The demands were adopted last Sunday at a membership meeting of the printers, where it was voted to call a strike should the publishers refuse | to yield. | Members of the Union gathered at | the open forum called by the Amal- mation Party of the Typographical | Gnion at its headquarters, 40 West 18th Street, Monday night to discuss he commercial and newspaper wage cales and the agreement which is The three the with |now being negotiated. principal speakers discussed | pending negotiations.

Local 9 Leaders Hit Bosses in Clique Expose Schwartz As) Racketeer | NEW YORE.—Proof of boss con-| nections and racketeering amon some of the accusers of the left wing dministration of Local 9 of the In- ternational Ladies Garment Workers’ | | Union was presented yesterday at} their trial before the General Exec- utive Board now being held at In- treet. Left wing leaders who are conduct- ing their own defense called several of the clique supporters who had brought about their trial to the stand today. M. Miner, one of those who demand the ousting of the left wing, was questioned regarding his attendance at meetings other than that of the International. His denial brought laughter from the listeners. J. Koenigsberg, a supporter of the left wing, was called to substantiate © | the charge of the left wing that Miner and several others who are now sup- porting the clique spoke on the plat- form of the Industrial Union in Oc- tober 1932, Koenigsberg declared that he was chairman of the meeting and reported that they too had been guilty of denouncing the Kurzman leadership of local 9 and had admit- ted conditions were bad in the shops. | . Max Schwartz, the chief accuser of the left wingers, was forced to admit | that he had been in business in 1929- 30 and a silent partner for the boss for whom he worked in 1933. The business agent of the local at that ,| time was ordered to remove him from office in the local. His standing as a defender of the union was con- | siderably deflated when the defense produced a witness who showed that he had taken $10 as initiation fee al- | though not an official, and had not | turned it in. No attempt to squirm out of the charge coud! cover up this racketeering. The trial committee called a halt to the questioning and left the room to confer. Later they ruled the right to this line of ques- tioning. Goldstein and Finkelstein, called to the stand, were also shown to be bosses. Sam Berman, former vice chairman who had supported the right wing and {s now backing the left wing ad- ministration, declared that he had left the Kurzman clique because he was convinced that they were not sincere on the question of week work. | He made a detailed exposure of their acts of treachery against the work- ers, Throughout the proceedings of the trial the defense was able to show that the clique, which charges the present administration with having violated the constitution, were them- selves responsible for these acts when it served their own purposes. They showed that they had voted against | a tax to carry on organization work is 1929.

He demanded | an immediate retraction. “Saturday's. demonstration,” de- | clared Moore, “was a profound ex- | pression of the indignation of the | lynch verdict and the spreading lynch | terror, and an expression of their de- termination to fight. The parade car. ried no banner ‘lynch the lynchers, as falsely reported by the ‘Mirror,’ but carried slogans demanding the death | penalty to the lynchers.” Moore branded the article as an expression of the lying propaganda of the press controlled by the rich oppressors which attempt to feature the Negroes as sub-normal, sub- human beings without brains or manhood enough to resent or act against the atrocities perpetrated against them.” Moore's backed up by Mrs. Patience William: of the Garvey Club of the Univer Negro Improvement Association, declared that the Garvey masses Harlem are stirred to our depths. We | have blood in our eyes. We are de- termined to fight against lynchings and lynch verdicts. We will not stand for such lies people.” James W. Ford, section organizer of the Communist Party in Harem, and other members of the delegation like- | wise expressed their indignation. The delegation included representatives | from the Odd Fellows, the Knights of | Pythias, the National Students League, the Harlem Unemployed | Council, the Hospital Workers, the LS.N.R., | fense and other organizations. In answer to the hypocr: al pro- | fessions of “sympathy” for the Negro | | masses by the “Mirror's” city editor, | the delegation declared that these | professions did not jibe with the slan- | derous attacks on Negroes in the col- |umns of the “Mirror.” They declared that unless an immediate retraction was forthcoming, the Negro and white in masses before the “Mirror’s” office.

He added that witnesses from prison cannot be expected to speak freely since thou- sands were languishing in concen- tration camps, prisons, penal -ser- vitude. Dimitroff demanded that world-known Communist Party leaders such as Marcel Cachin, etc., be called to testify in court to prove that the Communist Party was not @ sect or a group of conspirators, but a world mass party, “I shall settle with the prosecutor and his masters,” Dimitroff said. Witness Rudolph Otto, alleged to be an ex-functionary of the Commu- nist Party, asserted that the former Communist Reichstag Deputy Fran- ziska Kessel, had told him that he must distribute leaflets on the Reichstag fire or it would cause the loss of Torgler’s life. The leaflet, he testified, stated that Nero had burned |Rome to persecute Christians, and that Hitler and Goering had burned the Reichstag to furnish a pretext for the persecution of Communists. Dimitroff demanded that Kessel, now imprisoned in Darmstadt on a three years’ sentence for high treason, be called to testify. The presiding judge here inserted an unprecedented provocation preparation for a bloody verdict by reading sentences including death penalties against Communists for al- leged attacks on storm troopers, $3 FROM POLISH CLUB NEW BRITAIN, Conn.—The Polish Workers Club, No, 55, of this town, realizing the need of the Daily Work- er for foreign-born as well as nativ |born workers in their struggles against | capitalism, contributed $3 to the “Daily.” FROM LUTHANIAN WORKERS HARTFORD, Conn.—The Lithuan- ian Workers’ organization set aside $7, part of its income from a dance for the Daily Worker to help put the | $40,000 drive over the top, “Daily Mirror” {— DAY, DECEMBER 6, 1938 ‘N eedle ‘Trades Workers in n Monster Scottsboro Protest man for the delega- | ‘or” head. | ete., was @ scurrilous | | attack on the anti-lynching movement | land an attempt to further the open | incitement of lynching in emulation | masses of Harlem against the Decatur | protests were vigorously | vg who | ticipated in the demonstration, and “I } am here to tell you as a black mother | of 14 children, we black mothers of | against the Negro| the International Labor De- | workers of Harlem would demonstrate | ; against the fascist dictatorship or a thing was ready for defense and not | | had been examined in the political | in| | Westerday’s demonstration of thousands of New | York Needle Trades workers on West 36th St. raised | a mighty protest against the Decatur Iynch verdict and voted enthusiastic support for the Scottsboro dem- | onstration called for this coming Saturday in Union | Square.

Als only nine | ple glad Columbia was invited. But he remembers a chilly and fantastic night in Ciudad Juarez across the Mexican border. ‘The young man had recently been re- quested by Torreon authorities to look about for a fast train to the states and he had spent a sleepless night rattling through the lousy Chi- huahua desert. He arrived in Juarez with three dollars in the pocket of a shabby pair of corduroys to find his papers weren’t in order and there was: no way of crossing the Rio Grande for a couple of weeks until New York sent word.

During the earlier part of the evenings he fre- quented the native bars and hung about the roulette tables but after midnight he transferred to a large light place where the Texas cow- boys came. Many shots were fired into the ceiling but nobody ever shot anybody and fist-fights kept the saloon very interesting. After each shot a patrol of con- stabulary dropped in to investigate and to have a drink. The cowboys always treated.

They may have won it at roulette. NE night there were no cowboys, there were only hangers-on and a Jean man who wore a white vest and paid for the music. And the music was three guitars and three minstrels and the intensity of the border town swirled in filthy currents and the ragged men panged wearily and drawled a ballad of Villa who had a number of notable engagements in the vicinity. Then they stood up be- cause they heard a great noise out- side and two busloads of shouting and laughing people pulled up. ‘Young people, American, and very well dressed. They piled into the bar- room filling all the tables, even the Jonely young man’s and the waiters couldn’t begin to handle them and there was an influx of girls from the neighboring houses. Half the people were already tight. ‘OUR sat at the young man’s table and from them he learned the details, They were students and some faculty from the University of Alabama and they were going to Pasadena to see their team perform in the Rose Bowl game and they had dropped over the border for cerveza and tequila, that's what they cali them, ain’t it, sugar? ‘The native girls were small and pock-marked and undernourished, and no match for the coeds who were almost uniformly good-look- ing even under the hideous south- ern make-up. Some of the boys went off with the Mexicans but the rest seethed in the bar-room, drink- ing and operating slot machines. ‘They were giving two to one against Washington State and the young man thought the odds were too high but Alabama did win by four touch- downs. Neither the East nor the South has won since. He had no money for more Tom and Jerrys but an alumnus who looked like Gary Cooper kept treat- ing him and the alumnus said he was a district attorney’s son and by god no American citizen is gonna be stranded in a furrin country if he had anything to say about it and he was going to shoot it out with the immi- gration authorities and get them fired and how would the Tom and Jerry young man like to duck under a seat in the bus as they crossed the bridge ‘Tom and Jerry said he was getting his pass in a day or two so there was no point in taking chances and alum- nus said it was an ornery shame, innyhow, Rolie mob kept drinking and cheering for the team and ol’ Tuscaloosa and the Mexican girls whom the cops had chased out looked in wondering through the swinging door. And the coeds giggled at the French postcards on the walls and the faculty was los- ing shreds of its dignity and every- body hoped the Crimson Tide would ‘ triumph except the barkeep and the waiters and the Mexican girls and the young man who doesn’t even care how Columbia makes out. He'd like to be there New Year’s to enjoy the spectacle, but so far as the football supremacy of the East or the West is concerned, he remains blandly un- responsive.
