Emma Goldman Misses United States

1920--

Deported Anarchist Finds America Is Better Land Than Russia

The "dear old U. S. A." is much to be preferred to "Free Russia," according to Emma Goldman, deported anarchist.

A letter to Ben L. Reitman, ex-anarchist, from Miss Goldman, says she has found Russia different from what she expected.

"I miss America," she wrote. "It is very difficult to acclimatize one's self in a new country, and Russia is not a place where one may hope to take root easily."

Miss Goldman was deported on the "Soviet Ark" Buford.
