Intensify Fight To Save Victims Of Ruling Class ——By EARL BROWDBER—— The great victory for all the toiling masses, Negro and white, represented by the U. S. Supreme Court decision | to hear Haywood Patterson’s| and Clarence Norris’s appeal must serve as the impetus| for greater mass activity) than ever before in defense of the Seottsboro boys, Angelo Herndon and Tom Mooney — the four outstand-| ing victims’ of ruling class/ justiee now before the bar of | this court. This victory is one of the) clearest answers to those enemies of the working class | and its defense arm, the Tn-| ternational Labor Defense.| These enemies tried, by spreading malicious lies and) slander, to prove that the policy of the International bor Defense, the policy of mass protest and mass de-| fense, supplemented by the best available legal talent, was harmful to the interests, of the boys. It was this policy, that set millions in motion the world over, that forced this second hearing) before the United States’ Supreme Court. | The Communist Party has} been in the forefront of the fight to free the Scottsboro) boys from the beginning of, the three and a half year, fight. We call on every mem-! ber of the Communist Party, on every sympathizer of our Party, to intensify their ef- forts to secure protest reso- lutions to the U. S.

One of the most stirring events during the program will be a mass pledge to be taken by the entire audience, The Young Communisi League has particularly invited the mem- bers of the Young People’s Socialist League to attend the mass meeting in commemoration of the murdered founder of the revolutionary youth movement, Karl Liebknecht. A similar invitation has been ex- tended to the youth of the trade unions, both American Federation of Labor and Trade Union Unity League.
