RUTHENBERG IS FREED IN TIME TO SPEAK IN N.Y.
Appears on Program at Big Lenin Memorial
(Special to The Daily Worker)
NEW YORK CITY, Jan. 30.—
C. E. Ruthenberg, national executive secretary of the Workers Party, has just been released from prison at Jackson, Mich., under bail of $7,500.
His release comes just in time for him to address the gigantic demonstration which has been arranged for the first anniversary of the death of Nicolai Lenin Sunday, Feb. 1, at 2 p. m., at Madison Square Garden.
List of Other Speakers.
Besides C. E. Ruthenberg, Comrades Charles Kreabain and Ben Gitlow who are awaiting the sentence of the capitalist courts, will also speak at the Lenin meeting. Comrade M. J. Olgin who has recently returned from Russia will be one of the speakers.
The other speakers will be Jack Stachel of the Young Workers' League, K. Radzi, in Russian, and an Oriental speaker, Y. Nishimura.
This is not the first time that Ruthenberg has spoken in Madison Square Garden before masses of New York workers. It will be remembered that he was the principal speaker on the occasion of the wonderful demonstration given Comrade Martens, the first envoy from Soviet Russia to America. Then again last year the record-breaking meeting on the occasion of the death of Lenin. This year again his voice will resound thru the old rafters of the historic Garden.
Tickets Going Fast.
In addition to the speakers, there will be a splendid musical program with the Freiheit Chorus with hundreds of well-trained voices under the direction of Lazar Weiner, symphony orchestra of 100, and Mme. Nina Gussieva, dramatic soprano who will render fine vocal selections at the Garden.
It is reported that tickets are going fast. It is advisable that all those who want to be assured of getting into the Garden get their tickets in advance.
