Slim Fein Quarters
Raided BY Soldiers
Government Forces Descend on
's1rish Parliament" Offices
in~Dublin

DUBLIN, Jan. 7.-Sinn F&in head
quarters in this city were raided this
morning by big force Of police and
soldiers. The raiders also entered the
Offices Of the Irish Parliament and
those of the New Ireland Assurance
Society.
Eighty soldiers, armed with rifles
with fixed bayonets, carried out the
raid on the society's Offices. The men,
wearing trench helmets, came in motor
logries to the Offices, where, it is re-
ported, one arrest was made. Michael
Staines, Sim F6in member of Parlia-
ment, is the chairman of the company.
Large crowds assembled and watched
the proceedings in front Of the So
ciety Offices. There was similar
gathering before the Sim Fein head
quarters, where fifty soldiers, accom-
panied by police, conducted the search.
In labor circles it is declared that
Ireland is drifting toward an indus
trial crisis of the first magnitude.

Edwards Framing Bill
For 5 Per Cent Beer
Jersey Governor-Elect Holds
Last Conference Before
Assuming Office

The legislation permitting beer and
wines in New Jersey, which Edward 1.
Edwards, Governor-elect of the state,
promised, began to take form last night
when Mr.. Edwards and his advisers met
in Jersey City. 1t was their last con-
ference before Mr.. Edwards takes Office,
and it was said that they were framing
facture and consumption Of per 's cent
beer and wines in the state.
Proponents Of the bill believe that
the "wet" element in the Republican
party is strong enough to insure its
passage. Their theory is that the Leg
islature has the right to say what bev-
erages are Intoxicating so far as New
Jersey is concerned. On the practical
side of the project they assert that
the passage of such bill would make
it necessary for the Federal govern
ment to contest it instead Of putting
the state government in the position Of
fighting the prohibition amendment.

Quick Spread of Blaze at Doth
Street Apartment House
Forces MANY Rescues

A fire which started in or near the
hall on the ground floor Of five-story
apartment house at 204 West Ninety
sixth Street last night swept through
the building SO quickly more than half
the hundred tenants had to be taken
down ladders by the fremen. Several
women we're perched on window stills
screaming before the tiremen arrived.
The damage was estimated at $4,000.
Father James Curry threw open the
parish house Of Holy Name Church,
across the street from the burned
house, and gave shelter to many. Cots
also were put up in Keith's Riverside
Theater at Broadway and Ninety-sixth
Street.
Mrs. Thomas brennan was alone with
her four children, the youngest year
old, in her apartment on the fourth
floor. Finding the hall impossible, she
got down the rear fire escape with the
children, shielding them with her body
from flames which were shooting from
the lower windows. She was burned
painfully, and was treated by DR.. Harry
Archer, of the Fire Department..

Organize in Scotch Ports,
Aided by U. S. Radicals

LONDON, Jan. 2 (By The Associated
Press).-Bolshevik agitators in this
country are working energetically
along lines similar to those projected
by the radicals in America-namelv.
the overthrow of the government and
the establishment of a soviet form of
government
1T is thought probable that the plans
on this side Of the Atlantic have not
yet reached the point achieved by those
In the United States, but it is believed
that the radicals here rapidly are
reaching the point where they might
seize upon some big labor strike as an
opportunity for starting a revolution
ary movement.
Police Handicapped
While these facts are common know1-
edge to close observers of the situation.
it is said to be impossible for the Brit
ish authorities under the present ultra
liberal laws of free speech to do much
more than watch the progress of events.
The mere fact that an individual or an
organization is allied with the Moscow
lnternationale and is|preaching revolu-
ton by lnnue1do is declared to be in
sufficient ground for police action. In
other words, it is declared the British
broadly speaking, cannot take preven-
tive measures, but must be content to
deal with some actual event.
Soviet centers. backed by American
Communists, have been established in
Glasgow, with committees in va
rious towns in the Clyde district. ac-
cording to the Glasgow correspondent
of "The Daily Mail"
Favor Affiliation
Commenting on this report, London
labor leaders recall that Scottish
branches of the Independent Labor
party have passed resolutions favoring
affiliation with the Moscow Interna-
tlonale. These branches are held re-
sponsible by the labor chiefs for what
ever Communistic sentiment may exist
in Scottish labor ranks.
The next Independent Labor party
conference will be held in Glasgow in
the course of the present year, which
Scottish delegates over those from
other parts of Great Britain. tt is not
believed, however, that they will be
able to obtain adoption Of resolution
transferring affiliation of the Inde-
pendent Labor party from the old In
ternationale headquarters at Berne to
Moscow. This would imply withdrawal
from the British Labor party, with
which the Independent Labor party is
affiliated, a relationship which the
Scottish branches of the latter party
repeatedly have approved.

)ate Assembly Bars Out Five Socialist Members:
Martens Ordered Deported; Eludes Federal Agent
Right of Ballot Violated,' Say
Socialists, Planning for Fight

The five Socialists suspended as men,
bers of the Assembly by that body yes
terday pending an inquiry into charges
that they are opposed to the govern
ment OF the state and nation, attend
ed' last night hastily summoned corr-
terence of the state, county and city
executive committees of their party at
It's headquarters in the Rand School. 7
East Fifteenth Street.
A committee was appointed by the
conference to take charge of the con-
test the Socialists will wage to hold
their seats. Before leaving Albany
the suspended Assemblymen issued the
Following statement:
We regard our exclusion from the
Assembly as organized violence of the
very essence of democracy-the sacred
right of the ballot. It is the denial of
representative government. 1t is the
shameless establishment of an ugly die
tatorship-the dictatorship of naked
plutocracy.
The whole procedure is violative of
the fundamental law of the land as ex
pressed in the Constitution and the
deepest traditions of the nation as
voiced in the Declaration of Indepen-
dence.
1--WE believe in the accepted methods
of the Socialist party-agitation, edu.
cation and organization on the political
and industrial field, and the organiza-
tion of the workers particularly for the
expression of social dissatisfaction
through their unions and the ballot
box.
Advice to Continue
1--WE shall continue to counsel a
transformation of society in the direc-
tion Of Industrial democracy, which can
be accomplished only when the workers
own those things their lives depend
upon, and we shall urge our auditors
New-York tribune., 1920-01-08

and adherents to act in an orderly and
legal manner.
1T is not at all improbable that the
action OF the Assembly is part of
movement Of organized capital. of
which the Democratic and Republican
parties are the political champions. to
discourage the people with the meth
DDS afforded by representative govern
ment and to provoke them to resort to
the methods of violence. We shall do
all in our power to expose this con-
splracy and defeat it's purpose.
Whlie this is new experience for
the five OF us it is not at all new in
the history of the fight for social
progress in its essential nature. Be-
fore and since Bismarck, violence Of
this nature has been employed with
complete failure and the recent his
tory of the world especially indicates
the result in this case
Proud To Be Socialists
"As in the past the result of such
procedure can only be to arouse ad-
dltlonal interest in the principles
which we represent and stimulate the
growtlrof the great movement to which
we have the honor to belong. It's i'm
mediate political effect will be al
together favorable.
"We assert that not only was the
organic law of the land disregarded
in our case, but the rules of the AS
sembly were distorted to accomplish
this lawlessness.
1--WE summon the American people
to save their country from those
usurpers who would make it into a
new czardom. Eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty
1--WE have nothing to apologize for,
as far as our opinions and convictions
are concerned. We are all proud to
be members of the Socialist party"

Anna Gould Air Codmother
Duchess Presents $1,000 to
Needy Aviafors ON Polish Front

PARIS, Jan. 7.-The Kosciusko
squadron Of American aviators on the
Polish front have found much needed
godmother in the Duchess de Talley-
rand, formerly Anna Gould, Of New
York. The duchess has presented
5000 francs ($1,000) to the squadron.
The pilots receive only $26 monthly
and their food and their winter cloth
ing therefore are deficient. When
volunteering for the squadron the
Americans declined the offer Of the
Poles of greater pay, saying that they
would take only the amount the Polish
aviators received. Therefore they
were overjoyed at the spontaneous gift
Of the duchess, which came as sur
prise.
