Lately Made Borah a
Soviet Agent"

BERLIN, March 1.-THE German
government is showing unusual
qualms about proceeding against
the Orloff gang of forgers, who
specialized in producing fake docu-
ments on Soviet Union government
stationery.
Orloff has confessed to forging
the now famous Borah correspond
ence, intended as evidence that
Senator Borah was on the U.S.S.R.
payroll for 100000. This document
was denounced by a senate investi-
eating committee several months
ago. Orloff then forged other let
ters, designed to show that it was
intended to be exposed, in order to
clear Borah of other charges.
There is evidence that Orloff is
the forger Of the "Zinoviev Letter"
and many other documents used as
material in anti-Soviet propaganda.
The German authorities, however,
say that there is no law under which
Orloff can be arrested, and that all
that can be done is to ask him to
leave the country.

RED BELT" TO

Communists Prepare
for Elections

PARIS, March 1.-THE Indust-
rial suburbs of Paris, strongly Com
munist, may the coming municipal
elections, be turned into "Red belt"
in which will encircle Paris on all
sides. The Communist Party is busy
preparing for the election campaign
and state that they will win all the
suburbs of Paris.
st. Denis, to the north, is already
under Communist administration and
during the last three years Com
munist influence has grown tremend-
ously in the suburbs to the west,
south and east as well. Many of the
suburbs have been occupied by re-
volutionary workers through the or
ganization of cooperative sociaties
which bought up the land on the
other side of the Notifications,
building houses there. Thus organic
ing a strong sector of Communists
all around the metropolis.
The Partisan government is great
ly alarmed and Chiappe, the police
perfect, is now attempting to evolve
some plan for outsting the Com
munists from their communities.

STUDENTS join
Spanish REvOLT
Continue Their Strike
Against Dictator

MADRID, March 1.-THE spirit
of revolt against the dictatorship Of
Primo de Rivera is spreading to
many sections of the Spanish popu-
lation. Spanish students in several
university towns, who went on strike,
Friday, in protest against the clos
ing Of the Segovia artillery school,
are still on strike despite Rivera's
orders that they return to their
classes.
They also protest Rivera's pun
ishment of undergraduates in the
artillery school and in other I'M
iversities and his arrest of students
and instructors suspected of partici-
pating in the movement against the
dictatorship, demanding their re-
lease.
l n spite of the dictator's threat
that he will close down all schools
and univerities unless the students
attend classes, the students are still
on strike and parade on the univer-
sity grounds in many cities, in pro-
test against dictatorial measures.

Indians Robbed, Rauberized,
Killed by Il. S. Govt. Agent

Charges that 225,0O0 Indians liv-
ing as government wards on reser-
vations are being loote of lands,
oil, timber and water rights worth
millions and are being saddled with
debts which they cannot pay, are
made by Vera L. Connolly, investi-
gator, in an article published in
"Good Housekeeping" for March.
The article is o1e of series writ
ten after she visited reservations in
Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado,
Oregon, Washington, Wisconsin and
California.
She charges that millions of dol
lars worth of highway anf waterway
Improvements for the benefit of
whites have been charged against
the Indians for payments.
Middle Rio Grande Steal.
"The Pueblo Indians of New Mex
leo are facing a desperate crisis" "
she writes. Because of a contract
made between the interior depart
ment and the Middle Rio Grande
Conservancy District, the six tribes
have just been loaded down with a
charge of 1926, 1888 for flood control
work needed by the city of Albuquer
que and other towns on the Rio
Grande-but of no advantage to the
Indians"
Speaking of the Klamath Indians
of northern California and Oregon
she writes:
1.-THE Klamaths who have always
been great cattle breeders, can no
longer raise cattle, for they have nc
range. The range has been r'-'nea.
In spite of the protest of the entire
tribe, the range was '-csed to white
sheep men for three years, "a it
has been eaten out by the sheep to
the fences"
Starving Children.
The article refers to a series OF
the most brazen cruelties, all with
an economic motive to Indian chill
dren in government schools. With
the bright idea of "civilizing" the
Indicn children, they are ta ~ away
from their families at the age of
six, and held in government board
ing schools until they are sixteen or
eighteen.
These schools, with some excep-
tionr. seem to be virtual slave pens
where the children are starved,
beaten, forced to wear iron balls
and chains for punishment, confined
in undergrou- dungc crippled
by work in laundry, and in 1T least
one case, harm 3sed to pie liE'
horses and prodded with sharp sticks
