DEMANDING DEATH.

- o ‘ i Resolutions Passed In Russian Factories. I Press Association —Copyright. London, January 27,. The Riga correspondent of the Times Says that in response to an agitators’ campaign hundreds of thousands of resolutions have been passed in factories and villages demanding the death penalty for the 17 prisoners and ail who have Trotsky learnings. The authorities’ impassioned campaign extends even to the schools, where the crimes of the prisoners are euumeratid in pictures que language and the progress of the ; trial is reported. Consequently the j children passed hundreds of resolul tions couched in the same blcmd- | thirsty language as those of their i elders, urging the i’i.lge to “shoot | these bandits, destroy these hounds I of Germany and put an end to Trotsky and all Trotskyists.”
