BIOL SEIEVIKI ARE EVIDENTLY TRYING
NOW TO OVERTHROW GREAT BRITAIN


Glasgow Scotland, and with fixed bzyonets sta
toned about the strategic points Of the city IS evidence
that the British government IS alive to the importance Of
TIE movement which is gaining Roadway IN Scotland and
ireland and threatens to eugulf Wales also.
The movement is described strike, but It is much

raaioa socialism was most prevalent among the ship
workers the Clyde II this very district that most

Balderston's expose and the outbreak which imme-
distely confirmed his assertions quite in line with
