Security League to
Open Double-Barrel
Fight ON Reds Here
Will Ainf Patriotic Propa-
ganda at Loyal Americans
and Socialists to Stop
Bolshevism's Growth
BY BRIGGS

The National Security League out
batting propaganda of un-American
Socialists and Bolsheviki, declaring its
intention of ignoring all efforts to di-
vert it into pointless disputes on &C.
cnomic questions and of educating both
Socialists and Americans. The points
on which Socialism or Bolshevism
would be attacked were specified as
follows:
I. "The consistent attitude of many
Socialists before and during the war
was seditious, anti-American and dis
tinctly and definitely pro-Germap in
purpose and effect. Since the armistice
was signed the outgivings OF many
Socialist leaders have been aimed at
helping Germany to escape retribution
and punishment.
2. "The league characteriZes as un-
American and will combat as such the
principles of any group which forbids
its members to enter the army or the
navy; provides for expulsion of any
member who votes for an army or navy
bill, or for war finance, and requires
every member to vote only for certain
candidates under penalty of expulsion.
3. Heretofore, the un-American So
cialists assumed the attitude of put
ting the defenders of government on
the defensive. Americans had a tan
gible government to defend, while they
lad only untried theories. They and
their brothers in Russia now have a
record of achievement, record of
murder and atrocity.
a. "The published constitution of
the Soviet government and the doc
trines of Lenine show that the Boil
shevist programme includes ideas on
labor control which are absolutely
contrary to the ideals of American
labor
THE National Security Leagues pa
triotlc propaganda upon this subject
will be aimed to reach two classes of
people; first. patriotic Americans who
DO not realize the maleyolence and the
seditious attitude of the un-American
wing OF the parties of decentralization;
second, the rank and file of Socialists
who are unaware of the autocratic
ideas of many of their leaders"

Gambling in Clubs Upheld
Magistrate Corrigan Tells Pc.
lice to Study Court Rulings

Gambling is not a crime, and it has
been decided so time and again by the
highest courts. If man wishes to bet
on ball game or horse race it is his
privilege to do so, and any interference
with him is violation of his rights -
- Magistrate Joseph Corrigan, in the
Tombs Court yesterday, thus ey-
pressed himself when he discharged
twenty-five members of the Goritza So
clal Club, of 251 Elizabeth Street. who
were taken in custody early Sunday
morning, charged with gambling. dur,

Evidence to show that the men had
gathered to collect money for the Red
Cross was given, and Magistrate
Corrlgan criticised the police for an
parent disregard of the decisions by
the Appellate Courts on gambling in
chartered clubs.

Jerusalem Delivered
To Two Cooks

The story of how Jerusalem was
given over by the Arabs, not to General
Allenby, but to the two regimental
cooks, VISA told by Major Allan Bur
goyne at recent gathering of the
Royal Photographic society 1t ap-
pears that the two men had been sent
out to get salad for the officers of their
company, and that to these two British
Tommies the Arabs came and, with
wild gesticuiaVions, handed them the
Keys of Jerusalem. The astonishment
of the men adds to the comedy of a
situation worthy of Gilbert and Sulli-
van. One of The cooks asked what he
was supposed to do with the "blinkin'

Vice-President Opens
Christmas ROllcalI
OF Red Cross Here
Baker Tells Of Ne,c
Tasks of Red Gross

w AsHINGTON, Dec. 10
w Secretary Baker to-day
made this statement in connection
with the Christmas roll call:
prior to the signing of the ar
mistice the work of the American
Red Cross was confined within
home and neutral areas or within
areas under Entente control. Now
its scope is obviously enlarged to
embrace virtually the entire con-
tinent of Europe, together with
great portions Of Asia. The task
which confronts this great service
of mercy is vastly increased by
the cessation Of hostilities, and
seems likely to continue for con-
siderable period. / am sure that
all Americans will wish to put
their hands to the work of healing
and reconstruction, and of the
channels open none is worthier Of
support than this"
