OpprtSsiOn Of the Negro
On the oppression of the Negro,
the Washington state, the call says
'The New Deal in the South
has increased the terror and the
lynching against the Negro peo-
pie. They are exploited not only
as farmers and workers, but as a
nation kept in subsection by a
white ruling class. We are against
this vicious jim-crowiem and race
hatred bred to divide and to keep
down the toiling masses both Ne
gro and white. We declare our
selves for the firmest solidarity
with the Negroes and all other op.

abroad"

On the question of an imminent
