BY JEROME DAVIS

I just have taken dinner with
United States Senator Tydings from
Maryland, who has been investigat-
ing the economic opportunities in
Soviet Russia. While the senator
deplores the TERRORISM" and arrests
which have sometimes taken place
in the past, he believes, 'We have
been fed with great deal of propa-
ganda about Russia which is false.
"The present Russian government
is as stable as could be expected" he
continues. "They have agreed to
settle American debts and conf1scaU-
ed property and I believe therefore
that recognition cannot be far off.
"Outside of America, Russia offers
the best chance in the world for wise
investment of capital today. have
made an analysis Of the economic
situation and know many Of the con-
crete opportunities. The Russian
government cannot be more radical
than it is, hence it must grow more
conservative. Any capital invested
in the country Is SAFE"

verdict of other impartial Americans

SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENs GRAY HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe
to Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly COM,
pounded, brings back the natural
color and lustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any drug store for
"'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Col>-
pound" you will get large bottle
of this famous old recipe, improved
by the addition of other ingredients,
for only rs cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and

General Electric Company, who have
been in Russia for three months and
have interviewed the executives OF
various plants conclude that now is
unique opportunity for the invest
ment of American capital in Russia.
No one within or without Russia
who has studied the situation scien-
tifically believes that there is any
danger of the Soviet government
falling. However, dictatorial the
political life, it is striving to meet
the needs of the people and will not
be overthrown by them.
Irrespective of the stability of
government, American capital will
not be attracted unless it has def
