COMMUNIST PRISONERS
A FATAL MUTINY. (Australian Press Assn.) (By Cable—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Received August 5, 8 a.m.) WARSAW, August 4. Riot broke out at a long term, prison, where many Communists and terrorists are serving sentences. The police were forced to fire, killing two. The remainder were subdued by a fire hose. “MONOMANIAC MINORITY.” LONDON, August 3. Discussing the result of the Leed’s by-election, of Red Thursday, as well as other events, the “Daily Telegraph” comments: A more spectacular failure than Communism had here could be hardly imagined, yet it remains an element of danger. Its indulgence in the industrial situation elsewhere within the Empire notably in Australia and more so in India, has been and remains a ruinous one. There is no more startling example in the history of the power of monomaniac minority to deflect the course of events. STALIN ILL. LONDON, August 4. The “Morning Post’s” Riga, correspondent learns authoritatively that the unbounded fiasco of Red Day has seriously weakened M. Stalin’s dictatorship. His health at present is not good, and he is visibly affected by this and other recent Soviet reverses.
