A Communist orator refused to quit the Tribune and the House suspended him. He then refused to quit the Chamber. When two officials, amid uproar, requested him to leave he still refused. Six other officials entered and tried to force his departure. ',. The remaining 26 Communists then attacked the officials and a free fight lasted until a police N officer arrived with a strong body ■■■ of police.
