Vote Delegation TO
Albany to Demand
Leon Blum Release

NEW YORK.-Forty-two delegates
from IL organizations, representing
thousands of workers, unanimously
voted last night to send delegation
to Albany to demand the uncondi-
tional release of Leon Blum, mill
tant leader of the Bronx laundry
workers strike. Blum was framed up
by the State Parole Board at the in
stigation of the Bronx Laundry Work
ers Association.
The conference, called by the Bronx
section Of the International Labor
Defense and the Laundry Workers
Union, was attended by delegates
from the Steel and Metal Workers
Union, Workers Ex-Servicemen's
League, Post No. IS; four shops of
the Laundry Workers Industrial
Union Union, Women's Councils, and
Workers Clubs. Bronx branches of
the Socialist Party were invited but
failed even to acknowledge the let
ters of invitation.
The conference was marked by the
quiet attentiveness of the delegates
and their evident determination to
carry through the plan of action of
the Resolutions Committee. A per-
manent defense committee of ten was
elected to direct the work of circulat-
ing petitions and preparing for the
meeting, Saturday, Oct. %, from
which the delegation to Albany will
be sent off.
BY unanimous vote it was decided
to invite Robert Minor, Communist
candidate for Mayor, and Andrew
Overgaard, of the Trade Union Unity
Council, to head the delegation.
An important step was taken in the
mass defense of militant workers
when the conference approved a mo-
ton that each delegate return to his
organization with a request for per-
manent affiliation to the LID, and
the immediate election of representa-
tives to the section committee of the
LID.

hunting country for the rich auto
mobile men in the southern part
Of the state. When bears raided
the sheep, the farmers were fined
heavily for attempting to kill them.
Anything to keep enough sport for
the big shots.
The Minnesota farmers, better
organized than those in Michigan,
put up sitter fight. Deer were
eating their clover. They warned
the state politicians, SEASON Or no
season, they would put a stop TO
that. The farmers marched to the
county seats and told the poIiti-
clans that they could not afford to
pay even couple of dollars for
hunting licenses. They would hunt
without any. And they did not
back down on their threat. Game
wardens, many of them Farmer
Labor takers, have been afraid to
make arrests.
ONE reason for all these seasons
and game laws and restrictions is
to keep the use of firearms from
spreading. Among the farmers this
is difficult. The bosses will not hest
tate to arm and deputize thugs and
gorillas against Mexican cotton pick
ers in southern California, against
steel strikers in An1bridge, against
farmers who picket the roads for
higher milk prices. When one of
these toilerS is shot down in cold
blood the gangsters get away with it.
Let an Italian worker kill a flicker
and he Is fined SIS. This is what &C
tually happened in Pennsylvania,
where the good Christian" Governor
Pinchot paid the fine and grabbed
for himself space in every newspaper.
The defenders of claw and order"
must have guns. Sullivan Acts and
other measures deprive the workers
Of bearing arms even though the
Constitution expressly states that
this right must not be infringed.
Hunting is fine sport Like most
sports 1t has something to offer the
farmer and worker. Not only food.
The iron nerve, the firm hand, the
keen eye, all are useful in the sharp
ening struggle.

Berlin, June 21.-(P)-The fighting
units of DR. Alfred Hugenberg, Chan

throughout Germany Wednesday.
Police, assisted by storm troopers

At the conclusion of the raids it was
officially announced that these units,

The blow was decisive one against

have been current for some time Of
dissatisfaction between DR.. Hugen-

Police issued communique saying
evidence had been produced from va

that Communists had joined DR.. HUI

RUSSIAN CROP OUTLOOK
is DECLARED EXCELLENT

Moscow, June 21.-(P)-With every
prospect for an excellent harvest In
1888, even to the extent of possible
exportable surplus, the Soviet au-
thorities moved Wednesday to put
teeth into the quota system outlined
in January.
Joseph v. Stain, head Of the Com
munist party, and President v. M.
Molotoff issued decree suspending
the permission granted last year to
collective farms and individual peas
ants to engage in open market trans
actions in grain and bread. The sus-
pension remains effective until they
have completed the required grain
deliveries to the government.
The decree warns everyone to ad-
here rigidly to the governments plan
and to exert the most strenuous eff
forts to fulfill deliveries at the earliest
possible moment under penalty of
being tried for criminal neglect.
Official reports published Wednes-
day revealed that the 1888 sowing
campaign has been fulfilled 95.4 per
cent, and asserted that the increase
over last year was 5.4 per cent.
