of Doctrine May Prove Men
ace to Government.
BY the Associated Press.


Deportation of Communists as one
means Of shutting their reasonable
mouths" was advocated in the House
today by Representative Bachmann.
A member of the Special House
Committee that investigated Com
munism, the West Virginia Republican
said unless something stops the spread
OF doctrines seeking the proletariat,"
activities in that direction may even
tually become a serious menace TO our
present form of Government"
Preventive Plans Asked.
AS preventive measures the speaker
suggested legislation to enlarge powers
of the Justice Department SO there
will be at least one branch of the
Federal Government in constant touch
with what is taking place; strength
ening of immigration laws to exclude
Communists and deportation OF those
who do get IN, and laws to stop all
newspapers and publications of every
kind advocating overthrow of this
Government by force or violence.
II am not an alarmist and do rot
anticipate there Is any danger of an
immediate revolutionary uprising from
the Communists, but / believe that the
Federal Government should take pre-
cautionary measures to guard against
this alien revolutionary conspiracy,
aimed at the heart of cur Government
and at the life, liberty and happiness
of our people"
He mentioned spread of Communist
propaganda among school children
warning that America can have no
more vicious or dangerous enemy than
he who seeks to implant in the minds of
impress!onable youths the seeds of class
hatred. anti-Americanism and revolu-
ton
Danger TO Youth Cited.
IF we stand by" he said, land per-
nit the youth OF our country to grow
up uncer Communist teachings and
anti-religious instructions, we are SOW
ing seeds for chaos and ruin, and un-
consciously aiding the enemy of civili-
cation"
why there should be any hesitation
in driving this horde of enemies out of
the country, or shutting their treason
able mouths and stopping their revolu-
tionary noise is beyond my understand
ing" he said.
Let us get rid of them and let them
return TO Russia. where they can Com
munize to their hearts content"

Staying ADMITTED
IN PR|NTER'SDEATH
Detective Tells Inquest Store
Owner Confessed Killing
During Dice Game.

coroner's jury was informed this
afternoon that Ernest Carroll, colored,
made full confession to police this
morning in which he repudiated q pre-
vious statement and admitted he killed
Albert A. GalbTeath, 43-year-old print
er, following an argument over a dice
game yesterday afternoon in the colored
mans delicateSsen at ITO L street.
The jury held Carroll for grand jury
investigation.
Detective Henry Rinke Of the second
precinct testified he and fellow ofiicer
obtained this version from Carroll in
the lookup at that precinct this
morning.
Rinke said Carroll voluntarily ad-
mitted he falsifled his flrst story In an
attempt to make 1t appear he had
surprised Galdreath during an attempt
ed robbery. The colored man, police
say, told them he took ten 81 bills from
the cash register III the store, and
folded the left hand of the dead man
the floor.
Carroll at first insisted he came down
stairs and surprised Galbreath looting
his cash register. He said the white
man backed toward the door and he
shot him once with .38-caliber pistol
which he had taken from an upstairs
bureau drawer before descending the
staircase.
CAROLS later version, Rinke testi-
fed, was to the effect that the dead
man and several others we're engaged in
dice game in the rear Of his delicates-
sen. Carroll said a dispute arose over
50-cent bet between himself and Gal
breath and that Galbreath threatened
him with vinegar bottle.
Carroll said he went to back room
and got his gun, accosting Galbreath
as he was about to leave the delica-
lessen. A heated dispute enSued, and
Carroll. police say, declared the gun
went of by accident when he raised
it to enforce an order for Gaibreath
to leave the premises.
Carroll then said he pulled the body
back from the door, which he locked
before telephoning for the police.
Carroll was quoted as having said
that the others in the game were Frank
G. Brown, 1886 Adams street northeast,
friend of Galbreath's, and q colored
man named William Jones' Brown
said he witnessed the shooting. He
told police that Carroll shot Galbreath
because the latter had expectorated on
the floor of the store. He did not saw
anything about q dice game.
Brown testified that he and the dead
man went to CAROLS delicatessen to
purchase liquor and that Carroll shot
after he had taken. Galbreath to task
for splitting on the floor of the store
Brown denied that he or Galbreath had
played dice with the colored man.
Galbreath's widow, Mrs. Ethel Smith
Galbreath, said he had been out Of
work for some time and she was under
the impression her husband had gone
downtown yesterday to take temporary
employment.

Steward Lauds Report.
Luther c. Steward, president Of the
National Federation of Federal EN-

that it presents the most comprehen-
sive study of Federal employment
throughout the country ever attempted.
I'VE are gratified," he said, Ito find
in this report q number of recommen-

the program of the National Federation

I'VE wish particularly to commend
the recommendations for periodical
increases In salary, within grades; for
abolition of the so-called average
provision: for wage fixing machinery
for mechanical and labor groups, whose
compensation has a direct relation to
the prevailing rate in the community
for the virtual abandonment of the
present complicated and elaborate
efficiency rating system.
We regret to note that the en-
trance salary as proposed is unchanged
from the present minimum. The pro-
posal to lessen the number of rates
in a grade and to increase the amount
Of rate increases combined with the
periodical increases will, 1t is true
enable employees TO progress much more
rapidly than at present, but the Ma
tional Federation of Federal Employees
shall continue its efforts to secure in
the legislation an adequate minimum

Aligning themselves with those who are

weekly newspapers from the various
counties of the State.
The Assembly now has two anti-bill-

ROME .CONTRAD|CTS
CRITICISM OF POPE
Official Circles Answer Asser-
tons on Failure to Main
tain Treaty.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ROME, February 17.-Oficial circles,
while taking yesterdays criticism by
Pope Plus calmly, today contradicted
some Of the points in which the Pontiff
said the government was failing to
maintain the moral and religious at
moSphere In Rome stipulated under the
terms of the Lateran treaty.
The newspapers. which the Pope
criticized as Immoral" are regarded by
official Rome as among the cleanest in
Europe: the movies which the Pope also
criticized, are mostly American, with
some German and French, all closely
censored, and there is close supervision
over the vaudeville stage.
AS for disregard of the Sabbath, it
was observed that the head of the
church naturally would expect a more
rigid observance than is generally to
be expected from the people.
The italian government, 1t was said,
observes the spirit and letter of the
Lateran treaty, but while protecting the
interests of the church of Rome it also
must assure religious freedom of other
sects. This was by way OF answer to
the Pope's assertion that too great free
dom was permitted Protestant sects in
Italy.
