Tortured In Room, Is Released Beaten by Dicks Who Slugged and Burned Patsy Augustine NEW YORK.—Fiendish methods of torture equalled only in Hitler's fascist dungeons were practiced on Jack Schneider, organizer of the Pur Workers Industrial Union, after he was kidnapped yesterday in the fur market and taken to the Eighth Street, Coney Island Police Station by Detectives Francis Watterson and William Donnell. Schneider reports that he was beaten and slugged all over the body until he was unconscious by Watterson and Donnell in an at- tempt to make him confess that he had assaulted a fur foreman named Gelman. Watterson and Donnell a the game two detectives who tortured Patsy Augustine, leader of the Nathan’s Famous strike, some weeks ago by beating him over the head pulling out his hair and body with burning cig: Matches. Schneider told the Daily Worker that he was walking through the fur market yesterday when he was suddenly seized by the two detec- tives, after being pointed out by two proféssional stool - pigeons, Imown as Goldverg and Newman. He was hustled off to the Coney | Island Police Station on Eighth St. and Surf Ave Beaten In Room Schneider says that he was taken to a room where he was punched @nd beaten until he lost conscious- ness. He was then taken before Gelman, who said he could not identify Schneider as the man who had assaulted him. Following this Schneider was taken in a weakened condition to a Coney Island Court and was released. The cruel beating of Schneider yesterday climaxes a long campaign of terror and intimidation that has been carried out against him by the local police department. It is part of the LaGuardia-O’Ryan campaign of terror against the workers of New York. To Protest To Mayor Irying Potash, secretary of the Needie Trades Workers Industrial Union, said that the union would | send a delegation to Mayor La- Guardia to protest against the fiendish torture of Schneider. “We are not going to let the detectives and LaGwardia get away with this stuff,” Potash told the Daily Worker yesterday. “We will unite the forces of our union with all workers and workers’ or- ganizations who are victims of this new brutal wave of terror. We will drive out of office all those who are guilty of these at- tacks. The responsibility for this brutality lays at the door of Mayor LaGuardia.” The Daily Worker demands that such brutal actions against workers and leaders of workers’ organiza- tions be stopped at once. The Daily Worker calls on all workers, on all workers’ otganiza- tions, to protest against the kid- napping and beating of Schneider. Join with the workets of the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union in their protest to the Mayor. Demand that LaGuardia and O’Ryan get out of office.

Unions To Support Hat Strike Conference Tomorrow To Raise Funds for Strike Relief | NEW YORK. — While the hat manufacturers continued to reiter- ate their refusal to concede to the demands of the striking hatters, | preparations for the strike relief conference which will be held to- motrow night at Beethoven Hall) were being intensified. Committee of the strikers were visiting the A. F. of L. locals, inde- pendent unions and other labor or- ganizations asking that delegates that funds be raised to swell the strikers’ war chest. Unions of the Trade Union Unity League have announced that they will send delegates to the confer- ence with money for strike relief. All unions in the city are urged by the Hatters’ Strike Committee | to see to it that they are represented in Beethoven Hall Thursday night. Unions not meeting before the con- ference have been asked to send local officers as delegates. The second conference between the representatives of the hatters Monday. The bosses offered to give the strikers a 15 cent increase on | @ dozen finished hats, The workers are demanding 75 cents. The manu- facturers also promised to improve the working conditions in the shops. Workers laughed at the offer of a 15 cent increase and ridiculed the promise of better conditions, stating that this protiise was made many times and was never lived up to. Other demands refused by the an increase in pay for hat flanging | and the demand for increases for| women trimmers. Late in the day| manufacturers were meeting with | representatives of the trimmers, All negotiations with the bosses will be reported at a meeting of| strikers of Local 8 of the United Hatters, which will be held Thurs- | day afternoon immediately preced- ing the relief conference, NY.

Fascist Collapse Near, Says Pravda. (Continued from Page 1) of mililons. German imperialism is preparing for foreign political ad-| ventures. It alteady ca:ties on @ strenuous and dangerous trade war.| The massés have already Scen re- duced to a hungry existence as dur-| ing the war blockade in order to create for the Krupps, the Thys-) sens, the stock exchange and the| banks maneuvering funds. The main jdea of the whole program of capital at the present program essentially led to this further plunder. The} Jeconomic life in Germany of late | months became still more acute. “The general worsening of the in- ternal and international condition of the fascist dictatorship resulted in the sharp struggle within its |own ranks. Fermentation, ever | stronger and deeper, is permeating |the ranks of the Storm Trcopers land is becoming still more dan- gerous, “Hitler “managed to isolate Reehm’s group and exterminate it physically. But the millions of de- |ceived Storm Troopers remain. | These cannot be ‘liquidated’; but to | deceive them is becoming harder. | “Therefore, the crack in the fa-) leade of the dictatorship, splitting \itself off from its mass base, teems| | with all sorts of surprises. The sit- | uation in Germany shows that it is | becoming ever harder for the fascist dictatorship to prevent a union be-| tween the working masses resisting the plunderous program of finance capital and the fermentation within |the masses of the pétty-bourgedisie. | Fascism has shown itself to be the | meanest enemy of the petty bour- geois masses, whose aspirations it utilized to the limit for the struggle against the revolutionary prole-| tariat. The petty-bourgeois masses| have the opportunity to convince themselves that even for them there is no other way out but to struggle shoulder to shoulder with the p:ble- tariat under the leadership of the Communist Party against capitalist society and its fascist gendarmes. The Military Arm “Such a power of monopolist cap- ital as the Reichswehr (German army) is becoming the master of the situation in Germany. The Reischwehr is not only an army in the narrow sense of the word; it is the most tested armed sup- port of the ruling classes, their political staff and military instru- ment. It is not acidental that this instrument is brought into action at the moment when the repression of the leadership of the Storm Troopers became necessary. “The mass basis of fascism has been seriously shaken. The old forms of demagogy have proved useless. But one more test is fac- ing fascism. Germany is approach- ing inflation, and this concomitant ruination, not only of the prole- | tariat, but also of the widest layers of the petty-bourgeois. “It is not excluded, therefore, that the fascist dictatorship will again apply social demagogy of another kind aimed at cheoking the masses with promises resting of the Reisch- swehr bayonets. Worsening Economic Situation “The economic situation in Ger- many is becoming worse, and this in the last analysis predetermines the hastening of the passage-of the toilers from as yet passive forms of resistancé against the policy of rob- bery and oppression to active mass struggles. “German fascism will still maneu- |ver, resting itself on the tested weapon of attempting to deceive the mases. But this at the same time will increase the discontent and) | fluctuations among the deceived | | masses, reducing the maneuvering | capacity and contracting the basis) |of the dictatorship. “The final collapse of the Ger- man bourgeoisie under fie blows of the coming rise of the revolu- tionary masses is quite near,” | | ers with A ruling that “employers | telegrams, protesting the arbitrary |centrating on a “Red Scare,” The NBW YORK.—While the patriotic otganizations and the boss political ties wil celebrate Independence y a barrage of demagogic showing the achievements nerican Revolution of 1776, only party that carries the tra- ditions of the Declaration of Inde- pendence under present conditions in the United States, the Commu- nist Party, will also hold a celebra- tion. | This celebration will be the An- nual Red Picnic of the New York District, which this year will take place at North Beach Picnic Park, Astoria, L. I. Many mass organizations, in- ‘cluding the Trade Union Unity Council, have mobilized their entire membership to attend this picnic. | An interesting pfogram of music, | drama and sports has been prepared in addition to dancing that will take place from 2 p. m. to 11 p. m. Ad- mission will be 25 cents. North Beach Picnic Park can be reached by I. R. T. East or West Side subways (changing at Grand | Central or Times Square) to Astoria, L. I., Second Ave. “L” changing at 57 St., to Astoria, L. I, or B. M. T. subway to Ditmars Ave., Astoria. Buses will run all day long from the subway station to the park. West Coast Bosses (Continued from Page 1) | in the maritime trades are under no legal compulsion to organize for) collective bargaining with their) striking workers.” In other words the Roosevelt ad- | ministration has ruled that the em- ployers do not have to recoghize the unions or even negotiate with their} representatives. The federal gov- ernment therefore has stepped in| with an open strike-breaking de-| cision. Scab Board The “Labor Relations” Board, ap-| pointed by Roosevelt and headed by | Archbishop Hanha has tried from} the beginning to split the ranks of the strikers—to isolate the long- shoremen and drive them back to work without a settlement with the other nine unions on strike in sup- port of the longshoremen and for their own wage and recognition de- mands. The Industrial Association, the strike-breaking organization of the San Francisco waterfront employ- ers, has delivered an ultimatum — the terms of which are unmistakable to any one familiar with the strike) tactics of American employers and with the bloody history of labor struggles on the Pacific Coast. The Industrial Association announces it- self as the guardian of the streets of San Francisco, and its harbor, in the interests of “the people.” Two) weeks ago, the Industrial Associa- tion states in its recent letter to| Mayor Rossi and Chief of Police} Quinn, it accepted the responsibit- | ity to restore traffic.” Its ulti- matum states: “We are ... . commencing opera- tions to restore the streets of San Francisco to its citizens, confident that the Police Depaxtment will afford full protection for the peaceful use thereof by unarmed drivers.” “The Association takes the stand the harbor belongs to the people and is, therefore, to be construed the same as olty streets as traffic arteries.” Behind these elaborate legal fic- tions there are the armed forces of the city ahd state, the fascist bands and the private armies of the em- ployers. : The employers and their govern- ment are out to crush by maiming and murdey, by a series of raids and mass arrests, the militant labor movement that has developed dur- ing the strike. They have already struck at the Communist Party, whose members are active in the strike and its relief and defense or- ganizations, and whose Pacific Coast paper, the Western Worker, is the official organ of the united front strike committee. Try Gangsterism Gangster elements organized by American Legion leaders have smashed the windows of the offices of the Western Worker and the In- ternational Labor Defense. Theve have been many atrests, especially of members of the Marine Workers Industrial Union, which is in the leadership of the seamen’s section of the strike. Judge Steiger has ordered the arzest of all signers of arrests. In Seattle armed guards hired by the Standard Oil Company have fired on strikets, killing one. A member of the M. W. I. U. and his wife, who was cooking for the strikers, have been given 60- and 30-day sentences for “having clubs in their house.” George P. West, writing from San Francisco to the New York Times for July 1, said: “when President Roosevelt ap- pointed his National Longshore- men’s Board . . . the Industrial Association already had imported strikebreakers and armed guards, hired non-union trucks, leased warehouses and reached an un- derstanding with Acting Governer Merriam that the National Guard would be available if needed.” They were and are ready for the use of civil war methods against the workers. “ “Red Seare” The Pacific Coast papérs, espe- cially the California press, is con- Prepare Terrorism employers are furious because as a result of the activity of the Com- munist Party, coupled with the strong revolutionary traditions of the Pacific Coast workers in the marine and lumber industries, the boss-controlled leadership like that | of Joseph P. Ryan, head of the In-| ternational Longshoremen’s Asso- | ciation—who has refused to call out | the Atlantic Coast men in support | of the strike—like that of Andrew) Furuseth, the viciously senile head | of the International Seamen’s| Union, which he has reduced to a! skeleton, and others, has been re-| Pudiated. Their efforts to settle the | strike on a basis favorable to the| aasdane have been defeated 20/ The leadership of the strike in| California is in the hands of & rank and file committee of 50 elected from ten unions. In the and Washington ports similar com- mittees have been set up. Because of the factors mentioned the strike is the best organized and most conscious of the series of great struggles that have swept through this country during the past year. West, who for years has posed as a liberal, writes in a bitterly hostile tone: “For six weeks negotiations be- tween shipowners and longshore- men failed as power in the union shifted steadily toward the left and finally lodged in a Commit- tee of Fifty composed of five dele- gates from ten different unions, including two shoreside unions and marine unions... all ten had | voted not to go back to work until | a joint settlement was reached | . +. 80 that the issue shifted from one invoiving only the employing stevedores and their employes to | one that involved the entire op- eration of shipping.” Instead of being faced with a few thousand longshoremen and the necessity of merely reaching an agreement with the Tammany Hall politician Ryan, the employers are faced with a general strike of ma~ rine transport workers! (To be continued) - Inquiry Demands Thaelmann Liberty (Continued from Page 1) such vague grounds can_ possibly satisfy the demands for justice in accordance with established prac- tices in the civilized world.” The Commission is composed of Clarence* Darrow, Senator Costigan, Dudley Field Malone, L. Elliott, George Z. Medalie, George Gordon Battle, Roger Baldwin and Raymond Wise. The report further stated: This statement was issued by the Commission after hearing testimony for two days by German refugees and others relating to conditions in Germany today. Fear that Ernst Thaelmann had been murderéd in the recent wave of terror by Hitler against his own storm troop leaders, was expressed yesterday at the hearing by Anna Schultz, wife of the murdered John Scheer, member of the Central Ex- ecutive Committee of the German Communist Party. She said that a cable from Stockholm had requested information as to the truth of rumors of Thaelmann’s execution. Anna Schultz gave a clear state- ment of what the German Com- munist Party stands for, pointing out that the German Communist Party is against all individual viol- ence and terror. It is for a govern- ment of workers and peasants, & government based on the true demo- ped of the proletarian dictator- ship. Dr. Kurt Rosenfeld, testified again yesterday and said: “The statement of the German Officials that the limit Thaelmann can possibly get is 10 years, is not to be believed. There is no reason to expéct clemency while there is every reason to be- lieve that Thaelmann is in extreme danger of déath. Persecute Kids A seven year Old Jewish school boy, who gave his name as Franz For Slaughter (Continued from Page 1) ishment. This was taken as an indication that the first great batch of summary executions was over, and that those who were | marked for killing would be slaugh- | |tered by the new terrorist courts | which recently opened. The Cabinet, in further slicing the Storm Troopers and reducing their importance in the scheme of the fascist dictatorship, annulled the law providing that the chief of the Storm Troops should be a mem- ber of the Cabinet. Ernst Roehm was a member of the Cabinet with- out portfolio. The Reichswehr (German Army) is now the chief force upholding the fascist dictatorship with its bay- onets in the interest of finance cap- ital, the rich industrialists and Jandowners. Guard Von Papen Early yesterday 60 Schutestaffel, the picked murder gangs of thé Hitler regime, marched into von Papen’s office with steel helmets and sidearms. No official list of the number executed has been issued by the fascist government, but various of its officials claim not more than 60 were situghtered, while the ma-— jority of capitalist correspondents put the number at around 200. Only the names of the most out- standing Storm Troop leaders, and others associated with them, have been mentioned in the news. Scores of lower officers were slaughtered without any trouble taken to mention the fact. Meanwhile, in France, Marshal Petain, head of the French Army, is utilizing the German events to increasé the concentration of French armed forces on the Ger- man border. He also called for elimination of the one year com- pulsory service law in favor of a longer term of military service, The Hitler government has giv- en permission to 19 Jewish textile manufacturers to move their fac- tories to England. The former crown prince was reported to have flown to Hol- Jand, and has ‘joined the Kaiser at Doorn. In England and the United States, particularly, the capitalist. | press is beginning a tirade in sup- port of Hitler’s latest bloody deeds, calling it a “purging” of the worst | elements of fascism, and praising | the “courage” of the murderous bands of butchers in Germany.

The strike, led by the Agricultural Union (Trade Union Unity League), is of national importance since it involves a struggle against oné of the largest farm landlord-employers in the east. Seabrook is attempting to round up vigilante groups for terrorism against the union organizers. Seabrook has imported thugs led by @ gangster, Saunders, who have attacked men and women pickets. ‘The homes of the strikers, owned by Seabrook, were set apart with barbed wire charged with electricity.
