Ann Arbor Workers
Win Victory in Fight
For Right to Assemble

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Oct. 10. -
The workers of this city won an i'm
portant victory last Tuesday in a
free speech fight when they COM
PEELED the police department to
grant a permit for a meeting on the
court house steps.
The Communist Party called an
election rally on the court house
steps, despite the refusal of the
mayor and the board of supervisors
to grant a permit and their threat
to arrest all speakers. About so
workers had gathered when the po-
lice broke up the meeting and ar
rested five speakers. The crowd fol-
lowed them to the police station
and the cops, seeing this, decided
it would be better to release the ar
rested workers.
Everybody promptly went back to
the court house steps and the meet
ing started again, this time with
about 100 people present. Again the
police broke up the meeting, ar
resting the five speakers for the sec
ond time. And again the crowd
marched with them to the police
station. The police, seeing the de-
termination of the crowd, decided
to issue permit for the meeting
and to release the arrested workers.
An enthusiastic meeting was then
held, the crowd by this time having
grown to about 200 who responded
warmly to the presentation of the
Communist program in the election
campaign. 1t was decided to hold
another meeting on the court house
steps Tuesday.

Cincinnati
Wins Election
Rally Right
Candidates To Speak
On Campaign Issues
At Stowe School

CINCINNATI, Oct. 22.-Attempts
to prevent use of Stowe School for
a Communist election rally have
been defeated by vigorous action Of
the Communist Party. the Interna-
tional Labor Defense, and other
working class organizations.
AS a result, a big turnout is ex-
pected for the mass meeting and
rally at Stowe School, Tuesday, Oct.
%, 8 pm, when John Williamson,
District Organizer, will speak.
BY unanimous vote, the Board of
Education attempted to deny use of
the school to the Communist Party,
after assurances were given by the
superintendent of Schools that the
Party'S application would be granted.
This action violated state law which
provides for use Of the schools by
all political parties. The Boards
action was based on the claim that
the Communist Party was not a
regular political party. When in
terviewed by telephone, chase
Davies, Board President, stated that
he did not know the Communist
Party was on the ballot in the COM
ing election.
On the call of the Communist
Party and the International Labor
Defense, however, Cincinnati work.
ers and professionals rallied in pro-
test against the Boards denial of
democratic rights and poured in a
flood of demands by telegraph, tele-
phone, and mail that the Party be
given use Of Stowe School on
Oct. %.
Board members were kept up half
the night answering telephone pro-
tests, and as result, on the day
following, the Boards decision was
reversed, thus demonstrating the eff
fectiveness of mass pressure.

the Daily Worker encouraged the
strikers by cn'i~terscting the vicious
anti-strIAv propaganda of the boss
press through its daily reports Of
the spread and militancy Of the
strike.
The excellent daily editorials
helped to defeat the Red Scare"
by their clear explanations OF the
Communist position on the textile
strike. Those editorials made every
comrsde in the textile strike area
feel that the Central Committee was
giving direct guidance to the strike.
We could not have carried on
during the strike without the help
of the Daily Worker There are
more strikes developing every day.
The Daily Worker can and will play
an important role in every one Of
these struggles. We must do our
part to make 1t possible for the
Daily Worker to appear and reach
the participants in these struggles.
Now, in its enlarged form, the
Daily" will play an even greater
role in the strike struggles.

 Another interesting point in con- nection with the council is that in John s. Neagle 1t boasted the sec- ond state deputy in the history of the Knights of Columbus. MT Nea- gle was appointed to his office by the then supreme knight. the pres ent coroner of Fairfield county, John J. Phelan of Bridgeport.
 The late Attorney E. B. Kelley was the first supreme delegate ever sent from Waterbury to nation al convention.
 Thomas Kane, the first treasurer, held his office for 29 years and only missed one meeting in all that time, this shortly before his death. The only other treasurer the coun- cil had was Attorney Walter Mona gan, who was instrumental in se- curing the transfer of Barcelona's membership to Sheridan council.
 There were four financial secre- taries in the history of the coun- cil, James Madden, James Lyons, John M. Joy and Michael J. Con- Ian, the latter holding the record in this states for continuous service ;n office.

Edward Doherty has written this story and it is appearing in Lib- erty Magazine. Of Father Cough lin's audiences, the biographer says There was an amazing congrega- ton, eager to hear the truth, a con- aggregation of Catholics, Protestans, Jews, Christian Scientists, Moham- medans, Buddhists, Free Thinkers, agnostics-all manner of men" |.
 Doherty also reveals that the means of his getting the story from Father Coughlin was bargain in volving the writer's own soul.
 'I wouldn't take $10,000 for the story I'm going to give you" said Father Coughlin. "but then wouldn't take million for your soul" asked.
 GO back to the church. And work at your religion hereafter.
 Thus was the bargain driven which made it possible for Doherty to write the story of the amazing career of the radio priest. Father Coughlin insisted that the writer record the bargain in his story and there it appears.
