POLICE ESTABLISH MARTIAL LAW IN FUR DISTRICT
Current EUent5
By t. j. o'FLAHERrY.

THE death sentence has been duly
passed on Sacco and Vanzetti and
those two working class leaders are
brought several more steps nearer
the gallows. Despite the almost uni
versal belief among individuals even
in capitalist circles that still retain a
vestige of a social conscience, that
those two workers are innocent of the
crime Of which they were convicted
by a prejudiced jury, Judge Thayer
finished his part of the gruesome
conspiracy. 1t is now the working
class of the United States and of the
world arrayed against the judicial
hangmen of this country in the strug-
gle over two proletarian lives.

TAKE the case of Tom Mooney as
one horrible example! Even presi-
dent Wilson's Investigator had to
come to the conclusion that Mooney
was the victim of a frameup. But
the murderous capitalist crew that
held and still hold California in their
grip ignored all evidence and the
pleas of prominent citizens who could
not by any stretch of the imagination
be considered radical. Mooney was
saved from the death chair by the
solidarity of the workingclass. But
is still behind the gray walls of San
Quentin. The employers could not
forgive him for his efforts to organ
ize the workers into militant trade
unions. That is the crime of Sacco
and Vanzetti.

THE great majority of the people
still have a childlike confidence in
.the Fairness OF 6sf legal machinery.
Even where class is not arrayed
against class it is undoubtedly true
that judges are sometimes open to
influence in deciding poi ats of law.
Citizens who have been burnt know
this. All who have had experience
with capitalist political organizations
take no stock in the fiction of legal
rectitude. The legal system was es-
tablished to bolster up the economic
system which is based on the exploit
tation of wage labor. Those who ap-
pear in court as the enemies of that
economic system are considered gull
ty until they are proven innocent and
not the other way around.

ers walking the streets seeking work.
They grumble and declare there is
something wrong but if you mention
the cause of their misery or suggest
a solution that has been cursed by
the clergy, they show signs of terror
or exhibit strong inclination to slice
your anatomy with a jack-knife. If
they have the price Of newspaper
they will glance over the headlines
which tell of the imposition of the
death sentence on two fellow-workers
and then turn to the sporting pages.
They do not realize that those who
want to inject an electric current in
to Sacco and Vanzetti are responsible
for their lack of employment.

THIS state of affairs should not
breed pessimism. It should only
generate a determination to work
harder at the task of carrying the
message of a new order of society to
the befuddled workers. Their in
stincts are good. In the shop the
most ill-informed workers believe in
sticking together against the boss.
The exception is looked on with scorn.
But against this healthy instinct is
arrayed the mighty influence of the
capitalist press, the schools and the
pulpit. Those agencies are busy
preaching the gospel of obedience
and meekness to the workers. The

THOUSANDS and hundreds of thou

an appalling callousness to the fate
Of Sacco and Vanzetti. Their minds

several years.

IT is assumed by many people that
the long period that elapsed be-
tween the arrest of Sacco and Van
zetti and the date on which the death
sentence was pronounced, is proof
that they were given every possible
opportunity by the legal machinery
of the state of Massachusetts to
prove their innocence. Nothing could
be farther from the truth. What the
two doomed men sought was a new
trial, defended by competent and hon
est counsel and in an atmosphere. free
from the class hatred that was in
jected into the first farcical trial by
Judge Thayer. This right was denied
them.

PALM BEACH GIRL 5
 HEADS LIBERTY BILL
 WITH BEBE DANIELS

Surrounded by Florida's muchly publicized beauty spots and show plac- es, Bebe Daniels is at the Liberty theatre tonight in a new and stimu- lating farce-comedy, entitled, appro- priately enough, The Palm Beach Girl" Supporting this irrepressible comedienne is hand-picked cast.
 "The Palm Beach Girl' is based on the story by Byron Morgan and the play, Please Help Emily" by H. M. Harwood. As the title suggests, it is laid in the smart society atmosphere of Palm Beach, but in the unfolding of the plot, Miami Beach, Biscayne bay, Lake Worth and other pictures que Florida backgrounds are glimpsed.
 Bebe's role is that of naive coun- try girl who comes to Palm Beach to visit her wealthy aunts, and be- comes involved in a series of scream ingly funny and wildly thrilling adven- lures.
 The spectacular wrecking of hand car by a speeding Florida train, Bebe's fight with the bootleggers, her Imaginable experiences with the sher- if and her humorous antics among the society folk are other highlights worth mentioning. An appealing little TO- nance in which Bebe and Larry Gray are the principals runs thru the story. Gray is the sporting society million aire with whose speed boat Bebe cuts up.

the past few months that hundreds
OF sincere testimonials from local
people are on record to offer con
vincing proof OF the unusual merit Of
this remarkable new compound.
Among the most recent indorse-

from Mrs. H. S. Andrews, 202 N.

her report in person to the Konjola

is meeting large crowds daily, who
