Boast OF Early Revolution. I
At the offices of the Department of JUS
tice some of the prisoners boasted Of their
revolutionary convictions and asserted
that the country would be under control
of their comrades within five years. A
few of them who said they wanted to GO
back to Russia informed the officials that
radical lawyers had instructed them not
to talk when arrested. IN most Of the
cases documentary proof of membership
in criminal organizations has been OBJ
tanned.
One prisoner declared that the plot OF
the Reds" to seize New York had reached
such a stage that the municipal govern
ment might be taken over by the Soviet
at any time. Mr.. Francisco, who heard
the story, was so much impressed wher

in which he said-
Now that the League or Nations is no
longer provisional organization, but has
become established as a going concern.
the continued lack of decision as to
Americas course places me personally In
la position of peculiar embarrassment. In
order, therefore, to avoid any confusion
Ior misunderstanding as to my position as
under secretary general of the league. l.
Seems best for me to tender my resigna-
ton. ] do this with deep regret, because
do not like to appear to be abandoning
those with whom 1 have been associated
for the last few months, just at the mo-
ment when their responsibilities and op,
portunities are becoming real.
THE League Is now approaching the
point where it can begin to carry out the
ton, the protection of backward people
the furthering OF International health prof.
ects and all the humanitarian issues upon
which we have been working for the last
six months. l feel sure, however, that you
will appreciate the reasons which have led
up to my decision and will recognize that
liz, as an American, / now feel forced to
withdraw from official connection with
the secretarat, it is not for lack of faith
in the League"

School Officials Tell Lusk Commit

Aiming S. Prall. president Of the Board

yesterday that there was an urgent need
for the enactment of law giving the
Board OF Education full. authority to take
drastic action against public school teach

ACTION "UNWISE,"
SAYS DIR. BUTLER

The action OF the State Assembly in sum.
marily suspending it's five Socialist mem.
bers was unwise, DR. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia University
declared in an address before the Liberty
Republican Club here last night. Though
taken with the highest motives ard for
patriotic reasons" it tended to weaken the
force Of the national assertion that all real
ills in this country may be remeded by
the people through the ballot box. he said
THE legality Of an act is by no means
the only test OF its propriety," DR.. Butler
said I'VE must consider how the act will
strike the public. In this particular cass
the cause Of Americanism was weakened
because the issue was confused in the
public mind to the benefit Of the Socialists
THE action was of such a character as
to enable the Socialist members to assert
that fund lmental American principles OF
representative government were. being
violated. SO that hundreds and thousands
Of non-socialists sprang to their defence
IF men are elected to public office who
are bound by solemn pledge to obey or
take orders from some extra governmental
or extra constitutional authority. they
cannot honestly take the oath of office TO
support the constitution of the nation or
state. If they hold office and are bent

would overturn the American form of gov
ernment, they simply rerjure themselves
when they take the prescribed oath.
ut would be the height Of folly TO
stretch the basic principle Of free speech
ard OF representative government TO cover
such cases as these. Common sense puts
limit on such doctrines and indicates the
point at which liberty passes into very
dangerous license.
There Is really no human cure for some
Of the more extreme types OF foolishness.
These must be left to the slow working
OF the methods OF Divine Providence. In
stead OF sending these intellectual and
moral degeuerates TO Finland or 10 Rus
sia, IL might be worth while TO select some
one or the three thousand Philippine ISL
ands, where the climate Is genial and the
soil rich. and send them thither. with fun
