discovered that the hundred chal-

adamant. He not only refused to
rectify the situation but he let slip

The Death Dance of the Reaction in Japan

for Home Affairs Susuki, the man
responsible for the draft for the
liquidation of parliament, at it's head
is taking number of administrative
measures for dealing with the Com
munists. During the last session of
the Japanese parliament 100000
yen were granted for the purpose
of fighting the Communists as a
result of report of Susuki. The
ministry of the interior has founded
a special department to deal with
the fight against Communism. This
special department has 100 perman-
ent officials and widespread net of
spies all over the country. The
special department has the right to
carry out exceptional arrests. The
department will also receive a cen
trail bureau for Photographic records
and a sub-department for finger
prints and department containing
nothing but files concerning the
Communist movement in Japan and
other countries.
This special department will have
branches in the Japanese colonies
Corea, Formosa and in southern
Manchuria. The introduction of this
secret police organization into the
Japanese colonies promises new ter
rors for the unfortunate population
of these colonies. Even now the
Japanese police methods there are
of such a nature that they do not
hesitate in the least to invent Soon
spiracies" having allegedly as their
aim the determination of all Japan
csc in the colonies. This was proved
by the mass arrests on the 9th of
April in Southern Manchuria and by
the various trials which have taken
place in Korea.

"McAllister's game is now plain
In Oklahoma the total vote of the
democratic and republican parties is
so close that the issue is usually de-
cided by the switching of few
thousand votes. McAllister's game
therefore, is to smuggle in set of
electors and state candidates on the
Farmer-Labor ticket whose vote
would be counted democratic.
"But McAllister will not have it
all his own way. The Communists
are leaving no stone unturned to get
their candidates on the ballot. But
even before getting their candidates
on the ballot they are waging hot

the prehistoricity of a reactionary

Hold the Fort Against
Invaders
The reopening of Mrs.
Eugene Hale's house at the
corner of Sixteenth and E
SITS. calls attention to the
disheartening change which
has come over K Street,
once a center of fashion.
The Hale house, which, by
the way, fronts on Sixteenth
Street, the home of Mrs.
Stephen B. Elkins just over
the way and the house at
the corner of < and Fifteenth
Sts., which is the home OF
Mrs. George Dewey, are
about the only residences
left in a block once given
over to stately mansions.
Retired Lives
Moreover, Mrs. Elkins' house
is the only one in which there
is any entertaining nowadays
and even she spends more and
more of her time at Ventnor,
N. J., where she has pleasant
cottage. Both Mrs. Dewey,
widow of Admiral Dewey,
hero of the Spanish-American
war, and Mrs. Hale lead very
retired lives; and although
Senator Frederick Hale makes
his home with his mother, he
gives most of his parties either
at the Metropolitan Club or at
fashionable Grasslands.

This city Is essentially conservative

The recent sensational fluctuations In
