CINCINNATI, Ohio, Feb. 15.— The Cincinnati Joint Board of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America has endorsed the resolu- tion proposed by the International Labor Defense condemning the bill introduced in the State Legislature by Senator Edward A. Waldvogel. The bill is designed to exclude the Communist Party from the use of school buildings in Ohio for political discussion. The Waldvogel Bill, while speci- | |not to be “led by white radicals” | fically aimed against the Commu- nist Party, provides that use of the schools shall be limited to parties polling twenty-five per cent or more of the total vote.
