The snail, the Burgundian snail,

Snail farms are as common In
France as poultry farms here. and

Berlin Letter
BY ERIC KEYSER
s<Sxa lDansS ctnfR f,nTrassA.uslRn

Berlin - OUP) Racial in
tegrity, the family, national proper
ty and preparedness, will be pro.
tected by the new German penal
code.
This has been indicated by the
Prussian Minister of Justice,
Hams KERR, in a memorandum
showing the important role Nazi
axioms are to play in future Ger
man Jurisprudence.
The memorandum does not rep
resent a draft of the coming penal
code. 1t merely was meant as a
compilation of suggestions.
Racial Integrity
Particularly extensive is the
section on protection of racial in
tegrity. 1t is suggested to punish:
as treason to the race" the mix
ing of blood between German and
members of "alien races" Pun
ishment is to be administered to
both perpetrators.
'Violation of the honor Of the
race" according to the ministers
suggestion, is another punishable
offense. It consists of q Germans
appearance In public with "a
member of a colored race" and his
behavior in such a way ''as to In
suit the sentiment Of the German
people,"
Family life is to be protected
through the severe punishment oi
marriage swindle, the defamation
of maternity (this apparently in,
cludes advocacy of birth controi)
as well as the defamation of this
institutions of marriage and be-
trothal.
National Property Protection
For q better protection OF ma
tional property mendicancy ant
vagrancy are to be punished Sc
yerely, as also Is the refusal u
accept work, or the attempt u
shirk the compulsory labor service
Punishable also Is any aSemp
to bring about uisintegration o

With prohibition left but one more month
of life it seems strange to read that coast
guard vessel and rum-runner engaged in a
desperate sea battle this week. In fact, the
smugglers boat was sunk, while the gov
eminent ship was badly damaged. This
means evidently resumption of rum-run-
ming activities in Long Island. Perhaps it's
last desperate effort by illicit liquor in
terests to cash in before repeal comes. If
SO, Uncle Sam seems. to be prepared for it.
We wonder just what will happen to the
expensive and modern equipped boats that
rum runners have been using of recent years.
Surely with liquor available at fair prices
their business will sink to the bottom of
the ocean. Somebody's going to be able to
buy few speed boats at bargain rates.

Deputy Attorney General Averills opin-
ion that state banks and trust companies
may not join the Federal Reserve system is
going to be given close examination by
the Senate banking and currency committee.
Senator Lonergan called it to the attention
of the chairman of the committee, Senator
Fletcher, democrat of Florida Some COM
ment is certainly to be forthcoming, The
ruling given by the Attorney Generals office
prevents banks, mentioned specifically by
him, accepting the deposit insurance require
ments now fostered by the federal govern
ment. To accept them means joining the
Federal Reserve system, SO both seem pro-
hibited unless the ruling is disregarded. And
that doesn't seem likely.

penditures amount to only $4,000.
The democrats polled 1900 votes
and the republicans 5000. Thus,
the republicans have the consola-
ton of feeling that they got the
most for their money-four votes
for each dollar against IN for each
democratic dollar.
The election was no sooner over
than reports began to be circulat-
ed of an administrator movement
to restore half of the municipal
employees salary cuts. Judging by
their contributions to the town
committee, they need an increase
IL they are to balance their per-
sonal budgets.

MEADOW BASKET

(By Anne Young in The New York Times)
The meadow is a basket
Close wrought of living green.
The quiet hand that hung it up
For me Is nowhere seen.
Yet one hath ranged the Vastly morn
With ffeetness of lover
To pluck the clouds that whitley blow
The still winds bending over.
And stemless. rootless, heaped Herewith
That basket green for me-
Lilies of vapor, timeless pledge
or ali eternity.

states enjoyed respite from the frigid
temperatures OF last week.
The high pressure area centered

The storm-torn east welcomed a
promise Of relief Saturday from the
record-breaking cold that played havoc
with shipping off the northeast coast
and added at least q score Of deaths
to the 100 who died in the northern
states earlier in the week.
Upstate New York and New Eng

NelU Soviet Fiue- Year Plan
To DlUQrf Pre-WQr OufDuf
Molotof Kuibyshev Sc he m .
Would Treble Production
Under Last Plan

Moscow. Dec. 30.-R-A new five.
year plan, intended to make Russia
self-reliant for all the necessities Of
life, was made public to the people
OF the Soviet Saturday.
BY the end of 1897, according tt
the plan, the Soviet Union is to near
y triple her production over the fig.
IRE reached in 1882. when the frs,
flve-year plan was brought to close
The proposed production total OF
about $5l,0OO0O0,0OO annually a,
nominal values would be equal &c
nine times the Russian production
before the war.
The plan, published by the Soviet
piess. is that submitted by Vyaches-
aft Molotoff. president of the coun-
Gil OF commissars, and v. v. Kuiby-
shev, president of the supreme coun-
Gil OF national economy.
The plan was rendered by the two
officials to the political bureau which
accepted 1t and now will offer it to
the 18th Communist party congress
Jan. 10.
The extent Of the enterprises which
would be realized under this program
makes the second five-year plan
dwarf the first, which. at the time
Of its proposal, was considered pi-
gantic beyond the possibility OF
achievement in an industrially- back.
ward country.
The new plan fixes the volume Of
production in 1897 at 1903 900 600, 900
rubles (nominally a ruble is worth
about 50 cents as compared with a.
GOO, 100000 rubles at the end OF 1882
with the completion Of the first five
year plan.
The proposed figure, based on the
prices of l926-27, would be equal to
nine times the production before the
war.
An impetus is planned in the in
crease Of the production OF consum-
ers' goods, following up the tendency
OF last year to pay more attention to
the immediate needs Of the popula-
ton.
The average yearly rise in such
goods is scheduled at % per cent as
compared with II per cent annually
under the first five-year plan.
However, the output Of machinery
and other means Of production is
scheduled to reach the same percent
age Of increase over the is per cent
OF the first plan.
