would indicate that the tackles would
be the particular objective if the
Army is playing a line-driving game.
However, the Navy players are good

Indications point to a game in

tructiOn
A tragic illustration Of the eondi-
ton in Russia, which the British dele
gates endorsed by their silence at
Hamburg, Is found in a protest
lodged with the League Of Nations
In behalf Of the crushed and persecnt-
ed workers Of Georgia. The protest is
a prayer to the League Of Nations for
relief from the terrors inflicted upon
the Georgians by the Soviet forces Of
occupation. It was filed with the
League Of Nations by the representa-
tive of the nationalist government Of
Georgia In Paris.
Prosecutions
The protest is but another recital
OF the barbarities practiced by the
Soviet autocrats upon those within
their domain who refused to yield
their right to think differently from
their communist overlords.
This is the appeal Of the oppressed
Of Georgia for relief from brutaIities
and bestialities almost beyond belief
1.-THE prosecutions and terror. again
unclaimed by the Russian Occupation
in Georgia for a number Of months,
continues to rage with an always
increasing severity. It would be diff
ficult to find in the history Of the
middle ages, methods OF torture as
barbarous and varied as those at pres
ent applied in Georgia BY the agents
of the Moscow government.
Hundreds and thousands of peace
able people are arrested whose sole
crime consists in not wishing either
to declare themselves to be COM
munists or to recognize the refine
of occupation. These people are
taken before the Tckeka and asked:
do you recognize the soviet reg
ime?"
IF the reply is in the negative,
then the most cruel punishment the
world has ever known, are resOrted
to. The teeth and hair of the victims
are pulled out. They are then thrown
into the dark and damp prisons of the
Tcheka where it is impossible to sit
down and where they receive neither
food nor drink.
Again ArraIgned
"some days later they are again ar
raigned before the Tcheka The
question rs resumed Likewise the
torture. But this time the torture is
applied with an indescribable brutal
ity. The victims are flogged and
threatened with death IL they refuse
to make the declaration dictated by

The domination Of the British trade

swing Of the British political labor
forces toward an out-ant-out-Socia
position means that much Of the re-
lance placed in British labor for the
development Of constructive policies
in the international labor movement

The British labor party officially
endorses the one hundred per cent
Socialist attitude of Phillip Snowden

to agree even to the modified con-
