Blocks Unity | NEW YORK.—The National Stu- dent League third annual convention | just corapleted at Howard Univer- | sity, Washington, was attended by 237 delegates from 14 states. The delegates represented organizations | and student groups in 44 colleges and tes high schools from Yale to the University of Southern California, In contrast to this, the conven- tion of the student group of the Socialist organization, meeting in the Friends Meeting House in Washington, a smail hall, had only about 40 delegates in all and about 30 visitors at the opening session | Thursday night. The N. S. L. convention advanced at least two steps forward. First, in cementing the friendship, especially on 2 social basis, of the Negro stu- dents of Howard with the white stu- dents and presenting the N. S. L. program of militant struggle against discrimination and Jim-Crowism in the most favorable light to the How- ard students and the Negro students throughout the country in particular. Second, in creating a desire for stu- | dent unity in the League for In- dustrial Democracy as a result of numerous calls for unity both by words and actions by the N. S. L. since its organization. Tue L. I. D. convention is, at the present writing, split about 40 per cent for uniting both organizations on a basis of a | militant program of action such as \the N. S. L’s and 60 per cent against.

The meeting called by the Zimme: roaded through a resolution which, while pretending to oppose overtime allowed to the bosses by the N. R. A and the Joint Board, offered no con- crete program of action against the violations of the code and the agree- ment in the shops. The left wing resolution was suppressed by bull- dozing tactics, although the majority of those present favored it. In a statement yesterday, the left wing opposition scored the Zimmer- man tactics and demanded that rep- resentatives of labor withdraw from the code authority or demand equal representation. Otherwise the left wing group declares the presence of & small committee representing labor serves only to put labor’s stamp of approval on every action of the N. R. A. code authority against the workers, “The manner in which the press reported the meeting indicates that in no quarter was the action of the Zimmerman administration taken} seriously, but as mere stage play,” declares the Left Wing group. “The ‘Forward,’ Socialist daily, said that the action of the Executive Board took the wind out of the sails of the Left Wing opposition by calling the meeting. This merely *cor- roborates our statement that Zim- merman’s intention is to divert the dressmakers from the real struggle against wage cuts.” ‘The Left Wing opposition calls on all dressmakers to moboilize in every shop to resist the wage cuts and support the policy as outlined in the resolution of the Left Wing, which Zimmerman feared to bring before the meeting for a vote. Tenn. Magistrate, Postmaster Named As Cheek Lynchers NEW YORK.—Executive investiga- tion and appointment of a special prosecutor to prosecute the lynchers of Cordie Cheek, young Tennessee Negro, was urged upon Gov.

L. convention adopte q| that Cheek was a victim of a boy- and-girl conspiracy, the facts of which were kept from the grand jury for fear the 11-year old girl involved would tell the truth and in order that Cheek would be released into the hands of a lawless mob. “We are informed that automobiles belonging to Postmaster Robert Han- cock of Glendale and Magistrate C. H. Denton of Maury County were in the lynching party. These facts alone warrant an investigation by you and appointment of a special prosecutor.” Baldwin's telegram was sent follow- ing a first-hand investigation of the situation by Tennessee representa- tives of the A.C.L.U.
