The Russian Song Changes

As long as things were com ing nice and notwithstanding of course, as long as the Amer ican public had bankrolls of which they could be easily re- lieved by slick schemes-Wall Street frowned upon even a suggestion of anything good coming out of Russia. The merest hint that the good old U.S.A. might do we'll to resume trade relations with the Soviets sent the high priests of finance into a frenzy of opposition and cau,s ed banker controlled Washington to raise mortified hands at the very thought of even speaking to nation which supposedly was intent on abolishing High Finance and destroying the thrice bles- sed pursuit of plundering the stupid masses of their money and labor.
 But now it appears that plut- ocracy's Song of Hate has changed to a more gentle strain, in which the hope of glittering profits forms the sweet refrain. With the Amer ican public so badly deflated- or should we say plundered?- that wealthy men of former days have become bankrupts and beggars and most of the people have nothing of value left from which they can be separated, the profits of the Wall Street money-changers are pretty slim; hence Presi- dent Roosevelt's sensible pro- posal to end what he has termed "the abnormal relations between Russia and the United States" is being received with welcome by the big financiers. Indeed, the press reports tell Us that some of the Wall Street bankers are already leasing credit for increasing sales to the Soviets," although the question of trade resumption is not yet definitely settled.
 From which it appears that the lure of big interest from loaned millions has quite over- come the lofty-minded opposi- tion to dealing with such dis reputable and disturbing scala wags as the bewhiskered and ladical-minded moujiks-espe- cially as the home people, be- ing mostly broke, can no longer be plucked by means of stock

VERSATILE MR.. REVERE

Paul Revere is known to fame chiefly
because of his historic ride from Boston
to arouse the minute men" on the night
of April IL, TITS, before the engagement
with the British at Lexington and Concord.
But aside from this notable exploit, he
was an uncommonly active and versatile
citizen.
He had taken part in the Boston Tea
Party, and became lieutenant-colonel
during the Revolution, after serving as a
lieutenant Of artillery in the Crown Point
expedition of 1856, during the French and
Indian War
In civil life he displayed variety of
talents which a recent biographer thinks
entities him to be known as Americas first
lack of all trades" He was goldsmith,
a copper roller a dentist, an engraver, a
powder manufacturer, maker of picture
frames, a hardware merchant, and, de-
plorable as it may seem, seller of hard
liquor.
Documents recently made public by
his great-grandson include bills of lading
showing that Paul Revere sold consign-
ment of rum at GO cents gallon, also gin
at proportionately low figure. This same
great-grandson now heads copper busi-
ness founded by his distinguished ancestor,
which still bears the name of Revere, in
Boston.
But Revere's chief pride seems to have
been in his dental skill. and he once sent a
circular to prospective clients. which would
be considered highly unethical today, in
which among other things he said refer
ring to human teeth: He fixes them in
such manner that they are not only an
ornament, but of real use In speaking and
eating"
Longfellow immortalized Paul Re-
vere's ride, but he didn't tell the whole
story.

CLOUDS OVER CUBA
Boston Globe)

None who has watched the news from
Cuba during the past year, and especially
during the past three weeks, is unaware
that the situation in that troubled republic
is rapidly preparing an explosion.
Several of the most competent news
papers in the United States have recently
sent special correspondents to the island
to make surveys. The reports are uni
formly grave. Censorship Of all the Cuban
domestic press, of all incoming papers
from abroad and of all outgoing cables has
made such expedients in news collection
necessary. The investigators, returning
with their material, have eluded this effort
to throttle the news by waiting till they
reached home before preparing their
copy.
Here is the substance of their find
ings: A reign of terror is operating under
the direction of President Machado. Poll
tical assassinations of opponents are the
order of the day. Criminals let loose from
the jails have been given authority to in
dom of press, assembly and petition is
dead. The Supreme Court, which opposed
Machados DEGREES, has been reOrganized
and brought under his thumb. Secret
police infest the island. Misery is almost
universal and the rumbles of approaching
revolt are swelling into diapason of
warning which the Machado regime thinks
to answer by redoubling it's barbarities.
The question whether the United
States should intervene in this situation
has been lately discussed. Under the
Plat Amendment, doubtless, intervention
is possible But intervention in Cuba is a
course of doubtful wisdom at best. It
would create new difficulties throughout
Latin America and would revive policies
better never attempted.
If intervention is to be rejected, how
overland let us hope it will be-then it
should be understood, alike by Washing
ton and by Senior Machado, that it will not
be available to him as an escape if and
when the storm breaks over his govern
ment. By staying out of Cuba now our
government is strengthening it's policy of
letting Latin American States formulate
and support such governments as they are
willing to accept. When they are no longer
willing to support Machado it should be
their unembarrassed right, regardless of
pressures here, to demolish him and all he
represents and to institute a regime more
in keeping with Cuba's ideals.

TUNIC SOLVES MANY
A DRESS PROBLEM

One suspects that the introduction,
or rather the re-entry of the tunic at
this time is one of the kindly ges.
lures fashion is making to those of us
who must make our last years dresses
serve another year. The tunic is a
direct answer to the often perplexing
question of how to lengthen skirt
especially since many of the really
smart tunics are quite as long as
skirts used to be.
Not. of course, that every tunic
dress is leftover by any means, any
more that every dress with contrast
ing sleeves is one that has been re-
modelled The current ruling on
sleeves is that they should either con-
trast or do something to attract atten-
ion-and most of them do.
Fashion. being so completely con.
cerned in preserving the top-heavy
silhouette. naturally has given up dec
Grating skirts and is concentrating on
above-the-belt trimmings. The excep-
tion to this is the tunic frock. which
is likely as not. bordered at its tunic

1t was eight o'clock in the gray No

'He woke up in commissions at mid

and saw Mary's light. She was all
alone with him till then. We've done

David raised the child's eyelids to
look at the pupils and felt his pulse
while Paul was speaking. He bent
over. listening intently to the little
heart. Then he raised his head.

equal brevity.
A few minutes later in the blessed
sense of security that had come over
her, Mary asked for Sylvia.
''She didn't get her twins, of

"She's talked of nothing else for
months"
David's face contracted, and Mary
noticed for the first time that he
looked strangely old and very, very
tired.

There was another long wait, and
