What About Sacco and
Vanzetti? Russ Query
u. S. Labor Pilgrims
Bv CARL HAESSIER

Moscow - (FP)-The blare of
trumpets and boom of cannon with
all ohter features of the epoch-mak-
ing celebration of the 10th anniver-
sary of the establishment of the
workers and peasants republic in
Russia have not drowned the voices
of the American labor martyrs, Sac
co and Vanzetti.
"Why were Sacco and Vanzetti ex-
ecuted? Why had not American
workers the organized power to pre-
vent it?" were among the first cues
tions fired at the American rank and
file delegation visiting Soviet Russia
as it crossed the border between Fin
land and Russia.
The delegation was met at the bor-
der by large reception committee
of Leningrad trade unionists. When
they reached Leningrad, the birth
place of the revolution, an even great
er ovation awaited them. The Rus
sian workers showed a great inter
est in everything that is happening
in America. They wanted to know
about the new Ford, when it is COM
ing out and whether Ford's plants are
unionized.
The delegation proceeded immedi-
ately from Leningrad to Moscow in
order to be present at the big cele.
bration there which was featured by
parade of 10000 trained troops fol,
lowed by 250,000 trade unionists
Hour after hour this gigantic parad,
passed by Lenin's tomb just outsid,
the historic walls of the Kremlin. On
top of the tomb reviewing the par
ade stood Kalinin, president of tn
Soviet republic, who before the revo
luton belonged to the poorest clas
| of the peasantry.
The movie "October," a titani
4 portrayal of the story of the revoIu
ton acted out by the leaders an
workers who took part at the YER
scenes where it was staged in earn
est just 10 years ago, made tn
whole thing very vital to guests fror

Washington--the most beautiful
and inviting city in America with
civic and business organizations too
Jealous of each sother to get to-
gether and advertise II and exploit
II.
Such was the picture presented,
withaI in the most sympathetic
analysis, by Lieut.. Col. H. Edmund
Bulls. speaking today before the
luncheon of the Advertising Club
In the City Club.
Describing one instance after an
other of civic apathy he has OBJ.
served, Colonel Bulls said: I'm
trying to seek the reason for this
peculiar condition, / was forced to
the conclusion that lack of enthusi-
asm was caused by the narrowing
influence of long service in Gov
eminent bureaus. Many of us in
the Capital City have gotten into
the Government rut''
He laid responsibility In part to
the marrow built-in type of homes"
which so or 20 per cent of people
here live in, he said. Those of
US who live in such homes have
our vision restricted We don't see
az much of our neighbors as we
would IL we lived in detached
houses.
THE civic consciousness of the
District of Columbia has never
been developed as It should have
BEEN" he said. He cited as an. ex-
ample the way local civic organiza-
tions have dropped the move to
bring the Democratic National Con.
vention here.
Mentioning by name the Chamber
of Commerce, Board of Trade, and
the Merchants and Manufacturers
| Association, he said: ''It seems alb
surd that, instead of having one
strong. central, civic organization
ItHdt can really speak Tor our CITY.
We have a number of separate or
ganizations. none OF which can pos.
sibly be considered to really repre-
sent this great community"
He declared that a united civic
effort should bring to Washington
the Olympic games In 1892. to be a
part Of the national celebration
that year of the two-hundredth an.
ntversary Of George Washington's
birth.

city planning for the past 20 years,
Nolen said there are $50 cities with
coming laws. $50 with planning com.
missions, and lao with both. All of
this has come about during the past
20 years, he said.
That the city planner of the fu-
ture must proceed with a new phil
osophy--one that deviates from the
dominant bigger and better" note Of
American business-was the declara-
ton Of Lewis Mumford. speaking
on the next 20 years in the science
Of planning. Cities, now hostile to
life and to culture and to the finer
aspects Of civilization, he declared,
must be humanized.
To do this. he said, congestion
must be dissipated. High buildings
must be fought. the congregation Of
large populations in small areas
must be stopped.
