Of books. There are in indianapolis
three main distributors with about twenty
drug stores aud other places handing

FIGHT TO GUST
Files Charges Against German
Radical Arrested in Vim
cennes Raid.

War was declared on the communist
party in Indiana yesterday.
With the fling of a petition to cancel
the citizenship certificate Of Joseph Buch-
ardt. Vincennes, Ind, United States Dis
trict Attorney Frederick VanNuys start
ed what appears to ba the beginning OF
a clean sweep of radicals Of this type
from the state.
Communism shall not take root in In
diana" he said.
II has been recently ruled by the sec
rotary of the department Of labor that
membership in the communist party Is
sufficient to warrant deportation.
Mr.. VanNuys will act under this ruling
In an effort to deport every red In IN
diana of an alien birth, who is AFFILIATED
with the party.
Buchardt, who is a naturalized citizen,
was arrested in Vincennes, Ind, during
the red raids of Jan. 3. He is a Ger
man by birth. 1t is set out in the petit
ton that he was naturalized Feb. TO-
1917, in the circuit court OF Greene county
and that he obtained his citizenship by
fraud.
The defendant was said to have been
the secretary and treasurer Of the COM
munist organization in V%incennes, char
tered as German (No. 80 Branch" He
Is alleged to have received applications
for membership into the communist
party, collected dues and forwarded mon
ey to the national headquarters Of the
party in Chicago. Buchardt is also said
to have spread communist pamphlets and
red propaganda in Vincennes.
The petition sets forth that Buchardt
was a disbelieyer in organized govern
ment both before and after he was
granted citizenship, and furthermore that
he advocated the overthrow of the gov
eminent and the humiliation of govern
ment administration by force and revo-
luton.
According to the petition, the com
munist party held a national convention
in the city of Chicago Sept. l to 8, 1919,
and adopted and issued a manifesto and
Program in writing declaring its belief
in the humiliation and overthrow Of the
government by force and revolution. II
was further stated that this convention
approved and ratified a declaration
adopted by the congress of international
communists held in Moscow March . to
6, 1913, advocating the forcible seizure OF
the political apparatus of all organized
governments and the annihilation of all
legislative, judicial and administrative
powers of organized government.
Should the petition be granted cancel
Ing his citizenship the defendant will
probably be cited for deportation with
other foreign members of the communist
party.

WILSON ASKS J.
MORE MONEY
FOR EUROPE
~Unthinkable We Should With
hold Relief" He Says in
Letter to Glass.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2e.-Presideat
Wilson yesterday requested Secretary Of
the Treasury Glass to make another ap-
neal TO congress for an appropriation Of
$50. 100000, to be used in relieving starv-
ing populations in Poland, Austria and
Armenia.
Wilson, in a letter to Glass, expressed
regret that congress had not already. au-
thor3zed this loan.
The appropriation is pending before
congress. 1t has been urged by Herbert
Hoover, Gen. Bliss and others who de-
clare starvation will kill thousands If
this appropriation is not authorized.
The presidents letter follows:
with considerable regret I have no
ticed from the press that congress Is
delaying the granting Of authority for
the extension of prompt and generous re-
lief to the stricken portions Of Europe,
the urgency and importance OF which,
especially in Poland, Austria and Arme
MIA, you have already explained to the
ways and means committee.
APPALLING SITUATION
DEMANDS RELIEF.
ut is unthinkable to me that we should
withdraw from these people who are in
such mental and physical distress the
assistance which can be rendered by max
ing available on credit a small portion
OF our exportable surplus Of food which
would alleviate the situation.
while I am sure that you must have
fully explained to the ways and means
committee the appalling situation in
these parts of Europe, where men, wom-
On and children are now dying Of starva-
ton, and the urgent necessity for
prompt assistance, I beg Of you to make
another appeal to congress-.
GREAT CATASTROPHE
SEEN IMPENDING.
II am Informed through the published
report Of hearings before the ways and
means committee that congress has now
been furnished with incontroverdble
facts showing the necessity for immedi-
ate affirmative action. This prosperous
republic ought not to bear any part of
the responsibility for the moral and ma
terial chaos that must result from an
unwillingness on our part to aid those
less fortunate than ourselves. We can
not, merely to husband a small portion
Of our surplus, permit the happening
of this great catastrophe.
(signed.) "WOODROW WILSON,"
Action by che house ways and means
committee was deferred again today on
hi proposed $3.50, 100000 food relief loan
to Poland, Austria and other western
European countries. Secretary of Treas
ury Glass was in secret session for
some time with the committee explain
ing the financial condition OF the treas.
ury.

ing Pledges to Insure Victory,

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2S.-Reform forces
in congress are quietly organizing for
an offensive against horse racing and
gambling, which is expected to drive
those paStimes into the limbo where
liquor now lies. The fight will not be
started in the open until the reform
forces are certain they have enough votes
pledged to give them victory. The work
of lining up these votes is IN full swing
today.
The senate judiciary committee has be
fore Il a bin introduced by Senator
Sterling (S. D)-active in prohibition leg
islation-to bar sending Of all kinds Of
betting odds through the mails or over
telegraph or telephone wires. The meas

United States.
This bill Is not aimed directly at gam
bling" Sterling said today. 1T attempts
to prevent notification Of state anti
gambling laws by %forbidding sending of
betting odds across state lines. It does
to gambling just what the bone dry law
did to the liquor traffic"
