while they realized that chiroprac-
tic is less fatal to the human or
ganism than surgery they saw in
it a danger to the dictatorship of
the proletariat. Instead of shoot
ing the chiropractors they called a
caucus Of the Communist members
of the faculty at the Scientific
University of Irsktuk and offered
a bonus for the invention of an
automatic machine that would eli
inmate the chiropractor peril. In
six months time young Commun-
ist scientist by the name of M.
Feodersnutsky presented the Min
istry of Health with a robot that
acts with more intelligence than
the average American voter. The
machine is now operating in TWEEN
ty large Russian cities.
How Machine Works.
Here is how it works: A Rus
sian suffering from dipsomania,
neurasthenia, hypochondria or any
of the other ailments that call for
spinal adjustments, presents him
self at the chiropractic section of
local hospital. He is given a
key to a booth in which to undress.
Having Invested himself of his
garments he hangs the key around
his neck or wrist after the fashion
of bather at an American pub
lie beach. Then he drops a ruble
into slot outside the door of his
booth and lays face downwards on
a table which starts for the robot
machine as soon as the ruble
clicks In the slot. The table brings
him underneath this contraption
which begins shaping and snap
ping on his spine. 1t does every
thing that a chiropractor does ex-
cept explain the science of chiro-
practic to the patient. 1t takes
the machine five minutes to do the
job, after which the table stands
up on end and slides the Russian
into a sulphur bath. After three
minutes in the bath the farther
end of the tub opens, letting out
the water and also the patient who
is rushed thru a roller and then
tossed in rough towels, from there
he is slid onto a small truck
which brings him back to his booth
where he can dress. When he OPP
ems the door of the booth to leave
he releases another contraption
which places a flower in his but
ton hole and sprinkles him with
perfume.

Use of disaster for agriculture and
industry, Notwithstanding the noble
reassurances of the administra-
ton, must be left for another time.
Here be it noted that this develop
ment alone is the reason for the
sudden show of life, the new ges-
ture of hope which is being made
in the Senate. The reasons why
the farmers of the country have
nothing to hope from their special
session of Congress have already
been detailed at length in previ-
Gus dispatches and need be refer
red to only incidentally here. The
most vital need of the farmers at
this moment is to obtain compre-
hensive and clear, total picture of
what has taken place, how it was
manipulated and who is respon-
sible. The next year, leading up
to the 1880 elections, is due to wit
ness one of the slickest exhibitions
of political ledgerdemain yet stag
ed. A way will, no doubt, be
found by which all factions can
escape-if the farmers can again
be lulled to sleep. The most i'm
portant point to note at this time
is the method by which the ad.
ministration and President Hoover
is being shielded from response
bility. This will be the keynote
of the coming campaign: the old
Guard republicans will be blamed,
but Hoover. will be exonerated.
Wall Street is vile but Hoover is
pure. The part which the social
ed Western Progressives are play
ing in this shabby game will be
shown in a moment. First, how
ever. let us have the main devel-
opments, the picture as a whole.
No amount of "buck nassinpS
should serve TO obscure the es-
sential factor in the situation,
that the Hoover administration
made certain pledges to the farm
ers; no amount of political cam
outage can conceal the fact that.
dividing the blame for the betrav-
al of these pledges among all
groups, the President, nevertheless
must be shouldered with the main
responsibility. This is not an
opinion merely but a conclusion
based on the clear imports of the
facts:
BOrah Should Know.
The special session of Congress.
as is well known, had its origin
in a promise made by Hoover at
the suggestion of Senator Borah.
Borah, if anyone, should know
what the purpose of that call was.
Recently on the floor of the SEN
ate, that Great Deflater of Good
Causes, himself spilled the beans:
when the special session or
iginated in the first instance, the
first conception was that It
was to deal with farm relief
alone. Owing to the existence
of certain interests which felt
they had a special situation, the
President enlarged the scope of
the session.. to cover GER
tain schedules. but origin
ally no such thing was contem-
plated"

Log of the Tanker

san Francisco, Aug. 30 GfP)- The story Of the collision between the $. c. T. Dodd and the San Juan is graphically told by the Dodd's outgoing radio log:
 "11;59 p. m. sos, We have col lided with the San Juan. She is sinking Do not know extent of our damage Please rush aid"
 From then on the story is much more graphically told by the Dodd's messages to radio stations. These included:

 "12:0G a. Standing by.

Berlin Papers DisapproNe

Berlin, Aug. 30 P)-Only a few Berlin newspapers commented on the agreement between Germany and her creditors announced yes terday at the Hague separations conference which the socialist Vor- waerts describes as "opening a new chanter in European history"
 The democratic papers in gen. eral agree that what had been achieved after so much trouble and confusion is a positive step towar'l peace.
 The Catholic organ Germania commented, We do not love the Young plan but wc prefer it as the lesser evil and because it means restoration of Germany's territorial ard financial sovereignty"
 The democratic 1'ageblatt re- marked, "The liberation of the Rhineland from foreign troops anI from the nightmare of foreign con- trol is a welcome achievement. On the other hand economic and finan- cial conditions, as well as the up- "hot of the first discussion of the Sr9r problem. give occasion for m""h criticism,
 Germany. however. has every Toaeon to acknowledge the outcome cf tho Hague conference as sue core"
 The Doutscho Angpmeino zci- tu~g, or~an Of important German industrialsts, said, "Wo ought not 10 have to put up with the Young "'an and itT burden for two genera tions and obtain relief only for the next few years. Wc will have to ray more dearly for it's enforce mcnt than should have been neces. sarv."
 The nationalist Lollal Anzoiger was the most sarcastic and critical of the morning press. "The German delegation has given way in manner not consider ed possible four days ago, and France as m equivalent conces- sion, hae G%a1 a date for the ovacu- alton of inc Rhinnland which could hardly have been different even if no negotiations had taken place because England was deter mined 10 evacuate the Rhincland and had even induced Belgium to share her way of thinking"
 Another nationalist newspaper the Tages Zeitung, charactorizes the fixing of the evacuation date for the coming year as "a new provo cation."
