It is not the heroic struggle for
the carrying out of the Five-Year

your capitalist journalist colleagues
declared doomed to failure, but which
actually strengthened the Soviet
Union as the fortress of the world
proletarian revolution, and made the
Soviet Union independent of the

The American press takes its cue
from Trotzky. TO mention one rep
resentative voice, Walter Lippman
who states; president Roosevelt is

fused to recognize. The decisive diff

the victory Of Stain and his doctrine
OF Socialism in single country,
over Trotzky and those who hold the
doctrine that Communism cannot
succeed In Russia unless there is a
world revolution it is the change
in Russian Policy, now apparently
established and consolidated, that
removes the only obstacle that there
has ever been to the recognition Of
Russia"
IT is not a change OF policy on the

it Is a Change in Russian policy"

$50 DEATH FEE,

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-Confes-
sions of alleged murderers, who got
$50 to $50 each for their services,

James M. Barrett's part of Bronx
County Court. The jury is hear
ing evidence against four men
charged with killing Michael
Malloy, a derelict stationary en-
gineer, for $1,788 insurance they
had placed on his life.
The defendants are Daniel

Francis Pasqua, "a, and Anthony
Marino, q. District Attorney
Foley has accused them of get

The alleged confessions were
attributed to Marino, Kreisberg
and Murphy. All said threats OF
death from a gunman, Tough
Tony Bastone, who since has
been slain, kept them in the plot.
Marino was reputed to have said
that Pasqua originated the plan,
got an insurance agent, paid the
premium and got Murphy to pose
as Malloy's brother in the ca
pacity of beneficiary. According
to the statement he got $50 of the
insurance which the gang col

a ELEPHANTS
TUMMY ACHE

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Oct. 13
,UN.S0.-The collie little Jimmy
got from eating green apples
never was like this tummy ache.
Take it from the exhausted
caretakers who nursed IA ele-
plants of the Barnum and Bailey
circus through a siege of NAL de
midriff last night.
And the roustaboutS whose
aching muscles today were a
painful reminder that man can't
take it like elephants when it
comes time to break up the show
and move on to the next one
night stand.
Big Job For Doctors
Fourteen Of the herd of so
elephants went down with a seige
Of collie yesterday a few hours
after they were fed. For the
first time in years the show had
to go on with its stricken star
performers missing. Trumpeting
with pain, the elephants re-
mained in their canvas stables
while the veterinarians employed
heroic methods to relieve their
agony.
Soothing syrup by the bucket
full was administered to the Suf-
fering patients after hasty call
cleared out the stocks of most of
the drug stores in town.
"JUST LIKE BABIES"
"They were just like babies
with the cOlic-I couldn't stand
to see them suffer-"
So said a grizzled caretaker
with the build of a heavyweight
wrestler, who stayed up all night
nursing his charges
Circus officials first thought
the elephants had been poisoned
but inspection of the food and
water failed to reveal any troce.
It was put down to just an. old
fashioned attack of infant collie.

With still another member Of

Here and There
In the Realm Of
Broadcastine
BY STANLEY BIGELOW

From the publicity material
which has been furnished in re.
cent days it would appear that
radio folks are quite concerned
about what Friday the 18th, to.
day, may bring.
The chances are that they will
go through with their days jobs
even as you and I.
Artistic temperament, peculiar.
tiles, individual characteristics dis
tinguish the radio folk just as
they do persons in other profes-
sions or walks of life, if the word
of their representatives are to be
taken at all seriously in the day
to day output.
This is the second Friday, the
thirteenth, to occur in the cur
rent year. Seems, from this dis
tance from last January, the date
of the other "unlucky day." that
the grist Of news was just about
as usual.

The first criminal to be exc

in the electric chair at the

murder of Policeman Joseph

Cohen appeared calm, but
wide-eyed and puzzled as he
walked to the death chair at
1905 a. m.
An eleventh-hour appeal to
Gov. Henry Horner failed to
win a stay of execution. Gov
ernor Horner announced that
he had denied stays to both
Cohen and Ross King, another
