Hacking his brother to death with

tackled his brother, then stabbed

in the door of the store, hurting
knives and cleavers at them.
Police were called, and as they
surrounded the place Click went
to the second floor, slashed his
own throat and wrist and leaped

against the Ford workers, the IN
employed Council is calling demon
stration for Thursday in Cliffside, in
solidarity with the strikers
The municipal unemployment relief
committee in Cliffside tried to recruit
scabs. Unemployed workers refused
to accept the jobs. however.
A huge picket line was formed at
the plant this morning despite advice
of A F. of l.. leaders to keep the
number down to 200.
At the meeting of over 1000 work
ers yesterday, at the Recreation Cen
ter in Cliffside, the question was
raised of electing broad strike COM
mittee. 1t is maintained that some
foremen not interested in the welfare
of the workers are members of the
committee.
With the advice tand cooperation OF
the Auto Workers Union, strike COM
mittees are being elected in every de-
partment. These will later form a
general strike committee representing
all workers.
A feeling is current among the men
to send large delegation of workers
to Detroit for organization among the
Ford workers there.

BY ROBERT HAMILTON

Will
The first three articles OF this
series showed the political back
ground of the Reichstag fire and why
the Nazis had to either burn the
Reichstag, fake an attempt on
Hitler's life, or stage some equally
spectacular frame-up to get rid of
their partners in the Cabinet, the
Nationalist, and to suppress all
workers organizations.
In this, the concluding article Of the
series on the Reichstag fire, we shall
discuss the international aspects of
the fire and the trial now going on
in Leipzig and endeavor to arrive at
some conclusions regarding their po-
litical significance.
In the first place. there is little
doubt that without the pogrom hys-
terra engendered by the keichstag
fire, the Nazis would today not pos
sess such unlimited power in Ger
many today as they do. The burning
of the Reichstag was dastardly, but
none the less cunningly-conceived
provocation, under the cover of which
ar unprecedentedty brutal and muir
derous reign Of terror has been set up
in Germany.
On the other hand, the burning of
the Reichstag and the ensuing Fas-
ctst terror regime has gained for the
