NEW YORK, April 3 ().—With the April fssue of the American Mercury officially barred from the mails after It had been malled, Henry L. Mencken, the editor, is seeking a hearing on the matter. Mencken successfully defended charges of impropriety made in Bos ton against an article entitled ““Hat ; rack” appearing in the issue. | Postal officials at Washington took | action yesterday after the Farming-| ton (Mo.), Chamber of Commerce adopted a resolution asking Post- master General New to bar the maga zine.

A judge upheld his contention that the regular readers of the magazine wonld not find the article offensive.

Mencken, publisher of the American Mercury, the April issue of which was barred from the mails, Selicitor Donnelly an nounced that in so far as the Post Office Department was concerned the matter is a closed issue. Mr. Don nelly refused to disclose the detalls of the conference, stating only that the action taken hy the department and | interpretations of the law were dis- cussed. - The complaints to him came through the regular channels. Mr. Donnelly said, one of them being filed by the postmaster of New York City. Boston Decision Not Considered.
