Longshoremen Remain Firm SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.— Striking longshoremen have defi- mitely refused to return to work until all other maritime workers have negotiated the question of set- tlement. Thus the attempt of the N. R. A. to divide the longshoremen from the seamen, masters, mates, pilots, engineers. cooks and stewards failed. The men on the docks de- mand that the demands of the men | on the ships be met before the; strike is ended. A better act of solidariiy has never been performed in the history } of American Labor than the estab- lishment of this strong brotherly unity between the longshoremen and seamen. Paced with a point blank refusal of the dockers to take to the docks | after they had voted for the -arbi- tration clause, the federal mediators moved hurriedly to get a poll of the | seamen on the question of represen- tation.

He knows that Vigilantes are riding hard trying to tamp out Communism.” this slogan they are smashing all economic organizations, militant trade unions, etc, But Herndon knows this is impossible, as he wrote in the May 22 issue of the New Masses, “Communism is embodied in the very souls of all working men. It cannot be destroyed. All at- tempts to do so only serve to accelerate its growth, Commu- nism is not something foreign to ‘ican workers. We feel the = pains of exploitation in our sweat shops, on the bread lines, and behind the grim and dismal walls of stinking capitalist hell holes. Everyone who fighis against our chains of slavery is bound to help build a society of workers. We can Ieok to the mili- tant struggles of the Southern workers and see that Communism is inevitably destined to be tri- umphant throughout. the whole country, as well as the entire world.” His spirit cannot be broken, but the Southern ruling class aims to break him physically on the chain |gang. The working class which is | fighting so valiantly today, and its | sympathizers from the ranks of the iddle class, the intellectuals, stu- dents, etc., will not, dare not, allow Herndon to be murdered. He, along with the Scottsboro boys, is a symbol of the oppression of twelve million Negroes. in Amer- lica. They are symbols also of the | millions more of enchained prole- |letarians in this country. The fight to free them is the fight against the fascist terrorism en- dorsed by Hugh. Johnson and the |Government. The: illegalization of the Communist Party, the trade unions, the -militant organizations has an inevitable corollary: the smashing of all honest groups of intellectuals, the barring of all out- spoken criticism to the Government. The $15,000 bail.for Herndon must be raised. Funds to save the Scottsboro boys must be raised. The editors of the New Masses call upon all their yeaders, all in- tellectuals, all cultural groups, to free Herndon and the Scottsboro Boys.

Austrian Nazis Fail’ In Second Putsch: (Continued Zon Page 1) government in connection with the Nazi forces in Austria. Fighting in Austria The fighting was most severe in the province of Syria, where the Heimwehr had opened up a bom- bardment on several cities in an attempt to dislodge the Nazis. Hundreds of Nazis are fleeing the Jugoslavian border where they are being placed in concentration camps. In Vienna a special fascist guard of 12,000 police, mostly newly re- cruited, was mobilized by the von Starhemberg government, while most of the troops were sent out to the province of Styria and Carin- thia. Heavy artillery fire in the village of Kapfenberg in eastern Styria is reported to have resulted in the death of a number of men, and children. Eight of the Nazis implicated in the assassination of Dollfuss were reported to have been executed, and more than 140 more are being court-martialed, The Nazis in their retreating battles are blowing up bridges and buildings, fighting bitterly for every position. Hitler in Desperate Plight In Germany, Hitler, caught in a desperate plight by his provoked butchery in Vienna and throughout Austria, strove to cast off blame by taking action against the leaders of the Austrian Nazis, The feelings now between those who were organ- ized, armed and prepared by Hit- ler for an invasion of Austria to aid their harrassed co-horts is ex- tremely bitter. Hitler has ap- pointed Vice-Chancellor Franz von Papen, whom he recently held un- der arrest during the wholesale slaughter of the Nazis, as tempo- rary envoy to Austria, Von Papen is a prominent Catholic, and Hitler hopes that sprinkling of some holy water over the blood and ashes of the Austrian civil war might ap- pease the situation and hide the bloody role of the Fascist govern- ments everywhere, Panic is sweeping all of Austria, as civil war rages throughout the country, and armies march helter- skelter. The whole Austrian border is sur- rounded by a ring of armies, bomb- ing planes, artilery, awaiting the erder to march which would plunge the world intc the bloodiest slaugh- ter of all history. Rumanian Workers Make Protest Against Deportation Threats NEW YORK. — The Roumanian Workers Club has addressed to Secretary of Labor Francis Perkins a resolution of protest against the threatened wave of deportations growing out of the San Francisco general strike and struggles in other parts of the country. The resolution says that “since the Bill of Rights as to freedom of press, freedom of assembly and the right to strike have been nullified by you, we resolve to protest your actions and to pieage support of these strikers.” Copies of the pro- test were also sent to Mayor Rossi of San Francisco and to Governor Merriam of California, union and wage increases. Brass Brothers employes decided to give one day’s pay each to a strike fund. They say they will strike if the boss refuses to sign an agreement with the union.
