Mass Defense For Taback Mapped At
Conference


NEW YORK-A program for a
mass defense campaign of Leon Tab
ack who is to be tried June 9Th on
framed-up charge of assault fol-
lowing demonstration at the West
chester Home Relief Bureau was
mapped out and unanimously ap-
proved by So delegates from 81 or
CARNATIONS at Tabach Defense con-
ference Thursday night at the Work
ers Colony Cooperative, Bronx.
The plan calls for the mobilization
of organizations in the Bronx and of
thousands of workers in the defense
Of Taback, who, it was pointed out
at the Conference, is being prosecuted
by the bosses in order to intimidate
the workers resisting drastic cuts in
home relief.
Like Sam GonShak railroaded to
2 years by Judge Aurelio, Taback
took a militant part in the fight
against inadequate unemployed re-
lief and the bosses are anxious to
bury him in jail in the attempt to
remove militant leaders from the
ranks Of the workers.
Bronx organizations will hold
meetings and demonstrations for the
release Of Gonshak, Snipes, and of
all workers sentenced by Judge Burke
Saturday, and against the frame-up
of Leon Taback, who goes on trial
on June 6, on fake charge of as
sault after cops had knocked him
unconscious at a home relief bureau
demonstration.

LONDON, December THE United

foreign exchange session, closed at
5.1o34 to the pound today, 1 cent better
than yesterdays overnight rate Of

The American currency opened today
at 5.11 u to the pound, and appreciated
on fair commercial buying, but offer

Another recovery of cents, to 508.k
followed the announcement that the

after which the rate drifted off to the
finishing quotation.
Holders of French francs were
nervous regarding the French budget
and sold, the rate on the French cur

moderate recovery to 83.40.

from a pass, a sacrifice and double;
then the Nationals began to find the
plate again.
After two were out in the sixth they
picked up score from a walk and two
singles and they got two in the seventh
when they drove Lyons to cover. Four
singles in a row and pass did it.
Lyons left with two out, the bases
crowded and the home run hitting Har-
ris coming up Another circuit clcut
would have put the Nationals in frcnt.
but this time Harris was struck out by
Eeving, the relief hurler.
The eighth found the Nationals still
fighting, but only to get two runs dIe
to Kuhels four-baser with Russell on
the runway.
THERE was a parade of Nationals
i around the bases in the first two
innings of the second game. Four
one-baserS, walk and wild pitch got
four runs and Jones out Of the way in
the opening frame. Successive singles
by Kerr, Thomas and Kuhel and Cos
and the elimination of KimSey in the
second session. A double play had Cff-
set one of the singles, but Schultz
doubled of Miller to get another tally
before the inning ended.
Then the Sox fell upon Thomas to
cross the plate five times and put him
out Of action. They did it with a
triple, three singles and two free
tickets to first. A tumble by Cronin
also helped.
Kerr's stroll. Kuhel's two-bagger and
Manush's single of Frasier in the third
got back two of these Sox scores and
in the fourth Schulte's one-baser and
Harris two-bagger produced run and
brought Faber to Frasier's relief
In the fifth, the home side got q
pair of runs because McAfee paid more
attention to first base than the plate.
There were runners on second and
third bases when Appling tapped to
the pitcher and the latter chucked to
retire the batter and let Swanson
cross. Dykes also bounded to McAfee,
who again threw to first and let
Simmons 60 home.
Goslin got the Nationals their last
run when he parked the ball in the
lower right field stand in the eighth,
but the Sox gave the some crowd a
kick with a two-run rally in the ninth.
Funk's pinch single was followed by
two cuts, but Swanson doubled over
run and Simmons singled over an
other. Here Crowder supplanted Nc
