COMMUNIST OPPORTUNISTS.
GLAD TO GET BACK,
PANKHURST AND COMPANY,
LONDON, Sept. 26,
"Lloyd's Sunday News" describes how one by one, like bedraggled pigeons struggling back to their cotes, British Bolsheviks, aro returning from Russia. Sylvia Pankhurst, disguised as a man, was smuggled as a stowaway to Bergen, and thence proceeded to Moscow. Her interviews with Lenin and Trotsky will probably materialise in a subsidy of several thousand pounds sterling to assist the continuance of her paper, the "Workers' Dreadnought." Other Bolsheviks have returned, some third-class, others as deportees from Norway. Some of the stowaways include Tanner, editor of " Solidarity," whose mission presumably was the same as Miss Pankhurst's, Clarke, editor of the 'Worker,' Gallachcr, printer of the "Worker," and MacLaine, editov •>.? the "Communist." Doubtless of the queue lining up at the Kremlin for subsidies, those who promised imost fared best. — A.and N.Z.
