promptly against the so or more al
legged radicals who failed to obtain
their releases last night.
The raids here, personally directed
by Chief William ]. Finn head of the
Bureau OF Investigation of the De-
partment, came as a surprise to the
200 or more persons assembled in the
Russian peoples house in the lower
East Side. The building was sur
rounded by uniformed policemen and
filled with Federal agents before the
occupants realized what was taking
place. On one OF the floors a class
was listening to what the police
termed a radical lecture but all the
students bastened to inform the Of
ficers they were learning English"
Many Beaten
When the prisoners, with several
women among them had been herded
together il was found that many had
received severe beatings from the po-
lice. After the prisoners had been
taken to the Departmnt of Justice Of
fees several trucks were sent to
bring a mass of radical literature
found in the building.
Are you citizen of the United
States?" was the first question asked
each prisoner during their investiga-
tion hurriedly conducted at depart
ment officers. All who could show
proof of citizenship were released
while about so who failed to produce
credentials were held for further ex-
animation.
Federal agents said following the
raid that several dangerous anarch-
lists were among those held and that
some light may be thrown on the
bomb outrage of last June as a result.

HendEen is now playing right guard
instead of Rosenbloom. Morrett and
