RECOGNITION
BY TR0TSKY

NEW YORK, Oct. 26. Wp) = If
America recognizes Soviet Russia it
will not be recognition of the red
bugaboo that a few years ago
seemed bent upon communizing the
capitalistic world. but of a bureau
cratic government with safe and
conservative foreign policy, Leon
Trotsky, former red leader indicat-
ed in an article for the current
New Republic, published today.
The ruling status of Russia has
been completely changed since his
OWN expulsion, Trotsky wrote.
"What formerly composed the es-
Sence of Soviety policy has now be-
come a harmless ritual" he said.
The Soviet government and the
third international now inhabit
different planes.
Trotsky claimed the international
policies of the Soviet had been
transformed from International
revolutionary policies into conserv-
ative ones. Russia is seeking with
might and main to ensure internal
security against risk of wars or
revolutions.
He asserted that the present
leaders are not prepared to make
sacrifices for communism in other
countries and do not hesitate to
take action which damages work.

Pontiac Sales
Sho.U Increase

Pontiac, the largest selling
straight eight in the world, contin-
les in October the rapid sales pace
which already has gained for it the
honor of fourth position at the 1884
national automobile shows in New
York and Chicago.
The drawing for display position
at the shows is conducted by The
national Automobile Chamber of
Commerce on the basis of Wholesale
dollar volume of business done by
the member companies between July
!. 1882, and June 80, 1888. Pontiac,
which stood fifth at the last ma
tional shows, now is exceeded in
dollar volume by the products of
only three other member companies
in the NAAC.
According to R. K. White, safes
manager, Pontiac sales during the
first 10 days of October exceeded
The same 10 days of 1882 by more
than 1876 PER cent, bringing nation
al retail deliveries to date in 1888

FORD TOLOSE
OPPORTUNITY
ON ARMY BIDS

WASHINGTON, Oct. &c. (U.P) -
Henry Ford today stood to lose
valuable government contracts be-
cause of his persistent policy of ig-
noring NRA.
War department officials pre-
pairing to place orders for $10,000,-
900 of army motorization equip
ment disclosed that none of the
orders would go to Ford SO long as
he does not display the blue eagle.
Ford officials in Dearborn, Mich,
said their dealers had submitted
low bids for a large part of the
equipment.
The auto code is held by NRA to
apply to Ford even though he did
not sign it and officials say he is
observing its terms. Nevertheless,
he must sign a certificate of COM
pliance before he can display the
eagle.
Ford. always a foe of govern
ment interference in business, ig-
nored NRA from the first. He did
not sign the temporary blue eagle
agreement. He declined to partici-
pate in formulation of the perma-
nent automobile code. He has been
extremely cool toward the national
labor board.

supervisor, Elmer Heald, district at

Rose Last Speaker
Their remarks were very similar
in nature, pointing out the meaning
of the occasion which had brought
SO many persons together and the
advantages which will accrue to
ranchers and others living in the
valley from the operation of the
canal.
Mark Rose was the last speaker
on the program. He reviewed the
struggle which had been gone
through for SO many years to OBJ
tain the canal. Now that it is almost
an accomplished fact he warned
his listeners not to forget that other
phases of the project must not be
overlooked. Power for the valley,
controlled by the valley, is the next
thing which must be fought for, he
said.
He thanked those who had work
ed for the canal and in pointing OUT
the advantages which it will bring
said that it will mean the end of
the silt problem which has cost the
valley so much money in the past
and it will free valley water users
from the necessity of submitting to
Mexican domination in that matter
At the conclusion of his speech he
was presented large bouquet OF
flowers.
The speechmaking ended, the Gel
ebrators were entertained by dane
ing and further band concerts and
it was early this morning when the
last Holtville guest Wended his way
home. weary but happy.
Both last night and this morning
remarks were heard that this cele-
bration was the greatest turnout
ever to take place in the valley. Fur
thermore it was the most represen-
tative valley gathering ever held as
visitors from all sections and corners
of the county converged on Holtville
to join their praises to thos eff fel-
low valleyiteS in proclaiming an
event the significance of which is
truly unparalleled in the history OF
Imperial Valley.

The Washington times., 1933-01-26

Figures for the second half ac-
curately reflect the degree of c.
us fight and fire. The Cardi-
mails tossed the ball 26 times at
Maryland's basket and registered
points with seven of them. c. U.
scored twice out Of two tries on
free throws. Maryland, despite
all its GOODNESS and cleverness.
had only six tries at the basket
and registered with only one.
The Old Liners had five free
tries and scored with three.
One Single Success
In the extra period C. U. four
times tried for field goals, and
scored with one; but that single
success brought the two all-impor-
tant points to the Cards. C. u.
added one point out of one try
from the foul line. Maryland
had only one try for field goal,
and missed it. The Old Liners,
however, scored one point out Of
two tries from the foul line.
It was a great game, and it
seems inconceivable that even one
of the 1900 spectators left c. us
gym without learning the great
spiritual lessons Of intercollegiate
competition.
The Washington times., 1933-01-26

At the end of As minutes, con-
stitutingsa full game and an extra
five-minute period, the Cardinals
of Catholic University were re-
turned winners over the Old
Liners Of Maryland, s29 to q.
It was fighting, fiery c. U.
pitted against cool, clever Mary
land, with fight and fire winning
by q nose.
Another Chapter
Today, Catholic University's
&c" Club, an organization created
by athletes and former athletes
Of the Cardinal, has another
chapter to add to the many al
ready in the book of c. u. tradi-
tions. And, well may this chapter
stand near the top, for Cardinal
players last night won because
Of a determination which brooks
of no failure.
Strategy will accomplish much,
and last night Maryland had the
strategy. However, the c. U. ira
dition, to win under adverse con-
ditions, sent the Cardinals on the
floor to play over their heads.
Maryland's team appealed to this
observer as superior to c. us.
The final count indicates that
there is, indeed, spiritual value
in intercollegiate competition.
It is interesting to study an
analysis Of last nights contest.
Remarkable Exhibition
Maryland, playing perfect bas.
ketball, scored 10 points with
her first five shots at the C. u.
basket. Maryland also scored
three more points by her first
free throws. This exhibition Of
perfection of play by the Old
Liners was remarkable, and it
brought temporary notions of an
overwhelming defeat for. C. u.
In the first half, Maryland
players IL times tried for field
goals and eight times were sue
cesSful. The Old Liners, in the
same period, tried seven free
throws and scored with five. C.
u, on the other hand, tried q
shots at the basket from the field
in the first half, scoring with
only four. The Cardinals regis
tered two points out of three
tries from the foul line. The half
ended with Maryland in the
aScendancy, 81 to 10.
