been raised on the shoulders of the

only to kick the workers in the face
for their pains. The labor official

lords of that state to release Sacco

ialdom OF the A. F. Of L., who con-
lined their add to Mooney, to passing
d1gnified resolutions and giving few
thousand dollars occasionally to the
defense fund.
THE same policy has been followed
= IN the Sacco and Vanzetti case. It
is rather peculiar that a few petty
bourgeois liberals who have fastened
themselves on the Sacco and Vanzett
case should block every effort to or
ganize the entire American working
class into a gigantic drive TO free the
doomed men. Yet this is the case.
They seem to prefer to follow in the
footsteps Of the capitalist politicians
and the gum shoers Of A. F. of L.
oficialdom than do the most practical
thing, do what has always made the
American politicians sit up and take
notice: arouse the masses. The at
tempt OF those people, who sail under
the canvas Of anarchism, to prevent a
united front TO save the lives of Sac
co and Vanzetti Is nothing less than
criminal and should be condemned by
every worker regardless of political
belief. This is no question to split
theoretical hairs over. Everything to
save those two lives must be done.
