organized in the basic textile industries of the
United States It is interesting to note on the
committee also R. c. Kerr, president of the
American Thread Co. against which Mcmahon
still has strike declared ION" although it be-
gan in March, 1925, against 1870 cut in wages
of $500 workers at Willimatic Conn. Their
wages before the cut averaged SIS week.
One of the labor men, Peter j. Brady, is
frequent orator at Tammany banquets and
close personal friend of Trubee Dawson, son of
a Morgan partner and Secretary of War for
Aviation Possibly because of his interest in
military aviation, Brady has been made head of
the Civil Federation's COMMITTEE on Russian
Affairs" which recently released statement
from group of Russian socialists and White
Guards demanding that the Citizens of Free
America" should not mistake the Communist
power for the true Russian government" The
Civic Federation once supported the Kolchak
government in Russia, but since the Red Army
drove out the unhappy Admiral from Siberia it
has turned its affections to Grand Duke Cyril
and other claimants to the throne, most of them
now residents in Paris or the Riviera.
Still another labor representative" on the
committee is Ellis Seares who now appears on
the Ietterhead as the Secretary of the Civic
Federation. Although ancient clause in the
constitution of the United Mine workers pro-

stated that Mrs. LOOMS had been contributing
money to Russian monarchists in this country
and that among her proteges was the secret
Russian monarchist agent, George Djamgaroff."
Later spivak learned at the State Department
that Mr.. Stimson knew that Mrs. LOOMS was
giving money to the Russian monarchists. of
whom Djamgaroff was the American leader y
and that should this fact be published it would
undoubtedly prove embarrassing to the State
Department
The link with Russian monarchistm is also
seen in another Civic Federation Committee
known as the Department of Subversive Move
ments" The chairman of this recently appoint

one year ago as Police Commissioner OF New
York City was engaged in revealing to the world
some of the neatest forgeries the Russian en-
