Their Trial:
Their Trial lasted 45 days and was at the height of the Red Scare. Around this time it caused strong emotions with American society that it took only a week to find twelve men to either defend or prosecute Sacco & Vanzetli. The protesters claimed that the trial was not fairly conducted as they were being singled out for their politics and race.

There was increased negative feelings towards immigrants, the idea that USA should welcome all who wanted to come was loosing popularity. 'True' Americans believed Eastern and Southern Europeans brought communist and anarchist ideas with them.
The Red scare created fear and made matters worse. It led to strikes. The strikes were largely a result of terrible working conditions. Industrial workers were often immigrants. The Government were scared this was a Communist revolution.

Americans felt threatened by different nationalities who spoke their own language rather than English. Americans blamed the new immigrants for the rising violence and problems in the cities. Intolerance and fear from the Americans contributed to the restriction of immigrants into America.

In 1921 the Republicans won the election and Warren Harding became President. That year immigration was limited to 357, 000 people.

"The immigration policy of the U.S should be such as to insure that the number of foreigners in the country at any one time shall not exceed that which can be assimilated with reasonable speed, and to favour immigrants whose standards are similar to ours." - The Republic Party describes their immigration policy of 1920.
