by the activities of bolshevists, L w.
W. and radical socialists within its
ranks and that their schemes must
not be tolerated is sounded by Mars
den q. Scott, president of the Inter-
national Typographical Union, in a
letter read at the convention of the
Union Printers League of New Jer-
sey. Delegates representing twenty
one unions were present, also visiting
printers from Washington. d. c., and
vania.
1T is stupid to deny the fact" Scott
wrote, that vicious alien propaganda
has obtained foothold in American
trade unionism. There is more than a
coincidence in the disclosures that
huences which sought to handicap our
government during the war are today
cooperating to disrupt the American
trades union movement"
He declared the ultimate object
OF the one big union question, the
/. w. W. and radical socialists and
bolshevists is the destruction of
unions like ours, the creation of a po-
litical trades union and the substitu-
ton Of general strikes for the order

tration."

men is a criminal and a coward by
every moral law, a social leper and
menace to our country. 1t is unthfnk-
able that American wage earners will
now accept propaganda that includes
the precepts of the radical leaders
of foreign lands, where murder, as
sassination and every unthinkable
brutality is common to everyday ex-
istence."

1t was also necessary as a means of

There was no reason to withdraw
the Japanese troops, added the pre-

of Japan and China in the far east
being far different from that of the
United States or Great Britain. Also,
he pointed out. the future moves of
the bolsheviki in Siberia could not be

Foreign Minister Uchida also said
that immediate withdrawal was i'm
