Munloyal, was in port at the time and shortly after the strike was called this ship was shifted over to the Fell St. docks, The longshoremen formed a mass Picket line in front of the docks. Delegates from the Marine Work- ers’ Industrial Union succeeded in getting through the docks into the ship to try and get the crew to also take action in support of the long- off the ship they talked to the long- shoremen and gave them leaflets and said that the crew promised not to drive winches and if scabs attempted to work that they would drive them Secretary of the} |for addressing a meeting of the| count of the struggle of the miners} shoremen.

Leibowitz, attorney retained in the case by the |I.L.D., were expressed today by Les- ter Carter, one of the star defense | witnesses in the Decatur tr return from the South. “The white workers of the South are not lynchers,” he said: “I am a white Southern worker and I have talked with many others, even | during my last trip South. They are | being incited to lynct by the white id sharp sel; | boss press, but many of them are be- ginning to realize that the lynch policy is a policy of divide and rule. “The remarks made by Attorney | Leibowitz in his summation to the | jury, about myself and other white | Southern workers, don’t help a bit jin winning them over—no matter | how brilliant the rest of his defense | was. Attorney, Slandered Southern Workers | “I want the whole workingclass to | know that my name, and the whole | White Southern kingelass, was | slandered by the defense attorney | “I want to do all I can to save the | Scottsboro boys, but I still have to |live in this country, and I have to | live with the workers, I believe any Scottsboro boys, two of whom sentences by Judge W.

The Interna- tional Labor Defense recognizes the part played by Lester Carter origin- ally in the frame-up of the Scotts- boro boys, and, as well, the part played by Ruby Bates. It recognizes however in the repudiation of their position by both of these young Southern workers, the tremendous force of the working class movement and the wonderful potentialities of Southern white workers once the | racial-national issues there are clari- | fied. “Carter and Ruby Bates are not to be condemned upon the basis of their past. Today they stand in the fore- front of a developing movement of revolt on the part of Southern white workers, a movement which will be indissolubly linked up with the move- ment of the Negro masses of the South for liberation. There can only be the highest praise and commenda- tion extended to them for the heroic Position they have taken. “Both have braved death to undo the damage they have done in the Scottsboro case. Both of them are willing to do this again. While they are not members of the International Labor Defense, it would welcome such elements in its ranks.” Dimitroff Clashes With Nazi Judge in Fire Trial Session | | (Continued from Page 1) | raised for emphasis. | The prosecutor stated that he had never asserted that the defendant was {the same Dimitroff involved in the | Sofia explosion. | “But the German press,” Dimitroff | declared, “has influenced public opin- ion for months on this matter, and previous examinations were based on the fictitious supposition that I ex- ploded the Cathedral, and was, there- fore, a probable wire-puller in the | Reichstag fire.” | The presiding judge reprimanded |Dimitroff for his “disrespectful lan- guage”; and the public prosecutor went on to state that the initial sus- Picion had seemed to justify their |claim that Dimitroff was involved in |the Sofia explosion. Dimitroff was |not permitted to reply. Blagoi Popoff, | Vassil Taneff, the other Communist | defendants on trial with Ernst Torg- |ler and Dimitroff, also protested aginst the suspicion that the Nazis had spread about Dimitroff and the | Sofia affair, Dimitroff asked why these false sus- picions had not been cleared up. “I proposed immediate investigation,” he declared, “And, to my surprise, was supported by the public prosecutor.” The presiding judge followed Di- mitroff’s remarks by declaring that “Such interpolations as ‘to my aston- ishment’ are disrespectful and im- permissible.” “You are nervous today, Mister President,” Dimitroff declared. “You are insolent!” angrily replied the purple-faced judge. | “You can expel me,” replied Di- mitroff. Presiding Judge: “I shall do so even to the very last day.” Dimitroff: “It is not my fault that the prosecution has had such bad luck with its leading witnesses, who turn out to be psychopaths, liars and forgers.” The presiding judge said that the expression “bad luck” was impermis- sible and imposed silence on Dimit- ff, But the fearless Communist de- fendant, irrepressible as ever, de- clared that he must defend himself. The court, after ® consultation, an- nounced: If Dimitroff again fails |to despect the presiding judge’s in- Junctions or uses unsuitable language, he will be automatically expelled. Dimitroff's remarks about the psy- | chopaths, liars and forgers referred to earlier events in today's session, in which Van der Lubbe had repeated a previous demand for a speedy ver- dict. “How long is this going to last?” Van der Lubbe cried out, upon which the presiding judge stated that he hoped that today’s session would end the examinations of witnesses. Van der Lubbe replied: “Can’t you hurry the verdict?” Medical certificates were read which showed that the crown witness, Grothe, a psychopath, was freed from military service on ac- count of hysterics; he was scarcely re- sponsible for his actions. Medical ex- perts designated the witness Kaemp- fer as unworthy of any credence and stated that Leberman was highly psy- chopathic. Dimitroff requested the reading of @ verdict on the Nazi putsch of No- vember, 1923, in Munich. The presid- ing judge declared that the court would decide that. The public prose- cutor stated that Dimitroff had for- merly been reprimanded by Zinoviev for not following Moscow instruc- tions. Dimitroff immediately replied that it was untrue that he, Popoff and Taneff were sent to Germany by the Communist International for the purpose of setting fire to the Reichs- tag and starting an insurrection. The presiding judge said that he would not tolerate a defense of Communism in the Supreme Court. Dimitroff immediately replied: “T don’t defend Communism, which does not need my defense. I defend myself politically as a Communist.” Dimitroff stated that it was true that he and his friends had once been reprimanded politically; they had committed grave errors in the Bul- garian uprising of 1923, he declared. They had failed to combat sharply enough Stambulinsky, then premier peasants’ leader and afterward mur- dered. But, he declared, precisely be- cause they had learned by errors, the assertion is absurd that the Commu- nist International desired an uprising Soar in the first months of 1933, Ship and Longshore Strikes Wo n Through | off the ship. This was received en- thusiastically by the longshoremen, One of the IL.A. delegates asked an MW.1IU. delegate if the M.W.1.U, would support the longshoremen as | the longshoremen had previously sup- | ported a strike led by the M.W.I.U. He was told that the M.W.I.U. would give its fullest support to the rank and file Jongshoremen, and was met with cheers. That evening the president of the ILA. approached an M.W.LU, delegate and officially asked for sup- port. He even went with a commit- tee to the police station and de- manded a permit for an M.W.LU. delegate to board the ship. However, it was refused. A joint picket line was then formed, and the L L. A. officials agreed. The I. L. A. asked that in case of any arrests that the International Labor Defense should give legal advice and defense. The next morning approximately 600 longshoremen were mobilized around the docks and over a hun~ dred seamen, The police were also mobilized, as uStial, with riot guns and other war material. Launches were used to patrol the ship with, although the police boat was tied aft of the Munloyal and would not allow the launch in closer than a hundred feet of the ship. The I L. A. officials permitted the M. W. I. U. to use the launches any time they wanted them, and seamen and long- joremen were picketing together by land and by water. Scabs Chased Away Around eight o'clock scabs were discovered in the docks ready to One of the launches, loaded with seamen and longshoremen, went past the police boat and landed and started after the scabs. The police went into the docks and when they did about 500 longshoremen and sea- men crashed the docks, The scabs were chased off the docks and up the street. Afterwards about 15 police, armed with machine guns, mobilized on the docks, but picketing continued, About 1 o'clock the LL.A. officials made an agreement with the company for the increase and the longshore- men's strike was called off by the officials, The crew of the ship a few minutes later came to the M. W. I, U. hall and drew up their demands, and when told that the I. L. A. officials would put the longshoremen back to work they decided that they would strike for their demands anyway, They went back to the ship and pre- sented their demands to the company agent and the captain. At first they were threatened to all be paid off and fired, so the ship’s committee told the company that they would stay out until all demands were won. The company agent then went ashore looking for scabs and every place he went he was laughed at by the sea- men, Officials Break Unity In the meantime delegates from the M. W. I, U. went to see the I, L, A. officials to get them to support the strike by knocking the longshoremen off. The I, L, A. officials refused not by issuing a flat statement but by maneuvering around. —% iLL.A. Officials Forced By Workers To Accept Unity with M.W.LU. went to work; however over 20 long- shoremen refused to work. A com- mittee of seamen went to the LL.A. headquarters and talked to the presi- dent, In the hall were about 150 jJongshoremen and when he saw he was cornered he finally agreed to call his men off the docks. He was forced to this maneuver by the fact that these rank and file longshoremen | Zimmerman Sabotages | | Union (A.

Meeting, Rejects the Sending of Wire NEW YORK.—The Lovestoneite machine of Charles Zimmerman voted down a motion to participate in Saturday's Union Square demon- stration for the Scottsboro boys Tues- day night at the executive board meeting of Local 22 of the Interna- tional Ladies’ Garment Workers’; With Nelson, chairman of the and other Lovestoneites, Zimmerman also voted down a mo- tion to send a telegram to Judge Callahan protesting against the rail- roading of the Scottsboro boys to death on framed-up charges. The Lovestoneites spoke against financial support to the Scottsboro campaign. At the opening of the meeting, for the first time Chairman Nelson de- clared that the session must be closed and the hall was cleared and an executive session was held. The mem- bers of the local were indignant. Executive board member Silverblatt protested against the chair’s ruling, and stated that this ruling was against all past procedure and against trade union democracy. The Lovestoneite Nelson said that an executive board member had asked for executive sessions, and the I. L. G. W. U. constitution provided for such sessions, Nelson refused to rec- ognize Silverblatt’s counter-motion for an open session, with union members allowed to be present. A committee of the International Labor Defense then came to the board, requesting the board to call all dressmakers to Saturday’s united front demonstration and further re- questing that financial aid be con- tributed for the Scottsboro campaign, which is led by the International La- bor Defense. In order to bury the request for financial ald it was re- ferred by Zimmerman and Nelson to the financial committee, and Nelson, member of the financial committee, said he would see to it that nothing is contributed. Silverblatt then made a motion that the board send a telegram to Callahan to protest the lynch verdict on Patterson, and (2) to call on all dressmakers to participate in this Saturday’s demonstration at Union Square at noon. Zimmerman refused to recognize these two motions. Nel- son then spoke, and said the local should not be “the tail end of any organization.” Nelson urged the dressmakers not to participate in Saturday’s demonstration, and not to send any telegram. Silverblatt appealed from the de- cision of the chair in refusing to put his motions for defense of the Scotts- boro boys. Silverblatt spoke on the importance of supporting the Scotts- boro case, the fight for the Negro workers, against lynching, and the issues involved in the case. Zim- merman then railroaded through the vote against support of the Scotts- boro boys. The International Labor Defense urges all dressmakers to refuse to allow the Lovestoneite-A. F. of L. officials of Local 22 to sabotage the Scottsboro case. The I. L, D. urges all dressmakers to come out in masses to the Union Square demonstration.

Dressmakers’ Forum Left Wing Group, Local 22, ILL.G. were present, and, when they under- stood what it was all about, they started shouting that they would support the strike, However, within a few minutes the ship's committee had come to an agreement and the strike was won, Lots of the longshoremen did not like it when other longshoremen were sent to work, and let their officials know it in no uncertain terms. The officials tried to avoid coming in contact with the pickets as much as possible all during the strike, but the longshoremen, seeing the seamen fight with them, know of the sup- port given them and also realize that it was through this that the strike was won and not by the I.

But in the rest of the metro- politan press even the first day of repeal failed to moderate the orgy| of copy inspired by the prospect. The Times devotes to it two solid columns of news, while the Mirror splurges an entire sports front page, including a detailed analysis of the effect of atmospheric conditions on each Bown game since 1916. The Daily News’ head on the story an- nouncing the Columbia Spectator’s long editorial about the contest reads: “Heavenly Days! Spectator Puts Blast On Trip!” Editor Beichman’s piece has met with the universal scorn which attended Reed Harris. Pe ae ARKER, Daily Mirror columnist and editor, counters with “The fact that the boys on the football team will get only a battering at the Rose Bowl, fighting for dear old Columbia, whereas Editor Beichman, who is talking about commercialism, doesn’t have to | soil his lily-white hands as he pounds out his editorials in the security of his sanctum, knowing that he will share in the profits of The Spectator... .” From the Times head we learn that “Columbia Is Facing Loss of Ferrara,” the co-captain-elect hav- ing failed his midterms in French and physics. But for the Spectator “it is not a question of personali- ties so much as it is a question of principle.” Let me quote you parts of the edi- torial which may be a bid for pub- licity or a partly healthy document: “The squad has just completed one of the most successful seasons in Morningside history. Now the team is to be sent 3,000 miles away to show its unique ability in booting a tiny Pigskin before mobs for whom this university signifies solely a gG0d foot- ball team. (Tut, tut, EN.) “The men who accepted this invita- tion (to the Pasadena game) will not deny that the game is ‘a tre- mendous money-making proposition no matter how much will be dis- tributed to charities, Further, the men who fell all over themselves be- fore this hullaballoo have betrayed the trust placed in them if we re- alize that Columbia University has been @ leader in intercollegiate foot- ball on a sane and decent level. “The administration completely for- got its ideals when it accepted this invitation. It means a tremendous spurt in the ballyhoo and sophomoric enthusiasm deplored in recent years by men and Wwomen—including Presi- dent Butler—who have seen the grow- ing vices which such unmitigated emphasis was developing. “Columbia University had its chance yesterday to show conclu- sively that intercollegiate football is not a public (Tut, tut, EN.) spec- tacle for profit. It had its chance to stand out as pre-eminently a univer- sity devoted to the advancement of learning and research. By permitting the football team to strike out for Pasadena it has repudiated its own standards, “The Lion has joined the circus.” ieee F course “such unmitigated em- phasis” is wrong, But don’t make the mistake of thinking that “the administration completely for- got its ideals when it accepted the invitation” or that “it has repudi- ated its own standards.” All Columbia has repudiated are its PROFESSED standards, Isn’t just a wee bit insane to talk of “non-commercial ideals’?
