Gordon and Crawford were taken out from jail at 1 p. m. this morning, and im- mediately kidnapped by a gang which seized them while they were still in federal custody. They were then severely with broad branches of trees. Gordon and Crafword, workers’ leaders here, were arrested Monday while attending a meeting to organize the unemployed and fight for relief. They were held incommunicado and the state courts refused a writ of habeas corpus when the International Labor Defense applied for one. An attempt was then made to force their release through Federal Courts, or at least to break down the incommunicado and give them a chance to see their attorney. Reports were that the two Workers were being held on charges of “vio- lation of a federal injunction,” and “violation of the postal laws,” just on what basis was not made clear. Tampa was the scene last year of militant strikes in the tobacco fac- tories. Mass demonstrations were at- tacked and a number of workers thrown in jail and others deported. They were mainly Spanish speaking cigar makers. FILE COMMUNIST TICKET IN ALA. Foster-Ford Electors and Congressmen flogged BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 15.— The Communist Party has filed its list of presidential electors and Con- gressmen in Birmingham district, and will appear for the first time on the Alabama, ballot. One of the Communist candidates is Andrew Forsman, for over 40 years a militant leader of the workers. He was a member of the Knights of Labor, and of the Mobile Central Labor Union. He ran in 1920 on the Socialist ticket for U. S. Senator, but, after that election left the Socialist Party in disgust at its anti-working class character. The Communist Party is also on the ballot in Georgia and Tennessee, and expects to get on in Mississippi. In the whole South, the Communist election ¢: ‘ign this year will also be a drive to give the vote to the dis- franchised pc - toiling masses, work- ers and farmeis, and particularly Negroes, who are barred from the owar. Report War Shipments The dispatch reports the steady arrival of huge shipments of war supplies from the United States and many European countries, notably England, France and her puppet states on the western frontiers of the Soviet Union. (Information already received in this country show that the French puppet states are also accumulating huge stores of muni- tions in preparation for a joint at- tack, together with the Japanese im- Perialists, on workers’ Russia.) The Japanese industries are re- ported to be working day and night, rushing out vast quantities of war supplies, The foreign military attaches refer to the construction of strategic rail- Ways in north Korea as highly signi- ficant and further indicating Japan's intention to attack the Soviet Union. These railways, work on which is being rushed, will link up the Korean lines with the main rail transport lines in Manchuria, thus greatly fa- cilitating the movement of Japanese troopd toward the Soviet borders. The Japanese war preparations are in such an advanced stage and their anti-Soviet aim so evident that the foreign diplomatic corps in Japan do not hesitate to predict an early at- tack on the Soviet Union. A Tokio dispatch to the New York Sun re- ports: “A majority of American and some European observers believe that those who control the policy of Japan are preparing for a new Russo-Japanese war. Whether Japan wants this war or not is not clear. Some of the attaches think the Japanese do want it and want it quick, believing they can defeat Rusisa and gain control of the Amur River Valley and Vladivostok before Russia can complete coun- ter preparations including double tracking the trans-Siberian rail- way. These observers argue the Japanese have long felt they even- tually must fight Russia again and that they prefer to do it before the Soviet industrialization program advances further, making Russia a more formidable enemy.” The drive for war against the Soviet Union is further explained on the basis of the increasingly desperate position of Japanese capitalism. Caught in the vortex of & catastrophic crisis, a fierce fight for markets and the sharpening of the conflict with American imperialism for control of China and supremacy in the Paci- fic, the .Japanese imperialists are seeking a way out by armed inter- vention against the Soviet Union. The Japanese realize that the anti- Soviet front constitutes the only pos- sible grounds on which the’ im- perialists can now unite. They be- lieev that y starting the attack against the Soviet Union, they would succeed in temporarily pushing into the background the sharpening an- tagonisms between American and Japanese imperialisms. They are also confident that sooner or later the Wall Street imperialists would join in the armed intervention against the main class enemy of the dying cap- italist system. _ 3 Furniture Strikes Continue in N. Y.; Group Deserts AFL NEW YORK.—The strikes led by the Furniture Workers’ Industrial Union at the Ideal Chair Co. at Grand and Garrison Streets, Mas- peth, L. I, and the Diamond Mat- tress Co. at 4410 Third Avenue, are now in full swing, with ten more men going down today. Today, the workers of the Rockford Upholstery Co. at 511 Flushing Ave- nue have joined the Furniture Work- ers’ Industrial Union, which took over the leadership of their strike. ‘The workers formerly affiliated with Local 76 of the A. F. of L., expressed the opinion that the Local 76 leader- ship was corrupt and incapable of leading them in struggle, after which they unanimously voted to join the Furniture Workers’ Industrial Union. All workers are urged to join in and help these workers picket their shops, for a quick victory. iL Miner, Lacking Money Sends Ring to “Daily” The following two letters typify the spirit of workers who are straining every nerve, tapping every resource to help save the Daily Worker from suspension.

The trouble is that they are too poor to buy the Daily Worker. some money but because I am too poor, I am sending you my ring, the only thing I have left.” The second letter is from a worker in Hollidays Cove, W. Va. “I am sending you $8 from the steel workers of Weirton and Folens- bee, where the workers look to the “Daily” for guidance in their struggles. We have scraped this money together from our last pennies and nickels. We are willing to miss a meal or tobacco to help save our paper from suspension. We pledge $50 more in the coming month. Forward to the real struggles of the steel and metal workers.” I want to send you Workers, today’s donations came to $367.08, a drop of more than £100 from yesterday’s donations.

MUCH DISHARMONY HERE NEW YORK. — Ferdie Groef is composing .a “symphony” called Tabloid to be dedicated to the cap- dtalist press, 1 HOOVER IN NEW DRIVE ON VETS | Soeialists Stand by the Man in White House ““PORTEAND, "Ore, Sept. 15.—A resolution censuring the govern- ment for sending out anti-bonus propaganda through the mails in government envelopes was adopted at the American Legion Conven- tion here. PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 15.—The bonus resolution passed the American Legion Convention today despite at- tempts of President Hoover to frus- trate the resolution by a statement claiming that immediate payment of |the bonus would be a threat to his so-called recovery plans, The leaders of the Legion forced through resolutions yesterday de- manding a larger army and navy, op- posed the recognition of the Soviet Union and denounced the attempts to modify the naturalization laws to permit the: foreign born to become citizens without pledging to take up arms in the nation’s defense. WASHINGTON, D, C,, Sept, 15.— Herbert Hoover in a new attempt to justify his bloody attack on the war veterans in Washington and his stand against the full payment of the ex- servicemen’s bonus issued a state- ment yesterday in which he claimed that he was at one time in his life a “poor boy,” Crying that full payment of the bonus would mean inflation and fiat money, Hoover, who only recently signed the Glass-Steagall Act, which enabled the national banks to issue one billion dollars in paper and was the inflationary measure which brought about an immediate rise in commodity prices, said that the pay- ment of the bonus would be disas- trous. Socialists With Hoover. The socialists also say the same thing. But it is clear to all veterans and workers who are familiar with the program of the Workers Ex-ser- vicemen’s League that the demand of the rank and file is not for inflation of currency to pay the bonus, but that the rich should be taxed to pay this sum. Likewise does the W.E,S.L. suggest that the manufacturers and bankers shoulder the burden of un- employment insurance for all the un- employed workers, Hoover in his statement attempts to point out that the adjusted ser. vice certificates were not intended to be back wages, but that they were designed to be life insurance poli- cies, Indeed, the omly way a veteran can collect his bonus at the present time is to turn up his toes and die. This is what the veterans are fight- ing against, The bonus is considered as back pay and they do not want to wait until 1945 or die to get it, The Rank and File Conference to be held in Cleveland September 23 will raise the slogan of struggle for payment of the bonus at once. SWEDISH WORKERS SENTENCED FOR PICKETING STOCKHOLM. — Seven Swedish workers have been sentenced to a total of six years and six months of hard labor for participating in mass picketing before the paper mills in Skekkeftoo, Two leaders of the Communist Party have been convicted as “ring- leaders” and sentenced ta, two and half years of hard labor each.

At the end of the second day after the “stoppage” was to have begun, not more than three to four hundred workers have actually come out, ameng the more than 8,000 broad- silk workers in the Paterson mills. Many of these workers, seeing that they were betrayed by Muste, Budenz Gitlow, and the U.' T. W. officials, went back to work soon after com- ing out. Come To N-T.W. On Wednesday evening over 300 workers attended the mass meeting called by the N.T.W.U. All day Wed- nesday and Thursday representatives of the National Textile Workers Un- jon have been meeting with the strikers of various shops, helping them organize their ranks with Uni- ted Front shop committees. The U.T.W. has refused to hold any meetings with the workers on strike, and has openly opposed any mass picketing. Muste has been sitting in the U.T.W. office all day today and has refused to talk with the few strikers who came in to get advice from him as to what they were to do. U.T.W. Exposed The U.T.W. and Musteite leaders stand naked before the workers of Paterson as the perpetrators of the most shameful and dastardly betray- al ever put over against a strug- gle movement of the textile workers ‘of Paterson. After weeks of wild agitation in the columns of the local capitalist press, with sensational an- nouncements of conferences with the Mayor's Arbitration Board, the man- ufacturers and the Chamber of Com- merce, the U.T.W. did everything possible to prevent a strike and to break it up. / ‘The purpose of the U.T.W. was to place itself at the head of the grow- ing struggle of the Paterson silk workers in order to smash this strug- gle, to demoralize the workers, and thus to prevent the possibility of a real strike under the militant leader- ship of the National Textile Work- ers Union. . SOCIALIST RADIO STATION PICKETE Workers Denounce Its Jim-Crow Policy NEW YORK.—More than 100 work- ers picketed the socialist radio sta- tion in the Hotel Claridge yesterday in protest against the Jim Crow poli- cy of the Socialist Party, Recently the socialist leaders or- dered that the Negro lecturers, mu- sicians and entertainers who broad- cast over station WEVD, operated by the Socialist Party, should ride to the station in the freight elevators, because the white guests in the hotel had objected to Negroes riding in the same cars with them, ‘The pickéteers marched around the hotel for 45 minutes with placards denouncing the socialist leaders for their undisguised Jim Crow tactics against the Negro people. Among the thousands of passersby who stopped to read the placards were hundreds of Negro workers, Two of the picketers were arrest. ed, They are Fieldberg, Communist candidate for assembly in the Fifth District, and Mauriz.
