THE DAILY WOR K uR, NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, AUGL 3, 1927 History of Revolution - | | Being Reviewed as 10th Anniversary Approaches MOSCOW, August 2.—In order that the youth of Russia which | ; was too young at the time of the revolution ten years ago to under- stand the development of the strug- gle may realize the enormity of the struggle the papers through-| | jout the territory of the Soviet Union are publishing daily chron+ icles of events of a decade ago and reprinting leading articles from then written by Lenin and other leaders of the Bolsheviks. This is in preparation for the gigantic celebration on November 7 of the Tenth Anniversary of the establishment of the rule of the workers and peasants in Russia. Mani Police Get : Nerves; Atmosphere Of Dissatisfaction MANILA, P. I. (By Mail).—Fol- lowing Admiral Kittelle’s grand stand Play about “a plot to blow up Cavite arsenal” he caused to be assembled in the baseball grounds a ‘thousand civilian employes of the arsenal, and administered to them, under pain of dismissal and propable imprisonment, the oath of allegiance to the United States. The next step was to institute a “red raid.” Major J. K. Boles and Lieutenant J. L. Bilo of the army, met with Colonel L. R. Sweet and Colonel Aurelio Ramos of the con- stabulary. With them sat Chief John Nevins of the secret service, and they diséussed the best methods of deport- ing labor leaders, especially Chinese “agitators.” Extreme dissatisfaction among the Filipino workmen, admiration for the struggle of Chinese Nationalists in China, and a threatened strike at the Cavite navy yard are the causes for all this campaign of deportations and false propaganda. Lowman, Dry Chief, Attacks All Those . Who Criticise Him WASHINGTON, August 2.—For- mer Lieutenant Governor Seymour | Lowman of New York was yesterday sworn in as assistant secretary of the | treasury and prohibition director to succeed Lincoln C, Andrews. Lowman began his career in office by announcing, “Temperance and so- briety are commendable virtues” and “We want a sober America.” After this he delivered a lecture against the | “vadical wets,” whom he defined as those who break the laws against liquor, and the “radical dries,” by which he said he meant “those well- meaning but ill-advised people who are criticizing the efforts of public officials who are trying honestly to carry out the laws of congress. Con- structive criticism is always helpful but fault-finding by overzealous ad- vocates of prohibition is very harm- ful to the cause of temperance.” OF 1927 $1 Postpaid Red Cartoons Of 1926 Now 50 CENTS MENSHEVIKS IN PAY OF POLAND FOUND GUILTY Admit Crimes and Re- ceive Sentences MOSCOW, August 2.

All of the aceused pleaded guilty before'the court. Refugees Sent Back To Imprisonment by U.S. Deportations According to New York reports, 10,904 persons were deported from the U. S, A. in 1926 for alleged illegal entry to the U. S. A. In addition, 20,000 people, who arrived on Ellis Island with American visas, did not receive permission to enter the coun- try, and had to return to Europe. The persons who “entered the U. S. A. illegally” included thousands of political emigrants who naturally were unable to obtain passports in the countries from which they had te flee. In 1927 these deportations of political refugees are contin especially fugitives from Fa Italy. For instance, Enea Sormenti, an Amreican anti-Fascist leader, is to be deported from the United States although he has been sentenced to death in Italy.

Church at 3rd and Kilmer, while excited whites gave vent to their outrage with cries of “Tar them, feather them!” U to arouse interest in the usual election promises, Dr. Nicum has ta this way to insult the Negroes of Dayton and arouse the whites to a pitch where a race war is a possibility. During the meeting someone shout- ed that a reporter for the N. A. A. C. P. (National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People) was in the audience and ready to car- ry back information on every resolu- tion taken. Cries of “Lynch him” arose. In a very earnest and able letter to the Dayton Journal, J. E. Bush, pres- ident of the local branch of the N A. C. P., pointed out that if the groes were buying out the West Side ‘the whites were selling it, and if Ne- groes were on the hills around Day- ton, it was white women who came to meet them. This was to be re- gretted by both races, he added.

No purpose of any sort is to be served by his continued inecarcera- tion; therefore, there is no real jus- tice in holding him. In fact, if Gar- yey had been sentenced for five months, instead of for five years, and then deported,—or if it had been le- gally possible simply to deport him, without any prison term, the ends of useful justice would have been as well met. Marcus Garvey was not more of a criminal than a half dozen or more of those who were associated with him in the Black Star Line busi- ness project. His worst enemies, if ithey are honest, must admit that. But even more than that: Garvey was not at heart a crim- inal. He did not set out to steal or ‘cheat, it is our belief. But, know- ingly or unknowingly, he ran afoul of technical law by selling, or per- mitting to be sold, stock in a concern that was bankrupt. Why? Not be- cause he expected to cheat anybody out of just so much money, but be- cause Garvey is a visionary, a bold dreamer, who thetght he could resus- citate a corporation which was dead, but in his bold confidence not quite dead but just “Kayode” for the time being. The writer has no doubt that yarvey believed, foolishly of course, w can say Italian Leader to Suffer for Saving Union's Treasury ROME, Aug. 2. retary of the Italian Seamen’s Fed- eration, G.

But that is a crime: | accepting deposits in a bank when you know that the institution is al- tready insolvent. And altho it may seem to be a charge against the intelligence of the rather brainful Garvey, still it is likely true that, as a man from the West Indies, he understood very little about the technicalities of American law on that subject. Suppose we should get an honest answer to the following question,—how many sup-|} posedly intelligent Americans could answer “yes,” if we asked them: | “Did you know that just what Gar- vey did was a penitentiary offense before you learned that he was being jprosecuted for it?”--There are some native-born Americans who could not answer in the affirmative. Now, some of the sharks working for Garvey’s organization and giving Garvey “advise,” kmew that it was a violation of law to sell more st under the condition,—and those fel- | lows are all out of jail and have not even been put in. | Gatvey who helped to jail himself by being braver than the others, less shrewd than the others, during the trial, can now be released not only | without any social hurt but even with social justice. |Negroes Segregated by Government Bureau, |Coolidge Will Not Act WASHINGTON, D.
