From the balcony of the Trade Union Hall, Petrovsky greeted the mass of 40,000 workers, saying “We declare to the whole world that. | we will struggle with every means at our command against a new imper- jalist war.” Drawing a picture of the | great achievements of the Dniepro- stroy workers, Petrovsy then urged further efforts in the field of Social- ist construction and the defense of the Socialist Fatherland.

A mob of about 1,500 attacked our headquarters and were again repulsed though we also had some losses. It was quite an experience during the attack, with the doors being bat- tered in, rocks crashing through the windows, telephone and lights cut off, and only about 25 comrades defend- ing the building. We on our part held the doors secure, and when the door showed sign of breaking we showered slates, and bricks off the roof on the mob and forced them to |Tetreat.

For my part. I was lucky to get off so lightly, with a cut head, loose teeth, bruised lips and a black eye. However, we were told to lie low for a while.
