 Boosts Russian Morale
 Comment has been made on the recent cockiness of Russians follow ing skirmishes with Japanese in Mongolia. Diplomats here know, as few others do, that some of those skirmishes were of substantial pro- portions.
 Detachments of Japanese troops made several raids and were wiped out. Russian warplanes are said to have figured in these battles which ragged around the spot where Mongolia, Manchukuo, and Siberia meet. Most of the news was sup- pressed.
 Japanese miIitaristS have been rather wild about 1t and Russians have acted as if they had not fear
 of war with the island empire.
 Whether all this was what prim- arly irked the young Japanese assassins isn't yet apparent from the cables.
 If nothing happens in the Far East, most international politicians believe, the next world war is like ly to be delayed Q couple of years --"until Hitler gets ready" But meanwhile the Nazis are likely to take over Memel.

 Farley Needs H0rseshOes
 Jim Farley had better start pray ing that there will be no major steamship disasters between now and election time.
 Recent prediction in this column that Commander H. Mccoy Jones and Frederick L. Adams, second and third ranking officers of the Bureau of Navigation and Steamship h. spection, wouldn't lose their jobs turns out to have been wrong.
 These men, proponents of safe- ty at sea and protection of pas sengers from horrors such as the MorrO Castle and Mohawk disas- ters, were charged with giving publicity to the resolution of the 1 bureaus Board of Supervising Inspectors, which said in effect htat board members could no longer be responsible for safety and lives of passengers and crews on American vessels.
 Their friends charge their supe- riors have been loath to insist on saefty reforms, because shipping in- terests don't want to pay the costs.
 Anyway, they have been fired by Secretary of Commerce Dan Roper and Assistant Secretary J. Monroe Johnson. And if there's another Morro Castle disaster, nothing is more likely than that the republi- cans will use the dismissal incident in an attempt to pin responsibility , on the administration.
 Roper lost his temper at the press conference in which he un- dertook to explain why Jones and Adams had been dismissed from the service without a hearing. Cor respondents weer blunt in their questionings.
 No more of this nOw," he snapped. we have covered it thoroughly"
 If Congress were not overwhelm- ingly democratic. an investigation of Roper, the bureau, and the dis missals would be fairly certain. Copyright 1886. NEA Service, Incl

|HE encounter of John L. Lewis
and William Green may be a
title bout. the first Of its kind
n in American labor history
since the days Of the Knights Of Labor.
Oddly enough, the tire-e eating Lewis is

ardent supporter Of Herbert Hoover
and the foe Of left-wing labor leaders,
while the conservative. conciliatory

ated their differences, but has caused
the first great schism in the national

gani7e the steel workers projects their
intellectual and tactical differences
into immediate and possibly ominous
reality.
A few months ago I talked with Will
liam Green in his Washington ofice
one day and with John L. Lewis the
next. One could understand their
having been friends and co-Vorkers for
years and one also could see how op-
posed they were in person, outlook and
motivation. l observed that Green,
the conciliator, gestured with his own
open hand. while Lewis. the fighter,
whammed the palm of his hand with
his clerched fist.
In Green's bare and rather shabbily
furnished Office at 90l Massachusetts

case with a dozen or two books scat
tered through the shelves They were
books on military strategy and dry
looking volumes on industrial statis-

fighting the Bolsheviks, working for
wages and hours and keeping out Of
serious trouble. On the whole, the
years Of his incumbency have been un-
troubled. He is a peace-loving and
conciliatory labor leader.
John L. Lewis might have been a
great Shakespearean actor, and, Incl
dentally. it is Shakespeare which has
given him his rounded and resonant
diction. A pit boy at IL in the coal
mines Of Iowa, he cleaned his own edu-
cation. He still VOLTS Shakespeare and
