Gastonia Worker Held Up by Cop in New York After April 1 Banquet’ “Holdups are getting very popular in New York at the present time,” said K. 0. Byers, member of Na- tional Textile Workers Industrial Union. “Tuesday night I attended the Gastonia Strike Anniversary banquet at Manhattan Lyceum. I went home with several comrades who stopped at a cafeteria while I! went to the subway to wait for them. One of Whalen’s cops came up and punched me in the ribs and forced my arms behind me.” He said “Come on, Kid, let’s take a walk.” He took me away from the sub- way to a dark corner and told me to “stick ‘em up.” He asked, “What have you got on you, Kid,” and searched me. Finding a note book jhe began to look through it and said: “Have you ever been arrested?” I said, “Yes.” Then he asked, “Are you a Com- munist?” “Yes,” I said again. When he asked me if I had a job I told him that I had one, or- ganizing the workers. “Then suddenly the comrades came |and asked what was the matter. I | told them I supposed I was under ‘arrest. But the cop said, ‘Alright ‘get on up the street.’ ” “Vida Obrera” Ball: To Be International Affair, April 5th The affair that is arranged for Saturday evening, April 5, at 8:30 p. m., at the Harlem Casino, 116th St. and Lenor Ave., as a first step towards helping our brother paper, “Vida Obrera”’ to become a weekly, promises to be a real demonstration of Intertiational Workers Solidarity.

Oservatore Romano is conspicu- | ously silent on the fate of Giordano | Bruno, who was burned at the stake je eeaeey, 17, 1600. It is silent about Galileo, who in his 70th year was threatened with torture by the inquisition and im- prisoned, and thus forced to recant his scientific teachings. But the request of the scientists in the Soviet Union, who in their leiter of March 26 demanded the pope to give the works of these tor- | tured and executed scientists to the world, remains unanswered. | | Worker’ wy 10,000 NEW SUBS A0TRAGTORS 10 Good Acting Helps Redeem G0 TO SOVIETS.
