ASK KELLOGG TO
BAR GRANTING AS
SACCO'S LAWYER
Boston Tories Aroused
by Outsider" in Case

BOSTON, May 0.-Reactionaries
who are fighting for the execution Of
Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzet-
ii on July 10 are bringing pressure 70
bear on the State Department, it be-
came known today, to bar Georg
Branting from the United States.
Branting, a noted Swedish lawyer,
is the son of the late Hjalmar Brant-
ing, former labor premier of Sweden.
He has been named by the Scandin-
avian Sacco-Vanzetti Defense commit
tee, comprising labor groups in
Sweden and Norway, to assist in the
defense of the two Italian anarchists
doomed to die for a crime they did
not commit.
The brilliant young Swedish lawyer
is due to arrive in New York on the
Rotterdam next Thursday, but he will
be greeted not only by friends of Sac
co and Vanzetti but by hostile immi-
grafton authorities of local Tories sue
coed in persuading Kellogg to bar him.
According to the Boston Herald, they
object to outsiders" and especially
foreigners interfering in a purely
domestic, state case"
William G. Thompson, chief of de-
Tense counsel, was closeted with Gov
ernor Fuller for the entire afternoon
yesterday, presenting evidence re-
quested by him. Transcript of the
evidence in the Plymouth trial, in
which Vanzetti was betrayed by his
own counsel, was laid before the gov
ernor by Thompson.
President H. A. Garfield of Williams
College and head Of the famous Inter-
national Institute of Politics has APP
pealed to the governor for the full
est possible investigation" of the case
while DR.. John Haynes Holmes, the
liberal New York pastor derides the
idea that radicals commit criminal Of
lenses. In friendly letter, he "chal-
lenges" the governor to search all the
history Of radicalism for the past 100
years and you will not find a single
socialist, Communist, anarchist or
radical of any stripe who ever became
involved in highway robbery, banditry,
or any other crime of that character"

ENCDAHL SPEAKS
AT OzERY MAY
DAY CELEBRATION
Anxious to Learn About

Especial to The DAILY WORKER)

OZERY, Moscow Province, April 30,

greetings of the 10000 textile work.
ers of Ozery, about 100 miles south of
Moscow, to the textile workers of
America.
This greeting is extended especially
to the heroic fighters in the textile
mills of Passaic, New Jersey.
1t goes also in the warmest COM
radely spirit to the textile workers of
Massachusetts, the state that now
plays the role of assassin of Nicola
Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti.
1 pledged myself to extend these
greetings of the textile workers of
Free Russia to those in America, still
victims of capitalist oppression, at the
impressive May Day gathering held
in the local theater here on the eve of
May Day. My promise met with IN
slant and great enthusiasm.
May Day Eve
The big demonstration was to be
held on the morrow, May Day. But
tonight there was a preliminary
gathering that filled the theater with
the full representation Of the Local
Soviet, the members of the leading
in the Communist Party in
Ozery, as well as the active workers
in the trade unions, delegations of
workers and others admitted by card
only.
Here were assembled the working
men and women who are responsible
locally for the building Of the new So
cial order

"What has become of the former
owner Of the factory?" l asked later
as we were riding off to the station,
for the return to Moscow.
ooh, he is a fireman in our mill"
smiled the worker who rode with us,
one of the officials of the union.
"He is the leader Of our chorus"
added this worker.
"And does he sing the International,
tool" asked.
"Oh, yes" came the answer. He
leads in the singing of the Interna-
tional and he sings, too. And his son
and daughter are also in the chorus,
and they also sing the International"

FENC TAKES new
TOWN IN HANK0W
DRIVE NORTHWARD
Brand Anti-Nationalist
Rumors AS Lies

SHANGHAI, May 20-Feng Yu-
hsiang, christian general" who has
pledged his support to the Hankow
Nationalist government, is moving
rapidly southwark along the Peking-
Honan railway. His troops have
taken Chintsukwang and are sweep
ing toward Kunghsien-strategic city
in southern Honan.
Feng's troops are well-disciplined
and their great restraint is winning
for them the support Of the peasan-
try in Honan, reports state. They
are receiving a political education
and learning the objects Of the Ma
tionalist movement.
No Attack On Hankow.
Reports that Chang Kai-shek is
moving against Hankow were Of
ficially denied by Chang before leav-
ing Shanghai for Marking Rumors
about the imminent fall Of Hankow
being circulated by the British are
utterly without foundation. No news
that has been received from Hankow
indicates that the Nationalist gov
eminent is in any danger.
With four armies marching against
Canton, with armies sweeping north
from Hankow and with Feng leading
100000 well-drilled and well-equipped
men in a two-fold drive against the
war lords, the Hankow government
appears to be in an extremely strong
military position.
Observers here state that the Bri-
tish are circulating rumors about the
Imminent downfall Of the Hankow
government" in an effort to create
American sentiment for the severance
of diplomatic relations with the Ma
tionalists. Britain has already re-
called her representative, from Han
kow.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-05-21

In all quarters the fact that the
government had to abandon its an
nounced intention of giving a state
ment to the House of Commons yes
terday, and beg for another weeks
time, is taken as sign of weakness,
weakness such as few British cab
inets have ever survived.
1t is admitted by all that the police
did not find the important state
paper" the finding Of which could
alone justify or even appear to JUS
tify the violent breach of diplomatic
immunity which Home Secretary Sir
William Representatives. committed in
the raiding of ARGOS House.
Entire files of the letters and rec
ords of the trade delegation and Ar
cos were carried off to Scotland Yard
by the raiders.
"All the documents have been ex-
amined and the so-called stolen docu-
ment unfound." Arthur Ponsonby,
Under Secretary in the Foreign Office
under the Labor Premier Macdonald,
remarked to-day. "Why, then, cannot
the government make report? / dis
miss the idea that they are fabricat-
ing forgeries in the interval. A gov
eminent which was born by the aid
of a Russian fraud may conceivably
find it's death in the same quarter"
This last is a reference to the
"Zinovieff Letter" forgery which
won the Conservatives the last gen.
eral election.
Might Knock Out "Jinx."
1t is known that the group in the
cabinet following Joynson-Hicks in
tended yesterday to publish documents
of very dubious authenticity showing
a connection between the Communist
International and the activities of
members Of the trade delegation, and
to demand a severance of diplomatic
and trade relations between Britain
and the U.S.S.R. on this basis, in
cidentally, of course, solving the
question of an excuse for the raid.
The more moderate wing of the
cabinet, led by Baldwin, who fears to
wreck British industry altogether by
checking the growing trade with the
Soviet Union, and afraid that public
ridicule would follow another such
open forgery as that of the ain
ovieff Letter." has at least temper
arily vetoed the plan.
Baldwin seriously considered disa-
vowing the raid, and asking for the
home secretary's resignation, but real
lied that the die-hards were strong
enough in his party to wreck the cab
met and force another general cleo
ton. The quandary continues.
Would Remove Immunity.
The extreme die-hard faction is led
by Winston Churchill, Lord Birken-
head and Sir William Joynson-Hicks.
Though it bears no more love for
the Soviet Union than the Churchill
group, the other faction believes it
wiser to pursue a more moderate
policy. 1t holds the view that the

lneSe are questions Jne WOIheIS are
entitled to have answered; these are
the questions with which The DAILY
WORKER will concern itself in this
series on The Traction Swindle, Inc.
First, let us examine frankly and
openly the purpose behind the investi-
cation. 1t can be stated fatty, and
viii be proved in this article, that the
transit commission hearings are
dummy proceedings whose real pur-
pose is far different than that Of
fered by Samuel Untermyer or any
other of the interested principals.
These transit hearings are the
weapon which Governor AL Smith is
holding over the heads of the trac-
ton czars, with whom he is temper
'arily al odds and whom he is seek
ing to force onto his bandwagon,
headed for the Democratic presiden-
tial nomination.
Bee Was Unexpected.
This temporary and unexpected
tussle which has arisen because of
AL Smiths presidential aspirations is
a development which no one anticipa-
ted at the time the secret traction
deal was made about two years ago.
Previous to the election of James
J. Walker as mayor of New York
when the outstanding problem before
the traction interests was to elimin-
ate that bone of contention, the then
Mayor John Hylan, there was held
the secret conference already men
toned.
At this conference were present
Frank Hedley, president and general
manager of the marlborough Rapid
Transit, Gerhard Dahl, chairman of
the board of directors of the Brook
lyn- Manhattan Transit, Governor
Alfred E. Smith, James j. Walker,
candidate for mayor and Herbert
Bayard Swope, executive editor of
the New York World.
Among other things the conference
decided that the issue of the five cent
fare should be kept for the coming
campaign but that at the proper NOM
ent the mayor of New York and the
Governor of the state should ode
liver"
Ditch Hylan.
On the basis of this deal, Walker
was nominated for mayor; Hylan was
properly dumped; the five cent fare
was dangledi aloft and the first act
of the drama had begun.
Almost Immediately, however, the
wave of popularity which had washed
the debonair Jimmie Walker into port,
had the effect of turning his head.
1t had been agreed that he was to
speak of the five cent fare before
election but Jimmie found the popu-
larity so pleasing that he continued
the racket even after the November
In the emergency, the traction
barons sent Swope, the executive edi-
tor of the World to interview
Jimmie Walker, the mayor, and to re-
mind him Of his pledge. Walker
thereupon completely denied having
attended the conference
Also Jimmie began 10 lnRratiate
more and more firmly with
the old guards of Tammany Hall as
against the New Tammany Hall"
which AL Smith was building up. Of
this most interesting situation more
will be said at another time. Here it |
is necessary only to remark that the |
Governor retaliated with the spec
tacular series of raids on the old
Tammany clubs and gambling joints.
These raids, conducted by the re-
Gently departed Police Commissioner |
the personal friend OF |
AL Smith, nearly split the Tammany
asunder
Blame 1t On AL.
When the old guards came to
Jimmie for protection, his only reply
