so. If they are to make it so,
then the job is largely up to the
teachers we employ in our

The conception of what a
school ought to be has been mag
nified a hundredfold in the last
quarter of century. City life,
relieving the child of disciplinary
farm chores and also largely de-
priving him of his fathers at
tention because of the stress and
strain Of wage earning, has
shifted more and more of the
responsibility for young America
upon the shoulders of the teacher.

with illiteracy we must begin
with the teacher who, herself.

A WHITE GUARDS STATEMENT

before our coming that there was a
more or less efficient working or.
ganization of local government in the
village soviets We destroyed it and
put back a local autocracy in the
persons of officials and military com.
manders whose object was to get ont
of the villages what they could. A
man with some feelings OF humanity,
I suffered from what I saw. We
captured big estates run by agricultural
communes-a sort of state farms.
Considering all the difficulties they
were in good condition, well stocked
with beasts, geese, etc, all well cared
for We literally sacked them, handing
them over to soldiers, who killed even
the cows, aftel which we restored the
estate to its pre-revolution owner.
"0ur people had sacked the estates
which the reds had organized and the
old owners have no capital with which
to run these things themselves. 1t was
the same everywhere. The 'reds' had
preserved palaces, etc, absolutely un.
touched. There was different story
to tell after we had left them"

made the following statement to The

at Helsingfors:
"I am convinced of one thing, that

the Bolsheviks leads 20 nothing but
the destruction of Russia itself and
of honest men on both sides. We

advance looked like being successful
the northwest government was pushed
on one side like a baby, and the real
intentions of the leaders became clear.

WASHINGTON NEWS LETTER
- By Paul Hanna -
Staff Correspondent.
The Federated Press.

Observation-Disclosures the release
of more than 100 prisoners seized in
raids during the past few months
by Attorney General Palmer there is
q conflict Of policy which neither the
attorney general nor the secretary Of
labor has thus far confessed.
Palmer and Acting-Secretary Of
Labor Post have both given their
support to the general impression that
lack of evidence is responsible for the
sudden freeing of radical aliens. That
is true, but it is not all the truth.
Against scores of hundreds of prisoners
the attorney general possessed no evid'
ence whatever. Presumably very much
frightened himself by the wholly un'
explained bomb explosion at his Wash
ington home. Palmer suspended all con.
stitutioual guarantees and proceeded
to imprison every person whose rep
ptation or social obscurity made IL safe
to treat in such a manner.
The present Wholesale freeing Of
alien radicals is direct outgrowth Of
those high.handled tactics. Against
t'.ose methods the department Of labor
filed vigorous and repeated protests
with the attorney general. But popular
hysteria reinforced Palmer. His chief
confederate was Anthony Caminetti,
commissioner of immigration within
the labor department, who agreed that
"to save the nation" tho consti'
tuition might properly be ignored.
Until the public reaction against Pal
merism came, the department OF labor
was helpless. But certain court de.
cisions have recently been rendered
which give the labor department the
whip hand over Palmer. Two differ
ent federal Judges have declared that
evidence secured against prisoner
by the forcible search without warrant
OF his person or premises Is no eV',
deneo at all.
In addition, the supreme court ro.
Gently threw out a civil suit brought
by Palmer because the attorney gen.
erals evidence had been procured in
the course Of raid, without warrant,
upon the offices Of a corporation. After
being compelled to return documents
seized IN the illegal raid, tho attorney
generals office had come into court
again with photostats of the same
documents, and request that tho court
then order the defendant TO produce
originals.

Labor Jury Charges Conspiracy of Cap
italist Interests in |. w. w. Case.
BY John Nicholas Beffel. =
Staff Correspondent,
The federated Press

TACOMA, WASH.-The labor jury
delegated by six central bodies Of
organized workers 70 watch the Cen
tralia labor trial at Montesano has just
made its report. BY a unanimous vote,
after reviewing all the evidence, it
found the 10 7. w. W. defendants not
guilty of numbering Lieut.. Warren
o. Grimm on armistice day
Ample proof was offered. according
to the labor iury's findings, to show
that Grimm participated in the attack
on the I. w. w. hall in Centralia.
Cognizance was taken of the fact that
the court refused to permit the in
troudctiOn Of evidence vital to the
defense; and the labor jury expressed
its conviction that the troops were
brought to Montesano, the trial scene,
to prejudice the jury.
Meeting in the Labor Temple here,
the workers jury issued its report as
follows:
"Was there a conspiracy by the
business interests of Centralia to raid
the 7. w. w. hall there9 Verdict, yes.
"Eviderce was offered by the de-
fense to show that the Centralia bust
ness interests held a meeting at the
Elks' Club on Oct. 20, 1919, at which
meeting Police Chief A. c. Hughes
and William Scales, commander of the
local American Legion post, were pre-
sent. At this meeting Police Chief
Hughes quoted Prosecuting Attorney
Herman Allen as saying that the J..
w. w. could not legally be banished
from the town. because they had yio-
lated no law. TO the same effect also
Hughes quoted City Attorney Fl. E.
Grimm, brother of Warren Grimm.
"F. w. Hubbard, lumber magnate,
then said; 'It's a damn shame; law
or no law, if I were chief of police, L
would run them out of town within
"a hours William Scales, chairman
of tho meeting, said that while he was
not in favor of raid, no jury III
America would convict anybody who
might raid the I. w. w. hall. He then
announced that he would appoint a
secret committee to deal with the J..
w. w. situation.
"Was the l w. W. hall unlawfully
raided9 Verdict, yes. The evidence
introduced ccnvinces us that an at
tack was made before shot was fired.
"Had the defendants right to
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-04-09

defend their hall2 Verdict, yes. In
April, 1918, an earlier /. w. W. hall in
Centralia was raided by the tail'end
of a RED Cross parade. The furniture
was destroyed or stolen, ropes were
placed around the necks of the |. W.
w. members and they were driven out
of town by citizens armed with pick
handles.
"Was Warren o. Grimm party to
the conspiracy to raid the 1. W. W.
hall9 Verdict, yes. To our minds the
convincing evidence that Grimm was
in front of and raiding the hall with
others, is the testimony of Lieut.. Frank
Van Glider, witness for the prosecu'
tion. Van Glider testified that he stood
at Grimm's side at the intersection of
Tower Ave. and Second st. when, ac-
cording to his story, Grimm was shot.
"This testimony was refutod by
five witnesses who swore that they saw
Grimm coming wounded from the direc-
tion of the I. w. w. hall. 1t is not
credible that Van Glider, who was
Grimm s intimate friend, would leave
him mortally wounded, to walk half a
block alone and unaided.
"Did the defendants get fair aud
impartial trial9 Verdict, no. The most
damaging evidence of a conspiracy by
the business men of Centralia to raid
the T. w. W. hall was ruled out by
Judge John N. Wilson and was not
permitted to 60 to the jury.
"Also the calling of federal troops
by Prosecuting Attorney Allen was
done for no other reason than TO
create atmosphere. The pre-
sence of American Legion members in
court in large numbers also was
factor to weigh against an impartial
decision by the jury"
Signers of the labor jury's verdict
were: Paul X. Mohr, of the Seattle
Central Labor Council, who was chair
man; Theodore Meyer, Everett Central
Labor Council; John o. Craft, Seattle
Metal Trades Council; e. w. Thrall,
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
Centralia division; w. J. Beard, Ia
coma Central Labor Council; and Otto
Neumann, Portland Central Labor
Council.
All Of these organizations except the
Brotherhood of Trainmen are integral
parts Of the American Federation of
Labor.
