Numerous articles that are now ap-
pearing in reputable American news
pers and magazines are impressing the
conclusion that there has been q great
deal of MISREPRESENTATION of conditions
in Russia. There is no question of the
fact that the country has passed
through a nightmare of horror, dark
ened by political executions without
number; that famine and want have
stalked through the land and that the
elements which were in opposition to
the new regime Jared horribly. That
is all true. But now order is coming
out of chaos. The former ruling class
has either left the country or submit
ted, and the economic ideas Of Lenine
and Trotsky are being accepted, with
the result that life and property have
become secure and prosperity is being
established on the new basis. To
be sure the element that formerly ruled
the country has not yet become recon-
ciled to the new order. 1t is hopeful,
even confident, that it will again come
back to it's old estate; but that is a
matter for the future. In the mean
time, however, it is well to keep in
mind the fact that Russia is still one
Of the leading powers of the world,
and there is no telling to what she may
attain, or what influence she may yet
exercise on the established social, eco
nomic and political conditions of other
nations.

President Harding will come in for

the bonus bill; but not as much abuse
rs he would have eventually come into

Looking at it from q purely mate

ALONG THE WAY

Senator John II. Hart said yesterday
that he had written to the members of
the York county legislative delegation
proposing q conference to consider the
advisability of giving a relief through
tax exemptions to those farmers Of
Western York county who suffered loss
of big percentage Of their crops
through haH several weeks ago. If the
matter meets with favor at the hands
of the four members of the delegation
a meeting on the matter will be held
very shortly. a number of farmers in
the devastated area lost practically
their entire cotton crop by hail and
arc in bad way financially, it is said.

the luscious grapes that grow there;
but really to scare the youngster and
have a race back to town out of him is
still popular. On last Monday even
ing one of the young men OF the town
announced his perfect willingness to go
after grapes and he did so ac-
companied by number of other young
men who were wise to the fun. No
sooner had he begun to gather the
fruit than such a volley of gun shots
filed the air around him that he began
to imagine that the army OF Mustapha
Kemal or some other army was close

for home and it is said that he came
under the rubber ahead of several high
powered automobiles whose occupants
had gone out to watch the race.

Where the Corn Grows Tall.

Mr.. S. Z. Atkins of York No. G,
brought to The Yorkville Enquirer Of
flee Wednesday, two stalks of tall corn,
the tallest measuring 16 feet inches
from roots to tassle. Each stalk car
ried two ears, fully developed in the
case Of one, and but one properly de-
veloped in the case of the other. Mr.
Atkins explained that the corn was
grown on first-year new ground; but
he could not account for the unusual
height Of it, which he says, exceeds
anything he has ever seen.

over the crop prospect, according to
John f. Smith, a well known farmer OF

had decided to leave 1t with the land
lords, assuring the latter that they
were welcome TO it if they would
gather it.

Investigating Liquor Stories.

On the Strength OF an anonymous
letter which purported to give detailed
information, Governor Harvey recent
ly sent a prohibition officer to York
county to investigate the use of whis-
KY in the recent second primary. As
The Enquirer understands, the letter
specified tho individual who was to
use the liquor and the particular box
in Rock Hill at which it was to be
used. The matter was looked into
carefully; but the alleged information
was not confirmed. 1t has also come
to the knowledge Of The Enquirer that
was not confirmed.

BRIDGEPORT WILL BE ADVANCED T0
 CLASS c BY FIRE UNDERV WRITER'S
One Of The Most Modern Fire Departments Main tained Here-Hartford Probably Only City In State To Reach Class B This Year-Manual Fire Signal Highly Developed Here.

Although the Bridgeport Fire De- partment is one of the most efficient and up-to-the-minute fire fighting or ganizations in New England, it is not likely that this city will be advanced into a higher classification by the National Board of FifN Underwriters. Bridgeport is now rated in Class c, or third class and cannot be advanced to a better rating until a number of suggestions offered by the underwrit- CTS have been carried out.
 Hartford is probably the only city in Connecticut which will be put into the second class this year. Official announcement of this change has not yet been made, but it is understood that the move has been approved by the New England Insurance Elk change Points in deficiency have been eliminated by the Capitol City, and it will soon be ranked with four Massachusetts cities in fire protection. No city in the United States is rank ed first class, according to Chief Daniel T. Johnson, of the local de- One of the greatest factors in the success of the Bridgeport Fire De- partment, is the development of the manual fire signal system to the highest point of efficiency This sys- lem has been adopted by most of the larger cities of the country, but mo- where is the service better maintain ed than in Bridgeport.

system similar to Bridgeports. Un- til last year, Kansas City's Fire De- partment operated under the multi ple-jack system which consists prin- cipa1ly of a series of telephones con- meeting all fire houses. When a blaze is discovered, the alarm is telephoned to fire headquarters and then relayed to the district houses.
 Despite the rather unusual fire sig nal system, Kansas City always ranked high in fire protection. Un- der Chief Hale, who headed the Kan sas City department about years ago. crack company established a world wide reputation Of being able to harness it's horses and get away from the fire house in two and one half seconds. This company trav- e1led around the country giving exh1- bitions. and then went to England, appearing in London and other large cities After seeing the harnessing exhibition, London fremen are said to have exclaimed
 Those fellows aren't fremen, they are cincus performersi'
 The carrying of tarpas1Hns on fire trucks is another factor which serves to keep down fire losses in Bridge port. These canvas coverings are laid over goods and stock at all fires and serve to prevent loss by water which would otherwise be suffered. In larger cities such as New York and Philadelphia special tarpau1in com pa nies are maintained by underwrit- CTS, and go out on all alarms with the regular companies.

WASHINGTON-Gainful employ

port entitled, Children of Wage

conditions found include retarded

children who had the responsibility
for household tasks beyond Their

Germans Turn to
Waste for Clothes
Cotton Goods Made
Largely from Many
Scraps.

WASHINGTON-Ten per cent to
fifteen per cent of all cloth now man
ufactured in Germany is made of cot
ton waste, says Acting Commercial
Attache Breed, in report to the De-
partment of Commerce.
All sorts of cotton waste materials
are consumed by the mills, but linters,
sweepings, rags, lap ends, clippings,
silver, and bobbin waste are most
common. The principal products
made from these wastes are light
weight, coarse textiles which are
largely consumed domestically by the
peasant classes or exported to for
eign countries with very low foreign
exchange rates. Other uses of cot
ton waste in Germany are the manu-
facture of cheap blankets, felt, clean
ing rags, and machinery waste, and a
rather large quantity is consumed by
paper manufacturers in making paper
roofing.

arly his earnings were, in the great
majority of cases, inadequate for the
family support.
The report emphasizes the skill in
planning and management shown by
many of the women in carrying the
triple burden of wage-earner, house
keeper, and mother, and states that a
large proportion were doing their
homework without assistance. More
than half of $50 mothers whose house
hold arrangements were known were
doing all the washing and cooking
the mothers in general showed q
tendency to sacrifice themselves in or.
der to save the children from tasks
too heavy for their years. Measure:
for reducing the necessity for wage
earning by mothers of young children
are treated in the report.
