London, June 5-(AP)-Prime Min
lister Baldwin today brought Sir
Samuel Hoare, foreign secretary who
resigned in disfavor over the Italo-
Ethiopian war, back into the British
cabinet.
Sir Samuel was appointed First
Lord of Admiralty, succeeding Lord
Monsell, who resigned.
Sir Samuel's return to the cabinet,
although long predicted, may raise a

since he was forced out of the cabinet

SUPREME COURT IS
NOT TO Be ISSUE
New Deal Wants to Wait
Until After Election to
Press Fight
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press Staff Writer

Washington, June 5-The question
whether or not the Federal Supreme
Courts power should be curtalled
clearly will not be fought over during
the national campaign just beginning.
The Republicans would like to have
the issue raised, with their party on
the negative side of it, because their
managerial group believes that ma
jority of Americans are opposed TO
stricter limitation of judicial author
ity. However, they can't make it an
issue, with themselves on the mega
tive SIDE unless the Democrats come
out affirmatively. And the Democrats
are too crafty to commit themselves.
President Roosevelt evidently agrees
with the Republicans that proposal
to hamstring the mine old men"
would be unpopular. Consequently,
much to the G. o. P.'s annoyance, he
discreetly refrains from declaring for
such a policy

The court has knocked their legis-
lative program into pretty much of
cooked hat, by holding so many of its
essential features unconstitutional
Yet it is understandable that the adj
ministration may prefer to wait until
it is safely in office again, for anoth-
er four years, before precipitating q
doubtful struggle.

correlated communities. New types OF
entertainment and instruction likewise
have had a dispersive effect.
But more particularly it has been the
depression which has driven people away
from people. The emergency put every
individual on guard against the potential
danger constituted by competition for
jobs, for money, even for food. Govern
ment relief measures failed to eliminate
the fear which multitudes felt. Indeed,
1t may be wondered If Federal charity
has not been one of the most widely
influential causes of human isolation in
America. 1t certainly made numbers of
families class conscious as they never had
been before.
Yet the gregarious tendency Of the
race is not subject to any permanent
decline. Men are possessed Of an Unborn
instinct for association with their own
species AS normal conditions return,

heart, and Mr.. Walker is familiar with
that fact in notable degree.

20-foot trench. At the bottom they
found clear evidences of an ancient cul-
ture without skeletons-fragments of
pottery, jade ornaments old house sites
and refuse heaps. The pottery was espe-
cially significant. 1t was decorated with
designs clearly of the Maya type, al
though less elaborate. 1t was all of one
color and never showed the polychrome
design associated with authentic Mayan
pottery.
Above these remains was layer of
clay about two meters thick. Above this
layer was another deposit of potsherds-
but this time characteriStically Mayan.
Here was what the archeologiSt seeks

provides the time sequence of pre-hiS-
tory. 1t must have taken long time,
probably centuries, for the clay layer
between the two deposits to have been
laid down. That would be the time sep
arating the two cultures. It was like
book with score of pages torn out of
the middle.
DR.. Strong and his party then under
took to find those missing pages They
partly succeeded at another site along
the Comayagua River, one of the tribu-
taries of the Ulua. There they found
remains of an apparent transition stage
where the beaches of the dead style
of pottery seemed to be shading of into
the Maya type.
There seems to be little question. says
DR., Strong, that the beaches-of-the-dead
culture was prior to and probably an
cestral to the Mayan. 1t was similar
to it, considerably simpler, and preceded
1t in time. There still are missing links,
however, which must be found before
the thesis can be fully established.

The Soviet Purge.

Despite its strenuous diplomatic activity
in protest against foreign intervention in
Spains civil war and the constant threat
of conflict with Germany or Japan, the
Soviet government finds time to con-
tinue housekeeping operations at home.
When Zinovieff, Kamenetf, Smirnoff and
a dozen other one-time BolsheviSt key
men were convicted of treason and
executed in August for completely in
Trotzky terrorist plot, it was supposed
that the Moscow purge was fairly COM
plete. Now comes the arrest of Karl
Radek. since Lenin's days the most
brilliant publicist in Russia and long
acknowledged as the U. S. S. RS out
standing journalistic spokesman, to
prove that the Communist czars do not
even yet feel that the ranks of traitor
suspects are sufficiently thinned. Stain
thus signals that he will not tolerate in
the high command any persons whose
100 per cent devotion to the dictatorship
is not indisputably beyond question.
Radek has been in virtual eclipse since
the trial of the Trotzky conSpirators. His
name was mentioned in a compromising
connection during those amazing pro-
ceedingS. But in his last published article
Radek assailed Trotzky, confessed the
error of his own ways and protested his
unqualified present loyalty to the Stain
regime. According to the latest accounts,
this bid for pardon proved unavailing
and Radek was taken into custody. Just
what is in store for him has apparently
not yet been decided. The expectation
is that he, too, will be tried for treason.
Nearly all of the original Lenin adherents
and lieutenants have successfully been
suppressed in one way or another.
Trotzky is still in exile in Norway, from
which Moscow recently and vainly
sought his Punishment. Others of the
BolSheviSt old guard, with only one or
two exceptions, have been executed, ex-
PEELED from Russia, denoted in the
governments service or are under arrest
and on the eve of trial. A prominent
trio which awaits determination of its
fate includes, besides Radek, the formerly
highly respected and influential COM
missars Rykoff and Bukharin.
Iron-handed despotism, such as holds
sway in Moscow, Rome and Berlin, lives
in chronic terror, suspicion and alarm.
1t is not accustomed to tolerate any
scintilla of disaffection or disloyalty, nor
is it above trumping up evidence to prove
even the shadow of wrongdoing by its
foes. The anxieties and fears amid
which the Stains, Mussolinis and Hitlers
traditionally exist and govern suggest
normally that they are far from invul-
nerably intrenched. Russia is probably
no exception to the rule. But the purge
program under way at Moscow Is accom-
panied by few tangible signs that the
Stain autocracy, hated and disavowed
as it must be in many Soviet quar- ters, is
on it's last legs or even in Shaky condi-
ton. AS long as the Red Army's
allegiance is unimpaired, Stalinism seems
safely saddled.

whole generation Of less widely famous

masses their own temperamental agnos-
ticism.
The same forces, keen observers dis
cover, are in action In the United States
today. Depression gave them their
chance, and they are taking full ad-
vantage of it. The New Deal incon-
trovertibly came into power by an ap-
peal to pessimism. A glance over the

to support the contention that Presi-
dent Roosevelt based his whole CAM

must be replaced by Crusade to restore
America to its own people" His foes

And now the entire electorate Is de-

the masses the same devotion to reform
that they had four years ago? II SO.
Mr.. Roosevelt will be reelected. II not.
he will be defeated by some other leader.
But it already is clear that any success

not so much upon any rational fidelity
which the millions may entertain, but
rather upon the disappointment and the

NeighbOrliness.

1t is matter worthy of comment when
q former Mayor of New York declares
that the metropolis has ceased to be
neighborly. Perhaps James j. Walker
was aware that he would cause sensa-
ton with the words in which he deplored
the passing of the old order of friendship
among the dwellers of the greatest city
of the Western World. In any case, there
is reason to believe that he was not
entirely mistaken in the opinion he
proclaimed.
Times have changed. It would be use
less to deny the alterations which have
made people sheltered under q single
roof strangers to each other. Life is
adjusted to more rapid tempo than it
formerly was; life also is more dras-
tically complicated. New transit facili-
ties have served TO scatter once closely
