RAID ON RADICALS
POLICE ACTIVITY IN JAPAN. (By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright). TOKIO, June 7. (Received June 8, 8.45 p.m.) The police activities against the Communists have extended to the Labour leaders, two prominent Labour leaders being arrested to-day. It is expected that there will be many more arrests including writers on labour topics. The police have searched the buildings of the Waseda University, which was the scene of disorders recently when a number of the faculty attempted to organise a militaristic society among the students. The police temporarily suppressed the university newspaper and students have called a mass meeting to protest against police interference with the liberty of learning.
