This band of argonauts plan TO
sail through the Panama Canal to rhe
Pacific Ocean TO some South Sea
island where they fOndly believe no
tax gatherer dwells. But they have
been warned that the Chancellor from
whose fiscal oppression" they are
fleeing has ordered that before the
Medora hauls up her anchor in South
ampton Water a tax collector must
see TO It that they have all paid their
income taxes. These economical ar

Seas they can escape death and taxes,
from which no man is secure.
But they have forgotten one thing
in their quest. Under the beneficence
of the League Of Nations the South

TO it that the taxes are collected from
all the inhabitants Of those erstwhile

Looking for Adams Grandfather,

The invasion Of Europe by group
Of American scientists under the COM
mand of ROY CHAPMAN ANDREWS for
the purpose Of digging up the remains
of the earliest man Will excite curios-
ity everywhere.
The expedition may be contrasted
with that which President WILSON
and Colonel HOUSE led two years ago.
Mr.. ANDREWS is taking anthropolo-
glsts, ethnologlsts and geographers,
just as President WILSON did.
But the aims Of the two parties are
unlike. The Andrews party wants a
skeleton. The Wilson-House. expedl-
ton went abroad for miracle and
brought home cadayer.
If the explorers return with the
bones Of ADAMS grandfather they will
have the second deadest thing on
earth. The deadest Of all things is
the covenant which Mr.. WILSON has
lent to Candidate Cox.

collapse Of BoIsh.vIsm in the East.

The State Department at Wash
ington announces that mail communi-
cation over the Bagdad route with
Persia has been restored, and that
''it Is once more possible to enter and
leave Persia without hindrance."
This route had been entirely cus off
from the outside world for at least
three months. The important addi-
tionai information given by the State
Department is that 1.-THE danger of n
Bolshevik invasion Of Persia has
passed"
Early I'm June a Bolshevist force
seized Enzeli. on the Caspian Sea. the
most important port Of northern
Persia, and LEVINE declared that his
was a preliminary step in the occu-
patton OF Persia, and that the whole
country was to be placed under
Soviet rule directed from Moscow.
The unpleasant point, one that ap-
pealed particularly to the British
Government, was the possibility that
the threat might be carried out, and
that with this hold on Persia Boil
shevism might spread over central
Asia and southwark into Afghanistan
and India.
After the defeat Of the armies of
DENIKrSE and KoLcHAK, the Bolshe-
Wiki found an open way TO the
south and southeast. The Bolshevik
forces swept over Caucasia, occupying
the great oil centre Of Baku; they
overran the little republics which had
been set up there by Armenians,
Georgians and Caucasians and forced
the inhabitants to accept the Soviet
form OF government. MusTAPHA
Pasha, the leader Of the Turkish Ma
tionalist forces, then Mt the height Of
his successes announced that n con-
ventlon for the protection OF their
mutual interests had been entered
| into between himself and TRoTzKY.
and that he would be supported by
Bolshevik army II the Allies should
attempt to enforce the terms Of the
treaty OF peace with Turkey. SO
favorable was the entire situation IN
the Caspian region and central Asia
early in July that LENINE declared
that the East. and not the West was
to be the future field for Bolshevik
conquests.
But within three months 80 condl.
tons have undergone an entire change.
The support for which MusrAPHA
called was never forthcoming, the
small republics returned TO their
former Governments, the Bolshevist
forces were withdrawn from Enzeli
and on September %, according to
official announcement, they evacuated

163I788 sLACKERs HELD
Their Cases Had Been Dis

to July 15.r

wAsHINGroN, Oct. 19.--Draft evaders
who had been apprehepded up to July
Is land their cases disposed of by the
military authorities numbered 163,73S. It
wa;s announced to-day at the War De-
pertinent @t~
THE total number of draft assertions
which had been reported to. the Provost
Marshal General was 49S.033J' but ex-
animation of Government records showed
that 161,354 men classed as deserters
had enlisted in the army, navy or Ma
rine Corps or in the armed forces of the
Allies. so that the total number of de-
sertions still listed now numbers 1891.
The DEPARTMENTS announcement said
that as the examination of the records
progressed the number who served in
the, arTped forces and who consequently
were enormously reported as lwilful de-
serters was being added to from day to
day. It was added that probably sew
eral thousand men had been appre-
hended and their cases disposed of since
July 10.
ti 1.-THE number OF assertions Is being re-
duced, and will be further reduced after
the examination of the records in all
cases has been completed" said the, de-
partments announcement "a number
Of names will be eliminated through. the
receipt OF information now being OBJ
tanned from the Acknowledgements of the
States to whom the lists Of deserters
from their respective States were sent.
Information has been received within the
last few days from two of the smaller
States that enabled the department Ito
eliminate. forty names from the list Of
deserters. ,n.E''i .
Zone of the reasons for giving pub
LEFTY to the fact that the list Of deserters
was to be published was to cause all
those persons in whose mind there ex-
listed Doubt as to their final status to
write to the War Department in order
that their records Gould be investigated.
"Theitask of eliminating the names of
those who are not wilful deserters is a
difficult and tedious one. but the work
is being pushed as fast as the limited
clerical force will permit"

3aku WRANeEL has been gradually
extending his sway over the Crimean
and the Transcaucasian region Until
little remains there of the Bolsheyist
power. The State Department thus
states the situation briefly and sue
cinctly in its report that the danger Of
an invasion of Persia by the Boil
sheviki has passed. The plans of the
Moscow Soviet have collapsed as com
pletely in the East as they. have In
the West. rn ..s .af;fs..
The efforts to spread Bolshevism
westward have been barren of results
from the first move to establish Soviet
governments In Bavaria and Hungary
to the. recent disastrous attempt to
invade Poland. But so long as LENINE
and TRoTzKY could depend upon the
Fast as fruitful field for the spread
of their doctrines they. saw hop" Of

has now gone JOHN SPARGo, who re
Gently returned from eastern Europe
to Paris after an investigation Of Boil
shevism, says that he had talks with
all classes Of Russians. They are all
certain, he reports, that the Soviet
Government will collapse. Most of
them, indeed, believe that the cash
will come before the end of winter.
This despite the fact that the Soriets
are doing their utmost to stave Off dis
aster by granting privileges and striv-
ing desperately to strengthen the Red
army. The collapse of Bolshevism
Is inevitable. 1t Is now merely a
question of how long 1t will be be-
fore the whole wretched, III formed
structure falls into ruins.

The Six Score and One.

The. reiterated delight Of the Fve-
ming Post over its discovery that 121
Republicans are going to support Cox
Is childishly beautiful. The Post
counts 'em over, every one apart, Ike
the person in the song. 1t is as
pleased as a mother cat who has dis
covered that one Of her litter of kit
tens has escaped the drowning party.
Not everybody will take the list
quite as seriously as the Euening Post
takes it. There are those who r,call
that DR.. HENRY VAN DYKE, who Is on
the Posts list. has been classed az a
Democrat, or at least as a Wilson in
dependent, ever since President VIII
son appointed DR.. VAN DYKE as
Minister to the Netherlands. And
Mrs. EMMoNs BLAINE, also reported
as Cox convert, is tie daughter Of a
Yirginian, Cyrus H. MCCORMICK,
who was always considered a Demo
crat in national politics.
We cannot believe that Candidate
Cox is half as joyful over the acquisi.
lions as the Erening Post pretends it
is. If somebody with authority could
assure Candidate Cox that he was
going. to get the support generally of
the Democratic voters of this State,
or even Of this town, he might be gem
timely tickled. But he isn't going to
get it, and he knows it. Boss MURPHY
of Tammany Hall, who took % per
cent. interest in Cox at the French
Lick Springs conference, is not max
ing predictions of big vote for Cox
in New York.
Even the arrival OF Mr.. HERBERT
PARSONS In the camp of MURPHY,
Cox and the Evening Post has not
cheered up Fourteenth street. Mr..
MURPHY may have ascertained that
Mr.. PARSONS and the other New York
members Of the Erening Posts 121
have duly registered; but he knows
also, from the daily reports brought in
BY his own district leaders, that there
are about 10000 Democrats in this
city who have registered and who are
going to vote for HANDING. because
they can't stand the Wilson covenant
or the Wilson Administration.
. To the practical Mr. MURPHY the
difference at the polls between 121
highbrows and 10000 medium brows
is 149,S79 votes.

A Tenant Suggests Factors on Which
II Should Be Based.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: One OF
your correspondents asks what is fair

floor walkup apartment, while the occu-
pant OF the same space Immediately un-
der me on the third floor Is paying but
$50 month. Am I. as a tenant. being
dealt with fairly? .,Ft
My suggestion is that honest land
lords get together and fix fair rentals
and thereby stabilize the housing mar
ket. A fair rent Is not all they can
gouge out of tenants by virtue OF the
housing shortage. r A fair! rental " a

opportunity to. hold up the tenants. ~,
There Is a legitimate charge based
on the. location and convenience and
service rendered. 1t is the business OF
1.-THE administrators Of law and Justice to
ascertain a fair price from these items
and to prevent overcharges. In this'mat-

other legitimate function. To go into

Mr.. Hurley advocated an international
credit plan patterned. after existing CO.
operative marketing associations, with
the American merchant marine as the
nucleus OF the plan. and an interna-
tfonal bond issue of from $100,0Oo,00O
to s150.000.000 10 finance It.
Admiral Benson saw in the merchant
marine a means of uniting the. nations
Of the world and bringing them into

that modern battleship construction rem
