oar. of-The Nation. “Classmate of Coolidge THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, SEPT. 24, 1927 Page Three FRAME-UP OF TWO: AS IN THE CASE OF SACCO, VANZETTI (Continued from page 1) from that pursued by the Boston De- fense Committee.” Carlo Tresca’s speech, while not de- livered in time to be printed in this issue of The DAILY WORKER, will be reported in Monday’s paper, He is understood to be in agreement with! Levine on the necessity of handling the present frame-up of Grecco and Carillo in a manner that will rally the whole working class back of their defense. The Civic Club’s meeting was held at 18 East Tenth street and was pre- sided over by Arthur Warner, editor “What is looked upon by many workers as the beginning of a new Sacco-Vanzetti frame-up is the com- ing trial on first degree murder charges of two Italian workers who are enemies of fascism and Musso- lini’s bloody regime in Italy. They are Calogero Grecco and Donato Carillo who were arrested last Memorial Day charged with mur- dering two fascists named Joseph Carisi and Nicholas Amorroso. The Jast two named were members of the Fascist League of North America, When their bodies reached Italy they were given a state funeral by the Italian government. Dressed With Skull and Bones. When killed they were dressed in the conventional fascist garb, part of which is a black shirt with cross bones and skull inscribed on it. This insignia, it is said, means “Intoler- ance to the enemy, death to the enemy.” . Carisi and Amorroso were bound for the headquarters of the Fascist League of North America where they were to join several hundred of their colleagues and march in the Memorial Day parade, On their way there they engaged in a knife fight with one or possibly two unknown men, who killed them, Held For Murder. Charged with killing these two sup- porters of fascism, Grecco and Carillo were arrested and held on murder charges. While they do not resemble in appearance those who fought the M linites, the fact that they are opposed to the existence of the black shirt government is used against them. Unless the American working class is careful, two more workers will be burned up to satisfy Ameri- can “justice” and “democracy.” Legal Precedent of Use to Millionaires in Tax Case of “Copper” Clark In abandoning its attempt to tax the entire $48,000,000 estate of the late William A. Clark, Montana cop- per king, the state of New York was believed to have established a far- reaching legal precedent today. The state had sought to tax the entire holdings of the Clark estate, although only about $3,000,000 of the total property was physically located in New York. State counsel had con- tended that inasmuch as Clark had made his home here all property, either in New. York or elsewhere was subject to state taxation. Clark had maintained a residence here for 25 years, spending about five months of each year in the city. The state’s abandonment of their case marked the end of thirty months’ litigation. U. S. Fears Peon Might Go Free in Death of American Mine Flunkey WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.—Instrue- tions have been sent the American charge d’affaires in Mexico City that he impress upon the Mexican federal government the danger that a fair trial will not be given the man ac- cused of the killing of an American, Arthur Brewer, employe of a mining company at Guadalajara last June Brewer was a friend of Assistant Sec- retary of State Castle. Reports received by the State De- partment hinted that the accuse: would be probably acquitted. . \ Says He Will Run Bertrand H. Snell, of St. Lawrence County, and classmate of President Coolidge at Amherst College should know “Cautious Cal,” as well as any- body. And he told the Republican state headquarters yesterday that un- doubtedly, in spite of what Cal said about “not choosing to run,” he could be “drafted” t6 serve as Republican | nominee next year. Snell is but one of many who have in guarded and polite language given their old chief the lie recently. Snell pretends that Cal meant what he said about “choosing,” but that word must be interpreted just right. Re-hired at Lower Wages. ANAHEIM, Cal., Sept. 23.—-All the large oil companies are closing down, throwing thousands of oil workers out of employment in Southern Califor- nia following their usual practice of re-hiring men at lower wages. Are You Doing Your Bit for the Big Red Bazaar? peices, eee Workers School to Give | Foreign Born Mastery | of English Language The English courses of the Workers School are designed to aid the workers, and especially the} foreign-born worker, to attain an effective mastery of the English | language so that he may be better equipped for participation in the life of his union, his party or his class generally. The subject matter in the various | courses is drawn from the life and| interests of the workers. The method used develops a maximum of self-expression on the part of the student. Teachers are selected| | not onl yon the basis of their technical equipment, but also on the basis of their contact with the labor movement and familiarity with its life. The courses are carefully graded with six different divisions so as to meet the needs of workers of various degrees of previous train- ing. The object of the lower ele- mentary course (Elementary A) and the higher elementary course (Elementary B) is to teach the pupil as quickly as possible, to read, write and speak the English language. The two Intermediate Courses (A and B) are for those who have already had some instruc- tion in English or have been in America for a long period of time. Advanced English (A and B) are for those who can express them- selves both orally and in writing, | but who wish to perfect their mas- |tery of the language. | For mofe detailed information regarding ‘these courses, see the catalog of the Workers. School which can be secured by writing to Bertram D. Wolfe, director of the school, or by caliing at +the office, Room 82, 108 East 14th St., | New York City. Towists to View Achievements of the Soviet Union With the approach of October 14th, the day the party of American work-| ers sails to Soviet Russia on the} eight weeks tour arranged by World Tourists, Inc., those who have already made reservations are anxiously awaiting their arrival in the. one country which has achieved the rule of the proletariat. More than any individual visitor to Soviet Russia, they will be enabled to witness the achievements of the Soviets. This because of the active participation of the U. S. S. R. Com- mittee of Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries of Soviet Russia. Many institutions and museums of revolutionary interest will be opened to the tourists, who will be welcomed as an official delegation of American workers, Date Approaching. The preparations for the celebra- tions of the tenth anniversary of the Russian revolution are becoming more intensified with the rapid ap- --6 proach of the date. Never before in the history of a people will such spontaneous demonstrations of joy have been witnessed—demonstrations which are not foisted onto the masses by a ruling class with its own inter- est at stake, but which will be a uni- fied mass expression of thanksgiving. In connection with the celebrations, too, the members of the tour will have privileges accorded to them which the individual visitor will miss. If they choose, members of the World Tour- ists group may actively participate in the celebrations; they will have the rare opportunity of expressing their own feelings in conjunction with the similar expression by their Russian comrades. Must Apply Soon. World Tourists, Ine., announce that all applications will have to be re- ceived at their office, 69 Fifth ave- nue, New York City, very shortly. The sooner a definite number of ap- plications are received and the tour will be closed to further applicants, the better will be the accommodatidéns arranged for the tourists in Lenin- grad and Moscow. There is still a considerable num- ber of people who intend to accom- pany the tour but have not yet sent their applications, since there is still about three weeks before sailing. However, those are urged to act im- mediately or they will not be ac- cepted. World Tourists, Inc., exper- ienced the same delay in their first tour, run last summer; at the very last few days they received a large jnumber of applications and these they had to refuse.

Immediately after the return of the explorers, Nobile went to Italy where he was publically feted by Mussolini, and where he issued the following grandiose statement: “I directed the construction of the airship in Italy. I directed the entire technical organization of the flight. I was commander of the airship dur- ing the entire flight from Rome to Teller. I was commander of the air- ship. Everybody on board obeyed’ my orders in all things concerning the flight. “Ray For Benito” “Tt was Mussolini who ordered the flight,” Nobile declared. The idea of using a dirigible in crossing the Pole originated “ with [Italians and the greatest responsibility for the success or failure of the flight rested with the Italians. Amundsen and Ellsworth and the others should have their share of credit, but first of all it should go to Mussolini. Amundsen had the same idea but after mine.” Amundsen in his memoirs just pub- lished in New York tells how Nobile schemed and plotted to have his name associated with the expedition, how he offered the airship free if it would earry the Italian flag—an offer which was rejected. Mussolini In Plot. “Nobile,” says Amundsen, “in all of these maneuvers was trying desper- ately to insinuate himself into a posi- tion of major command of the expedition. Later events on the flight convinced me that this was not merely the product of Nobile’s personal van- ity and ambition—though these were | great enough, in all conscience. I became pretty well convinced that he was also acting under orders from | the Government. They saw an op- portunity to seize the credit.” Amundsen relates how Nobile near- ly plunged the Norge into the ice on two occasions while crossing the Polar regions, and how only the quick work | of Riiser-Larsen, navigator, saved the airship and the crew; while another time he permitted the ship to rise so rapidly that it got out of control.
