ton Upheld in Test of
Preis Communist Case.
RAIDS ARE VALIDATED

Secretary of Labor Wilson yester-
dRy sustained the contentious aof the
Department OF Justice in the test
Communist case holding that under
the law 1t is mandatory to arrest and
deport alien members OF the Com
munist parties Of America.
| The decision OF the Secretary in ef-
feet validates the raids made January
under instructions Of Attorney Cen
eral Palmer. when 5000 members of
the Communist parties were arrested
in thirty-five cities of the country.
VIII simplify Hearings
1t paves the way for completion Of
the hearings of the Communists now
being held by immigration inspectors
and for the issuance OF warrants for
deportation OF the Communists. The
decision also will simplify the hear
ings, as the Secretary of Labor holds
II Is necessary only for the Depart
ment OF Justice to prove a prima
facie case of membership in a Com
munist party in order to convict for
deportation.
The decision OF Secretary Wilson
was given in the case Of Englebert
Preis, Austrian. arrested at Chicago.
Preis entered the United States at
Port Huron. Mich. in 1916. Arguments
in the case were made Jspuary p by
J. Z. Hoover special assistant to
! the Attorney General for the De-
partment OF Justice. and by Swim
burne Hale. OF New York; Arthur Tat
zeff, of Boston. and A. j. Bachrack
and Isaac Z. Ferguson, of Chicago.
for the Communists.
In his decision Secretary Wilson
holds that the Communist party Of
America comes clearly under the
prohibitory provisions of the Act of
1918. inasmuch as it is an organization
"membershiptin which makes an allen
liable to deportation"
Affiliated With international
After citing quotations and other
statements, In the Manifesto OF the
Communist Party OF america, which
she says Is admittedly affiliated with
the Communist International, Secre-
tary Wilson says:
1T is apparent that the Communist st
party of America is not merely a
political party, seeking the control
of affairs of state. but a revolu-
tionary party. seeking to conquer
and destroy the state in open COM
| bat. And the only conclusion is that
the Communist party of America
! as an organization believes in.
! teaches and advocates the over
throw by force or violence of the
government of the United States.
Duty to Apply Law.
1T does not devolve upon the Sec
! retary of Labor officially to deter
mine whether Congress was wise in
creating the law or the Communist
! party wise in creating the facts. 1t is
! his duty to apply the law to the
facts as he finds them. 1t is man

/ organization and deport them in the

An Engagement RIna
,ditor Of Won ans Page.

To the Editor Of Wondn's Page:
Dear Madam--I have two questions
l would like to ask you. The first is
what would be the size of stone and
the cost for an engagement (diamond)
ring, one that would not be small and
yet would not be 80 large as to be in
bad taste? In other words, a moderate
ring.
Is It possible to send by parcel post
a package to a distant postoffice and
have it await ones arrival at the To-
Cality? I have nobody to whom I NAV
send II. and ! particularly desire that il
shall be there and ready for men when
l come to claim 1t. INTERESTED.
The cost of a diamond depends so
much upon the setting. the ring itself
and the storo at which you buy It that
il would hardly be possible to give YOU
any definite price. The only way you
can Judge this is by looking at the rings
at Various stores and striking an
average.
II You know where you will be in the
town to which you want the parcel
post package sent you could send II 10
that address and have II kept until YOU
get there. If you do not know where
you will be staying. simply address II
to yourself. mark II general delivery
and It will be kept for you at the post.
Office until you call for It, That is, for
reasonable length OF time, fifteen to
thirty days.

THE KIND OF TROUBLE-MAKEPI
WHO TELLS UGLY STORLESl
For the Sake Of Breaking Up Friendship Always Has an
Involuntary Accompice in the Person Who
Believes Every Word She Says

CHE didn't want to sign her real
Oname when she wrote for advice, and
so she took refuge behind the good old
standby, Worried" And she has rea :
son to be worried!
This is the story. She had this "Boy-
friend" who came to see her n great
deal,> took her to parties, and seemed to
like her very much. She liked him. too.
They went to a dance one evening, and
during the intermission--no doubt while
she was slapping her hot, pink face with
a fiat powder puff-her "Girlfriend." -"
whom she has known for q number. of
years, came up to her.
Listen she said. "I've got some
thing to tell you" They retired to a
remote corner, and "Worried" listened
while "Girlfriend'' told her. Such
stories All about the "Boyfriend. "
When the last one was finished his repu :
tation and character were shattered.
Worried" believed every word of it,
and the next day wrote him note say
ing that she did not want to see him
again.
Since then she has been hearing that
the stories are not true. In fact, she
has proof that they are not true. And
now she wants to get back his friend :
time doing that. A boy does not readily
resume friendship with a girl who has
doubted him and has not given him a
chance to square himself" He was
probably deeply hurt and puzzled about
the whole thing at first. Then after
ward, no doubt, he heard the reason for
1t all, decided 'if that's the way ! size
up to her, I'm through" and found an :
other girl to take to parties and like
very much.
:"Worried" made two bad mistakes.

HUMAN psychology Is a strange thing
and often the smallest. least sig
nifcant matters have a far-reaching in
fiuence. Since Katherine had met Barbara
Grant her drifting ideas had suddenly
crystallized; and she realized in a fash
where her thoughts had been leading
her. She realized with a sense of shame
that actually she cared nothing at all
for Keith. and she knew quite we'll that
he did not care for her. But that she
had actually given a great deal OF

fiattered by his attention she had liked
his air OF unlimited wealth and she had
preened her feathers like little peacock
because he sought her out and liked to
come to the Thursday nights. Katherine
had not been wont to be SO foolish about
any one, but Keith had been different.
Now II suddenly occurred to her that ~
was not she herself who had appealed
to Keith Grant-it was the fact that she
stood for something as far as he was
concerned that he liked her as part
of crowd of interesting people.
In thinking the matter over, she
missed nothing. She realized that II

lacking in all that he wanted IN q
woman, then It would not be difficult to
sway his imper9onal thoughts TO the per-
sonal. Before long he would see her as
matters stood. Barbara Grant was not
the kind of a woman any man could
forget She was beautiful and she was
magnetically appealing. Katherine was
