SOVIET HATRED

DIRECTED AGAINST z BRITAIN RUSSIAN ACTIVITY INTERESTING DISCLOSURES PROPAGANDA IN ENGLAND. By Telegraph—Per Press Assn. —Copyright, LONDON, June 6. The 4 ‘Daily Mail” says that the Soviet is abandoning its world campaign and is concentrating on Britain, prolonging the mine stoppage and paralysing other industries in which • t is planning an intensive revolutionary campaign. The third Internationale has almost stopped its propaganda in Morocco, following Krim’s surrender, and has transferred a great amount of the money available against France to the British section. The Communist organisation has also suspended its propaganda in the British Dominions and colonies and is using the money to intensify the agitating in Britain. \ secret •locument, which is in the ‘‘Daily Mail’s” possession, reveals that he Third Internationale allotted •747.989 for propaganda abroad in 926. of which £42.000 was allocated 3 the Dominions and colonies and ,102.500 was earmarked for extraodin'.ry subsidies to strike committees. Clandestine Methods. The greater part of the £400,000 has reacheu England since April. Nevertheless, money is reaching the miners and lhe headquarters of me Communists. 'July a small portion of the funds arc actually sent to Britain, the large .iriounts reaching private persons, whence they are passed on through the underground section of the British Communists, whose methods are so clandestine that its members, both men am> women, are unknown to some of the Communist leaders. Scotland Yard is now tracing these subventions.

Scotland Y'ard is watching a woman known to receive these en- \ elopes. Support For Striking Miners. Sir Alfred Mond, in a letter to the “Daily Mail,” demands that the Government shall publish the information in its possession regarding the activities of Russian agents in Britain. He says that the Russian support of the miners not only prolongs the struggle but assists the Russian coal trade. The competition of Russian anthracite is already ousting Welsh coal from the Mediterranean market. The “Daily Mail” states that a group of Conservative members of the House of Commons iptend to press for a disclosure of the information, and unless they are satisfied they will move an adjournment of the House to obtain a debate.
