That order was Russia's solution Of
the depression. It was exactly typical
Of the Russian mind, typical Of the
Russian revolution, typical Of the deep.
Russian heart giving impact to the
blind momentum that is modern Rus
sian life.
Naturally the Russians would rather
buy this material from the United
States than from any other nation.
First, because our material, particularly
our machinery, is better made than
that of our competitors, and, second,
because America, not being a part of
Europe, is not related to Russia as
political rival and is not a part of the
European diplomatic intrigue which
the Russians feel Is aimed at Russia.
Moreover. Russia feels, and one finds
this feeling everywhere in Russia, that
America. being a new country, being a
land that has risen upon the machine,
can understand Russia and will survive
with Russia In the modern world and
the struggle of the coming century.
Wants Recognition.
Frankly, Russia wants recognition,
but only for purposes Of trade. Given
political recognition by the United
States, Russia can get American credit
for the machinery she needs and the
raw materials necessary to go forward
with the next step In the development
of Russian industrial life.
No one who sees modern Russia with
an open mind, even as casual traveller,
can doubt that If America would recog-
nize Russia, half billion dollars Of
Russian orders would Immediately ap-
pear on the desk of American industry.
Whatever American industrialistS may
think of Russian communism and Of the
Russian idea Of the distribution of
wealth, they cannot deny that American
recognition would speed up the wheels
of American industry.
But that Is not the only considera-
ton before America in weighing the
issue of recognition. Unquestionably,
American recognition would be worth
regime Is not in danger OF collapse, but
it would be greatly strengthened If it
could buy and sell in America upon
credit terms that would be the first
consequence of recognition.
Russia's present attitude toward
world revolution Is that world revo-
luton cannot be brought about by
Russian propaganda, but that Russia
succeeding in her communistic expert
ment can build up a workers state
which will be so attractive to the work
ing classes Of the world that out of
envy the working classes will demand

: for u. S.
BY WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE.

MOSCOW (By MaiD In modern
Russia the machine has taken the place
that religion had in old Russia. To-
day in Russia the will of God Is a
mechanistic process.
Recently Gorky wrote play describ-
ing the death of an atheist with de-
yout wife. She brought in priests and
all the paraphernalia of the church to
consecrate and sanctify her husbands s
passing. Gorky staged beautiful and
solemn scene. Beholding 1t. the mod
ern Russian audience burst into laugh
ter. In a recent play mother cries
out at the loss of her son. "Oh. my
God!" and the audience hoots with de-
light. God is comic relief.
On the other hand in recent film
which is taking Russia by storm, the
climax comes when. after a long fight
against heavy odds, the engineer.
lighting a cigarette, presses the lever
that first starts in motion the machine
that he has been building through a
year, a machine which will bring food
and comfort to millions. The audience
bursts into applause as the engineer
smiles and puffs at his cigarette while
watching the slow start and the rising
speed of the powerful machine.
Great Machines at Work.
All over Russia, from the Baltic to
the Pacific, great machines are turn
ing raw material into finished prod
ucts Machines that make other ma
chimes are rising all over the land, and
machines that make machines that
make machines are building every
where. The power of these machines
IS measured by the million horsepower,
and the impact of this tremendous
power keeps Russia moving; for the
most part moving forward
All around is chaos. Men are inept.
Scientists at cross purposes. Experts
engaged in acrimonious quarrels. But
the machinery moves. Russia is an iron
government It is the inexorable, re-
sistless momentum of 10000, 900 people
with common purpose-a purpose that
they cannot clearly voice and do not
always comprehend. No one knows ex-

actly what 1t is-this impulse behind
this momentum that Is moving Russia.
but what it is doing Is plain enough:
This vast momentum Of impulse OF
machinery, of aspiration and Of govern
ment Is moving one-Sixth OF the area
Of this globe and its people from feudal-
ism to the age of electricity. What
Europe and America have done in 800
years, Russia is trying to do In two
decades. Her old gods were too slow.
So she turned on the juice and made
new god who is working with MIL
lion cogs and levers and wheels and
literally is hurting Russia across the
ages into the modern world.
Process Has Injustices.
OF course there are injustices in the
process. Starvation-znass starvation
of the great hegira from the age OF
Ghengis Kahn, the Boyars ard the Ro-
manoffs into the complex civilization Of
the twentieth century. These ITO Rus
sian millions are rushing forward with
out stopping for magma charta or q
bill Of rights, or for any democratic
process or parliamentary form.
Naturally, in the onrush. hundreds Of
thousands are crushed, broken, asSaS-
sinated, trodden under foot and lost.
But the machine moves; the mechantS-
tic process is the will of God. So the
old, slow gods of the old Righteousness
and the old justice and the old loving
kindness furnish the comic relief which
snaps the taunt nerves Of these mad
Slavs and makes them crackle and rat
tie in ribald laughter at any mention
of the ancient forms Of faith.

ference in London in June stood LitW-
noff, Russian foreign minister. high
priest of the new faith, calling upon
his new god in the midst of delegates
from the 66 nations forming roughly
what Is called Christendom. The dele
gates were met to consider a way out
of the economic jungle into which the
world has wandered. They had phrases
and shiboleths, formulas, clauses, theo-
ries and reforms to suggest.
Litvinoff's Solution.
Litvinoff offered as his solution Of
the world depression to buy 81 ,000, ,000,-

LONG BEACH, Feb. a. U.P)-
Trial of William James (Curley)
Guy was in recess today until
Monday, when Mrs. Aloha Wan
derwell was scheduled to renew
her accusations that the young
Welsh adventurer sought revenge
against her late husband, Capt
Walter Wanderwell whom Guy is
accused of killing.
The crowded courtroom was
hushed as the blonde young widow
told a story of mutiny on the high
seas and a later atatck on Wan
derwell, who was shot to death
aboard his anchored schooner
Carma, on the night of Decem-
ber 5.
Major part of yesterdays ses-
sion was devoted to taking the
jury of nine men and three women
to the scene of the killing. The
jurors walked the creaking, wealth
erbeaten decks of the Carma, now
in drydock undergoing repairs at
Fish Harbor, and then we're taken
to the Pacific and Orient docks
where the former run runner was
moored cn the night cf the mur-
der.
The jurors poked about the aged
vessel, scanning the forward cabin
where Wanderwell was Shot as he
stood with his back turned to the
assassin. They peered curiouSly
through a screened portfolio in an
after cabin where four members of
the Carma's commonwealth crew
were seated when a stranger looked
inside and asked for Wanderwell.
At Guys preliminary hearing, three
of them identified the young Welsh
man as the stranger who had
spoken his inquiry through the
portfolio.
Shackled to a policeman, Guy
shook his head and smiled his re-
fusal to step up to the portfolio
while the jurors examined the af-
tereabin. Instead, he led them
to little used forward hatch
where the defense insists the slay-
er hid to ambush his victim.
Mrs. Wanderwell testified the mu-
tiny broke out while Guy and his
wife we're members of one of Wan

MORTICIANS IN
COURT ACTION
OVER BUSINESS

Recovery of property constitut-
ing an undertaking establishment
at Calexico and including the
Mountain Vitw cemetery is asked in
suit filed in superior court today
by A. R. Hens against H. F. Ar
mold.
Besides asking that the property
be turned back to him, Hens re-
quests appointment of a receiver.
The complaint was prepared by Err
nest R. Utley and A. c. Finney, at
torneys for Hens.
Hens charges that Arnold failed
to live up to the terms of a con-
tract by which he agreed to pur-
chase the property. The contract
provided, according to the COM
plant, that it would be void unless
Arnold paid $4,000 before January
81, 1888. Arnold has paid only $4,-
900, Hens alleges.
1t is further alleged in the COM
plant that Arnold has converted
to his own uses approximately
S29, 500 since 1923, in spite of an
agreement that he was to turn over
to Hens all income after deducting
expenses and $3.50 a month.

listing other statutory grounds, at
torneys for R. G. Fernandez today
filed in superior court notice of
intention to move for new trial in

the death of his daughter, Emma,
who was struck by Southern Pa
cific engine at the Main street in
tersection at Brawley several weeks
ago.
In the document filed today 1t is
charged that the jury which re-
turned q verdict in favor of the
company was led to believe Mrs.
Dolores Fernandez was a plaintiff
in the action, when in reality no
evidence was introduced that she
had been damaged
1t is also alleged that the fore
man of the jury requested a vote
on the question of whether the ac-
cident was unavoidable, and that
the jury did not vote on the prop
osition of whether the defendant
was liable.

REPORTER ON

District Attorney Elmer W.
Heald today announced the elimi-
nation of the position of shorthand
reporter in the district attorneys
office, directly affecting Mrs. Hazel
Livingston.
Mrs. Livingston probably will re-
main as reporter for the grand
jury and various justice courts of
Imperial Valley. Her elimination
as shorthand reporter in the dis
trict attorneys office will have no
economical effect, since she has
not charged the county for her
work in that connection for several
months, aside from the actual ex-
pense of stenography and compari-
son.
The district attorneys letter, ad-
dressed to the county clerk and
signed by the former. follows:
1.-THE grand jury of the county
of Imperial for the year 1882, and
the board of supervisors of the
county of Imperial, in preparing
the county government act (section
4247 of the political code) elimi-
mated from the district attorneys
office a shorthand reporter which
had previously been provided for in
said county government act, and
under the new county government
act there will be no shorthand re-
porter attached to the district at
torney's office, in accordance with
the aforesaid recommendation
This being the case the oath of
office on file in your department
signed by the shorthand reporter
will be cancelled by your depart
ment effective February l, 1888, and
the shorthand reporter will in ac-
cordance with statutory provisions
be taken care of in the manner
provided by law, but will not be
connected with the district attor-
ney's office from and after Feb

A|RMA|L PLEA
BY FAWCET7 I

In an interview today on the
subject of air mail service in I'm
perial Valley, H. w. Fawcett, man.
ager of the Coca Cola Bottling
Works and member of the city
council stated: Imperial Valley
and San Diego have 80 days in
which to prove that an actual need
for air mail service for these COM
munities exists. If in that time we
can build up our air mail pound
age to an amount which will war
rant continuation of the Southern
Air Mail route the service will pro-
badly be continued.
"It is the duty of the business
firms of Ell Centre and other val
ley cities to increase the air mail
during this month to an extent
which will prove that it is needed
here. While some firms and indi-
vidualS do not find that their busi-
ness requires this fast mail service,
to others it means a saving of
thousands of dollars annually be-
cause it cuts down time between
this community and eastern mar
kets. Anything that saves money
for the business houses of Ell Cen
tro should not be given up with
out fight. These business houses
use air mail because they know It's
value and it is up to the rest oi
the community to use more all
mail, not only to aid those who
need the service, but because one
never knows when the air mail SER
vice may be of vital Importance to
himself or his business.
ut took years of constant eff
fort on the part of the Ell Centre
Chamber of Commerce and other
civic organizations to obtain this
Southern Air Mail route and we
must not let it be taken away when
its continuation depends only upon
the determination of our people as
a whole to send more letters by
air mail daily"

Relates Attack
The widow, who became a vaude-
vile performer after her husband S
death, said the incident created
friction between Guy and Wander
well and was ended when Guy and
his wife left the party at Colon.
Mrs. Wanderwell said it was two
two years later that she again saw
Guy. One afternoon last July, she
said, she heard voices in an ad-
joining room and suddenly heard
her husband shout for help.
81 went into the room and saw
my husband standing with his back
to the window. He was arranging
his collar and tie. Guy stood in
front of him. In the same room
was Eddie De Larm, Eugene Bab-
bit and a man named Burzinski,
two men who had joined for an
other cruise my husband was pro-

Guy was living with De Larm, a
Glendale aviator, at the time of the
killing.
MY husband said Guy had asked
for money and when he refused
him, Guy grabbed the captain and
refused to let him either use the
telephone or leave the room. My
husband said Guy had attacked
him."
In previously admitting this in
cident, Guy had said the money
was due him because he had not
