PUTSCH PLAN
OF FASCISTS
is REVEALED
Mayor of Saarbruecken
in Plot to Occupy
Town Buildings

SAARBRUECKEN, jan 13 (By
Wireless, = Eight thousand Storm
Troopers and Special Guards, as
well as numerous Gestapo (Hitler's
Secret Police agents are flooding
the Saar territory preparatory to
Selling the Saar by putsch what
ever the outcome of the now clos
ing plebiscite, it was confirmed
through several sources this after
noon.
Under the -,retext Of "a victory
celebration" fascist torchlight
procession will occupy the town hall
and all administrative buildings
here. The Nazi mayor, it was fur
Their revealed, is implicated in the
scheme. Nazi chiefs and Saar in
dustrialists have already exported
100 100000 gold marks from the ter
ritory, in order to avoid the future
exchange into paper marks in the
event the plebiscite votes to return
the Saar to Hitler. All the French
francs now in the Saar will be called
in by the Nazi government in ex-
Change for paper marks. The pro-
ceeds are to be used to pay off the
French mine owners, if the Saar is
transferred to Fascist Germany.
The industrialists, working with the
Nazis, were permitted to make the
transfer now in order to preserve
their huge gold reserves intact be-
fore the exchange takes place.
Extraordinary menacing measures
are being taken to guard the 10000
German Saarlanders who arrived
here yesterday to vote in the plebi
scite. The hope for liberty is agi-
tating in many breasts, all observers
have noticed, and a leap to freedom
across the French border in case the
Nazis win is prevented only by the
armed guards now herding them to
the polls. Everywhere the grip of
fascist brutality and violence, which
in two years of Hitlerism has now
brought the masses of Germany to
organized resistance, is spreading its
pail of terrorism over the Saar. This
factor is hourly strengthening the
influence of the mass united front
against Hitler and is gaining thou
Z sands of votes for the status quo.
A typical example of the manner
in which Saar Nazis have given the
population taste of what will come
in the possible advent of fascism
into this small but thoroughly work
ing class territory is the brutal
treatment accorded to Jewish voters
in the pleblscite. Although Jews
compose less than one-half of one
per cent of the inhabitants and are
an altogether negligible factor in
the total vote, Nazi marauders have
made the rounds of Jewish voters
and threatened them with their
lives unless they turned over their
plebiscite cards, without which no
one may vote.
The united front of Communists
and Socialists, supported by the
German Catholic Peoples Front
and numerous trade unions, has
sent an emergency appeal to the
League of Nations that under such
conditions OF fascist banditry no
honest plebiscte could be held.

sweeping victory in the elections

dates on the rank and file slate were
elected by three TO one majority.
The reactionarv combination Of
the Lovestoneites and the Jewish

itself the progressive" group, was
only able to muster 1926 votes for

ship Of the Lovestoneite, Eli Keller.
Manager of the Union, is certain.
The rank and file victory follows
desperate attempt by the Keller
4 group to confuse the issues facing
the membership Of the union with
eleventh hour lies and rumors. This
group fought hard to maintain its
stranglehold on the organization.
! Charles Zimmerman, Lovestoneite
manager of Local % of the I.L.G.
WI, was brought into the CAM
/ paign to aid the Lovestoneite-F For
ward combination. His main slogan
I was that the Communists received
orders from Moscow to smash the
union" Another trick was to circu-
late a lying story in the New Lead

Newspaper Guild Wins
In Strike for Back Pay
At Jewish Daily Bulletin

The thirteen editorial staff mem
bers of the Jewish Daily Bulletin
who called strike on Thursday to
collect more than $1,000 back pay
were back at work yesterday after
having reached an agreement
earlier in the day with Jacob Lam
dau, publisher of the paper, and
managing director Of the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency.
The agreement binds the pub
Usher to the regular weekly pay
ment of wages at the scale in force
prior to the strike and to the liqui-
dation of the back salaries claims
at the rate of 5000 week. Mr..
Landau also agreed to open formal
negotiations on Feb. 3 for a con-
tract with the Newspaper Guild,
which led the strike, to cover the
Jewish Telegraphic Agency. The
Jewish Daily Bulletin contract in
force prior to the strike will remain
in effect.

DRIVE URGED
FOR NEUMANN
Wide Protest Needed to
III alt Extradition of
German Communist

1.-THE proceedings for extradition
of Heinz Neumann to Nazi Germany
have now begun" Alfred Wagon
knecht, secretary of the National
Committee to Aid the Victims of
German Fascism, said yesterday.
They will last about three weeks,
we have been informed. Thousands
of protest letters from individuals,
thousands of resolutions from or
CARNATIONS, should be mailed to the
Bundesstaatsanwalt at Bern within
the week. Organizations should ca
BILE their protests as we'll.
Committees should visit all Swiss
consulates with demands for the
liberation of Neumann and demand
that their request for his liberation
be cabled to Bern by the consulate,
These committees should revisit
the consulate to ask for the answer
from Bern to their demands.
There IS practically no difference
between the Nazi frame-up against
Neumann and the Reichstag fire
frame-up against Dimitroff and
others, and we must take equally
energetic steps to liberate Neumann.
Besides, we must by no means allow
the setting up of a precedent for ex-
tradition of anti-fascist refugees
back to Germany. If such pre-
cedent is established, the lives of
thousands of fighters against fas-
cism, leaders of German workers
and intellectuals, who now reside in
France, Holland, Slovakia
and other countries, will be endan-
gered."

Urging Mass Protest
Against Plot

More than $40 Bulgarian soldiers
and anti-fascists face death trials
on charges of participating in anti
war activities, following the recent
execution of seven soldiers for TAX
ing part in August 1, 1884, anti-war
actions.
This was revealed Yesterday in a

heroic Reichstag Fire Trial defend
ant to Anna Damon, acting national
secretary Of the International Labor
Defense.
The state prosecutor in Haskoyo,
Bulgaria. is demanding the death
penalty for II of 80 defendants now
on trial there. Seven of the defend
ants, including four soldiers, two
workers, and the worker-deputy
Traikov, were murdered by the Bull
garian fascists while awaiting trial.
The Bulgarian supreme court has
already ratified more than eighty
lie a tn sentences passed against
anti-fascist soldiers and sailors, and
their execution is momentarily ex-
pected.
I'm greatest anxiety I address
myself through you to world public
opinion" Dimitroff cabled to Anna
Ramon, ITO raise storm of pro-
test against raging Bulgarian fas-
cism. Rally your tried forces to
force the Bulgarian government to
release its victims"
Answering this call, the Interna-
tional Labor Defense, through its
national executive committee, has
called on all workers organizations
throughout the country TO renew
and intensity their protest, to the
Bulgarian embassy at Washington
and the consulates wherever these
exist, against the threatened ex-
ecutions.
Organization of delegations to the
consulates, from every organization
opposed to war, and Of denonstra-
lions in New York, Chicago, and
other large cities was urged.

Miss Earheart's Hawaii Flight

OAKLAND, Cal, Jan. 13.-Skill-
fully, and amid great ballyhoo, the
wealthy aviatrix, Amelia Earhart,
brought her plane down here after
taking off alone IS hours and Is
minutes before at Honolulu, Hawaii.
She was greeted by large crowd
which had anxiously scanned the
skies after long silence in which
no word was received from her.
Her average speed was 40 miles
an hour for the entire 2,400 mile
flight. In preparing for the flight
she was given every assistance by
the government an wealthy back
ers who are interested in developing
trans-Pacif1c flights as part of the
