Fight for Sacco and Vanzetti!
BY C. E. RUTHENBERC
General Secretary, Workers (communist) Party.

WILL the American workers let Sacco and Van
zetti die because they dared take part in the
struggle of the workers?
When the capitalist authorities were ready to
march Sacco and Yanzetti to the electric chair in
1921 it the mighty wave Of protest from the
workers the world over that halted the execution.
American capitalism dared not proceed with
its execution of ''class Justice because in
Rome, Berlin, Paris Buenos Aires, and the other
great capitals of the world, the workers by the
tens of thousands marched to the American em-
bassies to raise their voices in protest
~Sacco and Vanzetti are alive today because the
international labor movement took up the fight
to save them from the capitalist executioners.
The capitalist executioners who have pursued
Sacco and Vanzett thru all these years because
they were valiant and militant fighters for she
workers interests, think that the workers have
forgotten Sacco and Vanzetti, that they now

wreak the vengeance of which they were cheated
five years ago They have given few turns to the
legal machinery of the capitalist state, unwound
some red tape and declared that sacco and Van
zetti must die.
Now the workers of this country must speak.
If they declare with voice of thunder "Sacco
and Vanzetti shall not die" they snatch these
valiant working class fighters from the capitalist
executions. The capitalist executioners will not
dare act in the face of mighty protest by the
workers.
Mobilization of the workers for Sacco and Van
zetti is the great task of the day. Mass meetings,
resolutions, demonstrations must express the de
termination to save them not only from the exc
cutioners but from further capitalist persecution.
The Workers Communist Party pledges its
entire strength to the mobilization of the workers
to save Sacco and Vanzetti.

dent Coolidge.
Speaking of the suggested plan of

ior secretary yesterday to Chairman

THEOSPHISTICALS
CLAIM HINDU IS
WORLD TEACHER
az Dispatch A. p. Mirel

"A. l..
MADRAS, India, Jan. 14.-Mrs. An
ME Besant, president of the Inter-
national Theosophical society gavs
an interview in which she declared
she never had any idea of pro-
claiming Krishnamurti the Messiah"
but stated her belief that the young
Hindu is the vehicle for a world
teacher"
The 7S-year- old theosophist leader
referred to press references the
proclamation Of J. Krshnamurti
as "the second Messiah" at Adyar,
near Madras. Mrs. Besant told of
Krishnamurtis education and later
activities

SAINT. Il accepted in 1909 from their
father the guardianship of two
young brothers. My reason for this
was that l was told that the elder
brother had been selected to give
his body as a vehicle for "the
world teachers" on his approaching
coming if the lad proved worthy of
the privilege when he reached man
hood.
II believe with many early Chris
tians that a world teacher named by
them Christ assumed at stage of
the gospel story the body of a
disciple named Jesus to carry on
his earthly work at that time.
believe that a similar event is to
take place among us.
Without inflicting the reasons for
my belief, l merely add that which
may have given rise to this rumor
of a proclamation.
Krishnamurti lectured on Decem-
Der 2S, last, to a large audience and
concluded by speaking of the world
teacher in these words:
HE comes to lead us, he comes
only to those who understand, who
suffered, who were unhappy, who
We're unenlightened; he comes only
to those who want, who desire, who
long.
Here there was a slight start and
a voice of penetrating sweetness
rang out through Krishnamurtis
lips 1t said: I come for those who
