LOVE THEME FOR MOSCOW MUSES Soviet Poets Turn Again to Romance for ln=
 spiratiOn
BY EUGENE LYONS United Press Staff. Correspondent

V >~s|o ' Moscow-UP) =. Greater free dom for the Muses, decreed by the Kremlin some time ago. is mak- ing itself manifest in love poems, the first to be published for many years in this country. Soviet poets :. once more are turning to love and lilies for in- spiration. It is respectable again to write about nature. romance and the more tender side of life. gen. erally. fs4.
 After years when tractors, fac tories, the Five Year Plan and the like were the only themes tolerat- ed. the eniergence of lyrical. more or less romantic poetry is worthy of attention.
 In April, 1882, the govern ment dissolved various societies of proletarian writers, which were suppresing all literature they demed unorthodox. This act was taken as license to write more freely on subjects other than those prescribed by Communists.
 Soviet authors, however, were slow to use their new freedom, either for lack of courage or lack of talent. Poets in particular continued to poetize in the most suited orthodox style. Recent Art exhibitions disclosed that painters. too. stuck to factories and demor- strations, avoiding the softer as- poets of existence,
 Now poets are beginning to ad- init old-fashioned emotions. Lyrics dealing with love. flowers. beauty and such things are appearing in the press, magazines and between book covers with increasing fre- Quency. Ii

Mrs McGill struggled against a natural inter est and found that Lyda's stories were paving the way for her att tack.
 As they ate, Mrs McGill talked of Lyda.s career and the terrible thing 1t must be not to have a private life because of the public Interest. Lyda only smiled enig- matically.
 T remember reading about your marriage to that Count from Paris" Mrs McGill said naively. ''He wasn't worth marrying, from what read"
 Lyda continued to smile under standingly at Mrs McGill. Bart flushed painfully. He bit his lips, hurt by his mothers tactlessness.

New York (UP) The age of the liquor racketeer has ended. The era of the commercial racke- teer is said to be waning. But the political racket still flourishes in the nations capital, according to Raymond Clapper's expose of "Racketeering in Washington" Clapper's book is based upon his years of experience as head of the Washington Bureau of the United Press Associations. He has put into book form, amplified and expanded, the Illuminating series of articles upon nepotism which was carried under his by-line on United Press wires. To his skill and knowledge foreword by Henry Ford pays tribute.
 The Detroit industrialist says: MT Clapper knows this nation
 He constantly has travelled its length and breadth, observing its trends, studying its methods, fa- miliarizing himself with the wide variety of mind and motive which marks it's citizens, and reporting these with the efficiency and high impartiality which characterize oui best journalism"
 A brief survey of Clapper s chapter headings best illustrates the scope and subject matter oi the book. They read as follows: Payroll Statesmen, The Land of the Free, Summing nthe Senate, Family Pie, Nepotism's Cousins, Wild Life, Soft Jobs, Spending De Luxe, Subsidies, Preparedness and Pork, Pensions and Politics, Rul- CTS of America, Turn on the Light.
 "Racketeering in Washing ton" is illustrated by many car- toons by leading cartoonists.
 Clapper devotes his early chapters to discussion of polit- ical racketeering in general, to lay ing the background for the later

The habit of a lifetime of abid ing by her opinions was. he felt,
 going to be too strong, and he did not want to weaken.
 "Listen, Mother, all you know
 about Lyda is what I've told you,
 and that should not prejudice you against her." he said defiantly. "I've | told you that she is 29 and old | enough to know the seriousness of marriage. I've told you that she is beautiful and perfect and intel ligent and that I'm a lucky devil
 that she looks at me at all." l Mrs McGill sniffed. The idea of

She spoke gently and some- | what sorrowfully. Her son was very much impressed. "This Lyda woman may be all you claim for her. But I've read the papers.

 Mrs McGill played her triumph ant note in the argument. She said, looking noble and self-sacrificing. "Son, I've always guided your life to the best of my ability. You can't say it has not been a happy life. have tried to be a mother, a com panion, friend to you."
 Bart interrupted impulsively, oh, you have, mother, you have."
 '"Then do what you like about your infatuation to get over it. But don't get married to a woman of this type" she said coldly.
 Bart blinked. He knew how prim his mother was about morals. Then he softened toward her. What an effort it must have been for her, with her strict standards, to say such a thing to him. He went over and put his arms around her and for a moment she clung to him.
 "Bart, l. want to be fair. Bring this Lyda woman to the house for dinner. Let me judge for myself"
 He gave his mother tremen- dous hug. How just she was, after all. He would ask Lydia to have dinner with them that very eve- ming. He knew that his mother

GERMANY BARS
 CAFE WORKERS
Under New System No Person Can Hold
 Two Jobs

Berlin, (UP)-"Labor passports" are tho latest device in Germany for fighting double carners."
 These passports have been made obligatory by government decree in the whole restaurant and cafe in- dustry.
 Every person employed in res- taurants or cafes must have a "la- Dor passport" showing where he or she is employed. Of course. mo- body already having job can be employed at another place under this system.
 This regulation applies not only to walters. cloakroom girls and similar employees, but also to mu- sicians. The fact that many musi- clans succeeded in securing jobs at several cafes created much ill., feeling among jobless musicians, and that was the principal reason why double-earning in cafes was banned sooner and more efficient ly than in other branches of in dustry.
 The labor passport system may be extended to other industries as well, but the government did not yet disclose it's plans in this re- spect.

You see," she spoke precisely, as if she was the older woman clarifying a situation for a young girl, when one has faith, Mrs McGill, one doesn't stop to investigate. You remember that I obtained divorce three months after my marriage and that asked no help from the Count?"
 Mrs McGill swallowed with diff culty. To have a charge twisted like that! Her chagrin killed her appetite and she toyed angrily with her food.
