Revolt. Break Out

Revolts Break Out
 Thus it came about that a year ago revolts broke out. Rebellion seethed everywhere. It flared up in Kronstadt because the discontent of the peas antry had spread to the army and to the workers. Things could not go on that way. The Soviet Government realized this in the eleventh hour. It found the courage to confess unqualt fiedly the fiasco of economic commun- ism. It declared the so-called "new economic policy" The courage of this deed and the avenues toward it's ex- ecution were found by none other than Lenin. They were his personal work
 It was the only way out Lenin him self has confessed it. The new eco homie policy, free trade, the opening of new sources of revenue, the removal of the compulsory wheat trade, were to enable the government:
 1. To demand the minimum of wheat from the peasants and
 2. To give the peasant bread for his products.
 Adopt New Policy
 Upon these issues depended the sue cess or failure of the Soviet govern ment, A face-about was made. Much improvement resulted. However, new symptoms of disease and decay ap- peared. Too much had been expected. Russia resembeled country in which pestilence reigned, death stalked through the streets, life and laughter had been silenced; all stores, cafes and restaurants were closed; anyone who engaged In commerce was sen fenced to death-and in such coun- try, upon a sudden command, every thing was expected to rise and revive at a moments notice. Things did rise and revive. But this new life" re- sembled the resurrection of dead giant who with rouged lips staggers through the streets like drunkard. The new life" in Russia produced parasitism and provoked disgust and nausea.

M. D. SAYS CIGARETTES
 DON'T HURT WOMEN

ST. LOUIS, Nov. Ills cigarette smoking threatening the future of the American race and is it developing a menace to motherhood?
 Over in dear ol' London the medi. cal authorities fancy it is. Summed up, the reply of neurologists here amounts to couple of "Blahs!"
 There are just two kinds of wom- en in this country who bother about smoking" according to the version of leading St. Louis specialist. "One is the neurotic, restless, idle married woman, the kind that easily becomes 'fiend,' and the other is the napper who takes a cigarette just to make be- lieve she's a good sport. Neither class is seriously threatening the future of the race. Mexican women have been smoking pretty hard for centuries, and so far as I know that race isn't be- coming extinct.
 Tt isn't matter of health or mor- als. I'd call it just question of taste. Let the social improvement bugs go after it as vice if they are so inclined, but for Heavens sake, don't associate such nonsense with the sacred name of science!
 Vigorous, healthy women who are doing the worlds work and bearing children, as they should, aren't bother ing about smoking

A NelU Series on
 the Souiet Regime By Geogres PopoH

1 lation starved, suffered and went in rags, and while another part bore these hardships heroically in the hope that this tortuous way through revolu- tion and misery might lead to a dis tant but lofty attainment, a small band of crooks, adventurers and all sorts of dubious clements began to make hay while the sun shone. They launched upon orgies of speculation and revel- ries and ruled the street. This development reused the scorn and hatred not only of wide masses of the population, but 'also of a great number of the members of the Com munist Party who dared register loud protest against it. This was the gen esis of the so-called Opposition" :" These people condemned the new eco homie policy. They did so, not be- cause they were distressed by the fiasco of Communism, but rather be- cause of the excesses of the "new course"
 The opposition" consisted of 22 of the ablest members of the Commun- istic party. They were all idealists, men devoted to their cause, who had lived for year in exile in Switzerland and had belonged to the party for 20 years or more.
 "Workmen's Opposition"
 These 22 men were also called the "Workmen's Opposition" Among them were Medwedieff, Schliapnikoff, Lomoff, Larin, Manuliski, Kassior, Stoukoff, Miliutin, Losovski. Prebra- shenski. Antonoff, Ovsejenko, Kolon- tain, Skrypnik.
 Trotzky had never placed himself at the head of this opposition. How ever, since he did not take an out right dissenting attitude toward it, his name was-perhaps not without req son-mentioned in connection with the Opposition of the 22."
 What did these revolutionaries un- dertake against the revolution? Nothing-or at least as good as noth- ing. It might have been expected that (after the example of the French rev olution) the Communistic party would, as a result of dissention regarding the most important political question, be split into two hostile camps -Gironde and Berg? But by no means! Only people who do not understand the na- ture, of Bolshevism could harbor such expectations.
 The Soviet power is not regime of personalities.
 It is the rule of a system, a party, a caste, an idea!

FORD RETAIL SALES 60 OVER
MILLION CARS AND TRUCKS

parison Of production figures for the
past two years shows that Ford en-
closed cars are gaining in popularity,
as 23 per cent OF tho 1921 production
were Sedans and Coupes as against a
total Of IS per cent for the year pre-
vious.
Recent reductions In Ford car and
truck prices brought them to new
level. Tho Touring car now sells for
Ss4s, the Runabout for 1919, the Coupe
for $3.50, the Sedan for $64o, the
Chassis for $2s5, and the truck for
s420, all F. 0. r. Detroit.
This ia the fourth price cut in the
past 16 months. During that time the
price of the touring car alone has been
cut from s575 to $3+s, a reduction of
40 per cent. Reductions on some OF the
other types have been even greater.
The Ford Company believes that this
reduction, while not large one, is
especially important at this time as 1t
should go a long way toward stabiliz-
ing market conditions
Ford is giving employment at pres
ent to approximately 10000 mon in his
main plant at Detroit, the Importance
of which is emphasized when consid-
Grafton is given to the fact that nearly
20 per cent OF the city's population
is directly dependent upon the Ford

DETROIT. Mich. Jan. 25.-Retail
sales of Ford cars, trucks and Ford
son tractors have again exceeded the
million mark for the year 1921. ac-
cording to a statement given out to-
day by the Ford Motor company.
The Ford factory and assembly plant
production figures reached total of
1880, 740 cars, trucks and tractors for
the year, with retail sales by dealers
approximating 1.093o00 which In the
United States alone surpassed the 1920
retail sales record by 104.2l3 Ford cars
and trucks.
The Ford Company says the outlook
for 1922 is decidedly optimistic. In
fact, concrete evidence already exist
in that car and truck retail sales for
December, 1921, exceeded December.
1920 sales by almost 25 per cent, and
Fordson tractor retail sales for the
same periods show an increase of over
100 per cent for December, 1921. as
we'll as an increase over the total
tractor sales for the month of Novem-
ber,
These facts seem to indicate that not
only are the farmers buying more
freely. but that the general public is
becoming more responsive and rccep-
tive.

WITNESSES ADD
LITTLE LIGHT
None of Is Are Able to Pre-
sent Direct Testimony
Of Hanging

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 25.-
None OF the sixteen or more witnesses
appearing today before a senate In
ting committee was able to
present direct testimony relating to
charges that American soldiers had
been handged without trial in France.
Henry GENTRY a negro of Lawrence,
Kansas, who severd in the regular
army prior to the war declared he saw
negro officer Major George II. Phil
lips Of East Orange. n. j., shoot Will
liam Patterson a negro private. but
he could not say positively whether
the soldier died or whether Phillips
was tried by court martial.
The shooting. he said, followed the
soldiers refusal to help an army cook
slice bread.
Three medical officers attached to
base hospital No. ., near Chateau
Roux, testified there was no truth in
charges by former service men that
the bodies of nine men, killed by the
military police had been sent to the
hospital. Then half a dozen former
soldiers declared only two men were
hanged at Is-Sur-Tille, the number
listed on the war departments hang
ing report. Previous testimony was
that about dozen" soldiers had been
put to death there.
