TOULON, France. September "a
Although conditions in Barcelona,
Valencia Madrid and other sections
of loyalist Spain where there is no
actual fighting may be described as
normal, the revolution already has
introduced many changes, some strik-
ing and some less apparent but no
less real
Shops everywhere are open. with
business going on much as usual. The
public utilities function on a scale
that is reduced but little and people
sit in the cafes and stroll on the bou-
levards as before, but the so-called
fashionable people and their smart
clubs or rendezvous have disappeared.
The leading hotels and social clubs
have been requisitioned as Offices or
dwelling quarters for workers organi-
cations or as feeding centers for
children.
And in this hot country neither men
nor women wear headgear OF any
kind except soldiers, street car off,
cials and policemen. I was told that
this had become masculine fashion
in recent years, but in the case Of the
women there is an obvious protective
assimilation" with proletarian usage,
and a similar absence of smart frocks,
furs or stockings.
Rash of Flags.
Another striking change is the rash
Of flags that has broken out on almost
every building and on all motor cars
save doctors automobiles, which con-
tent themselves with white -lettered
placards bearing the word 'Medico'
or its Catalan synonym, ".Metge.'
Only doctors cars and those of for
eigners which carry their national
flags. as do foreign buildings. have
not been communicated The flags
are rivaled by long streamers of bunt-
ing across house fronts, bearing the
letters or names of new workers or
ganiza tions in lurid colors.
At the doors of banks, exchange
Offices, big hotels and many other
establishments or homes of members
of the former privileged class, there
are groups of militia men armed with
rifles. and the streets are full of armed
soldiers. Several times daily traffic

Communism Not Achieved.
In discussing internal matters in
Soviet Russia, Howard developed the
following inquiry:
Admittedly, communism has not
been achieved in Russia. State social
ism has. Have not fascism in Italy
and national socialism in Germany
claimed to have attained similar re-
suits? Have not both been achieved
at the price of deprivation of personal
liberty. sacrificed for the good of the
state?"
mo, communism has not been
achieved In the Soviet Union so far, -"
Stain answered. 1T is not easy. But
your term state socialism is not exact.
Many people refer to a condition
as state socialism when a considerable
amount of national wealth passes to
government ownership, sometimes for
military advantage. even though the
majority of wealth remains in private
hands.
THE social order which we have
built up so far cannot be termed state
socialism in this sense. The Soviet
system is fundamentally socialistic be-
cause there is no private ownership Of
factories, land. banks, railways, mines,
etc. Our system-which not yet has
been quite completed-is socialistic be-
cause the foundation of society is
common state ownership. ownership
by the people or by co-operatives and
collective farms.
Italian fascism or German national
socialism do not have anything in
common with such a system, because
in those countries private ownership
OF industry is not affected. Capitalism
in those countries still has full ef-
fectiveneSs.
Only that society can be called
communistic in which people are COM
pensated not on the basis Of the guam
tity or quality Of the work produced,
but on the basis of their needs"

TOXIC, March 4.-The aristocratic
Prince Konoye declined today an OBJ
portunity to become Japan's young
est premier, sending Emperor Hiro-
hito and his advisers on a new search
Tor a man who will be able to head
the government in its crisis.
Indications from the imperial pal
ace tonight were that the aged Prince
Saionji, having advised the nominal
ton Of Prince Konoye unsuccess-
fully. would not make another at
tempt to find a new premier before
tomorrow.
The capital became greatly excited
upon the announcement that Prince
Konoye, popular with virtually all
elements, had been summoned to the
palace and commanded to form a
cabinet to replace that of Premier
keisuke Okada, which was shattered
by last weeks militarist rebellion and
assassinations.
Pleads "Poor Health"
The 42-year-old Prince Konoye re-
tired, consulted Prince Saionji and
others and then returned to the pail
ace to tell the Emperor he would be
unable to form a ministry.
Il asked his majesty to excuse me
from the great responsibility of head
ing the cabinet owing to poor health"
he announced.
A communique from the martial law
headquarters disclosed that more than
400 officers and men participated
in the rebellion which broke out at
dawn last Wednesday.
The rebels came from the 3rd In
fantry Regiment of the Imperial Body
Guard Division and the 1st and 3rd
Infantry and 7th Heavy Artillery
Regiments of the LIST Army Division
1t was disclosed that portions of
eight infantry regiments and other
units Of the LIST. I'd and 14th Divisions
were called in to suppress the upris-

out of the government centers they
had seized.
Earlier Prince Konoye accepted the
charge and asked the Emperor for
time to organize new ministry.

His appointment was announced
