OF independence and labor orgahlza-
ton is death.
In Iron Cages in Courtroom.
In 1920, the arrest of the Italian
American labor radicals was first re-
ported. In 1921 the Federated Press
Boston Bureau sent out daily reports
of the amazing trial in which the de-
PENDANTS were exhibited in iron cages
in the courtroom and all the tricks
of the prosecution against aliens and
radicals were trotted out.
Against all expectation the bureau
had to report conviction. Since then
the details of the frame-up came out
one by one. The secretly exchanged
bullets by the jury foreman, the per-
iured evidence of witnesses with pre-
vious criminal records, the refusal to
permit new evidence that would over
turn the fatal persecution. Federal
ed Press files reveal how science de-
monstrated in vain that the death bull
let did not leave the defendants gun;
how threats of further prosecution ST.
fenced the perjurers after they had
confessed. They show how labor all
over the world rushed to Sacco and
Vanzetti's aid.
A. F. of L. Resolutions.
Convention correspondents of the

ITO DEPORT ALIEN
FOR CRIME He
DID NOT COMMIT
Innocent Worker to Be
Sent Back to Italy
fspeeIaI . rhe paIIy Worksrl

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Unless
Gov. Moore Of New Jersey shall par
don him for crime which the state
of New Jersey acknowledges he never
committed, but for which it kept him
in prison seven years, Raffaele Mo

False Interpretation.
This is the demonstration Of the
majesty of American law and justice
which is to be given the victim and to
the world, according to w. w. Hus-
band, assistant secretary of labor in
charge of deportations. Morello was
recently paroled from prison when the
state authorities became convinced
that he had been convicted and SEN
fenced for the murder of his wife on
false Interpretation of his own story.
He had explained to the court inter-
prefer that his wife committed sui
eide when he was drafted to serve
in the American army in 1918; that
he came home, found her dead, and
tried to kill himself. He spoke an OBJ
scure dialect of Italian, and the court
interpreter told the court that Morello
was confessing the murder and at
tempted suicide. He learned in prison
to speak English, and then learned
what had been the cause of his con-
viction. The interpreter admitted that
he might have been mistaken in what
he told the court.
To Deport MorelIo.
Now, says Assistant Secretary Illus
band, the law is mandatory: it re-
Quires deportation of an alien who
shall, within five years after arrival,
have been sentenced to prison term
of one year or more because of convic-
tion in this country of a crime involv-
ing moral turptitude," committed
IN this country. If the man shall be
pardoned, as has happened in many
cases where guilt was established. the
United States immigration authority
at Washington has considered that
fact, as it may under another section
of the law, as removing the necessity
of deporting him.
Morello has been arrested by the
immigration agent at Philadelphia,
and is about to be given hearing on
the question, solemnly put: HAS this
alien been sentenced to a prison term
of more than one year, because of con-
viction of crime committed in this
country" Guilt or innocence will
have no hearing in the case. Only
ne whim of Gov. Moore will count.
Stricter deportation laws are being
urged.

CITIZENS OPPOSE
TRAFF|CPOWERS
Northeast Association Wants
All Rules Subject to Com
missioners' Approval.

A resolution calling for the disap-
proval Of bills pending in Congress
TO give the director of traffic arbitrary
powers. requesting that the director of
traffic be subject to the power vested
in the superintendent of police, and
asking that all future traffic regula-
tions be subject to the approval of
the Commissioners was unanimously
passed at a meeting Of the Northeast
Washington Citizens Association in
the Ludlow School last night.
The Senate bill prohibiting the Pub
lie Utilities Commission from fixing
rates Of fare for street railways in the
District of Columbia greater than a
Scent fare, or six tickets for quarter,
as stipulated in the original charter,
was approved.
Resolutions calling for the widening
Of Benning road, asking that no part
Of the money used in the purchase of
land for public buildings be taken from
the District taxpayers money and that
the proposed stadium for Washington
be constructed were also approved.
The association was most emphatic
in its antagonism to the bill propos-
ing to increase the powers of the Dis
trict Commissioners. After several in
formal talks on this matter a resOlu-
ton demanding that the Commission
ers be given no more power than they
now have was unanimously passed.
One member was particularly vitrol-
ic in his criticism of District and ma
tional affairs He said Washington is
experiencing a terrible traffic situa-
ton simply as a result of foolish regu-
lations promulgated by Mr.. Eldridges
intolerable ignorance; Representative
Iihlman is introducing bills relating to
District government simply as a step
ping stone to "a seat in the United
States Senate; Congress acted uncon-
stitutionally in granting powers to the
commissioners and the District would
be better off if Congress raised the
Commissioners salary and took away
all their power; the street railway
companies are robbing the people and
the people OF Washington should take
their baths at home rather than at
municipal bathing beaches"
