MT. Gompers, remarking on the "misinformation" spread by the sen ators, suggested in letter to the sec retary of state that some purpose might be served and democracy could be given clearly to understand that the backbone of the whole situation regarding Russia Is the denial to the people of Russia of any opportunity to pass judgment on their own af- fairs or to say by whom or in what manner they shall be governed If those standing for the American con cept of right and justice and democ- racy could be given to understanding the backbone of the whole situation regarding Russia"
 In response to MT Gompers' letter MT Hughes wrote:
 "I have your letter of the ninth instant with respect to the grounds upon which the recognition of the present regime in Russia has been withheld.
 "You refer with just empsasis to the tyrannical exercise of power by this regime The seizure of control by a minority in Russia came as a grievous disappointment to Ameri- can democratic thought which had enthusiastically acclaimed the end of the despotism of the czars and the entrance of free Russia into the family of democratic nations.
 Subsequent events were even more disturbing. The right of free speech and other civil liberties were denied. Even the advocacy of those rights which are usually considered to con stitute the foundation of freedom was declared to be counter revolutionary and punishable by death. Every form of political opposition was ruthlessly exterminated
 There followed the deliberate de- struction of the economic life of the country. Attacks were made not only upon property in it's so-called capi- talistic form, but recourse was held also to the requisitioning of labor. All voluntary organizations of workers were brought to an end. To union ize or strike was followed by the severest penalties.

CRUSADE BY THE DRYS

Those who were responsible for
the Eighteenth Amendment are now
called upon to have and to hold
what they then gained. They are
aWaking to the contest. The W. c..
I |. are arranging for a national
campaign. The Federal Council of
Churches of Christ has called con-
ference to meet in Washington this
month to launch a national campaign
for prohibition and to offset the ef-
forts being made by the "wcts."
1t is high time this was done The
other side, in one sense, began to
fight when the Amendment was
adopted. No scheme known to the
arts of political intrigue has been
overlooked. no effort spared by the
opposition, whereas the "drys," con-
templating their achievement with
satisfaction seemed unmindful of
what is going on.
President Harding shortly before
his death sounded a warning and
called for mobilization of the pro-
hibition forces. President Coolidge
has assumed the attitude that his
duty lies in doing the work awaiting
his doing instead of giving his time
to making addresses at public gath
erings. He viii make an exception,
however, in the case of this WASH
ington conference on prohibition,
saying:
IF there's any convention to be
held this year that ought to have an
exception. it is this one. | will make
an exception in this case and ar
range to meet all the members in the
east room of the White House"
This decision does him credit. yet
it was but fair TO suppose he would
do lust that.

next minute, the draWbridge opened
for them to cross over.
"Our master, the King is very
kind man." whispered the little rab-
bit with the gold whistle "but you
mustn't forget to bow every time he
talks to you"
And the little rabbit who carried
the4lag whispered: our master, the
King is very kind man, but you
mustn't forget to whistle once in Il
while"
"I'll remember" promised Little
Jack Rabbit just as the castle gates
were opened by a large white bunny
with a very pink nose.
Hes the King" whispered both
little rabbits under their breath
Pray tell me who is your COM
rade in boots?" asked the great
white bunny with a low bow.

swcred.
When the great big immense white
bunny heard that, he bowed still
lower and said "Welcome'" Then
he led them through the courtyard
and up the marble steps to the
beautiful castle. The next minute
Little Jack Rabbit found himself
standing before the rabbit kings
throne. Oh me and oh my. 1t was
a beautiful throne carved from pink
coral to match the pink nose of the
white rabbit king.
"Nelcome," he said again, max
ing room for Little Jack Rabbit on
the beautiful throne and you can
well imagine Little Jack Rabbit was
greatly pleased, for ] guess this was
the first time he had ever sat upon
a throne.
"Tell me something Of your coun-
try" said the rabbit king.
SO Little Jack Rabbit told him all
about Lady Love. his pretty little
bunny mother and Uncle Lucky. ms

pened after ti.1t.
