According to Brockway, we have
reached a further serious stage in
international Communist policy. Its
policy in the past has been one OF
the factors which have brought Fas-
cism rather than the socialist reyo-
luton in Germany and other parts
of Europe. Now the Communist In
ternat:onal is pursuing the disastrous
logic of this policy. Because there
has been no Socialist revolution in
Germany and elsewhere, because So
Wet Russia remains the one Social
list country, the policy Of the Com
munist international has become so
concentrated upon what it regards as
the interests Of Soviet Russia that it
is seriously compromising revolution

world,

DAYTON, Ohio, Dec. S.
Police dubbed a crowd of 5000
workers who stormed the local
Civil Works Administration Of
flee here, Tuesday, seeking
the 200 jobs which were to be given
out.
Long before dawn, hundreds Of
workers lined up at the door to wait
for the few jobs that were passed
out. When the doors opened at 8
pm, the street before the offices was
filled with workers. The men and
women were packed so solidly that
several were able to walk over the
shoulders of the crowd to secure a
better position in the front of the
line.
In the future, to hide from the
workers the great numbers who are
daily applying for the few jobs which
are passed out, cards will be sent
through the mails to those who have
been selected, it was announced by
the C.W.A. Office here.
Montgomery County, in which Day
ton is located, has quota Of only
1854 jobs under the CW.A. to pro-
vide work for the thousands of I'M

To provide work for these few
workers, $50 projects have been pro-
posed out of which only 20 projects
have been officially approved by the
State Office at Columbus.

BY MARGUERITE YOUNG

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. T.
Talk about lynchings is one thing, In

asked Attorney General Homer 8.
Cummings today what he would do
about the demands he personally re-
ceived months ago for federal inves-
tigation OF the nobbings of Negroes

Il haven't anything to say about
It," replied the attorney General.
And he smiled. And his long fin
gers came to rest in a gesture Of
finality on the bright cigar-lighter on
his desk IN front of his high judges
chair.
He said this, although Just about
twelve hours earlier President Roose-
welt had publicly branded lynching
collective murder" and had said that
the judicial function of government
had fallen into "disrepair" and that

GOVT PLANS.
TO DESTROY
MORE FOOD
To Spend $3.50, 900, 900
to Destroy Corn and
Meat; Consumers Pay

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec.
7.-Another $35O,000,00 will
be spent in the next year,
1884, to substitute the destruc-
ton of corn ard hogs, Roose-
velt's Secretary of Agriculture,
Henry A. Wallace, announced today.
This year, the Roosevelt govern
ment has spent over $50,000,000 to
Subsidize rich farmers to destroy
wheat, cotton, corn crops and hogs.
The Roosevelt government is pur-
suing this program in order to raise
the prices of these commodities in the
cities. The Roosevelt plan is thus to
make the consumers in the cities
shoulder the cost of the food destroy
ing program. The cost of meat and
corn have risen as a result Of this
Notwithstanding plan.
The latest plan provides for fur
ther 20 per cent destruction Of corn
acreage, and q destruction of Is per
cent of the country's hog meat supply
Small farmers, unable to get any of
the benefits of the acreage-reducing
program, are being forced into bank
ruptcy, while rich farmers and the
packing house monopolies are getting
the benefits of the subsidies that are
ultimately paid for by the consumers
in the cities.

Due to the recent strikes of the

the threat of further packing house
strikes, the packing house companies
announced 10 per cent increases in

Brodsky, LID. attorneys, arrived in
the Pennsylvania Station at AT yes
terday afternoon, the terminal re-
sounded with the cries of 1.-THE
Scottsboro Boys Shall Not Die! The
Scottsboro Boys Shall Not Diel"
Nearly 500 Negro and white work
ers-a large number of them from
Harlem-cheered the Scottsboro law
yers as they came into sight of the
crowd. Brodsky and Leibowitz left
Decatur Wednesday afternoon after
Judge Callahan had sentenced Hey
wood Patterson and Clarence Nor
ris to die in the electric chair on
Feb. 2. Elias Schwartzbard and Sol
Cohn, assistants to Brodshy during
the Decatur trials, arrived at the same
time.
A large number OF uniformed cops
and plainclothesmen held the cheer
ing crowd back as it continued the
chant, 1.-THE Scottsboro Boys Shall
Not Die The Scottsboro Bays Shall
Not Die"
AS soon as Leibowitz and Brodsky
came into sight, they were lifted upon
the shoulders Of the crowd who car
ried them outside the terminal.
Pushed backwards by the advancing
crowd eager to catch a glimpse of the
Scottsboro defense attorneys, a score
of news photographers were forced
| to dash forward ahead Of the pro-
cession and aWkwardly striving to get
shots" Of the attorneys as the latter
were surrounded by the surge of the
welcoming crowd.
A half a dozen cops, arms linked,
marched Leibowitz out of the ter
minal. Close to Leibowitz was the
towering figure of Harold Fox, his
250-pound personal bodyguard from
the Brooklyn homicide squad.
Cheering, Long Live the Inter
national Labor Defensel" and 1.-THE
Scottsboro Boys Shall Not Die!" the
crowd poured out of the terminal,
close at the heels of the Scottsboro
attorneys. Traffic was momentarily
halted at 34th st. and Seventh Ave,
and thousands Of workers leaving
shops and offices were attracted to
the demonstration.
All the Scottsboro boys are now
back in the jefferson County Prison
in Birmingham, Leibowitz reported.
Asked whether Patterson and Norris
would be sent to the Alabama State
Prison in Kilby, Leibowitz said that
sit was not likely" Announcement

matically halted execution of SEN
tence, and transfer of the boys to
Kilby, where they had been beaten
by guards, would be vigorously fought
