Indignant Protest
From Sweden

Stockholm, March sI3r+-Ths Social
Democratic Party of Sweden, Of
which Premier Brantling is the head,
has sent to the Soviet government OF
Russia an indignant protest against
the Imprisonment of 5000 Socialists
in Georgia and Russia.
The message which was sent to
Moscow by a special courier asserts:
"Phe working class of Sweden has
received reports regarding the treat.
ment by the Soviet government oil
Russian and Georgian Socialists
which have aroused stupefaction and
anger. Over 200 Russian Socialists
Of different groups have been forced
to resort to hunger strike in order
to call the worlds attention to the
sufferings to which they are exposed
and in order to obtain forcibly an
Improvement of their conditions.
Five thousand Georgian Social
Democrats are now in prison on ac-
count of their not having voluntarily
submitted to the force of Russian oc-
cupation. Others are .deported by
thousands or are forced to keep in
hiding in order to escape the fate of
those already arrested.
at ought not to be apossible tina.
a government, that has repeatedly de.
clared itself to be following a policy
founded on socialist principles, sub
NIT its Socialist antagonists to such
a treatment. 1t is, however, evident
that the reports we receive are ruth
full, which must meah that the Soviet
government ruthlessly violates the
fundamental principles of Socialism
and in a manner of unbelievable
grossness, challenges labor opinion
all over the world.
"The crimes which the Soviet pow
er thus committed and commits can
hardly be atoned for. We know that
we are speaking in the name of a
practically unanimous Swedish work
ing class when we are telling you
that unless the Russian and Georgian
Socialists are set free and humanity
treated, the Russian Soviet govern
ment will be the object of general
detestation within the working class
of this country. Deeply agitated and
bitterly indignant, we protest against
your treatment of Socialists who do
not agree with the principles of Com
munism.
1--WE cannot forego emphasizing
the completely untenable and uncon-
ceivable contradiction between the
exhortation by the Communist Inter,
national to- the working men of west
ern Europe to form united front,
and the actions of the government
that in the name Of Communism
wields the power over Russia and
some of it's protectorates."

Congress Of Far
Eastern Peoples

Moscow, March 1s.-The Congress
of the Far Eastern Peoples held here
under the auspices of the Third In
ternational was regarded as of minor
Importance by all connected with it.
Those attending it were for the
most part students, the important
leaders of the various countries stay
ing at home and sending word that
it was useless to attend conference
when Russia was returning to bour-
geois organization.
There was good deal of loose talk
about war and revolution in the Far
East but not of nature to convince
the Russians present that it would
materialiZe.
Many of the delegates were picked
up right in Moscow and one Chinese
socialist of prominence refused to at
tend. Officially there were IA dele
gates, So of whom were Koreans, 16
Japanese, AZ Chinese, % Mongolians,
a Javanese and two Kalmucks.
In principle, the Third Interna-
tional promised to help the national
movements in the countries repre-
sented, so that such movements
might later be diverted into Marxist
labor movements. 1t is understood
by the Third Internationale that SO
far there is no real Communist move
ment in China, Japan or Korea but
nationalist agitation in the sense that
the revolutionists object to existing
governments.
The second decision taken, also in
principle, was that the Third Inter
national would help to prevent the
development especially of American
influence in China and in general
prevent any European powers inter
fering for capitalistic purposes there
But no money was promised to helr

Importance of Foreign Trade

Constantinople, March 13.-An
chambers Of commerce in the United
States will be asked by the American
Chamber of Commerce here to coop
crate in campaign to- educate the
American public in the Importance
of foreign trade. The project was se3
forth at the annual meeting of the
American Chamber.
Rear Admiral Mark l.. Bristol, the
American High Commissioner, de-
clar in an address:
"All far-sighted business men at
home and abroad must unite in edu-
eating public sentiment in America
to knowledge that foreign markets
are essential to the prosperity of the
country.
"This campaign of education must
be pushed with the least possible de-
lay because other countries are al
ready forging ahead and making dis.
tinct progress In spite of the handi-
caps which large armies and unfav-
orable rates of exchange have been
to them.
"How to do business in foreign
countries must be learned by Amefi-
cans as new lesson in commerce
and trade. 1t will take time for our
business men to train their foreign
agents, yet we cannot afford to wait
very long.
"Our competitors are plyaing a
game in which they have been train
ed for generations. We are almost
novices but we have never admitted
any possibility Of failure and we shall
not admit it now.
"The greatest factor in overcom-
ing all obstacles is concerted cam
paign of educatio nand inspiration by
chambers of commerce throughout
America.
"For successful American eompeti-
ton in foreign markets, it is essen
tian that we should have abroad at
least seven American activities in
every market: banks, trading firms,
steamship agencies, steamship lines,
direct parcels post service, insurance
companies and an efficient and ag-
gressive chamber Of commerce that
will bring about unity Of action for
the common good of all American
business.
