A letter dated March 16, 1931, was sent to Captain Heizman in- forming him to the same effect. This letter which has not been returned, Captain Heizman pretends not to have received. 3. On Friday, March 20, Captain Heizman, arrangement on March 16, ca. at the Communist Party headquarters and in the pres-! ence of several witnesses confirmed | the egreement for the use of the north plaza of the square on May First from 1:30 p. m. to 6 p. m.

The board will be in session today at 1 p.m. at union headquarters, 131 West 28 St. Sun- day sessions will open at the same place, at 10 am. The board meeting will result in drawing up a program of action. The first session will take under consid- eration a report made to it in full | detail on the strikes and struggles | singe the last meeting, and those still going on and likely to develop. A whole plan of work in old un- ions and organization generally will \be proposed, discussed and adopted. The Industrial Union calls all workers to rally at 131 West 28 St., at 7 o. m., continued . picketing against the shops still out, especially Jerry Dress at 500 Seventh Ave., and Needleman and Bremmer, 263 West 40 Street. Smash Injunction! There was mass picketing yester- day in violation of the Jerry Dress Injunction, and this picketing will continue. Thursday night in Webster Hall, a mass membership meeting of the dress strikers heard the report of | I. Potash, secretary of the union and | after general discussion, adopted it | almost unanimously. The Loveston- | | eites, headed by Zimmerman, finish- | ed disgracing themselves by finally, jin desperation, coming out openly, | as they have long argued indirectly, in favor of liquidating the Industrial Union and all going back to the com- pany union, They found a tremen- dous majority against them.

The landlord tried to scare some of them, threatening to throw them out, but just as soon as they explained to her that they are all organized and they will all stick together, she immediately changed her tone of voice and became very nervous and the result is that the reduction seems to be won. In another house on W. 32nd St., the tenants are confronted with a $10 increase in rent. “Try and put us out if you can, but your chance of renting the rooms is slim, because we will picket the); house.” An open air meeting was heli near the house and most of the tenants of that street gathered and} | Joined the League and this will help to organize the rest of the houses on} that block. The landlord was com-} pelled to come down to two dollars; oe must also do the painting. How- ever, he wants to get some satisfac- | tion and proposes to evict one tenant. The tenants are holding a demon- stration against the eviction on Mon- day in front of the house, and this will be followed up with another mass meeting very soon. Open air meetings to start a cam- paign against the high cost of living,’ and to demand free lunches for the children of the unemployed will be arranged. A resolution calling for united front struggle against deportation of foreign born workers and lynching ot Negro workers was adopted. The meeting raised $170 for the Freiheit.

His subject will be “The Bank- | ruptcy of Garveyism.” Alexander will expose the reformist illusions of the Garvey misleaders, their consistent betrayals of the Negro liberation movement and the collapse of the Garvey movement, including Garvey’s present activities in selling the pro- perties of the organization and ap- propriating the money to his per-| sonal use.
