Must Pass Through Crisis.
Labor, of course. may evolve. as the
Tories have evolved-a Fascist like Lord
Rothermere calls Baldwin a Socialist.
But Labor has crisis to pass through
first. Committed to socialistic nostrums
it has to try them and see them
ANONYMOUSLY fail. After which 1t may
shed its socialistic skin-as after the
general strike the trade unions shed
their extremist top and their Com
munist under skin-and get down to
brass tackS.
The detached observer sees that
Labor wants to go too far and the
Tory not far enough, and that the
younger generation is reacting against
an arid Tory social policy and finding
no spiritual home to go to until he
comes right down to Labor.
Lloyd George is detached observer
He sees beyond the immediate prospect
of a Labor-Liberal coalition and has
visions of an ultimate center group
anti-socialist but not anti-labor, which
will gather in all the youth. energy
adventure and hope Of the nation-and
accept the wizard from the Welsh
mountains as its leader.
Behind all this political maneuverilN
and wheeling and clashing and shut
fling looms the economic factor, the one
mighty, fixed and unacceptable factor
the factor of the savings account. the
bank balance and the dinner pail.
The far seeing-Henry Ford and
Harvey Firestone among them-have
their eyes fixed upon 1t, and to them it
looks like tariff wall moving steadily
closer and they are fastening to get
their factories up on the inside before
the wall arrives and rises, first around
Britain and then around the empire.

- when men were just learning to
stand on two feet instead of on four,
the great Sun God alone would have
been the one to receive his fears and
propitiations and promises. Even now,
at this late day, there is in his mind
and heart no uncertainty as to the
malefic supremacy of the sun in those
regions where its power Is concentrate
and undiverted. Here are stories of
travel in Africa where the solar might
is at its height. The Ivory Coast,
Senegal, French Sudan, and other parts
OF tropical Africa have contributed in
their facts to this terrible story of a
slavery more hideous than any inven-
ton Of mere man could devise. Going
along with this author Is an magma
ton that appears to have deep contacts
with the inhabitants that are so clearly
IN bond to the strangling fecundity of
this tropical land The truth of his
observations are, therefore, interpreted
under such prepossession of his own.
Not that one doubts the accuracy of
his reports. Not at ALL On the con-
trary. the situation becomes here that
blend of truth and implication and
poetic conception that, In the hands
of the genius everything In the world
becomes, no matter how prosaic it may
upon the surface appear. Again, TINS
is terrible story. beginning with the
picture Of man--a civilized official
from the West--who disintegrates, who
literally decays under the sun of
Africa, just as the rest of the yegeta-
ton of that quarter rots and disap-
pears. That is what tropical Africa
does to the white man. What 1t does
to the black man-nobody will ever
understand. It is too deep-seated, too
involved in O. rapacious and Unsuitable
power, blind. but none the less destruc-
tive. A fascinating and terrible story
Of travel.

RAYON AND SILK-HOW
TO DISTINGUISH THEM

The average homemaker has very
inadequate knowledge of the fabrics
made from synthetic fbers and the
question is frequently asked, How can
I tell rayon from Silk?" This is not
surprising, says Miss Marion Weller,
associate professor in textiles and
clothing, home economics division,
University Farm, ST. Paul, for many
rayon fabrics are now being made
which cannot easily be distinguished
from silk. Frequently purchase of a
rayon fabric is made on the SUPPOSE
ton that it Is silk.
There was time when rayon was
recognized by its extreme metallic
luster. This Is still partially true, but
de-lustering processes have been dis
covered by which it is possible to pro-
duce an all-rayon material which has
as little luster as the dullest of silk
crepes.
Sometimes the price of the fabric
will be an indication, for a pound of
raw silk costs from two to three times
as much as rayon. A simple burning
test viii often answer the question

Shipments Of storage stock In

forwarded only $50 cars, Idaho de-
cerased slightly to go but about
ITO cars came from north central
states. and GAS from Maine. New
York and Pennsylvania together
shipped only 300 cars.
Movement OF new potatoes de-
