POLICE REGIMENT
PUT ON RIOT DUTY
1000 Men from Ten Divisions To Be
Equipped with Rifles and Ma
chine Guns.

New York city will soon have a regiment
OF police sharpshooters. equipped with
rifles and four machine guns. The mer
will be available for riots or any possible
uprising or radicals.
About 1900 OF the city policemen have
served in the army or navy, but only ,0cl
Of them will be assigned to the regiment
The men will be drawn from the ter
divisions into which the police force Is
now divided, 100 20 a division.
Charles Schofield, acting captain has
been designa ted by Richard L. Erright
Police Commissioner. as instructor in mill
tary tactics. and he will be assisted by
policemen who served with the a e. f..
many OF them as officers. Each man will
be provided with a rifle and steel helmet
weighing two pounds. They will be trained
at the armory Of the Thirteenth Coast Ar
ullery Regiment, in Brooklyn.
Under the present Police Department,
system one-third OF the force IS on reserve

day by Secretary of Labor Wilson. In a
statement he said that under the new regu-
lations immigration officers must inform
aliens of their rights.
Whenever an attorney advices the i'm
migration officer in charge that he has
been retained by some third person or as
sociation as counsel for the alien, the per-
son under arrest must be informed forth
with the facts and allowed to accept
the counsel If he so DESIRES" Secretary
Wilson said. Attorneys, however, who
present themselves upon their own initia-
tive are not TO be permitted to act until
the alien himself expresses a desire for
their services"
Regarding bail. the regulations provide
that In every case where hearing can
not be had Immediately the alien must
be admitted to bail pending hearing. The
fact that an alien refuses to testify in his
own case must not be regarded as grounds
for refusing bail"
1t was intimated by officials that ar
rested aliens heretofore had not had at
all times the full benefit of counsel and
bail and IL was considered necessary 20
modify what might be considered harsh
restrictions.
The modification in regulations resulted
from complaints by representatives Of ar
rested aliens Assistant Secretary of Labor
Post said, explaining that several attor-
neys for arrested aliens had complained
that they had experienced difficulty In
reaching their clients.
The number of arrests recently have
been so large, Mr.. Post said, that there had
been an apparent tendency to conduct pre-
limInary hearings without giving the
aliens opportunity to obtain counsel. Such
practice, he added, is not in accordance
with immigration laws and would not be
permitted to become customary.

accomplished fact months ago, and the
Chicago gatherings did nothing more than
recognize the fact.
''Second-The division was not brought
about by the differences on vital questions
of principles. 1t arose oW>f disputes on
methods and policy.
Sees No Weakening.
'"Third-The separation of the Socialist
party into three organizations need not
necessarily mean a weaking OF the Social
lists. They are wrong in their estimate of
American conditions, their theoretical con-
clusions and practical methods, but they
have not deserted to the enemy. The bulk
of their following Is still good Socialist
material When the hour Of the real So
cialist light strikes in this country we may
find them again in our ranks.
Our quarrel is a family quarrel, and
has no room in the columns Of tie capt.

and comfort to the common enemy. The
objectionable offence of the Simons-Rus-
sell-Spargo crowd was not so much their
sociaI-patriotic stand during the war as
the fact that they rushed Into the anti
Socialist press maliciously denouncng
their former comrades as pro-German and
deliberately adding fuel TO the sinister
flame Of mob violence and government
persecution directed against the Socialist
movement.

tunate but unavoidable. and now we are
through with it. Legitimate constructive

Will make war on France, declares
Wilhelm Dittman, the independent
socialist member of the reichstag.
Dittman, who was one of the Ger
man delegates to the Moscow COM
munist congress, in an article in the
F'reiheit. turns upon bolshevism,
which. he declares, is an impossible
system, which can exist only in Rus
STA, because of the Grass ignorance
of the Russian peasants.
German workmen," he goes on,
who are not two-legged beasts, but
outstanding human beings, would new
er submit to the dictatorship of a
few" He says they have nothing in
common with men who ARE neither
socialists nor communists and gen.
orally have only vague understand
ing of politics, government and So
ciety.
They are most unable to read and
write" Dittman continues, land their
| horizon hardly extends beyond their
own thresholds, as might have been
| the case of the German peasants of
the middle ages. And these men con-
stitute 70 per cent of the entire popu-

Blind passion and high ardor have
localized soviet Russia as land
i where all the wrongs of the prole-
tariat have an end. Hitherto, the ex-
| fusion of soviet Russia from western
| Europe has helped to crystalline and
firmly establish these illusory con-
ception," Dittman concludes.
