FED WORMY FOOD
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Dec. 6 —
An appeal is to be made to the
Russian embassy in Washington, it
■was announced tonight, by friends
of two women. Russian citizens,
who are now among the suffragist
political prisoners at Oceoquan. The
friends of tlie women are to ask
the Ambassador to take up with
the stat^ department both the ques
tion of the right of the United
States to imprison Russian citizens
lor peaceful jiolitical agitation in
ibis country, and the question of
its right to compel them to eat ran
cid and wormy food at the risk of
health and possibly life, while they
j aro so imprisoned.
One of t’nese two Russian women
has written to Congressman Meyer
London on a stray bit of paper
found in the workhouse a plea for
help. Its simple eloquence may be
effective both at the embassy and
at the Capitol.
Here is her letter from iho Am
erican bastille:
"Comrade Meyer London:
I am eight years ir this raove
; mcnt, three and a half years a
member ol the Socialist party,
branch 2 and 4 of the Bronx, and j
i have been an active member of j
1th" Waistmakc-r;,' union since 1910
I am from New York, but am now
in Baltimore, where I got acquaint
ed with the Comrades who asked
me to picket the White House—
and of course,I expressed my will
ingness to help the movement. I
am now til the workhouse. I
want to get out and help in the
work as 1 am more revolutionary
than the Woman’s party, yet con
ditions here are so bad that I feel
1 must stay and help the women
get their rights.
Wo are enslaved here. 1 am
suffering very much from hunger,
and am nearly blind from baq nour
i.ihment.
The foot! is chiefly soup, cereal
with worms, bread just baked and
very heavy. Even of this poor
food we do not get enough. I do
not eat meat. When I told the
doctor this, be said ‘You must eat;
and if you do not like it here you
go, and tell the judge you won't
picket and more, and then you can
get out of here.’ But I told him
that I could not go against my
principles and my belief. He asked
‘Do you believe you should break
the laws?' 1 replied: ‘I have picket
ed whenever 1 had a chance for
eight years, and have never broken
the law, 1’icqeting is legal' ".

pose of converting 100,000,000
Russian Workingmen to the Lans
ing-Gompers school of radicalism?
That is the prize mystery in
Washington just now. Somebody
saw Compers come away front the
White House and framed up a
statement that the proselying tour
was all nodded upon.
Gompers was to conjure up a
large number of labor spokesmen
lrom the various organized crafts,
each of whom wouid speak directly
to the Russian workers in his own
craft, telling them of the superior
advantages of “loyal” trade union
ism bearing the Compers stamp,
they were to save Russia from the
clutches of Socialism, and lay the
basis for capitalism conditions of
