A few days later, Ed Marshall, anti-militarist director of the League, was arrested and badly beaten up, and from latest reports is still being held in jail. Frank Spector, sub-district organ- izer of the Workers (Communist) Party, and other members of the Party were also arrested. The In- ternational Labor Defense is han- dling all these cases. Arrangements are being made for a big protest de- monstration against these arrests. The District Executive Committee of the Young Workers (Communist) League, at San Francisco, has issued the following statement in connec- tion with the arrests: Ford - Chevrolet Brings War on Workers By PHIL RAYMOND. | The Chevrolet Motor Company has maintained the undisputed lead | in the cheap car field during the | present year.

The workers here are intensifying |their campaign activities. A distri-| bution of 100,000 Communist leaf- lets will be held soon.. All sections of the city will be covered.

He showed) |that the profession man is used for |the interests of furthering the op- pressive rule of the capitalist class |in relatively the same way that the | worker is exploited and used in the |factory. The difference lies chiefly in that one is paid more and can |wear a white collar at work and |that he is supposed to know a little more than to blindly accept the existing order. In speaking of the Party he gave a resume of its platform and showed | that because it is the platform of the class struggle and because it engages in these struggles hand in hand with the workers and because it understands their needs, that the Workers (Communist) Party is the only party which truly represents the working class of this country. Before the meeting ended Earley answered a number of questions which workers, students and even a college professor present asked him. A number of copies of the Party platform and of the acceptance speeches of the Party presidential candidates were sold. —DAVID GORDON.
