STAIN HOLDS
WORLD PEACE
IN HIS HANDS
Political Boss of SoVietS
AII-PoWerfuI in Rule
Over Russia.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
seripps- Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, July 7.-More
than ever before. watchers in the
foreign Office Of world capitals viii
keep their eyes on Joseph Stain.
Communist man Of iron, Russia s
now all-powerful dictator.
Step by step this son Of a peasant
shoemaker has bowled over obstacles
until today. politically having ami
hilated Premier Rykof. Tomsk
Uglanof and others of the right"
opposition, he is as much master. OF
his country's destiny as was Car
Peter or Catherine the Great whose
seat he occupies.
Much depends upon this one
mans decisions. even the peace Of
the world. Yet theoretically he has
nothing TO do with the government,
that being in the hands Of others.
His job is secretary general Of the
Communist party. like being chair
man Of the Republican or Demo-
cratic national committee.
Like Political Boss
Stain is IKE an American polit-
ical boss who. without holding Office,
dictates who shall be elected, then
tells the officeholders what to do.
Joseph Vissarionovitch Stain is
not even a Russian. He was born
in Georgia. beyond the Caucasus.
Educated in a Russian religious
school, he was expelled for "unre-
liability"
At II, he already was a revolu-
tionary. Arrested and exiled to
Siberia he escaped only to be ar
rested and exiled again for similar
activities. Four times he was sent
into exile and four times he escaped.
In 1917, he became one of Lenin's
right hand men, but it was not he,
but Alexis Rykoff. who became pre-
mier upon the leaders death.
Stain is too rough" Lenin wrote
just before he died, and proposed
deposing him as Secretary-generaI
Of the Communist party. What was
wanted, said Lenin. was a leader
who would be more patient, more
loyal. more courteous. more atten-
tive to his comrades, and less capri
cious"
TrOtsky in Exile
TrotSky. when he was fighting TO
win the mantle of Lenin for him
self. used this letter against Stain.
As result, Trotsky now is an exile
whose. life would not be worth a
thin dime we're he to return to Mos
COW.
Yes, I'm rough" Stain admitted
TO Trotsky as they stood, face to
face in their last interview. And
the look he gave TrotSky was cold
and hard.
But Stains opposition did not
end with the departure of Trotsky.
According to Moscow dispatches, it
seems to have been continued by
another faction. headed by Premier
Rykoff, Tomski Uglanoff and CO.
terie. Now this has been wiped out,
1t is said, as completely as if it had
never existed, leaving the Georgian
the undiSputed boss of all the Rus
sias.
Stain loves to remain in the
shadows. unseen, while he manipu-
lateS the strings. He prefers to let
others have the limelight. If his
pets fail to dance as he thinks they
should. into the junk pile they 60.

Defined
RECIPROCAL
INSURANCE

A reciprocal is in the nature of
an association wherein the assured
becomes both insured and insurer.
Each subscriber insures the others
and in return is insured by the
others. The subscribers severally
appoint an attorney-in-fact to con-
duct the business for them.
Through this attorney the prin-
cipals bind themselves in the in
auguration and continuance of the
common plan. He is the only officer
and has absolute power over who
may be accepted as subscribers;
what the rates of indemnity shall
be; what subscribers must pay
from time to time; the settlement
and payment of losses and in prac-
tical effect has every power of a
board of directors, plus many i'm
portant powers which such boards
do not have.

STOCK
INSURANCE

A stock insurance company is a
corporation organized, controlled
and owned by shareholders who
have invested money in the COM
pany. Stock insurance corpora
tions are subject to the regulatory
laws of the several States in exact
" the same way that mutual COM
panies are. The stock insurance
company assumes the insurable
hazards of policy holders, charging
them a premium and from time to
time, as considered advisable by
the Directors, distributes its earn
ings or profits in the form of cash
or stock dividends to its stock
holders.

.HoHday'B Charming
Hit for Players
BY ANDREW r. KELLEY

The sixth season Of the Ma
tional Players got under way
auspiciously last night with the
presentation of Philip Barry's
smart comedy Of sophistication,
Holiday
playwright Barry in Holiday"
caters to the polite palate. The
three acts abound In lines that
have snap and are cleverly
turned, the banter is gay and
sometimes sparkles, the Park
Avenue chit chat amusing, the
triangular romance ingeniously
worked out in amiably paced
drama.
AS an opening play selection to
show off the aristocratic talents
Of an exceedingly capable com
pany, the choice Of Holiday" is
ideal. Here is an actors play
and one to charm a director for
there is q minimum of heavy
handed plot and dramatic action.
The force and the punch Of "Holi-
day" derives from deft speech in
the light comedy mood. From
the front row perch Of this ob-
server it seemed to me that
Playwright Barry had he been
present last night could have
found q delight In an incredibly
smooth first performance OF his
play.
The story of Holiday" tells of
Jack Case, an attractive young
business man, without money or
social position, who falls In love
with Julia Seton, of the social
register SetonS. Case has every
thing desirable in q suitor ex-
cept a blind worship. for money
and tradition. His strange IDEAS
on how to get the most out OF
life center on landing the first
$40, 900, spending it in the most
congenial way and then after
the holiday making some more.
This viewpoint fails to enthuse
his prospective wealthy father-1n-
law, although it does seem TO the
younger sister, Linda, that tfa1e
might be some merit in the idea.
At least she is captured by the
enthusiasm of the youthful
dreamer. For three highly anus.
ing acts the conflict RACES be.
tween the sisters with the cur
tain dropping on what appears
to be q harmonious solution OF
loves problem.
Attention focused upon Walter
Gilbert, new leading man Of the
players, in the role of Jack Case,
and he met the test admirably.
Blessed with the, pulchritude
deemed essential for matinee
idols he also exhibits the assur-
ance, ease and acting graces
which make o part convincing.
Unless every first night sign is
misleading the Gilbert vogue Is
in the rnaking-and making love
will help establish it.
n The honorS for the feminine
principals divide between the
'Marions. The vagarieS Of cast
ling placed Marion Wells, new
leading woman in the role of
LlnQa. Marion SCerly was Gne
Julia. OF the same relative i'm
,portance it impressed one, per.
hapS too meticulous a critic, an
exchange of sides would have
been more in conformity with the
Barry purpose. Miss Sterly is
distinctly an ingenue asset. More
about Miss Wells as the season
lengthens.
There was q cordial welcome
for the e Street veterans. Ro-
maine Calender handed the witty
gem of the Holiday" Script-a
droll treatise on how to attain
success which would adorn a
bright page for the New Yorker
made much of the opportunity.
Freddy Sherman as the bibulouS
Med Seton" of the play cemented
his popularity by a fine perform
ance and H. Dudley Hawley as
the snobbish papa Seton was i'm
