REFUSE BAIL FOR
ANGELO HERNDON
Young Negro Faces
Long Chain Gang
Term

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 5. - Angelo
Herndon, Negro organizer of the I'M
employed, was refused freedom on
bail yesterday by Judge D. Thomas,
sitting in the Fulton County Superior
Court.
The courts refusal of bail sends
Herndon, sentenced to 18 to 20 years
on Georgia'S chain gangs for organic
ing white and Negro workers in strug-
gle against starvation, back to the
death cell in Fulton Towers, where
he has been held since his convic-
ton, under slave code on the charge
of 'inciting to instruction.
In arguing for Herndon's release on
bail, Attorney Geer pointed out the
trial before Judge Lee Wyatt was
filled with errors and that conviction
rested purely on his possession of
Communist literature which is ac-
cepted for mailing by the U. S. Post
Once, and is on file in many public
libraries. He pointed out that the
International Labor Defense already
had filed notice of appeal against the
sentence, and demanded that bail of
$1,000 be accepted for his release.
Judge Thomas refused to fix any
bail, and threatened Herndon with a
death sentence if the brutal chain
g-ng sentence is appealed, declaring
that as an appeal might result in
the defendants being given a capital
sentence" no bail would be set. That
this action was agreed on in advance
between the court and the prosecu-
ton is seen in the failure of the court
to even ask the attorneys for the
State to present legalistic arguments
against the demands of the defense
for Herndon's release on bail.
The defense of Herndon is enlist
ing a constantly increasing number
Of local organizations and individuals,
both Negro and white. Attorney A.
w. Morrison, brilliant young southern
lawyer, has volunteered his services
to the defense and is now associated
with Geer and Davis, Negro lawyers
whose work in the trial established
the basis for an appeal and exposed
the barring of Negroes from jury
service during the past 80 years and
the character of the trial as an at
tack on the Negro masses and the
Communist Party, which is leading
the struggles Of white and Negro
toilers. f

SENATOR'S YELL
BRITISH PLOT
Support US. Shipping
Raid on Treasury

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. Great
Britain was f1ereely attacked in the
Senate on Saturday, and accused Of
plotting to wipe out the U. s. ner-
chant marine in connection with the
tariff and debt war raging between
U. S. imperiaiists and their British
and French rivals.
Senator Copeland, leading the at
tack on the British rivals of Wall
Street, charged Britain with under
taking by secret diplomacy to effect
international agreements "detriment-
al to American shipping" The
charges were used to support the
raid on the public treasury by u. S..
shipping interests who are seeking
huge additional subsidies on the argu-
ment of building up the U. S. mer-
chant marine as an auxiliary to the
navy i'll event of war"
Resentment was expressed by other
senators over the British rejection
of the U. S. demands for trade and
other concessions in exchange for re-
duction of the war debts. 1t was
admitted that the attempts of the
U. S. to break up the united front
of Britain, France and other Europ-
can debtor powers had failed, as

! Street Machado regime. The govern
ment, in its desperation, has invoked
the infamous old Spanish ley de fuga,
or law Of flight, whereby the police
are empowered to murder their pri-
soners on the ground of resisting
| arrest" or trying to escape" The
police already were empowered to
hold political prisoners incommuni-
cado and try them before court-rnaf-
tial instead of in the civil courts.
The dispatches admit the wholesale
murder of political prisoners by the

This belated publication by the
y. S. capitalist press of news OF the
real conditions in Cuba reflect the
growing alarm of the Wall Street
imperialists over the revolutionary
upsurge OF the Cuban masses. With
the growing indication that the Ma
chado dictatorship cannot survive
against the increasing struggles Of
the indignant masses, the Wall Street
imperialists are now laying the basis
for a new intervention in Cuba TO
secure their hold on that island,
which constitutes the main naval
base Of the U. S. in the Caribbean
area and on the Caribbean Atlantic
routes to the Panama Canal. This
new move of Wall Street against the
Cuban people is directly connected
up with the developing war situation
arising out of the bitter fight by the
U. S. Government against its Japan
csc rivals in the Pacific and its Brit
ish and French rivals on the war
debt question and the fierce trade,
debt and currency war. The policy
of the Wall Street government in
holding Cuba as naval base is SINH
lar to that of the British irnperialists
and the labor irnperialists against the
Irish people, in their determination
to hold ireland as British naval
base.
The Communist Party and the
Anti-Imperialist League are rnobilig-
ing the workers of the U. S. under
the following slogans: Against the
Machado terror! Against the scheme
of the Wall Street inperialists for a
new intervention to strengthen the
yoke OF the U. S. imperialism on the
Cuban people! Stop the shipment OF
war material to the Wall Street But
cher Machado! Demand the release
of all political prisoners in Cuba!

ample in Steel and Coal Mining re-

in the form of relief from the vari-
Gus charitable and state and city re-
