That this w: fact that the Government has learned that the Soviet Gov- | ernment has a fully equipped, well supplied with money, or: ganization in operation in Washington. The headquarte! of the Soviet in the United States are located on Connecticut Avenue, one of Washington's fashionable sections of the cit and, while those in charge blandly disavow any intention of trying to influence the people of the United States in favor, of the Soviet form of Government, it is most unlikely that | this headquarters has, or will confine, itself merely to the sending out of “formal trade reports.” The establishment of this headquarters evidently selected by the Soviet leaders at a time when they thought they could sow seeds of dissension in the minds of the citi- zens of this country, but they had reckoned without advance knowledge of what the Supreme Court of the United States was going to do in the matter of upholding the New York state law against the preachment of anarchy. The decision of this, our highest legal body, will strengthen the opera- tion of existing statutes and will no doubt result in the p ing of néw laws in many states, —laws that will bé aimed at} communistic doctrines. Is The average citizen is too busy with his own personal , affairs to investigate the object of bolshevistic activities to! >! any great extent, but if one takes the time he will find that the men who scout the existence of God, who advocate free love, common law marriages and $1.40 divorces, are indus- triously spreading their doctrines, not only in the United States but throughout the world. For instance, a member of the French Chamber of Deputies, a communist, has been | found in direct communication with the enemies of his coun- try. A Soviet agent in China was found to be a member of the “Agitation Department.” The “Agitation Department” is one created for the sole purpose of sowing seeds of discord in contented and prosperous communities throughout the world. No lesser an individual than Honorable Robert Un- * derwood Johnson, former American Ambassador to Italy, states that we appear to be on the eve of new upheavals in many countries of the globe. He says that unrest has been fomented in India, Afghanistan, Persia, China, Morocco, and Mexico. All the great powers, England, Germany, Italy. - France and Japan, have burnt their fingers at this nephitic flame. Only the United States, with prudence and a fore- sight almost amounting to cl resisted this advance. Honorable Charles Evans Hughes, when Secretary = of State, openly denounced any recognition of the Soviet Secretary of State Kellogg takes the same co has within her borders today direct agents of = the Soviet Government who are doing their best to stir up trouble between the United States and that country. So far = the efforts of the Reds in this country have failed to impress . the farmer, the workman, or the business man. The only ones appearing to listen with any degree of seriousness to the communistic teachings of these Russian agents is the * small class of “higher intellectuals”,—the kind of individ- . uals who are always talking of reforming this or that but ~ who never do any actual work either for their families or for . their country. HEADLIGHTS You may think yourself a very careful, considerate auto = driver. But before you plume yourself too highly, ask your- self one more question: how do you handle your headlights? & Do you always dim them on approaching another car? Do you always keep them dimmed except when there are no = other cars coming and you can’t see to drive without having them on full tilt? - If you don’t you can’t qualify as a considerate driver. Bright headlights are a menace to everyone else on the =Yroad. Keep ’em dim. And don’t depend too much on glass lenses that are sup- =posed to diffuse the glare and render it unobjectionable. phos of them are pretty nearly as blinding as any other = kind. NATURAL a A weekly magazine has created something of a sensation * by baring an alleged plot whereby, it is charged, a certain < boxer was to have been eased into the world’s heavyweight _ championship. Why get excited about it? 4 Has professional boxing been conducted on so pure and # lofty a plane that a story like this should cause a flurry? Is _ this the first, or the hundredth, time that crookedness in the » boxing game has been exposed? ; No. This particular story may or may not be true. But it is exactly the sort of thing that is characteristic of the _ game as it is now conducted. . CANCER It is wonderful news that comes from London—that the 4 seym of cancer has finally been found.

New York, July 22.—Hot weather stories may not make for comfort these sultry days, but anyhow here's one that proves that chivalry is not dead in New York, even though many visitors think so. For the past year the city fathers charged with maintaining the vari- ous highways of the Bronx have come to the conclusion that for hon- est service Qie most suitable pave- ment is old-tashioned cobble stones with a healthy sprinkling of pebbles and a liberal allowance of black tar. Prospect avenue and 163rd_ street is a section of the Bronx where the sun beats down as hot as any place Traffic Officer Thomas Gray who has the station there claims: that it is the hottest spot in the borough. And to prove it he cites the predicament. of three young ladies on one recent hot day. Two of them lost one slip- per each and the third lost both and came near serious injury from an auto, and all because of the pave- ment. The tar softened under the hot sun and closed its oozy mass around the heels of the stylish young things, causing Officer Gray to pull a Sir Walter Raleigh by carrying them to the shelter of the concrete sidewalks, Each attempt to free an imprisoned shoe resulted in the loss of the heel. One young thing, both of whose shoes stuck fact, was forced to flee an oncoming auto in her stockinged feet, only to be caught and held fast once again. “What those girls said about those pavements, I wouldn't dare tell the borough president. It isn’t proper to use that kind of language to an official,” said Officer, Gray. Amsterdam Avenue between 61st and 64th streets is probably the most religious thoroughfare in the coun- try. On a Sunday afternoon the colored people of the neighborhood gather in the streets and conduct revival meetings out in the open. Sometimes there are three or four prayer meetings in progress on one block. And these colored worship- ers take their religion very serious- ly—and also very noisily. Their prayers and pleadings with God may be heard blocks away. The Church of Saint Paul Apostle has always struck me being one of the most beautiful church edifices in the country. 4 have often admired its simple Gothic architecture. The other day as I long I saw that two lio towers had been erected to broadcast the church choir on Sunday afternoons. One passing wag remarked, “Looks as though the angels are going to practice high diving.” the A scene in a theatrical booking office.

I told Imy father that I thought I would travel for a while, if he were willing, and then, perhaps, I would buy a ranch out west and live the life of a country gentleman, “The idea of the ranch came to me at that moment. I laugh at it now, but it seemed to please my father. “He looked at me with something The Tangle ::-: more akin to pride than he had ever had before. Then he asked. “Melville, do you think it strange that I have never said anything to you about your mother? “Il thought if there was anything you wanted me to know, sir, you would tell me about it in your own good time,’ I answered. “‘Your mother, my boy,’ he went! on in strangely choked voice, ‘de-| serted you and ran away with a man who called me his best friend.” Oh, Little Marquise, ean't you un- derstand how I pitied him!

Rowell The spectacle is predicted in the next Congress of the Democrats out-Melloning Mellon. Instead of cutting the maximum surtax to 25 per cent, as Mellon proposes, some of the Democratic leaders are talking of half that. ne The argument, according to cynical Washington corre- spondents, who never see any but vote-getting motives, is that last year the Democrats tried the experiment of joining with the insurgents, on the supposition that it was popular to lower the taxes on small incomes and keep them up on large ones. But, from the election, they concluded that there was something unpopular about their party, and inferred that it must be this. So now they may try the reverse policy to the rich” or to bluff the poor. injure the poor, by lowering creasing unemployment. into thinking that you have seems to favor the poor is likely to be the one which they pay them- selves, most burdensomely. THE GREAT ADVANCE OF MEDICAL SCIENCE Step by step, science is approach- ing the point when there will be nothing left to die of except violent or old age. From two sources, one in Canada and one in France, neither of them quack, come reports of apparently promising progress toward a specific cure for tuberculosis. This news, it is fair to add, is of no present practical interest to any- one now afflicted. Neither treatment, if successful, will be available in time to be of use to anyone who is beyond re- covery by present hygienic methods, or to make it safe for any one who needs the treatment to delay taking it in the hope of something more specific. But if some specific, for cure or immunity, is developed, one of the major plagues of mankind will be gone. An “emergency cheat every home. When little James falls and cuts his head on the kitchen table or dad steps on a nail in the cellar a first-aid treatment often prevents serious consequences.

The very tax that There is,far to go; but consider the progress that has been made, since medicine became partly scien- tific, within the last 50 years. The acute infectious diseases are some of them mastered, and the rest on the way to mastery. Tuberculosis is already largely curable, without a specific remedy, and that is almost in sight. Cancer is still a puzzle, but al- ready there is knowledge enough to save multitudes of sufferers, if they will take advantage early ' enough (with the emphasis on the “early”) of that knowledge. Diabetes is not cured, but con- trolled, so that it can be lived with “Bright's disease” is harder, but something can be done even with that. \ “Heart disease” covers a large range of conditions, many of which can_be prevented. There is much still to do, but if this generation does as well as the last, the normal working life of our grandchildren should be 80 years.
