Utopia of an international brother hood, attainable by a revolutionary proletarian dictatorship.
 Intc-nationaIism Least Thought.
 This young railroad guard is a product of the last revolution. Many thousand like him may be found throughout Russia today Perhaps they have absorbed some inkling of internationalism from the third in ternational, but to more than one ob- server sof Russia they seem to be red -blooded, enthusiastic notional- ists, and nothing else. The red army" to them means the Russian army; the red fleet" means the Rus sian fleet, and the red air service" means Russian aviation. This boy boasted of his home town, of his state, of his railroad and of Russia in comparison to England, Germany, France and the United States. Inter- nationalism was the last thing in his head. His thoughts were all of Rus sia, not as a leader in communism, but as 2 national entity of which he could be proud. He was the exponent of personal nationalism, youthful and vigorous, produced by the hap penings of the last six years that to- day is readily found by observers who look below the surface in Rus sia.
 There would appear to be also something of this same nationalist spirit in the hearts and heads of the older communistic crusaders at the Kremlin. Now and then they play nationalist jokes on their interna- tionalist selves. They play Russia s hand in the international poker game; bet for such stakes as Wran- gel Island, and cling tenaciously tc the chips that may be used in some future jack pot involving land, oi ports or ships over which once flew the flag of old Russia.
 Such thoughts evidently are in the minds of Lenine. Trotzky and the other leaders, They surely prevai with the young guard on the Riga Moscow express, who typifies a new spirit abroad in the land. a A commercial teiepraphy company has succeeded in receiving daily mes sages from Hillsboro, Oregon, at a radio receiving station setup at

TRUANT OFFICERS
HERE TO ENFORCE
ATTENDANCE LAW
Board Employs Four Per-
sons to Keep Watch Over
Children of School Age.

-Four attendance officers will be
at work in San Antonio during the
coming school year to enforce the
compulsory education laws, it became
known at a called meeting of the
school board Wednesday afternoon,
with the action of the board in elect
ing two men and two women to fill
the positions. Those elected were
Mrs. r. C. Hugman, Miss Eva Moss
brook, Roy Barneburg and Joe
Olivarri.
The officers were elected for q
period of nine months at salary of
$50 a month beginning September
10. Each officer, however, will be
required to furnish and maintain an
automobile.
San Antonio public schools have
been without attendance officers for
the last two, years. While the schools
were in an oyer-crowded condition,
the members of the board took the
viewpoint that there would be no rea-
son for the employment Of attendance
officers when the capacity of the
school plant was inadequate to meet
the demands of an increased attend
ance. With the school building pro-
gram now well under way, and sew
eral buildings now in the stage of
construction that promises their COM
pletion within few weeks, members
| of the board believe that the election
Of attendance officers at this time is
advisable. ..
School supplies will not be handled
| through cafeterias, pursuant to &C.
ton by the school board upon the
recommendation of Mrs. Henry
Guerra. Cafeterias will be devoted
exclusively to the handling of food.
Two additional school nurses may
be added. The matter was referred
to a committee consisting of Mrs,
Henry Guerra, Mrs. G. Z. Hoff and
DIR. w. III. Hargis.
Upon the recommendation of the
teachers committee, G.. W. Gatke
formerly of Iowa was elected prin
cipal of Washington Irving junior
high school, and c. G. Ball, also Of
Iowa, was elected director of the de
partment of related arts in junior

fiscated at Two Houses

range streets. When they rushed into
the place they claim they found great
piles of pint bottles, filled with home
brew, stacked all around.
The woman demanded the arrest of
the occupant of the place, declaring
he had administered severe whip
ping to her. The beer, she claimed,
belonged to him. An inventory show
ed there were approximately 800 bot
ties of beer on the premises. In ad-
dition two fifteen-gallon barrels of
beer were also found.
Chief Van Ripper, Detective Captain
Street and Dry Agent Mckay re-
sponded to the call sent to headquar-
tiers by Captain Brown for the pa
troll and additional officers. A suffi-
cient quantity of the beer was re-
tanned as evidence.
Led by the woman, who was much
"peeved" because of the beating she
claims was given her, the officers
walked TO another house on Saltillo
street, short distance away. 1t was
the home of the brother of the man
she charges had beaten her.. Here the
officers found another supply of beer.
about 200 bottles. A few were taken
for evidence and the others were de-
stroyed on the premises.
The two brothers were taken into
custody, both booked at police head
quarters for local dry officers to be
transferred on charges of violating the
national prohibition act. One brother
is also booked on charge Of assault
on the woman. Formal charges were
expected to be filed during the day.

Unless highway bonds are is

that the user each year will pay

added.
