THE OLD sWIMMIN HOLE

By James Whitcomb Riley.
oh! the old swimmin'- hole! WHARF
the crick so still and deep
Looked like baby-river that was
laying half asleep,
And the gurgle of the worter round
the drift jest below
Sounded like the laugh of something |
we onc't ust to know
Before we could remember anything |
but the eyes
Of the angels lookin' out as we left
Paradise;
But the merry days of Youth is be-
yond our control,
And it's hard to part forever with
the old swimmin' hole.
Oh! the old swimmin' hole! In the
happy days of yore,
When | ust to lean above it on the
old SYCAMORE.
Oh! 1t showed me a face in its warm
sunny tide
That gazed back at me SO gay and
glorified,
1t made me love myself, as l leaped
| to caress
Ny shadder smilin' up at me with
| sich tenderness.
But them days is past and gone, and
| old Times tuck his tell
From the old man come back 20 the
old swimmin' hole.
Oh! the old swimmin'- In the
| long, lazy days
When the hum-drum of school made
I so many run-a-ways.
How pleasant was the journey down
the old dusty lane,
WHARF the tracks of our bare feet
was all printed so plane
You could tell by the dent of the
heel and the sole
They was lots O. fun on hands a
the old swimmin'
:, But the lost joys is pasc. Let YOU
: tears in sorrow roll
Like the rain that ust to dapple VI
the old swimmin'-
Thare the bullrushes growed, and tn
cattails so tall,
And the sunshine and shadder fel
over it all;
| And it mottled the worter wit
II amber and gold .a..
Tel the glad lilies rocked in the rip
II Piles that rolled;
| And the snake-feeder's four gauz
III wings fluttered by
| Like the ghost of daisy droppe
II out of the sky,
| Or a wounded apple-blossom in tn
II breeze's control,
As it cut acrost some orchurd tore
II the old swimmin' hole.
| Oh! the old swimmin' Whe
] last saw the place,
- The scenes was all changed, Like til
change in my face;
The bridge of the railroad no
crosses the spot
WHARF the old divin'-log lays sun
and fergot.
And | stray down the banks whal
the trees ust to be-
But never again will theyr shae
shelter me!
lAnd | wish in my sorrow ] cou
strip to the soul,
And dive off in my grave like tt

Berlin, July 9.
The recent conference of the foreign
Krassine presiding. Is reported to have
borne no fruit owing to the policy pro-
posed by the Soviet Government. Dis
cussion centered upon the Governments
monopoly of foreign trade. Cooperative
societies and private companies sought
freedom from the bureaucracy. but
Krasslne insisted that the Soviet State
must control commerce without monopo-
lizing 1t. He recommended particularly
the organization OF mixed societies in
which foreign capital would accept
Soviet control.
Such combinations may please the
Bolsheviki.' leading German exporter

correspondent, "'but German firms Will
have nothing to do with them. Our
experience shows that they simply offer
INSCRIPTIONS bureaus an easy way 10

Soviet Russia Is attracting trade TO
its own ports instead of shipping by
way OF the Baltic States. Whereas in
May 800 freight cars were loaded daily
at Riga, Windau and Libau for Rus
sia. consignments lately have been fill
ing less than 100 daily. Riga and
Reval report that shipping also has
fallen off two-thirds. Due primarily to
feopening the port of Petrograd. prefer
entail freight rates to Petrograd and
Moscow are taking away business from
the Baltic States. The Soviet purchases
abroad have diminished.
The Moscow Government is convert
Ing its large diplomatic missions at Riga
and Reval into consulates to take charge
OF business affairs. Many officials, in
stead of returning to Moscow. are com
ing to Berlin. which has become the CEN
ter of Russian foreign trade.
The German Government has agreed
to the payment of 100000, 900 marks
gold in kind, which the Ukrainian Soviet
Government demanded as conditional to
the extension of the Rapallo Russo Ger
man treaty to that Government. That
sum represents the amount of grain
bought by Germany in the Ukraine dur
ing the war, but which had not been
paid for.
The account was settled because Ger
many could not afford to lose Ukrainian
trade. The Ukraine raises two-thirds
cf Russia's grain, mines threefourths
of her iron and grows one-nineteenth of
her sugar. Germany desires especially
Ukrainian manganese
The Ukrainian representative here
said that a joint commission would be
named to balance mutual claims, Ger
mans having a score Of something like

PALMER INSISTS u. S.
MUST KEEP PATENTS
Otherwise Country Would Be
at Mercy of Trust.

Speciat Dispatch TO THE NEW YoRK HERALD.
STRoUDsBURG. PA, July 2.-Former
Attorney General Mitchell Palmer to-day
issued the following statement in reply
to President Harding's letter demanding
the return OF the German patents by the
Chemical Foundation:
"It Is a great shame that the war
and its lessons should be so soon for
gotten. If these patents are recovered
from the Chemical Foundation they cam
not be again sold to American citizens,
and the inevitable next step will be a
return to their former German owners.
We will then be back to the old days
where we were at the absolute mercy
of the German dye trust. I doubt II
that Is the kind of return to normalcy
which the American people want.
Before the war Germany controlled
the dye and chemical industry of the
world, with all its by-products in the
line of medicines. explosives and gas.
When the war broke. we were entirely
without dyestuffs and the civilized world
was in imminent danger from the Ger
man scientific knowledge and economic
control OF explosives and gases. Ger
many built UP this control by her sys-
tematic violation OF the spirit OF our
patent laws. She took out American
patents, not Tor the purpose OF develop
ing an American chemical industry, but
to stifle II.
These patents were seized by the
Alien Property Custodian under author
ity OF the Trading With the Enemy
Act. We had no means of determining
their actual money value. There was
no American chemical industry to aid
us in fixing 1t. If we had sold them
to private interests. we might have sold
them far grossly less than their value
and got nothing but a new American
monopoly to take the place of the Ger
man trust SO we conceived the plan
Of conserving them for the general pub
lie benefit and to build great Ameri-
can industry free from the evils OF
monopolistic control"

NIGHT. MARCH 81
COMPLETE TIE UP LOOMS
Call Goes Out to 5000 Locals Follow
Ing Persistent Refusal Of
Operators to heooti-
ate Agreements

acknowledgements of work
by all union coal miners at midnight
March 81 has been ordered by officers
Of the United Mine Workers of Ameri-
ca. the call being the first ever issued
for both bituminous and anthracite
workers to walk out simultaneously.
Six hundred thousand men will be
affected by the orderS Swas estimated,
officially. The suspenele en-. the order
provided. will continue until stoa3Gd
by union officials.
The order. which was sent 10 III.
5000 local unions, directed the miners
to give the operators their fullest CO.
operation in the protection of mine
property and counseled against vio-
lence and violations of the law. In adj
dillon to affecting all union miners in
the United States, the order also d.
rected approximately $3.50 union men
in western Canada TO join In the walk
out, but did not apply to 1900 miners
in Nova Scotia.
Never before in the history OF the
coal industry has a suspension or strike
order called for cessation of work by
all union miners In the United States.
The issuance OF the call came with
the recent strike vote of soft coal min
ers which Is not completely tnbulated,
but 1t was said officially that the work
of the unions board of tellers had pro
crossed to such a point as to show
every field voting overwhelmingly in
favor of a suspension. Indications
were that n~ine-tenths OF the miners ia
vored the walkout.
Operators Blamed.
The suspension order, which said
blame for the walkout In the soft coal
fields rested with the operators fol
refusing to negotiate a new contract
with the union. inc with the failure
to reach a new agreement with the
hard coal operators. was mailed by Of
flee employees at the unions head
quarters here in the absence Of of
f~IcIals. The procedure. however, pre-
vIousiy had been arranged by officials

however, have practically stopped al
operations, leading to the official esti-
mate that almost 100000 men will be
called out OF the mines.
The order was not sent into Nova
Scotia because the miners there were
said to be working under an arrange
ment made some time ago when a con
tract expired.
