DEPORT YOUNG CHINESE REBEL Labor Defense Appeals Case LOS ANGELES, Cal.—Ed- Louie Wing, 22 year old young Communist, was arrested six months ago in a res- taurant in San Pedro and is to be deported to China. The government granted him the right of voluntary departure, and he has been denied that right by the local immigration authorities. Wing was seized without warrant while innocently drinking a cup of coffee in San Pedro, arrested and searched. When his card of mem- bership in the Communist Party was discovered, he was flung into jail, and recommendations for his deportation sent to Washington. Deportation or- Gers were put through, but aetion-on. his behalf by attorneys John Beards- ley and Leo Gallagher, for the In- ternational Labor Defense, secured for Wing the right of voluntary de- parture upon invitation to Russia. Wing has been kept in jail since his arrest six months ago, the only charge against him being that of membership in the Communist Party, which according to a ruling 6f Com- missioner of Immigration Hull, at Washington, does not constitute a deportable offense.

Attack On Worker's Paper. It is because the Daily Worker is, the voice and weapon of the workiny class that this sentence was imposed. | The judge complains that these young workers were defiant. If they said that they did not expect justice from a Tammany judge, they were right, and the sentence proved it. It is well known how these judges buy their jobs. They are in league with the racketeers of the underworld, they wreck banks, stealing the small savings of hundreds of thousands of workers, We demand the immediate release of these two workers. We will back up our demand by mobilizing the workers against this sentence, and by doubling our efforts in spreading the Daily Worker.

In San Antonio and Los Angeles police closed down the halls in which the meetings were to be held. This did not stop the meetings, as the workers in both cities marched to other meeting places and held enthusiastic meet- ings. At all meetings, the workers pledged a more militant fight for unemployment insurance and against the growing terror of the bosses, The following are among the first de- tailed reporst to be received: ee -« SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Jan. 25,-+ The Communist Party in Sen An- tonie defied the police tesror Thurs- day night and held a Lenin Mem- orial meeting.
