' * test . ed et Zz Queen Marie and “Standard Oil’ ’ Kellogs Want to Stop The DAILY WORKER--- What Are YOU Doing To Keep The DAILY WORKER? By JAY LOVESTONE. ECRETARY OF STATE FRANKLIN B, KELLOGG has in- structed the post office department to take action against The DAILY WORKER. We got the secretary's goat by telling the Roumanian Queen Marie where to get off at. Mr. Kellogg and the bankers and the manufacturers whom he serves couldn't stand our telling the American workers the truth about the queen whose hands are dripping with the blood of the execu- tioner of the Roumanian workers and peasants. While the entire capitalist press is singing hymns of praise for the Queen of Terrorland, The DAILY WORKER is showing how the queen has been serving as mistress of the infamous butchery of the Roumaniag masses. Bae DAILY The DAILY WORKER Ri The DAILY WORKER stories about the queen with the plans of the American investment bankers to per- petuate the slavery in which the Roumanian workers and peas ~ants now find themselves. The DAILY WORKER “greetings” to the queen will make it harder for Wall Street to throw millions of American work- ers and farmers into a war in defense of our ruling class in- vestments in Roumania, Poland, Bulgaria and other white terror countries. That's why Coolidge has it in for The DAILY WORKER.

Kellogg has ordered the Post Office Department to find some basis on which to suppress The DAILY WORKER because of its exposure of the bloody terror invoked against the Roumanian workers and peasants, under the “Versailles Peace,” and because of its revelations of the real meaning of the visit to this country of Queen Marie, of Roumania. The DAILY WORKER stands by every. word it has pub- lished and intends to continue, with all the power it can muster, to enlighten the workers and farmers of America as to the murderous anti-labor regime that r in Roumania, under the direction of the Paris Allies.

As a reward, Kellogg was sent to the U. S. senate. He failed of re-election, however, due to the unity of the workers and farmers of Minnesota thru their own Farmer-Labor Party. While a member of the United States senate, and seated on the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections, Kellogg objected strenuously to the investigation of the corruption used to elect Truman H.
