SPEEDY JUSTICE NEEDED

Probably criminal case in recent years has at
Tacted such world wide attention. caused so much
comment as that of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo
Vanzett, condemned to death for the murder of two
men at South Braintree, Massachusetts.
The crime committed April Is, 1920 The
committee have fought the conviction through the
courts since their indictment September IL, 1920
In the Latest move to save the from the death
peralty Governor Fuller of Massachusetts asked
to review the entire He did and after weeks
of study, his decision Wednesday night, refusing
cemency to the condemned men who are sentenced to
die next week
In the years that have passed since they were in
dlcted demonstrations in behalf of the accused have
been carried in al parts of the world There have
been strikes in their behalf by labor organizations pro-
tests from thousands of persons and two three
cases of bombing to protest against their execution
Confessed radicals plea for cemency in behalf of
Sacco and Vanzetti is based largely the claim that
they were convicted of murder because they rad
Gals and foreigners, during period when America
was suffering from postwar hysteria.
Governor FulleTs finding is that they were fairly
tried and convicted and for this he declines
interfere. He is to be commended for not permitting
himself to be swayed from what he believed to be

the deserving of consideration for he had
unpleasant and difficult task to perform.
The pity of the whole is that under our laws
of this kind drag along for years instead of
being disposed of speedily. Continuous delays weaken
the power of courts and tend to make travesty of
justice.
California has taken step in the right direction
by passing laws to speed up justice. Honest decisions
