The Old Order Changeth'


# ever there was perfect ulustra-
ton Of the adage that "the old order
changeth, giving place to new" 1t Is
to be found In the political meeting
here Saturday night in which A. G.
Townley outlined his gift-bag political
platform and the minions of the
state administration extolled their
Cwn virtues.
Unbiased estimate placed the crowd
at 800 Most Of those present cheer
ed loyalty and Justify and, judged at
first glance, some persons might term
it a success.
In the light Of existing conditions,
however, such an assumption is not
wholly justified. People on the ad-
ministration payroll and their i'm
mediate families total more than 600
and the evidence Of enthusiasm
among these folk is to be taken for
granted. They have to be enthu-
siastic, at least in public.
But when Viewed with the eye Of
memory, the turnout was not TN
pressive. There are plenty OF people
who can remember when Townley
packed them in BY the thousands
everywhere he went. A mere 800
persons was almost beneath the no.
tioe Of the mighty man.
More important than numbers,
however. is the attitude noticeable at
Townley's meetings. In the old days
there was sort Of hero.worshipping
atmosphere. Townley was q king and
his word was law.
Now the attitude Is one of tolerant
curiosity. Most people stay away but
those who come are actuated by q
desire to be amused. They find II
impossible to whip up their emotions
as they used to do; would be con.
temptuous Of themselves If they tried
Past experience has added to thei,

sign, "Hot Dogs and Soft Drinks"
The old man who served them

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 12.-"My
children sleep without a mattress
in cod room. They go to school
without the necessary warm clothes.
I would like to know if your chill
dren are forced to live the same
way?" Thus spoke an unemployed
worker before the City Council of
this city at a demonstration Mon
day night.
More than 700 workers damned
every available bit Of space in the
council chambers and forced the
councilman to listen to their de-
mands. Speaker after speaker
pointed out the starvation conditions
and the necessity to double the re-
lief from 6 to II a week II the
needs due TO the rising prices are
to be met.
Chairman of the Council tried
to stop the speakers but was imme-
diately halted by one worker who
told him: ave have listened to you
fellows long enough, now you will
hear our demands" The jobless
presented the demands for doubling
OF relief to Sl1 week, supplying
of fuel for their homes, necessary
warm clothing and the endorsement
of the Workers Unemployment IN
surance Bill by the City Council.
The buck passing of President
Roosevelt that relief is a local prob
lem was here reversed when the
council told the unemployed that
they are not responsible for relief"
The workers are to seek these meas
ures from the State and Federal
Government he said. Wilson, the
spokesman Of the delegation imme-
diately retorted that the city can
not shirk this responsibility and
demanded action of these demands.
The City Council voted to refer
them to the State Relief Com
mission. A meeting which followed
outside Of the City Council decided
to organize local struggles in the
neighborhoods, to mobilize all forces
to force the city as well as the
state to supply their needs.

Baltimore Meeting
to Get Report on
Tuscaloosa Crimes
S tartling Facts in
Hands of Group of
Investigators

TUSCALOOSA, Ala, Nov. IL. -
Sensational disclosures on the back
ground of the lynching of Dan Pip
pen, Jr., and A. T. Harden here last
August, will be made by the investi-
eating committee Of the National
Committee for the Defense of Political
Prisoners, now in this city, at the
Baltimore Anti-Lynch Conference,
Nov. Is and 10, it was announced by
Alfred E. Hirsch, secretary.
The Ku KluX Khan has been riding
in full regalia almost every night dur
ing the week the delegation has been
in Alabama.
Deputy Sheriffs Murray Pate and
H. w. Holeman and Private Detective
w. I. Huff, whom the International
Labor Defense has charged with
numbering the two Negro youths while
they were in their custody, were in
terviewed by the delegation Saturday.
AT first they refused to say anything
except in the presence of a court
stenographer, and later, when one
was obtained, refused to talk under
any circumstances.
Willie Unison and Dan Pippen,
ST., the latter the father Of one of
the lynched boys, were persuaded to
leave the county for their own safety
Judge Henry B. Foster, whom the I.
L. d. has charged with arranging the
| lynching, told the delegation. The
two had been arrested with Pippen,
Harden, and Elmore Clarke, the last
of whom accidentally escaped lynch
ing, though badly wounded, in the
original rape and murder frame-up.
Reports, which have not yet been
July confirmed, are current that
Unison and Pippen, ST., were quietly
lynched.
Barbara Alexander, white girl on
the delegation from Savannah, Ga.
asked Judge Foster whether in his
| opinion the appointment of local
counsel to the defense of the three
Negro boys, after the LID. counsel
retained by them had been driven
out of town by him and the militia
which he called, was not contributory
to the lynch Indictment.
mo-" said Judge Foster, "the people
have confidence in Alabama lawyers.
There was no possible excuse for
this lynching," Judge Foster said
when the lynching Of Dennis Cross
aged paralytic Negro. in Tuscaloosa
recently, was referred to. Then re-
collecting himself, he added: There
is no excuse for lynching under any
conditions"
William Foster, a county solicitor
and the son of the judge, spent the
whole day with the delegation, ap-
parently to make sure, under the
Guise of friendly guidance, that they
did not speak to anyone who might
give them real information about the
lynching.
In spite of this, valuable evidence
has been gathered by the group, they
reported, which will be assembled foi
the Baltimore Anti-Lynch Confer
ence.

But the rank and file Of the cut
ters are helping the strikers. So
are all other honest workers, even
though the employers and the strike
breaking mediator of the N. r. A..
have raised the red scare. Their in
tention was to split the workers ranks
and driyce away everyone who is
militant and courageous. But the
Communist Party in GloversvilIe calls
upon every worker to support the

Communist Party is the only party
Of the working class that exposed the
true role of the N. r. A., that or
ganized the workers to fight against
the miserable conditions which the
N. r. A. provided for the workers.
That is why the Communist Party
is attacked.

conditions and abolish entirely this

the Roosevelt administration it OPP

construction Days; that its howl of
rape" tries to cover the worst OPP
preston of Negro toilers in the his
tory of this country; that its imme-
date goal is the prevention of a
juncture of the forces of the black
and white masses of toilers in indus
try and agriculture; that it picks as
its victims not only Negroes, but their
white defenders. 1t aims to crush
the liberation struggle of the Negro
masses, to burn the remaining frag-
ments in lynch gang fires.
THE Daily Worker Is the main in
j stru1nent for building the mass
united front against lynch and muir

Is this an issue on which the Off
cial organ of the Communist Party
can appeal for mass financial sup
port? 1t is. In this issue and the
decisive struggles arising from it are
bound up the fate of the whole peo-
pie in the United States, and in its
womb, soon to be delivered, is vic
tory or defeat for the white working
classl
