PURPOSE OF LAW TO BE ERAOt.
CATION OF "PARLOR
BOLSHEVISTS."
is PUNISHABLE BY DEATH
The House Measure Contains Ex-
tremely Stringent Penalties for
Violation of the Sedition
Laws.

Washington.-Speedy enactment of
a stringent sedition bill by Congress
was .presaged when, following pas
sage in the Senate of the Sterling
bill, announcement was made that the
House Judiciary Committee had
agreed on a similar measure and
probably wulod report it tomorrow.
One of the purposes Of the bill was
said to be eradication Of "parlor Boil
shevists."
The House measure, combination
Of Attorney General Palmer's original
bill and revisions by Representative
Graham Of Pennsylvania, contains ex-
tremely stringent penalties for viola
tions Of che sedition laws. Included
would have inflicted, upon recon-
mendation of jury, on persons
is the death penalty, which the bill
whose activities lead to destruction
OF life. The measure also would
close the mails and express compa-
nies to seditious literature, prohibit
exhibition of a red flag at mass meet
ings, deny persons the right to re-
fuse to give testimony on the ground
that 1t might tend to incriminate
them, and provide in certain cases for
disfranchisement and deportations.
The section of the measure which
provides for the death penalty fol-
lows:
THAT whoever incites, sets on foot,
assists or engages in any insurrec-
tion or rebellion against the United
States or authority or laws thereof,
or whoever sets on foot or assists or
engages in the use of force or vio-
lence, with intent to destroy or cause
to be destroyed, or change or cause
to be changed, or to overthrow or
cause to be overthrown, the govern
ment of the United States and the
death of any person or persons is
caused or results directly therefrom,
shall be guilty of a felony, and on
conviction shall be punished by
death, or shall be imprisoned not
more than 20 years, or fined not
more than $4,000, or both, and shall
forever be barred from holding office
under the United States. Provided,
however, that the death penalty shall
not be imposed unless recommended
by the verdict of the jury"

WAR ON RADICALS
Is TO THE FINISH
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR PRE-.
PARES TO RID NATION OF
SEDITION PARTIES.

Washington. - Determination of
the government to carry on to the
finish its fight to rid the nation Of
Communist-Labor party members.
more than $500 of whom now await
deportation proceedings as a result
of the recent nationwide raids, was
seen in the request transmitted by
the Department of Labor to Congress
for new appropriations totaling ST.
10000, to be used in the enforce
ment of laws against radicals and for
their deportation.
While Congress was giving the re-
quest preliminary consideration,
from the temporary headquarters of
the Russian Soviet Bureau, located
less than three blocks from the De-
partment of Justice building, there
was issued written statement by S.
Nuorteva, who said he was secretary
to Ludwig c. A. X. Martens, self
styled ambassador to the United
States from the Russian Soviet gov
ernment, setting forth general
charges against Department of JUS
tice agents.
These charges were that the de-
partment agents had actively parti-
cipated" in the formulation of some
OF the planks in the Communist and
Communist-Labor platforms, which
the statement said, now form the
basis of the persecution of thousands
of people" Another charge was that
the chief figures in such celebrated
bomb plots were agents of a similar
nature"
Department of Justice o.cials, ad-
mitting that a search was being
made for Martens, said that the sit
uation on them was humorous"
The Department of Labor's request
for additional funds to conduct its
work in roofing out radicalism was
based on recommendation of An
thony Caminetti, commissioner gen.
eral of immigration. 1t was product
ed .at the Department of. Justice that
the hearings on deportation cases,
which are scheduled to begin soon in
several cities, will require two
months. Additional time then will
be required for final review of the
cases in Washington.

ENVOY MARTENS
To BE DEPORTED
WARRANT ISSUED FOR SELF
STYLED RUSSIAN AMBASSA-
DOR TO U. S.

Washington. - Complete co-ordina-
tion of all government agencies, to-
gether with an awakened Congress,
had given the campaign to rid the
nation of radicals a broader aspect.
While Assistant Attorney General
Caravans force continued its raids, in
Guiding a search for Ludwig c. A.
Martens, self-styIed envoy of the Rus
sian Soviet government, there were
evidences of new activity and more
determined cooperation in all other
departments of the government.
Congress received a bill introduced
by Representative johnson, Republi-
can, of Washington, which would
make every government employe an
agent for ferreting out undesirables.
Each clerk would be given the duty
of reporting any information con-
corning alien activities to the De-
partment of Justice and the immigra-
tion authorities.
The Treasury Secret Service, with
it's wide ramifications, was enlisted in
running down persons for whom the
immigration authorities have issued
warrants. Customs officials also have
been ordered to report any informa-
ton they may gather in the work Of
inspecting imports, while the army
and navy intelligence arms of service
will cooperate both in the gathering
of evidence and searching out of rad
icals.
Secretary Baker ordered the vaca-
tion of all buildings and other facili-
ties used by the army at Ellis Island,
in order to make room for handling
the hundreds of aliens who are held
there pending deportation proceed
ings. 8-r.s
