Flattery and Smokes

Favor of Soviets

Observation-Disclosures of The

the Russian way.
Time has no value, but patience. flat
terry and a few cigarettes will accOmp-
fish wonders. Foreigners have learned
that q Russian never gets around to
a business proposition until he has
first fatty declined to have anything
to do with it. After he has spent an
hour or two explaining why he cannot
agree. he win suddenly say, Very
well, I'll do it."
This is particularly true of soviet
officials charged with issuing the
stamped documents. without which a
foreigner can hardly move. These Off
Gals find the most unreasonable ex-
Cuses for not issuing documents, but
If they are allowed to talk themselves
out. then given a cigarette and a few
words about soviet efficiency. the per-
NIT usually is forthcoming.
Frequently. after getting a permit
to do some certain thing, the official
to whom it is directed will not recog-
nize it. Traders doing business in south
Russia and Con%stantinopIe often pre-
sent their guarantees to soviet officials
in these places only to learn that they
cannot be recognized. However, n
little flattery and a few cigarettes will
usually bring a concession. often more
liberal than is called for in the orig
lnal permit.

MARS TOO POPULAR
IS A DEAD WORLD
SCIENTIST AYERS
Thinks We May Know All
About Venus in About a
Billion Years.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of The
Associated Press)--The planet Mars
an old dying world is receiving al
together too much attention from earth
ly scientists these days and nights,
while the up-and-coming young planet
Venus is just waiting for a chance TO
know us better.
This is the conclusion of Professor
Svante Arrhenius, Nobel prize winner
and one of Europe's foremost scientists
and astronomers, who lectured here IN
the prospect of wheedling from the
heavens the secrets of some of our
celestial ~neighbors, and especially Mars.
when that planet swings into closest
proximity to the earth two years hence.
No Canals" There
If scientists and long distance radio
fans really want to communicate with
some celestial n%eighbor. Professor Arr
henius said. they will not find Mars
very cordial, for the old fellow-dying
or already dead-is covered with hard.
frozen sand and is so dry that its only
rain is meteoric dust. Perhaps a few
sea weeds still exist. he said. but it
is highly improbable that even low ami
NAL life could find enough to sustain if.
He described as fantastic the belief
that so-called canals observed on the
planet were the WOrk OF engineers ana
attributed them to earthquake assures.
Venus, on the other hand, offers po-
tential possibilities to the patient as
tronomer. Professor Arrhenius de
clared. BY patient he meant about
a billion years. he explained. At the
expiration of this period, he thought a
flourishing colony Of intelligent beings
might be discovered on the bright little
planet.
Lots of Water
Everything on Venus is dripping
wet" he continued. The planet is
covered by constant rain-clOuds 10 Kill
ometers thick. preventing any rays from
the sun penetrating to the bottom of
the air-strata. Life on the planet of
love is short and intense"
Living organisms, he thought. might
be found at the polar regions where the
temperature was slightly lower than
other parts of the planet.
When the earth is extinguished," he
concluded, 1T viii be Venus, queen of
the heavens, that will take Over the
role as carrier of culture"

VICAR BLAMES DIVORCE
 EVIL ON IDLE RICH

London. Dec. 16 - It is not the ''poor workingman' who wants di- vorce made easier, but the "crowd of over-dressed. over-fed, ana unuer- worked mer znd women who have too much time on their hands and not enough honest employment to keep them morally clean" in the opinion of an irate Bristol vicar who aired his views in a recent letter to the Sunday Express.
 The vicar protested strongly against making divorce easier, con tending that the reform should come in the period before marriage when the choice is made" Once a choice has been made and vows taken, the minister contends, the contracting parties should not ''squeal.''
 Those who w0'Gld make It easier 10 sever the bonds of matrimonv. the vicar asserts, are reverting to "the morals of the farmyard and the man nars of the monkey"
