DEPORTATION
SUPREME COURT RULING IN U.S.A. GOVERNMENT APPEAL UPHELD POSITION OF COMMUNISTS By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day, 1.15 p.m.) WASHINGTON, October 17. The Supreme Court has granted the Government's petition for a review of a Circuit Court decision releasing Joseph George Strecker, of Hot Springs, Kansas, from threatened deportation because he admitted membership of the Communist Party. The Government contended that such membership was a deportable offence, on the grounds that the party advocated the overthrow of the Government by force. The ruling has an important bearing on the position of H. Bridges, the Aus-tralian-born Pacific Coast Labour leader, whose deportation has been urged by vraious organisations, although he denies Communist membership.
