DUT there is another side to-
- the story, not being told.
This country always has run to
extremes. Thirty years ago il
was dominated by selfish finan-
cial cliques without any sense
of social responsibility or the
good of the nation or its people.
They got theirs in 1929. They
got il because they became too
big, took in too much territory.
Men never seem TO know how
to use power wisely.
The Fascist movement in Ger
many and Italy would today be
strong had it not taken in too
much territory. Napoleon COM
mitted the same error. History
Is unanimous with evident
proofs that. those who feed on
power always commit suicide by
their unwise excuses.
The unions are now at that
crossroads. Obviously they must
change from the Petrillo atti-
tude (radical cZarist leader
ship so prevalent among them
or they will kill themselves.
Their tendency to dominate the
whole policy of the country in
the past few years cannot con-
tinue indefinitely without build
ing up a public resentment
which will engulf them. and no
doubt lead to the opposite ex-
IRENE.
Some wise men know. give

I dare say, some Republicans,
too, who believe ii possible for
the United States to cooperate
politically and with mutual
good faith with Russia.
When I speak of Russia I
refer, of course, to the Russian
Communist government, not the
millions of Russian human
beings who exist to serve that
government.
That they are brave and good
fighters, industrious and much
more intelligent than the Rus
slams who went to the first
world war under the car Is
denied by no man.
But the Russian government
and its secret international or
ganization amounting to con-
spiracy against other nations,
including our own, which trust
Russia in spite of the record,
seem to me not to have changed
their attitude in the slightest
degree during our cooperation
in this war.

WASHINGTON, Dec. s.


W There is no use in trying to
deny that much of business
swallowed its hopes hard last
election day.
A quiet pessimism in those
ranks has been evident since
then. One nationally known
corporation head expressed
widespread viewpoint when he
said:
1--WE have accumulated re-
serves and IL Dewey had won
we would have spent these In
expectation of postwar expan-
sion; now we will save them for
taxes and eventualities which
may be imposed upon us.
Openly the big Recommending
companies (CBS and RCA)
threw up their hands and
granted Petrillo of the must
clans union a bounty up to 5
cents each on the sale of every
record for no good reason ex-
cept that the government had
failed to bring Petrillo to terms
in a long strike.
The musicians do not need
the money and Petrillo has only
promised he will expend it TO
further the appreciation of mu-
sic. The public, of course, will
pay it, as usual.
A wave of strikes and greatly
increased wage demands are ex-
pected by all after victory in
Europe has relieved somewhat
the patriotic pressure upon the
unions. etc. etc.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
N. S. ST am So and have a
low blood pressure and am ane-
mic. What foods will improve
these conditions?
Answer-Liver, eggs, spinach
and carrots for the anemia. Quit
worrying about the low blood
pressure. 1t never hurt any
one.
T. Would you please tell
me why a dentist refuses to
use gas for extraction?
Answer-Partly because a To-
cal anesthetic is just as effec-
tive, perhaps because of the
personal idiosyncracy of the pa
tent. Some people take gas
we'll, some do not.
