Powers Hapgood, national chairman of the Defense Committee, Stanley Dziengielewski, secretary, spoke in English while Euseppi Oswaldo spoke in Italian. A resolution declaring that those present protest against the verdict of the jury and demand immediate free- dom and complete vindication was unanimously adopted by those in the jaudience. Those present also con- | tributed liberally to a collection which was taken up for the defense. The Defense Committee in a spe- cial meeting held earlier in the day decided to take steps to secure a new jtrial and to enter upon an intensive campaign of agitation thruout the en- tire country as a means of arousing public sentiment in support of the de- mand for the liberation of Bonita. |The committee expects that meetings will be arranged in New York, Chi- cago, Philadelphia, and other large to the towns in this Country-Wide $ jury which found Sam Bonita guilty | The meeting which was arranged | cities thruout the country in addition | Labor and Fraternal News'MILITANT BRONX ie eeieeseanerens HOUSEWIVES AID | FRUIT STRIKERS 5 Women and 2 Clerks | Arrested at Meeting on-} y to get t d credent n School arsal tomorrow collecting The time is p. m al acting ability is re rt and there must be no di quired. |now. . * * . * .
