Frame-Up Pamphlet for
SaccO Vanzetti Day

The frame-up system, part OF the insti-
tuition of capitalism in the United States comes
to the fore in the mobilization of the workers
on August %, Sacco-V anzetti day. On that
day tens of thousands of workers will be gath
cred in meetings to commemorate the mar
tyrdom of these two rebel spirits who were
framed by the capitalist government.
These tens of thousands of workers, many
of them strikers and new to the revolutionary
movement, should read simple, brief story of
the frame-up system and especially the story of
Sacco and Vanzetti. This is contained in the
splendid pamphlet by Conlrade Vern Smith,
called The Frame-Up System, prepared under
the auspices of the Labor Research Associa-
ton and issued as No. OF the International
Pamphlets, selling for ten cents EACH
This is one of the best of this series of
pamphlets. The chief cases Comrade Smith
describes are The Molly Maguires, the Meyer
Haywood Pettibone trial, the Lawrence strike
case, Joe Hill, Mooney and Billings, Sacco and
Vanzetti, and Greece and Garlic. Comrade
Smiths study leads to the conclusion that sin
each case the capitalists use all of the tricks
learned in preceding cases. and invariably
spring something new" He declares that "the
workers chief advantage is in widespread pub
licity which frightens away the perjurers and
prevents labor members of the jury from be-
ing easily beaten into line" And winning the
first trial, he points out, is the most important
thing, "It makes all the difference in the
world between going free like Greece and Car
lilo, or dying, even after seven years of strug-
gle, like Sacco and Vanzetti."
Comrade Smiths pamphlet should have the
widest circulation, especially among the new
fresh groups of striking workers on August %.
1t is pamphlet just suited for distribution
and reading on this day. Any worker may
receive this pamphlet by sending 10c to Work.

Army andNavyN News

TO make an accurate estimate Of the
amount of this future increase.
In the event such a proposal would
be enacted into law, 70 per cent of
the officers now on the active list of
the Regular Army would become en-
titled to advanced pay and rank on re-
tirement. This includes practically all
those now in the grades from colonel
to captain, inclusive; II per cent of the
first lieutenantS and 3 per cent of the
second lieutenantS. Two thousand three
hundred and twenty-eight of the 2,525
of1icers now on the retired list Of the
Army would be granted the pay of
higher grades, either with or without
advanced rank.
Another reason for War Department
opposition to this proposal is that II
would Immediately increase the cost OF
the Regular Army retired list by ap-
proximately IS per cent, with larger
indeterminate increase to follow.
The annual physical examination re-
ports of approximately so per cent OF
the commissioned and warrant officer
personnel of the Regular Army have
been received by the War Department
Within the next two months, however
it Is expected that the bulk of these
reports will be in the hands of the

HISTORIC IMPLEMENTS,
 CUR|OS FOUND IN
 WESTWARD ISLANDS

Years of erosion by tapping, surging seas along the shorellne of an island in the Shumagin group to the Westward, have re- vealed to modern eyes signs of an ancient Alaskan civilization, re- ports Captain I. M. Hofstad, of the MS Lark, who, accompanied by his two sons, Arthur and Har- old, has returned to Seldovia from the Westward district with the story of his amazing find, says the Seldovia Herald.
 What gives evidence of a popu- lous settlement was discovered by the party when an investigation was made of a curious lumpy and streaky formation on an embark ment. Some digging was done, bringing to light an assortment of implements of various kinds, made of stone, bone and ivory. There were flint spearheads, stone flashing, cross pieces for tee hand hammer heads, grooved for handle led drills and a curious looking device that appeared to have been used to create flint ignition. The ivory ware had deteriorated into an advanced stage of sponginess.
 The main reason for the West ward trip was to perform assess ment work on copper and zinc claims. He considers his holdings good, and if, and when, the price of copper mounts to some thing like normal status, be- lieves he can operate at profit.
