S. Decision. Conditions were announced today by the Department of Commerce, un- der which licenses will be issued on a strictly experimental basis for the use in_radio broadcasting of power up to 5,000 watts, The conditions were drafted in line with the recommendation of the Na- tional Rafio Conference that a gen- eral increase in power over 1,000 watts was desirable in all stations to overcome static and give better serv- ice to listeners. Super-power stations having 25,000 to 50,000 watts, are not considered in the plan and each sta- tion taking out an experimental license will be considered as a sep- arate entity in view of varying local conditions. The conditions provide for reduc- tions in the power added under the licenses at any time this is found de- sirable by the radio supervisor of the station’s district and the department. The stations, it is stipulated, may at the outset use a power input to the antenna not exceeding 1,500 watts. If.the use of additional power is then found to be in the public interest, further increases will be allowed in successive steps of 500 watts. S Oh, Those Women.

How the Government reacted to the Communist activities every one knows. Columns were printed at the time describing the sensational ralds made by Federal, State and city au- thoritles in January, 1920. And what the Communists were doing until that time also is more or less of an open Until that time “red” activi- were allowed by the Government proceed without molestation, al- though under constant watch of Fed- eral agents, However, since the raids jn which | more than 3,000 members of Commu- nist organizations were arrested and later deported, little is known by the public except in a very general way. Nor is it realized to what a startling extent the propaganda of the organi- zatlon was successful. It was a time of industrial up- heaval. There were strikes on every hand in almost every line of ndustry, 1 the Government, realizing that these strikes were largely the result of Communists’ work, decided to| istrike one huge blow at’ the organiza- | tion in an effort to break it down. | This effort, to some extent, was suc- | cossful-—that is, it did deal a great | hlow to the movement.

C S” IN AMERICA Own Wealth Caused Riot Communists—Brought one time that he give up his wealth— distribute it equally for the benefit of the Communist cause, and thus be- come & true Communist from the heart out—but this Mr. Lloyd could not see His way clear to do. Therefore, when in the convention hall in 1919 Mr. Lloyd attempted to present certain resolutions favoring Socialism, and again attempted to ob- tain a vote of approval on certain of the Socialist principles, resentment against him was aroused anew. Mr. Lloyd was persistent—so persistent { that finally Adolph Germer, secretary | of the convention, and Alexander Stoklitzky, the Russian organizer, ob- jected to these interruptions and re- buked Mr. Lioyd sharply. This was the same Alexander Stok- iitzky who but a few months before had been one of the little band which met in an office on West Madison street to bring about the birth of Communism in the United States—a little band of which Mr. Lloyd had been a conspicuous member. Riot and a Seceanlo Thus rebuked for “wasting the time of the convention,” Mr. Lloyd became still more persistent. More rebukes followed, and these were followed by | heated retorts from both sides. The | argument became a riot. Chairs werc | thrown about, fists flew, bouncing off | heads of opposing debaters, and the friendly argument developed into grim battle for possession of Ma chinists’ Hall, in which the meeting was being held. Finally, to save the place from complete destruction, S retary Germer slipped out of a side door and sent in a riot call to the police. Aided by these reinforce- ments, the Communists succeeded in ejecting Mr. Lioyd. together with 40 of his belligerent followers. Nothing daunted, however, Mr. Lloyd dusted off his coat and imme- dlately set out with his little support ing band to seek an empty hall. Thi was found right around the corner rom the other meeting, in a little 1. V. W. hall in Throop street.

And it was recognized in Russia that with such a split in its ranks the Commu- nist movement here never could be successful. Therefore, every effort was made to bring about a reunion of interests. | Russia Negotiates n Compromiar.
