BY EDWARD w. PickARD.

Race riots and strikes made Chicago
the news center of the country for the
week. and the news from it was SEN
sational and plentiful. Starting in
trfling quarrel over the "cOlOr line"
at a bathing beach. a real race war
sprang up with startling suddenness
and quickly spread throughout the
the negroes live and thence to the
downtown business district. with spo-
radio outbreaks in other regions. Be
fore the authorities got the situation
under control nearly two score per-
sons had been killed and several hun
bred wounded. For several days the
mayor insisted the police could re-
store order. but realization of his mis-
fake was forced on him and he called
on the governor for assistance from
the state militia. Several regiments
at once occupied the ''hlack belt"
law was avoided and thus the city
sawed its face"
There is no doubt that the casualty
lists of the race war were kept down
by the fact that the strike Of the
street car men was cnincdent with
the riots. Not surface or elevated
ear was running and it was compare
lively easy for the authorities to keep
out of the riot district the trouble and
curiosity seekers. The strike. which
had been impending for some time.
was preripitated suddenly by the rad
ical element in the car mems unions. a

ties and the heads Of the unions. be-

the situation good naturedly and made
its way to the business district and

facility. All manner OF motor We

did not have general sympathy. for it

There have been many bitter COM

RADICALISM'S GROWTH DUE

Washington. November I5.-Thc
growth of radcalsm throughout the
country was TO be attributed to in
adequacy OF federal laws against
preaching violent overthrow OF the
government, Attorney General Pal
mer declared tonight in replying to
the Senate's recent inquiry as TO
what action had been taken by the
Department OF Justice to curb ef-
forts to establish a dictatorship of
the proletariat."
Palmer disclosed that the depart
ment has more than 10000 persons
under surveillance as radicals. with
whom it is unable to cope because of
weakness OF present statutes.
The Attorney General urged the
passage Of law to supplement the
espionage act and to take its place

posed act as being the most effective
method OF dealing with sedition. an
archy and radicalism generally which
members of his staff had been able
to draft. Palmer said the bill was
broad enough to sto~ effectually all
attempts to overthrow the existing
order and yet safeguard free speech
and the press.
Activities of the foreign-language
press present another problem which
the department has been unable to
meet successfully, Palmer said. In
vestigations have uncovered 222 for
cign-language newspapers which
have openly advocated changes in
the governmental system by violence
and preached seditton.
English newspapers branded as an
archistic and menacing by the de-
partment's agents number los, Pal
mer said. He explained that these
were much more easily dealt with, as
