LID SENDING APPEALS

SEATTLE, Aug. 29-Launching
a broad drive in defense of the
workers charged with criminal
syndicalism in Portland and KEEL
so the international Labor De-
Tense is sending out appeals to
all working class organizations
for their aid in smashing these
frame-ups.
The international Labor De-
Tense points out that the very
existence of militant working
class organizations is threatened
by these cases and that only
working class unity can defend
them.
Printed resolutions addressed
to Lotus Langley, District Attor-
ney, Portland, Oregon, are being
mailed out to all organizations
with the request that these be
adopted and sent in promptly to
the bosses officials in Portland.
The LID states that this is only
one step and urges that all Or
CARNATIONS support the propos-
ais which will be more fully out
lined as soon as the Portland in
dictments are returned.

AberdeenlY Youths Start
Fascist Organization
By Lydia Laukkanen Somerville
Communist Candidate for
County Commissioner

ABERDEEN, Wash, Aug. 80
A group of young Grays harbor
men, claiming to be interested in
good government" have formed
IA fascist organization here.
So far it has not been determin-
ed whether the organization will
become affiliated with the New
Order of Cincinnatus, but the
aims are the same.
The purpose they claim is to
oppose any individual or group
advancing, teaching or seeking
to establish un-American princip-
les, to admit to membership only
those known to be in complete
accord with the principles and
purposes of the organization.
So the young men are following
the footsteps and aims of the
Mayor of Aberdeen, whose plans
are to crush the activity OF the
Communist party locally.
The organization also pledges
to oppose any force which would
destroy the rights and privileges
guaranteed by the Constitution
of the United States.
The two purposes are a con-
tradiction, since it is the Com
munist Party which is fighting
for the right of the workers to
practice their so-called "eOnsti-
tutional rights"
