Soviet Women
Taking Part In
Polish March
Number of Them in Russian
Army. Make Good Avia-
tors and Chauffeurs.

BREST-LITOVSK within Rus,
sian-Occupied Poland), Oct. l.
Ruddy-cheeked communist wo'
men are included in the red ar
my forces sent into Poland in the
soviet Russian invasion from the
east.
Joseph Stain dispatched part
of the women's forces in the ar
my to help occupy this former
Polish section of the White Rus
sian Ukraine.
The women are chiefly aviators
and chauffeurs.
Seven women aviators and q
number of chauffeurs are sta
toned in the sectional army
headquarters here.
They have separate quarters
and wear two types of uniforms
one of regular army style and
the other with a skirt.
The women filters were said to
perform their duties Of flying
bombing planes, bombing and
machine-gunning under war con-
ditions as competently as their
military brothers.
This correspondent was driven
about the streets of Brest-Lltovsk
by a broad-faced, red-cheeked
smiling girl of about 10. She wore
a regular uniform Her army cap
fitted neatly over her clipped
hair.
She handled the automobile as
expertly as she did the cigarette
stuck in a corner of her mouth
She appeared capable of handling
the revolver strapped about her
waist equally as well.
Despite the equality which
governs the red army, the feml-
nine corps receives little more
attention than the men.

f. D. r. Asks Monopoly Group
To Watch For PrOfiteering

WASHINGTON, Sept. 80. -
President Roosevelt asked the
monopoly committee today to be
a watchdog against profiteering
growing out of the war in Europe
Instructing the committee to
keep "a constant eye" on prices
of basic materials, the President
said in letter to Chairman o.
Mahoney, Democrat, Wyoming.

well qualified to invoke the
forceful check of impartial in
CURRY on this kind of un-Ameri-
can activity ~"
The President added that he
thought the committee, which has
been studying the whole econo-
mic structure of business, "can
we'll become an important part of
our first line of national defense
against ugly and inhuman greed.
The letter addressed O'Maho-
ney, who broke with the Presi-
dent over the Supreme court bill
in 1887, as Dear Joe".
Obviously pleased with the as
signment, O'Mahoney said he
would call the committee into
special session soon to outline
thods Of bringing its previous
study Of price structures up to
date.
He emphasized that there
would be no disposition to inter
fere with normal price fluctua-
tions, especially those brought
about by increased. wartime de-
mand for agricultural products
The committee, he said, will in
terest itself only in unwarranted
and unjustified price increases.

and doubtless the writer's and the or
ators who have used it had in mind
the last world war; Leaving that out
of the question for a minute, let US see
what the actual history is. The Unit
ed States has, ever since it became a
great industrial factor in the world,
been munitions depot for warning
nations" usually trading with both
sides. American trucks and tractors
carried the Japanese into Manchukuo
and Missouri mules packed Musso-
lini s mountain batteries in Ethiopia.
1t is not too much to say that prac-
tically every Latin American revolu-
ton was munitioned from our gun fac
tories. Japan and China years ago,
drew their military supplies largely
from the United States. The same
thing was true of the Russo-Japanese
! war. Great Britain was a munitions
depot for the confederacy in our war
between the States. Great Britain, it
may also be remembered, paid us some
millions of dollars in the matter OF
the Alabama claims.
1t also runs in my mind that in our
war with Spain over Cuba, we bought
extensively from England and even
managed to pick up a cruiser think
| it was the New Orleans-with some
eptitiousness, perhaps, but we got
the ship. And yet none of these cpl
sodes brought war TO the supplying
nation.
Now, when we come to the World
War, our entry into that conflict was
not because we were munitions de-
pot for the Allies-though that may
have been a contributing factor-but
because we had no other place to go
when Germany started sinking our
merchant ships-regardles of their
destination or their cargoes-in her
submarine campaign to clear the ocean
of carriers.
The Kaiser's BID Tor Mexico
There was the incident of the Zim-
hermann note, which Mark Sullivan
so graphically described in his history
perhaps the final straw that put us
into war. This note was an order from
the German Ministry of Foreign At
fairs to the German Minister to Next
co. After telling him of their intent
| to make unrestricted submarine war
fare, it went on to this effect: "We
make Mexico proposal Of alliance

gether, make peace together, geneross

MYSTERIOUS CHESTS ARE
NATIONS UNUSUAL SECRET

Four locked and sealed cases of Lin
coin manuscripts which are not to be
opened until July 26, 1947, promise
tn become the nation s most myster-
ious treasure chests, accarding to DR.
l.. A. Warren, director of the Lincoln
National Life Insurance Company
Lincoln Museum in Fort Wayne, In
diana. These cases were impounded in
the Library Of Congress in 1923 by
Robert Lincoln, last surviving son of
the President
Much speculation exists about the
character Of the writings in the boxes.
1t is DR.. Warren's belief, however,
that a more interesting question re-
lates to Robert Lincoln willingness
to modify the original secrecy agree
ment so soon after the papers had
been sealed. He submitted his revis-
ion on January 16, 1926, less than
three years after the papers had been
impounded.
On that date, Mr.. Lincoln wrote in
letter to DR.. Putnam of the Library
of Congress: cit is now my desire to
modify the condition Of the above
deed with REGARD 10 inspection
of these papers, and I do hereby modi-
fly it., so as to give access to said pa
pers to my wife, Mary Lincoln, and
to vest in her power and authority at
any time during her life or until the
expiration of the 81 years from my
death to grant permit to examine
said papers to any person or persons
who in her judgement and discretion,
should have permission to make such
an examination.
It was apparently important that
some member Of the family should de
eide who would have the privilege OF
inspecting the papers. The need for
such inspection did not make itself
felt during Mrs. Lincoln Is life, how

ties to bombing planes over here, pre-
viding it pays cash for them and car
ries them away in its own ships, and
at its own risk. The opposition conten-
ton is that this would amount to- an
alliance with Great Britain and France
when and if the big explosion occurs
in Europe, for they alone have the
ships and the cash to profit by this
program, and that therefore the only
way to insure peace for America is
to forbid all traffic, with warning
nations.
Of course there are other elements
il both programs-such as the prohi-
bition of Americans sailing on pass
enger vessels belonging to belligerents
and other limitations, which would
prevent our citizens from engaging il
business or placing themselves in such
situations as might involve us in inter
national controversies.
Out Of the comments Of these con-
ditions has developed such slogans as
this, from Mr.. Paul Mallon's column
"The cash and carry plan would make
the o. 8. munitions depot Of Britain
and France in case Of war. No mum

comment: can explanation doing
more credit to Mr.. Zimmerman 8 le-
galism and morals than to his intelli-

I have frequently seen it stated by
supposed authorities on the subject
that, had the Kaiser realized that the
whole might of America would ulti
mately be thrown into the scale
against him, he would never have gone
into the World War. 1t is on this same
theory, perhaps, that Herr Hitler may
be influenced to abandon his scheme
of conquest by the measure which
would shut him off from supplies
while affording opportunity for hi:
potential enemies to get them. Thi:
within the backgrounds huge
