yv‘“fl So This.Is Lfmdon.’ At last London is acquiring the ice habit. Big stores have put in fountains for ice drinks and ice cream can be bought practically all over town. A few years ago Americans m, London were compelled to go | in searching parties for a cool drink, a bit of ice or ice cream. Iced drinks and ices in mod- eration go far toward making summer bearable — more healthful and more com- fortable. The wise housekecper has already .arranged for regular American serv- sce.

Dean Bratenahl’s Record. Dean Bratenahl came to the Wash- ington Cathedral in 1906. One of his largest works has been in connection with the c truction of the great ca- thedral, which it is hoped to complete within five or more vears, at a cost of about $5.000.000. Dean Bratenahl's work in th connection is declared by his supporters to stamp him as a far- sighted, aggressive business man and good administrator. Dean Bratenahl was born in Ohio in 1862, and was Williams College in s held here by 1883, Dr. Smith Highly Regarded. Rev. Dr. C, Ernest Smith, whose name sprang into added prominence oday, on the eve of the election, has long been highly regarded .in iocal church circles. He was grad uated with honors from the Uni- versity College in the University of yurham, England. He received the egrees of master of arts and doctor of divinity from St. John's College, ‘Annapolls, Md., as well as other de- grees. Dr. Smith was ordained in 1883. He been the rector of St. Thomas Church since 1902, Before coming to Washington he was for ten years rector of St. Michael's and All Angels’ Church, Baltimore.

He has.been a delegate to the last three general conventions of the Episcopal Church. Every one knows that the Hup- mobile is a safe car to buy, and a saving car to own.

In great cities, more {particularly in Moscow, many new factorles were arising. The textile | production of Moscow, the gigantic metal works of Petrograd, the iron and coal industries of the Don basin and the oil production in the Cau- | casus were all jumping up. The Urals and Siberia were revealing great min- eral treasures, which were rapidly being exploited. Many new enter- prises were carried on with foreign capital, notably British, and factories were organized with British or Ger- man managers and foremen. Lan- cashire foremen were found in near- 1y every textile mill. America had the International Harvester works outside Moscow, employing several thousand hands. Works like the Morosov, city of Viadimir, in which British 'and” Russia capital co-op- | erated, were models to the world. The industrial workers, in the years | before the war, numbered between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000. Their wages, from' the point of View of western in- | dustry, were low. At their head came | the metal workers, whose earnings |averaged $200 a year each _ Their | worst social grievance was the bad | housing. But their lot generally was much better than that of the peas- | ants, from whom they were drawn. No Bosses; Little Work. The working men wished to run their factories themselves. It was over this that the great struggle came | between them and the Kerensky gov- ernment. Communism gave them the control they desired. The old owners were eliminated, foremen and man- agers were driven out and outside financial control was ended. Shop committees, or factory soviets, took their places. . The mediate result was chaos. With no one to control them, men came to work when they pleased spent most of their time in discus- sion, and produced little or nothing. | The leaders of the commune, recog- nizing that this meant disaster, strove to introduce the idea that the state was as vitally concerned as the trade: unions In the success of industry | and the state must have a voice in its management. Trotsky went further (\mn this. He urged, in the darkest hours of communism, that industry | be militarized and that the workers be formed into armies and disciplined like soldiers. The violent quarrel that followed nearly disrupted new Russia, and it needed the conciliatory | methods of Lenin to effect a compro- mise. PLANS FOR MOVING GOLLEGE ADVANCED Favor Bringing Randolph- Macon to American Uni- versity Here. Plans for moving Randolph-Macon College from Ashland. V to the American University here. were ad- vanced a step today when, at a meet- ing of the board of trustees of the university, a committee of five was appointed to confer with a similar committee representing the trustees of that college. After conferences these committees are to report back within a year to their respective ! boards of trustees It is thought by those in closest touch with’both the college and the university that the consolidation will be effected. This was indicated at the meeting of the trustees of the uni- versity in the hall of history today. ; Change Favored. “Trustees of the college have thought for some time that a change of site was necessary in order that the school might maintain its old position as one of the most prominent Methodist- endowed colleges of the country. The roposal now under consideration pro- for consolidation o with American University, also Metho- dist endowed, but with preservation of the identity of the Virginia institution. It is pointed out that the proposal. if approved, would give American Uni- ity an undergraduate student body the establishment of athletics and other school activities, The proposal will be formally placed before the Randolph-Macon trustees at a meeting on June 11. If approved at this meeting, it must also be submitted to the Methodist conference before the consolidation could actually take pla If the move is made. the property no occupied by the college would be utilized by the Methodist orphanage, located at Ashland. Advantages Here.
