RAZE ONE WALL OF
M'MAHON BUILDING

Members OF City Council, as a COM
mittee of the whole, accompanied by A.
s. Reed, Joseph Hamilton, Marshall c.
Tindall and other builders, Architect
John ]. Kennedy, and Building Inspec-
tor Preston, on Saturday visited the
warehouse Of the Mcmahon Brothers, at
Third and Orange streets, which was
ordered torn down i'm i20 days, by
Building Inspector Preston.
After carefully examining the struc-
ture and considering the opinions and
suggestions Of the builders. the Council
men seemed to be satisfied that the
walls Of the newer part OF the building.
which comprise about two-thirds OF its
length, are all right, but that the west
wall must come down. No decision
was announced but 10 Is expected that
on Wednesday night, when the commit
tee will have its regular meeting, the
suggestions Of the builders and ;rchi-
tects will be embodied in a formal ac-
tlon by Council. Had Il been necessary
TO tear down all the walls, IL would
have entailed a loss OF thousands OF dol
lars on the owners.

SOVIET AMBASSADOR
WILL HELP DEP0RT

NEW YORK, Nov. 11--Lugwig c..
A. X. Martens, self-styled "ambassa-
dor Of the Russian soviet government
TO the United States" has offered to
provide transportation from the
United States to Russia for all Rus
sian citizens who desire to leave
America and whose presence in the
United States is undesira bic to the
federal government. This offer was
made in letter written by Martens
to Secretary of State Lansing and
made public here Sunday.
Martens protested against the "un-
warranted and cruel treatment to
which many Russian citizens in the
United States are subjected "by fed
eral and state officers, as we'll as by
mobs acting without authority" He
proposes that the soviet government
be permitted to return these citizens
OF soviet Russia, and declares that he
has received thousands of applications
from such citizens who are anxious
to return to their homes.
Will Bring Papers
Martens was arrested for contempt
Saturday and released on 81 600 bail
after he had refused to appear and
bring certain documents before the
Lusk legislative committee, investi
eating radical activities in New
York; He based his refusal on the
ground that all communications pas
sing between himself and his govern
ment were privileged. When brough,
before the committee in the custody
OF deputy promised to appear before
| the committee Monday and to bring
his papers with him.

who for the past few months have
been laboring under a constantly in
creasing pile of parcel post mail Not
a single contributing JOY goes with this
'Christmas day business they say
however. Recent express company
strikes in the east seem to have been
an outstanding factor in increased
mails. During the strikes Uncle Sam ':
method was resorted to, found good
and stayed with.
Hundreds Of packages pass through
the Richmond office daily whereas a

taken care of by one man. Extra en-
