Holmes, the special corres- pondent of the London “Daily Work- | er” inthe Soviet Union writes: The’ “Daily Express,” the Berlin “Lokal-Anzeiger” and other bour- geois papers are publishing their reg- ular “Telegrams from Moscow,” “Fa- mine Riots,” “Workers Raid Food Stores in ' Ivanovo-Voznessensk,” “Troops Shoot Workers Attacking ‘Phops,” etc. I have just returned from Ivanovo- Woznessensk after a tour of the So- viet textile district, and definitely state that the statements of the “Daily Express” are imaginary from beginning to end. It is unnecessary to add that no representative of the “Daily Express” or other papers print- ing this news has been to Ivanovo- ‘Voznessensk. Whilst staying in Ivanovo-Voznes- sensk I lived and ate with textile workers. The only bread riots I heard of were those of 1915, when the bour- geoisie ordered cossacks to shoot down striking workers.. But the, Ivanovo workers soon drove out their bour- geoisie and now, together with the working class of the whole of the So- viet Union, are overcoming all diffi- culties in their path, are building so- cialist economy, and building it well. All Ivanovo-Voznessensk factories, both old and new, are working to full capacity, three shifts, no unemployed in the Ivanovo region or in the So- viet Union, ‘ | COMMUNIST PHILADELPHIA—A meeting of the youth committee of the Commu- nist Party election campaign held here last week was attended by over two hundred young workers. A Re- publican candidate tried to disrupt the meeting, but was forced to take the stand and defend his position. He was booed off by the audience. Saas eae PHILLY YOUTH TO.

He was supposed to get $2 of groceries, but we only get $1.26 worth and there are 7 in the family. We receive nothing but what my hus- band makes. We also have a friend working on the Big Four R.R, and there are 9 in his family. In the last 2 months, he had two wagecuts of $2.07 each, and the laborers that worked on the city relief received the same treat- ment, Two children have already died from the canned goods received from |the Welfare Relief as part payment jon work done.

Miners Urged to Rally to Mass Scottsboro Defense PITTSBURGH, O.. Sept. 27—In a statement issued today, comrade Vincent Kemenovich, secretary of Western Pennsylvania district of the National Miners Union, called upon all locals and groups of miners to elect and send delegates to the In- ternational Labor Defense district convention which opens on Oct. 2 at 10 am. at Pythian Temple, at 2011 Center Ave. The central point of the Convention will be the fight to free the Scottsboro boys. He pointed out thatonly a strong defense. movement . will release: the fighting coal miners from the Blaw- nox Penitentiary, and prevent the deportation of Borich and himself and free Tom Mooney and the Scottsboro boys, DIETETICS FOR THE STARVING In a circular letter to aN teachers on Health Day, Sept 22, Dr. O’Shea, Superintendent of Schools of New York City, gave this public-spirited advice on what to do for .“under- nourished” (starving) children: ‘Teachers should begin their follow- up work by giving undernourisshed children special classroom instruction in dietetics (the science of eating the right kind of food) and the value of rest, sleep, fresh air. and sunshine.” What the cheildren need is not the science of eating correctly, but food.

La Guardia Challenged By 1,200 Workers to Debate Earl Browder NEW YORK, Sept, 23, — At the conclusion of a speech filled with many radical phrases delivered by Fiorello LaGuardia, boss-party Con- gressman from the 20th Congres- sional District, Wednesday night in Star Casino, representative of the Italian Workers Center challenged LaGuardia to debate Earl Browder, Communist candidate from the 20th Congressional District The challenge which LaGuardia saiq he would con- sider was presented in the form of a petition signed by 1,200 workers of Harlem, This Monday, members of the Italian Workers Center will approach LaGuardia in his office, 395 Madison Avenue, with a demand that he come ;out openly whether or not he will !debate Earl Browder. Clinic Stalls Workers Needing Quick Relief ATLANTA, Ga—I applied to the Grady Hospital Emergency Clinic and was told to go to the Medical Clinic for an examination, also to get some medicine, My number was 29 in line, The staff took care of 21 workers and housewives, and left ten of us, who were told to return four days later. Many of these ten needed immediate attention. If a worker applies for treatment and medicine (on charity) at these hospiitals, they will not do anything for him if he has not been in the city for twelve consecutive months. They also refuse to take chronic cases in for treatment. A Worker, Annual Picnic of ILD In California, Helps Class War Prisoners LOS ANGELES, Sept. 27—Inter- national Labor Defense, California District is defending 18 workers, now in ji or awaiting appeal on sen- tences. Five of these have been in jail for nine months, held for depor- tation to fascist Japan and India, as a result of the Long Beach raids, January 15, 1932. The six “Free Mooney Runners” are in jail, awaiting appeal, from a sentence of nine months to a year. In addition, we must fight 19 cases of workers arrested and held for de- portation to such countries as: Japan, Poland, Greece, Spain, Sweden, Eng- land, etc., etc. Many cases of “disturbing the peace,” “distributing leaflets,” “speak- ing without a permit,” “assault,” “battery,” etc., are pending or on ap- peal; in San Diego, San Pedro, Los Angeles, ete.

Meanwhile, yesterday at the big- gest meeting ever held in ,the mill area, Nelson, the chairman of the weavers’ committee declared amidst enthusiastic cheers and tremendous enthusiasm, that the weavers should ignore the settlement and continue the strike. At Blackburne several mill owners tried to reopen under the wage cut terms, and mass picketing prevented all but a handful of scabs from en- tering. There is the most intense nitter feeling everywhere among the work- ers over the treachery of the weavers’ union leaders and the wage cut set- tlement. Soviet Declines to Extend Recognition to the Tokio Puppets ‘Tokyo newspapers yesterday pub- lished a report that the Soviet Government has turned down 2@ request by the Japanese Ambassador to Moscow, that it grant full recog- nition to the Japanese puppet state in Manchuria, The Soviet Assistant Foreign Commissar Karakhan is quoted as stating that the Soviet Union would accept Manchoukuo’s consuls in Siberia and would even re- ceive a Consul General in Moscow, if the Manchoukuo -“government” de- sires, The New York Tribune correspond- ent at Tokio cabled his paper that the Soviet’ Union is striving ener- getically for peace and has again raised with Japan the question of signing a non-aggression pact. He re- ports that the Japanese militarists are “unwilling to make a specific pledge at this time not to go to war with Russia in the future.” He also re- ports that the Japanese militarists are greatly pleased by the failure of the Washington government to pro- test Japan’s recognition of its puppet state in Manchuria.

Mi) Ada Wright, now touring Europe on behalf of her two sons, Andy and Roy and the seven other Scottsboro lads, yesterday sent her greetings to the American workers when she in- formed of American preparations for National Scottsboro Week from Oct. 3 to October 10. “The comrhdes over here, said Mrs, Wright, “in England, Germany France and Austria and a dozen oth countries are also working harder and harder for the freedom of our boys as the time for the review of their case by the Supreme Court comes closer. “Everybody here is concentrating on the demonstrations that are going to be held on October 8 in front of the American consulates and embassies.

S. Supreme Court for review on Oct. 10. There is no doubt that the local white officialdom is trying to turn Lee’s trial into a pre- lude of defeat for the Scottsboro boys. Newspapers in Baltimore and vi- cinity are trying to create a general belief that dire and violent things were imminent if Bernard Ades, David Levinson and Errol White, In ternational Labor Defense attorneys, were permitted to win even the slightest legal victory. When the trial opened on Monday, presiding Judge T. Scott Offutt de- nied five motions made by the de- fense to secure a minimum of fair consideration for Lee. A motion to have the original indictment de- clared illegal was immediately over- ruled. A request for a chenge of venue from Townson, in Baltimore County to Baltimore City was also denied. When Levinson asked that he be provided with copies of the testimony given by the prosecution witnesses in the first trial, the court informed him that this material was not available. Only Lee’s testimony had been trans- scribed. The court also refused to consider Levinson’s protest against methods of drawing the 200 names from which the jury panel was drawn. Three Negroes were included on this list to forestall the arguinent that Negroes were not represented in the jurv panel. The second trial was granted because no Negroes had been in the jury panel. Levinson ‘protested that three Ne- groes in a list of 200 prospective ju- rors was insufficient in view of the fact that about ten per cent of the population in Baltimore County is Negro. The legalistic trickery foreseen took place with the assistance of Judge Offutt. Two of the three prospective Negro jurors were refused by the prosecution when they were brought in for examination. The other was 2 not called.

Workers cf U.S. Will Demonstrate Against The National Office of the Inter- national Labor Defense yesterday dispatched a message of bitter pro- test to Mussolini, cious treatment of 200 Italian Com- munists, who, for ten days, have been on a hunger strike in the Civitavec- chia jail. News of the strike. and th efact that three of the prisoners had al- ready died of hunger and torture was made known on Friday gram from the Itajian Section of the International Red Aid. The three who have died at the hands of Mus- solini’s jailers are Terracini. LiCansi and Pianezza. The lives of numer- ous others are also in grave danger, according to the message. In its pretest message, the Inter- national Labor Defense, American Section of the International Red Aid, said, in part: “The American workers demand the immediate freedom of the 200 Communist hunger strikers in Civit- avecchia. Demonstrations before the Italian embassy and every Italien consulate in America will hammer home the fact that the workers of America will not tolerate the sacri- fice of their Italian comrades to the unbridled ferocity of Italian imper- ialism and its fascist agents.” The message was signed by Carl Hacker, acting secretary of the ILD. Meanwhile, preparations for protest meetings and demonstrations men- tioned in the message are under way in New York and in other cities.

The demands are: 1. Against any wage cut, wors- ened conditions and fake agree- ment. 2. For a rank and file | committee to be elected and seni | to New York to present the long- shoremen’s demands to the con- ference now being held between President Ryan of the LL.A. and the ship owners. 3. For eight or more men in the hold, and 8 on the dock; four men on steel light- | ers, and 4 men on cars of lumber. 4, Reduction of size of loads of all drafts, slings, skids and trucks by at least one quarter. 5. Eight hours a day. 6. Full union wages 7 Regular shape- up three times a day. 8. No discri- mination, no favorite gangs in put- ting out work. These demands were to be pre- sented at the regular meeting which rank and file pressure finally forced the LL.A. international official, Polly Baker, to sanction here, last night. And another of the demands to be presented at that meeting was “im- mediate removal and expulsion of Polly Baker and election of new of- ficials by the rank and file.” Leaflets circulated by the rank and file committee point out that the longshoremen have contributed many |dollars to the ILL.A., without being told where the mcney goes. | The longshoremen’s leaflet says: \“Both Black and White must stick together to run the LL.A. ourselves | Werene, Wxrs Lyceum 2.90/and stop wage cutting and worse | d° Goia pple conditions.” Rakochy riend — I Doegnan TH to date $3010 W.
