The gunboats, aided by a how

"Old Betsy" an ancient French
six-inch cannon, did her best in

from place to place. It seemed to
the besiegers that there must be
several cannon in the stockaded

FACE

both in and out of government, a
fairly large number of persons
who have lost faith in the prin-

what is going on, it will find one
of these days that our basic poll

have been hopelessly under

See Russia Fighting On With
Armament Industry in Siberia
BY conqres smon Frances ?. Bolton

THE struggle between William
L Knudsen of OPM and Leon
Henderson of OPACS with regard
to machinery to govern priorities
goes merrily on. 1t is difficult to
say how defense production can be
spurred on if priority control rests
with some agency other than that
responsible for production, OPM.
THE House Banking and Cur
L rency Committee has been hav-
ing hearings on Price Fixing with
Leon Henderson testifying for eight
days. The hearings are to be re-
sumed in September. Too much
consideration cannot be given to
such far-reaching legislation. The
wrong step in this direction could
easily spell the end of free enter
prise.
MUCH has been made of the
Iva meeting somewhere at sea-
between the President. Prime Min
lister Churchill and Mr.. Hopkins.
General opinion seems to be that
the meeting had much to do with
the Russian situation. Supposedly,
Mr.. Hopkins has brought back
from Russia word that they were
anxious for equipment with which
to expand the armament industry IN
Siberia.
This would indicate that Russia
has in mind a continuous campaign
which will not allow Germany to
withdraw her men should Moscow
fall as expected. Reports have 1t
that in spite of German advances
official word from Russia is less
pessimistic than it has been.
