It is as amazing a tale as has grown out of the j}war. Paul logolevitch, then not yet 13 |years old, was studying the violin under Leopold Auer when the war broke out. One day something happened that made music a dead issue for Paul for a long time to come—he heard the accusation, made the length and breadth of Russia, that the 3 |Jews were not doing their patriotic duty | in the war. The violin was put aside. Paul ‘went to his father, who was then a surgeon in the ezar’s army, with the rank of colonel, tand demanded that he too be taken into the army. And he was! The elder logole- vitch’s idea, when his son became insistent, was to let the boy have a taste of war that would give him enough of it once for all, and send him home. J’aul was admitted to the army as regimental messenger with /the rank of corporal in his father’s detach- |ment. But “The Young not sent home. tussian Corporal” was The pet of the regiment at first, he was treated more or less as a mascot. Then the grim pressure of war cut out all the playing in the arrangement. He was intrusted with the delivery of im- | portant dispatches under fire, and made A ! good, He was sent on perilous missions thru the German lines, and had many a taste of real fighting in hand-to-hand skir- mishes of German outposts.

This industrial revolution, as it has been d, resulted in a good deal of misery and loss. It all started when machinery began to appear and fac- sprang up here and there to do the work which had b done in the homes by hand. 4 "A machine, for instance, was introduced which would the work of 10 men. The workmen looked at it and mred that if it would do the work 10 men could do by d and only needed the attention of one man, nine men be thrown out of work. On this snap judgment “went straightway and started strikes that lasted 30 hey didn’t stop to realize that the machinery helped ‘man multiply his output by ten and that as soon as system became general there would be ten times as It took 30 years to learn that increased production ms more for every one and that cutrailed production every one in the long run. Right now we are facing a high c } ‘a greatly increased demand and a slowing up of produe- during the past four years. We pay double prices everything because we have been trying to “get all we an and give as little as we can.” If we are to solve our living problems we must forget tion and legislation and go on a producing crusade, one of us should produce all we can on every working day. There is no danger of unemployment from over- production provided people are sensible. Overproducing only comes when one industry gets away ahead of every ost of living caused by else. If we could double production, the cost of everything would drop to about half the present levels, wages would temain the same, and every dollar would buy twice as much. Gen. Pershing requested that when his special car was on the siding in the Seattle railroad yards, he would not be disturbed until 9 o'clock in the morning. We don't blame him. We stood reveille ourselves for two years. Uncle Sam’s Pocketbook y Reckless spending of the people’s money by congress is reaching an alarming point when, according to Congress- man Mondell, the proposed cost of government for the next fiscal year can be cut, not a small amount, ,000,000 ! It is high time we stopped speaking of “billions” as we} used to speak of “dozens.” It is time we wakened and realized that $1,000,000,000 is an enormous sum to be taken from taxpayers’ pocketbooks. Five years ago it was more than enough to run the national government for a year. Now we are told that it is the amount that can be “saved” by pruning proposed expenditures. By all means, let’s save it! “Pershing may have been C. O. of the A. E. F.,” says Ez-Private Buck, “but I was a K. P. myself.” To the Huns Pershing spelled Perishing! General Washington, General Jackson, General Grant! And General Pershing? Says the Denver Post: “Here’s to the yeast that raised the doughboy—General John J. Pershing.” And here's “to the West, where Jack developed his “kick.” And when the welcoming committee gets thru with immediate job, let us trust they will keep alive their tribute to General Pershing by treating our returned thboys to regular employment. ite. tant for Seattle to provide a proper landing place harbor facilities.
