Berlin News BERLIN TALIANS PLAN T0 PROTEST Will Porward Sacco-Vanzetti Kppeal to Governor Fuller REGISTRARS 10 MEET Registrars Issue Notice For Sessions to Revise Caucus Lists—Grange to Hold “Economics Night” Tonight =—Other Items of Interest. Considerable agitation has arisen in this town and especially among the many Itallan residents of Ber- lin, concerning the Sacco-Vanzetti protest which is being registered throughout the country. At a mass meeting held recently in New Britain, a large delegation of Jocal Italians was present and it is stated today that it is probable that a similar meeting will be held in this town and a formal protest sign- ed and forwarded by members of the local Italian colony to Governor Fuller of Massachusetts. Speakers will probably be importéd from out town and Fraternal Hall on .’atminx(cn avenue is pointed out as the probable meeting place of the gathering. Several local Ttallan have voiced their opinion as being in favor of the release of the two men who were convicted of murder and who have gained the attention of the entire nation and countries abroad through the widespread pro- test to the decree of Justice Thayer of the Commonwealth of Massachu- setts, Numerous sidewalk conversa- tions have indicated that the general feeling of the Italian members of the population of this town are unanimously In favor of either the cancellation of the decree of execu- tion or the issuance of an order for a new trial. Iealian forwarders of the movement for a petition to be forwarded from this town state that, in case such a mass meeting was held, it would. without doubt, give voice to some protest of the present activities of the Massachusetts courts. The recent hungqr strike of the two condemned men has gained them many sympathizers in this place and general feeling points to- wards the calling of a sympathy mass meeting in the near future. The Itallan Fraternal soci which is located in town has not yet volced an official protest against the Sacco-Vanzettl case but rumors that the organization would soon take officlal steps towards the forwarding of & petitiop are coupled with re- ports of the coming mass meeting. Tt is thought probable that the lo association would sponsor the meet- ing of the sympathizers of the two men who are awalting execution. Local Italians state that while the anarchistsic feeling in town is ex- ceedingly small the two men deserve appeals from foreign born citizens, regardless of political feeling. Sacco and Vanzetti are both professed anarchists, and former protests Notice is hereby given that the registrars of the Town of Berlin will be in session at the Town Hall on Friday, August 5th and again on Friday, August 12th, from twelve to nine o'clock p. m. for the sole pur- pose of revising the caucus list of said town.
