over in the leaders, and the in

 And those Russian workmen gave Bill three rousing cheers. He never had any trouble with them from the jump. He soon had sev- eral thousand men under him and if there was a loafer among them he didn't last long.
 Bill. it seems, is so tough the workers love him.
 Some time ago there was a big dinner given to the staff here. Bill was in a dinner coat. patent leather shoes and the rest Of the bourgeois uniform.
 Something happened 10 one Of the big cranes on the river. Bill was summoned. He went out, patent leather shoes and all, and. walking like a cat, hop-stepped out on that crane. 100 feet above the water, repaired the damage and came back to dinner. q would like 10 tell you Bill's last name, but I am afraid my life would not be worth much if he heard about it.

Dnicprostroi, Ukraine, |. S, s. R, Dec. 5-Leading the list of pro jects in Soviet Russia's five-year plan for naturalization is a huge dam and power plant here to cost $1l0 100000.
 An army of 22,000 workers, with 4.000 women for the lighter work, is pushing the job to scheduled completion late in 1882. Nothing is being permitted 10 stand in the way of it's successful conclusion.
 American machinery and Ameri- can methods dominate the scene. where three years ago there was only wilderness. Dnieprostrol now has a population of 60,000.
 The power plant is expected to furnish energy for 4o or 50 fac tories that now are principally in the formative stage. It also will transmit power to coal mines Of the Donetz basin.
 The dam across the river Dniepor Is virtually tWo-thirds completed. Owing to the shortage of labor, the red army has been aiding in it's construction.
 Consulting chief Of the job is Col. Hugh L. Cooper of New York, an American engineer. Associated with him is A. S. Winter. a Russian German, q, close friend of Lenin who was expelled from communist ranks. There also are several American engineers and some of the best Russian technical men.
 These latter likewise are not communists, probably because of the limit to wages paid a member Of rhe party, Joseph Stalin himself receives only about $50 roubles, or t175 a month. The communist engineers usually name their own salaries and get them.

 Almost all the machinery has been brought from America.
 Bill. known as the roughneCk American," is one of the reasons why the great hydro-electric prof eCt here is right up to the schedule of the soviet fiye-year plan.
 His first name really is Hubert His last is a guarded secret. To the laity he is Bill.
 He has one eye, the other having gone out in circumstances discreet ly forgotten. His face is scared. his shoulders are broad and he walks with a slight limp.
 Bill came out here two years ago" explained q sociable Russian engineer, ''to install some cranes we had ordered from America. He knew his job and he did it well.
 When he finished we offered him a contract to stay on and su- pcrintend one of the big labor jobs. And to him we must give credit for the way in which large part of the work has continued at top speed
 Tt seems that when Bill came here he knew no Russian. The first thing he insisted on being taught was how to swear in Rus sian. Then he learned d few neces- sary sentences and gathered his crew of several hundred men about him. He had carefully worked out a little speech. This was il:
