strasse only q few minutes OFF had
been shot In the mouth and killed
by a policeman under the railway
bridge. In the AntonstraSse they had
shot down the war invalid Reitnack
outside a restaurant into which he
had tried to escape. He had bied
to death on the pavement. They had
fired at everyone who tried to bring
help. Efns Zielke, aged fifteen, had
been severely wounded by a shot in
the thigh. Report after report reach
ed the Red Nightingale" Dead,
wounded, beaten down, arrested, men
women, children! Every fresh report
strengthened the determination to
defend the alley and the lives Of It's
irhabdtants at all costs. II had be-

creed they subscribed individually.
The workers had become free tar

The others also greeted the speak

they regarded him as one Of them

here, unknown to ali except the
members Of the street cell who had
heard him speak at the last meet

For a moment they stood opposite
one another in silence. The grey
jacket OF the proletarian with it
crushed red paper carnation, and the
blue, immaculate uniform OF the Of
ficer with its silver epaulettes. One
on one and the other on the other
side of the barricade. They looked at
each other across a black iron pipe,
"Are you the leader?" The sharp
military voice of the major was not
as provocative as usual. At present
he was not standing there as victor.
What do you want7" The major
took step towards the barricade.
stop! Stay where you arel" Thorn
as called out sharply. He knew that
the officer wanted to look ct the
strength Of the barricade. The major
stopped at once. "If you clear the
barricade, I shall give orders for my
men to withdraw for that period
"Only to storm the street after
wards, isn't that so, Mayor" Thomas
replied mockingly. The barricade
will remain until the last policeman
has disappeared from the whole Of
Wedding and until you give Us your
guarantee that the workers can DEM
onstrate without interference
"Bravo!"-The major turned round
Etartled-a woman's voice from Q
window. He again turned to Thomas
and said nervously:
"I guarantee that you can clear
this whole thing away without inter-
ference"
You know our terms, Msjor!" The
door next to the Red Nightingale"
slammed. The major stood alone in
front Of the tarricade.
He felt how each Of his movements
was followed by hundreds Of sharp,
hate-filled eyes. He knew that he
was the vanquished now He had
been treated like a schooiboy. Bra
zenIy and full of scorn this woman
had looked at him from the window
Just now, with no fear that he would
draw his revolver and blow her brains
cut. He returned to the car.
'Start-back to the station!"
At that moment the silence OF the
alley was broken by piercing shouts
and boos. The windows flew open.
Go to hell--you bioodhoundsI
"Cowardly skunksl"
Red 'FRONT.'"
The alley almost burst under the
screaming and scornful laughter of
the men and women. Like salvo OF
bursting shells the shouting and
laughing tore the air and rang out
over the bent heads Of the police.
The furious but powerless roaring
of the motors became softer. They
had gone-withdrawn Vanquished
without a shot, without the throwing
of single stone. One sole miserable
barricade, thrown up in hurry, had
sufficed to fill them with panic. They
had been prepared for resistance.
A few minutes later the alley was
again filled with people who tried to
strengthen the barricade as quickly
as possible. No one doubted that the
police would return in short time
and storm the obstacle By armed
force. But all felt at the same time
that the red alley had just won a
victory over the police.
Slowly the evening shadows fell on

In the ranks of the workers In all

of need Of a united front. We are
