Converge on City

Toward 9 o'clock the demon
I--'-~ations from the outskirts con-
verged. We were now skirting
the inner city. All streets lead
ing toward the center were
blocked by police. Searchlights
lingering over hundreds of Grim
son flags; sudden -fanfares, and
the & e ming reflections of
torches on steel helmets i'm
parted a strong macaber effect
to the whole.
And suddenly, after a muffied
and manifold repeated command,
the head of the demonstration
swung toward the banned ground
of the inner city.
Immediately the police pitched
lin. The pace of the masses
slowed down. Men in the gray
uniforms Of the Red Front
League pressed forward to as
Isault and break up the police
Ip halanx into small isolated
groups. Then twittering sounds
pierced the night. Flying squads
of the police, emerging from side
streets where they had been
lurking, drove wedges into the
Iflanks Of the demonstration,
yelling:
dissolve! Clear the
Streets
1t was impossible to follow
that order. Tumult ensued.
Rocks flew. Clubs cracke d.
Throngs ran from pursuing
policemen, only to reassemble
and return to the fray as soon
as their pursuers had turned for
sally in another direction.

Slips on Board
I decided to go. With the

Isatchel with food-biscuits, sar-
dimes, corned beef and a bottle
of water, and crossed the river
to the India docks.
The steamer was loaded. The

/ went to see Zcympanski's
sister. She was a handsome
blonde of 25, tall and intelligent.
Her name was Erika. Immedi-
ately she invited me to the first
hot bath l had had in weeks.
The fact that l had brought her
"a message from her brother
made her regard me as a
comrade.
The sound Of the word COM
rade, coming from her lips,
made my blood leap. She told
me l could stay at her apart
ment as long as l liked. Her
warm, yet practical simplicity
aroused my trust and admiration.
l found in her a trait which
is characteristic of many honest
revolutionists: a fundamental
kindness and compassion side
by side with a cruel disregard
for the lives of all who actively
opposed the interests of the revo-
luton. On the walls were a
portrait of Lenin and the picture
of a young mother nursing her
child.

asked me.
Shelves of Books

with books.

Communist Party had called the
unemployed masses to a demon
stration which was to take place
that night. I decided to be
there.
1t was clear from the start
that among the thousands who
assembled in the belt of suburbs
there were many who were de-
termined that the demonstration
should not be peaceful affair.
These were the trained party
They came with short
pieces of lead pipe in their belts
and stones bullying in their
pockets. They did not hide their
intention of coming to grips
with the police.
Torches cast Pickering lights
over the swelling crowds. A
whistle shrilled and the crowds
began to move forward behind
gray-uniformed military detach-
ments of the party. Red flags
were unrolled, and the workers
bands began to play the Inter

/ served the seven days in
the Hamburg city Jail. The Jail
was overcrowded with workers
of all ages caught stealing on
the wharves, in railroad yards
and warehouses, or surprised by
police in the act of plundering
food stores.
Among my fellow prisoners
was a Communist agitator, q
thin young man whose name was
Willy Zcympanski. A fanatic
fire burned in his gray eyes
Seeing my eagerness, he singled
me out for special attention
His explosive enthusiasm was
contagious. The clear sincerity
Of his devotion thrilled me.
