which warns the workers not to be-
little this case, but on the contrary
to strengthen the fight for our I'M
conditional freedom. The policy not
to rely on capitalist justice, but that
only the organized power of the
workers can free us and the others
now caught in the net of bosses jus
tice, is a correct one. 1t is precisely
this policy with which we fully agree
"Sacco and Vanzetti were murdered
by the bosses courts because the
workers woke too late to the fact
that only mass pressure could free
them. The nine colored boys in
Scottsboro who were sentenced to the
electric chair, won a hearing for a
new triad only because the workers
organized in mass protest against
the railroading of these innocent
young workers.
Workers, remember-if we are re-
leased on bail, it does not mean that
the fight for our freedom is diminish
ed. but that the workers must or
ganize their forces ever stronger. We
must build the National Textile
Workers Union, the only organization
which leads the struggle of the
workers against wage cuts. Speed-up
and the worsening of conditions In
this way, and this way only, will we
be able to force the bosses to free us.

''BOSSY" CILLIS IS STILL BOSS
 OF BAILIWICK
Will Run Again for Mayor of NewburypOrt Five Other Cities Make N0mi- nations

Newburyport, Mass, Nov 1S- | CUP)-"Bossy'' Gillis has been nominated for a third term as mayor despite a Newburyport tradition limiting chief executives to two successive terms.
 The red-headed former sailor who has served four years as mayor finished second in the six cornered non-partisan primary election. And in the election, of December 8 he will oppose Gayden w. Morrill,, 45, prosperous shoe manufacturer and former city councillor. t-.,
 The primary vote:
 Merrill, 2724; Gillis, 1903; John F. Leary, 1133; Eugene Twomey. 221; Edward B. Hoyt, 109; ana Henry Kipp, S6. 3,
 Bossy was beaten in every ward except ward 4, where he was ahead by eight votes. Though he hnish- ed 921 votes behind Morrill,, Bossy expressed confidence today that he would be reelected next month.
 Morrill, represents the conserva- tive faction which has vigorously opposed the Gillis administrator from the start. He ran for mayor in 1925 but was defeated.
 If Bossy is reelected his margin of victory doubtless will be ex- ceedingly slender. But he Is ser. wing his current term by virtue or a mere 40-vote majority scored
