speech in parliament that he 'had
not heard condemnation, officii! or

Red Ambassador
To Be Deported
Final Action in Case of Lud-
wig Martens Virtually Decid
ed on by President Wilson.
Washington, "D. C, Dec. 16, De
portation of Lud wig C A. K. Mar
tens, self-styled Russian soviet am
bassador to the United States, is un
derstood to have been virtually de
cided upon by Secretary of Labor
Wilson, who has had the case under
advisement since the conclusion a
week ago, of the hearing in the de-.
portation proceedings.
Justifications lor Martens' depor
tation is understood ' to have been
found by Mr. Wilson in the conten
tions of . immigration and Depart
ment of Justice, authorities that the
bolshevik agent held office under the
soviet regime, which they say aims
at the overthrow o the government
of the United States -toy force and
violence, . V 7
President Wilson, whom Secretary
Wilson has consulted, is understood
to' have expressed. Himself as willing
to approve the determination of the
secretary of labor. The question
of Martens' ' deportation is said to
have been brought up at yesterdays'
cabinet meting.-
Secretary Wilson is said to plan
td release Martens on his own recog
nizance until the day set fof his de
parture from the United States for
Russia. ' Actual deportation of the
bolshevik agent may be delayed,
however, by an appeal to the courts
to stay the order of deportation.
