Party Life
BY d. NJ.

ny IL. W.
In the city of H. a street unit was
on the verge Of disintegration. The
unit buro could find no way Of solv-
ing the problem of its members
dropping out and how to establish
its leadership over the workers in
that neighborhood and In the shops
in its territory. Some of the COM
rades tried to explain the situation
by claiming that the territory was
bad"
Through the efforts of the Polish
Buro OF the Party a mass meeting
Of Polish workers was called and a
branch of the Polish Chamber OF
Labor of so members was established.
Several workers in this organization,
expressed their desire to join the
Party. Still the unit maintained that
nothing could be done to check the
decline of the Party membership.
Neglect Important Plant
This same unit chose an important
chemical plant as its point of con-
centration. Here too the unit lack
ed faith in the possibilities Of doing
anything TO organize the workers in
this basic war plant. A group OF
workers in the plant got together
and wanted to establish union group
chemical workers Industrial
League. Leaflets exposing the con-
ditions in the plants were issued. The
street unit was asked to arrange a
thoro distribution. The details OF
the plant, when and at which gates
the workers could be reached and
other information was given to the
unit. Weeks went by and this inn
portant job was not carried out.
A membership meeting Of the unit
was called to go over the situation
and find out why no progress was be-
ing made and what steps could be
taken TO get the unit out Of the rut.
At this meeting the unit buro MEM
bers were very pessimistic. Comrade
II. charter member Of the PARTY
and a leading members of the unit
expressed the idea that nothing could
be done. The same
conrade was asked about the situa- |
ton in the Polish organization and
what could be done to recruit work.

June lIth, by scoring 46 points TO 59
for Kaytee, which took second. Vesa's
strength was chiefly in the girls and
women's events.
The meet proved to be tremen-
dous success, with a larger number
of athletes participating in this event,
an annual feature of the L. S, U.
track season, than ever before.
Non-L.S.U. Clubs Take Part.
A notable feature regarding the
meet was the fact that non Finnish
L. S. U. clubs sent teams, something
that has not happened before in pre-
vious years. The clubs represented
in the meet we're: Vesa A. c., Spar
tacus A. c., Fichte s. C. and York
vile A. c., Of New York City; Kay
tee A. C. of Brooklyn Spartan A. G.
Of FiJchoug, Mass; Toverit A. c. Of
jamaica, and ToYerit A G. of Elmont
and Staten Island. Several unat-
tached L.S.U. athletes also competed.
Much credit is due the Vesa A, G, for
the work done in preparation for the
meet.
A novel feature of the program was
a volley ball game between the Youth
Clubs of Brooklyn and New York.
The Brooklyn team easily won both
games played. The Spartakiade Mass
Drills performed by the athletes of
the various clubs were very impress
siye and went over big with the spec
tators. The results Of the meet are

answered that he was acquainted only
with Comrades T. and G. (both party
members) and did not know much
about the "other workers. Here
was a case when a leading unit buro
member knew only the members OF
the Party fraction in mass organi-
zation, but was isolated from the en-
tire nol-Party mass Of workers in
his own organization.
Need Personal Contact
This unit after lengthy discus
sion was convinced that the only
manner by which we could grow
and extend our influence was through
the members having more personal
contact with the workers. Also know
the actual conditions Of the workers
in the shops and neighborhood.
Having clarified some Of the mat
tiers and combatted the wrong con-
ceptions, this unit will go ahead with
some real mass work.

ANOTHER WRESTLING MEET
SCHEDULED BY L.S.U.

ANU W AAA1C bAANS ~
SCHEDULED BY L.S.U.

other opportunity to do their stuff
in an open wrestling meet to be held
on June IT, under the joint auspices

section Of the Prospect Workers
Club, Bronx Labor Sports Union
clubs, at the latter's hall. This is
the third wrestling meet sanctioned
by the Eastern District Of the L.S.U.
this spring.
With the Spartacus A.C. taking the
lead, wrestling is developing rapidly
among labor sportsmen in New

Marty Flicker, veteran lat FOUNDER,
the Spartacus boys have improved
to the point where they rank with
the best in the L.SU.
In a recent dual match with the
N. Y. Hungarian A. G. a non-L.S.U.
outfit, the Spartacus grapplers took
five out OF six matches, each by a
fall in less than three minutes. The
only match lost, the ITS ID. class,
lasted nine minutes before the Hun
garian entrant finally threw his
Spartacus opponent.
Wrestling enthusiasts expect the
Spartacus boys to give the Vesa and
Esthonian athletic clubs a hard bat
tie for club honors at this, next meet.
First Meet Since Nunan Bill

ed campaign for the repeal OF this
bill. Meanwhile, instead of an ad-
mission price, the meets scheduled

lections TO make up the expenses OF
running them.
Entry blanks for the June 18th
Meet may be obtained at the L.S.U,
office. 913 B'way. The meet Is open

children, Indignantly rejected low
price offer made by the manager on
the condition that they bring no Ne

The committee, led by the Cultural

DELAY TRIAL OF /
ANTI FASCISTS;;
REDUCE CHARGES

NEW YORK-Faced with the in
disputable evidence of the innocence
of IA workers on trial Tuesday ar
rested on various charges at an anti
fascist demonstration when Weld
mann arrived last month police
asked for postponement of the trial
on the grounds that they had insult
ficient time for the case.
This maneuver was obviously to
coach stool pigeons and concoct q
more consistent frame-up than they
had to present, at this time.
Reduce Charges
The presence Of about $50 workers
in court, the arrival of kilograms de
manding the release of the workers,
and the mass campaign underway
since their arrest resulted in the re-
tuction Of the charges of felonious
assault to simple assault in the case
of three, Koeple, Elkin and Ventroff
who were then held under 5000 bail
Police Were the Assaulters
The original charge of "felonious
assault" waS retained against Fred
Closer. whom the police accused 81
assault with a club despite the proof
by the lawyers of the International
Labor Defense that, unprovoked, the
police had charged the iemonstra-
ton with the utmost brutality Gieser
was ordered held in bail Of $500 for
the Grand Jury The others charged
with "disorderly conduct" will be
tried June 81 in the Traffic Court,
Liberty and Bedford ST., Brooklyn,
Police Serve Fascism
The demonstration at which they
we're arrested was on the occasion OF
the arrival in this country Of Hans
Weidemann, German fascist envoy
to the Chicago World Fair. Dozens Of
workers were injured as the police
dubbed the workers to prevent anti
fascist protests.
Hans Wiedemann later sent sffts
and kissed one Of the police on his
cheeks for his service in the Interest
of American Imperialism and Ger
man fascism.

HUNGER MARCH
FORCES ACTION
5000 J o BIS Promised
in Nassau County

MINEOLA, L. Is, 900 unemployed
workers were promised emergency
work jobs by J. Russell Sprauge at q
meeting Of Board of Supervisors Fri
day at which there was a delegation
elected by the Nassau County Hun
ger March that converged here June
9Th.
Relief Had Ceased.
Last month prior to the Hunger
March, practically all relief had
ceased. About $4,000 unemployed
were laid off from relief jobs. The
hunger march was composed of work
ers, farmers and small home own
ers united on program Of work or
relief, no evictions, no foreclosures
and other demands.
When the hunger marchers arrived
here they were joined by 1000 in
support of their demands.
Home of Morgan.
Nassau County is the home Of j.
P. Morgan, whose huge estate is at
Glen Cove and other nulti-mil-
lionaires. Nevertheless the county
officials excused their stopping of re-
lief by saying they were unable to
float loan for that purpose.
The committee leading the hunger
march points out that the 5000 jobs
is a drop in the bucket and would
not aid all those laid off.
The partial victory is squirting on
the workers and farmers to intensity
their struggles to force action on all
the demands presented by the hunger
marchers. Sections Of the county
never involved in unemployed strug-
giles, we're stirred to action by the
movement.
