PLAGUE FEARED
AMONG REFUGEES
OF JAPAN QUAKE
Situation Acute; Trains
Running Badly

TOXIC, March 10.-The situation
in the areas devastated by the recent
earthquakes and subsequent fires
was still extremely acute today. The
death list is now stated as 5000.
With transportation still badly
crippled the task of getting sup
plies to the affected areas is sur
rounded with many difficulties.
The menace of starvation is still
prevalent.
Fear Epidemics.
The next danger, most feared, is
that plague will break out in the
groups Of homeless refugees, neces-
sarily herded together in temporary
quarters, and without much resis-
lance to disease because of the hard
ships they undergo.
The entire nation is rallying to the
aid Of the survivors of the catas-
trophe. Money, food, clothing and
medical supplies have been concen-
trated at various points and are
awaiting transportation mediums.
Relief Arriving.
The Sanin railroad has been re-
paired and relief trains today were
arriving from Miyazu.
DR.. Ito of the sixteenth army divi-
sion, in charge of three groups of
nurses and doctors, was speeding to
Kyoto today from this city. Another
special train leaving here carried 3d.
900 blankets and 1000 sacks of rice.
Hundreds of injured refugees are
still WITHOUT medical aid. With
storms raging in the Sanin district,
their plight is made even more mis-
cradle.

Sex Play Barred When
Injunction Is Denied

"The Captive" has been barred. A
decision of Supreme Court Justice
jeremiah T. Mahoney denies an in
junction to restrain District Attorney
Banton and the police from interfer-
ing with the proposed Horace B.
Liveright production of the play.
"The Captive" thus becomes the
first victim in the crusade for censor
ship of the stage. The play, which
was written by the Frenchman,
Edouard Bourdet, and deals with a
problem of sexual pathology, was
produced by Charles Froh-
man, Inc. Charles Frohman, Inc,
withdrew the play two weeks ago, end
Horace b. Liveright took over the
production rights.

CAPELLINI AIDS
IN GRABBING PAY
OF COAL DIGCERS
Tells En- to Dig Up for
Merchants

Especial to The DAILY W0RKER)
BARRE, Pa, March 10.
Cooperation between the working
man and the business man was the
sweet song piped by President Rim
aldo Capellini Wednesday evening at
a meeting of Wyoming Valley retail
merchants. The occasion of the love
feast was the effort of the distressed
merchants to get back some of the
money on bills arising from the
1925-26 strike.
Pay When They Can.
Coal diggers up and down the an
thracite feel that the Goldfish aris-
toeracy Of the villages has minted
plenty of money out of their needs.
Some of them consequently have
paid when they could on strike debts
and told the storekeepers to chalk up
the rest against the time when the
bosses give the miners raise-if
ever.
The merchants appealed to the
president of District 1, and he ran
to the rescue although he has been
too busy in the past months to hear
the legitimate grievances of miners
themselves who have had wage cuts
imposed on them without protest by
the district.
Delaware and Hudson, after being
idle more than a week, has opened
again, sending about $4,000 men
back into the pits. d. & H. has been
operating very irregularly recently
and may shut down again.
Production Falling Off.
The board of Cancellation will con-
slider the claims of four mine work
ers, entombed Nov. 16 in a mine
flood, to pay for "a eight-hour shifts.
The company was going to pay them
500 apiece for the eight days of
stark agony.
Anthracite production has fallen
off sharply as compared with 1926.
The last February week showed only
1864 900 tons mined, against 1,600,-
900 tons in the same week of 1926,
Production fell off 100000 tons as
compared with the third week of
February and is continuing TO drop.

MEXICO CITY, March 1O.--Alex-
andra KOllOntay, ambassador here Of
The Union of Socialist Soviet Repub-
lies, has added her voice to the denials
of Mexican government officials who
al repudiate the story started by the
state department of the United States
that "the BOlsheviki are back of the
anti-American feeling in Latin Amer
ica."
Comrade Kollontay was able to show
that she did not have the huge staff
of propagandists, working in her le-
cation, which all good anti-Bolshevists
aseribe to the U. S. R. r. foreign le-
cations.
Small Staff.

serted, my private secretary, one
secretary, two typists and an office
man who devotes his time to opening
the legation door and cutting clippings
from trade reports"
Charges that the legation had tried
to introduce Soviet propaganda into
Nicaragua were greeted humorously
by the woman diplomat.
81 repeat that we diplomats are for
hidden to take part in anything but
real diplomatic work, for we are try
ing to establish diplomatic relations
with all countries.
Would Trade With U. S.
$50 far as the United States is con-
.cerned, what the Soviet desires is the
development Of relations. Russia is a
great market for machinery and the
United States, an industrial nation,
can supply it. The United States
ranks first in sales to Russia, Ger
many second and England third"
Friendship Grows.
The general feeling here against
the arguments of Wall STREET imperial
ism that Mexico is following the diplo-
macy of the Soviet Union makes for
friendship between Latin America and
the u. S. r. R., rather than the re-
verse, as was evidently intended in
Washington.

needed than today they mean that
loyalty ITO the working class was
never more necessary than now.

him away from the working class.
He was sent from one Jail to another
