von eT a se ee BE ce NEGRO ‘CROPPER FACING ‘DEATH FOR SELF-DEFENSE AGAINST HIS LANDLORD LLD. Calls for Mass? Protests; Exposes Economic Theft ROXBORO, N.C., Dec. 29.—Charged with- murder because he shot and) killed. hisJandlord in self-defense, Emanuel Biddings, Negro tobacco sropper, faces lynching or a lynch ver- dict of death when he comes up for trial Jan, 12. ‘The. International Labor Defense, investigating the circumstances of the case, has uncoyered the full story, re- vealing the direct relation between the lynch-charge of murder and the op- pression and robbery.of the share- eroppers by the white landlords of the South, Biddings raised a crop of tobacco on shares with his landlord, Clayton —shares being officially set at 50-50. “The tobacco was placed in a barn. Biddings went to Clayton’s house to tell him he was going to take his half out so he could.sell it: Clayton being out, Clayton's wife told him to go vahead.. Biddings took his share and ‘prought it to -his“house. Soon,.Claytcn.arrived and told Bid- dings the tobacco must either be re- turned to the barn, or placed in the pack-house. They went together to the-pack-house, where they found to- bacco belonging to Clayton strewn all over the floor. When Biddings asked the landlord to have the tobacco moved so-he could bring his in, he was told the landlord would do no such thing, and ordered not to touch | it himself. Biddings returned to his house, and began to store the tobacco in his loft, his children passing it up to him. Clayton soon arrived. and knocked the tobacco out of the children’s} hands, pushing one boy against the wall. Biddings’ wife, Mrs. Katie Bid- dings, called to him: “You'd becter come downstairs! Mr. Clayton is fighting with the children.” As soon as Biddings came down- stairs and spoke to him, Clayton called to his wife: “I want you to come and hear the last words I am going to tell this god-damned nigger before I blow his brains oni.” At the same time he put his hands into his pockets as though to draw a gun. In self-defense, Biddings took down the shot-gun that was just over his head as he stood-inside the doorway, and shot down. his landlord. Lynch sentiment among the land- lords of Person County, where Rox- boro is situated, is running high, the ILD, reports. The case involves di- rectly. the right of croppers to sell their produce, whether tobacco or cotton. By denying this right, the white Southern landlords keep the :Negro and white ..share-croppers working for them in perpetual debt- slavery. The LL.D. is raising mass protest among share-croppers, poor farmers and city workers, demanding the im- mediate release of Biddings; quash~ ing of the indictment against him on the ground of unconstitutional bar- ring of Negroes from the Grand Jury; change of venue from Person County to the industrial city of Durham, N. C.; exclusion of landlords and in- clusion of white and Negro share- croppers in the trial jury. Protests should be sent to the county court at Roxboro, N.

UNEMPLOYED 15¢, Girl, 13, Admits Killing Child | DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 38, 1938 VET By H. E. BRIGGS GREETINGS FOR THE NEW YEAR! I am not going to say Happy New Year because from this distance it doesn’t look as though it would be a particu'arly happy one for the vet-| erans. That is, if we depend on our) friends. Ho! ever, We can PPy ng up our acreg clenching our fists and organiz- ing. | There are several obstacles in our way. The main one as we all know is the National Economy League, And now there is a new one on the horizon, | it 1s called Citizens Budset Commis- | Sion. These birds are friends of th newly elected Major LaGuardia. They aim to do for New York what the N.EL, has already done for the vet- erans throughout the United States. They are ig ‘e the Albany Legislature with the purpose of re- moving the two N. Y. State Relief Laws; Article 14, 8 which s: all New York vet ed to cash relief, and shall not be paur ed; Section 119 which Says, New York cash fund for relief of vete! dependents coming under Secti The cther is Chapter 325, New York State Veteran Laws, which provides $30 a month to World War veterans with a ten per cent disability or over, $10 a month for dependent widows or wives and $5 for children or each other devendent. This is to be paid to all those not receiving $30 a month from the Federal government. It is not to exceed $60 a month or $250 a year. They are going to try to remove these laws which have never been ap- Plied if we veterans sit on our hands and do nothing about it. But there is one organization that is doing some- thing about it. The Workers Ex-Serv- jicemeon’s League, as always in the fore- front of the veteran struggles is car- Tying on a united front of all to pre- vent the cutting down of state and local veterans relief and to demand an increase and enforcement of the laws now in existence. There are to be several Post rallies next week: Post No. 204, No. 35, No. 201, No, 165, No. 205, and No. 75 are already organizing local rallies with the intent of electing two delegates from each Post to go to Albany. Coupled with this, there will be mass | borough rallies, also rallies in Mineola, | Great Neck, Glen Cove and Jamaica. | Delegates elected at these rallies will be in Albany early in January to see that the Veteran Relief Laws are not removed. Following this, there will be @ mass veteran march on the State Capitol, demanding adequate veteran relief. All veterans who want to be in- sured against starvation this winter, must get behind this united front. Watch for further details in the press. See sere A Salute for Comrade Runge Alfred Runge, Spanish War Vet- eran and militant member of the W.ES.L., and Henry Shephard, Negro member of the T.U.U.C., representing the American League Against War and Fascism on the delegation or- ganized by. the Anti-Imperialist League, have just been released from the dungeons of Principe Fortress, Cuba. It was ‘not the first visit of Runge to Cuba. He was at the Battle of Santiago in the days when US. imperialism was first rearing its head in Cuba. Comrades Runge and Sheph- ard will receive a rousing welcome when they return to the States. A house party will be given in honor of Comrade Runge by the Hushka- Carlson Post No. 35, W.E.S.L., at 1786 Vyse Avenue, Bronx, Apartment 4-E, January 13, 1934. Come and hear him describe his expriences. Pop Goes the W.E.S.L. We have just received thru one of the boys in the National Office a most encourazing letter from May Lee and husband. Working egainst terrific odds, they are establishing posts of the W.ES.L. in and around Tampa, Fla. They have high praise for the local I.L.D., which is cooperating 100 per cent. They recently lined up a Negro post of the American Legion, When the American Legion leader- ship refused to let this Post send dele~ gates to a recent American Legion conyention in Cuba, they dropped the idea of building an American Legion Jim-Crow Post and decided to tranfer into a W.E.S.L. Post. We veterans are sure grateful to the LL.D., they are fighting. comrades and staunch de- fenders of all the workers and vet- erans. Besides this, they were the first mass organization to recognize the importance of the veterans move- ment, If the other mass organiza- tions would realize that the W.E.S.L, is a mass organization and cooperate as well, it would not be long before the veterans would be one of the most powerful allies of the workers. It is up to the working class organiza- tions to support the veterans, Phe hase Warning to All Vets All those suffering reductions or discontinuance of Pension, Compen- sation or Retirement Pay under “Rosie’s” New (dirty) Deal take note. The local Review Boards have been discontinued and appeal for review of your case must be filed in Wash- ington. As you probably know, there is to be a final Board of Appeals set up in Washington. Those sitting on this’ Board have been chosen by Roosevelt and will, of course, not rep- resent the rank and file. Since the American Legion, V.F.W. and D.A.V. are not going to do anything about Repealing the Economy Act and re- storing compensation, there. remains but one thing: to do, The rank and file must see to it that they are rep- resented, We have the right to choose our own representative. And in that case it means choosing the Workers Ex-Servicemen’s League, for this is the only veterans’ organizations that truly represents the rank and file. There will be a representative of the W.E.S.L. in Washington. All veterans with cases which they want honestly represented should get in touch with the National Office of the W.ES.L., Ki A pacha Room 523, New York City shall provide a} By I. AMTER On March 6, 1930, the Communist Party launched the campaign for unemployment and social insurance. At that time the Communist Party declared that this was only the beginning of a long crisis—that this was not an ordinary cyclical crisis, but was a basic crisis of the system under which we live. From that time the Communist Porty has been in the lead, not only analyzing the situation, but as the fighter for the interest of the unemployed and employed workers, suffering from the crisis, Communists Lead Struggle We raised the issue of unemploy- ment and social insurance. We led in the formation of militant Un- employed Councils. The Commu- |nists have been in the forefront fighting for relief, against evictions, against discrimination of Negroes. The Communists have led in the local, county and state hunger marches, which have occurred in all parts of the country. It was the Communist Party which gave full support to the national hunger marches that stirred the country and made the bosses and the gov- ernment understand that the un- employed in this country refused to starve. These marches brought results! They were instrumental in devel- oping marches of farmers and the veterans. Only Party Fighting N. R. A. It is the unity that the Commu- nist Party is building in the strug- gle of employed and unemployed, farmers, Negroes, and veterans that the bosses fear. Join the Party That Leads in the Struggle For Jobless Insurance ; hours, union recognition and work- From the very beginning only) the Communist Party exposed and| fought against the N. R. A. as an} instrument of capitalism to lower | the living standards of the masses and increas} the profits of the bosses at the expense of the workers and farmers. The Communist Party ex- posed and branded the strikebreak- ing measures of the Roosevelt re- gime as advancing fascism. While the Socialist leaders like Norman Thomas and Morris Hill-| quit were welcoming the N. R. A.,| the Communist Party aroused the workers to strike struggles and led the most militant strikes in the country for higher wages, shorter ers’ rights. It is the Communists and real revolutionary workers who not only advocate but fight for the united front of all workers against the| N. R. A, for relief, for workers’ | rights, for the rights of the Negro people, for real unemployment in- surance, Does this not prove that the | Communist Party is the real and only workingclass party? Does this not prove that the Communist pro- gram is the workingzlass program? Is it not your duty, therefore, as workers to join the Communist Party and put an end to the system of hunger, misery, discrimination and war? You have shown your fighting spirit in many struggles and dem- onstrations. You have shown your class solidarity. Take the next step. Join the Communist Party—your Party, the Party of the working- class, CWA Workers of | South Demonstrate For Wage Checks 3,500 in Chattanooga Protest; Organize in Dayton CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Dec. 29,— While State C.W.A. officials were here conferring over the protest of |C.W.A, workers in Dayton, Tennessee against discrimination in giving out jobs, it was recalled that the protest of the C.W.A. workers of Dayton was preceeded by spontaneous demonstra~ tions of 3,500 C.W.A. workers in Chat- tanooga. The C.W.A, workers of Dayton are standing firm in their refusal to ac- cept back into Rhea County, J. Miser and his wife who had been run out of the county by the C.W.A. workers. The Dayton workers met in the court house, elected a com- mitttee, and asked that this commit- tee shall replace the C.W.A. com- mittee set up by the state C.W.A. and now functioning in Rhea County. Dayton Workers Organize George Hawkins, a plasterer, was elected secretary of the Workmen’s Association in Dayton, it is reported here. Hawkins said that he has been out of work for a year and has re- ceived no relief. His children are home without stockings, or school books, and his wife, a stenographer, is also jobless. At the same time Miser and his wife, the latter the C.W.A. head for the county, gave the wife of James Frazier, the biggest landowner in the county, a C.W.A. |job “sewing,” and gave other poli- ticians and rich people jobs. 3500 Demonstrate in Chattanooga In Chattanooga, when the pay checks were given out on Dec, 5, the 3500 C.W.A. workers refused to leave when told to go back to their jobs and wait for their pay. Police were called but the workers refused to go and were finally paid, some of them as late as 11 o'clock at night, The State Relief Administrator -Evan NEW YORK.—Carpenters and me- chanics with their own tools, em- ployed at Bear Mountain as skilled workers, are being paid wages of un- skilled workers, although they are working at their trade. When the Bear Mountain workers complained about the low rates of pay, the foreman was instructed to pick out about 15 carpenters who will receive 90 cents an hour, the rest were made to re-register as unskilled laborers under threats of losing their Jobs. On , during a snowstorm, the men weer forced to make the trip to Bear Mountain. On their ar- rival they were not put to work, but they were forced to stand in the freezing snowstorm for five hours be- fore the trip back to New York. Many of the men had no overcoats, but were dressed in the thin cotton over- alls ‘that they ordinarily wear to work. On their arrival back in New York, the workers were forced to again reg- ister as unskilled workers at 23rd St. a point remote from the place where they left the train. They were told that if they did not register as laborers they would not be permitted to work during the month of January. On Wednesday, when the men ar- rived at Bear Mountain, they were herded into an open shed, and told to again register as laborers, Those who protested that they should be given jobs as skilled workers were told that they must accept jobs as Shane Those who refused were M. | of $18 a week in the future. Cleveland Workers On C.W.A.

The Relief Workers Union is call- ing a series of meetings in workers’ neighborhoods in order to crystalize the mass sentiment for the demands of the C.W.A. workers into mass or- ganization and militant struggle to achieve them, Evans spoke to the C.W.A. workers | 7 urging them to go, but they howled him down, Evans secretly removed the checks | from the relief headquarters at 1211 Chestnut St., via the back door, to the Purse Building, blocking traffic, and the police were called. The checks were finally paid after the workers refused several times to go home. They demanded immediate Skilled Workers on CWA Job at Bear Mt.

J. Merril, worker elected from the C.W.A. job where he is employed, was elected chairman; oung, a Negro worker represent- ing the Small Home and Land Own- ers, was elected vice-chairman. A. Onda, secretary of the Unemployed Councils, gave a detailed report. Twenty-seven delegates were elected to go to Washington on Jan. 13.
