Scottsboro Committee, organized
around Leibowitz, to demand action
on the proposals of the Action
Committee for united front, on
the sole issue of the fight for the
lives and freedom of the Scottsboro
boys. In its proposal for a united
front, the Action Committee pointed
out that ION this single issue there
is room for all sincere and honest
people to stand together, irrespec-
tive of their political or religious
af1liation or sympathy" an
warned of the danger of division.
Several successful Scottsboro con-
ferences were held last week,
notably the Bronx County Confer
ence and the Youth Conference,
sponsored by the Young Liberators,
and held last Sunday at the Bronx
Studio in Harlem. Resolutions de-
handing the release of the Scots
boro boys and dropping of the
charges against Angelo Herndon
were adopted and forwarded to the
governors of Alabama and Geor-
gia, and to President Roosevelt. A
meeting of the Radio Industrial
Unit of the Young Communist
League sent similar resolution tc
the U. S. Supreme Court.
Protest was also made at a meet
ing Monday at the Union Theo-
logical Seminary, which was ad-
dressed by Joseph Brodsky, chief OF
1. l.. d. counsel.
A number of benefits have been
arranged in Harlem to raise funds
for the defense, among them an af-

Bodies on Mountainside
Show Evidence of
Family's Misery

The police mystery surrounding
the death of three children, whose
bodies were discovered last Satur-
day on a mountainside near Carlisle,
Pa. was no nearer solution late
yesterday, according to the reports
of Pennsylvania police.
The three girls, the oldest six
teen and the two others ten and
eight years of age respectively, have
not been identified. The police
continued to profess ignorance Of
the cause of their death. But their
shabby and torn clothing and ply
steal condition show that the dead
children are among the multitude Of
victims of the capitalist crisis, with
its mass unemployment, increasing
misery and denial of adequate re-
lief to the jsbless and their families.
This indication is further
strengthened by the following
facts: % that despite nationwide
publicity. with photographs of the
dead children and detailed descrip-
tons Of their clothing, size, etc, no
one has come forward to claim or
identify the bodies, and (2) the clues,
reported by the police, linking the
three dead children to a couple that
died early Saturday in suicide
pact.
JObiess-Suicfde
The bodies of this couple were
found near Altoona, Pa. The body
of the man was identified yester-
day by Larry Carney, a Philadel-

Mystery Of Three Dead Girls
Another Tragedy Of the Crisis

phia worker, as Horace Hughes, a
worker whom he knew in California.
Carney said that he met Hughes in
Philadelphia the Monday before the
tragedy. Hughes said he was up
against it and asked if I could help
him out" Carney told the police.
Il said was in bad straits myself"
Hughes then told him he intended
to go on to Pittsburgh if he was
unable to find work in Philadelphia.
The police. while daily evolving
all sorts of fantastic theories only
to have to abandon them still born,
have carefully shut their eyes to the
possibility that the three children
were killed by their unemployed
parents, demoralized by the crisis
and their inability to obtain food
for their children and unwilling to
view their suffering.
Are Parents Dead Too?
The parents may have later COM
mitted suicide, as in the case of the
unemployed couple whose bodies
were found near Altoona, if, indeed,
this couple are not the parents of
the dead children. This angle, how
ever, has been ignored by the police
and authorities, although it is we'll
known that such instances have by
no means been rare during the
present crisis.
Cases Of workers mistakenly
taking suicide as the way out" of
their misery instead of joining in
the mass fight for relief and I'M
employment insurance, have been
reported quite frequently even by
the capitalist press as occurring in
this and other capitalist countries.

Hitler was placed in power by Ger

committee and the workers Bill.
A. Towns, one Of the Council dele
gates brought a copy of THE Web
Of the Red Spider" which gives the
names of many revolutionary work
ing class leaders to prove that the

ments Committee was Communist.

to show up at the meeting Sunday.

Sunday that the Congress Call and
the Workers Bill had to be carried
to the rank and file members of the

union, club, church or other organt-
cation that it was possible to meet

By BILL CORUM

you will be surprised to hear
from me so soon again. But
open letter writing, like after
dinner speaking, is a habit
forming vice and once 1t has
the victim in its grip, 1T Is
next to impossible to lead him
past a sheet Of blank paper.
well, what would you like
for your New Year Day Safari
this time. Some more lions or
some tigers? We have both in
this section, Of course. And
some very fine specimens OF
panther, too, in case you and
your boys are interested.
But why not try 10 track
the Tiger down this trip? Just
for the change, if nothing else.
Out around a place called
Princeton in the wilds of New
Jersey, Tiny, we have some OF
the largest and most ferocious
cats that ever whipped their
tails at the mention Of such
raw meat as Harvard and Yale.
Man, are they big and dan
gerous! It Is possible, Of course,
that a stray shot by some
frightened hunter might knock
them off between now and
Thanksgiving Day. But If you
know of anybody who would
like to bet even money on that,
please don't write, Tiny-tele-
graph!
Now 1 know that last season
when they-the Tigers-were
mentioned as prospective Rose
Bowl performers, their agree
ment with Yale relative to
post-season games was brought
forward. According to this
agreement they were not sup
posed to engage in post-season
contests. if you recall.
But this is a different season.
They have one of the finest
looking football squads you
ever ran an appreciative eye
over, Tiny, and all they are get
ting out of it is some long yells
from the cheering section. In
other words, they are piling up
almost as many points on the
scoreboards as they are getting
in dollars at the gate.
Now as pure and sweet and
amateurish as college football
undoubtedly is, you and know
that's an unhappy situation.
My information is that at the
present moment their athletic
department is something like
100000 in the red.

Of the city, try to make it two
straight today over the Heurich

Today's contest will start at 3

Yesterday, the New Deal Toss
ers added insult to injury when
Dick Lanahan not only defeated
the Brewers, S to 0, but held them
hitless.
Lanahan gave conclusive proof
that he was in form by tanning
13. He walked two and hit one
batsman. But despite these oc
casions of wildness he was always
able to retire the side without
being combed for a base hit.
Archie Scrivener opposed Lana
han. A bad start got Archie in
trouble, but following the second
the young left.hander was almost
as invincible as Lanahan. He
granted four hits all told.
