Exchange Telegraph from Petrograd
reports that there has been disagree
ment in the Council Of Workmen's and
Soldiers delegates regarding the evac-
uation Of Petrograd, and that the re-
tirement of Leon Trotzky, the Bolshe-
vik foreign minister, Is imminent.
Pstrograd.-"Germany has formally
refused to grant an armistice and Ger
man detachments continue to ad-
vance," says an official statement.
Resistance thus becomes the princi-
pal task of the revolution. Russia's
greatest strength lies in her wide ter
ritories and the government can, and,
II need be will, retreat. II the threat
against Petrograd increases, the gov
eminent will remove to Moscow or
another city"
London, Feb. 26.-Pskov, It's miles
southwest of Petrograd, has been re-
captured by the Bolsheviki, and street
fighting is going on there. according
to an Exchange Telegraph dispatch
from Petrograd dated Monday. The
Red Guards are resisting the German
advance everywhere. The capture Of
Pskov by the Germans was announced
in the official statement issued Mon
day night at Berlin. A Petrograd dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph
Company, dated Monday, says THAT
resistance to the German advance is
growing is shown by the reports Of
fighting which continues in the vicin-
ity of Pskov This town has changed
hands several times. The German de-
tachments which first entered Pskov
were small, but they have since been
reinforced.
There is a general belief that the
Germans are moving forward hastily
because supplies of ammunition worth
400,0O0,O0O rubles are concentrated in
the neighborhood of Pskov.'
Late advices say that the soviet ar
mics are now everywhere resisting the
invaders. At Narva the garrison and
workmen have formed an army of
10000 and gone to Reval. There are
similar reports from Walk. Great &C.
tivity is manifested at Bolshevik head
quarters in Petrograd and arms and
ammunition are being distributed.
A report that 10000 German sol
diers refused to attack the Russians
in the new campaign was given out by
the Bolshevik telegraph agency. Pol
ish troops in some instances are said
to have fled.
The German invaders are reported
near to Petrograd. ..r

PENNY SLACKERS

The war has developed numerous
kinds of slackers, term by the way,
which seems to have found~its origin
in the war and was first applied to
the men who sought to escape mill
tary service.
The term Stacker, as applied to
man who seeks to escape military
duty, is one of contempt. The public
has come to look upon such man as
a coward-a man who not only lacks
patriotism, but the element of per-
sonal courage; and it is probably true
that many a man has enlisted vol
unfairly to escape being called
Stacker 1t is a measure Of the con-
tempt conveyed, in the application OF
the term Stacker to an individual,
that individuals have preferred to
face the bullets of the enemy rather
than the contempt Of those at home.
But there are dollar slackers whose
cowardice or meanness is much more
contemplate because the dollar that
hides or skulks at it's masters bid
ding has not the element of human
sacrifice. The man who will with
hold his dollars from the support OF
those who have gone forth to fight
his battles and to preserve his life
and his property is more contempt
ible coward than the man who seeks
to avoid military service, because the
element of personal risk is not present
in the case Of the dollar Stacker.
We know that the past year has
proved that there are many dollar
patriots in the United States. The
success of the Liberty Bond issues is
proof of it. Still only about 1919 of
the population bought Liberty Bonds,
and a large percentage of the men IN
arms were purchasers of them, so
there must be many dollar slackers
among those who remain at home in
snug cOntentment, while the issue of
whether their country, their lives, and
their property shall be protected is to
be settled by those who cross the
seas to fight, handicapped as they
will be to the extent that the men at
home withhold their dollars.
The dollar Stacker not only with
holds his cowardly money, but in so
doing withholds support from our

being a traitor to our national cause
and to the ,stilI greater cause of
world democracy.
The War Savings Stamps, together
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1918-05-03

with the Thrift Stamps, expose an
other type of Stacker; namely, the
penny Stacker, the man who places a
penny, a nickle, or a quarter above
the cause of humanity and above the
lives of his own fellows who are in
the service, the men who are offering
their lives as a supreme sacrifice that
our liberties may be preserved.
1t is true that wage earners are
often obliged to sacrifice selfish en-
ioyments or pleasures in order to buy
War Savings and Thrift Stamps to
support the war; but this spirit of
sacrifice is expected Of them because
they are made of that kind of stuff.
All their lives they have sacrificed,
and their own flesh and blood are
offering their lives at the front. The
war comes home close to each of us
to the humblest wage Garner as well
as to others.
Each of us must realize and per-
form our individual duty to back up
our men at the front to the fullest
extent of our power. This we can do
by saving in every possible way in
our personal and family expenses, in
vesting these savings in War Stamps
and Thrift Stamps, thus Withholding
our purchases from unnecessary pro-
duction and loaning the money to the
government to buy the things needed
to win the war. If we withhold this
support, we shall deserve to be
classed as penny slackers, the mean
est and most contemplate of all the
Stacker tribe.

URGES MODERATION
Untermyer Asks That a Stop BE Put
to UnfOunded Suspicious
of DislOyalty
New York Times)

Speaking at a Liberty Loan rally
held recently in Atlantic City, N. j.,
Samuel Untermyer, who has been
acting for the Administration in con-
nection with the Interpretation of the
income tax law, predicted that capital
in this country would not again be
free from a high rate of taxation, not
so much from the necessity of paying
for the war as by reason of resultant
conditions of the increased Socialistic
| functions of the Government that
were bound to come with the estab-
lishment of peace. He mentioned
among such probable new functions
of the state old age pensions and in
surance against sickness and unem-
ployment.
In speaking of the Collinsville
lynching, he said: at is to be hoped
there will be no repetition in this
country of the shocking incident re-
ported from Illinois. Such incidents
do incaculable harm. They give the
enemy the opportunity to claim that
in this country men have no respect
for the law"
In another part of his speech he
said:
"There is one subject on which
some of us feel deeply, but to which
we hesitate to refer because it is un-
pleasant, and, | believe mistakenly,
considered unpopular to speak our
minds. That furnishes the best
reason for taking ones courage in his
hands. The man who refrainS from
speaking under such conditions is
wanting in duty and patriotism. |
refer to the un-American treatment
that is being accorded in certain sec
tions of the country to our loyal
American citizens of German birth in
the face of the repeated eloquent
and statesmanlike warnings and APP
peals of our President against the
folly, weakness and injustice Of hate
and bitterness.
"They are made to feel that they
are under suspicion; that their loyalty
and sympathies are questioned. We
cannot afford to harbor such feelings
They are unworthy of the great cause

myer said further, ''to embitter our

Austrian Hungarian birth by doubt

allegiance to their adopted country
by which they voluntarily foreswore
and surrendered allegiance to their
native land"

ADVERTISING IN A LABOR
PAPER.

PRINTERS INK, the recognized
authority on advertising, after thor
rough investigation on the subject,
says:
"A labor paper is far better ad-
vertising medium than an ordinary
newspaper in comparison with circu-
lation. A labor paper, for example,
having 1000 subscribers is of more
value to the business man who ad-
vertises in it than an ordinary paper
with 10000"
