German Government
Forced to Modify Its
Censorship Proposal

BERLIN, Dec. THE government
saved itself from defeat on its censor
ship bill only by modifying its pro-
visions to restrict the power Of the
state authorities. The bill, modified,
was passed by vote of $50 to 1853.
The Communist deputies fought the
bill bitterly, as did all artists and writ
ers in the country.
The bill as originally drawn pro-
vided for censorship boards In all fed
eral states and a national board to
act as court of appeals, with power to
declare literature and works of art
obscene or Objectionable on other
grounds.
The bill as passed provides for sew
eraI nation l boards of censorship, and
disregards states.

ENGLAND BEGINS, BACK
END FIRST, TO PUBLISH
WAR ORIGIN DOCUMENTS

LONDON, Dec. lit is perhaps
typical Of the topsy-turvydom Of
Europe that the eleventh and last
volume Of British Documents on
the origin Of the war, 1s9s-ts24,"
ls the first to be published. This Is
because the documents In Il had
been collected and edited before sir
Austin Chamberlain gave his con-
sent to the publication Of the whole
history.
Documents that never appeared In
the British Blue Book are now print
ed. They reveal Statesmen, know
ing full we'll all that war involved,
moving fatefully to the slaughter.
Sir Edward Grey, for example, felt
that war would plunge. all Europe
into a financial morass from which
It might never extrioate itself. There
were British statesman who believed
that, If England had sooner de-
clared her Intention Of enNsrInu the
conflict, war might have been avert
ed. There are the plausible argu-
ments that II was because of solemn
treaty obligations to Belgium that
England was forced to Intervene.
There 10 the amusing Incident, the
one piece Of sand in the smoothly
working British diplomatic system,
when an English vlee-oonsul at Bel
grade, after the Serbs had reiterated
before the Austrlans, turned over

the cipher code, for safe keeping to

There is another comic opera skit
when the British representative at
The Hague, on July %, 1914, SOL

Illuminating assurance that "hls ex-

FIGHT BARRING
OF COMMUNISTS
in LABOR PARTY
Australian MiIitants De-
mand Rights
FRANCIS AHERN,
Federated Press.

SYDNEY, Australia, Dec. Com
munists in Australia are again de-
manding the right to enter the ranks
Of the Australian labor party, tho the
constitution of that party prohibits the
granting OF membership rights to any
person affiliated to any other political
party. The Communist Party, how
ever, demands that being working
class party, it has every right to mem
bership In the A. L. P.
In an official statement on the mat
ter the Communist Party says:
"The policy of the Communist Party
is clear. We recognize the Australian
labor party as being composed Of a
large number of workers, and we ac-
cordingly demand the right Of entry
as militant workers, and we definitely
refuse to tolerate any censorship Of
our principles by any set of reaction
airy leaders. We will continue to fight
for admission to the A. L. P. as repre-
sentativss of the trade union move
ment, unhampered in our efforts to
put forward a fighting policy Of work
ing-elass demands. Our membership
Is unanimous on the question that only
by clean-cut Communist policy in op-
position to the dogmas of reformism
can working-class movement in the
true sense of the world be built up in
Australia"

Union Threatened, But
Officers Don't Show
BY a Coal Miner.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Dec During
the month OF October while. nomina-
tons Of officers Of United Mine Work
ers Of District were going on. dis
trict officials Of the union were quite
active One could meet more than
one organizer and board members at
practically all of the local union meet
ings.
An attempt is being made by the
coal operators to reopen the Crescent
mine on Red Hill, Daisytown, Pa, on
the basis Of the 1917 scale. The mine,
which had been idle for many months.
is right in the heart of a net of union
mines employing thousands of men.
Old timers, union men, are being evict-
ed from the company houses. Police
are guarding the few scabs which the
company engaged.
Where Is Faean7
While the company is thus making
an attempt to start its open-shop pol
icy in this organized section, starting
with mine located side by side with
several large organized mines. the die
trict officials Of the union, including
Hynes, the board member, are con
spicuous by their absence. Not a
sight Of Pat Pagan or any one OF his
associates Not an attempt Is being
made to get the organized miners OF
at least that section to come together
to discuss the problem of how to save
the union therel The members Of
the union are wondering what became
of their district officials and are ask
ing the question: Where is Pat Pagan
now?" Or where is Hynes, the board
member Of this sub-district, whose
duty is to guard the interests Of the
union in the sub-district?

cent mine should wake up before it is
too late and get the district officials

VIII Cede Tacna-Arica

SANTIAGO, Chile, Dec. Chile
has agreed to cede Tacna-Arica to 3D.
livia, thus bowling to the wishes of the
United States department of state.
Secretary Kellogg of the United States
urged Chile to give the territory to
Bolivia in order to settle the long con-

In the note from the Chilean cabi-
net to the United States was stated:
"Chile hopes that this sacrifice may
be duly appreciated as contribution
to continental peace and world prog
ress."
The conditions that the cession will
provide are that Bolivia must maintain
complete disarmament in Tacna-Arica,
and that africa is to be free port to
only Chile, Bolivia and Peru.
Peruvian officials have not COM
mented on Chile's action. But La
Presna, semi-official organ, asks If
Secretary Kellogg had asked the peo-
pie in Tacna-Arica if they desired to
belong to Bolivia"

GERMAN DEMANDS
Ministers Discuss Basis
for cooperating"

PARIS, Dec. Sir Austin Cham
herlain, British foreign affairs secre-
tary, and M. BRAND, French foreign
minister, have met in pre-league
council conference here for the pur-
pose Of deciding on what issues.
Great Britain and France will CO.
operate at the Geneva meeting.
Discuss Germany and Italy.
The demands of both Germany and
France on Italy occupied the attention
OF the two minister's Germany's de-
mand for immediate withdrawal Of
the allied troops from the Rhineland
and the surrender by the allies Of
military control to the league will
come up at the league council meet
ing. France wants to wiring conces-
sions from Germany before relinquish-
ing her power Of the country.
Italy's demands for expansion at
the expense Of French territory may
or may not come up at the league, but
BRAND and Chamberlain discussed
what action would be taken in case
they did.
Seeks 5rItain,s Aid.
France is anxious for the co-opera-
zion of Great Britain in the council,
because her power over Germany will
cease as soon as the league takes
charge and because Germany will be
considered an equal member in the
council.
Volunteer military organizations in
Germany are still a source of worry
for France. Stresemann has given
orders to the organizations to cease
their military training activities, but
France doubts his power to cause the
militarists to desist.
Poland Frightened.
Poland is also entering the situa-
ton, Zaleski, Poland foreign minister,
demanding that Germany abandon GER
tain fortifications on the Polish bor-
der. This will come up at the council
meeting.
