first homer, then walked Meusel
Gehrig followed with a single, but

tered across. He struck out Hafey
with runners on second and third.
Ruth's first homer and Lazzeri's
long double in the second broke the
spell on the Yankee long range guns.

delivered by the New Workers in four

CLEVELAND S.P.
REFUSES TO AID
SACCO-vANzETTI
Spurns Conference OF
Labor Groups
By a Worker Correspondent

CLEVELAND, Nov. z. - The Ohio
State Socialist Party has refused to CO.
operate with the Cleveland Sacco-
Vanzetti Defense conference, which is
composed of forty organizations for
the purpose of bringing pressure to
bear for the freedom of the two Mass
achusetts frame-up victims.
Communications had been sent to
all of the labor organizations in Cleve-
land, including the Socialist Party.
When the S. P. failed to respond to
the communications, the secretary OF
the conference, Carl Hacker, went to
the office Of the party to inquire the
reasons. John G. Willert, the secre
tary, promptly responded to the In
quiry by declaring it was the policy
of the Socialist Party not to affiliate
with any organizations for the pur-
pose of carrying on protest work, no
matter what the cause was, but that
the Socialist Party would rather de-
eide for itself on the particular ques-
ton and carry on the work, if they
think it necessary, in their own way
and by themselves without co-opera-
ton from any outside forces" Thus
the Socialist Party attempts to remain
pure"
In this manner, two men who have
virtually given their lives for the
workers are being side-stepped by
movement that claims to be a move
ment of the working class.
