Harriman's speech, broadcast over

indication of being an attempt to
neutralize the Darrow- Thompson
monopoly and anti-labor indictment
of the N.RA., which has thrown
such a fright into the Roosevelt
Administration officials from Gen
eral johnson up and down.
There is no desire, and, l am
convinced, not much fear on the
part of business that Democratic
capitalism is to be abandoned and
a new political and economic system
set up in its place. 1t is not fright
ened by the spectre of Socialism, of
Nazism or of Communism" said
Hartman.
All this is the familiar announce
ment that big business wishes to
meet it's workers in its own way and
in It's own back 3 ards-with its own
machine guns. If possible, 1t doesn't
want even a company union.
Ignoring the poverty suffered
throughout the country by hundreds
of thousands of small farmers. Har-
riman declared: There is also a
growing feeling that the real basis
for security Is return to the part

Fascist Heads
In Bulgaria
Fear Revolt
Demonstration Is Led
by Communists; One
Is Killed

SOFIA, May 22.-Fear of mass up
risings against the newly instituted
fascist regime spread among the
ruling clique here when Communists
in one of the suburbs here yesterday
led demonstration against fasctsm
The police had difficult time in
smashing the demonstration.
The workers resisted militantly
One Communist was killed, and
many workers we're arrested and
face torture at the experienced
hands of the butcher zankoff and
his band Of executioners.
Thousands have already been
arrested, and raids are going on in
cessantly in an effort to destroy the
Communist Party. Because of the
long illegal experience, and because
of its mass base among the workers,
the fascist regime is having the
greatest difficulties, and in its wrath
arrests anyone on the slightest sus-
picion.
Action is being taken against the
Macedonian national revolution
aries, and especially their organiza-
ton, the Imro, as the Bulgarian
fascist regime fears a national in
dependence movement that would
endanger their weakly balanced re-
gime.
Unlike the fascist regime in italy
and Germany, the Bulgarian fascist
dictatorship does not have an or
ganized mass base among the mid
die class. The coup was carried out
in the strictest secrecy, with only the
top groups Of the military and the
capitalists and landlords involved.
Professor Zankoff, leader of the
National Socialists, declared today
that his group would support the
fascist regime Of Premier Gueor-
guieff.
A new fascist legislative body of
100 will be organized to replace the
dissolved parliament, which had 274
members. Three-fourths of the
members of this fascist body will
be appointed by the king and his
cabinet.

The I. L. D. announcement of the
hearing was accompanied by an
urgent appeal to the workers, in

lynching and Negro oppression for
immediate contribution of funds to
defray the expenses of the appeal
and for vigorous nationwide pro-
test actions to demand the imme-
date, unconditional and safe release
of the boys.
To Raise Question OF Negro Rights
The appeal will be argued by Os-
mond K. Fraenkel and Samuel Leib-
owitz. The appeal will be based
particularly on the flagrant violation
of the constitutional rights of the
defendants and of the entire Negro
people by the systematic exclusion
of Negroes from Alabama iuries;
the forging of the names of Ne
groes on the Scottsboro jury roll in
an attempt to prove" that Negroes
had been considered for jury service
but found Ineligible; the lynch at
mosphere in which the new trials
like the original farcical Scottsboro
trial, took place; the open hostility
of Judge Callahan to the defense
as shown in his hampering of the
defense, his refusal to allow ad-
journment during Patterson's trial
to permit the filing of an affidavit
by Ruby Bates, star defense witness

According to the report of the

of the union under the pretense Of
