WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. IL
Three thousand employees Of the Z.

Weeks ago the National Labor

decision was diSregarded and nothing
was done to enforce it. The de-

Senator Arthur H. Robinson, Re-

mediately undertake a campaign to
organize all unemployed and part
time workers to demand jobs or
cash relief for all. 1t was decided
to organize all unemployed already

q Civic and Public Workers Union.
The newly elected State Commit
tee, which met Immediately after the

delegates, representing a total Of
30,590 workers in unemployed organ

over for public works and unem-
ployment insurance. 1--WE demand
public works, not war works." the
resolution stated.
Delegates at the convention de-
scribed in stirring terms the miser-
able conditions in the towns from
which they came. In Cook County
only one out of every nine registered

projects; one out Of every five is

Lubbe Dies
ByNasiAne
Under Drug
Execution Secret; Four
Communists Are in
Grave Danger

LEIPZIG, Germany, Jan. 10.
van der Lubbe, Nazi
police agent and seIf-confessed
firer of the Reichstag building,
was suddenly executed at Leipzig
prison this morning at 7:45.
The hurried and unannounced
execution was carried out with the
greatest secrecy, with only Nazi Of
ficials present as witnesses to insure
that no last-minute statement van
der Lubbe might have made, expos
ing Nazi completely in the Reichstag
firing, would reach the outside world.
Although van der Lubbe was Dutch
citizen, the Dutch Ambassador was
not notified of the decision for his
immediate execution. No Dutch Off
Gals were present. A plea by Queen
Wilhelnina of Holland, sent through
the Dutch Minister, for communication
was ignored by the Nazis.
The Leipzig court had ordered his
immediate execution to prevent him
from making any statement on his
Nazi accomplices and employers in
the Reichstag firing.
News of the execution is being CEN
sored, the NaGi press being ordered
to print merely the fact that he had
been beheaded. The execution was
wholly unexpected, as up to last
night Nazi officials had indicated
that the death sentence would be
committed.
Despite the secrecy shrouding the
execution. reports are current that
van der Lubbe was under the influ-
ence of drugs, provided by his Nazi
jailers, as during most Of the Reich
stag trial, throughout which he sat
in state or torpor broken only once

sion in answer to Dimitroff's ruth

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. -
Alexander A. Troyanovsky,
first Soviet Union Ambassador
to the United States. granted
his first mass interview with
Washington Correspondents to-
day-and, in the midst of it, LAUGHED
outright with dip'omatic cheerfulness
at suggestion that there is a SINH
larity between the objects of the
Roosevelt and the Russian industrial
programs.
do you think that the objects are
the same, but the means different"
a reporter asked Troyanovsky.
mo, no." he exclaimed, laughing.
At cannot say that" And he turned
IN his chair and chuckled some more.
Tt was the climax of a series of cues
tions about the Roosevelt govern
ment's and the Russian Soviet's pro-
grams.
do you see any similarity between
what Roosevelt is doing for industry
and what YOU are doing for industry
in Russian" the correspondent began.
1.-THE idea of state influence on in
dustry is common" Troyanovsky re-
piled. "But the forms are quite diff
ferent-quite different We have in
dustry In the hands Of the state, and
here" Troyanovsky smiled and
pauSed-"here the situation is quite
different"
Practically everyone present smiled
too, as the Ambassador sharply,
though good -humoredly, differentiated
between the New Deal-capitalism by
an ever-greater and more open die
tatorship and an intensifying ex-
ploitation Of the working classes
and the five year plans of the Soviet
Union for herculean Socialist con-
struction by government Of workers
and farmers, who own the production
machinery.
Discusses Peace
The exchanges occurred almost at
the end of the long press conference
in which Troyanovsky discussed war
and peace, trade possibilities. debts
and other stock questions. In the
course Of the interrogation, the Am
bassador disclosed that the Soviet
Union would be glad" to sign non
aggression pact with the United
States, and that credit arrangements
for Soviet purchases Of American
goods have no yet been discussed Of
ficially.
Friendliness perneated the atmos-
phere throughout. And frankness-
although at some points the diplomat
sidestepped pointed questions. He sat
in the red brick house which, throtNh
years of non-recognition, was a So
Wet information bureau, and which,
now is the Embassy. In six weeks CT
two months, Troyanovsky said, thd
Embassy will move to the building
which was formerly the Czarist En-
bassy.
The first visa to be issued by the
Soviet Embassy, it developed today,
