MILITANT COMMUNISTS.
ACTIVITY IN AUSTRALIA. ACTS OF SABOTAGE. ATTEMPT TO BLOW UP TRAIN. United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright. ADELAIDE, Sept. 5. The Public Safety Bill, which gives the Government power to prevent disorder and intimidation on the waterfront, has been passed by both Houses of Parliament. The Premier, Mr L. Hill, outlined the Communist activities. He said a deliberate attempt had been made to blow up a train, but it had failed. Electric current mains had been tampered with and bent, and nails had been spread on roads adjacent to the waterfront to prevent the transport of goods by motor vehicles. x At Melbourne the Communists are distributing pamphlets exhorting the waterside workers and seamen to help their Adelaide comrades,-- and join the “ all out policy to drag in the unemployed and fight the police tooth and nail.”
