QUIZ ON COMMUNISM
IRRITATES EINSTEIN
Scientist Indignant at Questioning
by U. S. Consular Official
for Visa. So,
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, December 5.-Albert Elm
stein, Germany's most famous professor,
stood like a schoolboy today before an
American consular official, who ques-
toned him concerning Communism,
pacihcism and arnarchism.
The professor took the questioning
meekly for awhile and then declined to
be put through what he considered a
sort of third degree.
The occasion was his application for
visa for his impending trip to the
United States. After the incident he
declared that if he failed to receive the
visa within "a hours he would not go
to America
The reason for the questioning this
time was not explained, but recently the
State Department at Washington for
warded a demand by the Woman Pa
troit Corporation that the famous sci
enlist be barred from the United States
on the ground that he is a Communist.
The relatively expert, who proudly re-
calls he once received from Presi-
dent Hoover a message of congratula-
ton and that New York made him an
honorary citizen, was considerably sur
prised last Saturday when he received
a request to appear at the consulate.

ECONOMY ACT HIT !
BY $1,000 clerks
Committee of Federation in
Session Here to Outline
Repeal Program.

With repeal of the economy act as its
principal objective the Executive Com
mittee of the National Federation Of
Post Office Clerks went in session here
today to outline a legislative program
and consider organization administrative
matters affecting postal employment.
The committee represents $4,000
postal clerks over the country, and, 1t Is
explained. has authority to act for the
membership between conventions.
1t is composed Of the three permanent
washington officers, president, Leo E.
George; secretary-treasurer, Thomas
F. Flaherty, and assistant secretary
treasurer, William Otte. and the fol-
lowing nine vice presidents: Harry c.
Weinstock, Philadelphia; John M.
Torka, New York; j. H. Mitcham, Spo-
kane; K. l.. Simpson, Indianapolis;
Carl T. FriSvold, San Francisco; Miles
Ventress, Miami; Charles U. Sentilles,
New Orleans; William H. Jackson,
Kansas City, Mo-, and G. Edward
Quimby, Manchester, N. H
Conferences have been arranged with
members OF Congress and postal off,
Gals.
According to F1aherty, the organiza-
ton is seeking the early repeal of the
economy law. This law has failed Of
its purpose, not having effected sub
stantial economies and at the same time
materially injuring the service morale"
he said. 1T has impaired the mass pur-
chasing power of the postal workers to
the extent of $50, 100000 throughout the
country, which in turn has been harm
full to the small business man. We are
firmly convinced that continuation of
this law will retard rather than help
economic recovery. If the economy law
is continued, 1t means notice to the
country by Congress that there Is little
hope for an upward trend prior to July
l, 1884. This would be note Of de-
spair, with unfortunate reactions every
where"

would bring the full strength Of his
army to 5000 men. He said he had the
support Of the Khaki Shirts.
Besides demanding payment OF the
bonus, we are going to present petit
ton to Congress asking for full in

And, before we leave here We will
pay a mass tribute TO our comrades
Huska and Carlson-slain in the July

Cemetery, where they are buried"
Have Him "All Wrong"
Levin contends that the police have
him all wrong but, nevertheless, his
record at headquarters charges him
with being "the most Violent radical
agitator who ever visited Washington"
Immediately after the eviction Of the
bonus army here, Levin and group Of
friends we're arrested and held at a
station house for five days. Efforts Of
police and Federal agents 10 bring
charges against him failed, and he was
escorted out of town under the personal
supervision of Inspector o. T. Davis
Of the Washington police. At the Dis
trict line he was ordered never to re-
turn here.
Accompanying Levin to Washington
was his chief lieutenant, Samuel j. Stem
bar, who recently was member of a
committee that called on President-elect
Roosevelt in Albany with demand for
relief of the unemployed.

JAPANESE TROOPS
NEAR SOVIET LINE
Toxic ConsuIts Moscow as to
Attitude in Military
Campaign. .

TOXIC, December 5.-The japanese
army pushed to point within rs miles
of the Soviet border, in Manchuria to-
day, in its campaign against insurgent
Chinese, a situation which gave the
government pause as to the attitude Of
Moscow.
Toxic oficialdom concentrated on
Russo-Japanese relations, especially in
light Of the fact that the japanese
troops might push on to Manchuli, the
Manchurian border city.
The foreign ONCE disclosed that Eli
Amoh, the Japanese charge d'affaires at
Moscow, had approached the foreign
commisar Of Russia, l.. M. Karakhan
as to the circumstances of the cam
palgn.
Drive on Insurgent General
The charge told M Karakhan that
1t was necessary for the Japanese army
to attack the Chinese insurgent, Gen
Su P1ng-Wen, who has been holding
one-fourth Of Northwestern Manchuria
in defiance of the Japanese army, and
has been keeping more than 100 jap
aneSe as hostages.
The Japanese charge also advised
Russia 1t would be necessary to use the
Western division Of the Chinese Eastern
Railway, over which Russia has partial
authority. The Russian conlmisar was
also advised the Japanese policy was
as previously outlined, lie, not to injure
the Chinese Eastern if possible, and re-
pair all damage resulting from japanese
operation.
M. Karakhan advised NJ Amoh that
he wished time to concult the Moscow
government before discussing the situa-
ton further. That was on December Q.
Course of Action Not Determined.
Today the government lacked intor-
nation as to Moscow's intentions in
the event Gen. Su Ping-Wen and his
followers should attempt to flee into
Siberia. It was asserted Japan and
Russia had not yet discussed frontier
problems likely to arise if the Japanese
should occupy Manchuli.

Believes Stimson Statement Is Not Final
Word.

LONDON, December (P.-Secre-
tary Stimson's statement that it might
not be necessary for the United States
to reply to last weeks British note is
not regarded in government circles as
the final word on the war debt situa-
ton.
A visit by Ambassador Mellon on
Saturday to Stanley Baldwin, who is
acting head of the government in Mr..
MacDonald's absence, was understood
to have been for the purpose of &C
quainting Mr.. Baldwin with the pro-
cedure to be expected in Washington
this week.
Whatever action Congress takes, the
government here expects to receive
some reply from the American State
Department through the usual diplo-
matte channels.
The hope that there might be any
yielding by Congress on the payment
due this month is decreasing, but there
is still confidence that the British view
point eventually will prevail.

Warrnbold as minister of economics
and Baron Friedrich Elder Won Braun

relief.
The Communist party announced
this morning that at the first opportu-
