DARCY CY FINISHES “: TESTIMONY AFTER 9 DAYS ON STAND | | Refutes ~ Governor's | Attack on Demands | of Hunger March | (Telegram to Daily Worker) LOS ANGELES, Calif., March 15.— Sam Darcy, the first defense witness in the trial of the 45 in Long Beach, completed his ninth and last day on the witness stand today when in a speech lasting a half hour he an~ | Swered Governor Rolph’s lettet re- | Jecting the unemployment relief de- mands made by the Hunger Marchers in San Francisco on Jan. 11. Rolph’s letter, Darcy told the court, said that the 60,000 workers of Cali- fornia who had elected the Hunger Marchers would “have to work in order to get support.” Hundreds of thousands of Cali- fornia are unemployed and suffering hunger, Darcy pointed out, and yet Rolph’s letter said it would be im- possible to grant relief since a special session of the legislature is required, and the calling of it would be a | disaster.” | Darcy pointed out to the court that a large portion of the funds collected by the Community Chest with the pretense of helping the unemployed were diverted to the use of such or- ganizations like the YMCA. The legislature had in the past set aside its regular work and in one session passed the anti-labor Criminal Syn- |dicalism law, Darcy declared. It | would be a “disaster” to convene the legislature if it were a working-class | legislature, he said. The prosecuting attorney made a feeble attempt to answer but was effectively silenced by facts and figures. Before he left the stand Darcy was asked by the prosecutor whether he would support the Red Flag or the Stars and Stripes in case of conflict between the Soviet Union and the | United States. Darcy answered that he would do all he could to get the American workers to put a stop to an | the injunction the consumers decided from advertising in the public press or in any other manner suggesting to any person or persons the boycotting of teh said bakeries.” It prohibits practically everything except the workers’ right to think about the bread strike. If the bakery bosses and the courts believe that the strike is crushed by this iron-handed move, they are mistaken. Already the International Labor Defense has called a mass meeting, which will be held™tonight at 8 pm. at Ocean Parkway Hall, 3034 Ocean Parkway, to initiate a campaign against the injunction. Sadie Van Veen will speak at the meeting. A wide conference, taking in unions, workers’ organizations and sympathetic organizations, has been called for a date in the near future. The entire labor movement in New York will join in a mass campaign against this and all injunctions. The bakeries for whom the courts issued the injunctions are Jacob Tannebaum, Fourth and Brighton Beach Ave.; Sea Lane, 615; Wil-Gold, 799; Ocean View Bakery, 253; David Sherman, 403; Atlas, 314; David Lerman, 1315; all on Brighton Beach Ave., and Ie Lite Bakery at Ocean Parkway and Ripple St. All these bakers are the ones who are responsible for thé injunction is- sued against the consumers. Irre- gardless of how much the consumers’ income has been cut, how many are unemployed, héw many cannot afford to buy bread at the present high Price, the court supported the baker- ies in their profiteering desires. At a mass meeting held by the consumers prior to the issuance of that no one should buy in the baker- ies just mentioned until the prices are lowered, even if the pickets are removed. The meeting also decided on the policy of all consumers of Brighton Beach solidly sticking to- gether and during the strike to buy bread in grocery stores who do not sell bread coming from the bakeries | mentioned. | CAMEO INTRODUCES NEW RUS- | SIAN FILM FRIDAY | ‘The Cameo Theatre brings another | new Russian picture this Friday, pre- senting “Cossacks of the Don,” di- rected by Soviet’s only woman prod- ucer, Olga Preobazhenskaya. She is best known for her remarkable work in “The Village of Sin,” which was highly praised. Unlike “Road to Life” which preached a U.S.S.R.’s message, “Cos- sacks of the Don” is a romance, giv- ing an insight on the every day in- timate existence of the colorful cos- sacks, e A |tempestuous Cossack woman, Played by Emma Cessarskaya, who was the heroine of “The Village of Sin,” is the center of the story. It is an adaptation from the well known Soviet novel “The Quiet River Don” | by Michael Scholokhov. “RED COMMANDER'S BRIDE” AT ACME THEATRE TODAY The Acme Theatre has booked an- other Soviet film, “The Red Com- mander’s Bride,” and will present the Picture at the playhouse on 14th Street and Union Square beginning today. The film was made by Prolet- kino in the U.S.S.R., and si @ ro- mance of the Red Army. The pro- duction was screened on an actual location of a Red Army unit. The entire company is non-professional, Alliance, made a motion to take off the Kuomintang flag near the speak- er’s stand, which, he pointed out, is the emblem of the butcher of the Chinese masses. Comrade Chen seconded the mo- tion and declared thta Kuomintang is the real murderer of the revolu- tionary masses in Shanghai, and res- ponsible for the disastrous retreat of the 19th Route Army by its capitula- tion to the Japanese and other im~- perialist and its betrayal of the fight- ing soldiers and workers. The Kuo- mintang lackeys, faced by this cour- ageous challenge, demanded to ex- pell the comrades, but failed. While Hsu and Chen were engaged in hot arguments with the Kuomin- tang students, Comrade Yu stepped up to the platform, pulled down the Kuomintang flag and shouted, “Down with Kuomintang,” “Down with Jap- | anese and world imperialism.” Con- sequently 15 Kué@mintang students, | including the chairman, fled away from the meeting. The remaining~students continued the meeting under the leadership of the several comrades present. A new chairman was elected. All stood up and remained silent for three min- utes as a tribute to those revolution- ary soldiers and workers who sacri- ficed theri lives in the struggle a- gainst the Japanese imperialism. ‘This was followed by brief speeches of Comrade Hsu and Yu, emphasizing again the treachery of Kuomintang as the tool of imperialism and point- ing out that the workers and,pea- sants revolution under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, is the only way to liberate China from the imperialist chains. A frank dis- cussion then took place, the meeting was adjourned in good order and| many students expressed their opin- ion that they were greatly enlighten- | ed by the speeches of Hsu and Yu, ANY 31.50 OR $1 INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHERS BOOK WITH ONE 12-MONTH SUBSCRIPTION TO THE DAILY WORKER NEIGHBORHOOD THEATRES EAST SIDE—BBONE RKO ony <fo TEN ||| AMEN WEDNESDAY to FRIDAY POLA NEGRI “A WOMAN COMMANDS” ROLAND YOUNG BASTL bse ahd and H.

In spite of the freez- ing weather the demonstration showed clearly that the tens of thou- sands of unemployed workers of Nas- sau County do not propose to starve to death quietly while thousands of parasites are living in luxury that was wrung from their blood. ‘When the spokesman entered the chamber of the board of supervisors, he was informed that he would be permitted to speak for only five min- utes, as the board had “important business to take up”. Here the poli- ticians, the “representatives of the |people” showed their true colors as demagogues.

G. Tugwell, wrote “Soviet Russia in the Second Decade.” This book very effectively served to clarify many false impressions about the Soviet Union. All trade unionists, regardless of the revolutionary unions, should at- tend this meeting.

The subject of his lecture is “How Shall Our De- mand for Unemployment Insurance Be Realized?” masses was thrust aside in favor of “more important business”. The spokesman returned to give a report of the answer of the board of supervisors. The answer was re- ceived with a hearty boo.
