aad through the medium of intercourse
with them to understand better, I hope,

lations aa to purchase, storage, manu
facture sale and distribution of explos
ives.
J"eportuig the bill, the Senate
appropriations committee Increased from
1,400,000 to 2,000J000 the fund of the
department of justice for general sup
pression of crime.' In addition, it added

Intention of government official! to
deal rigorously wifah anarchist! and
ether law breaker! waa disclosed ia
statements made at hearings on the
appropriation bill made publio late to
day. Fraaeia P, Garvin of tha depart
ment of justice bureau of investigation
told the committee that, with increased
funds proposed, the department plana
an active campaign.
"We have found in the short time
thit we hive been nt work," said Mr.
Garvin, "that conditions are quite se
rious throughout the country. Wa are
asking 2,000,000 and we hive every
reason to believe that the Susaian ool
akevik la pouring money in here at
the rata of that much a month."
Mr. Garvin wu asked specifically
whether there was an organized effort
to destroy the Federal government, to
which quest 10 he replied t
"Certain fy. We hive evidence to show
thit and that la also shown br-ths tre-
! mendous amount of money they are
spending. The condition Is serious
throughout the country."
New York, Chicago and Paterton, N.
J., ho said, are centers of anarchistic
activity. When asked if the department
has information that another outbreak
of bomb outrages is planned for July
4, Mr. Garvin laid:
. "There is great deal of talk to
that effect. The lumber of radical pa
pers (found in the mails), haa Increased
over 150 papers since the armistice wai
signed. We have to take now over 4A0
papers, rend and digest them."
Mr. Garvin urged the funds for do-'
portation of alien anarchists be in
creased, adding: .
Mf we can fix it so that we ran round
np those men and upon proper proof
eaa rush them back to Eurore, you will
find- this agitation will subside very
rapidly."
Acting H worsts sy of State Polk in
formed the 'committee that the Stare
Department alee waa doing everything

No attempt waa made by prohibition

their satisfaction in having ordered the

It was pointed out by ethers' that the

public imagines.
Character oFThrse Meisiros.
As the prohibition enforcement meas
