 Although there was virtually no wind, the flames spread through the reservation with great rapidity. An hour after the blast the heat was so intense that firemen could not approach close enough to battle the blaze effectively, and the full extent of damage could not be as- certained.
 The laborers whose names were put on the danger list at St Anne's hospital were:
 Christopher Aquiar, 49, North Tiverton, multiple burns.
 Frank Aquiar, AZ, his brother, North Tiverton, fractured femur and possible broken spine and ribs.
 Manuel Luiz, 39, North Tiverton, fractured spine, lacerated skull and possible skull fracture.

 I speak for those less fortunate disabled veterans, who are in need of relief, of this advice and assls- tance through the D. A. V. but who themselves are inarticulate.

This explains the American attitude
in originally refusing to recognize the
Soviet government of Russia. 1t was be-
lieved. and rightly, that the government
was one of terror, representing only the
smallest fraction of the people. Because
of this it was commonly said that the
Soviet would not last more than few
months. The United States, like the
rest of the world, felt that recognition
would only prolong the life of the Soviet
and it would make infinitely more diff

tive government which must shortly
succeed. There is no doubt that the
red terror, the wholesale slaughter of
the more intelligent classes. created
throughout the United States a moral
repugnance which in the popular mind
made refusal to recognize those respon-

TT MAY be said as a general prin-
ciple that recognition of new
government by the United States
i depends on the ability of that gov
ernment to maintain order at home
and on its professed willingness to full
fill its international obligations. These
two criteria for recognition seem both
useful and necessary. The hasty recog-
milton of revolutionary government,
which may represent the will of only a
small minority of the people of q coun-
try, may give such government an
undue lease of life and result in pro-
longing civil disturbances. Unless a
