HANGO. Finland, Jan. 1.-THE o49
undesirable aliens deported from the
United States and brought here yester-
day by the United States army trans
port Buford for transshipment to Rus
sia were taken off the transport this
afternoon and marched to the special
train which will carry them to the Rus
sian frontier. The radicals were kept
between decks from the time the Bu-
ford docked until they left the vessel.
American marines and Finnish White
Guards were drawn up as the radicals
proceeded from the ship to their train.
The party will be kept completely iso-
lated until the frontier is reached,
which probably will be late tomorrow
After the Buford had been docked,
Yesterday at p. m, Alexander BerN-
man and Emma Goldman led process
sion of radicals down the gangplank. A
large number Of persons assembled on
the wharf, gazing curiously at the land
ing The Reds" made up a motley
shrong, their faces being full of curl
esity as to what their future might
be, while there were traces OF anxiety
lest they might be attacked after they
had left the protection of their Ameri-
can guardians. Finnish authorities
will look after the safety of the de-
portees.
Secrecy Irritates Pilgrims
After they had landed Berkman and
Miss Goldman talked willingly with
newspaper men. Asked to give her
opinion Of her deportation, the latter
replied: 1T was melodrama to keep it
secret"
1t was unfair and stupid" interject-
ed Berkman: "You can't kill an idea
like that The Car tried and failed.
de is dead and forgotten"
DO you want to overthrow the
American government ?" Miss Goldman
was asked
You need new government" she
answered, land | hope the election will
provide it."
1t is her intention to return to
America as soon as possible, as she
mas said, so save it," She asserts she
became an American citizen by virtue
o. her marriage to Jacob Kersner at
Rochester in 1887, and declared the
court decree issued in 1909 cancelling
Aersner's certificate of naturalization
was illegal. Miss Goldman was di-
Sorced from Kersner in 1889, but she
contends this did not alter her status
as citizen Of the United States.
Won't Give Up America
