| Shows How
 l The Tyranny lOf Love Brings
 Unhappiness

do not consider that they RwL their children bodily, and do not regard their children as slaves who must work to support them, but there are very few fathers and mothers who do not feel that they own their children's souls.
 They honestly believe that they have the right to decide their ch'l- dren's lives for them. Nine times out of ten, when you hear parents speak of their children having been a great disappointment to them, or Of their children having given them a great deal of trouble, or of tlnir children being ungrateful, 1t merely means that the children nave h. sisted on doing the things they wanted them to do.
 A mother who Is fond of society, for instance. considers that she has right to make her daughter go to parties instead of to college, as the girl wants to do. An ambitious mother considers herself extremely ill-used if she cannot induce her daughter to marry rich suitor in- stead of the poor man she happens to love.
 How many men we know of are failures because their fathers fore d  nature made them lawyers or doctors, or who are unsuccessful lawyers or doctors, when they were designed for trade or mechanics.
 Yet these fathers love their sons. they desire them to prosper and be happy. but they feel that their af- lection makes their boys their prop erty, and gives them the right to do with them as they please and dispose of them as they see fit.
 It is because parents feel that their children belong to them. and that they have no right to live their own lives in their own way. that young people become anxious to get away from home, because that is the only way they can break their shackles. For no son and daughter, as loEg as they live at home, ever have one single moment of freedom, or one vestige of personal liberty, even If they are 60 years old.

It is this tyranny of love, against which we are so helpless, that kills love; that drives husbands and wives to the divorce court; that alienates friends; that makes children leave home, and that is the curse of do- mesticity.

BR0OKHART, BACK IN UNITED STATES,
 PRAISES SOV|ETS
Iowa Senator Declares Rus Sia Ranks Next To
 America

NEW YORK, July 17.-"The soviet government is second only to that of the United States and Russia soon will be making inroads upon the grain market of America"
 This was the word brought back from Europe by Senator Smith w.. A. Brookhart. of Iowa, who came to New York today from Boston, where he disembarked from the steamship President Polk. Senator Brookhart has just made an exhaustive study of agricultural, social and political conditions abroad.
 "The thing that demands imme- diate attention in an extra session of Congress in the agricultural situa- tion," said the senator. "A good crop is growing all over Europe. The Russian peasants have a good crop and likely a large surplus.
 Praises Lenine.
 Russia today has the most stable government in the world next to the United States" continued Senator Brookhart. "Lenine is the man of the hour there and Is the one great bulwark of the peasant class.
 'Lenine's present condition Is Sm- liar to that of President Wilson, breakdown brought about by over work"
 Senator Brookhart commenting on the political situation stated that the election of Senator Magnus Johnson of Minnesota was a warning to the republican bosses that something was going to happen"
 Senator Brookhart said he had read President Hardings first three speeches while on his trip.
 "I should think that about three more speeches like these would elect Henry Ford by about ten million majority if the President Is the can didate," said the senator.
