Alexis Wiren. of the international to members of the Hi-Y club last evening about the future relations be- tween Russia and the United States Mir. Wren is Russian, having been in this country only four years. How ever he speaks very good English and he furnished a wealth of infor- mation concerning conditions in his country.
 He said that in order to have re- lations with another person you must be well acquainted with that person. It is the same way with countries. Russia knows very little about the United States and the people here know little of that large foreign country. MT. Wiren's impression of American people was that they al- ways chew gum, love the movies above every thing else and that they have a fondness for ice cream.
 Russia is about seven times as large as the United States, yet 1t took only two or three years for it to be destroyed. Now, to show con- ditions there, it costs ten thousand ruples, normally about five thous- and dollars to send letter from Rus sia to America" The economic sit uation is very desperate because the people are not doing anything, they are living on what they have been able to save up from other times.

ELL|NGER AGAIN
 IN THE L|MEL|GHT
Police Sergeant and Subordinate
 Engage in Argument

That things are not right as yet in the local police department, is borne out in an occurrence last night at the station house. For several weeks, stories have been prevalent that fric- tion exists between many of the pa - trolmen, and Sergeant George C. El- finger. The latest episode transpired early last night before the men had left their room upstairs in the police station, between the sergeant and Patrolman Michael Massey, one of the most efficient members of the force.
 Just what was the real cause of the jam" last night has not been called to the attention of the head of the department. It has been the custom in the past that the men have been called to attention by the sounding of a bell and were then subjected to an inspection by the street sergeants It is said that Patrolman Massey did not satisfy Sergeant Ellinger in the manner in which he put pep" into his response last night and the argu- ment then onsued.
 Rawlings in the Dark
 Chief Rawlings was asked today re- garding the affair, and he stated that no official report of the episode had been called to his attention. Just why such an affair should not be reported is matter of conjecture. Patrolman Edward Kieley, when he lined up be- fore the desk downstairs last night, politely tried to ascertain just what the sounding of the bell in the pa trolmen's room meant. His answer from the man ill charge brought no satisfaction.
 Public Getting Wise.
 It would not be surprising if in the near future Something broke" in the police department. The recent announcement that the police com mission had contained in the budget for next year sum for the appoint ment of six additional patrolmen has caused some of the taxpayers to turn attention to the police department. For the first time in the history of the department, there are four men in the detective bureau. It is argued that despite the tendency on part of some to violate the liquor laws there is no good reason for the taking of three men off night duty and fix them up with soft day jobs. It is argued that the enforcement of the law should be put right up to the patrolman on every beat and the con duct of those on the beat would be placed directly at the door of the pa trolman.

THE NEW GLOVES AND HANDBAGS
Accessories That Match Is One OF the
Latest Fashions; Silk and
Leather Used.

The shops show most interesting
changes in gloves. Real innovations,
not just a different cut or a different
stitching.
For one thing, there are gloves and
handbags to match. They are made Of
silk and leather, so far as the bags go,
and of leather with fancy stichery, and
sometimes silk faclngs, so far as the
gloves go.
For instance, there is one set. The
bag is of black suede with red en-
broidery, set in carved ivory frame
The gloves are of black dressed kid,
with deep gauntlet cuffs, lined with
red kid-this and the embroidery are
In sort of henna shade.
And there Is another set consisting
of bag Of gray watered silk embroid-
cred with black. The gloves of black
show gray silk facings in the cuffs and
gray stitchery.

THE CoLoRS ARE DISCREET
Black Has Not Been Abandoned; Some
Combine II With Brown or
Gray; Many Greens.

Colors are discreet for street wear.
Black has not been abandoned, for
some designers are still using great
deal of 1t, while others compromise by
combining 1t with color, more often
brown or gray than the bright shades.
The browns, In the whole range from
deepest seal to putty, are in the lead.
There are green's In almost all collec-
tions, from deep myrtle to almond.
One designer fancies clear forest green
for her Russian tailleurs. There are
a good many grays. more often smoke
shades than the pale tones.
Many gowns have rich reds In trim
ming notes. and the rust of mahogany
reds are strong. Doucet has given IN
his favorite combination of gray and
yellow for new one Of smoked gray
and mahogany. All this applies to
daytime wear. In the evening we have
a riot Of bright shades, with a great
deal Of white, and more silver than
gold. Here and there Is note Of rich
purple. Royal blue is used by some,
frequently combined with black.

WONDERFUL PIECE OF WORK

Gently asked to measure what Is
probably the smallest piece OF engrav.
ing on glass in the world. The en-
craving consists of the Lords Prayer
(57-word verslon) engraved on glass
In a space Of .O01 by .0O2 of an inch.
The writing can only be seen under
high-power microscope, the mangih-
cation required being from 900 to 1000
times. The measurements by which
the above dimensions were determined
were carried out in the laboratories Of
the bureau.
The extremely small size of this en-
craving will be realized when It is
considered that If a square inch were
entirely filed with writing of this size
the entire Bible could be written %
times in that space-ln other words,
something more than 200000OO words
could be written In a square inch.

Says Liberian Loan Really a Loan
70 cannlbals and Effort to Annex
Negro Votes IN U. s.--"A
Piece OF Graft"

Washington.-The Senate has Just
adopted a resolution to recommit the
resolution authorizing $4,000, 900
loan to Liberia. democrats and pro-
gressive republicans uniting to defeat
the administration forces in the first
major legislative contest Of the extra
session.
The motion to recommit the reso.
luton TO the finance committee with.
out instructions, which was offered
by Senator Simmons, democrat, of
North Carolina, was adopted, AZ to 33.
Republicans who voted with the dem
ocrats were: Cameron, Capper, Fer,
nald. IIarreld, Jones, Ladd, LaFol
lette, McNary, Nicholson, Norris.
Poindexter, Sutherland and Watson.
Senator Reed, democrat, Missouri,
returning to the Senate, attacked the
loan proposal as "a piece of graft"
behind which, he said, was desire
to aid the international bankers hold,
ing Liberian notes and an endeavor
to obtain negro votes "by indirect &C,
tion." He pictured Liberia as a land
Of cannibals, and said he doubted
whether the Liberian government
had any security to offer for the loan
"other Than the heads of our mis-.
sionaries."
The vote was generally interpreted
as killing the resolution, which was
advocated by the state department
and was passed by the House last
May. Attached to the measure as
an amendment was a provision au,
thorizing an appropriation Of $20,000,,
900 for reclamation work in the west

and report back the reclamation and
