, not only in Harlem Hospital
but in every hospital in the city.

LEAGUE BACKS
DEMONSTRATION
Calls All to Protest
in Wall st. Feb. 4
Against Slaughter

NEW YORK. - The New York
branch of the Anti mperialist
League Fundamentally endorses the
call OF the American Committee for
Struggle Against War for a demon
stration on Saturday, Feb. 4, against
the Japanese invasion in China and
against the wars in South America.
It states:
we welcome this call, at such a
strategic moment. 1t is necessary to
tween Colombia and Peru, and Boil
inperialiSt war. The Anti Imperial
list League has carried on such a
struggle since its foundation. We
sent delegate to the Amsterdam
World Congress, there uniting with
all sincere opponents against inn
perialist war. We stressed there the
need of supporting the struggles of
the colonial workers against i'm
perialism and against its native
1agents.
VI 1.-THE imperialist nature of the Jap
tcanese advance in Jehol is clear. But
Git Is no less true that the fight be-
tween Colombia and Peru and Boil
via and Paraguay have as their cause
the rivalry of the United States and
Great Britain for world supremacy
and their preparations to attack the
Soviet Union.
we call upon all anti-imperialists
in the United States, American-born
and colonial workers, to take part in
the February 4th demonstration
Demonstrate against American i'm
pe-ialism In the center of the Wall
Street district. Demonstrate against
tte Japanese robber government and
its consulate. Demonstrate against
the warning governments of South
America.
THE demonstration against the
Japanese consulate about a half year
ago must be magnified many times.
Workers of New York! Come out by
thu tens of thousands to this demon
stration. Raise this question imme-
diately in rour organizations. Stu
dents Intellect lalsl Tonight, imme-
dkately, raise this question in a meet
| ing of your communities and Or
carnations. Support the call, as we
do, of the American Committee for

against the imperialist wars now
being carried on. The workers OF

fire into the strikers and to-
days picket-lines were charged with
the spirit that wins. Young boys and
girls are taking an active part in the
strike, as are the women and Negro
workers.
Seek TO Spread Strike.
A joint negotiations committee,
representing the strikers in all four
Briggs plants, has been elected. The
Auto Workers Union, which is lead
ing the strike, is now aiming to
spread it into a general struggle
against wage-cuts and for better
conditions of the workers in all the
auto plants in this city. A special
leaflet has been issued by the union
calling on the Ford workers to join
with the Briggs men in this great
battle. MEETINGS of the Murray Body
workers and those of other plants
have been held with unusual sue
cess, and preparations for strike &C
ton are going forward full steam

The misleaders of the American
Federation of Labor, who at the A.
F. of l.. convention three years ago
got off lot of ballyhoo about how
they were going to organize the auto
industry and then dropped it like a
hot potato, have appeared on the
scene in their usual Strikebreaking
role. Last night they called meet
ing, but it was complete flop as
the strikers are solid against the
treacherous A. F. of L. chiefs and
for the Auto Workers Union. The l.
w. w. leadership also came to life
and called meeting in the strike
area, but the workers refused to at
tend.
