Miss Amy Schechter, daughter of the late Dr. Solomon Schechter, who, with Vera Buch, was released on bail by the Gastonia, N. C. authorities, pending the trial which attracted wide attentions on an indictment charging her, with fifteen other strike organizers and workers, with implication and conspiracy in the killing of Chief of Police O. F. Aderholt, arrived in New York.

Miss Schechter and Miss Buch addressed a workers’ meeting Monday night attended by 1,500 persons at the Central Opera House. The meeting was called under the auspices of the International Labor Defense, New York District, the Workers’ International Relief and the National Textile Workers’ Union. Communist leaders addressed the meeting.
