was intolerant of influences which obscured his

of American village life. of mill people at work
and play of old walls and quiet canals, OF
dream cities built in his own studio, were so
many expressions of his dominant mood Wnlch
was unquestionably constrained and melancholy
so that inevitably the harmonies were pitched
in minor key. In few of his small can

of something classic applied to the lives OF
the plain people of his own environment. l

widely evident. This grass which is particu-
larly fattening to live stock, grows in such a
heavy mat weeds are unable to get foothold.

The power resources of the valley are great.
Engineers believe that enough electricity can
be obtained from the stream running through
the valley to fill all the needs of Costa Rica
for century to come.
Lack of transportation is blamed for the fall
ure of the valley to prosper. The building OF
adequate highways which would permit the
marketing of the products of the valley would
be a great boon to the people living in the
area and to the settlers who would no doubt,
be quick to seek out the fertile acres. Lying
close to the Panama border, Ell General would
find shipment to foreign markets would also
be easily carried on when the highways are
constructed

A N agricultural gold mine, high above sea
level, but plentifully supplied with water
not only for agricultural, but for water power
purposes, awaits only the magic touch of the
engineer to open it TO great prosperity. The
area in question is in valley known as Eel
General lying high in the mountains of Costa
Rica and located on the route of the proposed
Inter American Highway to reach from Pan
ANA to the United States.
Engineers who have visited the valley, which
varies in elevation from $500 to 5000 feet, de-
clare that it is inhabited only by Indians who
often face starvation while living in the midst
of potential plenty. Their meager agricultural
activities often fail to meet their needs, al
though if properly exploited, the valley Is be-
leved capable of supporting 100000 people.
This virgin territory has one immense forest
of white oak, one of the most valuable of hard
woods, SO broad that it requires days journey
on horseback to cross the valley in which it
is located The unusual condition in which
this wood is found in semi-tropic country Is
due to the elevation Of the valley.

THIS exhibition is sponsored by the Richmond
! Academy of Arts a direct descendant OF
an organization established Cider French pat
ronage in 1785 and therefore perhaps the earh-
est of its kind in America. The Anderson Gal
leries are converted stable, which stands back
of an old residence now occupied by the ex-
tension department of William and Mary Col
lege. 1t is not only well adapted for the
purpose, but picturesquely located. In TINS

Citations of Richmond were present, with Dean

in Richmond has lately been greatly stlmu-
lated by the announcement of gift OF $lOO,OoO
from Judge John Barton Payne of this city
for an art museum building, to be erected

THE Phillips Memorial Gallery calls attention
to the fact that it has reserved two galleries
for changing group exhibitions by local paint
ers. These galleries are primarily for the bene-
fit of the artists, allowing them to put their
work before the epublic. but they also offer to
the public an opportunity to purchase fine
paintings and drawings at low prices. The
work of amateurs as well as Of professionals
will be shown in these galleries when it seems
to have distinction of design, color and view
point. 1t would hardly seem necessary to urge
local artists to make use Of this opportunity,
but so the intention is worded. The selec-
ton of works to be shown in these galleries
is made by the gallery staff, and inquiries IN
regard thereto should be addressed to G. Law
Watkins, director of education, Phillips Memo
rial Gallery.
IN further support of this program to encour-
! age and make known the work of local
artists, the Phillips Memorial Gallery is pre-
senting at the present time an exhibition Of
the work of a local woman painter, who has
not heretofore held one-man show. This

BUILDING SOCIALISM IN THE U. S. S. r.
Currency Expands in
USSR AS Turnover of
Commodities Increase

Soviet currency increased from
5,400, 100000 on July 1st, to 100000
900 on September 1st, according to a
dispatch to the New York Times.
The gold reserve increased cores
pondingly during the same month so
that the ration remained at 10 per
cent of the total currency in circu-
lation.
The Times correspondent admits
that the increase is not step toward
initiation. He admits, moreover, that
the fundamental reason for the in
crease is that "the new construction
and industrialization program far
from slackening is being pushed with
redoubled energy throughout the
country"
Although there is a shortage of
consumption commodities, the total
commodities in circulation are stead
lily increasing as characterization re-
quire increased production and cir
culaiton of productive commodities,
machines, etc.

BOLIVIA WAR Is
US. CONTROLLED
Order New Advance in
Chaco Region

Alleging that Bolivian outposts in
the disputed Gran Chaco region were
attacked yesterday by Paraguayan
patrols, the Bolivian General Staff
has ordered a fresh advance by its
troops, ostensibly in pursuit Of the
enemy patrols"
Both governments continue to push
their war moves under the secret
supervision of American and British
imperialists whose fierce rivalry for
markets and control of natural re-
sources is the real cause of the pres
ent armed clash between the two
semi colonial South American coun-
tries. The war policy of the b.
livian Government is dictated by the
Guggenheim and Standard Oil in
terests which chiefly dominate Boil
Wan economy, and are now using
their Bolivian puppet government in
the fight against the British for con-
troll of the exploitation Of the Chaco
region.
The Paraguayan Government, on
the other hand, is being secretly sup
ported by the British who stand to
lose out in the Gran Chaco if that
region passes over to Bolivia. Not
content with sponsoring civil war be-
tween their puppets in Brazil and
other American countries, the
two imperialist rivals are now un-
leashing a war between Bolivia and
Paraguay which will possibly involve
other South American countries, if
not the imperialist powers themselves
in open conflict.

HUNGER MARCH
IS PLANNED IN
SCRANTON FIELD
Unemployed Miners to
Help Employed Fight
Wage Cut

SCRANTON, Pa, September 8. -
A meeting of delegates of the Unem-
ployed Councils of Lackawanna
County, was held here Sunday to
discuss the next steps in the strug-
gle for the immediate needs of the
unemployed workers in the county.
Thirty-fve delegates attended, re-
presenting the Unemployed Councils
of Scranton, Taylor, Old Forg, Dick
son City, Olyphant, Archibald, Ey-
non, Mayfield and Jessup. After the
main report, made by Joe Dougher,
secretary of the Lackawanna IN
employed Councils, a lively discussion
too kplace IA the course of which re-
ports wera made on the conditions
of the unemployed in the various
cities. The proposal recently ad-
vanced by government officials to
use the relief funds for road build
ing was classed by the delegates as
forced labor in the>county.
A resolution was adopted embody-
ing the main demands for the un-
employed and part-time employed.
The conference instructed the new
ly elected county executive commit
tee to take steps to organize a coun-
ty hunger march to the county seat.
Another resolution adopted deals
with the 20 percent wage cut which
the coal operators intend to put over
upon the employed and part time
miners. This resolution pledges the
unemployed councils to organize the
unemployed of this county in a soli-
darity struggle with the employed
against the wage cut.
