principal object wa, to arrest the
speakers and disrupt the protest
rally, arranged by the local Scots

At the last moment, the pastor of
the church, Rev. Groom, realizing
that the lynch rulers were opposed
to any action in defense of the
Scottsboro boys, refused to permit
the meeting to be carried through
when the workers, undeterred by
the police terror, prepared to open
the meeting.

ALL-RUSSIAN

Delegates r epresent
Cross S e ctiOn of
Soviet Peoples
lspeelaI 70 the DaiIy VOICED

MOSCOW, Jan. II (By Wireless).
The delegates to the Al-Russian
Congress of Soviets represent a
broad but accurate cross-section of
the population of this largest of the
seven constituent republics of the
Soviet Union.
The representatives come from
each town and from each autono-
nous region of the republic. Thus,
sitting in the press gallery Of the
great hall of the Kremlin, one sees
Tartars, Chuvash workers, Mordvi,
and all manner of Oriental peoples,
as well as pure Russian workers and
collective farmers.
All are gathered as equal legisla-
tors and administrators of the
country, representing the workers,
the farmers, the toiling masses
without prejudice against any race.
A single will animates all varied
types Of professions and races pres
ent. The Congress is as severely
practical as the huge plain white
hall in which all are seated.
Those who deliver their reports
expose all weaknesses in the de-
tails of carrying out their plans
The discussion reveals further de-
tails and remedies applicable to
each corner of the country are pro-
posed. The care of the population,
rejecting the emphasis of the Sec
ond Five Year Plan on the welfare
Of the people and the raising OF
the standards of living, is shown
by the prominent place given to
problems of the municipalities and
of public health.
