United Church. Miss Doris Hylton,
daughter of Mev. and Mrs. Burch-
ard Hy1ton Of the state of Wash
ington became the bride of Calvin

who is also of Washington.
Rev. and Mrs. Hylton, his sister,
Mrs. West and Mr.. Sutherlin and
his mother and the bride were the

The administration proposes a maximum
wage of $50 per month, and in all cases
wages lower than those paid by capitalist
employers.

The essence Of the united legal
defense was that the Norris and

one case. The briefs prepared by
Attorneys Walter H. Pollak and Os.

though the latter we're attorneys of

in these briefs was the unconstitu-
tional exclusion Of Negroes from the
Alabama juries.
BY agreement of all four attor-
neys of record, Leibowitz presented
the facts of both cases and Pollak
argued the constitutional law of
both cases. While Leibowitz pre-
sented a very able explanation of
the methods of jury exclusion and
the jury roll forgery, there can be
no question about the fact that
Pollsk. eminent constitutional su-

Willing to Die
In the Chair
For $4,000
Relief Worker Asks for
Bruno's Fate If His Kids
Will Get Money

TRENTON, N. j., Feb. 25.-If it
gets him $4,000 to provide for his
14-year-old son and his 12-year-old
daughter, a Brooklyn war veteran
is willing to die in the electric chair
in place of Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann. condemned for the murder
of the Lindbergh baby.
This simple request was con-
tanned in a letter received today by
Governor Harold G. Hoffman from
Samuel Prystup, c. w. A. worker
of 339 Seventh Avenue, Brooklyn.
His family, Prystup wrote, found
it almost impossible to get along on
his $12-a-week work relief wage.
This is the wage all relief workers
will receive if the Roosevelt S50-a-
month proposal goes through in
the four billion dollar works bill
sponsored by the administration.
Revealing no shock at the degree
of desperation indicated by the let
ter of Prystup, Governor Hoffman
concerned himself solely with the
legality of the eX-serviceman's pro-
posal.
The procedure you mention is
not permissible under the laws of
the State of New Jersey" Governor
Hoffman replied to the writer.

Coal Strikers
Block Scabs

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Feb. 25.-
Three trolley cars taking strike
breakers to Glen Alden Company
mines were stoned today by strikers
when efforts to persuade the scabs
to turn back failed. State troopers
and local police were Immediately
rushed to the scene to protect the
strikebreakers who, it is reported,
were recruited by officials of the
United Mine Workers of America.
Strikers in many locals of the
United Anthracite Miners of Penn
sylvania are incensed at the failure
of last nights district meeting of
local presidents and secretaries to
take measures for strengthening
the strike. Thomas Maloney, dis
trict president, confined the order of
business to finances. The eyes of
the strikers were set on the meeting
as it was expected that the strike
situation would be the major point.
Some rank and file workers at
the meeting, nevertheless made pro-
posals for Tightening strike ranks,
arousing more intense picketing
and making the strike effective
ughout the Wilkes-B Barre
Scranton district.
The meeting did not take up the
defense of the seven strikers who
have been framed on charges of
dynamiting, nor was there any ac-
ton considered for a fight against
the injunction which orders the
union to call off the strike.
Thus far the district officials
have not even issued a statement
on the shameless frame-up of the
seven workers. They we're beaten
mercilessly by the police to force
fake confessions from them, sup
posedly admitting plans to bomb
company property and homes of
scabS. The only witnesses are two
company policemen. Workers in all
locals are aroused by the spineless
attitude of Maloney and other dis
trict officials.

and battery. In this case, as in

Rubber Plant Pickets
Hurt by Clubs and Gas

WILLOUGHBY, Ohio. Feb. 25. -
Tear gas and clubs were brought
into action by police today as strik-
ers of the Ohio Rubber Company
tried to prevent truck from en-
tering the plant. Many of the
pickets, including women, were in
iured and overcome by the gas.
Fifty pickets were arrested. Five
tents which had been occupied by
pickets just outside of the plant
gates were burned.
The strike entered the second
week today. with scabs remaining
inside the plant, where they have
worked, eaten and slept for eight
days. The strikers maintain their
siege with ranks solid, determined
to win recognition of the United
Rubber Workers Union of the A. F.
of L. and abolition of the company
union.
