BOSS ATTACK ON.
BALTIMORE DANCE
Negro-White in Self
Defense; 2 Stabbed

BALTIMORE, Jan. 10.-Two per-
sons were stabbed and many others
hurt in boss-instigated attack by
white gangsters and number of
misguided white workers on Negro
and white workers attending a dance
given by the Workers International
Relief Sunday night on South B'way.
The attack occurred as the workers
were leaving the dance hall The
workers militantly defended them
selves, white and Negro fighting side
by side against the hoodlums and the
police who soon joined the attack.
The two wounded persons were
members of the attacking force The
gangsters and the boss press are
bowling for the blood of Roosevelt
Coleman, a Negro worker whom the
police are trying to frame-up on the
charge of stabbing the two gangsters.
All Dances Inter- Racial.
All dances held here by revolu-
tionary organizations are inter-racial
affairs. The police usually turn out
in large numbers at such affairs in
an attempt to intimidate workers
from attending. Sunday night, how
ever, they were conSpicuously absent.
The gangsters began gathering in
front of the hall early in the even
ing. Everyone knew that an attack
was planned, and all the boss papers
had reporters on hand waiting for
the attack. When the police arrived
they joined with the gangsters
against the white and Negro work
ers defending themselves. The only
arrests made were of radical work
ers, four white and one Negro, as
follows: Gustav Granlund, John Pa
tax, George Hall, Leslie McKenney,
all unemployed marine workers, and
Roosevelt Coleman. The five work
ers are held in 500 bail. The police
failed in an attempt to have Edward
Kleczkowski, one of the wounded
men, identify Coleman as the one
who stabbed him. The arrested
workers are being defended by Ber-
nard AIDES, International Labor De-
Tense attorney. They are demanding
a jury trial, with Negroes on the
jury.
Police and gangsters terrorized the
Negro neighborhood for hours after
the attack in street hunt for Ne
gro workers.
Hungry Workers in NeighbOrhood.
The residential section surround
ing the dance hall is thickly popu-
lated with steel workers and long
shoremen who are starving. The
bosses are especially Infatuated be-
cause Negro and white workers are
fraternizing together. They know
full well that the growing unity of
Negro and white workers is a men
ace to their class rule, their wage
cuts, eviction and hunger and war
program. Thus their increasing at
tacks on the revolutionary workers
and their hideous attempt to legally
lynch Willie Brown and other Negro
workers on framed-up charges.
Working class organizations thru
out the country are urged to rush
protests to Mayor H. w. Jackson of
Baltimore, demanding the release of
the five arrested workers, the right
of Negro and white workers to fra
ternize and organize against starva-
ton, and the unconditional release
of Willie Brown.

over 4,UOU families on the l1SC 10 De
evicted. This affects about 10000
people.
The "relief" which the unemployed
get is distributed by the commissary.
Many families are being discrimi-
mated against and insulted before
they get their bundle. No cash
whatever is given, and when one
asks for spool of cotton to fix the
ragged clothes of the children, he is
refused.
Sinking Meat.
One worker said; I'm my grocery
order 1 receive some meat and when
/ brought this home there was such
a stencil that I couldn't unwrap it..
I took this meat back and threw it
on the table in the comrnissary's Of
fee and I told him, you wouldn't
feed your dog this meat, why in the
hell did you give it for my children?
How is it that you bunch of para
sites try to tell us what we shall eat
and how we shall eat.
This enraged the politicians there
and one lady, Mrs. Mcdonald took
out her monocle and looked at me
so curiously and viciously. I gave
her a good look alright. These fat
bellies couldn't stand it. The Com
missary threatened me that I
shouldn't speak that way, but the
next day mass committee of so
of the Unemployed Council invaded
the commissar's Office. He was COM
PEELED to let us in and we had a
meeting inside to protest against the
rotten food distributed there"
There are many workers in Erie
who are actually starving. Only six
weeks ago baby of six weeks died
of starvation. The family had moth
ing to eat for days. Doctor Smith
of the health department admitted
that this baby died of starvation.
S4OO Monthly for Dietician.
The city officials have now hired
special dietician to pay him $40O
a month. His work will consist OF
working out menu on how to keep
the unemployed workers on a starv-
ing level and still keep soul and body
together.
OF course this starvation diet is
meant not only for the unemployed
workers of Erie but for the employed
workers as well. 1t aims to cut the
wages to the bone and to show that
they can get along on this starvation
diet.
The Unemployed Council is calling
a mass protest demonstration on
Jan. IL to protest this wholesale eyic-
ton and to demand relief.

HOTEL DE HOOVER

NEW HAVEN, Conn.--Some capt.
talist concern, having large square
boiler on their hands, and wanting to
discard it, carted it to the public
dump in Hamden. AS the movers
dumped it off the truck, it rolled
down into the meadow.
The opening was exposed to the
north. Unintentially they created a
Hotel de Hoover. While the north
wind howled down the valley, the
unemployed have made it their
home. Their bedding consists OF
newspapers and burlap bags, with
some crush over the opening.

Transcript, that this is the best

PUTILOV PLANT TO MAKE
PASSENGER CARS

Ten experimental cars by May LIST!
The first plant in the Soviet Union to
make tractors, the famous Red Put
ilov Plant in Leningrad, is now going
to try its hand at making high
powered passenger cars. The new
machine, designed by Russian en-
gineers, has been named the LII. 1t
is a ven-passenger, eight-cylinder
car with 100 HIP, and a top speed
| of 10 miles per hour.
! 1t will embody the last word In
modern automobile design, having
automatic clutch, compensated
brakes, synchronized transmission
with silent second, and torsional Vi
bration damper on the crankshaft.
The springs will be equipped with
driver controlled shock absorbers.
The extent of the task is appre-
ciated when we recall that tractor
has 700 parts, while the passenger
car will have $500 different parts.
The Putilov Plant will have to turn
out new types of spring and silchrome
steel and will have to do accurate
collaborating of bar stock down to
HOO inch in diameter in order to
handle this new job.
Pistons, differentials and other
parts have already been made, while
chassis, gas tanks and radiators are
now under way. The annual cap
acity of the plant is estimated at
10000 passenger cars.
This represents new advance for
Soviet technique in one of the most
highly-skilled branches of metal
manufacturing Congratulations!

5-YEAR PLAN Big
SUCCESS STAIN
Created Basis for the
Classics Society
CONTINUED FROM PAGE oNE

Plan consisted in finding and grasp
ing the basic link in the chain of
tasks, namely, the development of
heJvy industry. The Communist
Patty was well aware of the tremen-
dous difficulties involved in this task.
Industry has been built up without
the aid of loans or the proceeds of
the robbery of other countries. The
bold and difficult plan involved SER
ious sacrifices, but the Party's faith
in the workers has been justified by
thu, fulfilment of the Five-Year Plan
in four years. The results Of the
plan in industry were a greater VIC
tory than that had been expected
even by the Party's greatest en-
!, thIsiastS.
Stain reviewed the striking sue
cesses in the creation of iron and
steel bases, in machine construc-
ton, aviation, generation of electri-
city, ETC.. and pointed out that the
result was the final, irrevocable
ousting of the capitalist elements
and the creation of socialist industry
assthe sole form Of industry in the
Soviet Union.
Summarizing the industrial results,
stain said that the Five-Year Plan
has been fulfilled in four years and
three months by 93.7 per cent, with
the volume of production tripled in
comparison with pre-war and more
than doubled in comparison with
1928. In heavy industry the Plan
has been fulfilled 108 percent. The
failure to realize the full 100 per
cent Of the industrial plan was due
to the fact that the refusal of the
neighboring countries to sign non
aggression pacts and the complica-
lions in the Far East made it neces-
sary for us to switch a number of
plants to the production Of modern
weapons of defense for the purpose
of strengthening our defense" This
switching resulted in the Interrupt
ton of industrial production and af-
fected the plan for months, ex-
planning the fact that the general
industrial plan has been fulfilled only
937 per cent.
On the other hand, Stain pointed
out: "This operation resulted in fully
making good the defects in the de-
fensive capacity of the country.
From country that was weak and
unprepared for defense, the Soviet
Union has become a powerful coun-
try in defensive capacity country
prepared for all emergencies, a
country capable OF producing on a
mass scale all modern weapons of
defense and to equip with them our
army in case of an attack from the
outside"

fallen from par value of 1885 cents

Masses Demand Action
The Japanese invasion and the
traitorous non-resistance policy OF
the Marking Government has evoked
a tremendous outburst of mass in
dignation throughout China. Work
ers and students have demonstrated
in Shanghai. Peiping and other
cities under the slogans OF Defend
China!", Down with Japanese I'M
perialism!", Down with the Nam
king traitorsw The position of the
Marking Government is reported
becoming increasingly shaky under
the rising blows of the tremendous
mass upsurge. Workers and students
in many sections of China are in
creasingly sympathetic to the call
of the Chinese Communist Party for
an armed peoples war against the
invaders and the Marking betrayers
of China.
Thousands of workers and students
demonstrated in Peiping on the occa-
sion of the arrival of the body OF
Colonel An Te-ching, commander OF
Shanhaikwan's Battalion of Death,
which was wiped out by the Japan
ese attack and the failure OF the
Marking militarists to send them re-
Inducements.
Students on Strike
Eight hundred students of YEN
ching University and 1000 of Using
hua University-the former con-
trolled by U. S. imperialists-are on
strike in protest against the Marking
Government and its support of the
proceeding partition of China by
Japanese and other imperialists. The
strike is reported spreading to other
universities and schools. The stu
dents have refused to take examina-
lions and are picketing the two uni
versities.
Issue Paper Orders
In an attempt to placate and de-
ceive the angry masses, the Marking
Government has issued paper orders
to it's North China commander, Mar
shall Chang Hsiao-ling, to defend
China" These orders are so patent
ly hypocrtical maneuver that even
the inperialist press comments on
the fact that the Marking Govern
ment has not sent "a cent or
single cartridge" for the defense.
Meanwhile, Chang Kai-shek, Nam
king dictator, is holding secret con-
ference with Marshal Chang at a
secret place between Hankow and
Peiping, to which both went by air.
planes. The Marking Government
has already made overtures to the
Japanese invaders for truce at
Shanhaikwan, in line with the in
structions to Marking by U. S. and
British imperialists who wish to d.
vert the Japanese invasion to Jehol
Province and the borders Of the So
Wet Union and Monaghan Peoples
Republic and away from U. s. and
British loot and investments In

made in the Jewish language-not a
corrupt dialect, but the literary
tongue. The talkie is entitled The
Return of Nathan Backer' and is
now ready for release by Soyuzkino

The film tells the story of a Jew
who emigrated from Russia in Tsar-
