Controversy Over School
Election Brings Letters
From Patrons in District

10 hove been out encouraging the
l.avers TO vote in school bus bond
s,aat;on as there has always been
Inf of hard feeling about the way
= a. :" last bond election was handled.
'' 70 We can't get bonds across with
s. come of the tactics that were
v us in the past, we had better do
Iu,tho.,t the improvements. I feel
.sst when the taxpayer hires a
nnerintendent, his job is in the
sesool and not in directing elections
md electioneering. -.
when I drove school bus twenty
,.arx ago the bus was just as
s.nv.,ed as they are now.
We can't provide seating room
1or all Most Of us have paid for a
~ to hang onto strap in a
.tr ,r car at some time or another
and pIad to have the ride in that
fsshion We can't overcome the
rrmded condition with six new
M,,aes II we take the old ones off. II
e must have Is in. seat space for
.sch pupil as you will probably be
told 4 bus eight feet wide with
.eats across will seat after taking
49, for isle. Seats at least 80 in.
ANN center to center, that calls for
: body Is feet long to seat 81 pu-
uik. The highway patrol would not
Allow anything much longer than
that. As to safety, lot of care
should be taken in picking the
drivers.
GIVE our bus drivers some as
alrance Of a longer job and you will
see some great Improvement in
prtvstely-owned BUSES.
The bus drivers are taxpayers,
where otherwise it might be some
one that is here today and gone
tomorrow.
II We must have buses, what Is
the big hurry? Give the taxpayers
time to talk and think things over.
You know it will take them twenty
years to pay for the bill
Now about all the savings on OPP
Grating district-0wned buses. Let's
buy something with the savings we
made on the one bus we have own
ed for a number of years, and saw
tngs made on the new school.
We thought we would see a large
saving In every class room as well
as fire insurance, lights, heating and
the like. The savings made on new
district-owner busses every cent of
1t will be spent by the bond holder.
I would like to urge everyone to
vote. Let's see where we stand and
then If I am wrong, / for one will
consent to new buses. But if the
bonds don't carry we will have
buses by lease without recourse, I
am told by many. Better give the
tax payer little say there also.
We sometimes get to the point
where we would like a chance to
have some say about how and for
what our money is spent.
Mr.. Black told us the new busses
would last 20 years. Look around
and see just how few cars we have
on the road that are that old.
You can't have progress by going
INTO debt for everything we need.
Let's not blame the directors
nsh powered statesmen are working
on this truck deal.
Yours truly,

WARNING

Chief of Police Milton Libby
wishes to remind the Kennewick
citizens that there is q state law
stating that at the sound of the
fire siren, or any other siren,
every driver should get out of the
line of traffic and stop. 1t also
states that all motor vehicles
should be at least 600 feet away
from a fire truck Several cars
we're given tickets today because
of the fact that on the way to
the fire they waited for the first
truck to pass, but failed to wait
for the second. MIR. Libby states
that people must be sure there is
not another fire truck coming
before going on. Also do not run
into any dead-end streets, but
stay on the highway.

w allied Kremlin
Holds Secrets
OF Red Regime

NTOSCOW.-Sovie Russia is
lv1 ruled from within a mys-
terious city in the heart of Mos
COW, the vast Kremlin whose in
scrutable goings-on are hidden
behind a 60-foot wall, armed
guards and drawn curtains.
All the secrecy of the van
ished Russian Orthodox
church = and more - lies pro-
tected inside this palace which
was once the heart of the nations
religion as well as her government.
Where Russia's monks and czars
once walked there is now the guard
ed tread of Soviet commissars. But
today, as before Communism, the
sacred city of the Kremlin'' is still
the focal point of all Russian eyes.
They used to say "Above Moscow
is only the Kremlin and above the
Kremlin is only Heaven" Today
atheistic Russia ignores the last
part.
Stain Lives There.
No outsider knows within which of
the Kremlin's innumerable buildings
lives Josef Stain, for rare indeed
is the visitor who finds his way in
side this city's gates. Once there
he will find the church of st. Con-
stantine, Nicholas palace, Chudov
monastery (now military academy
and barracks), convent and courts
of justice. Surmounting the wall
are no less than 10 towers from
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1940-04-26

PRETTY, PLEASE!-Josef Sta
Tin, Soviet dictator, emerges from
the mysterious Kren,Iin to pose for
the Communist camera from the
tribune of Lenin's nausoleuns in
Red Square, Mosco,O.
which Soviet guards keep their eyes
peeled for marauders lurking in
Red square below.
Just as the Kremlin was a strong
hold for Czarists, so has it become
the sacred city of Communism, a
place where men of that creed gath
er from all parts Of the world. In
inches along its outer walls lie the
ashes of revolutionary heroes" in
Guiding John Reed, the American
journalist who turned Red. Also
there is the brotherhood grave" of
500 workers killed trying to storm
the Kremlin during the revolution.
Lenin Buried in Red Square.
And out in Red square, but still
within the shadow of this wall,
stands the gaudy tomb Of Lenin
from which Stain and other high
Soviets customarily watch troop
demonstrations and parades.
Night brings an added air Of mys-
terry to the Kremlin. At midnight
its chimes peal forth the "Interna-
tionale," Communism's song. But
the notes come haltingly because
the chimes were originally intended
to play "God Save the Car" and
have never been rebuilt. While the
chimes were still in pretty good
shape they made photograph re-
cording which is now broadcast
nightly from Moscow.
In winter the blood-red flag is
1oodlighted atop the Kremlin, pre-
senting a sharp and startling con-
trast with the snow-covered roofs.
It was this symbol of Communism
that the diplomats of Germany saw
when they entered the Kremlin last
autumn to sign that epochal treaty
which sent Hitler to war against Po-
land and the allies.
Finland's diplomats saw the same
emblem last December and again
in March, when the Soviet behe-
moth closed it's conquest against
smaller but drawer neighbor.
Known to be located inside the
Kremlin, therefore, is the most in
tegral part of Viacheslav Molotov's
foreign affairs commissariat, al
though the foreign Office itself is
opposite the Lubyanka prison. The
politbureau of nine members meets
in the Kremlin as does the council
Of peoples commissars, or the Rus
sian cabinet.
Stain has always been present
when noted foreign diplomats have
called at the Kremlin, but he does
not stay there all the time. He
maintains several country homes,
though nobody knows which of them
he is visiting at any given time.
Perhaps it is the Kremlin's threat
ening atmosphere that makes visit
ing ENJOYS capitulate to Russian de-
mands, yet Stain himself Is always
affable. It is known that after the
Soviet German pact was signed last
autumn he remarked to Joachim
Won Ribbentrop, NOW let's drink
glass of our bad Soviet champagne"

any assurance that it would, in hap
py cases, be long enough. A fixed
constitutional limitation to a single
term of Office is highly arbitrary
and unsatisfactory from every point
of view.
Favored Two Terms.
"Put the present customary
limitation of two terms into the
