COMMUNIST PLOT.
MARCH ON OTTAWA. Canadian Premier's Appeal to Citizens. DOCK STRIKE COLLAPSES. (United P.A.—Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Received 12.30 p.m.) OTTAWA, June 24. Faced with a threat by 2000 relief camp deserters to invade Ottawa oil freight trains, despite Government prohibition, the Prime Minister, Mr. R. B. Bennett, to-day appealed to all Canadians to realise that the Dominion was challenged by a wellorganised Communist plot. Five hundred police at Regina were ordered to see that the men kept off the trains. Fifteen hundred unemployed at Winnipeg threaten to start a similar, trek. The leader, Arthur Evans, to-day announced that lie was a Communist and proud of it. In Vancouver, the dock strike is collapsing. With 500 men replacing the strikers, the ships are moving freely.
