THE LEAvENwORTH ECHO

reader understands what is meant.
There are 222 radical newspapers
published in foreign languages in this
country at the present time and lO5
,adical nep spapers published in the
English language. In addition, IA
radical newspapers published in for
eign countries are received and dis
tributed to subscribers rCre.
This number does not include the
hundreds of books, pamphlets, and
other publications which also receive
wide circulation, many of them pub
lished in foreign languages.
The number of these radical pub
LEGATIONS and the language in which
they are printed follow: Armenian
/. Bohemian 9, Bulgarian 5, Croatiar
4, Danish 4, Esthonian /, Finnish II
French /, German 81, Greek 2. Hun.
garian 90, Italian 81, Jewish 20, Lc''
fish II, Portuguese 1, Roumanian 16
Slovenian 8, Spanish 8, Lithuanian Is
Polish Z, Swedish 6, Ukranian 8, anc
Yiddish Is.
All ofthese radical publications are
read and translated by the Depart.
ment of Justice in cooperation with
| the Post Office department. A force
of 40 translators, readers, and assis'
tants is employed for this purpose
and daily reports are received on the
radical articles that appear. 1t may
be interesting to point here that the
I. w. w. now circulate 10 papers
printed in the English language an6
10 papers printed in foreign language
These newspapers and publications
more than any other one thing, per.
haps, are responsible for the spread
of the Bolshevik, revolutionary, and
extreme radical doctrines in this coun-
try. Every effort is made to get
them into hands of persons who it is
believed will be swayed by theil
teachings.
The reader or subscriber of radi-
cal newspaper uses his paper not only
for his own information but as a
means of propaganda to educate his
fellow workman and inoculate him
with the doctrine of anarchism, COM
munism, and radical socialism and
thus enlist his services in the revolu-
ton.
From the date of the signing of the
armistice a wave of radicalism APP
pears to have swept over the country
which is best evidenced by the fact
that since that date approximately Sc
radical newspapers have commenced
publication. A large number of these
papers openly advocate the destruc-
ton of the United States Government
and encourage and advise their read
ers to prepare for the coming revolu-
ton.
1t is also a noticeable fact that a
great many of these publications are
practically void of advertising matter
which indicates that hey are receiv-
ing money from outside sources to
further their propaganda.
Gentlemen, | have no fear for the
perpetuity of our Government, but the
exigencies of the hour demand imme-
diate action on the part of this Con-
gress in order that these publications
may be suppressed and that these co.
900 red vipers may be controlled. Our
citizens must not be polluted by these
doctrines. Proposed legislation has
been brought before the Senate, but il
has not yet found opportunity for its
consideration. I am therefore bring
ing to your attention a growth and q
modification of the ideas of several
gentlemen in the following bill:

STATEBOARD
Commission
MEETS TODAY
Hereafter Body Will Be
Known AS State Highway
Commission; Rivalry for
Craftsmanship.

Tallahassee, Fla, July S.-The meet
ing of the Senate Road Department
which was to have been held today
for the purpose of reorganizing under
the new laws. was postponed till
Wednesday on account of the alb
sence OF two of it's members.
Forty Two Hundred.
At this meeting a new chairman
will be elected who will receive a
salary of forty two hundred and ex-
penses and whose headquarters will
be in Tallahassee. He viii constitute
the executive head of the Road De-.
partment hereafter. A secretary wiz
also be employed who cannot be a
member of the department and he will
receive an annual salary Of two thou
sand dollars.

organization there will be state high

er as at present. The latter position
is now held by w. F. Cooke and it
it expected that he will be appointed
10 the new position without opposi
tion with regard to the craftsmanship.

lation. 1t is possible that Ed Scott OF
Arcadia the present chairman, may
retain that position but it is under
stood that it is sought by others. The
chairman under the new law. will
be required to execute a bond of fifty
thousand dollars and the other mem
bers OF the board whose compensat' on
is six hundred dollars per year must
each give a twenty-five thousand dol
lar bond.

the receiving Of delegates from the
