FIGHT ON RADICALISM, TRUSTS AND H. G. L. REVIEWED BY PALMER

- . (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, DecJ 11. The campalgn against the high cost of living. efforts to break up trusts and combinations in restraint of trade and the government's fight on radicalism are reviewed by Attorney General Palmer in his annual report sent today to Congress. .' In a discussion of the radical problem, Mr. Palmer discloses that the Department of Justice has developed a card index system, containing more than 200,000 cards, giving detailed data on the activities of ultra-radicals and their organizations as well as a complete library of reference on the general radical movement. Ninety per cent of the communist and anarchistic agitation during the last year, the Attorney General says, Is traceable to aliens. This agitation, he adds, is not confined to the socalled "economic evils" but has been directed also toward the stirring up of racial prejudice. . One of the fertile fields, he says, is among the negroe3 who "have been appealed to directly for support in the movement to overthrow the government of the .United States." The foreign language press has been "particularly noticeable for its strong ultraradical leanings," the Attorney General says. He declares that the spread of radical doctrines has been "aided" in 26 or more foreign language newspapers in the United States. Get After Radicals. The results of the January raids on Ihe Communist and Communist Labor Party meetings, Mr. Palmer says, caused a "marked temporary cessation" in radical activities here. Meetings of the communist and anarchistic groups were suspended and were followed later by the declaration of the American delegate to the Third Internationale at. Amsterdam that the January raids had destroyed the hopes of the communists in America. Mr. Palmer recite3 the legislative program laid before Congress at Its last sepslon in which he said existing laws did not permit the government to carry on the sort of prosecution refrnlred in the case of some of the radical groups, notably the Industrial Workers of the World, whose activities the department has been unable to touch in most instances. Turning to law enforcement activities, the Attorney General says the government collected approximately $4,532,000 in fine and judgments in the last year. 'Of this $2,452,000 came from fines in criminal prosecutions, while the remainder was collected in

civil proceedings. The number of federal prisoners, described as major offenders, held in the various penal institutions on June ?!0. was 4,737 as compared with 4,788 cn the same date a year previous, says the report. Of these 3.S89 were confined in federal prisons. 1S9 in state prd territorial penitentiaries, 225 in .-tntP reformatories. 190 in national -"'n"e schools and the remainder In miscellaneous institutions.
