1T is tragedy that scientists

REPUBLICANS ASK.
]. PANKEN TO RUN
ON THEIR TICKET
Socialist Judge Gets
Fusion Offer

Jacob Panken, socialist municipal
court judge has been offered the CO.
operation of the republican party in
the coming election.
The republican party organization
in the sixth assembly district which
includes the Second Municipal Court
district where Panken is running for
reelection withdrew one of its can,
didates, Samuel w. Greenwald so
Panken could be placed on the ballot
as fusion nominee.
To Garry District.
The republican party has been of
the opinion that they would have
change of carrying the district if
Panken was one of their standard
bearers. The proposal was that in
addition to Panken the other candi-
date would be F. P Cantinella, a
member of the republican organiza-
ton. 1t was felt that if the republi-
can and socialist parties pooled their
strength they would be able to elect
Panken, socialist and Cantinella, re-
publican.
While the socialist party is excep-
tionally anxious to reflect Panken- to
the judgeship they realize that ac-
cepting the help of the republican
party might be successful insofar as
electing Panken is concerned, but on
the other hand it would be a clear
example of the anti-working class
character of that organization. On
that basis Pankan has declined the
help of the republican party
Panken has been Endorsed for re-
election by the Municipal Court Com
mittee of the Bar Association. an
anti-working class organization.

As Cook Flags U. S.

q LONDON, Aug, 29.--10,000 work
ers and sympathizers demonstrated
in Trafalgar Square yesterday in
final meeting of protest against the
murders of Sacco and Vanzetti. While
the grim-looking police surrounded
the square in hundreds, waiting for
an opportunity to interfere, A. j,
Cook, secretary of the Miners FEEDER
alton and leader of the miners during
their long strike, declared that the
British working class will never for
get and never forgive the electrocu-
ton of the two innocent workers.
"The statue of liberty has become
the monument Of murder" Cook cried
as a roar of assent arose from the
thousands of workers. Cook called
on all the workers to organize if they
did not wish to see constant repeti-
tons of the Massachusetts outrage.
During the course of the meeting a
man leaped upon the base of the Mel
son Monument and unrolled an
American flag with the intention of
pouring oil over it and burning it.
Members Of the Glass War Prisoners
Aid persuaded the man to desist.

heard somewhere, somehow, by the
two men who have just been killed
for this song.
The darkness came The meeting
broke up But the crod would not
go home. It circled about the
square, pushed and prodded by po-
lice. A comrade pulled out big
red flag and waved it in the crowd
as he passed the Communist news
paper, "Freiheit. Six mad cops
pounced on him, while the crowd
booed, and led him to the lookup.
The crowd drifted down Four
teenth street, while dozens of mot
orcycle machine gun cops raced up
and down waving clubs. The crowd
drifted down Second avenue. They
were singing. For hours, even
after the police had broken up
various groups, clubbing and ar
resting them, crowds of young
workers roamed the East Side
streets, shouting for Sacco and Van
zetti and singing revolutionary
songs.
No, nothing could hurt this de-
monstration. Sacco and Vanzetti
have not died in vain-their deaths
will be remembered whenever a
mass of workers gather, as they
gathered yesterday, and about them
are ranged the machine guns and
uniforms of the murderous capita
list system.

Silence Kept at Funeral.
At ?. NJ, at the moment of the
funeral Of the martyred revolution
aries, solemn silence took place ev-
erywhere. Resolutions of protest
were universally passed, calling the
proletaTiat for the fight against adj
vancing world capitalism.
An article in Pravda discussed the
funeral saying: Sacco and Vanzetti
being anarchists failed to understand
that the victory over the bourgeois
yoke will be possible solely by way of
thes revolutionary struggle for prole-
tartan rule. This does not prevent
the proletariat of the Soviet Union
from reverently bowling their head
before these victims of the capitalist
class. But it also obliges the Soviet
workers to appeal to the toilers of
the whole world, now demonstrating
openly their will to fight against the
and to call them to draw
exclusively class and revolutionary
From this struggle the social dem
ocracy has gone tottering after the
bourgeoisie in blaming the campaign
of protest. But the day of the fun
eral of Sacco and Vanzetti will be-
come further step in the consoli-
dation Of the proletarian forces
against the bourgeoisie Of all coun-
tries.

PrOIGtarian Press
Bazaar to Be Held
In New York Soon

Trade Unions, fraternaI organiza-

circle branches, will take up the
question of the First National Press
Bazaar being held in Madison Square
Garden, New York City on October
6, rs, 8, under the joint auspices of
The DAILY WORKER and the
"Freiheit."
Reports coming in show that COM
mittees are working in practically
every city and village in the country
so that they will have booth in the
largest hall in the world at the larg-
est Bazaar yet held in working class
history. There are only five more
weeks in which to put this over so
those organizations who have not yet
started preparations for their booths
are urged to do so right now rs.
% The Red Honor Roll for- ti1Is af-
fair is going to be the most elaborate
yet. Names from the Far West will
be there alongside names from New
York and every other place. Every
militant worker is urged to have his
or her name on this magnificent all
embracing Honor Roll which will have
a privileged place in the archives of
the International Working Glass. If
anyone cannot find an Honor Roll on
which to place their name they are
urged to send their dollar. to the
DAILY WORKER and it will be at
tended to.
Something really exceptional-one
might well say historical is being
arranged as our program. Every or
ganization in the United States that
believes the two militant working
class newspapers are worthy of sup
port should send their greetings for
publication in the program. A full
page costs $1,000, half page $4,000,
quarter page $4,000 and one eighth
page $1,000. Raise the question of
an ad at the next meeting of your
organization. In order to have time
for printing ads must be sent in at
once
Organizations are urged to inn
mediately form Bazaar Committees
which should have as their objective
the putting Of their immediate circle
on the map as working class fighters.
Get in touch with the Bazaar Com
mittees which should have as their
objective the putting of their immedi-
ate circle on the map as working
class fighters. Get in touch with the
Bazaar Committee at 80 Union
Square if in doubt as to what should
be done. The bosses have increased
their fighting forces against us. Our
answer must be the strengthening OF
Labor's Press. This can only be done
by all of us rallying to the call and
making the National Bazaar an
epoch making event in our work, &C.,
