Bartolomeo Vanzetti in foreign coun-
| tries, who were aroused fortnight
ago by Gov. Fuller's decision not to
pardon the condemned men or grant
| them a new trial, have been stirred
anew by the Massachusetts Supreme
| Courts rejection Of their appeal.
In Berlin q crowd Of Communists
| gathered for a demonstration before
the American embassy late last night
and the police had to use black jacks
to dispense them. At three Commu-
mist demonstrations in other parts Of
| the city resolutions were adopted de-
manding the immediate release of the
two men. Posters were displayed by
the Communists accusing the German
bourgeoisie of playing the game Of
American murder-justice." They
also urge the German proletariat to
"strike blow" for the condemned
men. A number Of the newspapers
condemned the courts decision in no
uncertain language.
New Strike Planned.

in Argentina by series of strikes and
demonstrations, and now the workers

Several thousand persons paraded
| through the chief thoroughfares of
Brest, France, when the news came
| from Massachusetts,. The demonstra-
tors were orderly and the police did
not have to intervene.
The guards about the American en-
bassy in Paris were augmented by
order of the police project to prevent
untoward incidents by sympathizers
| of the condemned men. The Italian
and Spanish embassies are also heav-
| lily guarded. There is bitter comment
on the decision by the Paris papers
which have radical tendencies. Typi-
cal of the comment is the remark of
LIE Soir, 'It is not justice, but just
plain murder" This paper asks the
members Of the American Legion now
in France to hear the appeal OF this
entire country that this greatest in
Justice be not consumfnated."
Film Ban Urged.
At the largest hall in Geneva last
night 5000 persons gave approval to

| manding the release Of Sacco and
Vanzetti. They voted to name a COM
| mittee to carry on propaganda LOT
boycotting American products. espe-
ciafly films. 1t is reported that three
attempts have been made in Geneva
to damage American films.
Newspapers Of all political affilia-
tons in London express regret over
the decision of the Massachusetts
court. The Laborite Daily Herald IS
| strong in it's denunciation and calls
upon the workers to give every sup
port TO the mass meeting to be staged
in Hyde Park Sunday.
This paper prints comment against
| the execution by II. G. Wells and
such labor leaders as Arthur Hender'

and Ben Tillett. 1t quotes the nov
elist as saying: 1.-THE deliberate muir
