THEY cm
BE SAVED!
An Editorial
THE CONSCIENCE oi Amer-
ica is waking up in the case of
the two Rosenbergs condemned
to die in the electric chair;
lt is mo longer a sure thing
that the men who planned this
horrible execution in order to
create l¬ar and hysteria are go-
ing to be able to go through
with it.
Washington's Congressmen
and Senators heard the people:
oice on Monday when nearly
3,000 men and women came
lrom 22 states to urge commuta-
tion oi the death sentence.
These delegations, which in-
cluded Americans of all political
views, told Congressmen and
Senators truths about this case
which they had never heard.
They told them that this was
the rst death sentence ever
handed down in peace time
against alleged espionage agents
in the history oi the United
States. They told them that
leading world authorities, atom
scientists, lawyers, religious lead-
ers, and political gures were in
grave douht about the verdict
a d the trial. They told the Con
essmcn and Senators that th
92 ord of one single man is th
e nire evidence in this case.

D ar l92l~:
'd like this to be a conversa-
tion between me and the reader,
whoever he or she may be and as
I go along I'll tell you, dear person,
92vhy I take the liberty to communi-
cate with you. a
Our government through the in-
stmmentalily of one of its Federal
judgcs Irving H. Kaufman has de-
creed that mv wife and I be put
to death in 45 days.
Almost daily there are individ-
uals convicted of capital crimes
and sentenced to death. But, this is
t re first time in the histoi1' of our
untry, in a civil case, that the
I thorities have set the death pen-
sa y for u conviction of conspiracy
t commit espionage.
The peculiar circumstances are
these that two innocent people are
condemned to death in a political
Irameup. I will discuss ever 1 ele-Inent of this in detail. Particular at-
tention will be paid to the purpose
and motives of the prosecution as
exemplified by their actions and
statements, hy'the propaganda ofinterested parties and only inci-
dentally to the "witnesses uhose
oral testimony against us was the
only evidence. It was of poor
qualitv. unreliable, llf'lt'Ol|'|!l.!|!ll-e , full of extraneous hysteria en-
92ndert-d by the cold war and
a ti-Communist prejudice and still
I was empty. It did not even
svarrant sulnnissiou to a jury much
less have any grounds for a finding
of guilt beyond a rcasonahle
doubt. -
Events have chosen us as the
.priucipals in this case. I hope you
our reader are acquainted with our
background. our experience and
Imow a little about us from the
material in the trial record and the
letters wo have written. 'lln-n It
will be easier to tinderstand our
I actions. At the very nutsel of our
t ial, the district attorney Mr.
ving Suypol in his opeuin ' state-ent to the jury said and I quote
gem the record P. I88 ,"We will prove that the Rosen-
bergs devised and put into opera-
tion, with the aid of Soviet Na-
tionals and Soviet agents in this
country, an elaborate scheme
which enabled them to steal
through David C-reenglass this one
weapon, that might well hold the
lrey to the survival of this nation
and means the eace of the world,the atomic bomb.
In Saypol's lummkllou to the
jur P. I518-I9 of the trial recordand I quote, We lcnow of these
other henchmen of Rosenberg in
this plot by him, by Sobell, by the
Soviet Union and its representa-
tives and by other traitorons
Americans to deliver the safe-
guards of our security into the
hands of a power that would wipe
us off the face of the earth and
desboy its peace."-Iudge Kaufman stated and Iquote rom the record P. 1614-I5,
I believe your conduct in putting
Into the hands of the Russians the
A-Bomb years before our best
scientists predicted Itnssia would
perfect the bomb has already
caused, in my opinion. the Com-
munist aggression in Korea, with
the resultant casualties exceeding
50.000 and who knows but that
millions of innocent people may
pay the price of your treason.
I have gone to the trouble of
quoting verbatim these statements
even though they are complete in-
ventions of those who made them,
are false and not based on the evi-
dence or any sane reasoning but
because they touch on what I am
convinced ls the most significant
factor of this ease. It makes oh-
vious the true purpose of the
govemment. The issue raised is
peace and should be discussed
thoroughl to show how it is reallythreatened and what the roots of
war are.
92Vhat relation does our trial and
death sentence have to this?
Every student of history Imows
that World War I, Wot'ld War II
and the danger of World War IIIstem from the same sour-oe._ Th
existence of world cartels, con-
trolled by finance capital and its
resultant imperialism that in the
normal course of its activities sets
in motion economic and political
forces in the state and countries it
controls that inevitably lead towar. "
Julius Rosenberg then docu-
ments the Big Business control of
Nazi Germany and shows that sim-
llar fort-cs are trying to take
America down the same path!. I-Iocontinues: '
The court wanted me to eon-
fess crimes I did not do, to hearfalse witness against innocent peo-ple and to alow myself to
used as a tool to create anti-Sovi
and anti-Communist propagand
to add to the hysteria and the col
war. I would not allow myself to
be used even for propaganda pur-
poses to increase the tensions be-
tween the Unitcd States and Rus-
sia. Only better relations between
these two countries can benefit the
peoples of both lands and -insure
world peace.
The only documentary evidence
produced by the govemment to tie
us up with this case was a tin
collection can. "Save a Spanish
Iivpnhlican Child" and our lawyer
in summation said hollow, hollow
like the ease against the Rosen-
hergs for in no way can anyoneinfer any connectlm to eespionagfo.
This can was so pas toused to collect funds to aid the
innocent victims of the fascist
butcher Franco. We admit we are
ardent anti-fascists. ,

' On this pagefin its brieiest terms, is the '--t4en is filled with hatred of this war whic- -ecord of what the world now knows as The
osenberg Case.llere are bared the heart and soul of Etheland Julius Rosenberg, parents of two smallsons, ordinary citizens of New York's EastSide struggling to make a living until thefatal day the FBI police knocked at theirdoor. '
From that day on, the tale of horror un-folds and deepens. A terrorized brother,David Grcenglass, invents a fantastic tale of"atomic espionage" which sends his own sis-ter, Ethel and her husband, Julius, to the elec-tric chair, the first time in the history ofAmerica that death is imposed in peacetimefor alleged espionage. There is not the slight-est pieee of e92'idenec to back up Creenglass'miserable story about stealing "the atomic sec-ret," a secret which seientisls have declaredis non-existent. Six !'ears alter the allegedstealing of the "secret," Jreenglass, who fail-to pass a single one of the nine teclmicalC mrscs he took in school, suddenly remem-b *rs" how to draw in loll detail a picture of" re bomb" alter having been in contact withother government 9292'itnes.~:t's in prison. Hisdrawing is called "unwnrl<al>le" by a leadingscience magazine writer. Atomic scientistsridicule the idea oi an "atom bomb" drawing.There is not the slightest evidence of anyltind wliatsoever to umneet the ltosenbcrgswith espionage in any shape or form.' But the pl'0s 'e|ttitm aided by I. EdgarHoover, fills the press 9292ith hysterical ropa-ga nda about a "Soviet sp_v ring" which ma 'so n bring atom bombs falling on New YorkCi '. The judge blames the Itoscnbergs forth Korean war at a moment when the na-'-~-- -~ ~ - ..r..._--._ .-- »
DA'117t!......1- -1.'1:,t 1;4'/- --the govemment refuses to stop. And deais pronounced. In amazing exhibitions, the authorities romise the Rosenbergs that theywill not die if they will talk. If they will,that is, back up the government: lie that communists in America got them into thespy ring" which did not exist.But the heroic ROStllbEI'gS refuse. Theyinsist on their innoeenet. They reveal them-selves to their fellow-Americans and to theworld as made of the purest courage and sin-cerityin devotion to truth. Their letters fromthe death house bring before us the heart-rending and at the same time the heroic, in-spiring portrait of two loving, tender, humanbeings, filled with all the joys and sorrows ofordinary parents, yet unflinching in their re-fusal to trade decency and truth for theirlives as the political police cruelly demand oft rem.
We are printing these words of theirs sothat all persons of good will, regardless ofwhat their polities might be, can join thiscrusade even at this late hour to halt thscheduled execution of the ltosenbergs dur-ing the week of jan. 12.Had Sacco and Vanzetti lived, later jus-tice would have released them frQ;n jail. HadTom Mooney been hanged, his later exonera-tion of guilt would have been useless. HadCapt. Dreyfus died at the hands of his perse-cutors, his later-proved innocence would havebeen in vain. Save the Roscnbergsl America'shonor will be deeply stained if they die. Ifthey die, their torturers will seek new Rosen-bergs wherever decent men and women seepeace, democracy and brotherhood. 4'$. --MILT ON HOWARD.

In a signctl guest editorial print-
ed in the Dqwer Post, Denver,
.lol., The Reverend Rudolph Cil-bert eslts Prhsitlent Truman to
commute the {death sentence fac-
ing the Roscnhergs.
As s lay-roan," he says. "I am
not completely satisfied with the
verdict of guilty." lie comes tn
this conclusion alter having read
the tull transcript of the case, he
says. _
R ling the transcript, he says,
I ' s impressed hy the fact that
the two principal and material wit-
n ses were themselves self-com
i'es.*.e<l spies. . . . The testimony
of the Grecnglasses seems to buildbut their word is e92 idence. It '
conceivable in the light of Amer-
ican iurispruulcnce that e person
should be tound guilty On the
testimony of In accomplice who
had much to gain by turning state!
evidence. It is not conceivable
to me that the death sentenceshould he imposed on thesuch evidence only."
It is not too far [etc to
think that the President will lct
on the conscience of the people-
ii that conscience linds expression
in letters and telegrams. F my
part, my conscience compels me
to request n reprieve tromup to fantastic levels-with nothinge _. ._, _ ,______ v _ ,death sentence.

_ _WI31I_ ALBERT EINSTEIN, the world's mostnoted atomic s ientist, asking President Truman to savethe lives of thefliosenbergs, this modem Dreyfus Case"takes on n'cw rnraaning. It means that every honest Ameri-
can, every man,and woman of good will, no matter whohe is or what policies may be, now faces a duty of con-
lcience. - ~ ' '
It is not only that Dr. Einstein asks for clemency. Healso associates himself directly with the now-famous let~ 1-ter of another of America's top atomic scientists, Dr.;Harold C. Urey, Nobel Prize winner. Dr. Urey-who ouglrtito know about the so-called atomic secret" perhaps more;
than anyone else along with Einstein-flatly.told his fel-low-Amcricans: "1 found the testimonypf the Rosenhergsmore helievahle than that of the Creenglasses. And theCreenglass, David and Ruth, were the sole witnesses giv-ding evidence of alleged "conspiracy to commit espionage. They had nothing-absolutely nothing--to substantiate
their words. '

WHAT WE HAVE then in the case of these twoworld-iaunous scientists is a plea for clemency based ontwo grounds-!lat disbelief in the govemment's case againstthe ltosenbergs; flat denial of the whole atomic secret:yth so hysterically enunciated by the government, Judgefkmg B.

this, they request Presidential commutation of the do th
sentence. - .
I O O
WHATEVER OTHERS may thin about the opin-
ions of Einstein and Urey-in which t ey are joined by
another top American scientist, Dr. Ed vard U. Conden-
it is now unmistalcahly clear tl1T't'lT¬r sh'Ot1lde§T'T5r
millions of Americans of all erectls and aiths a reasonable
douht not only as to their guilt hut certainly as to the death
penalty.
V92ill death solve this case? 9292'ill death contribute one
iota to the security of the U. S.? Jan death be recalled if
new evidence, new facts, arise to support the Rosenbergs
who reaffirm their innocence in the shadow of the electric
chair?
It seems to us that these are the questions which now
must confront the lahor movement. the AFL, CIO, rall-
road unions, and independents with a new urgency they
ls the Rosenberg case unconnected with the fact th.have not lclt up to now. ' Sis
Lal!ors most hitter enemies now propose in Congress th
death penalty for "espionage" in time of peace? ls it a
secret that the employers and the witchhunters can easily
'lassil'y strikes, or any trade union activity in the defenseplants," as "espionage"? And what plant cannot he de-.
'ncd as a f'del'ensc" plant? Are the corpses of the Rosen-
l>crgsfalsely labelled atom spies for Russia"-to be I
warning to all Americans "to keep your mouth shut"?
The hours arc ticking hy for the ltosenhergs. Presi-
dent Truman has until Ian. 20 to commute the sentence.
He may act at any moment if he wishes. Only ve days
would then remain if he denied the clemency plea. Let
all unions act nowl Let the veil of fear he hrolzen by the
demands of conscience. Let every local, international,
every individual rnemher, wire or write to President Tru-
man. visit Congressmen and Senators, write to and visitthe local papers. For America's honor and her lreal/tttz a
n ltoscnhcrgs _inusl not die! /. . ,,,.¢,., H ___>______,-_-0-4*¢_._

EINSTEIN, THE R®$EIIBER923S§ '
' AND U. S. I.A%®hS DUTY
t An Editorial
WITI I DR. ALBERT EINSTEIN, the world's most
noted atomic scientist, asking President Truman to save
the lives of the Rosenbergs, this modem Dreyfus Case
takes on new meaning. It means that every honest Ameri-
can, every man and woman of good will, no matter wh
he is or what his policies may be, now faces a dnty of con-
science.
It is not only that Dr. Einstein aslcs for clemency. He
also associates himself directly with the now-famous let-
ter of another of America's top atomic scientists, Dr.
Harold C. Urey, Nobel Prize winncr. Dr. Urey-who ought
to know about the so-called atomic secret perhaps more
than anyone else along with Einstcinflatly told his fel-
low-Amcricans: I found the testimony of the Rosenbergs
more believable than that of the Creenglasses. And the
Creenglass, David and Ruth, were the sole witnesses giv-
ing evidence of alleged "conspiracy to commit espionage."
They had nothingabsolutely nothing-to substantiatetheir words. _ . . . '
Q!
WIIAT WE HAVE then In the case of these two
world-famous scientists is a plea for clemency based on
two grounds-flat disbelief in the government: case against
the Rosenbergs; flat denial of the whole atomic secret
vth so hysterically enunciated by the government, Judgelt'hg92R. Kaufman and the press. As a oonclu§lbv92fr:>|n

O C Q
WHATEVER OTHERS may thinlt about the 0pin ll
ionslof Einstein and Urey-in which they are joined byanother top American scientist, Dr. Edward U. l0ndon -,it is now un|uistal<ahly clear that there should exist for 1;
millions of Americans of all crceds and faiths a reasonable
douht not only as to their guilt hut certainly as to the death 1
penalty. _ . -
Will death solve this case? 9292'ill death contrihute one
iota to the security of the U. 5.? Ian death be recalled if .
I| '9292' evidence. ue92v facts. arise to support the Rosenbergs 1who reallinn their innocence in the sliadow of the electric ,chair?
It seems to us that these are the questions which now
must confront the lahor movement. the AFL, CIO, rail- 1
road unions, and independents with a new urgency theyhave not felt up to now.
ls the ltoseuherg ease unconnected with the fact that ,Labor's most hitter enemies now propose in Congress th 1death penalty for "espionage" in time of peace? ls it *1secret that the employers and the witelilmirters can easily lelassilv strikes, or anv trade union activity in the "defenseI
plants," as "espi'ouage"i And what plant cannot he le- .lined as a "defense" plant? Are the corpses ol the Rosen-
hergslalsely labelled "atom spies for ltnssia"t0 he 8warning to all Americans "to keep your mouth shut"? ,5 "
The hours are ticking hy tor the ltosenhergs. Presil
dent Truman has until Jan. 20 to commute the sentence. rllc may act at any moment it he wishes. Only ve days Kwould then remain if he denied the clemency plea. Letall unions act non"! Let the wil of fear he hrolten by the ldemands of conscience. _l.et every local, international, ~
every individual member, wire or write to President Tru-h¢wI,92visit Congressmen and Senators, write to ntl visit jthe ocal papers. For Amerir-as honor and hcr hea t
nation, the ltosenhergs must not die! 1>1

has sent aneloqu t opcn letter to john Hersey, author of
The Wall and Bell for Atlano appealing to him to end
his silence and demand clemency for the Rosenbergs. Fol-
lowing are excerpts from Mr. Roy's letter:
Dear Mr. Hersey:
I am quite unaware of your political opinions or re-
ligious beliefs. 1 simply know your books, and your talent
goes to my ht-art. . . . You
have made alive again the
rnartvrtlom of the Jewish
population of Warsaw, ex-
plained the inhuman mech-
anism of racial persecution,
:ho9292"n how the determined
will to fight was hom and
grew within the heart of
the survivors of the mas-
sacres in the ghetto. . . .

people, who has told the reasons of his hopes, and reallirms
his friendship and in whose eyes the crimes of one America
are not sufficient to obliterate the virtues of the American
people-that is why you will allow the French writer to
speak to the Amen'can writer that you are.
By making your voice heard loudly in favor of the
liosenbergs, ]0hn Hersey, you will not only contribute to
get two victims out of their chains, you will also help to
remove the gag which lt 'tpS millions of your co-citigens
silent. What matters most is the life of the Rosenbergs,
hut what also matters is the dignity and honor of those
who remain silent, of those who are afraid.
The ltosenbcrgs must live, but also all Americans who
believe in the depths oi their hearts that the death of the
Rosenhergs would be an indignity, must .tomon'ow be able
to look at themselves without shame. . . .
l hope with all my heart that Julius and Ethel Rosen-
berg live; that the men and women of your country will
not carry the shame of having been accomplices of the
torturers by taking refuge in the dreadful silence of the
frig ened. "P ase believe. dear ]ohn Hersey, that I 8dml

HARRY TRUMAN left the White House without a92t-ln on the clemency plea of Ethel and ]ulius Rosenberg.
He did not order their death nor did he save their lives.
It was the Truman Administration which launched
the frmne-up of the Rosenbergs. lt intended to use thiscase to fan war madness, to use the Rosenbergs as the scape-
goat for the countrys hatred of the Korean war.
But world opinion prevented the Truman Administra-
tion from carrying out the execution, originally sched-uled for Jan. 14. The murder plan could not go through.
World opinion, from the far Right to the Left, won-dered why two people had to be killed on the word of one
man. They wondered why death had to be imposed for thefirst time in American history in peacetime for alleged es-
pionage-not even for actual espionage but for "conspiracy
to commit espionage."
Now the case goes to Eisenhower and his arch-reac-p
tionnry administration. Among those who have been vigor-
ous in their lClIlilIl l for clemency is Dr. Rabbi Abba Hillel
Silver, Cleveland religious lender, who was active as 8COP supporter of Eisenliower. The clemency fight goes
beyond political or religious affiliations.
There have heen some who ll392¬ tried to confuse thefight to halt the crime oi the planned executions by a hue
and cry about mythical anti-Semitism in the Socialist coun-
tries. Certainly, their propaganda should not be allowedto divide and confuse the simple plea that the Rosenberg:
shall not be the lirst in American history to die for an al-
leged crime which they deny even in the shadow of the
electric chair. 5'
Time has heen won. Every hour, every minute is now
precious. Let peoples delegations visit rabbis, ministers,
Negro people leaders, mayors, editors, radio stations, Con-
gressmen, etc. Let trade unions which have voted to
clemency contact other unions, union leaders, and organ-ize delegations to see notables and community leaders. Let
ther be. vigils, prayer meetings, pit.-Kc: lines. -yielp saie the Bosenhergs is to help save not nly
, .madness. 4 -5 ,-two inn out lives, hut to help America resist hysle-riaggdi. , »-1

Three week: 0, IuliusRosenberg wrote oaion letterto his attorney Emanuel Bloch
telling of the experience: which
made him think about the world
we live in. Part of this letter
follows: Dec. 27, 1951
I took 1 part-time job as a
clerlc in a drug ntore on Lenox
Ave. near 125th Street in order
to cam enough to make ends
meet. Daily I walked through
the Negro neighborhood from
school to work. I saw What dis-
crimination meant. Overcrowd-
lng in slums, 25 to 50 percent
higher prices than those charged
in other neighborhoods for the
same items and higher rents.
The store employee in the
neighborhood were all white.
There were many incidents
where the police were charged
with brutality.
One night while I was work-
ing in the store there was an
accident on Leno: Ave. A
speeding bus ran over 1 middle-
nged Negro man and he was
brought into the store bleeding
profusely from his leg that was
almost completely severed off.
It took the ambulance more
than three-quarter! of an hour
to answer this emergency callg,while this man bled to death.

Silverman's views are exactly
the opposite to those attributed
to him hi the Post version.
Thins, the British Labor Party
Itcmber at the Ilotsse of Coin-

Prague trials at the Staiistiy
apy riig was anti-Semitic. lie
also says that it is not the Rosen-
bergs but the United States
~ which is Iln trial helm-r world
opinion, that the guilty ver-
dict is very tlotihtlul and that
the death sentence ts hysterical-
ly extravagant.
An unusual feature in thismitotic of lotimalistic tlecelt tat ll the United Press editor in

he never called to trial.
It went on with the FBI
secretly and illegally bringing

The tact Is that shoe is
