OPPOSES TAX ON
 GARBAGE REMOVAL
To the Editor of The Age Herald:

To the Editor of The Age Herald:
 I see in an afternoon paper that the best proposition the city commissioners have received for removing garbage will cost residences about 30 cents per month and business houses from SIP to 8.
 We all agree that it is absolutely neces- sary for the health of the city to re- move garbage. but do not think it right to charge citizens for this when they pay taxes for just such purposes.
 We could better afford to do without some more electric lights, for If our po- lice department Is not ample to give pro- tection I am sure that private citizens will take the law into their own hands if necessary, and protect themselves, even if they all have to go armed
 Another thing, If the blind tiger squad is composed of six men their salary must aggregate at least s360 per month Would not the entire city be better off if these six men were dropped from the city pay roll and that amount used towards pro- tecting the health of the citizens? If we had to give up one or the other, wouldn't 1t be better to let a few bootleggers get away than lay the entire population at the mercy of a possible epidemic? Which would do the entire city more harm, bottle of liquor or filth. dirt and disea SC !? Then the balance of the police force may occasionally catch a "cold bottle" Yours truly, w. B. LEEDY, JR.

CANDIDATES MUST WORK HARD TO WIN

During the remaining nine days of the campaign those candidates who have been
 getting along very well without doing much real husting are due for the awak- ening. The young women in the campaign and their friends who appreciate the fact that good things have to be gone after are not going to let the honors, opportunity and prizes that are now headed in their | direction, get past them without making an effort to stop them. There Is evidence here and there that there will be son,s
 stunts done in making the canvass before next Saturday so that all the votes pos- sible may be secured. The mails will be used literally. The postal card canvass is popular and quite general but it is only introductory. The good. thorough personal canvass is the one that really counts the most and from now on 1t will
 be work. constant work on the part of candidates and their friends that will tell

GROSS EXAMINE
 ROCKEFELLER, jR.
Millionaire Is Given Chilling By Chairman Walsh of industrial
 Commission.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-J. D. Rockefeller, Jr., son of the oil king. and director of the Colorado Fuel Company, was a witness yesterday be- fore the Industrial Relations commis- sion and was given grilling by Chairman Frank P. Walsh. The mem. bers of the commission all criticised the methods of interrogation by the chairman and insisted that Rockefel- Ter was entitled to decent treatment.
 In spite of the efforts of Walsh to bring home perjury charge against Rockefeller his examination was in vain. The witness denied having written the letter sent by Governor Ammons to President Wilson or to have inspired it's contents directly or indirectly. He admitted that the Col orado Fuel Company had made a statement of conditions in the strike zone to Governor Ammons, but only when requested to do so by the execu- tive.

 The secretary and General Wood were roundly denounced and bitter ly attacked by Norman Angell and other prominent advocates of disarnna- ment The speakers claimed that similar policy carried out by Ger many brought about the present con- fiict forcing other nations to push armament to the limit in order to be prepared for an attack until the ex- pense and burden became so great that war was preferable to the terri

LUEBECK, Germany, May 21.- This city has become the chief port for the export and import of sup plies into or out of Germany. From a city of relatively small importance on the Baltic sea it has grown to be the empires chief port.
 Luebeck is one of the three free cities of Germany, Hamburg and Ere. men being the other two. The rival ports are now closed while this city is doing a big business with neutral countries, especially with Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
 A large amount of German exports are finding sale in these three coun' tries, while foodstuffs, copper and war munitions are being imported. The big cold storage plant in this city is filled with beef and enough food is on hand to feed the city for six months.

PETROGRAD, May 21-The most desperate battle of the Galician cam- paign is now being fought at Jaro' slav. The Austrian German forces, commanded by the Austrian Archduke Frederick, are making attack after at- tack and so far have failed to make any gains. The Russian artillery fire has played havoc with the enemy and thousands have been killed and wounded.
 Germans Cross Lubacziva.
 The Teutons have succeeded in crossing the Lubaciva river but have found it impossible to retreat and the Russian attacks have driven them back to the river, where they are trying to hold themselves in trench es until the troops across the river can aid them. The Russian artillery is shelling the German position and the entire wing of the kaiser's army may be forced to surrender. The German losses have been enormous and the attacks on the entrenched Russian positions have resulted in more loss of life than in any battle in the war.
 Germans Cut Off Near Radava.
 The German forces which crossed the Lubaciva are holding Radava in the hopes of holding the Russians off until they can be relieved. The Austro- German forces across the river have lost heavily in an effort to come to their assistance.
 Russians Making Counter Attacks.
 At many points along the 20O-mile attle-line the Russians are making se- were counter attacks. The result has been that the enemy are today sever- al miles further back than they were yesterday and the battlefelds are in the hands of the Russians.

RIGGS BANK CASE
 CAUSES A ROW
Ex-Senator Bailey Threatens To Withdraw Case From Court and
 Claims Unfair Treatment.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-All day yesterday former Senator Bailey, of Texas, representing the Riggs Nation al Bank, fought to prevent the dis missal of the charges brought by the bank against the administration off cials. The former senator clashed frequently with the court, the court calling the ex-senator to order and Bailey threatening to withdraw the case, claiming that the judge had de. termined to give the administration the best of it and was carrying out his determination. For a few mo. ments it looked as if the court would fine Bailey and Bailey would in re- taliation withdraw the case and start a newspaper campaign against the administration for vindication.
 Bailey insists that material evil dence is being shut out by the arbi.J trary ruling of the court and that the court seems determined to dis miss the suit.
 The constant clashing of the attor- neys kept the court room in an up7 roar.
