MANY NEW POSTAGE
STAMPS IN USE
Recently Created European
States Furnish Delight to
Collectors

London, July 4-Correspondenc of
the Associated Press.-Stamp collec-
tors, of which London has its full share,
are enthusiastic over the curious post
age stamps which are beginning to
reach them from the smaller European
states.
One example from Lithuania Is of
the first permanent issue of that coun-
try. 1t has been autographed on heavy
Silurian gray paper, formerly used for
the printing of bread tickets.
Lettland, Lithuania's neighbor,
printed its first stamps on the backs
of German ordnance maps, but these
proved a little unwieldy and now it,
stamps are printed on the flimsiest Of
cigarette papers.
Czecho- SlOvakia stamps recently re-
ceived here are simply the united arms
of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia with
the inscription, ''Cesko Slovenska
Stani," printed on the Magyar stamps.
They were issued when the Czecho-
Slovak troops invaded Hungary.
The disputed port of Fiume has been
provided with striking series of pic
torial stamps, apparently in anticipa-
tion of an Italian mandate, for they all
bear the words, "Fiume proclaima Fan
nessione allItalia," and the date 30
10-191S. The four designs include the
statue of Romulus and Remus fed by
the she wolf, the piazza of st. Mark,
ali ancient Venetian galleon and the
portrait of Doctor Crossich.
