What hap- pens? Congress, to begin with, is permit- ted to die of malnutrition. It is suf- fered to exist for a few years longer as a sort of vermiform appendix, but/ its functions are gone. In its place rises a Council of Cor- porations. Here we have representa- 1.20 | tives from the great industries. One group represents the steel trust, an- other the coal trust, another the oil 09 |trust, another the tobacco trust, an- and 80 on, down! other agriculture, the line. It ig a nice question whether you go |could say that these industries are ‘under government control or that 00 they control government. One of the indirect benefits of America’s action in recognizing Rus- sia will be the clarification in the American mind of the situation which now exists in that country. For 16 years America has been fed on the most variable diet imaginable, in so far as Russia is concerned. One returning traveler tells us they are doing great things over there; that their industries are booming, everyone is happy, conditions are im- proving rapidly and that Russia soon will be a paradise on earth for the individual lucky enough to live there. A second traveler reports that the people are kept in virtual slavery; that their industries are backward and have been grossly mismanaged; that the people are starving and have little hope of any improvement in the future. Between these two extremes, obvi- ously, the truth lies. What it is and a definite means of translating it into understandable American terms are needs which should be met when dip-| lomatic intercourse has been restored’ and we are able to get real facts on the subject. In this connection, a special edi- tion of the Moscow Daily News, print- ed as of Nov. 7, has been mailed to the leading newspapers of the United States. It is gotten up in tabloid form and is quite creditably done. In fact, scanning the by-lines, it is ap- parent that some of the articles were written by Americans. The newspaper is obviously a prop- aganda edition, else it would not have been printed in English, and it pre- sents the bright side of Russian con- ditions. It is replete with pictures of fine} buildings and enormous factories. In- dustrial production figures are given which would reflect credit upon American enterprise. A review of the troubles, struggles and achievements iw “rationalizing” Soviet agriculture is offered. Those Kulaks, it seems, have been stubborn, The army, art and music all come in for consideration and the show- ing, taken at face value, is a good one. Of course, only the most credulous will regard it as 100 per cent accurate. Because the newspaper tells under what fine conditions some miners in the Ural mountains are laboring, does not indicate an untruth. Neither need we infer that other miners in ‘the same district are not working under hellish circumstances. The best we can say is that we do not know and hence we are forced to take what is told us with considerable salt, knowing full well there are two sides to every picture. But this much seems obvious on its face: The Soviet has achieved and maintained stability for 16 years. It has imported thousands of techni- cians from this and other countries. Tt has unquestionably engaged in large enterprises. Some of them have succeeded —and the opportunity is vast. Also, it is apparent that a change dy Te understand fully what it means, : Antieyetive to make ap imagina- # At any rate, we go on down the line and find all our existing labor unions put on the scrap heap, to be replaced by huge vertical organiza- tions, or guilds. All the workers in the steel industry are grouped in one body, all the automobile workers in .; another, and so.on, And these unions are not like any labor unions we pre- viously have known. They cannot ent, In politics there would be only one party—the Democrats. It would be a rubber stamp for the president and his advisers. Its members would never dissent from the policies of the inner circle. ly. Republicans, if they opened their mouths, would be sent to the new prison on Alcatraz Island. Newspaper editors would submit their editorials to Jim Farley for correction. Herbert Hoover and Norman Thomas would migrate to Canada. William Z. Fos- ter would be shot. It would be pretty hard to think of &@ more topsy-turvy arrangement. By imagining what life in such a cast- irdn straitjacket would be like, we can get a new conception of the supreme importance of bringing our demo- cratic institutions through the pres- ent trying times intact. The Jazz Idea Silliness of the statements that educators occasionally make about the movies is rivaled only by the silli- ness of the statements they some- times make about jazz music. ‘Thus we have, currently, the di- rector of the New York Schools of Music asserting that jazz music is “as vicious as obscene literature” and should be abolished. | “Close your eyes when you hear| the new-day jazz rhythm and what do you see in your mind?” the gen-/| tleman asks. “You sec naked savage | bodies swaying to music of the lowest | order.” | Well, maybe. You sec, usually,/ what's in your own mind to begin with; and if that’s the picture jazz music gives you, the trouble may lie in your own skull and not in the) saxophone.

Killing the Devil (New York Times) ‘Two hundred and twenty-five years ago Dr. William King in his “Art of Cookery” wrote these affecting lines: Cornwall squab-pie, and Devon white-pot brings; And Leicester beans and bacon, food of kings. White-pot is just an ordinary baked bread pudding; but Cornwall squab- ple ought to be something particularly worth eating, Cornwall was long as famous for its ples as for its pilchards. ‘There was an old saying that the devil never went to Cornwall for fear he would be made into a pie. The Lon- don Times prints all too short a sum- mary of a lecture by Mr. Hamilton Jenkin, vice president of the Federation of Old Cornwall Societies, before the London Cornish Society. There isn’t a word about squab-pie. On the other ) We are told that a small cottage in the parish of St. Merryn was said to have been held for many years by one family in return for the sole quit-rent of a pie composed of limpets, figs and various sweet herbs. As a gentleman, the Prince of Dark- ness might well shudder at the thought of being inserted into a mess like that. Robert Stephen Hawker, the late ec- centric vicar of Morwnstow and au- thor of the stirring Cornish ballad whose refrain is “And Shall Trelawny Die?” describes a meal of seal and call strikes.

No reply can be made to qui WHY THE DOG PANTS Nearly ninety per cent of the heat joss of the body occurs through evap- cration of water from the ‘skin (sweat) and radiation and conduc- tion from the skin. Ten per cent of the heat loss occurs through the veporization of water from the lungs —the expired air is nearly saturated with water vapor. A dog pants in very hot weather because the dog’s skin is not equipped with vasomotor nerves over most of the body, nerves which in man, re- act to heat by producing sweating, and the dog’s hair interferes with} free loss of heat by radiation, so the warming more air with his lungs and vaporizing more water through the air he breathes. He pants to keep; cool. | Having learned that ordinary air} contains only 4 parts of carbon dioxide in a thousand, and the air a person expires contains nearly 44 parts of carbon dioxide in a thousand, some persons imagine that it is the in- creased proportion of carbon dioxide in the air that accounts for the ill! effects of “foul” air. This is not s0,! nor is the depressing effect of vitiated | cr “impure” air due to the diminished ; proportion of oxygen in the expired air (ordinary air contains more than 200 parts of oxygen in a thousand! and the expired breath-only 16 parts)./ It has been proved over and over again that ho unpleasant consequence cecurs when an individual breathes; air containing the proportions of car- ton dioxide and oxygen found in ex-| pired air. Wehn the comparative harmless- ness of expired air was scientifically established, some persons conceived a theory that an unrecognized “toxin” or “ptomaine” or similar organic poison exhaled from the lungs might account for the ill effects of “bad” air. But this theory is no longer enter- tained. We know now that the disagree- able symptoms produced by exposure to “foul” air and prevented or re- heved by “fresh” air, are due to over- heating of the air, increased hum- idity or moistute (evaporated by bodies) and stagnation of the air, ebsence of draft or motion. Subjects confined in hermetically sealed chambers equipped with means of cooling the air, keeping it in motion and removing excess of moisture, can breathe the limited amount of air over and over without suffering any un- Pleasant consequences, but if the fan stops or the other conditioning pro- visions are interrupted, the occupants of the chamber quickly develop the mental dullness, nausea, headache hBy other familiar symptoms of “bad” ir.
