Tl(e committee dtd Hills In voting to "recommend for gen eral file proposal No. 86 by Hose of derrick. Washington, Jnn. 30. Writing In the current number of the Fedcrntlon lt, official orgun of the American Fed eration of Labor, Samuel Gompcrs condemns bolshevlsra "completely, finally nnd for all time." Tho American labor lender says he doubts whether the propaganda which emanntcs from the bolshevlst organi zation Itself Is more effective than that "conducted by those who claim to bo entirely detached from Itusslan Infiuenco nnd Kusslaln pay rolls." Ho says ho doubts whether publi cations Issued by Itusslan bolshevlst agents have as great an effect In America us those "which like to bo known ns 'Journals o opinion,' such ns the Nation, tho Dlnl nnd the New Republic." , Mr. Gompcra makes nn extended referenco to the urgument American people know little nbout what Is going on in Russia and the argument it Is unfnlr and, unwise to pass Judg ment. "It Is not necessary," says Mr. Gom pers, "for Americans to know exnet conditions lu Germany before passing Judgment on tho form of government there. It was neccssnry only to know tho form of government and rules It operated under. ''We do not have to wnlt for Infor mation about the form of government existing In what Is called soviet Rus sia. All the Information necessary to passing of Judgment on bolshcvlsm nnd the system o government and as a state society Is at hand from authen tic sources. "Tho plea of those nllsgulilcd pfcr bons In America who suy 'wait for facts before passing Judgment' Is noth ing more than an excuse, which, It Is hoped, will gain tlmo for the Russian experiment nnd enable It to spread to other countries." -r ro Quoting from tho now bolshevlst constitution, Mr. Gompers points ou't, while tho fifth Pnn-Russlun cohgrcss declares for n dictatorship of tho pro letariat and tho poorest peasantry, n "great portion of tho peasantry Is dis franchised, nnd tho largest bolshevlst cstlmnto of tho proletariat calculates them ns only one-fifth of the number 'of peasants. Even n fairly prosperous working man, by this calculation Mr. Gompers says, is not n proletarian. Bolshevist Statistics, ho, says, show tho bolshevlst minority uoes not even represent mo masses of factory workers In Moscow, tho bolshevlst stronghold. Quoting from bolshevlst .official documents to show tho extent of massed terror" by tho bolshevlkl, Mr. Gompers said "economic condition In internal Russia nt tho present tlmo has absolutely nothing to do with tho merits or demerits of the bolshevlst philosophy of government," nnd adds: "It should hnve no inilueuce In de termining tho Judgment of any person upon It as such." Mr. Gompcrs quoted as tho most direct Information n dispatch from Russian trade unionists to W. A. Ap pleton, president of the International Federation of Trndo Unions, which de clares that bolslievlsts havo split up the reserve funds of trade unions, throttled tho labor press, killed labor organizations, split up trado unions ns u class and put down strikes by "force of arms and plentiful execu tions." "In all concepts of freedom within tho American nation," Mr. Gompers said, "one fundamental principle Is that any Involuntary servitude, that is, compulsory labor, shall not bo en forced upon tho working people." Warden Fcnton of the state peni tentiary told members of the state board of control at Lincoln, who are considering charges of Irregularities at the Institution mndp by two former guards, Mr J?. McWilllams and Jason Evans, thnt in'' periods of from tlirco months to n year as many ns ninety convicts have been cured of tho dODe hnblt. Ho stated that If charges plnco ' against Mm tnnt ho obtained money for release of prisoners were proven, he would take his place In a cell.
