SAKLATVALASE|zED
FOR FIERY SPEECH
Released on Bonds to Keep
Peace-SmiIes Taunt Pre-
mier Baldwin.
By the Associated Press.


LONDON, May 4.-Shapurji Saklat.
vala, the only Communist member of
Parliament. was arrested today on a
charge of making seditious speech
in Hyde Park on Sunday.
He was arraigned in the Bow Street
Police Court, remanded for further
hearing and bound over with sureties
to keep the peace.
In the course of the proceedings
the prosecuting attorney read ex-
tracts from Saklatvala's speech in
Hyde Park, which a policeman took
down in shorthand. He was quoted,
in part, as saying:
1--WE saw vanload of blackshirts
F'ascistD in oxford street, with
nothing in sight but Union Jacks.
The Union Jack has for hundreds of
years been doing nothing but harbor-
ing fools and rosues.
Preparing to Fight
I'VE know they are preparing to
fight us. We know they are prepar.
ing to kill us. They are preparing to
throw bombs"
Saklatvala was released on bail in
his own recogniZance and in bonds
of 1900.
Another extract from the speech of
the Communist member Of Parliament
read by the prosecuting attorney was:
I'VE want to tell tie army boys that
they must revolt now and refuse to
fight. l want navy boys TO march be-
hind every English housewife when
she goes out to purchase food and l
want the army and navy to really pro-
tect the people instead of the rogues
and thieves of the master classes"
The prosecutor said he relied on
that passage to support the charge
that Saklatvala melted the armed
forces of the nation not to do their
duty.
Saklatvala, listened intently and
smiled occasionally while Premier
Baldwin in the House of Commons
was telling members last night that
calamity would befall the nation If
the general strike was not averted.
Smiles Pique Baldwin.
Noting the smile on the face of the
Communist, Mr.. Baldwin quietly re-
marked: II can understand the mem
ber from Battersea smiling, because
this is what he has dreamed of for
years"
The I.aborites. however, did not per
nit the prime minister's charge to so
unchallenged. He had nothing to do
with the present situation came
shouts from the Labor benches.
1t was reported in the lohbies of
Parliament that the execution of the
warrant for Saklatvala was delayed
so that he might attend the session
without interference. The action
against him is said to have been
taken by direction of the attorney
