DEATH IS THE ULTIMATE REPRESSION. Many have died since the current phase of the struggle began. The names of some of them follow.

The list is limited. It does not attempt to include the hundreds of blacks killed in ghetto uprisings, nor those additional thousands killed regularly by police In acts of so-called justifiable jomlcide, nor the thousands of people who die needlessly of many causes in this violent anti-human society. In addition, this is a preliminary list, admittedly in• complete, put together an the basis of available information.

We encourage you to do research in you own local area to determine the names which should be on this list and correct our mistakes. Send information to the Conspiracy, 28 E. Jackson, Chicago, 111., 60604.
