A. A.C. P. leaders yesterday after- noon attempted to divert, the Negro masses of Harlem from the mass right to save the nine Scottsboro boys into support of a petition for the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynch- ing Bill. The trick was tried at a mass meéting held under the aus- pices of the Women Stop Lynching League, an adjunct of the N. A. A. C. P. It did not succeed. Working-class “leaders, backed by the workers present, seized the floor and exposed the attempts of the N, A. A. C. P. leaders to betray the mass defense of the boys. Harold Williams, Mary Adams and Sadie Van Veen pointed out that the mere passage of a bill would not stop the > bosses’ lynch terror against the Ne- gro magses, and certainly such a bill would have no effect on the Scotts- boro and scores of similar cases where Negro workers are being egally lynched by the bosses’ state the cloak of legality. demand was then made that the | isce be given to Mrs. Ada Wright, mother of two of the Scottsboro boys. Mrs. Wright then appealed to the audience to support the International Labor Defense and the League of Struggle for Negro Rights and the mass fight to save her sons and the other seven boys. Alderman Moore, who some months ago told a delega- tion of workers that since no one would enter his office to lynch him he had- no- concern in the fight against lynching, jumped up and shouted: -“Madam, that cannot be ‘ done. I know that there is a bet- ter organization to defend your boys. ‘That organization is the N. A. A. C. P.” At this several workers booed loudly. Sadie Van Veen then made @ mo- tion to send a telegram of protest to the Governor of Alabama, A number of workers seconded it and Moore was forced to sit down. Van Veen alo called upon the meeting to send a telegram of protest to the Governor of Georgia against the Jegal lynching of John Downey. & framed-up Negro worker sentenced to die today. Before the working-class leaders took the floor, the reformist speak- ers had completely ignored the *eages case. Rev, Lawson, one the speakers, whined that “if the! Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is not passed Communism will sweep the South, and that organization will overthrow the government.” The workers pres- ent did not share his concern for the dim-Crow government of the boss lynchers.

At camp park another mass meet- ing was held with hundreds of work- | ers staying with the marchers pre- paréd to defend them. At 11 in the morning, two trucks were offered to the marchers to replace their trucks which broke down. A branch of the Unemployed Council was formed in Lincoln.

There) FRIDAY CONTRIBUTIONS LESS | THAN HALF OF THURSDAY'S! | Friday's receipts took a big tumble and dropped from more than $1,900 jon Thursday to $823.83—less than half. It was a dangerous drop, coming lin the midst of a decided spurt. It must be remedied at once! At least | $1,200 a day is needed to keep the Daily Worker gotng. District 2 (New York) fell off badly to $434.07. Though District 2 has more than fulfilled its quota in the drive, because of the poor response of | most of the other districts, the comrades of the New York District must continue their efforts unabated. “Double the quota by July 1” must be the slogan! District 7 (Detroit) fell off badly—only $16.20. This in contrast to more than $400 the day before. District 8 (Chicago) also flopped to a mere $43, while District 6 (Cleveland) was not heard from at all! When three of the largest districts, with combined totals of $9.950, contribute only $59.20 in a day, something is radically wrong. It looks like a bad case of that dangerous disease: FALSE CONFIDENCE. Some of the other districts are showing little or no action. Only $1.50 from District 5 (Pittsburgh). The great mine struggle in the Pittsburgh District is all the more reason for intensifying efforts to save the Daily. Only 50 cents from District 10 (Kansas City), while 9 (Minnesota), 12 (Seattle) and 13 (California), which are far behind, should be sending in more.

Y.—Factory employ- ment in New York State dropped | nearly 2 per cent from April to May, the report of the State Department of Labor just issueq shows. This is a heavy drop, meaning thousands lost their jobs in one month. Besides, the drop in payrolls which amounted to over 3 per cent, shows heavy wage cutting. “Practically every industrial divi- rsion on the Department of Labor's list shared to some extent in these losses, which lowered the index of employment to 75.7, only slightly | above the record low set in January) of this year,” said the news release of the Department of Labor. The information is based on re- ports from 1,700 manufacturing con- | cerns located in all sections of the | state. The decrease in employment | in May, 1930, was 1.8 per cent, and drop in payrolls was 2.9. This year’s drop is greater showing that the un- } employeq army is growing at a faster | pace, More than twice as many workers were laid off in New York City as in the remainder of the State, due to the larger number of clothing and leather goods firms in the city and the smaller number of brick and tex- tile mills.

I said, “Son, you look tired.” He grinned, looking grimly at me and said, “I am played out. We are working eleven and a half hours night shift in 120 degrees of heat.
