RAID ON REDS IS
DELICIOUS FOOD:
FOR POUTICIAHS
Republican Congress. Is Content
to Let Onus for Deportations
Rest on Administration Forces.
By David Atmrebcm '
, (Copnteht, 1920.)
Washington, Jan. . Not every
bddy In the national capltol i dis
posed to look with satisfaction up
on the gramatto roundup of hun
dreds of "Heda" by the department
of Justice, i Insofar .as the move
shows the backbone of the Demo
cratic administration and dsprlves
Its political opponents of the pro
prietary tight of the "Law and
Order" issue, it is, of course, ap
proved by the purely political. In
sofar as the move affects adversely
the chinces of Mitchell Palmer to
capture the Democratic nomination
for the presidency, it meets with
the Approval ot all the friends of
the other candidates Who seem to
see in the action of the department
ci Justice an excessive zeal to do by
psychological Impression in a bis
raid what, .the department might bo
unable -o accomplish by individual
prosecutions.
Under such circumstances the inno
cent are haulel In with the guilty. And
inasmuch as the labor vote and alien
vote has been largely Democratic the
prospect must- be considered of nomi
nating a man who has- shown himself
Inimical to labor first by the Sweeping
use' of the Injunction power in thai coal

"Reds" whose friends among the labor
ing classes are many and will not soon
forget wha they construe as systematic
persecution hot of acts but opinions.
BiHJBMCASS DELAY BILLS
So. while big business and conserve'
tive elements In both the Republican
and Democratic parties win appiauu
1 Pglmer for Ignoring the political dan
gers to himself, the best index ot what
many persons inside and outside the
government really think of the policy
being pursued toward the radicals Is
found in the half hearted expressions of
approval coupled with occasional intima
tions of apprehensions which one hears
as he seeks to get a fair Impression
fcr of the department of Justice's en
terprise.
Before congress, for instance, there
are many unpassed bills relating to rad
icalism. The attorney general has re
newed his request for legislation, Ad
mittedly American cltiaens caught In the
big roundup of "Reds" cannot be de
, ported or prosecuted under existing fed
eral law, unless shown to be in a con
spiracy to use violence In overthrow of
the government. Aliens can be deport
ed, but they :nust be given a hearing.
Their cases are not subject to review
by federal courts, but are entlrelv with
in the discretion of the executive de
partments. .This places the futt bilreeri
of responsibility for any mistake made
to deportthg Innocent persons squarely
0B the ' Democratic aamwistrauon. uid
' grs, which Is Republican, share none
Sot It and thus far has not even passed
, law to. punish American cttiscits for
doing the same things for which aliens
residing In the United States are being
'deported.
BAfDS BEING SURFEISE
' f The purpose of the department of jus
tice raid was to impress upon woura-oe
revolutionists In the United States that
the arm of the, law Would reach out and
jail them or exile them from this coun-
i try. Careful perusal of ail the documents
thus faN adduced makes It a matter of
speculation whether the advertising given
-the "Red" movement by means of the
raid was not harmful in the tense that
it rouses what might otherwise have
' been an Indifferent attitude toward doc
trines plausibly presented In secret meet-
' Inge and street comer orations.
T , It Is one of the interesting sidelights
on the situation that the arrest Of 4500
"Reds" occasioned much surprise in the
national capltol, for it was not supposed
' so many Individuals dangerous to the
' nation's welfare were living In America
' 1 and the undercurrent of opinion was un
questionably skeptical as to whether all
those arrested were really guilty of
much more than soap-box orators have
: been permitted to say in years gone by.
TOO MUCH POWER ,
Senator Borah, who eeems bent on
- being consistent, has announced . his op
position to many measures aimed at
radicalism. While he professes no friend
ship for anarchists he argues that tot-
, erant America ought not to place such
sweeping powers of prosecution In the
government department. His predictions
of oppression of the innocent under the
espionage act were brushed aside when
- the debate was under way, but it be
..cams necessary for President Wilson

In depriving newspapers and periodicals
of second class mail privilege.
The raid which has been made by the
department of Justice will therefore do
one thing so far as Washington la con
cerned. It win bring ont the lines of
cleavage In the debate on the sedition
bills which come up for dlscussiom As
congress ; assembles this ' week, it will
probably split the two- old line parties.
There are Democrats who will take their
stand by! -th attorney general in the
law and order issue, -arguing that in the
national crisis the innocent must suffer
with the guilty U they are tainted with
radicalism, and there are Democrats
of the Owen, type who believe there Jias
been too much restriction, and restraint
and that too much power is being taken
away from the people by congress and
the executive departments.
Inside the Republican party are the
conservatives i Uke . Harding. Lodge,
Mann, Fordney, Longworth and others
who Uke the iron hand type of govern
ment in dealing ith "Socialistic" and
Radical" movements: but there are
also men like Sena'ors Cummins, Borah,

permit the passage of legislation that

have discretionary powers to raia any
body, dwelling on suspicion and arrest
and detain persons who views or opin
ions may happen to be distasteful. The
raid of last Saturday&xclted enthusiasm
In some parts of Washington, but doubt
In others. It Is questionable yet whether
the event is the beginning of an even
more aggressive campaign on radicals
or the big climax Uke the draft raid In
New Tork during the war of a move
ment that will cause another reaction
toward government by sensational raid
and an insistence that every case stand
on its own bottom. 4
HAYSlilClP.
Lowden and Wood, Candidates
for Republican Nomination
- Present at , Chicago' Banquet.
Chicago, Jan. e.-'MU. P.) The
Republican national organization
was "tuned up" today for the 1920
campaign.
The pitch and harmony were es
tablished by National Chairman
Will H. Hays, presidential aspirants,
Governor Frank O. Lowden and
Major. General Leonard Wood, and
several woman leaders at a banquet
here last night the eve of the first
anniversary of the death of Theo
dore Roosevelt.
The speakers were unanimous on one
subject knocking the Reds, revolution
ists and others who seek to overthrow
the American government.
Chairman Hays said there was a rem
edy for "the I. W. W. or what not It
is taken against the wall, standing."
General Wood declared the great Issue
df the day was maintenance of law, order
and respect for constituted authority.
"Ninety-nine per cent of the labor or
ganisations are on the square and want
to run straight," he declared.
He advocated placing labor "Under
American leadership" and taking It out
of the hands of Reds wherever they have
gained control.
"Don't make America the .dumping
ground for the degenerates of the world,"
he declared.
Governor Lowden urged men and
women to take a greater Interest in their
own government so that unrest and dis
satisfaction could be eliminated.
, The speech made by Chairman Hays
was taken as atrnlflcant in that It nut.
ined more explicitly some of the ques-i
tlons on which the Republicans will "go
to bat" during the 1820 fight They are :
A "fair" representation for labor In all
councils of the nation.
Closer relations between capital .and
labor with justice to both and als9 the
public.
Sympathetic help for business during
the economic reconstruction, not antag
onistic curtailment.
Strong repressive measures against all
Reds and revolutionists who seek to
overthrow the government.
Adequate taxes, but none for extrav
agance. Plans for extending payment of the
war debf over a long period.
Strong federal regulation but no gov
ernment ownership or undue federaliza
tion of Industries. . '
Elimination of controversies between
groups or sections as much as possible.
Women speakers backed up the senti
ments expressed by the men leaders.
Mra Medill McCormick declared. "We
must make this an American America."
The meeting of the women's section
and various other groups continued
today, outlining campaign plans.
Berlin Plant Closes
Berlin, Jan. 6. (U. P.) The great

KEYNOTE
FOR
SO
MANAGER ABED
OF FAILING TO CUT
Motion Picture Board Censor
Swears to Warrant for Arrest
of Clarence4 Hill of Lasky Firm.
Mrs.1 E. B. Col well, secretary of
the Portland board of motion pic
ture censors, this morning swore to
a warrant for the arrest of Clar
ence M. Hill, manager of the Port
land .branch of the Famous-Players-Lasky
i corporation, alleging that
Hill failed to make eliminations or
dered by the board in a picture en
titled "The Thirteenth Command
ment," showing at the Columbia
theatre.
Hill, until Saturday, was a member
of the board ot censors, representing
the showmen. Disagreeing with other
members of the board on their deletions
in "The Thirteenth Commandment," he
resigned from the board, declaring that
his pride would no longer allow him to
be associated with an organisation so
"ptnch-bralned and narrow-minded."
HILL TO FIGHT CASE
Hill declares that he will "see the
thing through," now that It has become
a matter for the court, maintaining that
censorship, as practiced. Is discrimin
atory and unfair to motion picture pro
ducers and exhibitors.
Mra Colwell declares that the board
has been entirely fatr in the matter, and
that in directing action against Hill she
is following the only course open to her
in view of the circumstances.
The controversy, which will now prob
ably be threshed out in the courts, start
ed last Friday, when viewers who saw
the film In question put It up to the
hoard of censors for judgment. The
board decided that a lingerie scene, and
also a "close-up" kiss of considerable
"warmth" should be eliminated.
RESIGNS FROM BOARD
Hill, as manager of the exchange
through which the picture was released,
says that he ordered the eliminations
made. Then he resigned from the board.
The picture was shown, as cut at the
Columbia Friday and Saturday and un
til 7 o'clock last evening, when Mrs. Col
well and Miss Lorenzo Dlnsmore, as
sistant commissioner of public safety,
who had been viewing the picture at the
theatre, decided that the eliminations as
made had resulted in a situation really
more suggestive than the original. Then
Mrs. Colwell ordered the pieture stopped.
Manager Raleigh argued that he was
not responsible for the picture, which,
so far as he knew, had been properly
cut, but Mrs. Colwell was firm in her
demands, so the theatre patrons were
advised as to the situation and Raleigh
gave those who cared to stay another
picture in place of "The Thirteenth
Commandment" - To others he refunded
their admission money. He also agreed
to make such other eliminations as Mra
Colwell might ask, so that after further
cuts had been made the film was again
thrown on the screen and affairs soon
were normal.
IBTABIOIT CLAIMED TJNJU8T
"It was manifestly Unjust to me," said
Raleigh this morning, "that my program
should be Interrupted as It was last
night It coat me in cash at least 1500.
Certainly we have no desire to project
any pictures that are contrary to the
morals or well-being of the community,
and it appears rather a high handed
situation that permit? a person to come
into our house and virtually close us up."
Motion picture men generally welcome
a discussion of the local censorship sit
uation, declaring that Inasmuch as there
Is no censorship of the spoken drama,
and as alt motion pictures are passed
upon by a national board of censors,
local censorship is unfair and unrea
sonable. of red move; CHARGE

strikes and more serious . troubles were
laid at the door of Garmaii "propagand
ists." While Dr. Albert's name does not ap
pear among the signers of the mani
festo adopted by the Comrovnist Inter
national in Moscow, and forwarded to
all allied countries snd their colonies by
the Bolshevik!, it is known that he was
present, and. furthermore, that he took
with him from Germany the written
tenets of the Spartaolsts of that counter
and secured their adoption as part of
the communist manifesto.
PITILESS AS STEEL
The name of 'Frits Flatten is little
known to the world, yet officials here
insist he is. the ablest Bolshevist of
them all. Born in Prussia 38 years ago,
today he is a man of the keenest Intel
lect, a man whose mind is described as
functioning "like a piece of steel rna
chinery, and just as pitilessly."
It was primarily through him that the
Russian collapse was brought about,
making it possible for the Germans to
concentrate all their forces on the
Western front In 1918 and deliver what
was to have been the crushing blow to
the allies.
Prior 'to the Russian revolution Leon
Trotsky ' and Nicolal Renin were in
Switserland. The German general staff,
fevlng figured eut the tremendous pos
sibilities incident to internal disorder
in Russia and the Russian army's disin

Decked with leis and bringing back
a priceless ukelele as a memento of
her trip to Hawaii, Mrs. Robert
Thompson, formerly Miss Lucille
Guthrie of Portland has arrived
here on the Pacific Mail liner Ven
ezuela from Honolulu.
Mrs". Thompson, accompanied by
now paralyses Russia, Germany would
at once find herself holding an advan
tage over her former enemies, and the
warning of the German author of
J 'Accuse" (Germany will beat you yet)
would come true. The allies would no
longer be in a position to enforce the
treaty of Versailles, and at the same
time their industries would be so tied
up by strikes and other disorders that
the Germans, already working from 10
to 14 hours a day at reconstruction,
would leave them all far behind.
The communist manifesto signed by
Rakovsky, Lenin, Trotsky, Zinovjev
and Frits Platten at Moscow has be
come the "Red bible" in this country
and copies of it were seised in vast
quantities by federal agents In their
communist raids. It defies the German,
Karl Marx, and Frederick Engels, but
at no place does it have much to say
greatly to the discredit of the Germany
of today.
Therefore, as has been charged in
France, while Germany is ndt encour
aging the spread of Bolshevism In al
lied countries, officials her agree that
she is net discouraging it.
While there is no inclination here to
charge off Iciar Germany with being be
hind the "Reds" of the United States,
Kngland and France, there is a strong
belief that powerful German Influences
"look with favor upon "Red" disturb
ances as advantageous to their cause.
These Influences prior to the peace
congress at Versailles made no secret
of their position and openly threatened
the world with Bolshevism if the allies
treated the central powers harshly.
LEGISLATORS TO TAKE
UP STATE
(Ceatisvei from Peg One.)
the session has been convened and Is
cleared for action. It Is expected that
the bill will be confined as closely as
possible to the mere autnorisation of the
bonds, without going Into the details of
designated roads and general working
arrangements contained in the S10,000,0(H)
bonding bill of the 1919 session. , It is
the desire. In other words, to frame the
new measure more In the nature of an
amendment of .the existing law, as to
the amount of bonds authorised by it,
than In the nature of an extension or
modification of the present highway pro
gram. SOME CHANGES WASTED
But in fepite of this there are rumors
that different sections of the state, not
entirely satisfied with the highways des
ignated for construction In the existing
law, win come in for alterations of that
program. One of the mooted Questions
at the regular session was the. confine
ment of the 1919 law to the program out
lined in the original 86,000,000 bonding
act of 1917.
Different sections wanted routes
changed in 1919 which had been estab
lished in 191T, and the roads and high
ways committees faced a strenuous fight
to prevent this controversy being opened.
Now it Is Understood that some. of the
coast counties desire a change and are

The third road proposition has to do
with the scopo of the so-called . Bean

POWER OF COMMISSION
There is doubt expressed by many law
yers as to the authority of the commis
sion to Issue sufficient bonds under that
act to match not only the government
funds now available, but those which
wUl be available between now and the
regular session of -1921. It is desired to
so amend the Bean-Barrett act that the
authority to match government funds,

definitely and certainly given to the state

for this is understood to be now in

program by reason of its interest to users

troversy over the standard test for gaso
line sold in thetate. The present law
requires that all gasoline sold shall have
a standard specific gravity f 56 degrees,
it Is contended by the Standard Oil com
pany, and the other companies are not
controverting it, that the present law can

cost to the consumer.
BILL BEING PREPARED
The indications are that this contra.
versy will breed'a legislative storm at
the special session, Just aa It did at the

tend that the companies can fnrniah 4h

great inconvenience to them and that
the Oil manufacturers are trying to force
the state to meet their demands without

There are rumors of amendments to

the office of a state oil Inspector clothed
with full authority and equipment to

EIGHT ADDITIONAL
MEN ARRESTED IN
Coincident With Government
Crusade, County Grand Jury
Begins Inquiry as to Aliens.!
With eight more alleged members
of the Communist Labor party un
der arrest, the Multnomah county
grand Jury today started upon an
original investigation of the activi
ties of the radical organization as
it has taken root among many na
tionalities in Portland. District At
torney. Walter Evans declares th!
Jury will probe all phases of the
party's work.
Late Monday and this morning eight
additional arrests were made in the gov
ernment's crusade against .the organi
sation. Among these was the arrest
on Monday of Joseph Laundy, aged 38,
who claims to be an American citisen.
ACTIVE AS RADICAL
Laundy was active In the attempted
reorganization of the Central Labor
council some time ago and has long
been one of the most active men In the
"radical" wing of the council. Laundy
was picked up at Sixteenth and Wash
ington streets by patrolmen Parker and
Drennen and is held for the govern
ment. . 1
The arrest ot .William E. Neff, aged
46. is said to be important to the cam
paign of extermination. Neff, a. meat
cutter and a dtixen, was arrested- at
407 Washington street by' Patrphnen :
Abbott and Drake and is hold for fed
eral authorities. Neff was treasurer of
the defunct . Portland - Labor News,
sponsored recently by the -radical wing
of the Labor council and against whjch
the government is said to have much
incriminating evidence.
NEW ARRESTS MADE
Others drawn into the federal net by
Portland police' are: Robert K. Rice,
American, 65 years old, arrested at 1111
Bast Washington street Monday after
noon; Harold and Jack Haynesj.17 and
23, respectively, taken at J3 Mas6n
street by Patrolmen Drake. and Abbott;
Victor Condover, 24, Turk, . arrested at
114 East Third street north by Patrol
men Parker ', and Drennen Oscar Or
man, 80. American, arrested, at Fifh
and Alder streets. Condover and the
Haynes brothers were released on their
own recognisance shortly after their ar
rests. Those under, arrest who are not na
turalized Americans will suffer prompt
deportation, federal officials declare.
The fact that informations charging vio
lation - of the - state syndicalism laws
have been prepared against all tttode
arrested is said to assure their prosecu
tion by the state should they escape govt
eminent penalties.
GRAND JURY TO ACT
The county grand Jury will first sur
vey the work ef the Communist Labor
party. If It is proved radical all that
will be necessary in future to subject a
member to punishment is to prove his
allegiance to the party. District Attor
ney Evans has stated. -
The rrand iurv will be provided with
a mass of confiscated evidence I droits
investigation. Among the exhlbiUr will
be copies of the Communist Tfews.bfQ
clal organ of the party, published at
Cleveland. Ohio, the party's national
headquarters. From a copy of this
paper the following statements, branded
by Evans as utterly treasonable, are
extracts :
"The Communist Labor party teaches
the workers that they must develop
their own power, abolish the existing
political state and under their own dic
tatorship work out their own problems.
"It deems ballot box campaigns ror
this purpose of secondary importance.
Makes the great industrial struggles its
major campaign.
BE VOLUTION ART M.ETHOD8 URGED
"It considers the existing political
state a ruling class instrument, wnose
sham democracies are useless to the
working class.
"If you want a party that is solidly
based on communistic principles If you
want a party that Is uncompromising In
Its revolutionary, tactics and at the same
time hss a form of organisation and a
policy that make It possible to develop
a working class organisation, militant
and victorious, then you should at once
loin the Communist Labor party. Take
you? stand now with the Bolsheviks and
the- Snartacana in the Third - interna
tional."

organisation In Oregon. . - V : -
