REBUILT GERMAN WAR MACHINE

Europe is all astir Hitler again. This time troops to the assistance of the Fascist forces in effort to overthrow the Communistic government troops and thus start European
 There should be little sympathy in this country for what happens to Europe the result of what Hitler may may not do. Great Britain, France and what called allied powers have sat idly by for 10 years and let Hitler rebuild war machine in Germany in direct violation of the treaties following the They have done a little stewing from time to time but actually they have done nothing except trade power to Hitler to further their own ends until the German leader sits in the driver seat and make his demands.
 What Germany wants and Hitler proposes to get for her is the of colonies she lost after the war and there is every reason to believe that she soon will get them. A who build machine that rivals if not excels the German machine of 1914 in the face of socalled agreements not to and while group of supposed watchdogs are sitting around is hardly to fail at such venture without valiant struggle.
 True, the world may turn against him it turned against Wilhelm in 1914 but the fact remains that Germany today is just potent nation she when she moved Paris twenty-two years ago. And it is something for this country to remember when the bleating nations of Europe start shouting for help again Let them do their own stopping of the German machine next time while pro- mote peace on the western hemisphere.

False Dawn

Philadelphia Record)
 Concident with the adoption of the Russian Constitution of the larger retail stores in Moscow created a sensation by displaying frock coat and a full-dress suit for evening in its window
 No such habments have marred the proletarian scene since the revolution and commentators quick to investigate. They learned that full line of formal clothes for will be introduced during the year The dress suits will not be importations but products of the Soviets factories.
 The dress suit is priced at 782 rubles and 85 ko- peks According to official Soviet figures for 1885, the average income of Russian workers is 2271 rubles annually
 In other words the Russian proletaran would have to pay about third of his whole yearly wage in order to buy dress suit.
 The only sample dress suit to appear thus far is size 48 This fact adds greatly to the mystery and possibly to the social significance of the stystic development. For Harold Denny of the New wage about Sll4 year in terms of purchasing power Not many Russian workers are going to get fat enough to 48 on STA year
 This may be production for use, but it indicates that capitalism isn't the only system in the world with funny things about it. Any revolution that doesn't go far enough to abolish the dress suit is what the Communists would call superficial formism." What in the name of Marx is the use of having revolution if the people without dress suits going to keep feeling inferior and the I eople with them keep on feeling uncomfortable? Has Stalin sold out to Bond Street? Have the polo malle and the oyster fork conquered the hammer and sickle?
