He had been found guilty on the charge of murder. Yet no connection was ever made between Joe Hill and the murder of which he was convicted. The adherents of Joe Hill say that he was framed becuse he was 'Joe Hill', labor's poet; because he was a member of the I.W.W, the "Wobblies", the most militant section of the labor movement at that time..Based on the many productions over the years, Barrie Stavis continually made notes for possible changes..This new edition contains over 200 changes."
