(ContiNNed from Paae Onel


big financial masters of America,
who give Governor Fuller his orders)
to make the temporary retreat of the
twelve day postponement of the
death of Sacco and Vanzetti.
"The flood of strikes which swept
the country during the last few days
before the reprieve-these were the
cause of Butcher Fuller's hesitation
to kill Sacco and Vanzetti! More
strikes-a hundred times more and
bigger strikes must be made in or
der to carry Sacco and Vanzetti out
of the death house and out of the
prison to the streets and freedom"
The International Labor Defense in
urging strike. to save the framed
up workers states:
"We are advocating protest strikes
of the workers everywhere and pre-
dict that the strike movement will
now take on volume which will rem
der the execution of Sacco and Van
zetti impossible"
Expect Nothing From Courts.
The headquarters Of the Sacco-
Vanzetti Emergency Committee are
humming with preparations for mass
activities for the coming week. The
officials of the Emergency Commit
tee have no faith that the Massachu-
sets Supreme Judicial Court will re-
turn a favorable decision today when
it meets to consider the granting of
a writ of error.
Commenting on the possibility of a
favorable decision in the matter Rose
Baron, secretary of the Emergency
Committee, said, "There is little hope
that the five Supreme Court judges
will do anything to save our impris-
oned comrades. If they return a writ
of error this will mean that Governor
Fuller, Judge Thayer and the COVER
nor's Advisory Committee will stand
discredited; anyone who knows how
the Massachusetts, legal hierarchy
are interlocked will realize that little
legal hope remains for Sacco and
Vanzetti
Seven Years Torture.
eve have seen what is to be ex-
pected in the Massachusetts courts.
These courts have subjected Sacco
and Vanzetti to seven years of I'M
imaginable torture. Time and again
they have been prepared for the bar
barity Of the electric chair.
"The last court of appeal is the
mass strength of the American and
international working class. The
Sacco-Vanzetti Emergency Committee
is calling upon all labor organiza-
lions in the city of New York to urge
their members to demonstrate and
strike in protest against the legal
murder which is about to be perpe-
trated in Charlestown prison in the
early morning hours of Aug. 22nd.
No Hope In Court.
Miss Baron received telegram
from the Boston Sacco-V anzetti De-
tense Committee which reads as fol
lows:
"Saeco and Vanzetti die August %.
Respite does not lessen the danger of
the situation. No hope in court.
Prisoners thank you for your work
in saving them thus far. They say
to you that only increased coopera-
ton may save them in the end. The
committee has set August 18th as
the day of a general protest and the
22nd for general strike"
1t is the opinion of Miss Baron
that if the Department of Justice
would open it's files, evidence therein
would reveal that Sacco and Vanzetti
We're bounded as radicals and the
fear of deportation and possible tor
ture such as befell Salsedo (who was
found smashed to pieces by a fall
from the fourteen-story building of
the Department of Justice offices in
Park Row caused them to act in
a suspicious manner upon arrest.
