But what are to French troops has become the courageous resistance of African peoples in the Riff of Morocco and in the Atlas region, that no longer can the French imperialist govern- ment conceal it, After Abd-el Krim sold out to vance more than two years ago, ‘rench imperialism thought it had von a final conquest, but every <ourier from across the Mediterra- nean recently brings news of French columns completely wiped out, and of disastrous defeats inflicted on those trying to penetrate into the interior. This is beginning to cause an alarm. No outpost or travelling column is safe without triple sentry lines, and even then at times all are wiped out by Moors. The Reguibat tribe, most unconquerable of all the Ber- bers, fight inch by inch with the French for their homeland in west Morocco. The Gourps are another tribe but follow equal effective tac- ties and all work together.

DURBAN, South Africa, Nov. 18. —Not for the MacDonald “labor” government’s palaver about British “duties to enlighten backward peo- ples” or even to “assure peace and | order,” but for such an exalted pur- pose as collecting taxes from Negro | dock workers, 500 police armed with |machine guns and gas bombs ar- rived here in the dead of night from Pretoria and at 3:30 a, m. threw a cordon around the miserable bar- racks where thousends of dock workers live, and in real imperialist style went through each barracks demanding passports and poll tax | receipts. Hundreds escaped the raider em- issaries of the British “labor” party who were engaged in forcing mis- jerably paid workers to pay the $5 |poll tax, having gotten wind of the raid. They are supposed to have taken considerable we-pons with them. None were found. But the Negro workers were by no means ‘docile, frequent fights took place as the police went through the bar- racks aad groups of workers that |showed fight were broken up only by tear gas bombs bought by taxes previously paid by them, | The police are worried at the tax resistance campaign of native la- | borers, which is charged to “Com- jmunist propaganda,” and _ while boasting that the raid had a good “moral effect,” and anxious at the plan of the Negroes to demonstrate | against the British on December 16, ‘a public holiday.

The meeting, held in Labor Tem- ple, Pittsburgh, was also addressed by Pat Devine, Max Salzman and Pat Toohey. The case of Salva- tore Accorsi, Pennsylvania miner, framed for murder of a state trooper, two years ago, was also discussed. & in Pittsburgh, December 9, in the same court house in which three “Feoal and iron police were white- washed several weeks ago after urdering John Barkoski, a miner, Salzman declared, “The Pennsyl- vania State Police have a slogan, ‘We get our man.’ It should be ‘We get any working man in order to in- timidate the working class in Penn- sylvania’.” The workers present promised to demonstrate and raise mass pro- tests to Accorsi, whose case grew out of a Sacco-Vanzetti demonstra- tion at Cheswicck, August 22, 1927, when 2,000 miners and their fami- lies were brutally attacked by the State Police. In the course of the attack, one of the miners shot in self-defense. Accorsi was not pres- ent at the mass meeting—having been at his home four miles away. GET YOUR COSTUME For the Dec. 6 NEW MASSES.

The chairmanship was di- vided between a social democrat and a Home Defense member. The s0- cial demoeratic leader, Karl Renner, | stated that Austria can only reach a |sound condition by coming to an linner understanding and by inner |disarmament. The Home Defense members declared themselves in full |agreement with Renner’s address. \This meeting signifies a further stage in the development of social- lism fascism: fraternalization of so- \cial fascism and Home Defense fascism. ‘Workers Saved Lives,’ Says Louis M’Laughlin (Continued ;rom Page One) | remaining bail bond has been raised. |“It’s been harder to stay in jail the three weeks since we been convicted than the six months before.

Militant Chinese Are — Arrested In Cuba By U.S. Puppet Machado HAVANA (By Mail)—Keechang, secretary of the Cuban Branch of the All-American Alliance to Sup- port the Chinese Worker-Peasant , ker 28 by the secret police of the American imperialist puppet, the Machado Government. The secret police searched the office of the branch of the Alliance and also the residence of some militant Chinese workers prior to the arrest of Kee- chang. This terrific persecution is a direct result of the close co-oper- ation of the Machado Government, the Nanking Government and the local Kuomintang in Havana, all tools of American imperialism. They made no charges at the rest, but it is plain that the mil fancy of these Chinese workers and their close ce-operation with the revolutionary Cuban workers to fight against both the imperialist ; agents, the Nanking and the Ma- chado Governments, and for the real independence of the Chinese and Cuban masses were the only and real reasons for the arrest. It is also believea that three more militant Chinese workers of the Al- liance in Havana have been arrested secretly. The arrested are held for deportation which means to hand the mover to the reactionary Nan- ling Government to have their heads chopped off. While the International Labor De- | fense is taking up the case, the working class organizations of Cuba, the branches of the Alliance throughout the continent and also workers’ organizations in the United States will launch a wide campaign for the unconditional freedom of their arrested comrades and expose the white terror of the Machado reaction, and the Kuomintang in- formers who are under direction of American imperialism. TRY TO FRAME OHIO STRIKERS Cleveland Truckmen in “Murder” Charge CLEVELAND, 0., Noy. 17.—An} attempt to frame two striking truck drivers of the F, H. Scott Trans- portation Company is being made by the Cleveland bosses and their courts, as a result of the death of Theodore Knill, a scab, aboard a Scott truck which the scab was “guarding” last Wednesday night, near Ferry, Ohio. The two workers held are: Henry Euler, 27, of 6712 Kinsman Ave., and Frank Giovan, of 10119 Detroit Ave. <A third is held as a “mate- rial witness.” At the same time as the arrest of | the two, the Scott Company filed an injunction petition in federal court, naming locals of the truck- men’s and teamsters’ unions as the defendants, and asking that they “be restrained from assaulting or interfering with Scott employes.” Hearing on the injunction has been set for next Thursday. Euler and Giovan deny they had any part in the killing, although lo- cal papers, such as the Cleveland News, ran flaunting headlines say- iny that “two admit part in labor killing.” The strike has been on since Sep- tember. The Scott Co. runs trucks between here and Erie, Pa. Among tha tricks adopted against the strik- ers are alleged bombings which the bosses have blamed on the workers, and assaults. Not only armed police convoys but armed thugs have been used to accompany the scab-run trucks, in order to attempt to provoke the strikers, Knill was’ such a spe- cially hired armed “guard.” The misleaders of the A. F. of L. teamsters’ and truckmen’s locals here have %een thus far unable tu sei. out the strike due to the rank and file militancy. “FREEDOM” IN LATVIA (Wireless By Imprecorr) RIGA, Nov. 17.—The Latvian po- lice have prohibited the well-known | economist Leitzen, from giving a series of lectures on economic con- struction in the Soviet Union.

TUUL BOARD SEES CRISIS AS “KEY” TO CAMPAIGN Maps Plans of Fight All Along the Line (Continued from Page One) ization to retain the fruits of vic- tory and advance. The T. U, U. L. will organize the unemployed, con- cretize their demands and struggle | for full support of the unemployed rt the expense of the employers and state. The T. U. U. L. organization work, since the Cleveland Trade Union Unity Convention held about September 1, came under sharp scrutiny and cccupied a major por- tion of the time of the committee. It was evident from the report of National Organizer Jack Johnston that though much progress was made, not enough was being done. Weaknesses seem to. lie largely in insufficient co-operation and co- ordination of the various units of | the league, together with a ten- dency on the part of the league members in the various localities to | regard the tours of Foster, John- stone, the Labor Jurors and others as primarily educational rather than organization meetings. More individual appeals at the meetings, in preparation of them, and after them, to workers to actu- ally join the T. U. U. L., to pay dues, to support its press, and organize their fellow workers, was indicated by the reports, and will be demanded by the national executive board. The T. U. U. L. is composed of national industrial unions, such as the National Miners Union, the Na- tional Textile Workers Union, the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union, ete., plus national industrial leagues, and local general leagues. There is provision for departments | devoted to women, youth, Negro workers, etc., and there are national industrial committees to lead and | energize the work in various indus- tries. All this machinery works too loosely, and with not sufficient at- | tention to the movement as a whole, | as symbolized in the national center, | the T. U. U. L. itself, the board found. Unify Activities. Steps were taken by organizing youth, women’s, and other commit- | tees to centralize this work. More- lover committees are to attend, di-| rectly representing the T. U. U. L.| national executive board, at all im- portant board meetings, and all con- | ventions of the national industrial | unions. Their purpose is to assist, and guide in the general activities ~) tion of industrial loc: cities, as in the past. The present tour of Frank is largely for the purpose of building indutsrial league organiz Building for Conventions The tour of Harper and Buck now going on, is directed partic larly to the shoe and textile ifdus- tries, and will build up representa- tion to the national conventions in those two industries. The shoe work- ers’ national convention will prob- ably be in February. The tour of Cush is directed into the mining and steel industries. There will scon be a national convention call by the | National Miners Union, and it is in- tended to make this a broad mass, organizational convention, to extend the influence of the union far be- yond its present bounds. There is a functioning steel committee already | established in Pittsburgh, which held a conference recently, and will pro- ceed with further work. Labor Traitors. In its struggle to organize the un- organized, the national board found | the TT. U. U. L. faced, not only | with the bitter opposition of the | bosses and the capitalist state, which already increased all possible ter- | roristic and oppressive measures, re- sorting to arre sedition charges frame-up, murder charges against | workers who defended themselves | against attempts of bosses’ gunmen to slaughter them, as well as an in- | creasing possibility of murder by such gunmen, but also by certain elements posing as part of the labor movement, and betraying it.

Other committees will at- tend conventions coming in the near future, called by the National Miners Union, the Independent Shoe Work- | ers Union of Greater New York, the | Marine Workers League, which will | establish a national industrial union in the marine transport industry, and others. Per Capita Payments. | Much emphasis was laid on the nece*sity for prompt payment of per capita tax to the national center by the various constituent bodies, as the center is engaging in widespread or- ganization and publicity work, which builds the whole league, and all of its parts. It was voted that here- | after, the constituent bodies should be chartered, and held responsible for per capita payments, organiza- tion work, regular reports and dues collections by the nationa] center. As part of the general strengthen- ing of the campaign of organization, it was voted to draw the national unions and industrial leagues more completely into the support and im- provement of the T. U. U. L. of- ficial organ, Labor Unity. The heads of all the national industrial unions and of the departmental committees will be added to the editorial staff of Labor Unity, as associate editors. | Space will be given in their par- ticular fields in Labor Unity, for which they will be responsible. A beginning has already been made in this work by granting a page each to the N. T. W. and M. W. L. This does not mean the liquidation of the union papers, but it means | that the weekly Labor Unity will | and must be regarded by the mem- bers of the various unions and de- partments as their immediate source of news, and must be supported as such. Labor Unity committees are to be established in all the local | units of the unions and leagues, and the policy is to have the units sub- | seribe in a body for every one of their members, and besides to take bundle orders, paid for the units, for | shop distribution, ete. | Org@nizational Tours. _An organizational tour, at the time of the district conventions of the T.
