Owed To The "Flu"


When your back is broke and your eyes
are blurred,
And your shinbones knock and youi
tongue is furred,
And your tonsils squeak and your hair
gets dry.
And you're doggone sure that you're
going to die.
But you're skeered you won't and
afraid you will
Just drag to bed and have your chill.
And pray the Lord to see you through,
For you've got the flu, boy.
You've got the flu.
When your tces curl up and your tutn-
my goes fiat,
And you're twice as mean as a Thomas
cat,
And life seems a long and dismal curse,
And your food all tastes like a hard
boiled hearse;
When your bones all ache and your
heads a-buzz,
And nothing is as 1t ever was
Here are my sad regrets to you--
You've got the flu. hoy,
You've got the flu.
What Is il like. this blamed old flu.
Ask me. brother. for I've been through.
1t is misery. crossed with despair:
II pulls your teeth and curls your hair;
1t thins your blood and dries your bones
And fills your craw with moanS ana
groans.
And sometime. maybe. You'll got well.
Some call it "hu''-I call it hell!

Fur Union Raiders
Case Goes to Jury
Gangsters Offer No
Defense

NEW YORK.-The case against
the gan3sters who made murder
Gus raid last April on the head
quarters of the Needle Trades Work
ers Industrial Union, and killed one
fur worker and wounded many 9TH
ers at the instigation Of the fur
bosses and A. F. of L. fur union
officials, goes into the hands of the
jury today.
The state rested its case yesterday
afternoon, having called string
of more than 80 witnesses to the
stand throughout the trial, who
identified the gangsters arrested at
the time of the attack, and described
the shooting and smuggling in which
one fur worker was killed and many
wounded.
The gangsters' lawyers we're I'M
able to offer any evidence to offset
the facts brought out by the prose-
cution, and failed to put any of the
gangsters on the stand. Their CHIEF
defense tactics were to introduce nu-
merous legal bubbles and to ask fol
postponement.
The gangsters are charged with
| first degree assault only.

The recent actions Of the A. r. Of
l.. leadership in the various strikes
in New York, in the needle trades,
shoe, metal. building, furniture and
other trades, is sufficient to show
the need for immediate action in
arousing the rank and file against
these misleaders and in their own
interests.

The A. F. of l.. chiefs have proven
that they fundamentally endorse the
strikebreaking policy of the N.RA.
as expressed by General Johnson,
Perkins and Roosevelt, at the 53rd
Annual Convention of the A. r. of L.
The sentiment of the rank and file
must be crystallized into centralized
movement. This movement must be
formed in such manner that the
militant groups inside Of the A. F. of
L. provide a program Of struggle for
the needs of the rank and file for
trade union democracy, etc, which
will unite the very greatest number
of the rank and file Of the A. F. Of L.
The fight against discrimination of
Negroes is an especially important
struggle at the present time. The
codes say nothing Of Negro workers.
The A. F. Of l.. leadership sharpenS
its policy Of discrimination against
and segregation Of the Negroes in the
A. F. Of l..
In view OF this, the Nov. Is rank

Irving Plaza, will mark an intensifi-
cation Of the work in building up a
bread rank and file movement, in the
A. r. I l.. locals in New York. 1t
will take up the question Of carrying
through the decisions Of the End An

Opposition Trade Centers
With the growth Of the movement,
trade centers will be established which
will give guidance to the various
groups formed in the city. National
trade centers will also be established
to coordinate the activity of local

Baltimore Anti
Lynch Conference
Elect AZ Dele g ate S
In Response to
L.S.N.R. Call

NORFOLK, Va, Nov 9.-Forty two
lelegrates representing 80 organiza-
tons, unions, Negro lodges and
churches, attending the Tidewater
Anti-Lynching Conference last Sun
day, unanimously endorsed the call of
the League of Struggle for Negro
Rights for a nationwide fight on
lynching and pledged full support for
the Regional Anti-Lynchins Confer
ence to be held in Baltimore, Nov. ID
and IS. The delegates, representing
over 1900 people, pledged to get their
organizations to elect delegates to the
Baltimore conference.
The Conference enthusiastically en-
do~sed the Manifesto and program Of
the L. s. N. r. and decided to con-
stitute itself a Tfdewater L. S. N. R.,
which will at once try TO affiliate to
itself other organizations and estab-
lish L. S. N. r. branches throughout
the Tidewater region. It decided,
further, to % launch mass cam
paign to popularize the Bill Of Civil
Rights, presented to Congress and
the President by the Scottsboro
marcherS; 90 to send delegations to
Richmond and Washington, and to
bring pressure on Tidewater city gov
ernments to endorse the bill; 80 to
organize mass violations of Jim-Crow
laws and practices, and residential
segregation; a. to organize a mass
defense campaign for Askew, Left
Tich. Benson and Wright.
Attorney H. Dolphin Of Norfolk pre-
sided. Henry Sheppard of the Ma
tional Council Of the L. S. N r. made
the keynote speech in the absence Of
Ben Davis Of Atlanta who was unable
to attend. SHEPPARD ably traced the
social roots and economic causes of
lynchings, the effect Of Negro OPP
preston in forcing down the standard
of life of the poor whites of the
South. He called for united fight
Of white and Negro toilers as the
only means Of combating and de-
stroying the lynch terror.

4 Workers Arrested
in Raid on Brooklyn
Center, On Trial Today

NEW YORK.-Four workers we're
arrested, scores driven into the
streets, and the Scandinavian Work
ers' Hall at Sill Fifth Ave, Brook
Ign, closed down by police, who
raided the place for the second time
within few weeks.
The raids were instigated by neigh
boring speakeasy proprietors whose
trade has suffered since the opening
of the Workers Center In the heart
OF the Scandinavian district, with a
noticeable falling off Of the crowds
which formerly attended the Vanity
Ball Room, which Is operated by the
liquor interests.
At the time of the first raid on
the Workers Center the police used
the pretext that dances were being
held with license. An attorney as
signed TO the case by the Interna-
tional Labor Defense told the COM
mittee they could continue their en-
tertainments as before because the
dances were held only for members
and their friends. Hearing on the
charges growing out Of the first raid
was postponed a week ago for a
special session. The workers arrested
in the second raid will come up for
hearing this morning at the court at
43rd st. and Fourth Ave-, Brooklyn.
At protest mass meeting last
night, hundreds Of workers expressed
their determination to be in court
this morning to defend the Scan
dinavian Workers Center and the
four arrested workers, who are held
on $1,000 bond.

Probing Lynchings

PEN
IT wish you would mind your own
business" Knight told the delegates
who called on him to demand pro-
lection in Tuscaloosa. IF you go to
Tuscaloosa you will be treated the
same as any other of these outside
citizens who are responsible for these
deplorable lynchings. You will be
treated as would anybody else.
ut was the obnoxious, unethical
interference Of Allan Taub and
Frank Irwin which reused disrespect
for the law in Tuscaloosa"
This was the thinly yelled threat
of Attorney General Themes E.
Knight Of Alabama to delegation
of five Southerners and three North
ern liberals which called on him yes
terday on their way to Tuscaloosa to
investigate the lynching of A. T.
Harden and Dan Pippen, Jr., in that
city Aug. 10. The delegation, Or
ganized by the National Committee
for the Defense of Political Prison
ers, is headed by Alfred Hirsch, sec
rotary Of the committee.
Taub, Irwin and Irving Schwab,
International Labor Defense lawyers,
retained by the Tuscaloosa defend
ants, were driven out Of town by an
organized lynch gang and the ma
tional guard, when they appeared in
court. Two weeks later, Pippen and
Harden were lynched while under
guard Of county deputies. Elmore
Clarke, third victim, accidentally
escaped, though badly wounded.
IT am very much interested in
lynching, and in the good name of
our state" said knight, who is pre-
pairing the lynch atmosphere for the
third Scottsboro trials opening in the
lynchtown Of Decatur Nov. 27. IT
don't care what outsiders think. We
know we are doing our duty.
IT am thoroughly convinced the
Tuscaloosa defendants were guilty.
I have investigated the facts. Clarke
is still alive, so cannot express an
opinion of his guilt or innocence"
Knight refused to grant permission
! to examine the Grand Jury records,
either in regard to the original in
dictments against the Tuscaloosa
boys or of the investigation of their
| lynching. The latter grand jury
announced that there was mo evil
dence" on the basis Of which to hand
down any indictments.
The International Labor Defense
at the time presented the Grand
Jury, Knight and Governor B. NJ
Miller, as well as President Roose-
welt and U. S. Attorney General
Cummings with direct charges OF
murder against Judge Henry B. Eos
ter, Sheriff R. L. Shamblin and
