newspapers of every political variety
and rank and file mass meetings of

ering of the details of the case range
from the Bottom Herald, the New York
World to the Chicago Journal of
Commerce.
But with all the outside support
that Sacco and Vanzetti are receiving
the movement for liberation con-
tlnues to have a workingclass base.
The speeches that Sacco and Vanzetti
made from the dock to the Judge be-
for he inflicted sentence of death are
setting the keynote for much of the
agitation. The two men definitely
charged that Thayer was prosecuting
them because they were radicals, had
been war DIRECTORS and represented
the oppressed class.
Labor in Nv York is holding a con-
ference, called by II Nuovo Monde,
Italian labor daily, to discuss one
hour stoODage for Sacco and Vanzet-
tt. And two days later a huge mass
meeting will be held in Union Square
Park under the auspices of the New

co and Vanzetti. In Massachusetts
the vigorous statement by President
John Van Vaerenewyck of the state

protest moves. At the offices of Gov.
Fuller it is said that there are many
appeals from international trade UNI

A young English humorist once
SAID that marriages are made in heav-
en-and most of them marred on the
honeymoon. His advice as to the
perfect remedy was rather drastic.
he said, don't marry"
Without question, marriage turns
out to be a cruel and bitter dis
appointment to nine out of every ten
women who enter into it. It NAV
also be disappointment to their hus-
bands, but it is especially disillusion-
ing to women because they have gone
INTO 1t with such optimistic high
hopes and blind faith that thy will
ind 1T the perfect paradise on earth.
And regardless of how good the
marriage might be it is never the
eXqmsltely perfect thing the women
expect it to be. 1t might even be
Detter-ln saner, more normal man
ner, but all the same, it isn't a per-
feet marriage.
1t IS almost impossible to believe
but 1t is true, that in the face of her
lltelong opportunity to observe the
daily life her mother has led, and the
domestic drudgery in the homes of
friends and neighbors, every girl
honestly believes that her own mar
riage will be a perpetual honeymoon.
and that the man she marries will re-
main the ardent lover of her court
ship days.
Of course she is doomed to dis
appointment, and when she realizes
that she has let herself in for the
usual lot, and when she has to put
her hands and her resources to the
routine labor of making her family
comfortable, for which she gets
neither appreciation nor a pay check.
and when she has to contend with
husband who seems to have cornered
the market on the whole supply of
crabbiness, it naturally gets on her
nerves and she feels like throwing up
the job.
Perhaps the best advice that one
could offer these unhappy wives is
to try to forget what they expected
of marriage and make the best of the
bargain. Place on the credit side of
the book the value of your home and
your security and your settled posi-
ton in society, and realize that you
are not as badly off as you think
you are, for the law of compensation

CALIFORNIA JUSTICE
Milan Vulich Must Hang for the
Murder of the Man Who Beat Him
Out of His Wages.

San Quentin, Cal.-(FP)-Milan
Vulkich must hang for murder. So
the California supreme court has
decided, after case that reads
like a lesson in the relations of
capital and labor. VuIdch, a Mon
tenegrin millhand, was employed
by the Alta Lumber Co., at Au-
burn, Cal. After several months
work, he was discharged with a
pay check of $3.50.
Banks refused to honor the check,
since they had had trouble previ-
Ously with Richard T. Stone, own
er of the Alta Co., and knew he
had no funds to cover it.. Vukich
took his worthless check to the
state labor commission. After many
delays and much red tape, the pen
niless labOrer carried his case to
the district attorney Of Placer
County, to the state attorney gen.
eral, finally even to the governor.
Each time he was shunted back to
the labor commission. He became
Obsessed by the injustice done him,
and was familiar figure, haunt
ing the commissions offices. At
last judgment was obtained
against Stone. Vul1ich tried to col
lect without success.
Then, driven to insanity, he took
the law into his own hands. He hid
in the mill house and when Stone
appeared he shot him dead. He
fled to Mexico, was captured and
sentenced to be hanged year ago.
The appellate court refused an ap-
peal. The supreme court has con-
Cured. And now some time Fri
day morning Milan Vukich will
mount the gallOws at San Quentin
because an ignorant, hardwOrEing
man was driven to madness by a
crooked and heartless boss.
