Going downtown in the Green- wich Village section I noticed a breadline at St. Vincent's Hospital extending all around the block. T intended to investigate this breadline and see how the “house of god” treated these poor wretches and this is what I found. The men walked in single file (like prison- ers) into the alley and received on @ paper dish a handful of sour cream cheese, a dry, stale piece of bread and a cup of warm, colored substance for coffee. These workers ate among gar- bage cans full of swill. The smell is enough to get you sick. Yet they got to stand this punishment while the hospital authorities have plenty of good food to eat and a home. —R. H.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, B.W.L, Mar. 24—Within the next 30 days, Marcus Garvey shall haye retired to “private life” after having amassed a huge fortune out of the misery and mis- placed hopes of the Negro masses. Garvey plans to take up his residence in continental Europe. He has sold out nearly all the prop- erty of the Universal Negro Improve- ment Association, including its head- quarters and the Blackman Publish- ing Company, which he had techni- cally “purchased” in his name over the angry protests of his followers. The climax to a long period of squabbling and dissatisfaction came when Garvey was called upon to give @ financial statement of the organ- ization and the properties under his control. The deputation of workers making the demand was damned by Garvey, who unceremoniously walked out of the room, Madame M. L. I. De Mena, Garvey’s chief lieutenant in the United States, is now in Ja~- maica assisting him in disposing of the people’s property without their consent. In addition to the monies being raised by Garvey through the sale of.UNJA properties, the several hun- dred thousands of dollars which he has collected on the fantastic drive for six hundred million dollars, will also go toward swelling the huge pri- vate fortune he has amassed out of the sweat and blood of his followers. Under the pretense of “exerting pressure” on the British slave drivers, Garvey will at first divide his resi- dence between England and France: As soon, however, as his followers quiet down he will remove to the warmer climate of France, there to enjoy himself to the limit. In the meantime, he still has hopes of squeezing a few extra thousands of dollars from his followers and has sent out instructions to the divisions to exact an affiliation tax from each member. This tax is to be sent to | @ commissioner who is to be respon~ | sible to Garvey, In view of the anger and disgust of his followers, however, Garvey has not much hope that this latest of his schemes will bring in a substantial amount. The move is made more in an effort to convince his followers that he has not completely abandoned them, even though he has sold and collected on their properties. While he has made big talk about All Out Sat. te hnswet Attack uf - On Foreign-Born and Negroes (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) workers are being lynched and dis- criminated against. The workers of Boston will answer these attacks by rallying in hundreds on the National Day of Struggle Against Deportations, Saturday March 28, at 8 p. m., at Butler Hall, Masonic Temple, 1095 Tremont St., Boston. Speakers will be: Edith Berkman and Pat Devine, leaders of the recent Lawrence strike and now facing deportation; J. W. Youngblood of the League of Struggle for Negro Rights, and Nathan Kay Organizer of the International Labor Defense. Admission is free. . es 8ST. LOUIS, Mo. March 24.—On March 28, a mass meeting is being arranged to protest the deportation of Yokinen for his courageous stand against white chauvinism. This will be @ protest not only against the in- creased terror against the foreign- born workers but also against the persecution of the unemployed work~ ers fighting for immediate relief and unemployment insurance in St. Louis and throughout the country. The meeting is organized by the Inter- national Labor Defense, the League of Struggle for Negro Rights and the Conference for Protection of the Foreign Born and will be held at the Hibernian Hall, 3619 Finney Avenue, Saturday, 8 p.m. . Deportation and restriction of im- migration is something that is only 55-years old in this country. Prior to 1875, that is 55-years ago, there were no deportations from this coun- try. The immigrants from the coun- tries of the world were received with open arms in the United States, be- cause the ruling class at that time needed them to develop the tremen- dous natural resources; to build the foundation of super-structure of the capitalist social order. But in 1875, they began to develop restrictions against immigration, and the deportation of “undesirable im- migrants.” We find that in 1875, and™ever since, the list of “undesirable ele- ments” has gradually increased. And recently, deportation of “undesir- ables” became a mass deportation and some of the spokesmen of Wall Street are anxious to deport every worker immigrant, whe happens to be milit- Jamaica, he has shown no inclination to paying the clerks and other em- Ployes in his office whose accumu- Jated back pay now amounts to over paying all his debts before leaving $5,000. ant enough not to accept starvation quietly, ‘There was @ time when the United States was a political asylum for the oppressed of the world. In 1875, when the first restriction were made upon immigration, there was a special clause that said: no political refugee should be denied entrance to this country, Of course, this is now com- pletely changed. This has been changed especially since those me- morable days of 1917, when the work- ers and peasants seized power in Russia. Since then the doors have been completely closed to the political re- fugee, more than that, capitalism has @ side door out of which it seeks to send workers back to fascist countries, that are demanding them. For in-' stance, Serio, an Italian worker, held for deportation to fascist Italy on de- mand of Mussolini’s representative in this country. At the same time, we are witnes- sing that foreign born supporters of Czarism, Kaiserism and of reaction of every brand—these are received here with open arms. Did anybody see an ex-prince, ex-duke or any ex- general of former Russia threatened with deportation to Russia? No! No one ever heard of such a thing. It should be clear to every worker that American imperialism welcomes white guards, no matter from what coun- try they come. They receive with open arms every enemy of the work- ing class. Therefore, it should also be clear to every worker that deportation, de- nial of asylum for political refugees, is not a weapon against foreign born, because they happen to be born in foreign countries. No, deportation and denial of asylum for political refugees is @ weapon against the working class as a whole and especially against its most militant part, against its class struggle elements. « WORKERS ASKED | TO JOIN THE WIR ‘The local office of the Workers In- ternational Relief, in order to organ- ize a Downtown Branch of the WIR, has issued thousands of leaflets to the workers of the, downtown ter- vitory, calling them to a meeting, and free Soviet movie showing on Friday, March 27, at 8 p. m. at the WIR Center, 131 West 28th St. The appeal issued to these workers, | oners. living in poverty and misery, in many CZECH CP. HOLDS ITS VI CONGRESS Report On Situation in Czechoslovakia PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia.—On Mar. 6 the Sixth Congress of the Commu- nist Party of Czechoslovakia was opened in the People’s House in Vy- sotchan. The agenda was as follows: 1. The situation in Czechoslavakta and the tasks of the Party. 2. Trade union questions. 3. Work amongst the landworkers and peasants, 4. Na~ tional questions. 5. Youth questions. About 200 delegates were present at the proceedings. Comrades Guttmann and Bruno Koehler opened the congress in Czechish and German respectively. They both declared that during the last two years the influence of the Party on the masses had grown and that the Party was never so united. At the mention of the worker vic- tims of the bloodbath in Dux the delegates rose to their feet and stood in silence for a minute. Comrades Stalin, Molotov, Voro- shilov, Manuilsk, Piatniteki, Thael- mann, Thorez, Marty, Lenski, Henry- kovski, Harus and Stransky were elected as honorary members of the Presidium. After the election of the| commissions 2 message of greetings | was despatched to Comrade Stalin. | ‘A further message was despatched to the German Communist Party.

Recovers Previous Loss, Puts On 186 Union Promises Aid Pat Devine, acting national secret- ary of the National Textile Workers | Union, tells, in an interview with the Daily Worker, of a very success- ful preliminary conference held in Providence, R. L, March 15, with re- presentatives from the mills of the American Woolen Co. which are en- forcing the wage cut. This wage cut was stopped in the three big mills of the American Woolen trust in Lawrence by the strike of 10,000 lead by the N.T.W.U. Devine, and other leaders of this strike were immediately seized for deportation, although Devine was born in Chicago, and another of those held for exile, Edith Berkman, was born in San Francisco. The conference Sunday was to mobilize for organization to struggle for the return to the wages before the cut in the other mills of the Woolen trust, Consolidate Lawrence. In Lawrence itself, says Devine, the its forces. There is a definite building of de- partmental and mill committees.

Minneapolis ordered its first page for Friday, April 13; Buffalo for April 17, and Butte has not yet made its decision. California, starting March 28, will receive its district page every Saturday.

Silver, Daily Worker representative of Philadelphia, writes: “This was an excellent edition of the Daily on Thursday, March 19, insofar as our district is concerned, and sure will help towards the mobilization of our Party for the building of the Daily Worker. The Thursday order will have to remain at its minimum of 2,000 for a while, as the units have not learned as yet to utilize all the copies they are getting. There is, however, marked improvement in the sale of the Daily on Thursdays in some units. “In the first part of April, the Party is calling a May 1st conference. I am of the opinion that the conference must be utilized for the financing of our May 1 edition of the Daily Worker.

The three executed Indian revolu- tionists were arrested on the charge of setting off a bomb last April, as well as for the murder of Licuten~ ant Saunders, a police official, who had beaten thousands and killed many Indian workers.

When Devine spoke March 14, he read the strikers a statement of the union, which said: “As Acting National Secretary of the National Textile Workers Union I categorically deny the statement of Mr. Kamp appearing in the Evening Sentinel of Wednesday March 11. “Mr. Kamp knows very well that we have in our Union workers who are Republicans, Democrats and Com- munists. He also knows that in our union as in every other union we do not ask our members what poli- tical party they belong to. Neither do we ask their religion. We believe these things are the personal affair of every worker. In making the ac- cusation Mr. Kamp is trying to break the strike. He will fail because the strikers are solid and because of their solidarity will win a victory. “Our Union is behind the strikers. We pledge them our fullest support. The Kamps, Mr. Green of the AF. of L,, McMahon of the U.T.W., Weinstock of the Department of La- bor will find that their strike-break- ing tactics will not prevail this time. “Our Union won great victories for the Textile Workers of Lawrence and Maynard, Mass.

We call upon them to join us. Strik- ers: Stand solid! You are winning. The National Textile Workers Union is behind you.
