a oa j 5 ~ ALL WORLD AGHAST AT MURDEROUS: DETERMINATION OF MASSACHUSETTS. MILL OWNERS; COUNTLESS PROTESTS Protest against the sidiaial qauike idee of Sacco and Vanzetti by| the mill owners of Massachusetts has spread from the labor move-} ment of Europe, Asia, Africa and South America into govern-| mental and professional circles. The whole world stands in hor-}| ror at the brutality of the Massachusetts courts and state goy-| ernment, and the callous refusal of President Coolidge to in-| terfere. In the countries close under the thumb of American imperi-| alism, like Panama, public officials try to prevent the people from | expressing their contempt for the American dollar rulers and | their murderous ways. In more liberal countries authorities join | in the protest. In Uruguay, the chamber of deputies has adopted | and cabled to President Coolidge their solemn denunciation of the slaughter arranged by Thayer and Fuller, American citizens abroad, too, are beginning to disavow guilt by joining together and wiring pleas for clemency to Fuller and Coolidge.
