ject of undermining the position of France as the paramount pow CT.
 Through it's consuls and intelli- gence officers the British govern ment is kept well informed of the situation inside the French Empire in North Africa. It is no secret that Socialist and Com munist Ministers in Paris have gone out of their way to protect Nationalist leaders in the French colonies, who under preceding re- gimes were not permitted to de- velop any propaganda at all, The result is that the prestige of the French administration is at a low ebb. Nationalism in the guise of communism is raising its head all over the place.
 MT. Eden has been for long time a staunch supporter of the idea of cooperation with Russia to resist the German menace. When Sir John Simon was at the foreign office and had committed himself to visit Chancellor Ad- off Hitler in Berlin, MT. Eden, who then was his assistant. de- liberately planned his own visit to Moscow as a counterblast to the Germanophile move of his chief.
 MT. Eden also always support ed the Franco-Russian alliance to an extent Whcih called for com plaints on the part of realistic politicians in this country. At Gen eva the Edan-Litvinof combina- ton was extremely close. But it has to be admitted that for mon ths now, in the International Committee fo" N N0n-InterVcntion in Spain, Russian diplomacy has distinguished itself by it's clum- sy and ovocat;ve manoeuvering That, however, would not have mattered if the adj given by Mos COW to the republican cause had been effective It was not so, and public opinion condemned it as a failure.
 Now comes the greater failure over the Chinese issue. Unless the Russians review their whole position and take steps quickly to remedy it's defects, the final out come must be that in the affairs of Europe their authority will virtually disappear.-New York Times

 falling for considerable time. The decline was due to the fail ure of Moscow to bring success to the republicans in Spain. The impression in this country. more and more is that General Fran cisco Franco is winning the war. Inevitably Russia. as the avoWed supporter of the republicans, be- comes suspect of being responsi- ble for their failure.
 Concern Over France, Too
 But it must be said also that the people in Great Britain are becoming alarmed by the grow tn of Communist intervention in the internal life of France. It is all very well, they say, to rope in the Communist party and to oblige it to share in the work of Parliament. But, in the long run, the price paid for cooperation may be too heavy, if the presen- ce of the Communists in the ranks of the ruling Popular Front pre- vents moderate elements from put ting an end to the social troubles.
 No doubt Great Britain is faith full to the Anglo-Franch entente. That cannot prevent the British from fearing the social unrest in Europe, which spells weakening 10 hat country's position in Eur ope and ruin to her eeanom.c structure.
 Great Britain has a special reason to be d.spleased with Rus sian activities in France. Until now little has been heard of that displeasuc., because the British Government in the present cir cumstances hesitates always be- fore it takes step that may cause discomfort to its French friends. The displeasure of London is a. reused by the way in which the Russians have taken advantage of the existence of a Popular Front Government in Paris to SOW the seeds of discomfort in Moroc- co, Tunis, and even in Algeria.
 Great Britain is an imperial power. Closely allied with France, Great Britain is obliged to resent any weakening in the imperial position of her ally. Socialists in all countries are nortoriously bad at administering colonial posses sions. French Socialists, because of their connection at present with the Communists, are partic- ularly incompetent to deal with the problems of Empire.
 Alliance With NatiOnalists And so it has happened that in Morocco, Algiers and Tunis, and in Syria as we'll, agents of the Communist International have been allowed to form a working alliance with the leaders of local nationalist parties with the ob-

Control of Crops

kinds of crops, but compulsory con-
troll of cotton production, anyway
Hailing from Alabama, he naturally
is particularly interested in cotton.
Three Ideas.
There are three schools of thought
on the subject Of crop control.
School No. 1 favors penalizing farm
ers for producing above a certain de-
sfgnated liEnit- penalizing them icy
crushing taxation supon any produc-
ton upon any excess over that limit.
Adhereents of this school would even
penalize buyers of the so-called over
plus.
School No. 2 does not favor pen
alization, but it does favor rewarding
farmers who keep their production
down to the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
ed maximum.
School No. 3 opposes any limitation
whatever.

virtue of his speakership, his influ-
