Sending out the instructions con-

be separated from Alexander Berk-
man, her companion of years. Emma
Goldman announced tonight through
her attorney that she had abandoned
her fight in the supreme court to pre-
vent her deportation to soviet Russia
with Berkman and some eighty other
radicals.
Harry Weinberger, her attorney in
o letter to Assistant Attorney General
Stewart at Washington, asked that
Miss Goldman's application for a
writ of error or appeal and release
on bail be withdrawn. He said that
this request was made "in view of the
statement made by your department
and the commissioner of immigration
that Emma Goldman and Alexander
Berkman and other Russians will be
deported within ten days to soviet
Russia"
The letter said Miss Goldman pre-
ferred Jail or deportation ito CON
tinued custody on Ellis island"
The refusal of the supreme court
to delay Berkman's deportation, the
attorney said also had led Miss Gold
man to abandon her fight. He quoted
her as saying that IF Berkman must
go, and the rest will go with him"
Later a statement was issued by Miss
Goldman in which she said:
Il desire to so as soon as possible
70 soviet Russia and I expect the gov
eminent to keep its promise to de-
port Rerkman and myself as well as
other Russians Within ten DAYS. Cit
izenship by naturalization TODAY Is no
protection to any former alien"
She said that the sudden cal ing for
her deportation showed "the hysteria
of the government officials" and that
she did not expect that she would be
given time to arrange her many
business and personal affairs"
CharacteriZing the governments
action as like that of "the car of
Russia" Miss Goldman continued:
Il expect while in soviet Russia to
read shortly of American born citi-
zens being deported from America TO
the Island of Guam or some other
possession of America, de-
spite the constitution which guaran-
tees free speech and free press"
