One of the Communists, who was sentenced to 15 years im- prisonment by the lower court, was sentenced to death by the Supreme Court. This is the first time in the history of Germany that, in answer to an appeal from the decision of a Jower court, a more severe sentence was imposed on the appellant.

Mass demonstra- tions for our heroic comrades must increase. By our combined mass will and mass struggles, we must stand ready, alongside the prole- tariat and sympathetic elements all aver the world. to shatter the Nazi frame-up verdict when it comes.” The National Committee, which is an organization of workers, ‘profes- sionals and intellectuals to come to the aid of victims of the Hitler ter- ror, issues a call for $1,000 to help icover the expenses for the reconven- ing of the International Committee te meet in London, which will take up the world campaign against the Hitler terror.

This startling announcement came when Henry Woolman, president of one Philadelphia’s largest dairy com- panies, and a director on the Board of the second largest Wall Street milk monopoly, National Dairy Products, admitted to a Senate Committee in- vestigating the milk situation, that he had a desk in the offices of Clyde King, the director of the A.A.A. milk division, in order to “co-ordinate” the work of the government office with the big dairy monopolies, National Dairy controls such companies as Sheffield, ete, Clyde King, who was appointed by Roosevelt to put the Milk codes into effect, has just resigned with great haste, to avoid, it is said, any further probing into a Roosevelt scandal that would rock the country, Raise Milk Prices The Milk codes already in effect, have added from 1 to 3 cents a quart to retail price of milk in all large cities, it was charged today by Lief Dahl of the Farmers National Com- mittee of Action, which recently held a national Farm Conference at Chi- cago, including over 750 delegates. The present Roosevelt A.A.A. milk codes take a toll of millions of dol- jlars every day from the workers in the cities who buy milk, Dahl said, without giving any. assistanes, to the small, impoverished farmers, It is only the Wall Street milk monopolies and the rich farmers who get any benefit from the A.A.A, milk codes, Dahl declared.

At the presidential palace they de- manded the removal of Colonel Ful- gencio Batista, head of the army. The students carried banners read- ing: “Free the imprisoned students.” They shouted “Down with Batista!” At the palace, President Grau at- tempted to address the students from the balcony. ~ vented him ‘ :: continuing.

Wage Cut; Strikers Firm By JOE DARRELL NEW YORK.—Under pressure of the growing strike of the American | Bade Telegraphists’ Association yes- terday, N. R. A. officials of the ‘Regional Labor Board called in a committee of the strikers and offi- cials of the American Merchant Ma- rine lines and proposed that the cut jot 25 per cent be abrogated in order to end the strike, W. H. Lee, Assistant General Man~ ager of the Morgan-Roosevelt owned lines was present at the conference. The steamship officials pleaded that competition with foreign vessels necessitated the cut. Representatives of the men on strike exposed the fact that even be-| fore the 25 per cent slash wages of American operators were far below that paid on foreign ships. The committee also pointed out that the American Merchant Line Was operating on a highly profitable mail-contract subsidy from the United States government. The N. R. A. officials threatened to take the matter to Washington for “mediation.” It is clear to the strikers that only their militant strike action com- pelled the N. R. A. to recommend \the abrogation of the wage cut, and to talk about “mediation.” The strike will be conducted militantly until all demands are won. Mass picketing will be at Pier 60 this morning. pathizers are urged to aid ers’ picket. The Marine Workers’ Industrial ; Union is actively mobilizing the sea- men and longshoremen to participate in the strike. Yesterday the M. W. I. U. sent a delegation to protest to the . Federal Radio Commission against the threat that the strikers’ licenses would be revoked. The strike remains strong. Radio bulletins continue to flash the news of the strike across the globe. Some loperators are reported as bulletins in the messrooms publicizing the support given to the strike by the Marine Workers’ Industrial Union, and denouncing the refusal of the International Seamen’s Union (A. F. of L.) to aid the strikers 300 Attend 3 CWA Meets in Brooklyn Large Number of Jobs Represented NEW YORK—Three hundred 0.W.A. workers attended meetings called by the Unemployed Councils in Brooklyn last Wednesday night. At the Bronx- ville meeting at which 20 jobs were represented telegrams were sent to President Roosevelt and Daniels, state |C.W.A. head, demanding their back pay. One hundred and twelve of the "300 present joined the C.W.A. organ- ization to be formed of workers in this section. Workers at this meeting reported the death of two fellow workers who died from starvation in the three weeks period they have gone unpaid. ‘An executive committee of 25, and a subcommittee of 5 to link up the other centers of Brooklyn was elected. The other meetings were held at Boro Hall and Williamsburgh and a similar procedure was followed.

This development also demon- strates that President Roosevelt's re- cent executive order endorsing all past actions of the National Labor Board was nothing more than a demogogic gesture to further instill illusions that the National Labor Board is “mediating” in behalf of labor to “protect” it against excep- tional, misbehaving employers.

Gov't Police By MARGUERITE YOUNG (Dally Worker Washington Buream) WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.— The creation of a national po- Hce force, which would carry on red raids and other anti- labor drives with greater éffi- ciency in case of war or a tall wave of strikes, is under considera~ tion by the Roosevelt government, Using the catchword “economy,” Attorney General Homer Cummings today announced that “co-ordina~ tion” of various policing activities of the government is being “studied.” Cummings specifically mentioned the benefits that would come from co-ordinating the Bureau of Immi- gration and Naturalization of the Department of Labor. This bureau handles deportations of foreign-born labor leaders. It was this agency that sponsored raids on foreign-born workers to displace them and give their jobs to “Americans.” | Cummings said the co-ordination plan would plece directly under the Department of Justice the enforce {ment divisions of the Labor, Tree sury, Post Office, Interior and Ju tice Departments and of the Rad Commission. The Justice Depar ment, instrument of the unforgt table red raids of the Mitch Palmer era, would become headquarters of a super-pofice force which would throw the whole power of the government against strikes and any other protest ac- tivities. The proposal is in line with the strong fascist trend toward centralization of the government forces sustaining the capitalist order, Clamp Co. Union on Shipyard Workers NRA and AFL Lead- ers Broke Strike NEW YORK.—As a result of the sell-out of the A. F. of L, leaders and the strikebreaking activities of the N. R. A., the shipyard workers of Greater New York, recently out on strike for seven weeks, are now being harnessed with company unions. The Todd shipbuilding corporation had elections on Dec. 15, held in its three subsidiaries, Robbins, Tebo’s and Tietgen and Lang, as to whether the company employes wanted “the company union or not. No mention is made that the tt jority of these employes were merly scabs who helped break © strike. Nor that over 1,500 of the Todd Co. now blacklisted prevented from voting. As for few strikers who did return to they were intimidated into voting the way the company wanted them to. The shipyard workers of Greater New York have had the same thing pulled over them as was done to the Weirton steel workers, r. The shipyard workers are now in revolt in the A.
