The democratic town commit- teo declares that it further protests what it terms the unspeakable distor- tion of Article 23 of the league of nations and reminds the cl mind- ed people that defeat is better than success bought at an unfair advantage. ‘What_About Mixers Four cement r the st Berlin rrived yesterday.
