a drive to curtail expenditures on
non-essedtials. But the most i'm

3. And for those unable to

has yielded to Miss Perkins since

Negro Leader

Is Convicted
LID. Will Appeal Case
of Ramey in
Cincinnati

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 26.-
The International Labor Defense
today took the case of Will Ramey,
Negro unemployed leader, to the
Court Of Appeals.
Ramey, who was declared guilty
of assault and battery" by a lily
white jury, was one of an Unem-
ployment Council delegation of five
who were arrested on Oct. Is, when
they attempted to enter the Tran
Sient Service Bureau to present the
grievances and demands of the I'M
employed workers. Matthews, a
guard at the bureau, had covered
the delegation with his gun while
other guards brutally attacked the
workers with blackjacks and brass
knuckles, and then swore out a war
rant charging the delegation with
assault and battery"
The conviction of Ramey has
aroused great indignation among
broad sections of Negro and white
workers here, since the five ar
rested, only the Negro worker was
convicted in an obvious attempt to
break the solidarity Of Negro and
white workers. Of the white de-
PENDANTS, one was acquitted, and
the three others not even brought
to trial. An intensive mass cam
paign is being conducted for
Ramey's release.

have demanded the evacuation of
all Chinese officials and troops
from Chahar and that all the signs
are present of a new imperialist
drive against China, Pravda, Com

Japanese imperialism is utilizing
every means in order gradually and
in parts to subject to itself the
whole of Inner Mongolia. But APP
parently not desiring to complicate
the position of the japanese ele-
nients within China and its own
position, the Japanese command
has published denial, in which it
pointed out that it is question
not concerning occupation, but con-
corning the demand of clearing"
(by the Chinese) "of territory lying
between the boundary of Jehol and
the Great Wall running through
Chahar." At the same time it is
alleged that this demand emanates
not from Japan but from Man
