 With this formidable array of presidential and vice presidential possibilities and aspirants it will be but natural that politics and camnaign issues will have q pre- dominant part in the compression. al debates. The Democrats will find plenty of opportunities to as- sail the Republican admin.strl- tion and the majority leaders will
 etaliate in kind and point to the party record in appeals to the voters of the country.
 Farm relief alone carries no small amount of political dyna- mite. Taxes and the tariff are subjects upon which the leaders will dwell, and while not strictly political issues, flood control and the Great Lakes-to-the-Atlant waterway are certain to draw sharp political lines among tho varying shades of opinion on Capi- tol Hill.
 The latest turns in the oil scan dal leave ample room for the re- viving of that subject, which was dwelt upon at great length dur ing the 1924 presidential cam paign.

REIGN OF Terror
AGAINST WORKERS
RACES IN HANK0W

HANKOW, July 28.-During the
past three days the armed forces of
Wuchang (Hankow) have occupied
the premises of 26 trade unions, ex-
PEELED the officials therefrom, seized
documents and everything they could
lay their .vandal hands upon.
Against these dastardly raids and
suppressions of the labor movement
the Hueph provincial trade council
protested to the Central Committee of
the Kumonintang and the Wuhan gov
ernment demanding that the declara-
tions wherein workers and peasants
organizations were promised protec-
tion and their rights be recognized by
strictly observed.
This demand will be ignored, but it
serves to expose to the masses the
low stage to which the Wuhan govern
ment has sunk.
Worse Than Chang kai-shek.
Throughout Human the most ruth
less suppression is practiced against
the revolution. The Communist Party
and the workers and peasants or
CARNATIONS have been raided, their
headquarters closed and thousands
upon thousands murdered by the
agents Of the Wuhan (Hankow) gov
srnment. Arrivals from that province
declare that the terror carried out by
the new authorities in Human is still

1t was against the secret hearings
Of the advisory board that Sacco and
Vanzetti declared their hunger strike
Prison officials admit that Sacco and
Vanzetti have grown considerably
weaker as a result and are already
making plans to feed them forcibly.
This is Sacco's twelfth day with
out food. Vanzetti has gone without
food for the same length of time, ex-
cept for one meal and one cup of
coffee.
Governor Fuller held a conference
with members of the board this after
noon at the State House presumably
to discuss the boards report. The
conference was held behind closed
doors.
Witness Declares Sacco Innocent.
Further evidence that Sacco and
Vanzetti are free of the crime for
which they have been sentenced to
death was offered when Antonio Den
tamaro, editor of the United Amer
lea, a New York publication, in an
hours conference with Gov. Fuller to-
day told the chief executive that he
was with Sacco at pastry shop at
North Square, Boston, at 2:90 on
the afternoon of the murder in Brain
tree. Dentamaro had been attending
banquet in Boston.
He remembered Sacco, who did not
attend the banquet, he said, because
he came from Puglie, Italy, the region
in which Dantamaro was born. He
was with Sacco for about an hour, he
said.
Dentamaro, who testified at the
Dedham trial, had been asked by the
governor to come from New York and
tell him his story. The editor de-
clared he was not radical.
Death House Closer.
Warden William Hendry of states
prison, where Sacco and Vanzetti are
confined and are on a hunger strike,
was caller at the attorney generals
office.
The warden, it was learned, was
given an opinion that under the law
it is within his discretion to place
Sacco and Vanzetti in the death house
any time before the electrocution date,
August 10th.
Final pleas in behalf of Nicola
Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti will
be made before Governor Alvan T.
Fuller beginning at a. m. tomorrow
by Attorney William G. Thompson.
Attorney Thompson made this an
nouncement at the state house this
afternoon when he called to secure
several papers.
Governor Fuller left for Camp
Devens to review the National Guard
troops, refusing before he departed
