The letter from Washington reads
as follows:
Postmaster,
Worcester, Mass,
My Dear Sir:
The Solicitor for the Post Office
Dept has held the May LIST, 18th
and June End issues of the Young
Worker to be unavailable. In view
Of this no further consideration will
be given the request for its entry as
second class matter at your office.
Very truly yours,
Signed. F. A. Tilton,
3rd Assistant Postmaster
Reference is made in the above let
ter to its entry as second class mat
ter definitely trying to give the
impression that the Young Worker
was only applying for second class
mailing privileges for the first time
This, however, it is pointed out, is
an outright lie since the "Young
Worker" is in existence for over 8
years and has had second class mail
ing rights since 1922. 1t is very
evident, therefore, that the banning
of the young Worker" from the
mails coming on top of the virtual
exclusion of Vida Obrera," organ of
the Spanish buro of the Communist
Party and the Young Pioneer" is
only part of the general attack
against the entire working class and
Its press that has as its goal the
gagging of the entire revolutionary
labor movement. Particularly Is the
Fish Committee out to get" the
Young Worker" for Its anti-militar-
list agitation to the soldiers and
sailors.

the international proletariat whether
Poincare was able to carry out his
plans for an Intervention in 1881 OF

tagers, end to popularize the achieve

Gable BY Inprecorr.)

BERLIN, Dec. 24.-Official figures
of unemployment in Germany on
Nov. 80 show that there were $780,
900 out of work; on Dec. Is, there
we're 100000. The tendency is still
upward in the army of the unem-
ployed. 1t will soon be at least
100000 besides hundreds of thou
sands of workers on part time.
The Reichs prosecutor filed an in
dictment of treason against the fas-
cist leader, Goebbels. The Reichstag
consented to hand Goebbels over to
the court for trial. However, prelim-
mary inquiries are so lengthy that
it is doubtful whether the case will
ever appear in court.
According to urgent wishes of
President Won Hindenberg to have the
Thuringia-R Reich conflict settled be-
fore Christmas, the Cancellation hear
ing occurred before the Leipzig SUI
preme Court, where the fascist, Prick,
was completely victorious. All police
subsidies. including overdue monies,
are now being paid. so that Prick can
continue the work of consolidating
Thuringia as fascist bulwark.
On Sunday, 60 fascists attacked ten
workers in Gutzkov, Brandenburg. The
workers defended themselves desper-
ately, injuring many Of their assail-
ants. Four workers were injured.
The police arrived after the battle.

HALF OF COPPER
MINERS REDUCED
TO STARVATION
Trust Tries to Put the
Brunt on Toilers
tBy a Worker Correspondent

HOUGHTON, Mich.-The mines
that are still working are mostly on
three and four days week, the wages
have been lowered directly and in
directly and this is continuing. at
the present time the workers receive
from $3.50 to 81 q month, but in very
few places. The average worker re-
ceives from $11 to SIG a week, out Of
which he has to pay the same amount
for the doctors bill as he used to a
year ago. This amount is drawn
out of the pay check every month
besides insurance fees.
Rents Increase.
The rents in many cases have in
creased and many other daily needs
CT the workers, as fuel, has increased
in price. At the present time there
IS no less than SO per cent of the
workers unemployed, Those still
working under this intensified speed
up and exploitation are barely ex-
sting and the ones which are uneln-
ployed are actually starving.
The fact that the copper trust is
well organized against the workers
has come cut vc-y plainly and
sharply, and the fact that they have
laid the whole burden Of tie crisis
en- the shoulders of the workers must
be made clear to the workers in the
upper section.
Burden On ToiIers.
In the Calumet and Mohawk min
ing towns we hear that every one
who is working should give one days
wages out of his monthly earnings
or the unemployed, but Patter and
many other slave DRYERS will not adj
vance any money, though they re-
one month more than the
%orker receives in two years
work.
copper trust has noticed the
TACT that the workers are growing
militant. They have blacklisted and
tried to terrorize a number of mill
tant workers here. But I must say
that the copper companies Of Calu-
met will not succeed with this. But
it shows how they are afraid of an
organization of the workers.

Prince Carols Return
Continues Romance

From the Asbuy Park Evening Press
The return Of Prince Carol to the
throne OF Rumania adds another chap
ter to tale which reads like the 70
nance OF George Barr McCutcheon.
Exlled five years ago for amours that
were considered without the province
OF a prince Of royal blood, Carol con-
fned himself to the gayety of Paris
while his father died and his young son
was placed upon the throne which was
rightfully his. In reality, OF course, the
boy Michael never became King, for his
sovereignty was under the care of a
regency, but for almost three years he
has worn the crown that had been
withheld from his fathers grasp. Now
politics and sentiment, In that queer
combination that characterizes the
Balkan states, has conspired to de-
throne the youth and place his dashing
father on the fickle throne. Carol has
accepted the new role with all Of the
glamour that has marked his exotic lie.
Apparently without even q sigh he has
forsaken his loves In Paris and spec
by airplane to Bucharest. Generals
and peasants alike have greeted him
cordially, and now he has acquired his
inherited rights. From the Lothario OF
Paris he has become overnight King OF
Rumania.
Such q sudden change In dynasties
can be understood only in the light OF
Balkan temperamcnt,

English SchoOlboys
Will Visit Canada
From the Ottawa journal.

from tne ottawa journal.
A plan is under way to bring about
1000 British schoolboys to Canada in
the Summer of 1881 to tour the Do
m1nion. Ottawa, which will be visited
by the boys, has been asked to entertain
them when they arrive here on the
course of their tour. It is the intention
during the same period to charter a
ship and take the same number of
Canadian boys on tour Of the mother
land.
This project, which was placed before
school Journeys Association by DR.. j. H.
Putnam recently, in one which should
be highly commended. The visit of
such a large contingent Of boys would
mean, OF course, considerable work in
getting them suitable accommodation
and also in arranging for their enter
tainment, but the good which would be
derived would more than compensate
for the trouble and expenditure.
Boys from is to 18 are in their most
impressionable years and both the
British and Canadian boys would see
much that would open their eyes. The
less formal style Of living the vast dis
tanceS, the great possibilities, the won
ders of mountain, forest and prairie
would be a revelation to the boy from
Britain, while that country breathing
the glories Of q mighty past, cultivating
the best in literature and art and max
ing a superhuman struggle against ad-
verse conditions would be an equal
source Of inspiration to the boy from
Canada.

The New Champion.

It cannot be said that last nights
exhibition of fstic sport in New York
was particularly satisfactory either to
the spectators or to the more or less
interested public listening to the ac-
count of the affair by radio. Much, OF
course, depends upon what constitutes
a satisfactory bruising match. To the
lover Of CORY spectacles this was q
washout, for 1t did not cause enough
bloodletting TO shock sensitive child.
To the lover of clever sparring it was
deficient, for the opponents were 50
inadeQuately matched that one could only
reach his opponent with great difficulty,
while the latter, by reason Of superior
speed and longer reach, was constantly
landing his blows. To the admirer Of
grit and gameness 1t was fairly good
show, but 1t was too short to be fully
satisfactory.
But the ending. was 20 completely

siderations, partisanship, appraisal Of

four-round encounter were worth all

the championship seemingly won by the

To those who measure prizeflght en-
tertainment by the hourglaSs this show

at pugilism. Some eighty thousand were

certain the sentiments Of those people,
to poll them upon the spectacle as

determine anything regarding this fight

afford a line on why people pay big
money for uncomfortable seats at ex-
hibitions that are promoted as q busi-
ness, exhibitions that are neither edify-
ing nor profitable and that do not
promote good citizenship or sound

Voice of Iowa Is Accepted
AS Potent Tariff Factor

The Importance of the verdict is
questioned by the Louisville Courier
Journal. with the statement: THE farm
ers, who constitute the bulk of Iowa's
population, may resent the action Of a
Republican Congress, but they do not
carry their resentment to the polls
They may rebel against the injustice of
a tariff law. but If 1t Is a Republican
tariff they invariably stand by the Re
publican party when election day comes
around"
"Tn this respect" adds the OMAHA
World Herald, Iowa Republicanism is'
fairly typical Of Midwestern Republican
ism. A large part Of 1t every so often
rears up on its hind legs, screame def
ance at its oppreSsors, roars its demands
for JuSttce-and occasionally elects a
Brookhart. And with that it subsidies
into state of peaceful resistance that
is more peaceful than resistant. It
takes what the party gives it, supports
the ticket in November, and hopes that
better crops will atone for falling prices
and tariff extortion."
ut is obvious" in the judgment Of the
Akron Beacon-Journal, that in Iowa
at least the Republican voters are salts
ned with what Chairman Alexander
Legge has done. The relief he has given
Is largely vocal, but, such as it is, It has
appealed to the favor of the people of
the State"
1.-THE choice Of Dickinson" says the
Lowell Evening Leader, will be inter-
preted as indicating a feeling that the
interests of agriculture have not been
neglected in the tariff measure" The
Topeka Daily Capital remarks that the
successful candidate was "able TO con-
vince the farmers of his State that they
will gain more than they lose by the
conference bill" The Lexington Leader
states that generally the people of the
agrartan West have become convinced
that higher rates are demanded by
changed conditions
OF Mr.. Dickinson's position the San
Antonio Express offers the opinion
LESS radical than Senator Brookhart,
he Is, nevertheless, the farmers friend
and also of strong insurgent Ieanings;
but, broadly considered, the nomination
may be labeled an administration VIC
tory. And 1t was to have been expected
that President Hoover's native State
strongly would indorse him at the polls"
Assertion that the real test will come
in November Is made by the Davenport
Democrat and the Charleston (W. Va
Daily Mail.

Mr. Simmons submits & letter from the
tax assessor, Mr.. Richards, In which
the bizarre theory Is advanced That
Withdrawals of taxable land by the
Government in reality increase the
Districts revenue~producing capacity.
Thus Mr.. Simmons becomes convert
to the doctrine that II four-fifths OF
WashingtonS non-extensible area be-
came tax-exempt the remaining NTH
would be more valuable and productive
Of greater revenue than If the figures
were reversed and four-fifths Of the
area taxable and only one-flfth exempt.
The assessors letter has previously been
discussed at length ir The Star; sufhce
It now to repeat that It's conclusions
are faulty as they are based upon
immediate and temporary conditions
and ignore the significant results that
are final and permanent: because they
take into account primarily the Gov
ernment tax collectors interest, ignor-
ing the loss or gain and distinct and
differing interests of the taxpayers and
because they overlook the difference in
conditions between other cities and
Washington, with its rigidly limited
taxable area which cannot be increased
as in other cities by extensive ac-
quisitions OF adjacent areas in the
same State. A letter that men
tions the isolated case of the In
creased revenue receipts resulting from
a single transfer OF the Southern Rail
way from the Avenue triangle to a
new location is interpreted as laying
down a new theory in the economies Of
taxation-that the part is more valu-
able than the whole.
Mr.. Simmons concludes with a
that IF the bill must fail
by reason OF the demand for q still
greater contribution, let the RESPONSE
bility for the failure rest where 1t
belongs"
With this the people of Washington
will agree, and that responsibility will
IN their opinion lie with those whose
and unreasonable refusal to
grant that there is merit In the other |
side of the question which invites COM
promise has left them blind to their |
own responsibilities and the demands |

lion of their Nations Capital.

The New Judges.

Passage by the Senate of the bill
creating four additional judgeships for
the District Of Columbia brings this i'm
portant piece Of remedial legislation to
the last lap in the long course it has
run since the beginning of the session.
The bill has been favorably reported
and now is on the House calendar.
Representative Simmons of Nebraska
announced some time ago that he was
convinced of the merits Of the legisla-
ton and would urge It's enactment. 30
far as known, there Is no opposition in
the House. The closing days Of the
session are here, however, and II the
Anal legislative steps can be speeded, so
much the better.
1t is to be doubted II any local meas
ure considered at this session exceeds In
fundamental importance the bill for the
new judges. Vacancies occurring this
year on the court have added to the
congestion already existing, and while
these vacancies will have been filled
with the confirmation of Mr.. Adkins
appointment. the court as at present
constituted will be able to make but
small headway in catching up on its
work unless the new judges are pro-
vided.
If the new positions are created now,
the Presidents selection of men to fill
them may be possible in time to bring
about needed reorganization of the court
before the Summer recess.

In the issue Of The Star Of June IL

secretary Of the washington Humane
Society. Mr.. Heap claims that It is
sheer propaganda Of physicians. seek

that in as years he has never heard Of
a single case Of rabies that could be
proved authentic.
The writer has never dared to voice
an opinion on this subject, but Mr..

away with the hilarious assertion that
my boy had too much Irish in him
