This is the speech which led to reports

Referring to the question of world rev.

as fast as we should like it, but it Is
coming nevertheless and gathering
strength. OF course, the world revolution
has made a great step forward, In COM
parison with last year. OF course the
communist international which last year
existed merely in the form of proclama-
tons. is now existing as an Independent
party in every country In Germany,
France and Italy the communist interna-
tional has become not only the center OF
the labor movement, but the focus Of at
tention for the whole political life OF
those countries. This Is our conquest,
and no one can deprive us Of 1t. The
world revolution is growing stronger,
while the economic crisis in Europe is
getting worse at the same time.
But, at any rate, we're We to draw
from this the conclusion that help woul1

rather savage kind.
Then the latest jazz was banged INTO

ARCHDUkE NOW DOING
STUNTS IN A GERMAN
CABARET FOR LlVlNGI


Berlin. May 14-The former Archduke
Leopold Ferdinand of Austria, who Is
now appearing nightly as a performer IN
a Berlin cabaret, was prevented by tne
Berlin police from wearing an admiral 8
uniform and Is compelled to wear the
clothing of private soldier
Like many other members OF once pow
erful royal families, who were I'M
horsed and bankrupted by the war, he
was forced to work for a living, his total
income from his Austrian properties now
amounting to only 5000 kronen, or about
81, monthly
So when he appeared for a job as
cabaret entertainer a sketch was written
SO that he could play the part OF
prince who has fallen from high estate.
The Berlin public, accustomed since the
war to former royal personages in ao-
ject financial circumstances, still was
not habituated to seeing an archduke on
the boards. The first-night audience
heard the archduke through without ap-
plause. Then, in the painful, empar-
raised silence a man rose by his table
and loudly clapped his hands. 1t was a
former German grandduke, who also IS
working for his daily sustenance. From
one table came a low kissing at THIS
proclamation of majesty
The former archduke appears under the
name of Leopold Wolflings, pseudonym
which he has also used in number OF
articles he has written for newspapers.

Society Editors Phone.

This department has long suffered
the inconvenience of lack of tele-
phone for the use of the editor in
charge. "No switchboard room for
another wire," and impossible to get
cable and equipment with which to
make extensions" offered obstacles
in the way of securing the conven-
fence of wire communication with
those who might be disposed to ten
der news items at opportune mo-
ments, seemingly insurmountable. The
extraordinary results effected by dint
of sheer industry and perseverance
have led many distinguished men to
doubt whether the gift of genius be
so exceptional an endowment as it is
usually supposed to be. Certainly
genius had little to do in the accom-
plishment of providing a telephone
for the use of this department. Per-
severance and patience did it.
The telephone number for this de-
partment is 367-J, party line, per-
petuating that trite bit of philosophy
about the whole loaf or any portion
thereof. The editor in charge can be
reached at any hour of the day, or
evening, over this line.
