DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
What would be your advice
to neighbor who wishes to IN
form a husband of his wife's in
fidelity, IL it could be called
that?
when the husband is away
An intimate friend comes TO the
house much more often than
when the husband In there. lie
has put his car at the wites
disposal and she is seen driving
1t at all times. Do you believe
there can be real, true, platonic
friendship, and only that, be-
tween this man. who admits he
loves the wife, and the wife who
shows that she thinks heaps Of
him?'
do you believe this husband
should remain in ignorance? Do
You think we women should have
ito submit to this farce going on
every day? Do you advise us TO
talk TO her? We like her very
much, but things have progressed
to such an extent that even the
husbands in the neighborhood
are now asking their wives
whether this be true. Should
we-cOuld We--do anything?
"A NEIGHBORHOOD KHAN"
Yes, there are several things
you can do, my friends, regard
ing the petty gossip that has
sprung up in your neighborhOOd.
You can utterly refuse to voice
gossip. or spread it. farther by
your talk. You can refuse to
pass judgment on any human
being on mere suspicion. You
can give your friends and neigh
bors the benefit of the doubt and
let them manage their own af-
fairs without interference. In

RADITCH BURIAL
BRING PEASANTS

ZAGREB, Yugoslavia, Aug. 49,
The determination of the Croatian
peasants for complete autonomy
from the suppressive rule of the
Belgrade government was evidenced
today when 100000 peasants par
ticipated in the funeral of their
leader Stefan Raditch, who died as
a result of wounds received in the
Belgrade parliament.
Representatives of the Belgrade
government were not admitted to
the funeral, in spite of their request
that they be allowed to attend.
Peasant delegations placed wreaths
upon the grave of the dead autono-
mist leader, and the martyrs crown
of thorns predominated-an ex-
preston of the sentiment for the
autonomist aims of Raditch.

The Syrian assembly proposed to
frame its constitution in such a way
that would declare virtual indie

League of Nations and the French
government refuses to grant.
Under the arrangement with the
League of Nations, the French gov
eminent, after the suppression of
the 1925 rebellion allowed the
Syrians to elect an assembly, in an
attempt to appease the liberal sec
ton of the nationalists. Since 1926
the radicals in the assembly have
been pressing for national indie
pendence and when the movement
became too strong the assembly was

SWEEPS
INDUS VALLEY
Natives Flee Rushing
Icy Torrent

KARACHI, British India, Aug.
10 (UP).-Millions of tons of icy
water poured with terrific force
down the Indus Valley today,
sweeping everything before them.
The torrent was released when a
glacier damming a tributary of the
Indus River about lao miles beyond
Lehin, Kashmir, gave way to 8 p. m.
Sunday.
Natives Flee.
Natives in the path of the de-
vastating flood, forwarned, fled to
the hills. No telegraph facilities ex-
list in the valley, but one of the
most ancient formes of human COM
munication, signal fires, were light
ed on the hilltops and word was
passed to the imperilled villages.
Canon were fired also and the
word sped with incredible rapidity
through Kashmir, one bonfire pick
ing up where another left off.
Pent Up for Weeks.
Water had been pent up for
weeks in what once was the bed of
the River Shayok, forming vast
lake 1900 feet above sea level in
the Karakorum Mountain range, in
the great plateau of Central Asia.
When the glacial barrier broke,
the water poured down from that
great height, irresistible in its on
rush. 1t was feared the entire In
dus Valley would be inundated.
The bursting glacier was 1900
feet thick and more than 1000 wide.
1t held in check lake nine miles
long and 300 feet deep.
Districts May Be Wiped Out.
1t was feared the Nubra and
Shaddu districts would be wiped out
within the next few days.
All during the night and today,
streams of natives struggled up
ward from the valley to places Of
safety. Troops were sent from
Nowshera to the upper Indus Valley
to assist in the evacuation. Indus
River steamers were ordered to pro-
coed downstream to Sucker and Hv-
derabad.

JUGOSLAv WHITE
TERROR GROWING
AS CRISIS COMES
Workers and Peasants
Prosecuted

BELGRADE, (By Mail). - The
conspiracy against the leader of the
Belgrade political police, Zika La
zic, has led the Jugoslav murderers
into a new, frightful terrorization.
The Zagreb police alone have
thrown no less than thirty Bull
garian and Macedonian students
into prison. The prisoners find
themselves in great danger.
Six of the arrested are suspected
of taking part in the conspiracy and
have been transported to Belgrade.
Their investigation has just begun.
The other prisoners have not been
released until now, although the po-
lice could not bring any proof at all
against them.
The police have not stopped at
these arrests. AS the example of
the Skruptschina murder shooting
of Paul and Stefan Raditch in the
Belgrade parliament) shows, the
Jugoslav police, at this critical po-
litical moment, are attempting to
draw the attention away from the
affair by mass arrests and persecu-
tions of revolutionary workers and
especially the functionaries of the
labor movement.
The press is forbidden to publish
anything about these investigations
and prosecutions.
Zika Lazic was one of the most
reactionary leaders of the white ter
or. He was the leader of the "Black
Hand" which issued orders to the
executioners of the prison hole of
"Glavnjaca" in Belgrade. He made
all Jugoslavia suffer with unbe-
lievable brutality the suppression
of the labor movement, of the revo-
lutionary peasantry and the ma
tional minorities.
He was known as specialist for
the Serbian terror in Macedonia.
His crimes in Monastir, Ueskub and
Istip only exceed the terror of the
followers of Protogeroff in the
Bulgarian part of Macedonia. He
has instigated numerous murders of
national revolutionary Macedonians
and revolutionary workers and
peasants and passed over the ter
roristfc acts of the fascist organiza-
ton against the Macedonian revolu-
tionary movement. Lazic has also
cooperated in preparations for the
murders of the Croatian represen-
tatives in the Skruptschina, and the
number of his victims is so great
that it is almost impossible to per-
ceive from what quarter his assas-
sination was planned.
