Despite the fact that there were no reports of attempted assuasination of public officials, it was said that the government intended to maintain its guard over the persons threatened. The appeals of the radicals for a demonstration against the government in behalf of soviet Russia also was without avail, the reports indicated. Incendiary speeches and demands that the United States resume relations with Russia were made at meetings in several cities, Assistant Attorney-Gen- eral Garvan declared, but the net re- sult was negligible.
