Military Preparations
Under the caption, Preparation of
the Interventionist Front in the Near
East" the paper points out that
Great Britain and France are streng-
thening their strategic positions at
POINTS in Mesopotamia, Persia, Al
ghanistan and other countries direct
ly bordering the Soviet Union.
In the military plans of Great
Fritain and France" it declares
"Nesopotania, Persia, Afghanistan
and Sintzian figure as a huge stra-
tegic ground for attacking our Sow
let Union. Tie sharpening contra
dictions between Great Britain and
France under the influence of the
crisis obliges the latter to turn its
face to the East. This explains the
sctivization of French imperialism
in Mesopotamis, in Persia, and part
" in Afghanistan.
French Stretching Feelers
French imperialism cannot calm
~ watch how Great Britain. build
ing a Jaffa-Bagdsd railway, tries to
bind its colonies with bands of iron,
drawing into its sphere of railroad
influence Persia and Afghanistan."
zaria Vostoka refers to an I'M
pending military-technical conven-
ton between France and Persia and
characterizes the move as a French
attempt to secure for itself a more
favorable position as compared with
Great Britain in case Of an attack
On the Soviet Union" French i'm
perialism, it added, is stretching
feelers to the Soviet frontiers from
that direction.
Great Britain it continues, Gin
tends to utilize Persian territory for
an attack on the Soviet Union even
should the Persian Government MOI
wish it. Persian territory. as the
plans Of British imperialism have
often emphasized, is included toge-
Their with Iraq in a united strategic
base in the Near and Middle East.
In speaking of using Persian soil for
action against us, British imperial
lists make no distinction between
independent Iraq where they are
complete masters, and Persia, which
is not under British control.
Danger of Anti-U.S.S.R. War
"The danger of an attack on our
country does not weaken but streng-
then in connection with the world
economic crisis. The imperialists,
preparing for an anti-Soviet war, are
in hurry to secure for themselves
in due time important points of ap-
proach to the Soviet borders and to
lay the necessary railroad lines"

tx AMERADSCHAFT" CONTINUES
SECOND WEEK AT ACME

"Kameradschaft" or "Conlrade-
ship" G. w. Pabst's powerful film
epic of the mines, now playing at
the Acme Theatre, due to the crowds,
will be held over a second week. This
is the first showing at popular prices.
This film is based on the mine dis
aster. which occurred in 1906 in coal
mine on the Franco German border,
when half of the property lay on the
German side of the frontier and the
other half was owned and manned
by the French. The story has been
transferred by G. w. Pabst to the
year of 1919, after the world war,
thus intensifying the drama by
bringing together again in the midst
of industrial dangers, miners of two
nationalities who had been set a.
gainst each other by the ruling class
in the World War.
'Kameradschaft" has large cast

Who Was

BECKY THATCHER
BY Louise M. Comstock

N|HEN that "red-handed chief OF
w the Black Avengers of the Span
lsh Man," more commonly known to
readers of Mark Twain as Tom Saw
yer, INDUCED in moments of un-plrate
like tenderness. little Becky Thatcher.
Toms schoolmate and sworn sweet
heart, was the cause. Thus the great
American humorst immortalized a
love of his own youth when little Sam
Clemens courted Laura Hawkins, who
lived just down the street from him
in Hannibal, Mo.
Out of their own school days came
much of the similar material in Tom
Sawyer" The schoolmaster was Mr..
Cross, for whom Sam composed an
elegant couplet:
Gross by name, and cross by nature,
Cross jumped over an Irish potater.
From him Sam once actually did ac-
cept punishment for something Laura
had done.
Sam Clemens left Hannibal at the
age of eighteen, and Laura married
and became Mrs. Frazier, went to live
at Palmyra Mo-, and enjoyed at least
one adventure that never got into
book During the Civil war her hus-
band, an outspoken Secessonist, was
forced into hiding from Union troops
commissioned to capture and silence
him. With woman's instinct for the
right things to do, Laura during her
husbands absence invited the Union
commander, Gen. John Mcneil, to din
ner and filled him full of southern
cooking and flattery. Some time later
when her husband had been captured
and condemned to DEATH she made
personal plea for his life. which WAS
granted by her former guest!
