in various parts of the country, vio-
lent outcries emanated from the rad
icals of Europe who apparently were
particularly shocked at the conviction
of Saco and Vanzetti, well known in
Socialist circles.
Immediately a large sum of money
was raised in their behalf. Competent
legal counsel was retained. Not for
an instant since has there been a less
ening of interest on the part of the
Socialists, yet their efforts toward in
ducing the judge to reopen their case
thus far are fruitless.
The life of Judge Webster Thayer
who sat in the case, was threatened.
District Attorney Kaufman, who
prosecuted the men is now out of
office, but Harold d. Williams, his
successor, is standing boldly by the
verdict. insisting that sentence be pro-
nounced and the matter be rubbed
from the docket.
New Trial Demanded.
After many postponements and adj
journments, counsel for the convicted
men last July submitted evidence at

eminent witnesses. On these grounds
will a new trial be demanded next

English Labor Fears France.
Even the Labor party in England
is not willing to do anything that
might offend France which can easily
make trouble in the Orient, in An

Then again, France can threaten Eng
land with long range guns, submarines
and aeroplanes. The labor leaders real
ize full well that France hopes to be-
gin a new era with possession of coal,
iron and steel that can upset Eng
lands trade as much as when Krupp

the better quality of goods so SYM
pathy toward her everywhere is very
cold indeed. The government must
eventually recognize this fact. Ger
many has made no honest effort to
pay and has taken refuge in subter-
fuges. England, on the other hand,
endeavored to meet her obligations to
America before her creditors there had
their hand on her throat.
As / said before this opens the op-
portunity for action. The failure of
the government to leave open the way
for mediation was a serious mistake.
But it may yet be remedied. All that
is required is determination to make
the best of bad situation. to let
the world kbow that obligations are

opened for negotiations through which
a settlement can be brought about that
will be satisfactory to all.
