AT JAMES WALKER
His Entertainers Black
Reactionaries

BERLIN, August %. Because
the friends of Mayor Walker of New
York are the blacklist reactionaries,
labor killers, and jingo nationalists in
the whole of Germany, his reception
here is developing some complications
entirely apart from the decision of
class conscious labor to demonstrate
against him as a representative Of
the murderers of sacco and Van
zetti.
Aren't Republicans.
The big hotels of Berlin are will
ing to fly the American fllg in honor
OF Mayor Walkers visit, TO Berlin,
but they are not willing to fly the
German republican flag.
This was definitely decided upon
today at special meeting of the
managers Of the principal hotels, And
as a result of the decision it is vir-
tually certain that Lord Mayor Boesse
of Berlin will decline to attend the
dinner being given in Mayor Walkers
honor tomorrow by the American
Club, at the Kaiserhoff Hotel. The
lord mayor has refused to patronize
hny hotel which does not fly the flag
bf the German republic.

OPPONENTS OF DUELING
ASSAIL BARBAROUS ERA
Students in German Universities
Continue Fight Against Friendly
Tilts with Sabers.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN. April 2.-Opponents of
dueling with sabers among students
of German universities are continuing
their fight against what they call q
"barbarous survival of the Middle
Ages"
In the most famous test case of re-
cent years the Berlin court of appeals
sustained a district court which SEN
fenced Paul Kruschko. Berlin Univer-
sity law student, to five months in
JAIL Kruschko was convicted of
manslaughter after the death of his
friendly opponent in a duel.
The students counsel argued that
"dueling with sabers is one of the
least dangerous forms of sport, less
dangerous than boxing Since 1864,
counsel pointed out, only nine stu
dents died as a result of dueling.
All possible precautions, such as
body shields, steriliZed sabers and the
attendance of physician, were taken,
he said, and the fact that kruscho's
opponent died as result of blood
poisoning from wound in the chest.
must be considered an unavoidable ac
eident. The higher court, however,
failed to see the argument.
