FIERCE ATTACKS I FORCE CHANGES IN BILLS DRAWN IN BOTH HOUSES Texan Declares Department

 ATTORNEY GENERAL. Counsel for Labor Asserts

 Constitution
LAWYER ACCUSES
 ATTORNEY GENERAL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.- Return ing of pending anti-sedition bills to the house judiciary committee for modification of provisions attacked as too drastic was indicated tonight as the probably action of the rules com mittee which closed its hearings to- night on the application for a special rule 10 expedite passage of this legis- lation
 The rules committee is expected to make it's decision next week. but committee members said the protest that had arisen against both the Sterl- ing senate bill and the Graham house measure, made it appear necessary that they should be modified either by the judiciary committee which framed the house measure or upon the floor of the house.
 Three witnesses were heard today, Jackson H. Ralston, counsel for the American Federation of Labor and the National Popular Government lea que, opposing, the bills and charging Attorney General Palmer and the de- partment of justice agents with vio- lations of constitutional rights in connection with some phases or the campaigns against radicals; while Representatives Blanton. Democrats. Texas, and Davey. Democrat, Ohio. urged enactment.
 Blanton declared congress must suuelch anarchy" and attacked Sam uel Gompers. president of the Ameri- can Federation Of Labor. and the la Dor department which he said was ''honeycombed with anarchy" lf the sedition law failed. he said. congress would bear the mark of having bow ed to Gompers."
 Ralston discussed the activities ot the department of justice and assert ed four men had been arrested and detained a week without warrants in connection with the bomb explosion at Attorney General Palmer's home here last May.
 "The attorney general has violated the constitution" Ralston said, add ing when questioned, that his subor- dinates have done so and the attor- ney general has had every opportu- nity to know they did it.
 Nobody has been arrested in con nection with the bomb outrage at Palmer's home" Representative John son. Republican. South Dakota, said
 -Four men were arrested and ue- tained a week." Ralston replied.

WILSON REVEALS COMMUNIST
 CIVIL WAR
 PLANS Manifesto of Communists Openly Advocates the Revolution PLANNED TO ACT
 THROUGH STRIKES Party Platform Says Object Is to Destroy Rule of
 Government

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The Com munist Party of America was held by Secretary Wilson of the labor depart ment, today, to be "a revolutionary party" within the meaning of the statutes providing for deportation Of aliens who affiliate with such organi- zaticns. In the specific case of Engle- bert Preis, an Austrian arrested in recent raids, execution of deporta- ton warrant was ordered by MT. Will son, paving the way for deportation of a large number of aliens now in custody and against whom similar charges have been brought.
 The ruling was made in a formal opinion in which the documents relat- ing to the Communist party are dis cussed, and in conclusion the secre-. tary said:
 "The only conclusion is that the
 Communist Party of America is
 an organization that believes in,
 teaches and advocates the oVer-
 throw by force or violence of the
 government of the United States"
 The text of the opinion, in part, fol- lows:
 "In re Englebert Preis:
 Age 31; native of Austria; entered the United States at Port Huron, Mich, November 13, 1915. This is a case arising under the provisions of the act of October 16, 1918. |. "It is alleged that the alien is a member of the Communist Party of America, which is affiliated with the Communist Internationale. The alien admits membership in the Communist Party of America and that it is affili- ated with the Communist Interna- tionale. The sole question, therefore, to be determined by the secretary of labor, is: Is the Communist Party of America such an organization as is described in the act of October 16, 1918, membership in which makes an alien liable to deportation? The Ian guage of the act applicable to this case is as follows:
 "'Section l: Aliens who are mem bers of or affiliated with any organi- Zation that entertains a belief in, teachers or advocates the overthrow by force or violence of the govern ment of the United States Section 2. shall. upon the warrant of the secretary of labor. be NeNAASAA AAASO NuolOhy utpOIltu the manner provided in the immigra- tion act of February 5, 1917.'
 Tt will be observed that belief in, teaching or advocating the overthrow or the government of the United States is not alone sufficient to bring any organization within the scope of the act. There must in addition be belief in teaching or advocacy of force or violence to accomplish the purpose. Bearing that in mind, we may proceed to an examination of the | facts.
 The manifesto and program and constitution of the Communist Party or America and the manifesto of the communist InternationaIe are submit I admitted.
 The constitution of the Communist Party requires that:

SWISS SCORE KAISER

GENEVA, Jan. 24.-The decision of Holland not to deliver the former Ger man emperor over to the allies, has created great interest among govern ment officials and in political circles generally, as Switzerland is in a simi- lar position with respect to a, dozen or more high personages now resid- ing in Switzerland who may be asked by the allied powers.
 The Dutch point of view is approved here mainly on the ground of hospi- tality. Count Hohenzollern's attitude, however, is much criticized. One pa per says: : ''The grand royal European poseur who attempted to dominate the world now becomes a simple military de- serted. Let him alone with his ig- nominy."
