AUGUST 6, 1927 Page Three ALL FRENCH HATE U. §. FOR MURDER OF TWO WORKERS Large Strike Protest To Express Horror PARIS, Aug. 5.—Not since work. | ers stormed the Spanish Embassy in Paris a decade and a half ago in pro- test at the execution of Ferrer, shot by Spain, has France been so stirred up by the fate of two foreigners as it is by the case of Sacco and Van- zetti. | Although the Communists have taken the lead in the protesting, opin- | ion is generally unanimous in France | in condemning the sentence of the) two Italians. For the first time since Lind- bergh’s feat, a new campaign of cri- | ticism of America is beginning to ap- | pear in the newspapers. The resent- | ment is especially felt in the ranks | of organized labor, although leading intellectuals and prominent politi-| ’ cians of conservative and reactionary groups are in sympathy with the ef- forts to obtain a respite for the two men. Demonstrations are being organ- ized by labor unions in Paris for Sunday to voice the protest of the! civilized world against the executions | and the Communists have called for | a twenty-four hour general strike for | Monday. Efforts are being made to give the demonstrations an interna- tional flavor. The American embassy, closely | guarded at all hours, is being flood- ed with telegraphed and written per- | sonal appeals to save the condemned | men, The newspapers are publish-| ing many columns showing pictures | of the pair in prison where they are| awaiting death, The Communist Hu- manite publishes a grim cartoon of the electric chair, Petit. Parisiene, the world’s most widely read news- paper, prints a picture of the chair. Another paper cartoons the Statue of | Liberty sinking below the waves.
