BoIshevik Agitators Said to Be
Active in Many of the
Larger Cities.
BUFFALO IS MOST DANGEROUS.
World Revolt Of Seamen, I. w. w. Aim.
Plot to Crush American Mer-
chant Marine Barred to
U. S. Agents.

New York-The trail of BolShevik
agitators preaching the revolutionary
doctrines of Lenine and Trotsky has
been traced across the central part of
New York state by the operatives OF
the Lusk legislative committee. These
men have found conditions so alarm
ing that the committee considers 1t i'm
perative they visit the great manufac-
turing cities of the Mohawk valley and
take testimony as to radical activities.
Evidence has been obtained that prop
aganda being disseminated in that sec
ton comes from New York. Criminal
prosecution will be brought against
those who preach the overthrow of the
government by force.
The committee intends to sit in
Schenectady, Utica, Syracuse, Roches-
ter and Buffalo, which seem to be dam
ger points. According to the commit
tee, highly paid propagandists and lee
turers have been operating among for
eign laborers in these cities for months
in efforts to cause unrest, arouse ha-
tired for employers and convince the
foreigners that the soviet form of gov
ernment is most desirable.
Evidence concerning the activities
of agents of BolShevism in Schenec-
tady and Utica was gathered by ex-
perts employed by Senator Lusk. Most
of the operations of the radicals in
those cities were confined to the for
eign born workers. l. w. w. agitators,
who know the ground we'll, helped in
the work, however. Several papers
from the radical underground press
advocating the immediate overthrow
of the government and the formation
of soviets have appeared
Buffalo seems to be the most dan
gerous point outside New York to the
Investigators. That city Is being used
by the Reds as sort of Canadian
American exchange. Well known an
archists from all parts of the country
have been there lately, working in har-
mony with the Bolsheviki agitators.
1t was there the Bolsheyiki plotted the
Winnipeg labor troubles. Canadian l.
w. W.'s frequently cross the border to
aid in starting strikes and labor dis
putes. According to the information
of the committee, agitators from Buff
falo were responsible for the recent
labor disturbances in Toronto. 1t is
planned to take testimony for about a
week in Buffalo.
1t was intimated that the legislative
investigators contemplate asking the
cooperation of other states in crush
ing the Bolshevik menace. Since their
committee has been gathering evil
dence, valuable information concern
ing the activities of the radicals in
neighboring states, it is thought adj
visable by the legislators to acquaint
the state authorities with the exist
iEg conditions.
