The particular reason for rejoic- ing among the Kremlin leaders 1 this year is the success of the col- lective farming plan. With nearly 70 per centof the farm families of the Soviet Union in collectives .and with a crop collection this year which the government says is as large as last year's in spite of bad weather conditions, Stalin and his feel the agricultural problem is well on its way to so- lution and the battle with kulaks is practically at an end. State farms have not made a gcod showing, but ‘they are being split up into smaller units so as to correct the lack of labor which bhas handicapped the farms run under the direct supervision of the government Siberia is the weakest spot in the agricultural program. That vast territory made a poor showing in grain contributions, falling far short of the plan. The government attributes this to inefficient party direction and a general shakeup is in progress in Cheliabinsk and oth- er sections where the kulak influ- ence has not been overcome. While light industry has made a rather disappointing showing so far this year, heavy®industry has almost fulfilled its plan so far and ‘STRATUSPHERE special effort is being made to fin- J ish the twelve-months with a per- GEI I-I N G PUT fect record. Copper, lead and brass have fallen far behind pig irom, steel and other branches of heavy industry. Crude oil has also lagged. The Russian Communist party apparently is in good condition.

LR LI VETERAN MINER VISITS Alaska mining man, ' WINES PASSED PARIS, Nov. 6—A French hotel director, who has made a study of drinking habits, says the ice water is the favorite drink of Americans who come to France, and not cock- tails or wine. As an example, he cites a group of Americans from 25 states who. stayed at his hotel for a week. Out | of 125, only 15 drank anything but water, he says, and some of these iced tea. “During prohibi " he says, a| great many Americans believed it their duty to experiment with the wine card. Now that Americans can legally drink whatever they wish in their own country, they have re- | lapsed into their water-drinking ha- | hits. ' “When Americans dine alone in Paris, water is usually the beverage on the table. although you see milk and iced tea occasionally. When they are accompanied by French friends, a bottle of wine is ordered, but the, Frenchmen ysually drink it alone.” = P R FOUR LEAVE ON ALASKA Four passengers left on the Al- aska for southern ports yesterday | afternoon.
