Suppression of Socialists

From the ReVleW
 The seizing of power by the bolshe- | wiki has called forth legislation aime l
 to prevent the introduction of pol
 shevism here. Although their control 1 of Russia itself is anything but secure,
 the bolsheviki have been boosting that 1 they would make it hot for other l countries, and there is not lacking proof that they have been sending fundi to America and Canada to pro- duce similar revolutionary movements | The sudden springing into existence here of bolshevik periodicals evidences l a campaign of agitation.
 These periodicals, as well as certain native weeklies, have been declaiming against the government for what tncS call it's tyranny in adopting laws di- rected against freedom of the press the socialists have vehemently joined widely split as they now are into right and left wings, At the same time they are doing or trying to do more in the way of censorship than the government ever ventured to do. Before the split the press of the pro bolshevist wing was full of charges that the regular socialist newspapers refused to publish notices of it's meet ings and proceedings, and such charges were not unfounded. The regular socialists now retort that if the lefts ever obtained majority power or rule by force they would ruthlessly suppress all moderate socialist publi- cations. as they have done in Russia
 But whatever the two factions may do and say among themselves, beth assume the role. before the great out side public. of being valiant defer1- CTS of the complete freedom of tae press against what they denounce sS reactionary forces.
 Such professed solicitude for both the abstract and the practical rights of freedom has most touching qua'- ity. and easily imposes upon the lr- sophisticated. No agency, in point of fact. has been as rigorous and arro- gant a suppressor of a free press as this self same socialist party. Before the war 1t was vigorously suppress ing: and the preccdents it then inst:- tuted still remain as precedents to be similarly exercised whenever its lead CTS think it expedient.

SUGGESTS PERMANENT
RED CROSS HOUSE HERE
Miss Mabel Boardman Wants D. G.
Chapter to Construct Building
Big Enough for All Branches

Building Of a permanent headquar-
tiers for the District Chapter OF the
Red Cross, which will be large enough
to house the now scattered branches. Is
recommended by Miss Mabel T. Board
man, member of the executive commit
tee of the National Red Cross, and Sec
one vice chairman Of the District
chapter.
There is much need for such build
ing, it is pointed out. The local chap
ter has grown to large proportion since
the United States entered the war. 1t
has perfected an organization which in
cludes more than 1900 Washington
women There has been somewhat OF
lull tn it's activities since the sign
ing of the arrnistice and resultant de-
c. Ease in demand for Red Cross sup
plies Becarse of this there has been
doubt in the minds of many as to the
future.
1t is the opinion of Miss Boardman
and many others active in the chapters
work that thu present we'll organized
ana highly efficient machine should be
ma 'ntained. They contend that 1t
would he i shame TO, permit this en-
larged organization shrink to its pre-
var inaiguifcance, Ii should not en-
.ireIy disintegrate. they say. The local
chapter. they explain. should at least
maintain skeletoniZed organization
and be ready to produce supplies on
large scale upon a short notice in the
event of a national or local disaster.

LONDON-Disgust at the irritating delays in getting long distance calls is expressed by many London business firms. It is a common experience to wait a whole day for long distance call to mature, but this is not the limit. It took one subscriber two days to get his connection from London to Horsforth, near Leeds. Once he had to make the journey by train, after re- peated attempts to get call through had failed. A London motor firm with a branch in the country says it has given up long distance calls as hope. less. It sends a representative by train
