1T SEEMS TO ME BY HR EES2S

Economically speaking, Great
Britain is no better off than con-
quered Germany. And this ten
dency for all contenders to share
in the pool of disaster will grow
more rigid.
To put it frankly, another World
war would leave Europe and Ameri-
ca in situation where there would
be nothing left to win.
Both material and spiritual re-
sources surely would be exhausted
in such conflict.
Even in the case of well-estab-
lished governmental setups, a new
war in all probability would mean
revolution. And Communist dream
ers who see in such a cataclysm
their chance for coming into power
might find themselves disappointed.
Under period of acute economic
distress and disorder, the most likely
step is a move toward absolutism
and a Fascist dictatorship.
If we all stood under the severe
necessity of looking for enough food
to keep populous cities from Starva-
ton, immediate relief might well
come only through the rapid emer-
gence of some strong man who could
hastily improvise way to keep rail-
road transportation open.

Russia Is Going Without To-
day IN Order to Get More
for Tomorrow.

for TOm0TrOW.
By United Press
NEW YORK, May 2S.-While
IN other industrial leaders worry
about what Russia may produce and
dump, Sir Henri Deterding sees low
consumption as her greatest fault.
This is a unique view amid all
the scared chatter, but not without
logic.
AS Sir Henri says, Russia arbi-
trarily has reduced consumption by
her people to accumulate SURPRISES
which can be traded for the services
and machinery needed to carry out
the five-year plan.
Her spectacular purchases Of me-
chanical equipment have served to
obscure the fact that she is buying
very little of those common COM
modities which go with the wear
and tear of human existence.

Trade Rivalry to Blame

TARIFFS, special agreements,
l. and other shady deals by which
governments have sought to boost
their own welfare at one another's
expense have played havoc with
human emotions.
Trade rivalry is largely to blame
for the great military establish
mentS which are being maintained.
More than anything else, it has
helped to rejuvenate the necessary
amount Of prejudice, fear, and
suspicion.
The fortified frontier is natural
accompaniment of the tariff. The
artificial barbados which nations
are erecting to block the natural
flow of trade leave far more at
stake than depression. They leave
war itself looming in the back
ground.
Is an inflated tire heavier than
a Debated one?
Air is ponderable and an inflated
tire is heavier than one that is de-
flated.
How can American mechanics,
engineers and specialists obtain Jobs

What part Of the population of
France, Germany and Italy are Ro-

There are about one million
Protestants in France, the remain

many 80 per cent Of the population
is Roman Catholic and in Italy
about IS per cent are Catholics.

John Kohler. 46 years of age, and for many years a resident of Homer, died some time during the night of April Is from the effects of strangu- lation, self-inflicted, according to. the Seldovia Herald.
 The suicide, the Herald explains, was committed in a room which Koh- Ter rented over the Blue Fox Cafe and the body was discovered Late on the afternoon of the following day by John Colburn, the proprietor of the building.
 A cord, supplemented by a wire, had been attached to the bed and looped around the mari.s neck. He evidently had deliberately dropped toward the floor, allowing she cord and wire to become taut.
 Kohler was known to be fairly prosperous, owning a .160+&ere home stead at Homer, and last year fished at a profit. It is reported that he had spoken of q bad heart condition, so some think the idea of failing health may have preyed on his mind, but, no authentic reason has been offered that would explain the act.
