The Price of Recognition.

In Mondays Star there was published
symposium representing the views of
thirty-one United States Senators on
the subject of the diplomatic recogni-
ton of Soviet Russia by the American
Government. The symposium was un-
dertaken because of what is described
as the virtual certainty that recogni-
ton will be considered seriously during
the Roosevelt administration" Twenty
Senators declined to commit them
selves. Twenty-Five went definitely on
record in favor of recognition nine ex-
pressed opposition, some with reser-
vations.
Senators King, Democrat, Of Utah
and Vandenberg, Republican, Of Michi-
gan go straight to the point of the
United States basic refusal to engage
In official intercourse with Soviet
Russia. That point is the Communist
governments stubborn and consistent
unwillingness to pledge itself to abstain
from subversive propaganda in this
country. Senator King, when he visited
Moscow four or five years ago, told
stain and the rest" that if they
would disassociate propaganda of the
Third International from their gov.
eminent, and would confine govern
ment to legitimate governmental activ'
tiles. Mr.. King would Recommend
recognition at Washington. AThey SAX
they would not do this-that TIT

IDENTIFY and consistently upon the sage
advice Of THIS woman, whose wisdom
was no doubt softened and jrradiated
by a true womanly intuition, which
flies to its goal, where men grope and
crawl on the surface of things" With
the thought that 1.-The world of men
need not yet despair of another golden
age Of the great Matriarchs," the
State declares: They might give to
the world, these women, last at the
cross and first at the sepucher, what
and dictators have not been able to
give - tranquility, charity, neighborli-
ness and contentment"
"Her extraordinary abilities, her de-
votion to public service, unrequited and
unsung," states the Rochester Times
Union, make her death not only a
crushing blow to her many friends, but
q real loss to the people of this State.
Unquestionably she will go down in
history as the force behind the social
program Of far-sighted legislation char
acteriStic Of the administrations of Al
fred E. Smith. While Mrs. Moskowitz
always retorted to those who spoke of
her influence with the former Governor,
that he was well able to do his own
thinking, there Is little doubt that much
OF her thinking as well found its way
into the statute books. 1t is safe to
say no woman In recent years in this
state has exercised so much influence
upon the course Of legislation-and 1t
was invariably a happy influence"
y n
Referring to the records Of other
able political advisers. the New York
Herald Tribune remarks. ITO what ex-
tent did this woman. of whom Mr..
Smith was to say that she had the
greatest brain possessed by ANYBODY he
knew mold his career? This much Is
certain. Alfred E. Smith was a Tam
many politician who had shown hints
OF br1lliance in the State Assembly:
MRS. Moskowitz, a graduate of Teach
erS College, stage director, social
worker, labor adjuSter in the garment
INDUSTRY. was in intimate touch with
groups and policies which from that
day forward played an increasing part
In the Governors career. She held no
public office (unless director of pub
licity In national campaign can be
rated such); but many a seasoned
Tammany politician came to pay
tribute to her canny understanding Of
of MIR. Smiths own happy kinship with
the sidewalks Of New York, and she
knew them in parts of town then un-
familiar to him; she had his instinc-
tive sympathy for the underdog and
also q clear-headed aversion to be-
muddled pleas for feverish action in his
behalf. She proved herself a natural
executive. Cynics sometimes success
that women in politics have proved \
failure. Mrs. Moskowitz's career is q
crushing answer to that suggestion"

stroyed," testtfies Senator King In The
Star symposium.
The junior Senator from Utah con-
fided nothing new to the Czars Of the
Krcmlin. They have known for a
decade, more or less the exact price
Of American recognition. The United
States has no interest in the kind of
government the unfortunate Russian
people care to maintain or to condone,
even though It. makes for that pro
gressive inpoverishment" of them, as 1t
was once so aptly described by Charles
Evans Hughes while Secretary of State.
Even the fact that the Communist
masters OF Russia signalized their
usurpation of power in 1917 by confis-
eating American property within their
borders on large scale and by brazenly
repudiatiLg Russian government obli-
cations owed to the American Treas
ury-even such flauntings of funda-
mental international law do not bulk
biggest in the United States determina-
ton to have no tariff with the Soviets.
The insuperahle barrier is Moscow's
lnfiexible purpose to wage world rev.
olution" against all "capitalistic' civil
izations-not with troops and ships and
guns, but by methods that can be quite
as deadly, namely, the systematic I'M
dermining Of existing institutions Of
government, which run counter to the
dictatorship of the proletariat," the
precious system of Communist tyranny
that for fifteen years has held the I'M
offending Russian masses in its cruel
grasp.
The moment the Soviet government
undertakes, under conditions worthy of
credence, not to turn an embassy at
Washington into a mere smoke screen
for a Communist propaganda center
at that moment, from the standpoint of
the American people, T..o, despite the
vicissitudes they are weathering, have
not lost faith in their institutions, rec
ignition of Russia would come within
the realm of the debatable. And not
before.

the bard. It Is true that Shakespeare
Is loved In washington.

Yet there Is something curious and
strange in the fact. Shakespeare has
been dead three hundred years. His
life was spent under conditions so vastly
different that at first glance it does not
seem possible that he can have any
thing of value to contribute to our
understanding of the circumstances Of
the world in which We live. The very
motives of men have changed, psychol-
ogists say. Our aims, our ambitions,
our hopes, our fears are peculiar to the
machine age Of which we are part,
while Shakespeare, flower of the
Renaissance, product Of the lingering
age Of chivalry, perforce knew nothing
Of such intricate themes as the depres-
sion, war debts, prohibition, budget bal
ancing and democracy.
Such, at least, is. the supposition.
Ben Jonson, of course, Is remembered
to have said that his friend was mot of
an age, but for all time" but that has
been taken to have been only a pleas
ant compliment. Even the greatest of
dramatic singers, We are apt to imagine
is subject to the immutable law that
provides that when a man Is dead he
ceases to affect the thought of his fell
lows. So there have been those who
have ventured to call Shakespeare "a
waning classic
T1,f HaI
contemporary, has answered the cynics.
In his essay, "Seditions and Troubles"
he demonstrates that the era of Queen
Elizabeth was not so very much unlike
the era, of President Hoover as the
doubters have supposed. He recorded
the problems Of the former when he
wrote:
The matter Of sedition Is of two
kinds: Much poverty and much dis
contentment. The causes and motives
of seditions are innovations in religion;
taxes; alteration Of laws and customs;
breaking OF privileges: general oppres-
sion: advancement of unworthy per-
sons; dearths; disbanded soldiers; fac
tons grown desperate, and whatever in
offending people joineth them in COM
mon cause.
Bacon knew whereof he spoke, be-
cause he had seen these things Shake
speare, naturally, also saw them. 1t
follows that the poet had for the back
ground of his work much the same
scene against which modern writer's
labor. There Is a similarity between
his world and ours, an historic parallel
which 1t might interest some scholar to
develop and expand.
Americans are not merely sweetly
sentimental when they express their
love for Shakespeare. He it was who
largely made and with as yet unsur-
passed genius used the language which
they receive as part of their inheritance.
They love him as children love a ia
ther. But they are particularly con-
scious of his position as an especially
talented parent. The world he knew
may have passed, he may be outmoded
and old-fashioned, but no one else ever
has employed our language as he did.
And no one. hearing his verse properly
read, as it was last evening, can fail to
understand the meaning of DR.. Adams
reference.

the use of boiled linseed oil and few
drops of dryer. A sufficient amount of
lampblack Is added to change the color
from red to slate. After applying the
cement, it is allowed to dry thoroughly
before water Is put in the aquarium.

little baby came one day;
One OF the Heavenly Troop.
And all that infant had to say

Was "oogle boogle gloop."
A wondrous poet it became,
One Of the radio group.
AS interest he sought to claim
His words were very much the same
As "oogle boogle gloop."
We asked him what he really meant
BY his mysterious whoop.
He said, "In times of discomfort
Our thoughts by words we represent,
Like 'oogle boogle gloop.'"
If economic light we see,
Our Pride must learn to stoop.
Like little children we must be
And tell our intellectual glee
With "oogle boogle gloop."

When wake up in the morning I roll

And press the little button In the wall

The vacuum cleaners in the barn begin

Currying the horses and sweeping up

The automatic mixer gets busy on the

While conveyors pass the hay around

The Leghorns' grain is scattered wide

A click, whirr. the rotary is plough

Which melts like magic of the steps as

The electric stove is glowing and the

worship. There is no room, however
in Isolde's heart for this dark, hand
some and ehivalrous knight. She loves
only Tristan, and it is with sense OF
shame at his own inadequacy that
Palamede acknowledges the wisdom OF
the teaching of his father that men
and women are the same the world
over. and that there is no joy in the
worship of a beautiful woman whose
love is given elsewhere.
In relating the love Of Palamede fol
Isolde, Mr.. Erskine may be guilty OF
accrediting to his resurrected pagan
knight more grace of manner and
highness of purpose than he deserves
Be that as 1t may, the wonder grows
as to why the poets "conspired to for
get him" and to give to Tristan the
crown of sole hero. For PalameGe's
love was more tender, more faithful
and more beautiful, and he was Away:
a gentleman, but he was unbaptized
an unbeliever, pagan. Tristan, or
the other hand, was selfish, unreaSon-
able, unfaithful and seldom a gentle
man. He was, however, accepted as g
Christian in good standing. And so
here is the story of Tristan ano
Isolde" with Palamede restored tc
honor, though he may never attain the
place of fame to which he Is undoubt-
edly entitled.
When the announcement came that
Tristan and Isolde" was to be pub.
lished as novel from the pen Of John
Erskine. speculation Immediately began
as to whether the whimsical modern
izer would produce the lovers In up-to-
date dress or permit them to remain
in their ancient wrappings. There ha.
been very little modernization, for II
is quite patent that the author was moi
inclined to lift Palamede from his ma
tive setting. The novel makes q some
what different love story, but in all tbs
circumstances of such a revival of Q
lost character the original legend has
been followed as closely as could be
wished.

ably Mr.. Erskine's best novel. in beauty
