 A Communist state is in the mak- ing. It is modelled on the Russian pattern, but retains concessions to nationalistic characteristics. And Communist Yugoslavia Is coming in- to being more slowly than the Soviet, but in more orderly fashion.
 Agrarian reform already is going on. Big estates, many in the Danube basin formerly held by long time German coloniSts, are being divided among the peasants.
 Rates Remain High
 The state owns industries, rail- roads and all transport. It has laid claim to mining properties, many of which were developed by foreign capital.

Moral World Up 10 Women WOmanh0od To SOVo
 ankind-eEaVOn

Swampscott. Mass, May 23-CUP) Women must organize to save so- ciety from the political bungling of men, according to a Boston attor- ney and Rhodes scholar.
 Axel B. Craven told 2,OO0 dele gates to the Massachusetts State Federation of Women's Clubs 54th annual convention last night that the time has come when the world needs ''an atomic moral bomb in the shape of organized woman hood"
 Women as class possess and use the virtues of gentleness, love, understanding and charity more han men," he asserted. These virtues have never been tried as an antidote to the problems of mankind.
 Men frame the laws, devise the rules and develop the procedures. The fundamental premise of them all is that of logic, reason and ex- perience. That these laws. have failed to promote the common good goes without saying.
 Tt would seem an organized womanhood, determined to apply the native virtues of mankind, in- stead of brute force, has a better chance of evolving a successful so- ciety than the organized political forces represented by men"

Million Spent
 To Meet Boston Fire Measures

Boston, May 23-(UP)-MaSSa- chusetts business establishments al- ready have spent nearly $1,OO0, 900 to conform with new fire laws en- acted after the CocOanut Grove night club holocaust which claimed 491 lives here in 1942, it was learned today.
 Night clubs, theaters and hotels have shared the major portion Of this expense. However, Boston real estate operator described as "coloSsap the amount of money that Massachusetts apartment and lodging house owners also must spend to comply with the new reg ulations.
 It was understood that some rooming houses proved to be such fire traps that they will be con- demned.
 Two of the main factors contrib uting to the high death toll in the Grove tragedy were lack of ade- quate lighting and too many in- flammable decorations.
 The State Public Safety Depart ment's inspection division has or- dered night clubs to install auxih- ary lighting and to remove con- siderable amount of decoration.
 Since September, l943, the de- partment's 30 inspectors have viSit- ed 23,92l establishments and or dered 2,52O buildings to improve their exits. During that period business establishments have spent an estimated $082, 900 for better ex- it's and lighting.

door. The rates are no cheaper than in the capitalistic countries. The government supplies me with clean el1eets, tidy room with hot bath once c week, and fair service.
 To eat I 60 to . gowernznent-oper- ated restaurant or cafe. The food is good, but the menus get n1onot- ono1s. The prices average 41 for breakfast, lunch, 426O, and supper @ and up. An eigl1t-ousnce glass of good beer costs 12 cents.
 Courteous but slow walters are not supposed to take 6 tip, which Is regarded aS ''Indemocratic.." But usually they take whatever iS Of- fered.
 Can Step OuE
 Those who want to dine in style can go to goveE11me11t-operated lux ury restaurants. There they find caviar and all the dedcacies. The bill is two-tl1irds higher than in the black market restaurants in Rome.
 A permanent resident shops at the neighborl1ood co-op stores formed by get-together agreements among butchers, grocers, hardware and drygoods merchants. They look like a e-and-dime, and have fre- Quent bargain sales at marked down prices.
 For amusement you can go to the state operated theater, ballet and movies. Those I saw would not get rave noticeS in the American press. Opera tickets cost $1O2 for box seats.
 Sports Controlled
 ef-theater possibilities include the governments cafe '"Trokadero," where government produced wine and liquor Is available, to be drunk to the strains of . government-op- erated gypsy orchestra.
 In the field of sports there is government horse racing, football, basketball, boxing, tennis and cross country runs. I was told that 22,00O persons took part in crogs-country runs In Serbia alone on a certain Sunday.
 Almost every YugoSlav I have seen appears to be cooperating fully with the Communist program. There is some grumbling, but they are working hard for the future of the country. There Is considerable in- efficiency and mistakes but the Yu,- goslavS are said to be learning fast.
