ti; DAILY WORKER, NEW YOR kins K, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1928 POLICE IN FAKE CHARGE AGAINST Labor Defense Will Fight Frame-up The case of Nathan Kaplan, fur worker, who is being framed on a charge of felonious assault in con- nection with an_ anti-imperialist | demenstration in Wall Street, July 8, will come up before the grand jury next Wednesday morning. Kaplan was one of 16 workers ar- rested when police attacked the anti-| imperialist demonstration. Hight | Case of Worke » YOUTH MILITANT rs, Framed in Anti-Imperialist R ie + of the workers were given jail terms, while Kaplan was released on $1,500 bail. Later when he appeared be- | fore Magistrate, Simpson in First| \Criminal Court, he was held for the| jgrand jury on new bail of $1,500.) |The New York Section of the In-| ternational Labor Defense, which de-| fended all the workers arrested in| the demonstration, furnished bail for | Kaplan on both occasions. | Brazen Frame-Up. | Witnesses of the police attack on| the Wall Street demonstration de-| clare that Kaplan is being made the| victim of a brazen frame-up. A) policeman brutally attacked the mili-| tant worker and smashed him in the face. The policeman’s fist caught, on Kaplan’s teeth and a finger was cut. Kaplan was charged with hay- ing assaulted the policeman and bit- ten him. Tho witnesses for the policeman, all of them colleagues in} the police department, contradicted | themselves at the trial, while Kap-| lan’s witnesses proved beyond al doubt that the worker was the one! who had been attacked. The Tam-| )many judge, determined to get al | scapegoat, held Kaplan for the grand { | jury. | The New York Section of the In- ternational Labor Defense last night issued an appeal thru its secretary, ; Rose Baron, calling upon all work-| themselves at the trial Kap-| lan. It points dut that strong pres-| sure will probably be brought to! bear, to secure Kaplan’s indictment | and subsequent conviction, and un-| less the frame-up is smashed, this | militant worker will be railroaded to| a long jail term. Immediate funds are needed for his defense, the ap- peal states. Kaplan will be defended by Jac-| ques Buitenkant, representing the I. L. D., when he appears before the | grand jury Wednesday. | Rockefeller, Oil King, Concealed Continental Bonds During Scandal WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 (UP).— New testimony regarding a secret trust agreement under which Robert W.
