JINx PLAYS TAG
WITH Raj AEL IN
DETROIT, MICH.
Elks, Rain and Angry
Bolsheviks Rule
BY EDGAR OWENS.

DETROIT, Mich 15-The Abram-
ovich meeting in Detroit Friday, Mar.
10, (jinx day. proved to be a COM
plete failure. There was a steady
downpour of rain and snow which
kept the attendance of the supporters
of Abramovich down to a minimum
and besides and more to the point,
it rained Bolsheviks.
Hundreds of workers, sympathizers
of Soviet Russia, clamored for adj
.mittance, but they were passed upon
by the counter-reYolutionary commit
tee at the door and denied entrance.
Every effort was made to prevent the
sort Of reception from the workers
that has been handed Abramovich on
his other public appearances while in
America. A tremendous crowd gath
cred around the Elks' Temple, ready
to convert the situation into a demon
stration for Soviet Russia.
The "5est People" Smell Fight.
1t was then that the management
of the Elks' Temple began to grow
suspicious. Their Rabbit souls re-
volted when they saw the committee
turning down perfectly good half
dollars which the crowd was anxious
to pay for a sight of Abramovich,
They made inquiries, and were told
that the uncouth outfit on the out
side were Bolsheviks. Visions of riots
within the confines of their beautiful
hall disturbed their peace. A way out
of the difficulty must be found.
These Detroit Elks are patriots
above all else. No, language shall be
spoken in their hall other than Eng
lish. They flatly stated to the COM
mittee in charge that the meeting
must be conducted in the English Ian
guage. Here was, condition that
the willy disciple of counter-revolution
could not meet with the result that
the meeting had to be called off.
Five Cops and 100 Reds.
Five uniformed policemen guarded
he entrance and were stationed at
strategic places in the hall, while
quad of fifty was held in reserve at
nearby police station to answer
ny emergency call that might be
ent in. However, the management of
ne Temple prevented any need for
oplice reserves by firing those who
had arranged the meeting out of the
hall.
A crowd of about 100 persons. many
of whom were sympathizers of Sow
let Russia who had managed to get
by the committee at the door, filed
out of the hall. Some were in deep
detection. Others were highly anus
ed at the turn events had taken. A
mighty shout of Long Live Soviet
Russia" and Down with the counter
revolutionary Abramovich" came from
the hundreds on the, outside. Limou-
sines and sedans drove up to take
the befurred little business men and
their fat wives away, Laughs Of de-
rision followed them.
The Abramovich meeting in De-
troit was complete failure and the
outfit who arranged to bring him here
will not be allowed to forget it.

/ STAND dumbfounded before the
| gigantic machine of the Bolshevik
dictatorship. 1t is titanic, colossal.
It's iron hands are fast-clutched over
every department Of life. II is so
strong that no power on earth can
break It. (our emphasis.) The block
ade did not break it; the combined
forces of counter-revolution aided by
foreign states did not prevail against
it. 1t defied them all, and still stands
erect and defiant.
Bourgeois Like II.
Manyof the bourgeois are now glad
of the revolution. They find their
lives more interesting now they are
doing useful work and not employing
servants to do it. Others have not
yet become reconciled to the change.
and, perhaps, never will be; but all
classes come at last to respect pow
er that is being used for the good Of
every member of the state.
Here the worker is honored. He
is no longer the last person in the
state; he is the first. For instance,
| came to Moscow as a private per-
son, and not worker; so, being re-
garded by the state machine as a bour-
geois, l have to pay double or treble
what the worker pays. go to res
taurant with Russian friend; l pay
80 copecks and he only 60. When /
ask why, he shows me his co-opera-
tive card.
Worker Comes First.
Were l a worker, could get room
for rubles (1.25) per month; with
water and ample electric light for an
other ruble. But, as a private per-
son, ] can only get room at hotel,
for which the lowest charge is 200
rubles per month, or $3.50.
The worker is favored in every way.
Here is state founded definitely up
on work, and recognizing only the
worker.
The working day consists of eight
hours for manual workers, six hours
for clerical work, as being OF a more
nerve-racking character. In the dan
gerous trades recent decree fixes the
working day as low as three hours In
the most dangerous-witha months
annual holiday, instead OF the usual
fortnight. Workers from 16 to IS
are looked upon as apprentices. and
must attend school after work hours.
The people don't get all their wants
satisfied, II is true, but such a healthy,
happy people It would be impossible
to find in the east end of any English
city. There are no rich TO flaunt
their riches in the faces OF the poor,
and there is not private car in Mos
COW, save those on hire, and they are
few.
Deport Parasites.
Only last winter 5000 persons were
deported from Moscow. They were
gambling parties, some OF the remain
ing bourgeoisie, who idled in the
cafes, and insulted the poor by the
display OF their remaining wealth. As
there were workers wanting rooms.

Walsh Describes Outbreaks
as Deadly Menace to

WI ~ S0OO = -. -
BY WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON.
From two important Congress
sional sources the Administration
today received approval of its
policy of keeping out of the
present Chinese muddle so. far as
it is possible while extending ade-
quate protection to American
lives and interests.
Senator William E. Borah,
chairman of the Foreign Relations
Committee, declared that the situ-
alton inl China was serious, but.
not by any act of the United
States. and that he could see mo
reason why the United States
should be drawn into any contro-
versy or conflict with Chinese
authorities of the Chinese pcople.9

Senator Thomas ]. Walsh CDem.l
OF Montana described the series Of
outbreaks in China as menace

United States should '.gp slow" IN

Walsh deprecated proposals for
the creation OF an international
concert, by: which the government

he warned. would never be accepted
by Chinese, because II would de-
prive them OF national liberty.

It is his belief that Japan, Russia;
France, Great Britain apd the
United States might easily become
involved In general war through
diplomatic or military mistakes In
their handling of the Chinese up

walsh. THAT would excite the

It is a situation fraught with
greater danger to world peace and
/ feel another world war might
easily grow out of the unfortunate
chaos in China
Walsh based his apprehension
not only on current reports from
rIot-torn sections OF China but on
his personal observations made. two

when he predicted the present up.
