$4,000 JOIN SACcO
MEETING IN N. Y.
Communists Denounce
Frame-up System

In the face of score of mounted
police, armored motorcycles, and
several hundred uniformed cops and
plainclothesmen, about $4,000 New
York workers yesterday crowded
the north side of Union Square at
the first anniversary memorial dem
onstration of the murder of Nicola
Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti.
From three platforms nearly so
speakers representing the Workers
(Communistl Party, left wing trade
unions, working women's organiza-
tions and fraternal societies de-
nounced the "rapacious system
which was responsible for the death
of Sacco and Vanzetti," and ex-
planned the class character of the
prosecution of the two Italian i'm
migrant workers.
Communist speakers declared that
the overthrow of the capitalist sys-
tenn and the establishment of a die
tatorship Of the working class alone
would prevent the recurrence of
such brazen frame-ups as was made
upon Sacco and Vanzetti.
The memorial was quickly turned
into a demonstration for immediate
release of Tom Mooney, Warren K.
Billings, the Centralia victims and
the other class-wer prisoners con-
fined in American jails and peni-
tertiaries.
Speakers at the meeting included
Robert Minor, editor of the Daily
Worker; NJ. J. Olgin, editor of the
H m m er, Yiddish Communist
monthly; Bert Miller, organization
al secretary of District 2, Workers
(Communist) Party; Louis Baum,
of the Photographers Union; Roger
Baldwin, American Civil Liberties
Union; Kate Gitlow, secretary of
the United Council of Workingclass
Women; Martin Abern, acting ma
tional secretary of the International
Labor Defense, and large number
of others.

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 23-In d.
rect defiance of local police author
nies who earlier in the day had
caused the doors of the Paine Mem
orial hall to be shut, 1000 workers
last night joined in a huge memorial
demonstration in honor of Sacco
and Vanzetti in the streets outside
the hall.
Benjamin Gitlow, vice presiden-

the Workers (Communist) Party,
who acted as chairman.
Held but a short distance from
the Charlestown state prison where
the two workers were a year ago
executed by the frenzied business
class of New England, the demons
stration was one of the most mili-

Gitlow, reviewing the seven years
of torture thru which Sacco and
Vanzetti were led, declared that the
most effective way to honor their
memory is to build the militant,

URGES NEGROES
TO AID WORKERS
PARTYCAMP AIGN
Communist Champion
Of Race, Says
Moore
Takes Up Challenge

In answer to the challenge made
in an article that appeared in the
New York Amsterdam News by DR..
Thomas L. Harten, pastor of the
Holy Trinity Baptist church Of
Brooklyn, in which Harten declared
that he would give 5000 for the
campaign of any colored man who
is nominated for any office, who
would be an actual fighter for the
cause Of the Negroes, the Workers
(Communist) Party, through its
candidate for congress in the 21st
Congressional District, Richard B.
Moore, yesterday made public a let
ter which discusses the points
raised by the pastors article.
The letter, agreeing with DR..
TIarten's summary of the republi-
can and democratic parties as not
only holding out no inducements for
the Negro but being definitely
against the entire race, claims his
support for the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party Negro candidate, Rich
ari B. Moore.
"Tbe Workers (ComaiUnist) Par
ty," the letter reads, Stands forth
today as the champion of the op-
pressed Negro race and of all other
oppressed groups in the country.
Unlike the republican and demo-
cratic parties, which segregated
and excluded Negroes at the ma
tional conventions, the Workers
(Communist) Party welcomed and
seated "a Negro delegates. These
delegates participated on all impor-
tant committees, many serving as
chairmcn of sessions, and helped to
draft a program of action for the
complete emancipation Of the op-
pressed masses of America.
"The Workers (Communist) Par
ty, in accordance with it's stand for
the complete emancipation of the
Negro race, nominated three Negro
candidates on it's state ticket-Lov-
ett Fort Whiteman for state comp
troller; Richard B. Moore for con-
gress, and Edward Welsh for as
sembly."
The letter concludes with a call
to Harten to support the campaign
of Richard B. Moore if he is as sin
cere as his article implies, and if
he has the true interest of the Ne
gro masses at heart.

Fifteen men on players chest.

When they all climbed off his
heaving breast,
They examined the debris
His shoulders blades and collar
bone
Were a messy mass of meat.
| e couldn't talk or he couldn't
groan,
He couldn't move his feet.
One knee-cap slipped half up his
thing,
The other was split in two.
Of his teeth, he was thirteen shy.
One eye was gone from view.
His right ear slid to the back of
his neck,
His left dropped under his chin.
His nose was gone and there was
instead
Just the place where it had been.
His spinal cord had fallen away,
And tangled in a knot.
Pieces of his vertebrae
Were scattered around the lot.
His right foot pointed East by
South,
His left foot North North West.
Half his tongue was in his mouth
They never found the rest.
With every breathe that he would
whale,
His ribs would crack, crack.
Why prolong the sorry tale
Of one who always fights back =?
At last he awoke with a smile,
And sprang up from the dirt.
"Gee whiz," he said, "for a Nttle
