(A—The Solo- vetaky Monastry—that desolate for- bldding prison eamp on Solovetsky island, in the frozen White Sen, which has been the terror of poli- | tical offenders under the Soviet re- gime—will soon becoms but an echo of the past, On recommendation of the stute political police, the council of peaple’'s commissars has decided to abolish the notorious prison, which houses several hundred secial revo- lutionists, mensheviks, anarchists and others who rehelled against the present government, The official decree directs that, heginning August 1, these and future prisoners of this eategory shall be interned in prisons | on the Russian mainland, | Tn the imperial days, the Selovet- | sky island with its ancient religious shrines, treasurers and traditions, was considered one of the holiest places In- Russia, but in 1921 the Bolsheviki eonverted it into an exile camp. Tts remoteness, fnaccessihility and cheerlessness appealed to them as particularly fitting for a place to | whieh to banish political dissenters. | For a long time reports were | printed abroad of hungetf strikes, | suicides ,outbreaks and other dis- turbances at the monastery-prison, | but these were denied by the Soviet. | The inmates included many pro- | minent members of the old nobility | and aristocracy, and the most active leaders of the social revolutionary party and anarchistic bodies tempts were made Dy s abroad to induce the Soviet govern- | ment to grant complete amnesty fo | |some of these prisoners, but the | Bolshevik officials ruled that the time for such amnesty had not yet arrived, 5,000 Y elpmg Dogs of All Sorts in Protest Rreslau, Germany, June 17 (P— | Five thousand barking, howling | velping dogs of every size and specics from giant shepherd dogs to diminu- | tive daschunds and from pedigreed | Saint Bernards to nondescript mixed | breeds were assembled on the, | Shriosspletz Monday.

Ashburn's, Ashburn is chairman of the In- land Waterways Corporation, cre- ated by Congress a year ago — a government enterprise, but intended 10 be run governmentally only with a view te demonstrating “the feasi- bility and economic value of water trangportation.” 1t is then to encourage establishment of private corpora- tions upon our navigable streams and canals, operating common car- is Brig. “the re- | rlers which will be of mutual bene- fit to the public and themselves,” America, General Ashburn marks in a pamphiet he has issued through the government, has experienced two stages of trans- portation and is entering on a third, re- just The first was the wagon and wa- | ter stage; the rail; today we need every available transporta- tion means — rail, the automobile, second, alr — we already are using or be- | ginning to use all these — and wa~ ter, This latter method we abandoned | during the period of our great rail- development but ought to be getting back to, for the handling of freight, because “it's means of transportation known.” D To show how very much cheaper water is than anything eise the gen- eral cites figures gathered in con- nection with his operation of the government’s experimental Warrior river and Louisiana the | Missis- | ~Washinglon e olellers and Alabama coastal lines, The fol- | lowing 13 typleal: \ “When 1 tell you that a large ( manufacturing concern of Alabama, which uses a certain kind of ore in Its manufactures, and owns its own mines of this ore in the state of Alabama, can yet get this same ore from Sweden, transport Jt by sea to Mobile, thence by our Warrior line to Tuscaloosa, Ala., and deliver it at its plant cheaper than it can pre= duce its own ore at Its' own mines, and transport it by rail to its man- ufactory, it will be brought home to you that there is something radical ly wrong in the present situation.' General Ashburn isn't trying te furnish a substitute for rail trans- portation or to force the railroads to cut their rates, He recognizes that many and per- haps most water hauls will have to be supplemented by tho roads, on some equitable rate division which the Interstate Commerce Commis- | son presumablp will fix, But setting everything else aside, he says, “the increasing demands of the country's commerce” will soon be beyond the raliroads’ power to meet without a tremendous en- largement of their facilities, He estimates its cost at 10 bils lion dollars in the next decade, His theory is that it will be better to minimize this expenditure on the railroads’ part and to devote part | of the money to waterways devel- opment, which costs far less and can be made, he thinks, to accoms plish just as much or more, Besides, the general doubts it the roads can possibly manage the necessary expansion of their serve ices, at any cost. | “When we reach a point,” he says, | “where it costs more and takes & | longer time to get a car in and out of a city like New York than it does to move it from New York to Philas delphia, the transportation system \is pretty well saturated.” i i Evolution—Pro and Con The subject t Tbout it ses the not what does he Does the th creation by God?
