Pickets Tried | Today; Jailed Monday (Continued from Page One) When brot to the Jefferson Court they were.bailed out r a hearing tomorrow. Two Furriers On Trial. Sam Gold and Sam Kurland are now ‘on trial before Judge George Donellan in supreme court, Part 7. They are charged with assaulting Zanistomsky on April 4, 5:30 p. m. That the case is an obvious frame- up can be seen by examining the cir- cumstances around it. One of the defendants and Joe Lapresty, another .furrier, were at- tacked by A. Walter and A. Dwyer, right wing gangsters. When they ap- peared in Jefferson Market Court on |July 5 to press charges against them, Zanistomsky, in a dramatic fashion pointed them out as those who at- tacked him the day pre Right Wing Trick. This was a maneuver on the part of the right wing to relieve the pres- sure on Walter and Dwyer. That | they succeeded, is testified by the fact that the grand jury last month dis- missed the cases against Walter and Dwyer, while on the other hand the two furriers are today on trial for felonious assault. The case against the two workers is a week one. The witnesses for the right winger constantly changing their evidence. First they say he was jcut with a knife, Later they change. their story and tell something dif-| ferent, Has Alibi. Kurland proved yesterday that he could not have attacked the winger. The bookkeeper in the firm where he was working testified that she was paying him his wages at the time of the alleged attack. Attorney Siegel is the lawyer for the two fur- riers. Boston Is, Raising Funds. BOSTON, June 28—At a confer- ence of the Joint Defense Committee held here, delegates from 23 labor and fraternal organizations went on rec- ord to support to their utmost the furriers’ strike. They decided to raise $5,000 within four weeks, the first $500 being col- lected at the conference. After listening to a detailed report + by Rose Wortis, of New York, repre- senting the Joint Defense Committee, the assembled delegates passed reso- lutions condemning the strikebreaking role of Matthew Woll and his asso- ciates, the policy of the Jewish Daily Forward, and the mass arrests of the fur strikers.

In Illinois as well as other parts of the country women are employed in| industries in increasing numbers.

Through this long standing fight it has been universally acknowledged by organized labor that the women’s eight hour bill is one of prime im- portance not only from the point of ;view of health conditions for women, by the right wing gangsters was also | passed. An executive committee of 23 mem- bers were selected, each organization having a représentative.

Prior to every election in the state the State Federation of Labor has made endorsements of candidates who should be elected, the so-called labor friends, and candidates who shall be defeated, the labor enemies, The final vote taken on the women’s eight hour bill H B 61 was 74 in favor, 64 against, 8 present but not voting! and 4 absent. The vote was short of the constitutional majority re- quired for passage. How did the so-called labor friends vote?
