Eastman Promises
To Curb "Masses"
Seeking Restoration ofMail
Privileges, He Says Maya
zine Will Be Patriotic

Max Eastman, editor of the Socialist
magazine 1.-THE Masses" which was re-
Gently barred from the mails under the
espionage law, after talking with Post-
master General Burleson, has promised
that his periodical will "be good lie
has homes that the Postof'ice ban
against his publication may be lifted.
"Mr. Burleson was very courteous,
said Mr.. Eastman yesterday. 81 mag
inc he has never read Socialist litera-
ture, and some of the orthodox liturgy
that is quite familiar and matter-ot-
fact to us sounds new and terrible TO
him. He said he had begged Mr.. Lamar
10 find one Socialist magazine that was
not printing treason and sedition, Just
one for the sake of the principle, ana
so far Mr.. Lamar had failed.
"Now, know so many Socialist ed
itors who haven't reasonable or Sc
ditious thought that am compelled TO
think there is n failure of understand
ing somewhere"
Mr.. Eastman has filed an application
for second-cass mailing privilege
for "The Masses" He has also written
TO Mr.. Burleson, saying in part:
'Tnasmuch as previous issues OF The
Masses have come in conflict with the
postal regulations based on the espionage
law, I desire in making application Tor
second class mailing privileges TO inform
the Postmaster that The Masses Is per-
fectly willing 70 abide by the regulations
recently laid down by Postmaster Burieson

To Warn Greek Kings
Venizelos Will Place Plaque
in Chamber of Deputies

ATHENS, Sept. 30.-Premier Venize-
los has announced his intention Of
placing a marble plaque in the Chamber
OF Deputies, where future kings can see
il when they take the oath Of office,
warning them against usurping the
rights of the people.
He saws that when he is in London
and visits the House of Commons he
observes at the entrance TO Westmin-
ster a conspicuous plaque reading:
"Here was beheaded Charles |, King of
England, for having usurped the lib
critics of the people Of England" When
ever a king now goes 10 Westminster
to open or close the work Of Parlia-
ment he passes directly before this
plaque.
Following this example. NJ. Venizelos
will inscribe on the plaque in the
chamber here:
"King Constantine lost his throne for
twice dsmissing the parliament elected
by the people and imposing his per-
sonal policy on the people. while the
dismissed parliament, returning to
power, upheld the constitution"

Dynamite in Costa RIGA
For Use Against U. S.
Rebels Supply, Which Ex-
ploded, Was Intended to
Halt Feared Intervention

The dynamite which exploded at San
Jose. Costa Rica, Tuesday morning, kill
ing sixty and injuring ninety, had been
stored in the barracks for use against
United States troops in the event that
this country interviewed in the affairs OF
the South American republic, according
10 a statement made last night by Senior
Francisco Montero, Consul OF Costa
Rica. with offices at Rector Street.
Costa Rica has been in state OF
chaos since FREDERICK Tinoco overthrow
the provisional government and an
nounced himself President" declared
Montero. 9,
NATURALLY, the United States refused
TO recognize him, and since then he has
spent his time and what part OF the
country's funds he could get his hands
on to prepare against any invasion Oh
American troops.
For several months / have known
that Tinoco was storing dynamite bombs
in the barracks. His own brother,
JOAQUIN, told me about it, as we'll as one
of his aids, who was here in New YORK
recently.
81 am sure that the explosion was an
accident, and due to the fact that the
bombs were badly made. Tinoco could
not get men who were experts in manu-
featuring this explosive, and the tons Of
bombs were undoubtedly carelessly
handled.
"There is a veritable reign Of terror
among Costa Rica's half million inhab-
itants. There is no money in circula-
ton except paper that is NOT worth a
penny. The poverty is appalling, the
people living on bananas and coffee
The thought of intervention by the
United States, once abhorred, is now
welcome. To-day they are supplicating
President Wilson to bring them out OF
their despair"
