CHEAPER AIR MAIL

There is proposal before Congress to reduce the
air mail for first class matter to five cents an
ounce. The present rate is four times that much.
Such reduction would be fine thing The rate
is too high to interest the general public. 1t is
only occasional letter that is important enough to
Justify the or 20 it to send it by arpane
Thus the public gains little, business makes only mod
crate of the air mail and there is not enough pat

Cheaper rates would doubtless operate in the air.

"The reactionary Fascist Govern

playing desperate game which is
likely to plunge Europe in another
World War far more deadly and ter

nItaly and Yugoslavia are playing

behind the scenes are. England and
America, the imperialist giants fight
ing for united front against the So
Wet Union, and France manipulating
for advantages in setting up her sys-
tenn of war alliances in the Balkans,
"This struggle, if it develops into
war, will not long be war of Italy
and Yugoslavia. The great powers"
will take hand in this war, just as
they did in the last, but it will be the
workers and peasants of these great
powers" who will have to do the fight
ing against their brother workers
from other countries and leave their
lifeblood on the field of battle.
''The United Committee calls upon
all workers, italian, Jugo Slav, Ameri-
can and all other nationalities, to at
tend this mass meeting on July T and
to vigorously protest and fight against
the criminal war preparations of in
ternational Fascism."

were found in court-martial pro-
