THERE ARE OTHERS.

Nobody, Of course, objects to the
railroaders and the miners getting "a
living wage" but it should not be for
gotten that there are other wage earn
ers to be considered, who are without
the advantage of naughty and tyranni-
cal unions. This diving wage" which
is never high enough to suit the union
autocrats, means that millions of men
and their families must pay exorbi-
tant prices for the necessities of life.
The high wages of the coal miners is
making costly fuel for the people in
every condition of life and the Giving
wage" Of the railroad employees keeps
freight and passenger rates up to the
disadvantage Of all classes. The
Living wage" of one class of workers
should not be boosted so high that il
impoverishes all the other tolers.

GERMANS BOYCOTT
REPUBLICAN FLAG
Referendum Likely on Re-
turn to Imperial
Standard.
BY the Associa ted Press.

| BERLIN. June 24.-Systematic boy
cotting of Germany's new black. red
and gold republican flag has reached
such a stage that a referendum on
the question of returning to the old
standard is regarded as likely in the
course of the present year. If recent
demonstrations may be regarded as a
criterion of public sentiment, the pro-
posed petition for initiating the bal
loung will be signed.
In Berlin the inclination has been to
hoist the old imperial colors or the
Prussian black and white in prefer
ence to the republican flag. At the
capitals leading sports grounds and
at the stadium. where national ath-
letic meet is in progress. the black.
white and red flag is flying from most
of the stats. only one republican
standard being hoisted.
Recently when flags were ordered
half-masted in mourning over the
loss of Upper Silesia a striking dis
play was seen. The State Opera

hoisted on one of its two STATS and
the republican banner on the other.
chose to display two Prussian stand
ards. Even the ministry of defense
neglected to fly a flag.
Mercantile shipping quarters resent
interference with the foemer stand
ard and only reluctantly display the
new flag. 1t is pointed out by some
sections of the public that the COM
munists carry a red nag with the
soviet star in their demonstrations
and that therefore there should be
no objections to the former imperial
or Prussian flags being used.
