Allies to Aid War Against
cco-Vanzetti Slayers

in the Soviet Union that it is pos
sible for world labor to enjoy and
profit by the leadership of the in
ternationals that have sprung, not
alone out of the Russian Bolshevik
Revolution, but also out Of the class
conflict in all countries.
There is the Communist Interna-
tional, the world organization of
Communist Parties in more than
three score countries, the vanguard
of the oppressed.
There is the Young Communist
international, the International of
the revolutionary youth of the
world, that has modified millions
around it's standards, that sees in
the execution Of Sacco and Van
Zetti the effort of American greed
to maintain in slavery generations
yet unborn.
There is the Peasants Interna-
tional that rallies and unites the
revolutionary farmers of the world,
and that works for the unity of city
and land labor in all countries. 1t
feels in the murder of Sacco and
Vanzetti the thrust of capitalism
against the tillers of the soil, MAX
ing worse their conditions every
where, including the United States.
There is the Red International of
Labor Unions, feared by the reac-
ton within the ranks of labor in all
countries as we'll as the capitalists
themselves. 1t sees in the murder
of Sacco and Vanzetti, renewed at
tacks upon the trade unions in
America, certainly, but also in all
countries bulwarked by the Amer
lean reaction.
There is the International Red
Relief, the world organization of
the class war prisoners. 1t battles
for the working class victims of
capitalist "justice" in all lands. 1t
sses in the execution of Sacco and
Vanzetti, the bourgeois terror of
Mussolini's Italy and Horthy's
Hungary, and the Roumania of the
bloody Queen Maria" transplanted
to the United States. 1t, calls for
working class solidarity against
the bloody bourgeois class justice.
Millions of workers turnout the
United, States are realizing for the
first time, as result of the muir
der of Sacco and Vanzetti, that
world laboEis well organized ON an
international scale; that the issues
confronting the working class are
worldwide in scope.
Thus the lightning bolt of death
that shot thru the bodies of Sacco
and Vanzetti, has also torn aside
the veil of ignorance that has hung
so long and so tenaciously before
the eyes of the working class of
this country.
Multitudes of American workers
behold for the first time powerful
allies rallying in their support in
the fight against the exploiters at
home.
There are not only the 100000
900 of freed workers and farmers
of the Union of Soviet Republics.
There are also the powerful and
militant sections of the working
class in every capitalist land or
ganized and educated for carrying
on the class struggle.
There are also the growing ma
tionalist movements in every sub
ject colonial nation, as we'll as the
resistance being offered by the
smaller semi-subject nations;
whole array of powerful opposition
to capitalist tyranny and imperial
list plumber.
The killing of Sacco and Vanzetti
was challenge by the capitalists
to the workers of this country.
Labor must take up the challenge.
The martyrdom of Sacco and
Vanzetti must be transmitted into
the unity of the working class.
Forward to greater and more
militant trade unions; the organi-
cation of the unorganized, the
building of the Labor Party, the
protection of the foreign-born
workers, the unity of the Negro
with the white workers, the
strengthening of the Workers
(Communist) Party; the solidifying
of the class forces Of labor in
America.
In memory of Sacco and Van
zetti, build for the overthrow of the
capitalist social order that
slaughtered them. Build for, la
