from two of The boys, Haywood Patterson and Clar-

Special Role of Daily in Presenting News
of Struggles of Spanish Workers and

the capitalist press is deliberately
trying to belittle the world shaking
events in Spain. The baseball scores,
football scores are plastered all over
the front pages, and in some in
stances, the fighting of millions Of
workers in Spain against fascism
is hidden on the second or other

Only the Daily Worker gives the
news and reports the significance

BY coincidence, the first New

Il is inspired by the heroic armed
struggles of the Spanish workers
and peasants against the fascist
Lerroux government. Great revolu-

throughout the whole capitalist
world. The united front of Socialists

swering the fascist threats of the
Doumergue government by more
determined mobilization of the
workers.
In every capitalist country, the

closer and closer to a criminal i'm

Controversy
WILL NOT HALT AID

The International Labor Defense,
in formal statement to the press.
answering the charges of Samuel
Leibowitz and his announcement of
his designation as defense counsel
for Haywood Patterson and Clarence
Norris, issued the following state
ment:
December 7. 1884, is the date set
for the execution of Haywood Pat
terson and Clarence Norris, two of
the Scottsboro defendants.
ANY controversy which would
detract from worldwide attention
being fixed on that date or impair
the world wide struggle which must
be developed to prevent this legal
lynching in Alabama would be a
weakening of the defense of the
Scottsboro boys and a blow at the
cause OF Negro liberation and would
merit the sharpest condemnation.
in the spirit, then, Of continu-
ing to render now, as we have ever
since the beginning of our connec-
ton with the Scottsboro cases. every
aid and assistance for the purpose
OF saving the lives and winning
the freedom of these innocent VIC
Tins of Southern white ruling class
justice, we have instructed our at
torneys, Joseph r. Brodsky and
Osmond K. Fraenkel, to immedi-
ately make available to Samuel B
Leibowitz, upon his notification that
the defendants have so requested
all papers necessary in preparing
the cases of Haywood Patterson and
Clarence Norris for appeal to the
United States Supreme Court.
I'VE have already retained Mr.
Walter H. Pollak, outstanding con-
stitutional lawyer, the attorney who
had successfully argued the first
appeal of the Scottsboro boys in
the United States Supreme Court
to once more take charge of the
appeals in that court.
Two Fisted Policy

faced with the appeal to the United
States Supreme Court in April
1882, We retained Mr.. Pollak, who
successfully argued that case; there
after when we were faced with the

ONE-FAM|LY HOME
DOMINATES IN us.
r. H. A. Figures Reveal
Housing Shortage-500,-
600 Beyond Repair.

American homes occupied by single
families will be the chief benedciaries
of the modernization program of the
Federal Housing Administration,
judged by the flood of inquiries con-
corning these loans pouring into the
F. H. A. Offices from all parts of the
United States.
While practically every class of
property owner in the country Is
represented in this flood Of CORE
spondence, two groups are said by F.
H. A. officials to be distinctly in the
lead. One Is the man who owns his
own home. The other is the property
owner who has single family homes
for rent.
This data supports the conclusion
that the single family home is still
the American standard.
Further support to this conclusion
IS given by the analysis of the figures
obtained from a large number OF
representative American cities recently
in the Real Property Inventory, made
under the supervision of the Bureau
of Foreign and Domestic Commerce.
On the basis of figures gathered in
AZ cities, single family homes con-
stitute $50 per cent of all structures
used for dwelling purposes, not count
ing hotels, rooming houses and Sum-
mer cottages; 1872 per cent are two
family structures, 11.3 per cent apart
ments and three and four family
structures, 4.6 per cent flats above
stores and similar structures.
Lead in Recent Building.
OF all new construction for dwelling
purposes in the past 10 years, 87.7 per
cent were single family homes, 8.5 per
cent apartment houses and 3.8 per
cent flats over stores and other types
Of construction.
Highest of the percentages, how
ever, is that of persons actually liv-
ing in single family homes including
all types of duplex houses with sep
arate entrances; 800 per cent of the
people live in the single family homes,
SO per cent in apartment houses or
other multiple family houses, and 80
per cent in flats.
Physical inventory of the homes of
America presents less favorable pic
ture, but reveal the great need for
the Better Housing Program.
In the first place. there is an es-
timated "home shortage" in America
Of 100000 houses.
100000 Beyond Repair.
In the second place, of the 22,50o,-
900 estimated to be in the UniEd
States, there are probably 1858, ITO
in need of minor repairs, 5000, 900 in
need Of major repairs and 100000
which are beyond repair and should
be demolished.
A large proportion Of the vacant
houses in this country, according to
available figures, is in need of major
repairs or actually should be torn
down.
Actual inventories made in So cities,
upon which the general estimates are
based, show that of the 1,728,521
dwelling structures in these communi-
ties, 38, 1873 were reported as unfit for
human habitation, 1859 in need
of structural repairs and 769,359 in
need of minor repairs. These three
classes totaled 1,081, 058 structures,
or 62.5 per cent of all surveyed.
Applied to the 13,046,699 urban
dwellings, this percentage shows that
8,I54,186 are unfit for use or in need
of repairs. Applied to the 12,158,277
rural dwellings, it shows that 7,4e8,-
424 are unfit for use or in need Of
repairs.
