An approving reference to the Kronstadt sailors in this issue (compared to the not-so-positive references in earlier issues):
Pankhurst wrote: The Russian Government some time ago declared an amnesty for the Kronstadt sailors who had participated in the heroic uprising of 1921, and who had succeeded in leaving Russia, after Kronstadt had been brutally suppressed. A large number of these sailors, trusting the promises of the Bolsheviki, returned to Russia. But no sooner had they entered Soviet Russia when they were all arrested, and after long imprisonment were on September 20th sentenced to three years concentration camp in the far north.
