PUBLIC ROUSED
COMMUNISTS IN AUSTRALIA RED SPEAKERS ATTACKED SYDNEY, Nov. 25. In three centres public feeling against Communists has been translated into hostile acts. At Drummoyno Comrade Thompson was knocked off a soap box. A wild melee followed and a revolver was fired. Angry townspeople at Uralla gave a Red speaker until the morning to leave the district. At Croydon Park a Communist speaker was upset from the platform and with two companions was saved from a rough handling by the intervention of tho police.
