John Nicholas Beffel, Trained Observer, Points
Out Host of Inconsistencies

Gov. Alvan T. Fuller's decision in
the Sacco-Vanzetti case is character
lied by John Nicholas Bethel, news
paper man who attended the trial of
the two laborites at Dedham in 1920,
as illogical and in disregard of many

Beffel, who is now a member of
the New York World editorial staff,
was New England correspondent for
the Federated Press in 1920-21, and
watched the Sacco-Vanzetti situation
at close range for more than a year.
He began investigation of the case in
December, 1919, reading the official
transcripts covering the Vanzetti
trial at Plymouth and the preliminary
hearing at Brockton.

Halliday Strike Is
Winning Support in
Philadelphia, Penn.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - The
resolutions unanimously adopted
by the delegates of 1856 workers
organizations in conference here,
demanding a halliday strike for
Sacco and Vanzetti on Tuesday,
were as follows;
JOIN THE STRIKE!
We, the representatives of 1856
organizations of Philadelphia, Pa,
assembled at the Machinist Tenn
pie:
Strongly condemn the atrocious
decision Of Governor Fuller and
the labor haters behind him, to
murder our comrades Sacco and
/ Vanzetti, for their loyalty to the
working class.
Organized labor everywhere
must do everything in its power
to free those two martyrs of la
Dor, Sacco and Vanzetti.
We solemnly pledge ourselves to
extend our energies to the utmost
"a behalf of their freedom.
Let Tuesday noon, August 9th,
be set aside as the time when all
labor must quit work thruout the
city of Philadelphia in protest
against the murder of Sacco- and
Vanzetti.
Every delegate here assembled
must go back to his respective or
ganization to see that the slogan
of a half day strike to begin Tues
day noon goes into effect.
We call upon the Central Labor
Union of Philadelphia to see to it
that all trade unions in the city
respond.
We call upon James Maurer,
president of the Pennsylvania
State Federation of Labor, and
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor to
make this strike cover the entire
state and country.
We declare that the gravity of
the situation demands the closest
unity of all sections of the work
ing class. Thru unity and soil
darity labor can still be successful
in its struggle to save the lives
of Sacco and Vanzetti.

Mother Bloor, the principal
speaker, received great reception
from the crowd when she took the

that the case OF Sacco and Vanzetti
is by no means unique in American
labor history, but instead is typical
example of the "justice" meted out
to workers who dared to challege the
might of American capitalism. The
speaker declared that only when the
workers take the state power in their
own hands and establish & workers
and farmers government in America,
will these brutal frame-ups of mill
tant workers be impossible.

Philosophers Nephew
Gets 80 Days in Jail

stand in municipal court when his
name was called and refusing to pay
fines totalling $75 for "inciting to riot
and assault" upon an officer during
a Sacco and Vanzetti demonstration
Sunday on Boston Common. Edward
Holton James, wealthy nephew of the
late Henry James, novelist, caused
furore today when he took sentence
Of 90 days in jail.
James, who spent the night in
Back Bay police station, took seat
in the prisoners dock when he was
led into court Asked to stand when
his name was called he refused say
ing: 81 refuse to stand up before the

No Distinction Between Murderers.
He added: 81 will not recognize
murderers whether they be judges or
a governor"
? Sacco-Vanzetti sympathizers had
been barred from the courtroom.
The prisoner remained in his seat
while the charge against him was
read. James, who was arrested with
three others, flatly refused to pay
the fines imposed, he will appeal the
ninety day Jail sentence.
Denies Smuggling Policeman.
He waB charged with striking

Cantor in court this morning
faced two charges, first for refusing
to obey an officer, second for disturb

the first charge and the second

23d Day of Hunger Strike.
At state'e prison Sacco today en-
tered the 23rd day of his hunger
strike and Vanzetti likewise refused
breakfast. Sacco was said by prison
officials to be weak, but they were
not alarmed.
Sacco and Vanzetti defenders,
leaving no stone uniformed to save the
lives of the two men, today sent a
letter to President Coolidge at Rapid
City, S. D., asking him to follow 1.-The
precedent set by President Wilson
