GIANTS DEATH:
End of an Era? .

The battleship Oklahoma, first Of
the so-called "super-dreadnaughts,"
might well be recorded in history
as an accurate symbol Of the era
during which it ploughed the seas
for the. U. S. navy-heroic but futile.
In her 81 years of steel-clad exist
ence she never fired a shot at an
enemy.
Based at Berehaven, Ireland, dur
ing World War /, she saw no action;
and on December z, 1941, five Japa-
nese torpedoes sent the sturdy old
ship lunging to the bottom of Pearl
Harbor before her crew could man
the guns.
Raised to the surface and then
abandoned as not worth salvaging,
the Oklahoma was consigned to the
scrap heap and taken in tow for the
last long voyage across the Pacific.
Suddenly, $40 miles northeast Of
Pearl Harbor, the tragic battleship
listed heavily, as if tired of war and
its aftermath, and slipped into the
sea, three miles deep at that point,
for her final escape from the era Of
violence that had been her ifespan.

POSTAL RATES:
Nav Go UD

A measure embodying the first
general revision of postal rates
since 1879 which would add about
10 million dollars a year to post
office revenues has been introduced
in the house of representatives.
The bill provides for 80 per cent
increase in parcel post rates and
would revise the air mail rate from
five to six cents an ounce. In
addition, the new plan would add
about 80 per cent year to present
scales for second-class mailing Of
newspapers and periodicals sent out
side the county in which they are
published.
Another provision would maintain
the current three-cent local and nom
local rate for first class mail beyond
the July deadline when those rates
were slated to revert to the former
two-cent level
The new rates wouIo go INTO ef-
feet go days after the bill is passed
and signed by the President.

A number of industries, able to

upward. Others, at the same time,
have been held down by govern

The main reason that farm and

Moscow. This university teaches
the youth of other lands to go
back home and wreck their
countries. Over the years it
has trained and returned to the
United States an estimated 800
disloyal Americans. They are
the leaven of some $4,000 Com
munists and 100000 pinkos in
our land; they are the high Of
ficers of a secret army now be-
ing drilled to overthrow our gov
ernment and social order"
Wood describes the super-secret
surroundings of the school, and what
happens to Russians who get curious
about it (Siberia or the firing squad
and goes on to describe the hush
hush atmosphere into which a stu
dent is inducted:
with matriculation, each student
takes revolutionary or party name
by which he will be known in Com
munist circles and outside activities.
Mark Aldanov in The Fifth Seal
tells of a party worker who had
so many aliases he forgot his bap-
tiSmal name"
According to Wood, the school has
a three-year course devoted pri-
marily to intensive indoctrination.
But there are also courses in labor
activities, party organization and
propaganda, as well as military tac-
tics and weapons.
When the student returns to his
own country. says Wood, ''he must
join trade unions or liberal societies
attend all meetings, pay dues
promptly, be eager for work, unite
others by party discipline until the
organization is blindly following the
party line in which he (the student)
is so well grounded"
Wood points out that Moscow does
not consider revolution imminent in
this country.
But he claims they are preparing
for the psychological moment I. {.

information. When the time comes
to attack city, ''the needed knowl-
edge Of where to attack to paralyze
it will be at hand-even such facts
as the knowledge that watchman
has a dog will have been recorded" 4"
According to the time schedule
of the Communists, says Wood, "a
city like Chicago could be captured
in less than 48 hours"
Despite these frightening
words, Wood says this in con-
clusion: "The Soviet schools for
foreigners are not too alarming
when they are stripped of mys-
terry. 1t would be well to know
their 80O-odd American alumni,
also their instructors and what
