 This data, officials said tended Co prove that the nation wide raids had nipped the most menacing revolution ary plot yet unearthed. Officials in- dicated that both groups of radicals were only awaiting opportune mo ment to carry on among other classes of workers the same sort of agitation employed among steel workers and coal miners.
 Significant among other features of the Communist Labor partys doctrine was the enunciation of the following principles
 We maintain that the class -strGS- gle is essentially a political struggle, that is a struggle by the proletariat to conquer the capitalist state, whether it's form be monarchial or democratic republican, and to replace it by a gov ernmental structure adequately adapted to the communist transformation
 "The most important means of cap turing state power for the workers is the action of masses. proceeding from the places where the workers are gathered together-in the shops and factories The use of the political machinery of the capitalist state is only secondary. The working class must organize and train itself for the capture of state power"
 Deportation Laws Weak
 Federal officials deplored weak nesses ln the present laws governing the procedure preliminary to deporta- ton. It was pointed out that in most cases persons arrested as have been the radicals taken in these raids can obtain temporary freedom on bail of s1,o0o. There was an apparent feeling that if bail was granted some of the most dangerous of the reds" gladly would forfeit that amount to avoid de- Il
 keep all under surveillance and ra arrest any who attempt to disappear.
 Late figures received by Mir. Garvan showed that 2.635 aliens were held with evidence which federal agents believed "aS suf1lcient to warrant deportation.
 The total number of arrests was es- timated al close to 4500, although this estimate was changing almost hourly
 AS more cities reported it was e4-i- denced that the number caught in tbe ralds would exceed expectation. Among them were many ''parlor boIshevists who 1t was admitted would have to he turned over to state authorities Only about haI of the states have laws ade- quate to handle this class of disturbers.

 Hearings to Start Immediately
 Deportation hearings will begin as soon as possible, Anthony Caminetti commissioner general of immigration stated tonight. Consideration has al ready been given to the question of a special ship to carry away those or dered deported, he added
 Owing to the number of cases to be ard Cna aArr guilty of radical activities is an i'm possibility, John w. Abercrombie SO lfcitor, of the department of labor de- clared tonight. About 5000 aliens a year are deported normally, he said. and to arrange for the sailing of the Buford with 249 deportees, all the work of the bureau had to be suspended
 The task of deporting over 2000 aliens in one group, he said, would tax the bureau to the utmost
 PayroiIs Loaded With AQitators
 Among the foreign element of the communist and communist labor par ties information described as conclu- sive revealed that payrolls had been loaded" with agitators to be sent sud denly to every fertile field in support of a general strike campaign. During the last two weeks of the coal strike communist agitatorS were discovered to have penetrated practically every mining center east of the Mississippi ENluence showed that in several in stances where miners had voted to re- turn to work, the communists had spread their propa ganda of distrust of the government to such an extent it was said. that few if any miners ac- tually got back to their jobs.
 Attempts to incite the mine workers to violence were the most bold in West Virginia, officials said, serious trouble being narrowly averted there. But all soft coal regions were infested and much of the data leading up to Fridays raids were gathered by secret agents among the miners and com ing in contact with the agitators them selves, it was disclosed.
 Had Enormous SIush Fund
 The raids also disclosed that a "slush fund had been created by the tzE~ parties against whom the government moves were directed. Much of this money. said to, run into several mil lions. had been set aside for use in bailing out adherents of the doctrine in case of arrest for sedition and teach ing of violence.
 Proof also was said to have been ob- tained that in the case of agitators who went among the steel and mine workers. funds for bail were made ave liable in every section frequented by the red agitators Their plans for organization of the workers in support
