AMERICANS CHEW GUM, LOVE MOVIES Hlexis Wiren Gives Talk on Russia at Y. M. Alexis Wiren, of the international committee of the Y. M. C. A.,, spoke to members of the Hi-Y club last evening about the future relations be- tween Russia and the United States. Mr. Wiren is a Russian, having been in this country only four years. How- ever, he speaks very good English and he furnished a wealth of infor- mation concerning conditions in his country.s \ He said that in order to have re- lations with another person you must be well acquainted with that person. It is the same way with countries. Russia knows very little about the United States, and the people here | know little of that large foreign country, Mr., Wiren's impression of | American people was that they al- ways chew gum, love the movies! above every thing else and that they | have a fondness for ice cream. “Russia’ is about seven times as| large as the United States, yet it| took only two or three years for it to be destroyed. Now, to show con-| ditions there, it costs ten thousand rubles, normally about five thous- and dollars to send a letter from Rus- sia to America,” The economic sit- uation is very desperate because the people are not doing anything, they are living on what they have been able to save up from other times. Mr. Wiren described the Bolshevik idea of government, saying that they ' Police Sergeant and Subordinate 2. [trolmen, and Sergeant George C. th the peo wint to produce surplus o ple do not of food, for as soon as the crops w gathered they would be taken from the producers. This 18 one of the reasons for the famine in the region of the Volga river, There, the people have often become cannibals because of their extreme hunger, They have lost their faith in God and in other people, “They think that all other coun- tries are in the same condition as a result of the war. They can not im- agine anything different, At the pres- ent time a pair of shoes costs a year's salary, It is easler for Americans to get an automobile than it is for the Russlans to get a palr of shoes,” he sald, Mr. Wiren s a graduate of the Massachusetts institute of 'Technol- ogy, having accepted the position with the TInternational soon after leaving college, The speaker for negt week will be 8. 8. Day, academic secretary of Yale university., Mr, Day ts well known fo New DBritain young men, and he is very well fitted to speak to them. He was one of the principal speakers at the Older Boys' Conference last year. FLLINGER AGAIN IN THE LIMELIGHT committee Fngage in Argument That things are not right as yet in the local police department, is borne out in an occurrence last night at the station house. For several weeks, stories have been prevalent that fric- tion exists between many of the pa- 11- linger. The latest episode transpired early last night before the men had left their room upstairs in the police station, between the sergeant and Patrolman Michael M Y, one of the most efficient members of the force, Just what was the real cause of the am' la8t night has not been called to the attention of the hcad of the department. It has been the custom in the past QFM the men have been called to attg¢ntion by the sounding of a bell and/ were then subjected to an inspection by the street sergeants. It is said that Patroimgn Massey did not satisfy Sergeant IEllinger in manner in which he put *“pep” into his response last night and the argu- ment then ensued. Rawlings in the Dark. Chief Rawlings wes asked today ve- garding the affair, and he stated that no official report of the episode had been called to his attention. Just why such an affair should not be reported is a matter of conjecture. Patrolman Edward Kieley, when he lined up be- fore the desk downstairs last night, politely tried to ascertain just what the sounding of the ‘bell in the pa- trolmen's room 'meant. His answer from the man in charge brought no satisfaction. Public Getting Wise. It would not be surprising if in the near future “something broke” in the police department. The recent announcement that the police com- mission had contained in the budget for next year a sum for the appoint- ment of six additional patrolmen has caused some of the taxpayers to turn attention to the police department. For the first time in the history of the department, there are four men in the detective bureau. It is argued that despite the tendency on part of some to violate the liquor laws there is no good reason for the taking of three men off night duty and fix them up with soft day jobs. It is argued that the enforcement of the law should be put right up to the patrolman on every beat and the con- duct of those on the beat would be placed directly at the door of the pa- trolman.
