Protest Tremendous, Says Committee
While the monster Representation
was in progress, Miss Rose Baron,
secretary of the Sacco- Vanzetti Emer-
gency Committee which arranged the,
protest and also the strike issued the
following statement:
Il am very pleased at this splendid
turnout. This is our answer to the
reactionary labor leaders of New York
and their socialist henchmen. This is
ample proof of the solidarity of the
militant labor groups Of this city.
This is New York's answer to the
Fullers, the Thayers and Lowells."
Earlier in the day reports began
to come into the offices of the Emer-
gency Committee that scores CT out
law strikes were taking place through
out the city. A dozen workers or so
would down tools and walk out of the
factory in answer TO the appeal pub
lished today by, the Emergency Com
mittee urging workers to ignore their
leaders advice not to heed the radical
strike call These small outlaw walk
outs spread from shop to shop until
tens of thousands were out.
Although the strike was called for
three O'Clock in the afternoon, several
units went out before the scheduled
time, Local 2, and SO Of the Inter-

think of them as individuals. "As
they vision them sitting in the cleo

see the forms Of Sacco and Vanzetti,
but a composite picture of all rebels
against capitalism's rule"
Time for Resolutions Passed.
Declaring that the time had raised
for the adoption Of resolutions the
chairmen at the five platforms de-
clared that the workers of the world
had already shown their disgust with
the pretenses about "iustice" when it
concerns the lives Of members eff the
working class.
At 6 o'clock as the meeting was
about to conclude the speakers sinful
taneously asked the audience 10 vote
on the question of freedom for Sacco
and Vanzetti The huge throng lifted
their hands shouting for the freedom
Of the two innocent workers.
Speaker after speaker during the
three hours that the meeting contin-
ued warned that the crime about to be
perpetrated in Massachusetts, would
not be forgotten for many years, They
pointed out that never in the his
tory of the labor movement in this
country had the ruling class in this
country been so fiendish and murder
Gus as they have shown themselves
to be during the seven years that
Sacco and Vanzetti have been tor
,tured in the Massachusetts prisons.
Decisions of Justice"
They pointed out that the decisions
of the liberals that the two workers
would ultimately be freed merely be-
cause individuals of prominence had
taken an interest in their behalf had
proved itself to he hollow, and would
serve, as an object lesson to the Amer
lean working class in the future.

The tinkle of many stringed
