MOSCOW FOOD
SUPPLY GAINS
Summer Help To Lessen
Strain Upon The Soviet
Capital
By EUGENE LYONS
United Press Staff Correspondent

MOSCOW, June % CUP)-Dis-
tinct improvements in the avail
ability of foodStuffS and clothes
are apparent in the Soviet capital
and many other large cities.
This. coupled with natural
lessening of the strain of living
conditions as summer approaches,
has put Moscow in more cheer
full mood.
Optimistic reports on spring
sowings, the opening of many new
commercial shops, and let-up IN
arrests. all contributed toward
cheerfulneSS.
A tour of shops here disclosed
larger stocks Of goods than a year,
or even six months, ago. Most
had q brisk, buSineSSlike air, IN
contrast with the depressing char
acter of these places few months
ago.
The appearance of more goods,
however. does not mean that dis
treSs is ended. The portion Of
MOScow'S population able 70 avail
itself of the change Is extremely
small. Prices are AT level which
only the beSt-paid engineers, Spe-
CialiStS. writer's drawing royalties,
can afford.
The mass Of the population
must depend on their r?tions. on
the meals provided by their fac
tories, offices and schools. with
only an occasional supplementary
purchase at the free market or
commercial shop prices.

tenth anniversary of its organiza-
ton, in Dublin, Ireland, July 20

His ExceIlcncy, Michael Mac
White, minister to the United
States from the Irish Free State,
said Of the conference:
"The principal idea of the
W. +. L. \. is to cultivate and foS-
ter international friendship
through the powerful agency OF
education. When we consider the
unrest in the nations of the mod
ern world and the fact that 1913
educational organizations repre-
scnting the leading peoples are
members Of the World Federation,
we are persuaded that much valu-
able work will be accomplished
this year.

imum wage scale of Sl5 week
in the south and SIS a week in
the north and a 30-hour week,
instead of the proposed minimum
wage of $40 a week in the south
and $11 a week in the north and
a 40 hour week. Stevens also
called attention to the fact that
shortly after he became COM
mander of the American Legion
in 1881, he organized a commit
tee to work for national adop-
ton Of the 30-hour week of five
a week and that he served as lis
chairman. He also added that he
is still convinced that if this plan
had been adopted the depression
would not have lasted so long.
Those on the inside of things
here. however, believe that there
is much more behind Stevens de-
ciaration in favor of higher min
imum wages than mere inter
est in the personal welfare Of
cotton mill and other industrial
workers. In fact, they believe
that Stevens is definitely consid-
ering running for some office in
which the voters Of industrial
workers would be very desirable,
and that this interview he issued
advocating higher min m u m,
wages than those proposed by the
government. is merely the first
move in an effort to line up the
industrial vote.
1t is not known just what Ste
vens has in mind. Some think
he may be planning to seek the
Democratic nomination for COVER
nor in 1885, while others think
there is a possibility that he may
be starting to get his ducks in a
row to oppose Senator Josiah W.
Bailey. 1t is generally conced-
ed. however, that Stevens does
not think he has been very well
treated by the two present SEN
ators and that he is not at all
averse to trying to make it hot
for one or both of them.

costing that what is happening
now may be traceable to Reynolds
