This article reports on economic and social activities in the U.S. as well as in other countries. The Boston branch of the Workers' Defense League has issued a circular letter on the Maritime Union strike against Standard Oil Co. Despite New Jersey's law against the wearing of "foreign uniforms," Nazi Bundmen continue to parade in the same costumes. They insist that both their organization and their uniforms are "American." Allen Zoll, leader of American Patriots Inc., will have something else to explain after his trial for attempting to extort $7,500 from WMCA radio officials. Zoll said that he would help the Japanese fight "communism" for $5,000 a month. Whether his offer has been accepted is not known.
