clusion of Victor Berger last week
'smacked too much Of lynch law and
established vicious and dangerous prece-

that mo man ever had fairer hearing
by legislative body than Berger"
He was permitted to put in any evil

REDS PREy|NG ON
ENLISTED MEN IN
NAVAL BARRACKS
Captain Stone, of Bay Ridge
Station, Tells of Need for
Club in City.

Enlisted men of the United States Navy
at the Bay Ridge Naval Station and other
barracks have been asked to form them
selves into Soviets and have been fully in
structed by agents to the Bolsheviki as to
the method of procedure. said Captain j.
p. Stone, commandant of the Bay Ridge
station in speaking to more than one hun
dred prominent women at the Navy Club,
No. Is East Forty-first street yesterday
Afternoon. Literature of the reds has been
scattered throughout the station, he said,
and many of the men had been found
reading it.
eve attempted TO check the movement
in two ways" Captain Stone declared.
First we confiscated all the literature
we could find. and then we appealed to
the intelligence of the men. But the fact
cannot be lodged that agents of the reds
have attempted to spread the seeds OF
Bolshevism among the enlisted men of the
navy. Commanders of other stations, have
told me of similar experiences.
This attempt TO disrupt the morale OF
the American Navy makes a permanent
Navy Club an absolute necessity. If the
men have no home to which they can go
when in New York they will be picked up
by the reds. made a fuss over and filled
with discordant doctrines And i can say
positively that If New York is to have a
permanent Navy Club it must be fur
nished by YOU, for ! know the government
will not furnish such an institution
The meeting was held to further plans
for a drive for 10000 needed to perpetu-
ate the Navy Club. which during the war
had quarters in Fifth avenue near Forty
second street.
CAPTAIN stone also emphasized the dan
ger to the navy OF failing to check traf-
fickers in vice who prey on the enlisted
men.
"Vice Is made attractive to the men
decorated in such a way that Il is hard to
resist" said the Captain. "If the navy is
to maintain its high degree of efficiency
an efficiency brought about through the
treatment of the sailors during the war
they must be given this club here. II
New York takes the lead, every big sea-
port city in this country will establish
similar clubs. with membership in one

CHURCH LOYAL TO

BISHOP BURCH

The Right Rev. Charles s. Burch.
Bishop of New York. speaking at the
dinner Of the Holland Society last night
at the Waldorf-Astoria, referred to the
charges of un-Americanism which had
been made against minister Of the
Episcopal Church. While not mention
ing him by name. 1t was apparent that
he had reference to the Rev. Percy
Stickney Grant. Bishop Burch declared
that Americanism was the uppermost
thought in his mind at the time. He
declared that the church which he had
the honor to represent had been re-
buked for a lack Of Americanism.
But IL one or two strident voices
are raised" he said, 'it is no reflection
on our loyalty as church.. Such a
rebuke Is wholly untrue. for we are
loyal to the core. We have no SYM

8 REDS HELD FOR
DEPORTATION ARE
SET FREE ON BAIL
Authorities Fear That Their
Expulsion from Country May
Be Delayed Indefinitely.

The possibility of an indefinite delay IN
the deportation of scores of radicals held
on Ellis Island loomed yesterday when
several were released on bail without hav-
ing answered the preliminary questions of
the Bureau of immigration. Gregoriyitch
Wenstein. chancellor" of Ludwig A. c.
X. Martens Soviet Bureau, was among
those released. He had declined to answer
the questions of the inspectors. Ellis
Island authorities are convinced that IL
many of those held are released without
examination it will be impossible to prove
that they should be deported.
Weinstein was permitted TO leave Ellis
Island after $4,000 in Liberty bonds had
been furnished as his bail. He said at
the Barge Office that he had no complaint
to make about the treatment he received
while in the detention pen. He will go I'm
mediately to Washington he says, to con-
fer with Martens. He will be witness
before the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee next week. Isaac Bogopolsky
William Radin, Eugene Neuwald, Morris
Schneidermann. Max Gendlin. Stephen
Orlick and Rose Baron were released in
81 900 bail each.
Percy A. Baker, superintendent at the
island, explained that the aliens were re-
leased on bail on orders from officials OF
the Department of Labor. He further
stated that Byron II. Uhl. Acting Com
missioner throughout the deportation pro-
ceedings, had followed the practice of the
Labor Department which has prevailed
for years.
"The burden of proof is upon the aliens
held for deportation" said Mr.. Baker.
THE deportation warrants read that the
aliens must show cause why they should
not be deported. The assumption is that
they are aliens and in the United States
in violation of the law 1t will be almost
impossible to get a case against these
people If they get out on bail immcdi-
ately. They can refuse to answer ques-
tons and the government will be balked."
Miss Rose Weiss, an attorney in the
office of Charles Recht, expects to gain
the release on bail of at least sixty or
the aliens held in the detention pen before

countenances violence or disorder or
otherwise runs counter to our laws.
The members of this committee per-
sonally approve of the practice Of depor-
tation in proper cases with due legal
process. but they also fully appreciate and
prize the great principles of freedom of
speech and Of discussion and Of thought
which are fundamental to all just govern
ments.
Whether our views are in accord with
those of the rector or not he should be
allowed to express his own opinion freely
and fearlessly, the only limitations being
such as are imposed by law and the prop
critics of every person.
I'VE conclude. therefore, that 1t was the
undoubted right Of the rector to express
an opinion adverse to the law Of deporta-
ton or to the manner in which that law
is administered.
However. we regret the mention of the
arrival Of the Mayflower and the landing
Of the Pilgrim Fathers with the sailing of
the Buford earring the deported aliens as
having been highly unfortunate. The mis-
understanding and the misinterpretation
of the allusion was easy and not un-
natural"

DIR. GRANT REPEATS
VIEWS

Russia asks bread and we send her Boil
sheviks," declared Rev. DR.. Grant yester-
day afternoon in an interview in which he
answered some of the charges recently
made against him for his so-called radical
views. The clergyman made it very plain
that he was strongly against the present
method Of deporting.
Agitation has done its work." he con-
tinued "The workers are aroused. If
they wish to become any 'madder' than
they are, they have only to read the news
pa pers."
DR.. Grant began by calling deportation
"un-Amercan'' and stating that he was
IAN old fashioned American" He ex-
planned that all his people emigrated from
England He said that when a boy he had
the privilege Of the friendship o. Wendell
Phillips, who wrote for the rector motto,
Peace II possible; justice at any rate
II cannot believe that those who ar
ranged the deportation of Sunday. Decem-
Der 81, 1919,' said DIR. Grant, remember
that it was Mayflower Day almost the
300th anniversary or recalled the tradi-
tions OF emigrant of colonial, of United
States history, associated with Plymouth
and Boston, summed up in their patriotic
leaders and successful pleaders for human
liberty, otherwise they would not have de-
MED asylum on a day famed for grant
ing it.
II agree that il there is regulation by
which a man can be excluded from the
country upon his arrival he can logically
be apprehended and deported later on.
But when he has entered not by subter-
fuge; when he has resided not in hiding or
on sufferance-perhaps for many years
then to invoke the immigration laws
smacks of ex-post facto legislation. In
fact, 1t is very much like persecution.
I'VE are dealing harshly with our weak
est workers. Aliens have not the come
back of the ballot or even the ba acking of
any organized government since Russia
is in straits and at war on fifteen fronts.
They have not the assistance of money or
of educated associates. In many cases
they have not even the help Of the English
language. Are there any persons in
America more at our mercy? Yet these
are the people we seize, interrogate, ac-
cuse. deport.
Personally. I am as much for law and
order as any Presidential candidate" said
Dr. Grant. "I abhor force and violence.
cannot with satisfaction view the Hobbies
in Washington conducted by the American
Federation OF Labor.
81 so keenly support the rights OF prop
erty that would have paid for every slave
and for every distillery and brewery. But
no matter how old-fashioned our Ameri-
canism may be, it is not served in my opin-
ion by injustice or inhumanity."
