FREAR, HEARST ENVOY

"Slipp'ry" Jim's a-jauntin' agin!
Next Tuesday he starts from Berlin
on trip de lux, in private car an
everything, for tour through Soviet
Russia, as guest and reporter for the
Hearst newspapers. For several
weeks past Jim has been on a
"junker" trip through southern
Europe, and has helped save America
by penning some thrilling tales OF his
close association with prominent
Europeans, interloping a few neat
descriptive phrases in between the
main theme of ''me and the Prime
Minister" And now the willy James
is embarked on joy-trip into Russia.
Hearst is for Soviet rule and its
promotion in America. To make
deeper impression and attract more
attention to this idea it is planned to
have published in the Hearst papers
a series of articles signed by men
whose official titles should command
respectful attention from the Ameri-
can public.
Sen. King, Utah; Sen. Ladd, North
Dakota, and Con. Frear, Wisconsin,
are the ones chosen and labeled by
Hearst as an unofficial congress
sional commission" to go reporting
through Russia for the Hearst papers.
Hearst has engaged private car, IS
paying every expense, and has made
provisions fol their luxurious comfort
during the trip, and has his own re-
preventative, who is a friend OF
Soviet officials, along to attend to all
details. Thus the commission IS
to get ''the real truth about Russia"
In announcing this trip the Hearst
panels indentify Con. Frear as "the
right-hand man of Senator La Fol-
lette, who absolutely controls the
policies of his state" and that
Frear is "open- minded as to the
Soviet government"
The statement adds that "The
findings of this unofficial commits
SIGN cannot fail to influence Congress
and public opinion, and the happiness
of Russia's teeming millions may be
affected thereby"
And Frear should worry about his
teeming constituents in the Tenth
Congressional District of Wisconsin,

LETTERS OF INTEREST
TO BOARD OF TRADE

A letter from the st. Petersburg
Chamber of Commerce to the Manag-
ing Secretary has been received
which is as follows:
1--WE have been interested in the
various letters received from your
splendid town relative to the map
which our Motor Club is sending out.
We are using this old print simply
as a basic map for marking automo-
bile roads, and the fact that it did not
have Wildwood on it was not noticed
by us. We explain to the tourists to
whom the map is given that the map
itself is not essential, but only the
roads penciled thereon, and it certain
ly is not working any hardship on
your splendid resort. However, if we
should have a new print made at any
time, including the Jersey Coast, we
will certainly be sure that Wildwood
is included"
Thanking you for calling u atten-
ton to the matter, we are
Very truly yours,
(Signed) LEO L. EDDY, Sec'y.
The following letter has been re-
ceived at the Board of Trade office
and speaks for itself:
Replying to your letter regarding
placing the name Wildwood upon our
road direction signs, we regret the
delay in answering your letter, but
same had been mislaid. We find that
we have IS signs erected upon which
the name Wildwood appears. We shall
be pleased to keep this matter in
mind and place the name Wildwood
upon all signs we erect in the future
where it is consistent to do so.
Regarding your inquiry as to where
the space is sold on fiashers, would
advise that we do not have any inter-
est in these fiashers, but it may be
possible that you could secure the de-
sired information by communicating
with the American Gas Accumulation
Co., in Elizabeth, whose name we
have noticed appears on nearly all of
these fiashers."
Yours truly,

we have no feet? That is impossible"
