Since Viadivostok Is blocked by ice five months out of every year, Russia is anxious to be able to export goods across Manchuria, via Harbin, to Port Arthur. Manchuria is rich in gold. fron and coal mines, has extensive forests and raises huge crops of wheat, rice and tobacco. and has been getting immigrants from China at the rate of 1,000,000 a year, This sketch map, drawn by NEA Staff Russia and China are at swords' points ove cially on the defensive. much better than that Washington, July 30 — Any war between Russia and China would be likely to drag out for a long time Military experts believe that the Russian forces have a marked super- jority in training. equipment and morale, but the vast distance from Moscow across Siberia to Manchuria might for awhile at least, offset ths advantage.

That was approximately what happened in the war between Czarist Russia and Ja- pan more than 20 years agd, a strug- zle which probably would have end- ed with Russia on top if it had been permitted to continue. Comparison of the military strength of the two nations, on the basis of latest military information here and aside from geogaphical considerations, shows that the Red Army has n estimated active strength of 570,000 officers and men, exclusive of gendarmes and border guards; organized reserves of 1 500, 000 and about 5,000,000 men avail- able but untrained. China has an active military strength estimated at about 1 300,000 men, but she has no organ- i7ed reserves similar to Russia’s.

In a very few minutes there isn’t a live fly or mosquito—yet you can breathe the clean-smelling and almost invisible mist without harm, and it is stainless to fabrics. You don’t have to wonder if there are any flies or mosquitoes hiding where you can't see them. There aren’t. They're all dead. Flit kills moths, too. Keeping homes free of insects, so you can live in clean comfort, so you can sleep nights, is just another way of being modern, like riding in a motor car or enjoying the movies. Naturally you want the product that best kills insects. Well, Flit is the most videly used protection against insects in the world—the largest selling in- secticide. This is probably because it kills insects quicker and is easier to use, and because it is guaranteed to kill household insects or money back. i b Could anything be easicr than to spray Flit in behind the base-boards, down into cracks and crannies? That gets all the crawling insects, and their eags, 100, so you don’t have to wonder if your children are safe. You have kept them frec from at least one danzer—the diseases that insects What one woman tells another, you tell yourself today.
