DEPOBTED HEPS LOSEHflLD ANARCHISTS SENT TO RUSSIA SPURNED BY BOIiSHEVISTS. Emma Goldman and Alexander Bee km an Only Persons of Party Favored by Government. LONDON, Oct. 9. The spectacular welcome accorded at the Russian Finnish frontier to the anarchists de ported to Russia from the" United States early this year was short lived, according to information ob tained from Americans in Moscow by the Associated Press correspondent, who recently crossed Russia. It was learned that the revolutionary pro grammes advocated by the deportees from America, the majority of whom are anarchists, not communists, dif fer fundamentally from bolshevik methods. To the bolshevik, the revolutionist who adheres to the anarchist creed is at almost as wide variance from the Lenine-Trotzky Idea of government as is the reactionary who advocates the re-establishment of am imperial form of government or the creation of a constitutional regime. Few of the anarchist deportees from America, it was learned, have succeeded in obtaining positions of responsibility under the bolsheviki, the majority having been assigned to clerical work in' the various depart ments of the red headquarters at Mos cow. Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman, most prominent of the de portees from the United States, are considered to have received the prize appointment, an assignment to the control' of a train which left Moscow early in the summer for a trip through the Russian provinces for the purpose of gathering and recording statistical and historical data regard ing the Russian revolution. Although this, work carries with it no opportunity for assisting in active ly directing the bolshevik movement, it enables the former . agitators in America to travel into the country districts, and therefore to obtain more food than in Moscow. Propaganda printed in English gup plied to the Associated Press corre spondent in Moscow attacked the an archist idea of communal life, and the exponents of the system were held up to ridicule, the favorite meth od of attack in bolshevik propa ganda. To Americans in Moscow- who have appealed to the bolshevik foreign of fice for permits to leave Russia, so viet officials have stated that Ameri cans in Russia will not be permitted to leave the country until the United States government negotiates with the bolsheviki and offers to release from custody in America -a number of communists supposed' to be detained there. Replying to the statements on the part of the Americans that several hundred revolutionists already have been deported to Russia, the bolshe vik officials, according to statements by the detained Americans to the As sociated Press correspondent) replied that the deportees from America to Russia are anarchists and are not wanted there any more than they are wanted in America.

GERMANY HOLDS AIRSHIP Zeppelin Destined for American Trip Not Surrendered. LONDON. Oct." 9. Special cable.) Representatives of the inter-allied disarmament commission went to Nauen Friday and demanded that the Zeppelin Airship company hand over to them the new giant airship which was specially constructed for servtc) between Germany and America." saye a Berlin dispatch to the Daily News.

On the great plantation of an American rubber company In Sumatra one of the chief difficulties otthe plantation managers is to keep the sources of drinking water free from contamination. The 20,00 natrves em ployed on the plantations show a fine disregard of all the rules of sanita tion that are second nature to an American or European. RED CROSS EXTENDS EOF Yearly Statement Tells of New Health Department. NURSE LISTS INCREASE More Than 15,000 Communities in America Helped Fight Ills by Organization. WASHINGTON', D. C, Oc't. 9. More than 15,000 American commun ities received ad during the year ending last June from the Red Cross in the adoption of precautionary methods against disease and disas ter or in mitigating suffering. Astivities of the Red Cross In this endeavor were summarized today In the second of a series of statements, issued from headquarters here, out lining contents of the forthcoming annual report and showing another phase of Red Cross expenditures from funds given it by its 10,000.008 adult and 14,000,000 junior members throughout the country. During the year the Red Cross or ganized" its department of health service; extended its nursing service to meet a growing demand for pub lic health nursing; taught its first aid to injured courses to thousands; and took the lead in the formation of the world-wide Red Cross societies, with headquarters in Geneva. Many Health Centers Operated. JTie department of health serv ice, organized and at work during the last seven months of the year, was operating 128 health centers at the end of the year. From these radi ated activities designed to improve the health of a community and to prevent spread of disease, while 435 Red Cross chapters engaged ac tively In disease-preventive work. The health department also had 312 employes, serving at 52 public health hospitals, where 30,422 "pa tients received aid. Fifteen hundred new members of whom 603 were women, were added during the year to the life-saving service, a branch of the first aid to injured depart ment, in which a complete woman's corps has been organized. For the nursing service, the year was one of transition from military to civil activities. During the war 20,000 graduate nurses were assigned to war service. Sick nurses were cared for in a convalescent home, built during the year at a cost of U6.000. S Nursing" Enrollment Increased. Enrollment in the nursing service increased from 85,429 to 36,705 dur ing the year, and in an effort to in crease the number of qualified pub lic health nurses the national Red Cross and its individual chapters es tablished approximately 600 scholar ships over the country. Class in struction In borne hygenlcs and care of the sick also increased three fold during the year, the attendance record being placed at 93V93.. Two thousand nurses acting as instruc tors had charge of this. work. The total expense of the nursing serv ice was $129,965. a reduction of $48, 371 over the previous year. ( Among the achievements of the nursing department was the adoption by 35 states of a uniform method of work in connection with the Red Cross. The work of the American society in the world-wide organization was described by the statement as "purely educational." serving to "blaze the trail for the league." Methods al ready worked out by the American society were adopted as the plan to be followed rfrall other countries. NEW SLOGAN IS EVOLVED NO SEPARATE PEACE AVITH GERMANY" IATEST. Head of Democratic National Com mittee Hopes to Rally Sup porters of League. NEW YORK, Oot. 9. deorge White, chairman of the democratic national committee, Friday announced a new slogan adopted by supporters of the league of nations idea for the re mainder oi tne campaign. Jt is, ino separate peace rlth This rallying cry, Mr. White said, is echoed in the hearts of all who fa vitsi (ha Iadviva "The speech of Senator Harding at 1 'For Anything Musical 325 Alder Street Near Broadway C 1 ; ft b IBS ?L Des Moines Verifies the proposal in his speech of acceptance and his vote on the Knox resolution in favor of a separate peace with Germany," the chairman declared. "In the name of dead and Ivilng soldiers, sailors and marines who de livered the finishing thrust to the German army, and in the name of the men and women who labored here at home to support them, the democratic party resents this shameful proposal which can arise only from a desire to truckle to the sentiments of those who sympathized with the kaiser during the war." In a previous statement Mr. White declared "the democrats have smoked Senator Harding put and he now has made the league of nations issue in the campaign clear." "He has apparently scrapped the league, and along with It the Idgo reservations," Mr. White's statement added. "Also, frankly, I am amazed at , Senator Harding's reiteration in his Omaha speech yesterday of 1 his statement, "I have a sympathetic feel ing for Irish freedom. I voted that way in the United States, senate.' "On July 2, 1916, when the senate was considering the Pittman resolu tion asking clemency from Great Brit ain toward Irish political prisoners, Harding voted against it. November 18, 1919, he voted against a reserva tion for Irish self-determination. March 18, 1920, he voted against the Gerry resolution involving the prin ciple of self-determination, and the original senate resolution of sym pathy with the aspiration of the Irish peopee for a government of their own choice." POWER PROJECT IS VAST SUPER ELECTRIC SYSTEM DES TINED TO SUPPLY EAST. Available ' Horse Power of Region "Would Be Trebled Ty Pro posed System. WASHINGTON. Oct. 9. A saving of 30,000.000 tons of coal annually, rep resenting $150,000,000 in value and the labor of more than 30,000 miners and the release of vast railroad carrying capacity for other freight, were pic tured as among possibWties to re sult from the projected eastern, in dustrial region super-power electric system, in an address Friday by W. S. Murray before the Water Power league. - - Mr. Murray is chairman of the en gineering staff assisting the govern ment in developing plans for the project and supervised the electrifi cation of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad. He drew a graphic picture of the enormous industrial advantages prom ised if the great power project is carried out. Stretching from Wash ington to Boston and drawing Its electrical power from both steam and waterpower generation, the system would be the paramount feeder of energy, he said, to all utilities, in dustries and railroads throughout that territory. The situation, in addition to Its man if eat economy in fuel would "treble" the available horsepower of the eastern region which now de, mands 17,000,000,000 horsepower, he said.
