PHILA, TOILERS — GREET BURLAK| To Speak at the Anti- Terror Conference PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July es —In spite of the large number| of police who have tried to prevent the members of the International | Labor Defense, Communist Party ; and Young Communist League and | hundreds of Philadelphia workers to meet Anna Burlak, recently re leased from the Atlanta, Ga., jail, at the Broad St. Penna. station, an enthusiastic demonstration was held. The workers met her at the sta- tion and then paraded down to City Hall Plaza, singing the Interna- | tional and carrying placards de- manding the immediate release of | all class war prisoners, the New York Unemployed Delegation, de- nouncing the Flynn sedition law, pleding support to the Indian and Chinese revolutions. At City Hall Plaza additional hundreds of workers were waiting for Anna Burlak in connection with the demonstration of the unem- ployed held under the auspices of the Trade Union Unity League. Anna Burlak, in her speech at City Hall Plaza, pointed out that the revolutionary movement will not be stopped by the burning of its leaders, but, on the contrary, it will grow as the workers come to realize what capitalist justice really means. She quoted the Interna- tional Labor Defense, the shield of the working class, that has de- fended during its five years of ex- istence thousands of workers that have been jailed by the bosses that have participated in the labor She will speak at the Anti-Terror Drive Conference that will be held Sunday, June 29, at 995 Fifth St. at lla. m. Friday, June 27, six workers were arrested on the Philadelphia water- front for having an open-air meet- ing under the auspices of the Ma- rine Workers’ Industrial Union. \Starting to Organize | Radio Co. of Chicago, the makers RADIO WORKERS GET BIG LAYOFFS Under the 7 T.U.ULL. CHICAGO. eg effect of the crisis in the country can be clearly | seen in the shops of the Majestic of the Majestic radio, which they advertise for “its beautiful tone.” But it isn’t so beautiful in the shops. Speed-ups, wage-cuts, layoffs are the order of the day. Until a few weeks ago one plant of the com- pany that used to employ about 2,000 was completely shut down. At the present they employ only about half of the workers in that | plant, and in the main plant about 2,000 out of the 6,000 that used to work there. The other day a group of mili- tants came down to our shop to distribute some leaflets. The dicks arrested three of them and took them into the company office, where they beat one of them up. The other two were girls. In spite of this reign of terror the Communist Party and the Trade Union Unity League are continu- ing the organization work in the Majestic shops. The workers talk about organizing a shop committee in spite of the bosses, for we are beginning to realize that the only way to force the company to rec- ognize the workers and to get de- cent conditions in the shops is to organize, WALL STREET BOSSES FEAR NEW CRASH.

WEIZENBERG MASS FUNERAL | Murdered B By Fascist Union Bureaucrats CHICAGO, Ill, July had the murderous thugs of the American Federation of Labor Painters’ Union done to death Her zel Weizenberg when a gun blazed in the hand of a Tammany thug 1.—Hardly and discharged missilies of death | | into the breast of Gonzalo Gon- | zalez, a Latin-American worker, at a street meeting at 112th St. and Lenox Ave., New York. Rising to a white heat, the mass anger of the workers here at the} bestial murder of Weizenberg, a/ | member of the Trade Union Unity | A French Answer to Italian War Budget Raise) League, at the hands of the fas- cists of the A. F. of L., working hand in glove with Chicago’s under- | world gangsters and under official police protection, will reverberate through the width and breadth of Chicago in a huge mass funeral, to be held, Thursday, July 3, at 12:30 from the Peoples Auditorium, 2457 | West Chicago Ave. The body of the slain worker | now lies in state at Peoples Audi- | torium, where the workers of Chi- | cago will pay their last revolution- | ary tribute to their fallen comrade. | Cold-blooded, with gangster bru- tality, Herzel Weizenberg was mur- | dered on Saturday, June 28, in a savage and cowardly attack upon | him by gangsters. Using knives, black-jacks, brass knuckles and lead pipes, about a jumped the worker and bestially done him to death. Another worker with Weizenberg, Mahanan, was beaten into unconsciousness and la- ter arrested by the police. Weizenberg and Mahanan were distributing leaflets at the election meeting of Local 147 of the Pain- ters’ Union, at 10 West Adams St., in support of the progressive slate | proposed by the Trade Union Unity League group in the local. In conspiracy with the under- world and the A. F. of L. fascist gangsters, the police have not raised a finger to apprehend the murder- ers of Weizenberg. Showing their murderous intent to crush the rising movement of the unemployed, which will culmin- ate in a National Convention called | for July 4 and 5, Martin Durkin, | vice-president of the Chicago Build- ing Trades Council, issued a state- ment in support of the threatened plot of the police to arrest the dele- gates to the National Convention of the Unemployed. Grimly determined, the workers of Chicago are going ahead in wakening the entire working class to the meaning of the murder of Weizenberg, and to hold the historic National Convention of the jobless to take up the fight for bread for the 8,000,000 jobless and starving workers.
