Guarding Against Bolshevism. Evidence appears in the dispatches from the region of German com- | munistic outbreaks that the Berlin government is decidedly on guard {against bolshevik propaganda. It { thoroughly understands the danger of a radical influence from over the east- ern border. A group of newspaper {men, English and American, making | their way to ome of the centers of lactivity, were repeatedly investigated {and finally were arrested and held in | custody and under examination for several hours. They were quizzed on | every conceivable point. Their speech was examined for signs of the Rus- |sian accent. Their opinions were { sought to determine whether they had | radical sympathies. Their papers were subjected to minute scrutiny to see if there were any possible conneetion with Russia. Finally when all sus- ! picions of bolshevik sympathy were |allayed they were permitted to go on their way. This unusual precaution indicates the degree of danger to which Ger- many is today exposed from the Rus- ian side.
