Forces Behind Case. William W. «Weinstone, . district organizer of the Workers (Commu- nist) Party, pointed out the forces behind the Shifrin case, He showed that behind the corrupt fakers and | traitors who were trying to close the prison doors permanently upon Shifrin was the entire capitalist system and its agents. “ The polit- ical and the economic struggle are one,” he said. “When you vote to- vote for powerful unions, you vote for the overthrow of the whole capi- talist system that makes Shifrin cases inevitable.” Weinstone also called for the or- ganization of a strong Workers’ De- fense Corps to defend militant workers in all their struggles. Gold Speaks. Ben Gold, manager of the Joint Board Furriers’ Union, in an elo- quent speech, exposed the class charaeter of the Shifrin case and warned against over-confidence. He called for solid support of the Work- ers (Communist) Party as the par- ty which is fighting to free Shifrin and to free all workers from their exploiters and betrayers. Other speakers were S. Liebow- itz, of the Furriers’ Union; Joseph Brodsky, of counsel for the defense \of Shifrin, and I, Zimmerman, of the International Labor Defense. Sam Liptzin, manager of the Shifrin. Defense Committee, acted as chair- man. The audience responded gen- morrow, you do not vote for Foster ( erously to an appeal for funds.
