Senator Joseph i. France of Mary

pose of visiting soviet Russia, has
been in communication with Leonid

the International Association of Nh
chinists, and Frank L. Mulholland,
are now at Riga. to obtain the assent
of the Moscow authorities to the re-
quest of the two men for permission
to cross the Russian frontier.
Senator France, who says he de-
eireS to make an economic survey OF
Russia because, in his belief, the
prospects of world peace and nor
mality would be furthered by the
early resumption of Russo-American
relations, reiterated today that he
was travelling in a purely private ca
pacity.
President Johnston of the machin-
lists organization is known here as
one of the leading American labor
advocates of the resumption of trade
with Russia, and Senator Frances
advices having given him the i'm
preston that Johnston was not re-
ceiving an unquestiOninS welcome
from the soviet authorities, the sena-
tor has been led to believe that his
own prospects are not any too
bright. If he does not obtain the de-
sired certiication through Krassin.
he intends to make a further attempt
in this direction at Berlin.

S.-Letters from reliable sources
in southern Russia have been re-

state OF affairs, among the people.
The food shortage is such that
hunger is the rule. Even the privi-
legged communist officials are un-
able to get enough to eat. The ra-
tions issued by the government are
insufficient to sustain life.
The prices of food are so high as
to be almost beyond reach. A
pound of bread cost 1.s0o rubles
(normally n ruble is worth about
so cents. but at present 1t has lit

do not exceed 5000 rubles a month.

COUNCILMEN WOULD
WELCOME VISITORS
AT THEIR meetings

The city council will take up the
budget for 1922 at their meeting
next Tuesday evening and will
thresh out the question of where the
money is coming from to pay the
expenses of government for the com
ing year. There is considerable To-
cal interest in the tax rate and
members OF the council have ex-
pressed desire that taxpayers come
to the meeting and familarize
themselves with the problems now
before the council.
The retiring board left unpaid
warrants of about $4,000 behind
them for the unpaid cost of last
years water works improvement,
which must be cared for, and furth-
er the city needs new fire truck
of adequate capacity, and with these
two items of expense it is going to
be a difficult problem to make the
revenues of the city reach clear
around the expenses.

Business Should Toot the Horn.

Every business man has paused
recently to go over his own conduct
with the eye of stern censorship to
find wherein he has contributed to
the present business depression.
Some have gone deep, but others
have been more or less superficial in
their introspections, and have failed
to realize just how much their own
lack of real active push has added to
the load of hopelessness which has
hampered business recovery. The
following fram a New York theatre
programme seems very much to the
point in connection with business as
it is:
Business has gone to sleep because
Mr., Business Man hasn't made
enough noise to keep it awake.
Bunk! you say-how can you sell
to people who have no money? No
money! what a mistaken idea some
people have,
On Saturday, July 2, there were
10000 men and women in the big
arena in Jersey City who had spent
$1,623,380 for admission to the
Dempsey Carpenter world champion
ship boxing bout. The main event
the big bout lasted ten minutes
and sixteen seconds, and figuring
steamship fares, railroad tickets,
taxi fares, hotel bills and special
trains, it is safe to say $3,000,000
(three millions of dollars) In all
were spent for about ten minutes of
excitement.

Picnic at City Park.

Saturday afternoon some of the
Girl Scouts and their small friends
took basket lunch and spent the
afternoon at the city park. They
all enjoyed the swings and the chute
the ehutes. Some of the would-be
merimaids invaded the new wading
pond and found that green hop
toad had presided them. Some of
the younger ones made houses in the
sand. THE main attraction of the
day was their various baskets Of
eats, which were raided several
times during their stay, and which
lasted until almost dark.
The girls who came were; Marian
Dick, Josephine Horgan, Helen
Bruce, Lorraine Stewart, Evelyn
HlousdL Aloise Temple, Alma Tye,
Helen Latimore, Evelyn Horgan and
Bernice Bruce. The majority of the
scout girls are still out of town.

A Warning to Women.


Women will be interested In the
report of French scientists that the
use of alcoholic drinks and tobacco
has q tendency to promote the
growth OF mustache and beard on
the female face The beauty OF
woman scarcely will be enhanced by
such adornment, wherefore the
warning of the French experts
doubtless will have the effect Of
causing not a few women to ponder
over the drawback of booze and to-
baccO. The natural instinct OF wO-
man is to shun anything that will
detract from her attractiyeness, and
If she can be convinced that aping
men in the use of liquor and tobac-
co actually means handicap, as
explained, she will be inclined to be
more careful in cultivating bad ha-
bits of this character,
With her larger independence ami
the requirement of equal political
rights with men, there is tendency
on the part of the modern woman to
insist on showing man that all bars
TO sex rights and privileges have
been removed, that she can do and
say anything that heretofore has
been regarded as proper only for the
male sex. One phase Of this new
ambition is the notable growth or
the tobacco habit among women,
and corresponding spread Of the
drinking habit, at least where pro-
hibition is no bar Arguments
based on moral grounds might have
little effect in curbing this tendency,
but the warning that such habits
may mean mustache and beard for
addicts scarcely will go unheeded
For no woman aspires 10 the safei
razor habit, which is one Of the pre-
negatives of man that lovely w1-
man does not coyet. And she pro-
badly will prefer to cut out the
cocktails and cigarets rather than
take the risk.
