tor of "Tho World Tomorrow" in m address in Alumnae hall here last night.
 Speaking on "Dlctatorship and Revolution in Europe" at an eve- ming session of the third annual New England Institute of Inter. national Relations, which Is bcing held hero this week under auspices of the American Friends Service Committee, Mr Allen further de. scrlbod Fascism as serving as Q promised land for the middle class, which, "disillusloned and dlsor. ganizod, became fully ready for the glib pledges of . domagog."
 Tt has also become in q shaky world" he declared, "a self-con- scious device to prolong the life of 0 tottering capitalism"
 Any work against Fascisrn, abroad or here, the speaker con. tinued, must be based upon the achievement of permanent security for tho individual. We can learn pngeantry of fnsclsm; we can fight 1t by economic and political inter. nationallsm; wo shall be able to itViu " Duth ny ihbUT bUiiudEity IA that can be effected. But at long last, and at rock bottom, or most sig. niiioant efforts will be toward the winning of Q peaceful revolution which will create Q constructive s0- elai order. Tho central contribution toward such an outcome will be found In the program of socialism, ho said.
 Referring to tho clash and con- fiict in Europe today, MT Allen said that 1t should serve to remind us that the Issue is not merely one of dictatorship against democracy. Scarcely anywhere in tho world, he asserted, is democracy ct the pres ont timo more than . catchword of the old tradition.
 Mir Alien said that there are at least three major types of dicta- torship in the world today, tho most recent of them tho form of delegated dictatorship being tried in tho United States under tho new doal.
 "In Soviet Russia" he went on. "the dictatorship of the proletariat has emerged into perhaps the most stable government in tho world. Whether we like 1t or not, It's strength can hardly be questioned. Finally, of course, and most i'm. portnnt of all, because of It's com. parntlvely rapid rise and It's in. credible spread to the far corners of tho planet is the fascist form Of dictatorship in Italy, Germany and other countries whore if not In power it constitutes m active monaco to existing institutions"
 Nearly 600 people attended the lecture including students who are attending tho ten day international rotations school and many citizens Interested in promoting world peao0.

CHAMPAGNE POPS
 IN PARIS SHOPS
Sparkling Wine No Longer Exclusive Privilege of
 Titled AristOcrat

Paris ---- -tUP)--- Champagne has put tho pop in popularity at both ends of tho social scale.
 This sparkling wine, invented over 250 years ago by Dom Perig- non, no longer is m exclusive priv- ilegc of tho pntricinn In passy. or tho titled nrlstocrnt in tho Eau bourg Saint-G Gormain. Today, tho communist in CiIchy and tho bluo- bloused prolotarlan of Menllmon- tant arc slipping tho beverage with equal gusto.
 Moro champagne is being con. sumed here this year than ever boz fore. Bartcndors will smile instoad of glower down tholr noses even If you order a coup do champagne nt nlno n. m. Champagne dinners have boomc the fad, and K almost Inevitably the rule in high Paris socIoty. At q recent gala dinner at ono of tho smartost rostaturnntA champagne was tho only beverage served.
 In tho "hnuto modo," of course, thls preferono for champagne is morely q matter of taste, and tho question of price docs not enter the equation.
 Tn the thousands of Paris homes. however, where champagne for. merly was served only for great oe. casioDs, such as marriages, deaths. births and betrothalS, it is bocom- ing n common occurrence. At least one of tho raison d'etro is that champagne prices have come down and ordinary folk now can afford tho golden bubbles.

All Employed Between IA and l6 Must Con-
 tribute Weekly

London (UP)--British working boys and girls of IA now have been drawn into the network of the Un m ployment Insurance scheme, though they do not enjoy the "dole" until they reach 16.
 But as long as they are employ ed between 14 and 16 they and their employers must contribute together four pence a week toward the $30O,00,000 Insurance fund The new rule, which introduces the somewhat novel principle of taxa ton without immediate benefit. goes into force Sept 3,
 At present there are 515.000 boys and 100000 girls between Is and IS who carry Unemployment insurance cards entitling them to benefits when they get out of a job. For boys the premiums are 10 pence a week, of which half must be paid by the employer; for girls. it is nine pence week, sini- larly divided between employer and employe. (Many employers pay the whole premium rather than bother with the reduction in the weekly wages.)
 The dole" enjoyed by these in- sured youths amounts to eight shinnings a week for the boy who is IT and five shillings six pence for the youth of 16; the 17-year- old girl draws six shillings nine pence and the 16-year-old girl,
