Canal Zone GoUernor Protests
Against Demonstration.

PANAMA, Sept. 3.--Col. Jay j. Morrow.
Governor OF the Canal Zone. has ad-
dressed q note to the Panaman Govern
r11ent charging that the projected closing
down of all business on Labor Day as an
expression of public mourning for the
loss OF the Coto district, on the Costa
Rican frontier. is ''anti-American propa-
ganda" Gov. Morrow says this attitude
on the part of the Government might
lead to disturbances throughout the re-
public on Monday.
Proposals for the erection OF a monu-
ment commemorating the Coto affair are
qualihed by Gov. Morrow as a hostile
act toward the United States and one
that would engender III feeling between
the two people He speaks of the
strong ties linking Panama and the
United States. and declares II is neces-
sary to maintain amicable relations.
Disturbances. he declares, would bring
about the policing of the cities OF Pam
anna and Colon by American forces.
The Secretary Of Foreign Relations,
Alfaro. in reply has said the Panaman
Government is animated BY desire 10
maintain amicable relations. and that
anti-Ameficnn propaganda and the

EXECUTED FOR
PETROGRAD REVOLT
Bolsheviki Say Some Were
Agents of American In
telligence Service.
Ru the Associated Press.


RIGA, Latvia. Sept 3.--Sixty-one per-
sons were shot in Petrograd on August
"a after being sentenced to death by the
Cheka, or Bolshevist iniquisition, for
active participation in the plot against
the Soviet Government recently dlscov-
cred in Petrograd, says a wireless mes
sage from Moscow to-day.
Among those put to death, according
to Moscow newspapers reaching this
city, there were believed to have been
several persons accused by the Cheka OF
being Russian agents OF the American
Intelligence Service. who crossed the
border into Russia from Terijold, Fin
land.
The results of these activities, accord
ing to local Bolshevist sources, may be
the strengthening of the Cheka, which
already is reported to be arresting many
persons in Moscow in connection with
the alleged foreign interventionist ac-
tivities. Anti-Soviet observers in Riga
to-day were of the opinion that the
Cheka exaggerated reports of the plot
in order to save its own power.
Detailing the Cheka's revelations, the
Moscow Prada, says:
"The Petrograd fighting organization
kept in close touch with other White"
agents in Petroarad For instance. the
organization acting under the flag of the
American Intelligence Service-the Pet
rograd fighting organization-had
number OF secret meeting places in Pet
rograd and was in touch with circles
made up of former naval officers, who
after the Kronstadt revolt began build
ing fighting units, consisting of groups
of sailors from Kronstadt. who arrived
in Finland. Up to that time it had been
purely a spying organization, selling
military. political and economic infor-
nation to the Finnish General Staff and
leading American imperialsts."

DIFFERS FROM A PARDON1

WASH INGToN, Sept. 3.-The possibility
that President Harding after the formal
conclusion OF peace with Germany may.
through the extension of Executive Glenn
ency. open the doors of the Atlanta peili-
tentiary to Eugene v. Debs. the Socialist
leader, was suggested to-day by Admin
istration officials.
Speculation as to disposition OF the
Debs case has been widespread in WASH
ington for several weeks. Reports were
general until few days ago, although
without official confirmation. that Attor-
mend that the Socialist leader be par
doned. This belief however. was les
sened and in some quarters entirely dis
sipated by the emphatic stand taken by
Mr.. Daugherty in his American Bar AS
sociation address OF last Wednesday
against release of what he called "po-
litical Offenders"
Several officials. on having their at
tention called to-day to the stand taken
by the Attorney General, Immediately
pointed out that distinction existed be-
tween pardon and an extension of Ex-
ccutive ciefnency. A pardon, 1t was ex-
planned. would operate to restore Debs
to the fun rights and privileges of citi-
zenship in addition to freeing him from
prison. while the extension OF ciemency
merely would allow him his freedom.
These officials were strongly of the
opinion that in vrew OF the Socialist
leaders, advanced age and because his
offences have been held to be Of words
rather than deeds, the question of Glenn
ency might be considered by the Attor-
ney General and the President.

tion that the Du Pont Company of
Wilmington, Del. has engaged several
leading chemists of the big Eibeffeld
dye works at large salaries. with view,

This asserts the newspaper. is only
one instance of many attempts by for
eign firms to induce German employees
to betray chemical and pharmaceutical
secrets.
The whole question arose out of the
Tdgebldtts inquiry into the truth of9hl-
legations said to have been made by
foreign medical journals that German
h1edicaiients for consumption abroad
have been deliberately adultered for the
purpose Of damaging the health of for-

AMERICAN ENGINEER
LOST HOPE IN RUSSIA
Royal c. Keely in Riga After
Two Years in Moscow
Prison.
BIZ the Associated Press.

RIGA, Sept. S.--Industrial plants and
machinery in Russia are steadily dis
inteerating, declared Royal C. Keely.
American engineer who was a prisoner
in Moscow for many months and who
arrived here to-day on his way to the
United States.
Buildings are painless and rotting
and industrial machinery Is rusting."
Mr.. Keely declared.
Mr.. Keely said he saw no appreciable
general Improvement in the industrial
situation in Moscow over the period
between September. 1919, and May.
1920 Before his arrest he said he
had travelled throughout Russia in a
special car and had inspected many
industries. and that he had informed
Nikolai Lenine Soviet Premier, in per-
sonal letters that the situation was
terrible.
Upon arriving In RaSsia In September.
1919, Mr.. Keely said, he was invited
to inspect every sort of industry, and
he found conditions so hopeless from
his viewpoint that he asked permission
to leave. This was frequently post
poned. he said. and finally he left Mos
COW on May Z. 1920, only to be ar
rested as he arrived on Nav 12 near
the Esthonian border station of Cam
burg and was sent back to Moscow and
imprisoned.
His first trial was on April "a, 1921,
when he was sentenced to two years
at concentration camp charged with
communicating Information to the
press of bourgeoise nations" Mr. Keely
said his trial was joke. as the only
defence he had was by Soviet attor-
ney appointed for him by the Bolshevist
court
Mr. Keely was freed on August last
Mr. Keely. who left Moscow on Thurs
day. said that only four other Ameri-
cans--Harold Carlson. Mrs. Carlson and
their two children-~-had secured the
necessary vises to leave Russia, while
many others were held up because OF
technical diffculties, such as lost Or
stolen passports and lack of money.
Mr.. Keely said the famine was ex-
tremely bad. but that Moscow was full
of food for those able to buy and that
it was easy to live on few dollars

Gen. Eric Ludendorff sees Germany
endangered through the acceptance of
big concessions in Soviet Russia by
Germanys industrial leaders. Hugo
SHINES, who has obtained large tracts,
notably in the mining districts of the
Ural Mountains, and who intends to
invest capital there, is committing an
act of political folly similar to his
rashness in attempting to assimlate
Belgian industry during the war, in
the opinion of an officer closely as
sociated with Gen. Ludendorff and
sharing fully his conviction on the
dangers of Bolshevism.
Arnold Rechberg. Gen. Ludendorff's g
representative in Berlin, has begun a
crusade against so called commercial
Bolshevism.' He declared to THE NEW
York HERALD correspondent here that
his factory had refused to enter into
business dealings with Soviet Russia.
He is convinced that the Bolsheviki
are offering trade inducements SO as to
attract enough foreign capital to pre-
vent their downfall.
This. he says is a repitition of the
Rolshevist tactics toward Germany just
prior to the arruistice. The Bolsheviki
silenced military opposition then by
picturing the impending breakdown Of
the Communist Government and won
the support Of German finance by
promising German industry large orders
for agricultural and mining macnin-
cry.
Germany, Herr Rechberg says, was
misled at to the real strength OF the
communists and German financiers
found themselves compromised without
receiving a single order There is
similar situation to-day" Herr Rech-
berg continued Dealing with the Boil
sheviki simply gives them arms to
turn against western Europe The
Bolsheviki have no real interest In
Russia's reconstruction. because gen.
eral prosperity there would weaken the
hold they now have on the Red army.
which they keep loyal by feeding 1t.
"The Soviet Government can cripple
outside industry by suddenly violating
contracts BY distributing a small
number Of orders for goods. the Soviet
agents get access to factories. Here
they arouse the workers by telling them
their employers are blocking produc-
ton and. consequently. reducing the
profit OF the workers
THE Communists seek to attract for
eign capital to Russia now, but when
the opportune moment comes they will
oust the owners from the factories
The only real protection that foreign
investors in Soviet Russia could have
would be an army corps armed with
machine guns. The arrest of the nom
political Russian famine commission
indicates Soviet Russia's duplicity. They
cannot tolerate real outside collabora-
ton Their seeming concessions amount
simply TO commerce Bolshevism.
