Washington, Sept 25-(UP)-A middle-agcd Virginia country lady, noted for her persistence. recently tried to track down Senator Carter Glass to obtain his aid in getting q relative a government job.
 She failed to reach his inner of- flee. She tried vainly to catch him as he came and went by car.
 A friend warned her that Glass was of an extremely cool and dis tant temperament and wouldn't be interested in her woes. Not daunt- ed she continued her pursuit and finally obtained an audience at the senator's home.
 She reported later that he was elaborately courteous and promised to do everything in his power to place the unemployed relative. Dur ing the course of their chat she mentioned that she was of Louisi- ana stocks.
 The senator sniffed and asked her what she thought of Huey Long-his pet senate anathema. The middle aged lady berated the Kingfish in lively fashion. Glass chuckled.
 The relative is due to get a job. according to latest reports.

NEW YORK.-The German fascist
ambassador, Hans Luther, was greet

Anti-fascist students modified by

on two fronts-from inside the Ho-
race Mann Auditorium where he was
speaking, and by a mass meeting on
the corner of 10th st. and Broadway.
More than 500 students, gathered in
front of the entrance, shouted Down
with Hitler!" and "Oust the Nazi
agents from Columbia!" and heard
Donald Henderson, speaking for the
American League Against War and
Fascism, and others denounce the
fascist murder regime in Germany
which is planning to kill Dimitroff,
Torgler, Taneff and Popoff, the Com
munistS on trial in Berlin, and Nazi
propaganda in the United States.
At one point, the demonstrators,
who had been shunted off by the
police to the corner diagonally across
from Columbia, rushed across the
street and proceeded to hold their
meeting just outside the entrance to
the hall. Police attacked, smuggling a
few, and after a short battle forced
the students across the street. When
the riot squad arrived they found
the meeting going on peacefully, and
tried to break 1t up by using various
pretexts, such as the flag not being
raised high enough. Joe Cohen of the
N.S.L., who was chairman, began re-
citing Lincoln's Gettysburg address.
The police were perplexed and after
hanging around for while, left.
Several students who were handing
out anti-fascist leaflets were driven
away by the police. Ruth Rosenthal,
an N.S.L. member and a student at
Hunter College, was arrested. Her
case was later dismissed In w. 54th
st. court, as several hundred stu
dents who crowded the courtroom and
lined the halls cheered.

20 Strikers Hurt
When Cops Attack
Pawtucket PicketS
Rank and File Wins
Right of Vote for
All Strikers

PAWTUCKET, r. l., Dec. Is.
Over twenty strikers we're injured
during a struggle with scabS and
armed deputies in front of the Ham
let Silk mill in Pawtucket Monday.
One policeman, a state representative
and a number of scabs were sent to
the hospital for treatment of injuries.
One of the scabs tried to run down
q striker who was in his way, so the
strikers swarmed around the car,
overturned it and then set it on fire.
The owner Of the car and his pas
sengers were somewhat manhandled.
These battles are taking place despite
the fact that the United Textile
Workers leaders settled the strike for
s1.90 for 100000 picks-loc lower than
Paterson.
During the entire strike here, the
organizer of the U.T.W. Loomfixers
local, Mr.. Powers. claims to have been
impartial and he kept his men at
work wherever possible. The U.T.W.
leadership is carrying out the same
dirty work In Pawtucket that it did
in Paterson and elsewhere. When
the first ballot vote on the PROPOSE
ton Of $l90 was taken last Monday.
the majority OF the strikers voted to
reject it. Then German accused
them Of stutfing the ballot box. ne
raised the cry that Reds" stuffed
the ballot box, and another vote was
necessary; he said this despite the
fact that only union members with
U.T.W. cards could vote. The union
strikers demanded that all strikers
should be permitted to vote.
After some three days OF debating
this issue in the Union meetings, the
rank and file won their point and
all strikers we're permitted to vote,
although the ballot boxes were under
police supervision. Under these cir
cumstances 1t is obvious that
this time the vote was doctored to
show that the majority voted to re-
turn. The U.T.W. here wants the
same kind Of agreement as Paterson

strikes, but settleemnt Of all grfsv-

Protest March to
German Consul in
Detroit Attacked
Police Club Workers
Who Assail Decatur,
Leipzig Trials

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 13.-Police
this afternoon brutally attacked a
demonstration of 500 workers march,
ing to the City Hall and the Ger
man Consulate to present resolutions
demanding the release of the four
Communists now on trial in Leipzig
as well as the nine Scottsboro boys.
Previously a mass meeting at
Grand Circus Park, addressed by
speakers from various organizations,
elected two committees, one to go to
the German Consulate and the other
to go to the City Hall.
The workers decided to march
down with them, and when they ar
rived at the City Hall they found
squads of police with drawn clubs.
The police Immediately charged the
workers, smashing placards and rum
ming after the workers, clubbing sew
eral severely.
Shortly before the demonstration
two young girl workers chained them
selves to posts on Woodward Ave,
a main thoroughfare, with placards
denouncing the German Nazi terror
and the Scottsboro verdicts. The two
girls we're arrested.
Despite the police terror, Detroit
workers are determined to intensity
their fight for the Scottsboro boys
and the German and Bulgarian
Communists now on trial in Leipzig.
Plans are already under way for par
ticipating in the international day OF
protest set by the International Com
mittee for the Aid Of Victims of Ger
man Fascism, set for Dec. 10.
