the tub, and stand in it without TAX

ing places to grip firmly when getting
in and out have greater danger posi-
bilities than those tubs where there is
a curved flange or rim. Grab rails are
the next best things but these are on
one side, in the wall, and are less con-
venient and safety-insuring. A rubber
bath mat in the bottom Of the tub, or
heavy textile bath mat or even
towel, will afford a safer stepping

Gates for Stairways.
Stairways that yawn In unsupported
places along halls are temptations to
accidents, especially where there are
cid folk or little children. When such
an open stair entrance comes between
a guest room and the bathroom, and
the guest Is not warned, serious falls
have resulted To guard well such
stairway is really very easy matter
today, for there are swing gates made
especially for them, or If preferred,
there are gates which collapse instead
Of swing.
Very highly polished floors can be
so slippery that walking on them is
somewhat akin to walking on ice.
When having floors finished and when
keeping them in good condition, it is
not necessary to have them of CLASSY
polish. Scatter rugs on polished floors
should have beneath them bases which
do not raise the rugs but very little
yet which are so made that they cling
to the floor. Rubber has this adhesive
element, and so do many textiles made
to go under the rugs. Fortunately
these bases prolong the durability of

Thugs Slug
Furniture
Union Men

BOSTON, Mass, July 26-A group
of gangsters strobe into the office
and day room of the Furniture
Workers Industrial Union Monday
night armed with brass knuckles and
police clubs, and attacked four
workers, knocking two unconscious
and splitting the heads of two 9TH
ers.
When the cries of the workers
reached a trade board meeting in
session in another room the thugs
fled, leaving knuckles and bludgeons
behind.
The attack is part of planned
assault on the union by the fur
niture bosses, an attempt to head
off the coming furniture strike. AS
the news spread through the shops
the workers pledged to build up a
strong defense against all attacks
against the union.
Local capitalist newspapers carried
false statements purposting to have
peen made by workers witnessing
the attack, creating the impression
that the affair was the result of a
war between factions of furniture
workers.

Muenzenberg pointed out that
the events of the last few months
have completely corroborated the
analysis and predictions made by
the Communist Party of Germany
and the Communist international at
the time Hitler came to power. He
said it was his firm conviction that
monarchist restoration or the re-
vival of the Weimar Republic was
out Of the question in Germany to-
day. "Only a workers and peas
ants government, supported by
large groups of the middle class
could and would succeed the Nazi
regime" he said.

Fellow workers:
"Only a few days are left for tn,

heroic leaders, Angelo Herndon.
Friends, to save him from living
death on the Georgia chain gang
which is one Of the South's most
horrible ways of destroying the

groes, when they try to get bread
from the relief bureaus for their
families, is the job Of everybody.

II urge you fellow workers, as a
Southern worker who knows what it
means to go to the chain gang. who
has seen them right in her home

don, and bail him out so that he will
be able to get medical attention

TWO or three weeks ago the New
New York Committee on the
Use OF Leisure Time-a committee
appointed by the New York City
branch Of the N. r. A-delivered
itself of an illuminating document
on the uses of facilities for sport
in New York City.
These uses are abysmally made
quate. Indoor and outdoor sports
are suffering horribly. Baseball,
tennis and soccer are among the
chief victims.
There is only one baseball dia-
nond for every $4,000 people
when there should be at least one
for every 5000.
Hundreds of applicants, the COM
mittee reported, are being turned
away from participation in these
sports.
1t is all something which the
Labor Sports Union has reported
on numberless occasions.
IL is all something which a letter
from Jerry Arnold, one of our
sports editors emeriti, calls to mind
again. Comrade Arnolds state
ment is on tennis. He blasphemes

Swiss borders fronting Austria.
A report from the province of
Corinthia declared that Jugoslavian
soldiers had fired across the Aus
trian border, and that Austrian
troops had concentrated there as a
result.
In France, Premier Doumergue
issued declaration stating that
France would take safeguards" To-
the Independence OF Austria" At
the same time, French troops were
being modified on a war basis.
Martial law was declared in Aus
tria by Kurt Schushnigg, provisional
chancellor, and more than 100000
armed men OF the Heimwher, police,
and the army have been modified.
All of Europe is seething with a
quickening of war mobilizations, and
the imperialist masters are ready at
any moment to plunge the world
into a new imperialist slaughter.
The Seizure of Austria, long
planned by the FaScists in Ger
many, is part of the Nazis' war
plans, the next step Of which was
an attack on the Soviet Union.
Apparently thwarted in this at
tempt by the bitter conflict between
German and Italian fascism over
which shall Sieze and control Aus
tria, the Nazis will now undoubtedly
attempt to utilize the war mobiliza-
tons of the imperialiSt bandits for
an attack against the Soviet Union.
The close link-up between the
Nszis in Austria and the Hitler
forces is shown by the action of the
German minister to Vienna, who
handled the negotiations between
the Nazis in the Chancellory and
the Heimwher forces. The ambas-
sador was recalled, and the Berlin
press is trying to hush up his con-
nection with the putschists and Nazi
armed fighting throughout Austria.

governments throughout Europe

are even more serious than those
which preceded the last imperial

next step regarding Austria. One
dispatch says that Hitler flew to
Munich in order to stop the Nazi
forces which he had previously
massed there for march on Aus

Munich merely to observe the situa-
ton at close range.
The mad, desperate struggles of
the fascist relationships in Ger
many, Italy and Austria, beset with
catastrophe crises, fearing the
growing upsurge of the proletariat,
are plunging into new imperialist

peace, the armies of all European
capitalist countries are on a war
footing, and in many instances, as
in Germany, Austria, Italy, Czecho-

moving into position for battle.
The Hitler regime in Germany
feeling its approaching doom at
the hands of the enraged German
people, led by the Communist Party
of Germany, is ready to fling all of
Europe into a bloody struggle in a
