After Lenine, What?

| Lenine is dead-in good faith thi:
has been so many times before.
This spectacular sky-rocket flashed
across the sky of history, blazing il
| the clouds, of revolution, and now i
has gone utterly out.
Trotzky is ''recuperating' some
where, but anyhow out of power.
What next in Russia?
Better?
Or worse?
Lenine and Trotzky have stood tt
the world for Russia's new rule, and
the world hasn't much liked what il
heard of them. Certainly, in the main
it has not been at all tempted to copy
their plan.
Other names have appeared with
theirs and have been forgotten but
power now lies somewhere among
those other names. What will the
owners of those names do with it?
On the whole, the impression seems
to be that men even more radical than
these two will come to power. That
would be logical. Lenine and rrotzky
were as radical as they make them
when they came to power, but they
had found that utopian dreams are
not Immediately applicable to human
Ity in it's present stage Of develop
ment, and they had had to consider
compromise.
1t is likely that men impatient OF
compromise will succeed them. In
that case, Russia must get worse be-
fore it can get better
Though historical parallels rarely
work out accurately, it is not posi-
bic to avoid rejecting that the French
revolution, the nearest likeness in his
tory to what happened in Russia, fol
lowed that course.
1t went from moderate radicalism
to immoderate, then to worse, until
Robespierre rode the savage pillows
of the Reign of Terror.
And then certain young artillery
officer named Napoleon first entered
history with his whit of grapeshOt"
on the thirteenth Vendeniare' ;
whereupon order appeared, the ocean
of blood subsidized and dried up, and
new chapters in human history were
opened.

Bolshevism as they were under the

poria Gazette.
Forty wears ago and more when al
American boy or girl went to college
it was to satisfy desire for educa-
ton. A student of the last genera
ton who went to college had LITTLE
lure in the social end of the school;
organized intercollegiate athletics dio
not draw him at ALL There was none.
If he was country boy, he came
from family in which there were a
few well read books. If he was d
town boy, he came from famil!
where there was slightly wider Ell
vironment of books. But books in
spired him. Books and love OF
reading, the desire to widen his men
tai and spiritual horizon by getting
into the knowledge of his generation
and the wisdom of the ages, furnished
the primary urge that sent the Ameri-
ca boy or girl to college until thirty
years ago.
During the last twenty Yeas, two
things happened: First, the colleges
have become tremendously attractive
to youth, quite outside of the course
of study. Second, the rise OF the econ

family has made it possible for thou
sands of young people to go 10 these
attractive colleges who have no cul-
tural background whatever, vino are
hot interested in books and reading
and who regard education as merely
an equipment for making a living.
Hence, we have hordes of stupid, in
educable college students. The college
spirit, outside of college athletics, so.

Quarantine Law
Rigidly Enforced

When Jack Linden recently re-
turned TO California from u trip
to the citrus districts of Arizona,
in the vicinity of Phoenix, he was
stopped by inspectors of the Cali
fornia State department of Agri-
culture at the state line. This
was on. account of citrus trees
which he had in his possession.
These trees were taken to Arizo-
ma from California. He had no
trouble in entering Arizona, for ap-
parently, the Arizona quarantine
laws are not as rigidly enforced AS
those of California.
According to Linden, Arizona has
the reputation of enforcing strict
quarantine laws but in his opinion
California still leads in this respect.
California endeavors to enforce its
quarantine laws rigidly for the pur-
pose of preventing the entrance of
any plant diseases or insect pests
which may prove detrimental to our
agricultural industry.

DNGRESSIONAL REPORT BELITTLING
| WORK OF MRS. S. M. ATWOOD INDIANS
FRIEND RECEIVED HERE AFTER TALK

ed without comment. Nothing to
compare with it has heretofore been
seen in connection with Indian leg
islation pending before congress.
This propaganda has been insidious,
untruthful, and malicious and will
result in great harm to the indians
of this country if it is permitted to
be continued. Some Of this propa,
ganda is nothing more nor less than
criminal libel.
"Those responsible for it have at
tempted to destroy the confidence
of the Indians in the Indian Bu'
reau and the officials who are by
law charged with their guardian
ship
These assertions made in the re.
port Immediately following sum.
mary Of the trip made by Mrs. At
wood with the II Pueblo Indians to
Washington in January of last yeal
may be passed over without com
ment, as their purport is quite evi
dent.
That those opposed to Mrs. At
wood g work in behalf of the In
dians are keeping a careful watch
on her movements and endeavorine
to counteract any sentiment created
by her by presenting the other side
of the question is evidenced by the
fact that Mrs. Fawcett and the Pres,
received these reports, which were
mailed from Ell Paso, following the
talk here.

Is Latest Model
From w. @. Plant


Claude Cotton, manager Ell Cen
tro branch of the Davis Overland

l os Angeles where he attended the
annual convention of Southern Cali
fornia Willys-Overland dealers.
President John N. WHY'S, General
Sales Manager Roy Peed and Gen
eral Advertising Manager Ward
Canady from Toleda, Ohio, were pre-
sent as were about 500 dealers and
distributors. Mr.. WHY'S was very
optimistic and the future looks very
promising, Mr.. Cotton reports.
The factory is producing over q
thousand ears a day, the most in its
history and an additional model, a
business coupe was announced to the
dealers, which will be publically an
nounced April Is. With this new
model added to the line Mr.. Cotton
tates that there is no type of car
which any purchaser might desire
that the Willys-Overland Company
does not produce.
Sales for the month of March just
closed exceeded those of any other
month but one, in the history of

CalexicO Takes
Game Saturday
BY LEROY r. SMITH
(High School, Junior College
Reporter)

Saturday was an unlucky day for
the local high school. Up to Satur-
day the nine had been taking every
baseball game played with the other
valley schools. 1t was not able to
hold Calexico from making Is runs
to Central's 5, then though. This
does not mean that Central will
not have a chance at the champion
ship, however; Calexico must play
return game. The return match
will be played on the home grounds.
Since both teams are expected to
take all of the games they play be-
tween now and then, that game
will without doubt decide the
championship.
The Central girls, too, were un-
lucky in the girls valley track
meet held on the local high school
grounds Saturday. Brawley won the
meet with a score of SO. Central
and Calexico tied for second place
with 10 each. Imperial took only
points. A full list of the local
winners in various events will be
printed tomorrow.
