Mounted Police Ride
Into Crowd at Picnic
During Sports Exhibit

NEW YORK. LaGuardia's
mounted police rode into crowd
of 300 men, women and children
watching an exhibition of amateur
wrestling and boxing given Sy the
Spartacus Greek Workers Athletic
Club at the picnic Of an Interna-
tional Workers Order Branch Sun
day at Van Cortlandt Park.
A mounted policeman watched
the exhibition for more than half
an hour, then demanded of the
athletes if they had permit. When
told no permit was necessary as
none of the athletes was a profess
sional, the policeman rode his horse
into the crowd, trampling two chill
dren and several women. When the
workers rallied in self-defense, he
rode away, and later returned with
three more mounted policemen.
The four then rode into the crowd,
inflicting severe injuries on many
workers and their children.
Indignant at the brutal police at
tack, the workers held a protest
meeting on the spot and elected a
delegation of five men and three
women to visit the police station to
demand the removal of the police
from the picnic grounds. Many of
the workers accompanied the dele
cation, which forced the withdrawal
of the police.

In the same vicinity are planted
also hundreds of acres of potatoes
which must be soon dug or the po-
tato crop will be ruined. The pres
ent terror against the strikers in
dicates that the Onion Growers AS

it. They are determined to win the

Onion Pickers' Long Strike Reveals High Militancy

Role of A. F. of L.
The strike originated from a pro-

The low pay and long hours were
also burning grievances. The wave
of strike struggles throughout the
country set an example for them
and they walked out. The A. F.

ISOLATION Of Street, Electric Railway

make gestures of support of the

The strike is continuing with

Workers Bill

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept 5.-The
Cleveland Unemployment Councils
have called upon all members of
the organizations who participated
in the August 10 unemployment
conference here, and all employed
and unemployed workers, to mass
at the City Hall, Monday, Sept. 10
at pm. in support of the unem-
ployed demands.
The August 10 conference elected
a committee Of twenty-five to meet
with Mayor Davis and the City
Council at the first session of the
city body. The demands formulated
at the conference call for:
y A thirty-hour week at union
wages on all relief and P.W.A. jobs.
D Full cash rent for all unem-
ployed tenants; an end to evictions.
81 No discrimination on relief or
on the work projects; Negro, wo-
men, foreign born and young work.
ers, regardless of political or reli-
gious belief to have full rights to
relief.
81 Gas, water and electricity to all
unemployed.
81 Removal of all police from the
relief stations.
81 Endorsement of the Workers
Unemployment Insurance Bill by
the City Council.
The conference committee has
called attention to the City Coun-
ellis evasion of all its responsibility
for the unemployed. On June 10,
under the pressure of workers as
sembled there, the City Council was
forced to pass resolution favoring
the payment of rents, an end to
evictions, and for the cash payment
of relief. Since then it has failed
to take one step to provide funds
for putting this resolution into
effect.
Since that time, two workers
have been murdered by police in
the relief stations. police terror has
increased, evictions have continued,
and the relief payments have re-
manned at the same starvation levels
despite continued rise in the cost
of living.

Dunno Flags
OlsOn's Role
In minneapolis
Singles Out Governor
For Strikebreaking
in Truck Strike
Especial to the Daily worker

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Sept. s.
Speaking to a capacity crowd that
filled even the standing room in
the South Side Auditorium, Bill
Dunno, constantly interrupted by
applause, compared the West Coast
and Minneapolis strikes in connec-
ton with the rising struggles led
by the Communist Party against
hunger, faSciSm and inperialist
war. Observers estimated that go
per cent of the audience %~ere
members Of the organized labor
movement, with a large block from
the Truck Drivers and Helpers
Union STA.
Dunno concentrated his attack
on Strikebreaking Governor Floyd
B. Olson as the main enemy
characterizing the local Trades and
Labor Assembly officialdom as OIL
sons first line of defense, and the
Trotzkyite leadership of the
drivers union as his second line
in the labor movement. He quoted
at length from articles and speech
es published in the official organ
of the union, edited by the Trot-
skyites, to prove his statements.
Both the henchmen of Olson in
the Labor Assembly here and the
Trotzkyites have deliberately tried
to create the impression among
workers that the West Coast
strikers were defeated. They have
tried to picture the West Coast
workers as demoralized and hope
less after the descent of the Stall
mites upon the West Coast labor
movement"
Dunno d isplayed the Daily
Worker with its headlined news of
10000 votes for Gallagher in the
California primaries and asked If
this was proof of the alleged de-
feat. This silenced the Trotzky-
ties.
Dunno paid a glowing tribute to
the initiative, organizational ability,
courage and determination of the
membership of Local STA, and
stated that this was the guarantee
of the defeat of the enemies of
the working class inside the labor
movement and the assurance of
the rise of a new and powerful
labor movement and labor leader
ship in Minnesota.

FLINT, Mich, Sept. 5. This
city's Labor Day celebration Mon
day was reused out of the usual
stupor engendered by large doses Of
official A. F.. of L. speeches when
eight young workers suddenly ap-
peared among the crowd assembled
at the picnic grounds carrying
placards reading: Smash Company
Unions" Negro and White Unite
and Fight for Relief" "All War
Funds to the Unemployed" Free
Tom Mooney" and other working
class slogans.
The A. F. of L. strong arm squad,
operating under fancy name of
"law and order committee" imme-
diately got into action, but the
young workers, who are members of
the Flint Youth League, refused to
be terrorized. They took their time
getting out of Lakeside Park where
the picnic was being held and then
paraded for while on the side
walks.
The boys were arrested by police
called by the A. F. Of L. strong
arm squad. After being kept two
hours in the police station, how
ever, they were released.
About 5000 persons attended the
Labor Day picnic which was ad-
dressed by Frank Morrison, Sec
rotary of the A. F. of L. Morrison
who was introduced by Attorney
G enc ra1 Patrick H. O'Brien,
launched into a paean Of praise of
the strike-breaking new deal.
In the face of mounting unem-
ployment he declared that the N. r.
A. will place back to work the
ten million of our workers who are
now unemployed" After praising
the employers N. r. A, Morrison
made the usual scurrilous attack on
the COMMUNISTS, declaring that the
employers "are establishing a bond
between themselves and the Com
munists in their common objective
of destroying faith and confidence
of workers in the bona flde trade
union movement"

Force Government to
Give Relief-Dig in
for Finish Fight
BY FRANK ROGERS

There may be a difference Oh
opinion on onions as an eatable
vegetable but anyone who knows
about the militant three months OLD
strike of 900 agricultural workers
in the marshlands of Ohio will adj
mire-the onion strike. The mill
fancy and solidarity of these work
erS, their wives, their children, in
the fight against the Onion Grow
ers Association has aroused the
sympathy of the workers through
out Ohio.
For more than three months they
have held their ranks solid against
the organized vigilante terror gangs
of the employers; against Govern
ment trickery and arbitration
schemes; and against the efforts of
the American Federation of Labor
officials to pacify their militant
methods and mass actions to win
their strike.
Not even the forced evictions
from the company-owned houses,
throwing hundreds of families into
the open without shelter. has damp
ened their spirits. Nor has the lur-
ing promise of the Government of
free transportation back to the Ken
lucky hills. their original homeland,
broken their ranks. Instead, they
