FARMER-LABOR CALLED
BOON TO COMMUNISTS

The Farmer-Labor party has been
"the greatest boon to the Commun-
lists on the rural 'front.'" says DR..
Stanley High in an article in this
weeks Saturday Evening Post.
The party, he says, lis most po-
tent in Minnesota and the Dakotas,
with a much smaller influence in
Iowa. The Communists have Jared
best in Minnesota, where some re-
ports put the party membership as
high as $4,000"
"The ace brain in the Minnesota
Farmer-Labor movement Is probab-
ly Roger Rutchick, secretary and
personal adviser, to Governor Ell
mer A. Benson" DR.. High continues.
Rutchick, he says, lis no card
carrying Communist" but adds the
secretary makes no bones about his
admiration for the Soviet expert
ment," and quotes Marx and Lenin
with the best of them.
High quotes Lem Harris, secre-
tary of the Communist Farmers
National Committee for Action,
saying in a Minneapolis speech:
THE Farmer-Labor party is the
Communist Party and when Com
munism takes over the United
States in 1910, it will be known as
the Farmer-Labor party. High said
that at the time Governor Benson
was hailed as " a most loyal COM
rade."
Dr. High is churchman and edi-
tor and was active in the 1896
Roosevelt campaign. = Minneapolis

Along with this change was a
change In the type of accidents.
Non-collision smashes drumming off
the road, tipping over, and the like
increased 80 percent, while pedes-
trian accidents decreased 18 per-
cent.
There was also so percent in
crease over the previous month in
accidents brought about by defec-
tive equipment. w. F. Rosenwald,
safety engineer of the Highway de-
partment, explains this by pointing
out that defective brakes, not not
iceable under city area speeds, show
up with fatal results when used to
check machine travelling at high
rates along rural highways.

Charles Lee Frank,
Art Collector, Dies

CHARLES Lee Frank, IS, well known
art collector and connoisseur. died
saturday in George Washington
University Hospital after an illness
of two years.
Mr.. Frank, whose home was on
Conduit road, near Glen Echo. Md
was native Of Germany and had
peen an artist and painter in New
orleans before coming here about
80 years ago. Some of his works
are on exhibition in New Orleans
and New York City.
He had devoted the latter part of
his life to collecting art treasures
ana curios. He had specialized in
uncovering apparently worthless pic
lures and busts which have since
oeen found to be of considerable
value. Among his treasures were a
miniature of George Washington
and rare portraits of Stephen De-
catur. Mary Randolph and Benia-
min Franklin.
Mr.. Frank discovered real value
IN apparently worthless objects
through an intimate knowledge of
detail. The portrait of Stephen De-
catur was found, it is related, after
q long search during which Mr..
Frank is said to have identified it
by the midshipman's vest worn In
the picture.
Survivors include two sisters who
live IN Germany and a great-nephew
who lives in Harrisburg, Pa.
Funeral arrangements were to be
announced later.
