OF the 10,780 planes on hand, how
ever, only about 200 are in present
shape for service.
Nearly 5000 planes, including train

Like the wooden ships of the ship

nit the home manufacture of liquor in
states having less drastic regulations
than those of Georgia, but it will have
no legal effect on the status OF prohi-

COLUMBUS, Ga. = That the

changing has not stopped them
from robbing folks is made plain
by their arrest at camp Monday on

some time. This fact was revealed
by the arrest of Willis johnson on
a charge of receiving stolen goods.
Found with 81 gallons of gas, the
negro, it is declared, told the Off

the gas to him. The convicts claim
they left the gas with the negro be-
cause the wagon tank was leaking.

LIGHT, 1000 RUBLES
Demand for Courtesy Shocks
Visitor in Petrograd.
Shows How Different Life Is in Russia
From What It Is Anywhere Else
-PitifuI Scenes in Streets.

Paris.-The scene of this incl
! dent is the Piski in Petrograd, near
the statue of Peter the Great. The time
Is the 10th of May, in the morn
Ing, and the actors are young French
journalist and one of Lenins commu-
nlsts who are to regenerate the world
by the abolition of private property.
The Frenchman has just arrived
after many difficulties. He is anxious
for cigarette and finds that he has
no matches. Then he sees a tall thin
Bolshevik supporting a wall while he
smokes. The Frenchman politely APP
proaches raises his hat and asks for
light. The Bolshevik, with the ut
most economy of effort, extends a
lighted cigarette. The Frenchman is
prOfuse in thanks.
THAT will be 1000 rubles," remarks
the Bolshevik.
after all, 1t was only forty cen
times" says the journalist, Maxine
Baze, in his dispatch to Excelsior, but
for the moment my breath was taken
away by the demand and the amount
of it. Two thousand rubles for the
courtesy Of handing light By that
one can see as well as in any way
how different life is in Russia from
what 1t Is anywhere else"
M. Baze tells the now familiar story
Of deserted, silent streets and of
people emaciated and covered with
sores who furtively stink along the
streets. Most pitiful of all is, he says,
to see women who have guarded from
former days some piece of finery-a
lace scarf Of the Paris fashion Of 1914,
Or dress from which the color has |
ong since faded. They seem to cling
% these things as the last link with
he days that were.
The only real manufacture that is
lone by the townspeople seems to be
hat of agricultural tools, which they
axe and privately barter with the
PEASANTS for small d0fes of flour or
vegetables.
No one, says M. Baze, knows how
nyone else manages to continue liv-
ng, as many factories which were at ;
york last year and supplied their en-
lOyes with food are now closed Even |
he co-operatives are closing for they
ave no more to SELL and it Is this {
act more than anything else which s
as inclined Lenin to the re-establish-
tent of private commerce.

and one naturally looks for this sort
of thing when going to see Western

It is a new idea to create Western
hero of the rough sort who simply
outguesses the bad men, and then
beats them to it with his two good

Ellington, author of the story, has
given to Russell real herman role
