SIX HELD FOR
DEPORTATION
IN CHICAGO
Bootleggers and Thugs
Not Worried

The police and Immigration officials,
sent from Washington by the Coo
idse government, to conduct cam
paian of deportation in this city are
eIated at their success in capturing
six aliens for deportation. Out of the
hundreds arrested in the raids car
ried on during the week only these six
were held for deportation.
Under the pretext that deportation
is the only wayito prevent the muir
ders arising OUT of the feuds OF the
rival bootlegging3 gangs. the opportun-
ity has been seized to stir up a depor.
tation campaign against the foreign,
born. Nightly raids have been car.
ried on in the foreign sections. Hun
dreds have been dragged to police
headquarters where they were ques-
toned.

Gang Leaders Safe.

But this ras not stopped the gang
war; as is shown by the murder which
occurred following the announcement
of the deportation campaign Nor
has the campaign worried the gang
chiefs. 1t is reported that they have
simply moved to a suburb where
they will be safe from any interior
ence by police or immigration ofiici-
ais.
The eagerness displayed by the fed
eral labor department to aid in the
deportation campaign by sending
several inspectors here to aid in de.
portations shows that the Coolidge
government hopes to get from this
situation sufficient propaganda to
justify the passing Of the anti.foreign
born bills now psnding In congress.
