The Communists returned with the red te and the foremost organ 1zers of the red terror were the cheka and Dzjershinskr. The full story of how Dzjershinsk men broke the heart of the white op- position can never be told in full. In every city thev took a large honse, usually an office buflding, for their headquarters. The rooms were often packed with men and women arrested on the whim of some minor offic and herded together until death by disense or bullet semistarvation cleared them out.

A campalgn began in the ranks of the part d for a few months Dzjershinsky’s power was curbed. But for a few months only. For quietly and unostentatiously he re. covered it all again. Dzjershinsky's political police are now a great army. Many of the finest brains of Russia are in their serv- fce. They have their own troops and they control many departments of state.

The group of islands about 1 tugas, off the coast of Florida, has be. come a bird sanctuary under Federal control and the evil reputation of the islands may in time disappear. Originally the islunds were used as prisons, some of the men convicted in the Lincoln assussinaiion spent years there and the story was circulated that the water guard canal about the old prison was the home of hungry alligators and other man eaters, but there was no direct evidence the story was true.
