TIVE RUSSIAN rrNDULuM DY Arthur
Rullard. Tho Macmillan Company New
York.
AS former editor of "Thc Masses"
and representative of the Committee
on Public Information in Russia during
the war. Mr. Bullard looks upon the
development of tho Russian revolution
from two rather contradictory view
points. He is heartily in sympathNwith
the overthrow Of Czarsm and is in
clincd to look with favor upon radical
solutions OF the social and economic
problems which confronted tho new re-
public On the other hand. he cannot
forgive the Russians in general, and
the Bolsheviki IN particular, for con
Guiding separate peace with Ger
many
The same conflict of views appears
when MIR Billiard comes to discuss the
question Of intervention. He feels that
the original occupation of Archangel
and Nladivostok by the Allies was JUS
titled by the subscrvlcnce of the Boil
shovik regime to Germany and by
Trot2ky's attacl, upon the Czccho-Slo-
vaks. But he hestitates TO express an
opinion either for or against iMtorven-
ton at the present time. lie IS en-
phaticAl)v opposed to Bolshevsm. but
he chcrishcs somS doubt as To the dom-
ocratic ideals Of kolchak and Denkine.
lie is convinced that the hope Tor Rus
sjn's political regeneration lies ~ a
coalition Of The liberal and moderate
Socialist e emeuts, and he secs in the
cooperativa societies, which have sur
vived all the storms Of revolution and
civil war, an excellent agency for the
rcTiVal ol Russian economic hfc.
The author was in Moscow and Petro-
grad until tie summer OF 1918, when he
left for Siberia where he spent s@N-
eral months before returning to Amer
ica. He dcvotes the FIRST part of tho
book to the course Of events in Euro
poan Russia then he takes up tho sit
untion in siberia; in three concluding
chapters he Ci cusscs the elements
which must be considered IN formulat-
ing an Allied policy toward Rps ia.

Unconventional America
Waldo Frank Interprets American Life,
Past and Present. From Radical Viewpoint

OUR AMERICA by Waldo Frank. Boni s.
Liveright. New York.
Like Barnard's statue Of Lincoln,
Mr.. Franks Interpretation Of America
Is distinctly unconventional in its out
lines. Applying the economic inter
nretation of history with merciloss
rigor. he declared that "America has
always been an experiment in CONNER
cialized politics" He adopts Profess
sor Boards icouoclastic views about
the character and motives of the revo-
lutionary patriots, and he irrevercntly
subjects the Pilgrim Fathers to the
tests of Froudlan rsychoa4aiysis.
Leaving the realm Of history and
coming down TO the present day, Mr..
Frank is equally scorn'ul OF the, ac-
cepted ruling doities. He sees the
hope of q freor. broader, defrer Amcri-
can lie in groups of political heretics
and artistic rebels who are generally
oorsiGe ~ed undcr the ban o. resre.. t.

and the movies, and get t-culturc-quicl'

 AS DEPRESSION IS OPPOSED

men and other questions remain to be settled in many lines of industry.
 But the turn has come. The tide no longer ebbs. It has begun to. rise That is as certain as anything can be from the evidence before us.
 Americas recovery from ''the shock of peace" has been marvelously rapid. Few students of world affairs expect ed definite signs of it before June l. Now the proof is here, more than a month ahead of the most optimistic ex- pectations.
 The man who said Always be bull on America" was a prophet incompar- able
 America never had more work to do than it must do in the period now dawning. It must feed, clothe, furnish and finance goodly portion of the world. If it does this honestly and we'll it will win for itself world trade that will make it's prosperity greater and more enduring and of more ben eft to mankind than that of any na- tion in all the march of time.

Leading American Authority on Busi-
 ness and Finance and Special Econ
 omic Contributor to the Daily
 Review.
 The tide has turned.
 Dismiss all notions that this coun- try is going to. have depression, unem- ployment, hard times.
 A period of great activity is near. The problem soon will be to find men for jobs rather than jobs for men.
 No one capable of reading the barometer of business can mistake the signs.
 Here they are:
 Tn the months of January and February the building and engineering contracts signed in that portion of America east of the Missouri river and north of the Ohio exceeded in amount those of the corresponding months for the last ten years, except 1917 and 1918, when we spent extraordinary sums on munition plants and war structures. They are nearly 45 per cent greater than the January-FeD- ruary average for the six years 1900- 1906 inclusive. What is more signifi- cant is that, while January of this year showed we'll, the swell did not begin to shaw fully until February and has continued increasing during March and April.
 2.-Commodity prices continue ro decline.
 s-Trade reports show a pro- nounced demand for overaIls and workingmen's shirts.
 4.-Wall street, which always is able to forecast prosperity or depression, has given evidence through the stock market of a pronounced revival.
 There is not an even distribution of the contracts. In Ohio, western Penn sylvania and West Virginia they are below par.
 In Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Missouri and eastern Kan sas they are bigger than ever record ed in corresponding months.
 In New England they are below the average.
 In New York they are fair.
 In Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington they are nearly twice the normal amount.
 The northwest has not begun to feel the impulse.
 The president of great uniVer-
 sity estimates that this country is
 S5,oOO, o0o, 900 behind requirements
 in building and engineering opera
 tions. His estimate may be high,
 but there is no doubt we are in
 need of more construction than
 ever before in our history.
 Now that a beginning has been made the sentimental and material ef- feet will spread through every branch of industry.
 Railroads and trolley lines are in urgent need of 5,OOO,OOO tons of steel this year. Their financial condition has been improved greatly by the mild ness of the winter. Hundreds of trolley companies that faced bankruptcy S few months ago now see daylight ahead. Snow costs the railroads and trolley companies many millions or dollars ordinarily. The comparative lack of snow and ice not only saved them from tremendous expenditures last winter but traffic was unprece- dentedIy large owing to the gooc weather.
 General trade is reported far better than merchants expected. A banner winter wheat crop is announced and never, in 50 years, were food animals in such good condition after winter.
 All this does not mean that active nrosuerous times are coming with a rush. There are many works or re- adjustment to be completed. The dis location of labor still presents some difficulties. Prices of goods, wages or

BALL STAR IS BACK TO NATURE

''My dreams have come true, anu now I can fish and hunt to my hearts content" declares Johnny Berkel, for merly of Bisbee, in letter to friends here. Berkel is now located near Spo- kane, Wash, where he has purchased tract of land and is doing the 'back to nature" stunt
 Berkel worked for several months ID the Junction mine in this district, and during the last baseball season played second base on the Calumet & Arizona team. Three months ago he left for Washington, with the purpose of quit ting the wandering life of the baseball player" and settling on a farm"
 In his letter to the local boys with whom he worked and played ball, he described his new home as a paradise for the hunter and fisher "A little stream runs right through the heart of my land, and can get fresh trout any time l want them;" he says. Be lieve me, I'll get my fill of hunting and fishing now. My dreams have come true"

Germans Threaten
to Take Provisions
of Poles in Prussia
By associated Press

London, Jan. H. The Germans
have determined to seize all pro-
visions in the hands of the Poles in
Prussia, If the Polish provinces of
Germany are to be restored to Po-
land, according to reports from an
authoritative source published in the
newspapers to-day. If Germany can
keep these Polish provinces, Chan
cellor Ebert has declared, she can
increase her influence to the south
and east and one day reconquer
in the west what she has now lost.
This assertion was made by the
chancellor at a secret meeting of
all parties, at which he also stated
that Germany will reconquer the
west through the east. If, on the
other hand, Germany should lose the
Polish provinces, the rebirth of po-
litical power through pacific efforts
at expansion to the east would be
impossible.
