W. W. At one of the farewell meetings -to Georgian to protest against his deportation lie made the statement that ".he expected to return to America and that when he did so he would- come back under the red flag of Bolshevism." On June 14. 1919. it was announced by the Department of Labor that he would be deported. Notwithstanding this he continued at large until :September. when he was again taken into custody for deportation and sent -to New York. where. instead of deporting him. he was released on bail. or upon his own recognizance. and is now editing the Novi Mir. a radical paper il New York City that is engaged in spreading the principles of Bolshevism in America. Whether -or not he ever will be deported. I do not know and can not find out. Two weeks ago the Department of Labor informed me that they were writing me that day regarding it. I am still waiting for the letter. In any event. with a law providing for deportation .and an order of deportation. the Commissioner General of Immigration and the Secretaiy of Labor continue to permit Georgian to remain at large here with full opportunity to continue his Bolshevistic propaganda. The excuse: Aftermuch labor this department of the Government Isas finally brought forth the idea that this Government is powerless to deport dangerous Iussian agitators. because we have not recognized the present Russian Bolshevist government. Nothing but a bureaucracy could ever bring forth a more nonsensical proposition.
