TROUBLE-MONGERS
South Shields Riots LINK WITH RUSSIA “Professional Agitators” By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright (Rec. November 23, 5.5 p.m.) London, November 22. “It pays other people to stir up trouble in our country,” said Mr. Justice Roche sentencing five whites and 17 Arabs to terms ranging from three to 16 months’ imprisonment in connection with the South Shields riots, in August on Red Day. He recommended that 16 of the Arabs should be deported. Asked whence the money supporting the Minority Labour Movement was derived, the police inspector replied one of the accused was a member of the Labour delegation’s conference in Russia. / His Honour: That’s what I generally find. Commenting on the statement that two of the whites leading the trouble were professional agitators, his Honour said: “They took care to be away when the trouble came. They are all cowards really.” ______________
