Gregory Zinovietf, once powerful
figures in the Councils of the Communist
Party, now are threatened with final
dismissal from the party. Their eX-
pulslon has been asked" for by the Presi-
dium of the Central Control Committee.
The Presidium based its recommen-
dations for the dismissal, among other
things on the allegation that Trotzky and
ZinOVietf have engaged in continuous
attempts to break party union at a time
of serious international complications,
aggravated by partial failure of the
Chin csc revolutions and of facilitating
the activities of anti-sOviet agitatio,s
within the Soviet Union.

THE INIT OF LIFE

Thomas A. Edison, being asked his opinion on all
terrestrial and celestial things, his eighteth birth
day gave an unexpected answer to the question, DO
you believe man has soul?
.No one understands" esaid, that is not the
unit of life He is as dead as granite The unit of life
is composed of swarms of billions of highly charged en-
titles which live in the cells. believe that when man
dies this swarm deserts the body and goes out into
space, but keeps and enters another cycle OF lie,
and IS immortal"
People would like to hear more about this. The
statement leaves many things explain Edison evil
IDENTIFY believes in a certain kind Of reincarnation, but
not in the rencarnation of the individual soul or
mind ego" It is not clear that he believes in
human individuality at all.
Most of US will persist in spite of this eminent au-
thority in believing that man is "the unit of life,
genuine individual for this life and for another life
or possibly lives-to follow.
Those reporters, however, should not have put the
question as they did: Has soul?' If there IS
a soul or eternal self, then man is soul.
1t is easier for most thinking persons to believe that
than to believe that he functions in this life IS
only a transient phenomenon, resulting from the ac-
ton of several billion electric cells which themselves
are immortal.

STANDARDIZED PLACE NAMES

Imagination is not supposed to be quality lacking
in real estate men. Yet in the matter Of naming
Streets allotments and committees, they show
strange weakness for copying each other.
So we find streets in different sections of single
city given the same names-until the confusion be-
comes so great that a change is forced We find new
communities being named not according to char
acteristc of their own but after older communities
that have acquired fame Q or another. we
find communities in this country borrowing Old World
oy or Ioyalty-as in the naming of the early colonies
and towns-but simply because of the popularity OF
the older place Riviera in the dictionary refers to
specific beautiful Mediterranean region. If lot of
initiating citizens in several booming sections of
own south have their way, those regions will all have
their own respective 'Rivieras.
Can't something done to inspire in Americans
little more zeal for place names of originality, dstnc
tive character individuality and meaning Of their
own?
