Anniversary of Sacco- Vanzettl Murder

easy to forget the past in the heat
of the battle. In few days August
%, that memorable date, will be
upon us.
On this day the New York Sec
ton of the International Labor De-
tense has made arrangements for a
monster mass memorial meeting
which will be held in Union Square,
(Red Square) at p. m. Invitations
have been sent to many unions ask
ing that they participate in this ex-
preston of sorrow for the death of
our comrades Sacco and Vanzetti
and anger and hatred against the
infamous frame-up system which it
made possible for these two valiant
workers to be murdered.
1t is the duty of every militant
worker to be on Union Square at
5 p. m. on August 22nd. 1t is
Wednesday, work day, on your
way home from your offices and
shops and factories make your pres
ence swell the ranks of New York's
militant labor. Make resolution
now that you will be there and that
your comrades and fellow workers
will come along also.

given to Tammany contractors and last but
not by any means least, by the selling of public
privileges to the giant corporations of New
York
No one is fool enough to think that Al Smith,
who has spent his entire life working up" in
Tammany Hall, and who is now it's graduate
leader is ignorant or innocent of this filthy in
stitution of crime
But now Al Smiths managers have found
the way to manufacture public opinion" to
the contrary. 1t is an ingenious method. Al,
like most of the Tammany politicians, is Ro-
man Catholic Vaguely in the minds of millions
of Rabbits, there is an association between
these two facts: Tammany and Rome.
1t is not accidental that the clownish
preacher, fundamentalst Baptist preacher,
John Roach Straton, becomes the spokesman
for the view that Smith is "the deadliest foe in
America today of the forces of moral progress
and true wisdom" Stratons words are an &C
curate expression of the reaction of hundreds
of thousands of small-town petty bourgeois to
the fact that Smith is product Of the political
sewers of New York.
Therefore it is stroke of genius that led
AIS advisors to shove him into a protestant
church, to speak from the pulpit, to deny the
Baptist preachers accusation.
Madison Square Garden would not do.
No, sir Only church A protestant church.
And from the pulpit. And it must be a Bap-
fist church, fundamentals Baptist church.
The psychological effect of it upon the soft
minds of the millions of Rabbits will be to
bridge the mystic gulf that exists in their
minds between the strange and terrible thing
of Rome and the nice and Beautiful" thing,
the intellectual decay that is called American
professionalism.
The capitalist newspapers will do the rest.
They will lie like hell. In fact both the re-
publican and democratic papers alike would
consider it dad form not to uphold the idiotic
farce
The working class should be made to under
stand these theatricals. They are shams-
plays put on the stage for the purpose of de-
ludng the masses. Straton, the miserable
peddler of Middle-Age superstitution, and
Smith, the sly adventurer who uses equally
his connection with Tammany gutter of crime
and the Roman church (also political insti
tution) these two are equally enemies of th'
working class.
Join your own class movement, build YOU
own revolutionary culture, and fight the yer
min of capitalism, of whatever sort.

calculated to lull the workers into
a false sense of security and drowsi-

But history has indicated us.
Sacco and Vanzetti were martyred
on the altar of the capitalist gods.
The black reaction did set in. The
open-shoppers did go on a rampage
Of lockouts and wage cuts. Anglo

liberals with the charred bodies OF

open shoppers who clamored for the
lives of the rebel shoemaker and

and vanzetti was but prelude to
a hellish symphony of mass murder
and oppression in Colorado, Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio and now in New Bed
ford.
During the fight to save Sacco
and Vanzetti from the claws OF the
Massachusetts mill-barons, the In
ternational Labor Defense was
charged with carrying on too in
tense and vigorous a fight to save
the two workers in Charlestown
prison. Liberals and socialists in
sisted that mass demonstrations
would "anger" those in whose hands
the fate of Sacco and Vanzetti
rested. Only soft words would save
them, they said. We who were old
in the class struggle knew the full

AL Smiths challenge to the Reverend John
Roach Straton is precisely an imitation of Theo-
dore Roosevelt's famous "6-cent libel suit
against the editor of Michigan small-town
paper-and it is precisely the same kind OF
monumental fraud
One of the jokes of future historians will be
the famous incident when Theodore Roosevelt
proved in the Michigan court that he was
mot drinking man." that, in fact, he never
took drink" except-if we remember right
under the sternest orders of doctor
Why is this sort of buncombe worth men
tioning? Only because such incidents show in
lightly dramatic way how utterly and COM
pletely, even ridiculously, the organs of law and
the press are used to put over any sort OF
idiotic lie that may necessary at any par
ticular moment be for the collective benefit of
the ruling class. The theological superstruc-
ture of the capitalist society is built upon and
conforms to the economic structure; the cap
italist class owns the machinery of production,
j the machinery of law, the machinery of the
I press and the machinery of the pulpit, and the
/ schools-and the prevailing public opinion
/ is shaped according to the needs of the ruling
class.
When Roosevelt put over the farce of get
ting verdict from court to the effect that he
was not QfunkaTQ, every newspaper eulIOT
and every other informed person knew that
the whole affair was screaming theatrical
comedy upheld by the blandest and nerviest
sort of "gentlemen's perjury"
And now it is evident that Al Smiths adj
visors are pulling as the World indicates, the
same sort of stunt. There is no one in his
senses that does not know that Al Smith is a
product of the crookedest political organization
ever known in American history. TammanJ

open the fight to release the pris-
oners of the class struggle who are
still in Americas prisons. Mooney

the coal barons in Pennsylvania and
Ohio. Only the other day 225 tex
tile workers were sent to jail in

expect new victims.

The theory is correct. But Marx
ism teaches us that historic events
are no purely mechanical processes:
Historic events do not take
place outside human will; on the
contrary, they occur through the
will of human beings, through
the class struggle, if we deal with
class society. The will of class
is always determined by concrete
circumstances; in this respect it
is by no means free. The will it.

The number of cases is legion.
Every day workers gatherings are
being illegally broken up by the
police, workers illegally arrested

When classes "must," it is mat
ter of will, and wills can be in
fluenced by human actions.
Wall Street, of course, must at
tack the left wing of the labor move
ment, but Wall Street is not an
inanimate apparatus. If we were
more alive, more animated with
protest sentiments, more aggres-
sive, more agile in face of the
enemy, there would be barriers to
the will of Wall Street. !
Wall Street is stronger than we
are. We are not yet a large party.
Strength in public life, however, is
not measured by numbers alone. We
are strong in our position as the
vanguard of the working class. We
are strong in our unity, discipline,
cohesion. We have definite pro-
gram, and definite revolutionary
tactics, which are in themselves a
power. We must throw all the
power that we can muster on the

August %!
This memorable day in 1928
marks the first anniversary OF the
murder of Nicola Sacco and Bar
tolomeo Vanzetti. Yes, it is twelve
months since wave of proletarian
anger and horror electrified the
masses throughout the world. 1t is
one year since New York policemen
mounted on armoured motorcycles
tore through the singing and weep
ing masses on Union Square out
side the Freiheit Building as the
bulletins announced the deaths OF
our comrades. 1t is year since the
state of Massachusetts acting for
the capitalist class in America
flung the lifeless bodies of Sacco
and Vanzetti into the waiting arms
Of the working class, as a warning
that henceforth fighters for the
workers must expect like fate.

the Communists, but we can unite
large numbers of workers who hate
police "law," and loath judicial
"order." We can arouse thousands
upon thousands.
To take an example l see no rea-
son why we should not come IN
throngs to the City Hall, demand
ing that police terror be stopped.
l see no reason why we should not
march through the streets with
placards reading, "Down with Police
Brutalitiesl", Down with the Ar
rests of Strikers and Pickets? |
see no reason why we should not
picket the residence of "our"
smiling Smith and other dignataries
to demand punishment for police and
Judges committing crimes against
the workers. of course, we must not
repeat socialist imbecilities: we
must not beg; we must refer less
to tthe glorious American tradition"
and more to our proletarian class
interests. One thing, however, we
must remember under all circum-
stances: this is our own land;
everything in it must be ours; we
have full right to the most unlimited
freedom, whereas our exploiters
have no right to anything because
they are exploiters.
Let US become permeated by this
conviction; let it become part of oul
mental makeup the enemy will
feel it, and this alone will be ar
important social factor.
