THE DAILY WORKER. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1927 Page Five SACCO-VANZETT! ASHES SEIZED BY FRENCH POLICE “Discover” Buried Law| to Bar Remains PARIS, Oct. 5,—The fiendish ter- rorism of the French police gave a new lesson to the workers when the | secret service seized the ashes of | Sacco and Vanzetti as the steamer | Mauretania, on which they arrived, | } in sight of Cherbourg. The French a thorities, who have been living in ter- | ror of the fury of the workers should | the ashes of Sacco and Vanzetti be exposed in France, “discovered” a bur- | ied law that ashes which are on the way to their final resting place may not be shown on French soil. | Tore Ashes Away. Invading the lower class deck where Miss Vanzetti had been told to expect | them, the French secret service | agents forced Vanzetti’s sister to re- | linquish the urn containing the ashes | which the police declared it their intention to place in a sealed car for shipment direct to Modane, Italy. They then compelled Miss Vanzetti to sign the following statement: | “I affirm that the ashes of my brother and his unfortunate compan- | ion were divided between the Sacco- | Vanzetti Committee and myself. One part remains in America and the other is in my possession and was sealed in my presence by a police commissioner and sent to Modane,| Italy. No other part of the ashes re- | main.” | The committee in charge of the} scheduled Paris demonstration is re- | ported to have demanded that the| sealed car containing the urns be halt- ed in Paris ‘long enough for the me-| morial services to be held.

PEASANT ARMIES MANEUVER: FOES WAR OVER PEKING SHANGHAI, Oct. 5.—While th attention of the Nanking composi- tion government is occupied by the troops of Chiang Kai-shek’s ally, Sun Chuan-fang, lying in battle for- mation just across the river, events are moving rapidly back of both lines. Feng-tien Troops Retreat. Hotter fighting still is going on in the back country of the northern allies. Latest news from the war yaging near Hankow pass indicate that Chang Tso-lin’s Manchurian army is still retreating and that de- feated fragments are straggling into Peking, -which is only eighty miles from the center of combat. These soldiers, despite their reputed excel- lence, are in a desperate frame of mind because of their first real de- feat, and the utter absence of pay ernment has refused the request.) : |likely to loot Peking as to defend it. | Needle Trade Defens |There is widespread nationalist feel- | | dis- | Los Angeles Response to “Dollar Tax” | Six dollars was received by the de- | fense committee from a group of Los | Angeles workers with the following letter: “Dear Comrades: Having | read in.
