ALLEGE Theft OF
EXPRESS PACKAGES
Two Employees Arrested on

Goods
THINK SHIPMENTS
WERE REC0NSIGNED

In the arrests OF Leonard C. Neeley
and Charles CORY. night agents OF the
Adams Express Company at French
street station last evening by Detectives
Kempski and Riley, the police authOri-
ties are inclined TO think they are on
the way to clear up robberies that have
mystifled the express company officials
for several months.
Il was stated today that the activities
OF certain employees Of the express com
pany will show that goods valued at
$1,000. il not more, have been stolen.
The plan followed, according to the
police, was to have crates Of eggs be-
ing shipped TO various commission
dealers in Baltimore. Philadelphia or
New York from the lower part OF the
Delmarvia Peninsula over the Delaware
railroad reshipped to Neeley and CORY
in this city.
This was done, II Is alleged by the
police, by employees aboard the trains
remarking the consignee slips on the
crates OF eggs or other merchandise.
These goods would be removed from
the train on its arrival and sent to local
dealers and residents.
II is said that SiS crates Of eggs
were sold for $40 by some OF the men
involved.

on the local police force and he and
Cory was held under $1,000 bail in City

Sees NO Menace To.
u. S. IN B0lSHEVISM.
Congressman London, So.
cialist. Says Conditions
Are Greatly Different
NAME CROPPED OUT
OF FRACTIONAL FIGHT
BY The United Press.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3O.-Danger Of
a wave OF Bolshevism in the United
states is a bugaboo with no real exis-
tence, Representative Meyer London,
New York Socialist Congressman, de-
clared today.
Londo.. a native OF Russia and close
student Of Russian affairs. pointed out
that the forces which brought on Boil
shevtsm in Russia were as peculiar to
Russia as the term Bolshevlsm itself.
mo man in his Senses" said London,
can seriously feel that in a country
like the United States, with 300 years
OF political development, with written
constitutions, with frequent elections,
with nothing in common with the pc
culiar state Of affairs which confront
ed Russia, any group or any party Will
attempt 10 follow the methods Of a
revolutionary group which had its
birth in peculiar Russian conditions.
I'VE have no night here for separa-
ton OF state and church. We are not
menaced by any substantial portion Of
The population seeking TO establish
monaTchial institutions.
THE entire situation Is so radically
different that only unreasoning fear and
incompetency to deal with American
problems in an American way can give
any ground for serious thought that
Bolshevism is upon US.
Incidentally ! would suggest that
this session Of Congress should not ad-
journ without repeating the historical
explanation which curbs freedom OF
speech and freedom OF the press"
The name Bolshevism, London ex-
planned, grew out Of a factlonal night at
a Socialist convention In 1908. in which
the majority group was called the Boil
sheviki. the English equivalent OF
which is the 'majorlsts."
Pointing out that the Bolshevist gov
ernment has had TO contend with
forces that no other government on
earth ever faced. London predicted that
when the curtain lifts on Russia. the
world will find that the Bolshevist OF
"a months ago does not exist and that
every effort is being made 10 prepare for
a permanent government. consistent
with the demands OF Russian life"

UNITED Press stan Correspondent

Omitted Press stan Correspondent
PARIS, Jan. 3O-The important ques-
tion OF whether the Anne. lean Fedora
tion OF Labor will be officially repre-
sented at the International labor and
Socialists confer ence at Berne, is to
be settled today A decision was ex-
pecled at a conference Of Samuel Com
peis with British, French and Belgian
laborites who are opposed 10 the in
ternatiOnal conference and want a sep
arate inter-allied meeting.
The situation as now exists is
The American peace delegation has
intlmated rather clearly that It pcefe. S
10 have the American labor represents
tives attend the Berne meeting, because
they know the International delegates
are pledged in every way possible TO
furthe. President Wilson's program.
Gompers, however, not only Is op-
posed TO admitting German and Russ an
delegates to the meeting, but charges
that a great German propaganda fund
has been sent 10 Berne for the purpose
Of influencing the proceedings in IA
vor Of the central powers. When VIII
son talked with Gompers recently he
did not commit himself further than
TO ask whether Gompers was going TO
Berne. The latter than told the P. esl-
dent he had uncovered information here
regarding the alleged German propa-
ganda fund. The President expressed
surprise.
Absolutely ignoring the attitude Of
American labor, the British government
which sent Arthur Henderson and other
labor leaders TO Berne-almost with its
blessing-has arranged 10 receive re-
ports OF the proceedings directly from
Henderson. The American peace dele
gates will receive no such reports un-
less oficially accredited labor repre-
sentatives are sent 10 the Congress. al
though other Americans will represent
the other delegation in Berne. II Comp
ers finally decides to ignore the Berne
conference the American peace delega-
ton will be represented by Major
George E. Berry. former president Of
the Pressmen's Union, who. some time
ago was appointed as "liason oflcer' be-
tween the peace delegates and the labor
representatives.
Some members Of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor party here are inclin-
ing toward the belief that the fact that
the war is virtually over had removed
Gompers' objection 10 meeting the Ger
man delegates. Gompers and his asso-
ciates have been inactive since coming
10 Paris aside from few meetings with
others who are opposed to the Berne
Congress.
Belgian labor delegates declared to-
day they would not meet with German
representatives in Berne until they had
consulted the Belgian labor council.
