TrOtski Is Sick Man
The climate there is bad, life is
dull and the amenities few. And
Trotski is a sick man. Although
only So, he looks years older. His
hair is going gray. He is twisted
with rheumatism. He has the gout.
He also has chronic colitis.
When Trotski landed in Prinkipo,
he at once set about trying to get
permission to live elsewhere. First
he applied to Germany.
He did so because German doc
tors had in former years treated
him for his many ills. The once
arrogant head of the Red army,
which he had built, applied to the
Germans in most humble terms.
Guaranteed He'd Be Harmless
He guaranteed he would live in
complete isolation outside of Berlin,
would in no case present himself
at public meetings, and in his writ
ings would conform strictly to the
regulations of German laws on the
subject.
The vernmen al officials
charged with the affair said they
did not think Trotski was so sick
that he absolutely needed German
doctors and German waters.
He wired back he was willing to
submit to an examination by any
medical commission they chose to
name and to sign written engage
ment to leave Germany as soon as
his cure was finished. Germany
was adamant. No visa would be
granted him.
Rejected by Norway
Next Trotski applied to Norway.
There was a big debate in the
national parliament. The head of
the surety police expressed
grave fears that TrotSki might be
assassinated. So Norway turned him
down.
He turned to France. The French
government said the expulsion
order, whereby he had been sent out
of France, was still on the books.
Then he turned to England,
famous as a country which has
given asylum to political exiles Be
sides, Labor government was in
power. But J. r. Clynes, Labor
home secretary, refused to let
Trotski come to England
AS Trotski bitterly put it:
Europe and the United States
without a visa These continents
boss the other three. SO then Leon
Trotski lives on a planet without
a visa"

RESTORE THE
buying POWER
Is the Advice of u. S. Sena-
tor Henrik Shipstead in
Radio Address.
Condemns Sales Tax and
Too Much Stocks, Bonds
Mortgage on Future.

United States Senator Henrik Ship
stead condemned as another attack
on the already reduced income of the
mass of the people" the proposal for
a sales tax on goods manufactured for
general consumption in a radio adj
dress over the National Broadcasting
system Monday night. Even the taxes
on larger incomes are likely to prove
disappointing, since persons and cor
of special favors and protection of
the government have had their rev.
enues reduced, he said.
Senator Shipstead opened his ad-
dress by explaining that the federal
treasury, according to present fore
casts, will be about 100000, 900
short by the end of next June con-
trasting with number of years prior
to 1880, in which the government had
an annual surplus of income over
expenditures.
Distribution of Income.
'The main reason for the reduc-
ed income of the treasury is that
revenues of American citizens and
corporations and the foreign COM
merce of the country have suffered
great declines in the last two years.
1t may be said that the government
has lost its income because the
American people have lost their in
comes.
81 believe the people and there
fore their government have had their
incomes reduced because we have
pursued policies. public and private,
that have destroyed incomes. These
policies have brought on what we
call the depression. First are poll
cies that have resulted in unjust dis
tribution of national income.
From 1924 to 1880, agriculture
lost 40 per cent of its income and
labor in the manufacturing indus
tries lost 80 per cent of it's income,
while industry itself had an increase
in income, as reflected in increased
common stock dividends, of 70 per
cent. The losses of incomes by agri-
culture and labor affected the pur-
chasing power of 100000 people.
TWENTY-FIVE per cent of our popu-
lation are dependent upon agricul-
ture but receive only 10 per cent of
our national income. AS result of
this inequitable distribution, we had
dangerous concentration of wealth
in the hands of the few. In 1929, for
instance, 5O4 persons in the United
States had combined income of ST.
100000. They could have bought
all the cotton and wheat raised in
the United States in 1880.
