.LONDONCOSSACKS
RIDE DOWN WOMEN
AND INJURE MANY
Scores Are Trampled in
SaccO-Vanzetti Parade

LONDON, August 11.-Scores of
men, women and children were in
iured in front of the United States
embassy here when London mounted
police charged four and six abreast
into the thousands of marchers who
were gathering at the embassy.
AS the horses came on, the front
ranks of the masses were crushed
back upon those behind and the strug-
Cling crowds trampled one another
or were trampled by the hoofs of the
English Cossacks as they charged.
35 of the women were forced to the
brink of an excavation and showed in,
many being seriously injured.
The parade, began after mass
meeting at Hyde Park where A. j.
Cook, leader of the Miners Strike,
and other speakers addressed the
crowd who pledged themselves in
thousands to repay like with like if
the United States murders Sacco and
Vanzetti.
At the conclusion of the speeches
with red flags flying and singing the
International, the thousands began
their parade down Park Lane to
Grosvenor Gardens, where the Amer
lean embassy is situated.
Thousands of spectators watched
from the sidewalks and all traffic
was halted in the streets as the pro-
cession poured along. Hundreds of
taxicabs, containing men and women
in evening dress, had to wait half an
hour until the masses had filed into
Grosvenor Gardens.
There they were met by 500 police
on guard and squads of mounted Of
ficers, who charged into the parade
trampling women and men. Shrieks
were heard from the injured and cries
of "There are children here" but the
police completed their charge, leaving
numbers of the injured on the square,
jammed into doorways in an effort to
escape the brutality of the Cossacks,
or escaping down side streets.
The crowd at first dispersed, but
regathered before midnight and the
police again charged it while the men
showed fight and miniature battles
were begun on the sidewalks.
Calling for an anti-American boy
colt in the worldwide drive for the
freedom of the framed-up workers,
A. j. Cook, secretary of the Miners
| Federation declared.
II warn you and l warn Amer
leans, that if they murder these two
men, we shall get even with them.
ask you to take off your hats and
pledge yourselves to get even. l am
not antiAAmerican, but anti-capital-
list. We must boycott America.
British justice is no different from
American justice. L am more con-
cerned with the results of this exc
cution, if it takes place, than with
the murder itself. If America kills
these two men, it will be murder, and
we shall reply and we shall repay"

Case of Two Workers
Before Supreme Court

NCOHGtItu6U JFOHt uyG OWGJ
of the United States Supreme Court
and Judge George A. Anderson of
the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals had ruled that under the le-
gal points involved the matter was
entirely in the hands of the state
courts; that they would not issue a
habeas corpus writ.
The petition for a writ of error
was brought before Judge Sanderson
of the State Supreme Court with a
series of affidavits attached recount
ing conversations by the jurist and
his unfair attitude on the bench in
connection with the radical beliefs of
Sacco and Vanzetti.
Their Masters Voice.
An Investigating committee of
Governor Alvan T. Fuller had much
of this evidence before it, weeks ago,
but it will be remembered, this COM
mittee was made up of two college
presidents and judge. True to the
class that endows them, they found
that while the judge was indiscreet
in conversations outside the court
room, on the bench he was flair and
/ impartial"
Professor Charges Prejudice.
/ A new affidavit was brought here
today from Dartmouth College, the
alma mater of Judge Thayer. 1t was
from Professor James E. Richardson
and told of an alleged statement re-
garding radicals by the Judge. Judge
Thayer, in days gone by was star
infielder for the Dartmouth College
| baseball nine.
Long Conference First.
Before Judge Sanderson agreed on
the exceptions, a conference lasting
over two hours was held in the
judges chambers, Defense Attorney
Arthur D. Hill and Attorney General
Arthur K Reading were present.
When they left the judges lobby
the attorney general said an agree
ment had been reached on the bill of
exceptions as it was to go before the
full bench, anticipating that it would
be signed. The bill had been roughly
drafted at the conference and was
sent to the attorney generals office
for a final draft, to be returned to
the judge for his signature.
Ask Order For Writ.
The bill goes before the full bench
on the question of whether Judge
Sanderson was right in declining to
issue writ of error. If the full
bench sustains him in his action the
fight for Sacco and Vanzetti before
| the supreme court would be concluded
as far as the writ of error is con-
cerned If however, the full bench
/ decides he should have issued the
writ of error a rescript will be issued
ordering Judge Sanderson to grant
the writ Of error and hearings will be-
gin before a single justice, probably
Judge Sanderson.
Case Also In Dedham.
Meanwhile, the situation became
further involved with the filing of ex-
ceptions at Norfolk County Superior
Court, Dedham Attorney Hill
/ planned to go to the Worcester home
Of Judge Thayer to discuss the bill
of exceptions. This bill may reach
the full bench of the supreme court
at the same time as the other bill,
making it possible for the full bench
to handle the whole question at one
sitting.
The governors respite was en-
dorsed by the executive council, al
though two councillors were under
stood to have been against another
delay, and in favor Of going on with
the murder.

Some London RumOrs.

LONDON, Aug. 11.-Belief pre-
walls in political circles here that the
Cosgravc administration will soon be
replaced 8
It is generally conceded that Presi-
dent Cosgrave's administration has
been seriously jeopardized by the de-
cision of the Fianna Fail (Republi-
CAM deputies in the Dali Eireann to
take the oath of allegiance and as
sumo their seats when the Daily meets
next Friday.
1t is reported that President Cos
grave viii resign Immediately after
the Dali convenes, and the laborite
leader, Johnson, will assume the presi-
dency of the council, forming a new
Free State government, in which the
National League Party will be repre-
scented.
Oath an Empty Form"
1t is stated that the Republicans
will not be represented in the new
government, but that the followers of
Eamonn De Valera will be pledged to
maintain the new administration in
power.
The Fianna Fail issued a statement
explaining it's decision permitting it's
members to take the oath of allegi-
ance to the Free State and the king,
which it previously had refused to do.
The statement said the party regards
the oath as an "empty Formally which
is not binding"
DUBLIN, Aug. II. - The Repubi-
can deputies in the Daily Eireann, led
by Eamonn De Valera, today, for the
first time since the establishment of
the Irish Free State, took the oath
of allegiance to the Free State Gov
eminent and the British Crown.
It was the first time the Republican
leaders had admitted allegiance in any
way to the Free State government.
In statement issued previous to
the administration of the oath, the
Fianna Fail had declared that the ac-
ton of the Republicans in taking the
oath of allegiance was ian empty for
mality which is not binding"
The action of the Republicans was
generally regarded as a political move
toward unseating President William
Cosgrave and his cabinet.
Labor Republican Compact.
1t was reported that the Labor
Party leaders have agreed to support
the Republicans in a campaign to
have removed from the Irish Free
State constitution the requirement
that members of the Dali subscribe
to the oath of allegiance.
The Cosgrave government is ex-
pected to meet with defeat tomorrow
on a motion for adjournment, and the
government is expected to resign al
most Immediately.
General elections are forecast fo1
the near future.

One -of the best known clubs in the
National Capital. SO the tale goes. mas
established ban on the speaking
voice over the radio.
Tive boys" are charged with the
dMy OF turning the radio set on ana
off. for the sole purpose of banisnins
from the elaborate loud speaker the
voices of announcers and speakers.
The first time either announcer or
radio orator is heard. according TO
authentic reports. the two boys VIII

completeness with which they main

Now that is exactly the sort or cruz
thousands of radio fans would IKE
to belong to, There are many listeners
who feel and have felt for many
months, that the voice OF the an
nouncer is unnecessary, ana tnat
speeches over radio are redundant.
There is no quarrel. of course, with
addresses of national Importance. The
broadcasting of such speeches IL
duty OF stations, and serves national
need in drawing the people Of the
country together.
The ceaseless chatter, however, OF
announcers and speakers, by and large,
is distinctly another matter. Here,
many feel, the great art and science
of broadcasting has reverted to the
early days of the photograph.
Who is there who does not recall
the first wax records, with the sharp,
decisive and nasal voice of the man
who told one the name Of the selection
and the name of the manufactures,
ending with the unforgettable pro-
nunciation of record!

Perhaps every "listener-in" has
wished. at some time or other, that
his set had switch sensitive TO
spoken words--a switch which would
automatically turn his set off when
the speaking began.
The stations, it must he admitted
do much better in this regard than
formerly. In the early days or pop

sisted on telling the name and COM

fore and after the number.
The call letters and location of the

minutes of music. only to be re-

to know the name OF the station to
which they had listened!
The whole industry revolved
around the log" we were led to
suppose. The sole purpose of radio
broadcasting, we came to believe.
was to permit the owners of radio
sets to feverishly tune In new sta
tons, and then to proudly jot down
the call letters, owner and city OF
the stations so logged.

Harassing the Public.

An almost perfect exhibition OF how
policeman should not act In the per-
Torrance Of his duties as the guardian
of the law was given recently by an
officer in New York. This jealous
traffic policeman, eager to be of service
Go the city in preventing accidents
and arresting law breakers, had evi.
IDENTIFY spent "A duh day. But Just after
niyhtfall he spled an atrocious deed
being committed. A motorist had
stopped at Fifty-seventh street and
Fifth avenue. fiagrantly violating the
parking regulations. The policeman
rushed over, pulled out his watch and
dramatically announced that the driver
was under arrest for parking one MIN
ute. The motorist, with a summons in
his pocket, continued on his way, but
he had not gone more than fifteen feet
when the policeman rushed up again
and handed him another summons be-
cause his tail light did not properly
show all of the tag numbers. The
motorist wiped his brow. asked is
that all?" and started off again. He
had turned the first corner when the
same policeman chugged alongside on
his motor cycle. motioned him to the
curb and handed him third summons
for rounding the corner at fourteen
miles an hour.
With bandits tearing through the
streets and with hit-and.run drivers
adding to the toll of dead and injured,
an exhibition of police inefficiency such
as this is decidedly disquieting. 1t Is
the policemen Of this type who bring
discredit upon the force by the futility
of their efforts in aiding city to fight
crime. The poor motorist who stopped
for one minute should have been told
to move on. if his light was not shin
ing properly he should have been
warned and he never should have been
arrested for rounding the corner at the
conservative speed of fourteen miles
an hour.
Inef6 are HiWdRSd lew VI thiS ~ PC W
policemen in the department OF every
city. They fail utterly to understand
the fundamentals of their duties and
show no tact or discretion in their
dealings with the public. Their idea OF
police work is to drag reputable
business man out of his car and to
send him to the precinct station in the
patrol wagon because his tail light had
burnt out. 1t Is this type that sees
no difference between the parking vio'
lator and the drunken driver who ca
reens down the street at sixty miles
an hour. The power of authority is
his and he means to let the public
know that he possesses it. The sooner
such men are weeded from the force,
the sooner police efficiency win dis
place what appears to be campaign
of inefficiency and public harassment.
