Workers: Down tools! The cause
of American labor is at stake! Death
to Sacco and Vanzetti means the OPP
preston of all American labor Death
to Sacco and Vanzetti means regis
tration laws and deportation for all
foreign born labor.
Join Strike,
Strike on August %! Ignore the
contemplate and treacherous decla-
rations of such organizations as the
socialist party that opposes a strike
and feels that every thing has al
ready been done. The yellow social
ist party only helps the Massaehu-
sets hangman by such actions.
Workers, there are only six days
left! The fate of Sacco and Vanzetti
are in your hands. Let your power
be felt!

mo mercy can be expected from
the capitalist courts, the courts that
have subjected Sacco and Vanzetti to
untold suffering and horror, that
have demonstrated that they will give
no justice to these workers.
"Sacco and Vanzetti must be freed,
not executed or imprisoned for life.
Between the electric chair and free
dom there stands only the organized
power Of the working class.
Demonstrations must be held. But
these are not enough. Only the
mightiest effort will halt the execu-
TONERS from carrying out their foul
murder of Sacco and Vanzetti.
1--WE therefore urge all workers to
follow the call of the Sacco- Vanzetti
Emergency Committee of New York
to strike on Monday, August %.

DEPUTY SHERIFF AND RIGHT WING
RAID JOINT DEFENSE COMMITTEE

unregistered unemployed fur work
ers yesterday estimated that there
are at present about 5000 workers
without jobs, altho this should nor
mally be the busy season of the year.
1t was the opinion of one speaker
after another that this situation was
due to the return Of sectional con-
tracing on large scale, and piece
work and home work which have
crept back since the reactionary In
ternational and A. F. of L. officials
began their attack on the union.
These evils which were always toler-
ated even when the right wing had
full control of the Joint Board are
now entirely overlooked by them in
view of their secret agreement with
the manufacturers.
The unemployment committee of 10
was authorized to call a large meet
ing in some hall, as soon as possible,
for a full discussion of all the prob
lens of the unemployed workers; and
to open headquarters in the market
where a daily discussion may take
place.
The unemployed committee will
meet today to elaborate its plans fur
Their and to prepare a detailed state
ment of what trade conditions actual
ly are at present, and what the work
ers think about them.

Chicago, Aug. 10.--tP1-Aggressive
buying lifted wheat prices today
after early downturns. Unfavorable
crop comments from the American
and Canadian northwest were re-
ceived indicating that black rust
damages was greater than expected
this side Of the international line
and that in Canada there was DAM

deliveries of corn touched new

temperatures being too low as rule
for the best development of the
crop.
Wheat closed firm Is to 2ls net

from 10 cents decline to rise Of

Government figures on spring
wheat yield were rather generally
expected to conform to latest private
estimates which indicated 290,000,O0O
to 3O5 ,O00,O bushels official July
returns were 274,0OO,OO0 bushels, and
last years crop 205.0O0,00O bushels.
On the other hand, unofficial trade
authorities looked for reduction of
100000 to 25,OOO,0OO bushels in
winter wheat production, compared
with last month.
Some experts, however, said the
government figures on the condition
of spring wheat were gathered two
to three days later than the date at
which private reports were compiled
and that the government report
might easily show below private re-
ports. 1t was pointed out, neverthe-

not get well under way until August
