RUSSIAN FEMINIST SAYS WOMEN NOT BEING GIVEN
 VOICE IN GOVERN WIEN I
Rr Assncinted prrss

Moscow, March 4-Madame Alexan- fa Kolanty, one of the leaders of sre Russian feminist movement. harges. in an article she has writ zen in the Pravda. that petty bour- gooisie narrowness and superstition are preventing women having the voice they merit in the Soviet gov- srnment
 She says that no woman was a totug delegate at the Communist conference preceding the Ninth AL 4}ussian Soviet congress held here sad that only 24 women were in oluded among the 2000 voters at he congress. despite the fact that 50 per cent of Russian voters are women.
 She alleges that women are very active in politics but less than three per cent of the membership of town Soviets is represented by women, and in the village Soviets they have only two-tenths of one per cent of the membership.
 Furthermore, she states there are only five women members in the Central Executive committee of Boo which is Russias chief governiug body.
 Madame KoIlanty declares that such discrimination against women greatly retards the reestablishment of agriculture in which peasant wom- en play an important part.

 New York, March Art with a | capital "A" is holding the center Of the limelight these days. It is art ! Of all Kinds, from the sort which crowds a collectors gallery to the sort which crowds the rogues' gall lery. And it's all frst-class of it's kind.
 When business men forego impor- tant appointments and shop workers forget their lunch, and women of leisure pass up an afternoon of bridge for the sake of standing be- witched in front of an oil painting. t would seem as if this were a good time to stop calling New Workers crude and money mad. Gainsbor- ough's Blue Boy has drawn ad- mirrors by the thousands since first this engaging youth went on exhibi- tion a few days since. Incidentally, from the admission fees, the Fifth Avenue hospital has drawn dollars by the thousands likewise.
 In the few months since Henry D. Huntington of New York paid rec ord price of s750,000 for this picture the canvas has been repeatedly washed till the many superfluous coats of varnish are gone. Today the best portrait in the world" fair ly leaps from it's frame in that en- chanting blue which first made it immortal. Not for generations has the original shade of blue been wis ible. but now the portrait is as su perbly fresh as when Gainsborough with a sigh of content laid down his brush.
 The Cubist Colony
 And IJnuY the cubist colony is. over this prote- tariat homage to Gainsborough's amusing little daub. When you look at the Blue Boy" you actually know at glance what it's all about. Why pay admission when for half the money you could stand an entire day before "class" and "gazinkus" with out the slightest notion as to what, why or whom?
 Another form of art, somewhat more in the futurist style, has been on view around Wall street. The bGcketshop artists have come in for 4 generous amount of publicity, par tieularly of the show type which leads to the show down. Among the many examples of brilliant work it Is difficult to single out any for spe- cial mention. But it is worthy of note that New Workers with their in nate love of the artistic, have spent several million dollars to support members of this rather widely known "con" school. Every bucketshop has a whole corridor full of blue boys just now. the shade of blue being ex- traordinarily sharp and deep. The precocity of the artist is not the least of their attractions; several of the bucketeers. who think little or nothing of sums ranging from $780, 900 to s500,00o, are under 2f years old An. youth must be served, and the detectives are saying it with warrants.

STRONG CAPITAL NOW INTERESTED
 IN COAL FIELDS
Pocahontas Interests Said to Be Active in Company
 to Investigate.

The Lake Export Corporation, re- por' ed in yer.ordayis press dis patches to be planning an investiga- 'ton of the Eaka and Chfckaloon coal mines, it is learned from reliable sources, is owned by the interests controlling the Pccahontas corpora tion which operates fields in Penn sylvania, West Virginia and Virginia. It is also learned that a second cor rcratrion representing large capital is considering an investigation of the same field
 Press dispatches received by The Empire yesterday said that George ". Evans, prominent coal mining ex- pert, had been asked by the Lake Exrort ComfDany to investigate and report on the Eska and Chickaloon fields. The mines at Eska have been operated for several years under Su- perirT endent Sumner Smith by the Alaskan Engineering Commission. The Chickaloon mines were first un der the same organization. but in 1920 were transferred to the Navy Department and investigations have been carried on there by the Alaska Navy Coal Commission under Com mauder A. c. Bowling. the actual work being under the direction of MT. Smith. A few weeks ago the Navy Department turned the mines back to the Department of Interior which, it is understood, is now mak' ing an effort to lease to some big comrany or companies which will guarantee extensive explorations and operations.
