OF THE REDS NEW TESTAMENT

Numerous rebound copies of the
Manifesto of the Communist Inter-

of the Department of Justice in the
wholesale raids Friday night, though
this thirty-page booklet already was
in the hands of the governmnt Off

This manifsto was adopted by the
congress of the communist interna- :

was signed by Lenin. Trotsky Rakov-

SEVEN OF 80 ARRESTED
IN BALTIMORE RELEASED

BALTIMORE. Md, January 3
Seven of the thirty persons arrested
in the raids on radicals last night in
Baltimore were released today. Sew
eral of those held are regarded by
the Department of Justice agents as
dangerous leaders. Only two women
were taken.
A number of those held are shipyard
workers. Federal agents are of the
belief that disintegration of the COM
munist organizations here had set in
prior to the raid. as they had held no
meetings for several weeks. Evidence
shows. however, that they frequented
each others homes and kept the spark
Of radicaliSm alive.
A large quantity of pamphlets and
books treating of subjects on the
overthrow of the organized govern
ment was found in several homes.
In another house was found calen-
dar on which were pasted pictures
of Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Lux
emburg. famous German radicals
who were killed shortly after the war.

to 4,500. although this estimate was
changing almost hourly.
As more cities reported, it was evil
dent that the number of American
citizens caught in. the raids, would
exceed expectation. Amone these
were many "parlor bo1shevists," who.
it was admitted, would have to be
turned over to state authorities
Only about ten of the states have
laws adequate to handle this class of
disturbers, Mr.. Garvan said.
Pleased With Raids.
Senator Harry New of Indiana and
Senator King of Utah expressed their
sa satiSfaction with the Department of
Justice raids and the rounding up of
the reds" for deportation if they are
aliens, and for punishment il citizens
of the United States
Il can say good-by to every one
OF them without a single regret"
was Senator News comment upon
the aliens subject to deportation. He
was the author of bill to prohibit
the use of the red flag. and his
the bill now pending before the Sem
ate. known as the Sterling bill,
which is designed to punish the ef-
forts of the reds to undermine or
overthrow the government of the
United States.
Senator King was prime mover
in the investigation of German prop
asanda and later of bolshevik prop
aganda in this country. He. too, has
had part in drafting legislation for
curbing the reds. He said that he
was greatly pleased with the activi-
ty of the department, and that he had
urged such steps be taken long ago
He predicted that the Sterling bill
will be passed by the Senate this
week and pointed out that if it is
enacted into law. it will be much
easier to punish persons agitatine
for the overthrow of the United
States government.

WESTLAKE'SN NAME
SEENAS IMPETUS
T0D.C. VOTE MOVE
Will Coordinate Newspaper
Men With Other Groups in
Washington.

The appointment by the executive
committee of the national press COM
mittee for District of Columbia suf-
frase of William B. Westlake as the
executive director of the movement
will, the friends of the organization
say, give new impetus to the effort
The national press committee, COM
posed of representative newspaper
men covering the entire country, will,
quickly to consummation as planned.
Mr.. Westlake, who is president OF
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions and closely in touch with all
of the big civic movements Of the
city. will devote his entire time to
the work he has undertaken.
Discussing the plans of the general
committee. the major feature OF
which, aside from the general OBJ
iect. is to coordinate and bring
about harmony between all the eff
forts of the several interests working
in this direction. Mr.. Westlake said:
Il have often told those who are
active in civic affairs in Washington
that the greatest potential source for
suffrage, but for everything else, was
the large number of newspaper men
assembled here on duty.
Not Organised Heretofore.
"In the past there has been no or
ganiZation of this force by which its
influence could be utilized in behalf
of the nations capital. Many of the
correspondents stationed here do not
consider themselves permanent resi-
hou iof
home people in local matters. 1t has
been a source of regret that many
stories derogatory to the city have
been sent out by correspondents who
suffered the inconvenience which ex-
listed during the war period. and who
perhaps were victims of petty prof
iteering.
when the officers of the national
press committee proposed that 1 take
charge of their publicity campaign
saw such possibilities for good for
Washington in the work that 1 could
Incorporation of the committee in
preparation for the big campaign
ahead. 1 accepted the position of ex-
ecutive director.
May Unite Various Bodies.
1T is my hope that in this capacity
I shall be able to bring into close
working agreement with the press
committee all of the civic and trade
bodies, which support is essential to
the success of the effort to secure
the vote. 1 do not think it will be
hard to show to the people of Wash
ington that in the national press
committee they have a powerful
friend. willing and ready to do for
the people of Washington. and I feel
that great good is bound to come
from and a better understanding and
fellowship between the people of the
District and the small army of news
paper men stationed here"
Mr.. Westlake said that the plans
for the work of the committee are
not sufficiently advanced for further
announcement at this time, but that
many activities are contemplated and
that the people of Washington will
be given ample opportunity to join
with the committee in every way pos
sible to secure the suffrage amend

immigration station the reds" were
marched off in a long column. two by

tail. Federal agents directed the re-
moval of the prisoners to the island.
The governments nationwide blow
against the communists and extreme
radicals was characterized by Chief
Flynn as the "beginning Of the end OF
revolutionary movements in the
United States" He expressed conf
dence that his agents would rund up
the last of the radicals for whom
they held deportation warrants within
forty-eight hours.
THE results of the raids exceeded
our expectations" he added.
