FENWICK i c l (| 1315 New York Ave. Do you remember how you used to sit before the old barrel stove jn the parlor, or before that “new fangled” latrobe, watching the glow of the cheery winter fire.through the “isin- glass” windows? since the basemeAt furnace has gen- e|erally supplanted the troublesome, pesky things the producers of “isin- glass” must have long since. gone bankrupt; but there's more demand !for it now than ever befofe, says the United States bureau of mines, Any way, it wae not isinglass at all in the front of the stove. Had it been, it would have lasted long as paper, for isinglass is made of the air bladders of certain fish, and is a soluble, combustible substance. What really was in the ftove windows was mica, one of the oddest of nat- ural substances, and which is now one of the greatest boons in the electrical industry as a perfect insulator. So |important is mica in slectrical goods, it is declared, that many of the larger electrical supply manufacturing com- panies own and operate thefr own mica mines. Group of Several Mimernls. Mica, says the bureau, includes a group of several minerals character- ized by a perfect basal cleavage by virtue of which they may be split into exceedingly thin plates. How often, as a youngster, did you make wonderful finds of “gold” or “silver” among the rock deposits near the homestead? Of course, the dreams of wealth vanished when you found the silvery or golden flakes were only mica. Such mica has no commercial value, it is only when it occurs In large deposits where it ap- pears in “books” fairly free from de- fects, varying in width and length {from'a few inches to feet and up to {six inches or more in thickness, it is {of value. Of the several varieties of the min- eral only two are of commercial value. the “muscovite” or white mica, lnnfl the “phlogopite” or amber. In dia. Canada and the United States lare the chief procucers. Mica possesses a combination of special qualities which js found in no other substance, -consequently no satisfactory substitute has ‘been found. Chief among these qualitics are elasticity, toughness, flexibility, transparency, ability to withstand excessive h and sudden changes of temperature, high dielectric strength, cleavability and resistance to decomposition.

As sheets in BY PAUL SCOTT. MOWRER. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily Copyright, 1922, THE HAGUE, July 3.—The writer is able herewith, for what he be- lieves to be the first time, to tear away the veil which has been obscur- ing the evolution of the red army dur- ing the last year. The source of the correspondent’s Information is not Russian. but technical and reliable. The revelation is little short of as- tounding. Thanks to the tremendous effort of Leon Trotsky and the soviet government the army which in March, 1921, at the time of the conclusion of peace with Poland was a disor- ganized rabble of 5,000,000 men, has ews. clent modern basis and could take the fleld immediately, well armed and equipped, in conditions well calcu- lated to inspire terror in Russia’s western neighbors. Observers all agree that there are only two really effective organiza- {tions In Russia today—the Cheka and the army. One assures the govern- ment's interior position; the other se- cures it against foreign foes. It is these two forces which stand behind Finkelstein, alias Max Litvinov, and his fellow delegates hcre at The Hague and enable them to spend with such haughty assurance.

By July there were only 2,700,000 men there were only 1,600,000 men of the |three classes and at this figure the army now stands. The new officers are all good communists carefully chosen. There is great staff activity. Plans are being made for fast general mobilization, for improvement in transportation and the development of war industries over a period Of several years. Thirty-six per cent of the 1922 budget, or a total of 683,000,000 gold rubles. is being devoted to the army and navy, with 32,000,000 gold rubles | subsidies ‘to war industries. An en- tirely new study and trainin@ pro- gram for officers Is being rushed through. At the Lresent time there are 250 military schools, with more than 50,000 students. There are two staff colleges, one higher artillery school, an engineering, marine, elec- tro-technical supply school. a war chemistry, aeronautical and tank school and a physical cultuce institute. { For peace time there will be not only permanent military achdemies, but military normal schools with | three-year courses for active army officers and one-year for reserve offi- cers. All yduths more *hgn sixteen vears of age are being made to undergo preliminary training exer- cises with proper political indoctrina- tion. Several excellent military week- lies and monthlies are being pub- lished, with articles on all modern subjects drawn from practical ex- perience in recent wars and revolu- tions. The clothing and equipment of the army has been greatly improved. The savings on the reduced food ra- tion are being devoted to this pur- pose. ; Reductl n War Work. War Industry is working on a basis of 16 per cent of the former Russian maximum production, which was-in 1916. This far exceeds the produc- tion in other soviet industries. Fifty- two factories are now making war materials. Of these ten are making explosives. ten rifles and cannon and fifteen airplanes, the remainder mak- It is planned to increase the produc- tion as rapidly as possible and also i to start new facto: - The general aim is to make Russia military self- sufficient. \ | Progress is hampered by the un- solved coal crisis, [but plenty of raw stuffs are avallable. The supply serv- ice is still weak. but Russian privates are notoriously excellent forager: Transportation from « military poin: of view has been considerably im- proved. In 1918 there were roughly 9,000 locomotives, with 6,000 in.good condition. Now there are 18,500, with 7,000 in good condition, 11,000 dete- riorated and 500 ,unfit for service. Practically deterioration has been ar- rested. Meanwhile 700 ‘new locomo- tives have been ordered from Ger- many and 1,000 from Sweden. Two hundred and alrh!v from eaeh country are due for delivery this year. Fifty have been received already. The whole railway situation, while bad, is not so bad that it makes general mobilk tion or movements of troops impos- sible.

An unusual use for the ground prod- uct, which, savs the bureau of mines. “fortunately has not extended out- side India.” is in medicinal prepara- tions and wound dressings.

Ground mica is also used in annealing steel, as an absorbent, for nitroglycerin in | the manufacture of certain explosives, { as a _component in roofing, as a filler | in rubber and other products, in calico printing and as tire power. The purest and finer powder is used for wall paper decorations, as a lubri- cant for wood bearings. and mixed with oil as a lubricant for meta bearings.

The value of the older classes in case of gen- eral mobilization naturally is uncer tain, but Russian peasants are usual iy docile if strongly commanded, and it is believed that thé mobilization could succeed. Under the new economic policy the soviet government shifted the bases of its power from the workmen to the new soviet middle class and to the peasants, to whom it insures the own- ership of land and the right to di- pose of their produce freely.

LONDON, June 20.—One of the most distressing’ sights to American vis- itors in London is the appalling num- ber of ex-service men begging on the streets. Former soldiers and officers, | {some of them with distinguished irecords of gallantry, have found. it impossible to obtain’ either private or government employment, and are eking out a miserable existence by | open mendicaney,. peddling, gringing handorgans. singing or giving gym- nastic exhibitfons “fn the streets. | American tourists and others are openly assailed in the streets for the price of a meal or lodgings by these unhappy men. A picture of another kind is visible in the present busy and lavish social and court centers of London. The extravagance and improvidence among the rich, American visitors declare, would feed many thousands of the nation's domibilized -defenders, while the money needlessly lavished on dress, style and empty court cere- monials would keep them clothed for a year. {FOUR PERSONS KILLED AS TRAIN -HITS AUTO By the Associated Press.
