No Alien Reds Wanted Here

Ii II is true, As reported from Rome.
that the Italian government has
denied permission to Giuseppe
Srebrnic, Communist, to leave that
country as a member of the delesa-
ton to the nterparliamentary Union
conference here, the United States is
saved the necessity of refusing to ad-
NIT him, as it has refused to admit
Shapurji Saklatvala. No report has
come, however, of the utterances or
specific views of Srebrnic. who is de-
scribed in the dispatches as one OF the
most ardent Communists in the Cham
Der of Deputies. Doubtless as Com
latvala. and presumably the italian
government appreciates that he would
be unwelcome in this country.

sion or eviction of radicals on the oc-
casion of the nterparliamentary con-
ference has been made. All members

will, unless they are native born citi-
zens of the United States. be kept
from entry, or if they should enter
will be sent away.
If justification were needed of the
Governments action in refusing ad-
mittance to Saklatvala, it is furnished
by utterances at meeting held yes
terday In New York at which speak
ers representing six organizations de-
nourlced it. These organizations were
the Workers Party of America, the
Civil Liberties Union, Friends of Free
dom for India, the International Labor
Defense, the Young Workers Lea que
and the Associa ton for Recognition of
the Irish Republic. The meeting was
held in the open street. and the speak
of a stepladder. One of them was Will
liam z. Foster
Several OF the Speakers. in criticiz-
ing the President. the Secretary of
State and the Government as a whole,
urged the overthrow of the capital
istic Government" but discreetly
avoided the mention of the means Of
force and violence to that end. Conse-
quently they were not interfered with
by the policemen present, under in
structions to let the reds flame if they
would so long as they did not sound
a call to arms The exclusion of SAX
latvala was denounced in a wide va
riety of expressions. One speaker
himself an exile from India. declared:
IF the working classes of America
demand the presence Of Saklatvala in
this country he will be here within
month, In spite of Mr.. Kellogg and in
spite Of Secretary Davis
An interesting sidelight on Saklat-
vala has been Shed by the London
Financial Times. which declares that
the Parsee member of the House Of
Commons, who Won an election to
that body by his denuhciation of
capitalism and the moneyed classes.
is himself a very shrewd speculat tor
and an accumulator of funds. Specifi-
eally. 1t is noted that he made a rich
cleanup in rubber shares which he
bought in November last and sold in
July at a handsome profit. So this
capitalist Communist or Communist
capitalist-whichev he may be
styied-is ifi a way to lose much OF
the sympathy which he has gained
through the refusal Of his admittance
to the big November meeting In Wash
ington.
