10 OFFERS TO SEND SOVIETS HOME lartens Would Provide the Transportation For All Russians New York. Nov. 17. —Ludweg C. . K. Martens, self-styled "ambassa or of the Russian Soviet. govern lent to the United States," has of sred to provide transportation from le United States to Russia for all ussian' citizens who desire to leave merlco, or whose presence in the halted States is undesirable to the federal Government. This offer ras made in a letter written by (artens to Secretary of State Lan- In this letter Martens protests gainst the "unwarranted and cruel reatment" to which many Russian JUsens in the United States are sub ected "by Federal and state ottl iers, as well as by mobs acting with >ut authority." He proposes that the ioViet government be permitted to ■eturn these citizens to Soviet Rus lia and declares that he has re seived thousands of applications !rom such citizens who are anxious ;o return to their homes. Martens was arrested for con mpt Saturday and released on sl,- (00 bail after he had refused to ap >ear and bring certain documents >efore the I-usk legislative eommit ee, investigating radical activities in (lew York. Ho based his refusal on he ground that all communications jassing between himself and his fovernment were privileged. Calling attenUon to press reports iat it is proposed to deport cer :ain Russians to parts of Russia un- 1 ler control of the enemies of the Soviet government. Martens, in his etter to Secretary Lansing, protests fhat such deportation would mean :ertain death for the persons deport d and would constitute "a flagrant breach of all principles of interna- Jonal law."

GOVERNOR BUYS | A HEALTH BOND State Executive Urges Ob-j servance of Tubercu losis Day Governor William C. Sproul has' bought the first health bond and in , a statement issued to-day suggests ; ! that the residents of Pennsylvania | join other states in observing tuber- , culosis day in December in connec- , tion with the Christmas seal sale. | The dates named are Friday, De cember sth, as tuberculosis day in the schools; Saturday, December 6th, as tuberculosis day in the Syna gogues, and Sunday, December 7th, us tuberculosis day in the churches. Governor Sproul in buying the first health bond in the seal cam-1 paign has become the first member , of the Keystone Health Bond Club, i The Health Bond is a new feature i in the seal campaigns. It is sold to a person who wants to aid the health j and tuberculosis work in a substan- , tial way and does not care for the j large number of seals his donation . would buy. Health Bonds run in, denominations from $5 to SIOO. Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, State Commissioner of Education, is send ing a letter to the 4 4,000 public school teachers in the State calling attention to the seal and tubercu- j losis campaign and asking them to ( bring the matter to the attention of | their pupils on tuberculosis day. j The day will also be properly ob- j served in parochial schools and the j colleges. | Pastors all over the State have al- | ready given assurance that they will preach December 7th on the white plague and the public health prob lem. The matter will likewise bo brought to the attention of many Sunday Schools on that day. Many State mayors will back up the Gov ernor by asking their citizens to loin j in marking tuberculosis day, which j will be observed throughout the, country. I Governor Sproul's statement fol- j lows: "In many of the states of the un ion. as a result of arrangements al ready made In connection with the . Christmas Red Cross Seal Sale, Fri- , day, December 5, will be observed j as Tuberculosis Day in the schools, : Saturday. December 6, as Tubercu- j losis Day in the Synagogues, and . Sunday, December 7. as Tuber- J culosis Day in the other churches. \ In tho schools there will be special . Instructions regarding the white | plague menace, and the part that j the men. women and children of the j land should take in hedplng State and Federal authorities halt the j yearly ravages of tuberculosis. In I the churches there will be timely j comment upon the duty the indi- | vidual owes to the community in j connection with tuberculosis —a pre- j ventable disease —that each year causes the death of 10,000 people in j this State. , "I believe it would he fitting if - the schools ar.d churches of this j State, as far as is practical, make j December 5, 6 and 7, days upon , which special emphasis is placed ! ufcon tho dangers of the white ] plague and tho part the public gen- , erally can play in overcoming those j dangers. Only when the public is j fully Informed concerning its pait { in the fight against 'uberculosis will: II be possible to cause the reduction [ in the annual tuberculosis death rate j that those engaged in tuberculosis j wo k confidently hope for. • No state in the union has been j more aggressive than Pennsylvania | ir. the fight it has made against lu-j berculosis. The fact that a nation- j wide observance of Tuberculosis Day j is possible, is, in a considerable ' measure, due to the influence of the J tu.-erculosis program developed in , our Commonwealth."

Emma Goldman to Be Deported, Palmer Thinks Washington, Nov. 17.—Replying to a Senate inquiry as to what had i j been done toward deporting Emma j Goldman and Alexander Berkman. j Attorney General Palmer declared j to-night that the woman's claim to : American citizenship was "fallaci ous" and that Berkman, by his own admission, was an anarchist. The Goldman case is under con sideration by immigration authori ties at New York and the Attorney General's statement was taken to mean that the government soon would attempt to send her back to ; Russia, where she was born. Discussing Goldman's claim to 1 citizenship, Mr. Palmer said she ; was 24 years old when her father! was naturalized, and that her age j barred her from inheriting natural!- i zation rights from him.

Three billion marks will be paid back during the ! first forty years, and two more dur- ! ing the succeeding forty years.
