Norman Thomas, ex- pastor of the exclusive brick Fifth Ave. Presbyterian Church, who also acted as chairman. The mention of the name of the late Samuel Gom- pers, arch-labor traitor, drew ap- plause from the “socialist” reliables massed in frent. In that throbbing voice of his, which has been known to move weak-minded old ladies to tears, Thomas spoke with deep emotion of “our country.” “Today,” he cried out, “the oppressed in every part of the world, in India, in China, in Africa, are looking to America; with its freedom, America the hope, America the etc., etc., etc.” | Thomas was wound up. I ordered an ice cream brick. * * © The second speaker was Ex- Municipal Court Justice Jacob Pan- ken, who for ten years upheld the capitalist laws on the bench, The socialist party is not a party of or- dinary riff-raff. Judges, doctors, lawyers—yes sir, the cream of so- | ciety. If you've never heard Pan- ken speak, you've missed something. You may have heard people make speeches and people read speeches, but did you ever hear anybody sing a speech? Panken, in fact, is one of the most vigorous songbirds this side of the ocean. It is true, he be- came a little hoarse, but nothing could choke those valiant trills, those throbbing arpeggios of liquid sound pouring from the Pankenian larynx, Penken spoke about the socialist “victories.” “Denmark has just clected a socialist government, Ger- many has a socialist government, and, when the elections are over, |America with its power, America| |Day celebration was a mighty dem- jonstration—for a singer of popular | songs, And where was.

The striking cafeteria workers, to- gether with a delegation of textile strikers led the parade of left wing unions and Communists yesterday in celebration of May Day. Then they, went to the New York Coliseum, where a gigantic demonstration was held, and declared their solidarity | with the other left wing forces in the United States, They applauded the announcement of the convention of the left wing industrial unions called by the Trade Union Educa- tional League ,to meet in Cleveland on June 1.

Local 43 Arrives. The climax, so far as lack of at- tention was concerned, came while Norman Thomas was’ proclaiming the socialist party the political par- ty of the workers. Local 43 had ar- rived en masse just then to escort to the convention its delegates and the other expelled members appeal- ing the actions of the General Executive Board. Altho kept out on the street by convention officials and by the po- lice, the songs and slogans of Lo- cal 43 members penetrated through the walls and closed windows of the hall into the convention. Zaritzky had to pound his gavel again and again to get order, but without avail. Only at the end of Thomas’ speech, when the chairman an- nounced that photographs were to be taken and that all those who wished to be in these pictures had to sit down, was order procured. After this every speaker was fol- lowed with the taking of a photo- graph so as to keep respectful at- tention, POLICE EXTORT GRAFT. LOS ANGELES, (By Mail).— William Homan and E.

ADOPTS THESIS Organization Report Is | Given by Darcy | The Fifth National Convention of the Young Workers (Communist) League resumed its activities yes- terday at 11:30 a. m. at the Work- ers Center, 26-28 Union Sq., when} the report on organization work was rendered by Sam Darcy. | Darcy stated that the basic tasks in organization work remained the} proletarianization of the League and! the winning of the Negro youth, as well as the building of shop nuclei. In respect to orientating the League towards factory work, he said, prog- ress could be recorded, but so far as the actual organizational build- ing of units in the factories was concerned, the League was still as backward as in 1926 and 1927. The National and District Execu-| tive Committees, he said, had for the past few years, succeeded in achieving the organization of from fifty to seventy-five shop nuclei in the various parts of the country. Because of the bad methods of work, practically all of these nuclei had been lost. j Learned From Struggles. | The most important lessons that.) the League had learned were those arising from its participation in the | mass struggles in New Bedford and Fall River, in Passaic, the miners strike, etc. Chief among these les- | | sons were that bad recruiting meth- | ods, which resulted in bringing large | |numbers of workers into the League | during the course of the strike, but j who lost them immediately after be- | |eause the organizers were with-) drawn as soon as the strike ended.
