RAIDS IN MANY CITIES
CATCH RADICALS IN NET
Department of Justice Agents Active
in Thirty-three Places. ActivityExtends
From Coa&t to Coast.
Washington, Jan. 2.?Launching a
concerted and carefully prepared]
movement against communist and'
communist labor groups of radicals,
agents of the department of justice
tonight conducted raids in 33 cities j
.wf a? Ir* cr frAlYi tn fnosi:.
CAIfcUUlUf, ^ ^ - V ^
Raids were conducted in the following:
cities:
New York, Baltimore, Boston, Buf*al5,
Chicago, Cleveland, Denver, Dcs
Moines, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Hartford,
Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Fia.,
'vansas City, Los Angeles, Louisville,
Milwaukee, Newark, Omaha, Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh, Portland, Me., Portland,
Ore., Providence, San Franc is o,
Scranton, Spokane, St. Lcuis, St. j
*aul_ Fnrirafield. Mass.. Svracuse,!
Toledo and Trenton. j
The object of the raids, Assistant i
Ytfcorney Garvan said, was to obtain j
"or submission to the department of ;
"abor cases for deportation of "a J
very large number of our most j
langerous anarchists and radical agi- j
'ators." Agents cf the department,;
he added, went out prepared to catch j
;he radicals "with the goods."
The general charge of attempting !
overthrow the government by;
orce and violence was placed against j
? i il !J. i
be persons arrested curing ine raius. i
Officials declared they believed that'
: everal hundred members of the
Communist and Communist Labor
-arty would be behind the bars be-1
? i
lore morning.
Careful Flans Made.
Officials here declared the r.rt;cn-'
^vide round up was the most ccnple e'y
planned and the machinery was the
:,.est oiled for .this of any ra;d~
'aunched agr:nst the radical clcme::'..
n this country. It was avrar-ed
* .10me ten days r?;o that 'he in' '
should take place ton'rht and conf>
lential comauinicaticr3 were re::': to
lepartmc " of justice repvc?3n' ^ "v
nn<d United S-r.te^ attorneys in : C
cities.
Derurlrncv.t of justice
sired meet of r.ll to capture incrV.vnatin?
documents not 20 much of -h:
literature and propaganda but
papers showing details of the communist
organizations in each city. It
was indicated that if such evidence
were obtained, deportation of the
persons concerned would be an.easy
matter. As in the case of the members
of the Union of Russian Work
ers, several score of whom were
aboard the transport Buford, which
sailed from New York ten days ago,
membership cards in the organization
were regarded by officials as constituting
the best documentary evidence
on which to base deportation
cases.
Officials said the only difference between
the communist party and the
communist labor party was one of
badership. Both have been endeavoring
to bring about the establishment
of a soviet form of government in
"his country since their organization
last September, according to officials.
Documents gathered by federal
: gents recently show conclusively, it
was said that plans were drawn up by
he leaders cf each of these parties to
he development of a score or more
? scviets throughout the country.
' hese were to be urged under a soviet
crunch similar to that which now c:^:ts
in r.ussia according* to Mr. Garvan.
W: Amour; Ne^rccs.
The department revealed tonight
ctivities of these two organizations
among the negroes. Their attempts
to organize tne negroes in
upport of plan to overthrow the,
resent political and economic sysem
were carried far and officials admitted
that this propaganda h: 1
one to such a length that trouble
lay yet be expected among certain
::eg?o communities.
Mr. Garvan made public iniorma'
:on gathered by federal agents
howing the nature of the work done
imong the negroes. One document
contains the following: I
"In close connection with the un-'
killed workers is the problem of the
^.egro. The negro presents a politi-j
al economic problem. The racial
ppression of the negro is simply the
. xpression of his economic bondage
:'.nd oppression each intensifying the
->ther. This complicates the negro
-problem but does not alter its proletarian
character. The communist
^arty will carry on agitation among
the negro workers to unite them with
all class conscious workers."
The communist party recently
pread broadcast among its adherents
:? "manifesto" setting fcrAh -"ts views
.:nd plans. Wlvle of^c'^h h.?ve been

the products of industry. Th? com-;
muruSt party is a party realizing j
the limitations of all existing: work- .
ers' organizations and proposes to
develop the revolutionary movement'
necessary to free the workers from ;
the oppression of capitalism. The
! communist party insists that the
problems of American workers are
identical with the problems of the <
! workers of the world.
I
"The communist party is the conscious
expression of the class strug- ;
-le of the workers against capitalism.
Its aim is to direct this struggle to ;
the conquest of political power, the
overthrew of capitalism and the
destruction of the bourse else state. <
, "The communist party is fun da- <
mentally a party of action. It brr^: ;
to the workers a cons?iousness of i
their oppression, of the impossibility 1

capitalism developing fuller forces

In connection with the announce- :
ment of the raids tonight Attorney i
General Palmer made'public a letter i

Eoyne, state attorney for Cook coun- ]
ty, pt Chicago, in which Mr. Hoyne j
was requested to defer that local ]
raid conducted there last night. Mr. j
Palmer explained in his let+er that7 ]
the department of justice had plan- .
red a nationwide campaign against ]
the same people which were to ]
be raided by Mr. Hoyne's agents in <
Chicago. Department" cff.cials said
they vfcre without information as to ]

A-nong Foreign Element.
The communist labor group was i
said to have directed its propaganda (
more generally among the foreign
element of citizenry. From several ;
sources, federal agents gleaned in- ,
formation appealing to the foreign ?
workers with the argument that the j
present government was Unfriendly to <
them and that their rights would ]
never be respected by the appointed j
authorities. The insertion of the .
* * M fhQ n
WOrcl "iaDOr " m me aamc v/i. iuv.
party was regarded by officials as ,
only a subterfuge, the leaders realizing
that it would lend strength (
to their argument among foreign- \
ers. ]
Mr. Garvin expressed the opinion j
that the leaders of the two parties T
had a "working agreement" and \
planned eventually to bring all the ]
radicals under one communist party
and ^hereby amass enough strength (
to upset the constituted government.
Cilicials are working on the theory
thn4- r. lv>hev power is directing the '
work of both organizations and that,
the leaders wiio are Denma in is directing
hand only recently have come
to this country from Russia. This r
belief, they raid, was supported by c
evidence gathered by representatives i
of this and allied governments in the r
he art of soviet Russia. It is known 1
that agents of the allied nations have I
been working for nearly two years z
among the followers cf Lenin e an J I
Trotzky and their efforts have re- 1
sulied in connecting links in the I
chain of soviet propaganda in this
country and the soviet leaders of r
Russia. t
