The situation can be properly understood only when one realizes the bearing1 of Moscow's "five-year program" on world trade.' ; This program assumes a nationalization of industry, bank ing, shipping, transportation, land and trade; the govern ment actually controlling all resources and means of pro duction. . Thus labor may be conscripted and wages fixed without reference to supply or demand. By this system it seems Russia hopes to be able to turn out minerals, grain and manufactured products for sale at a price under the cost of production in countries where labor is free. ' Already the United' States has begun to feel the effects of this new system. ' The threat of a flood of cheap Russian coal and pulp wood consigned to this country is a menace to American miners and producers who have already had sev eral years of distress. It is futile to deny that a system which would draft labor and confiscate raw materials would offera serious problem to a country which has stimulated production by the ince'n tive'of high ,wiiges; shoi;t .hp'ui and leisure . for -recrea'tidh. How: would countries lik& (.He; linked States buyable-to meet vjthis competition? High duties aiid Embargoes will leep''out ..the products of forced labor, but would ilot' .help; the" United i States, for example, if she must enter Into competition with Russian goods in other, countries' where 'the latter are 'ad mitted free. American labor foresees the ultimate solution of the prob lem in ai, inevitable revolt of ,the Russian workman from this new form of conscription. ; RECKLESS DRIVING Something for speeders' and reckless' drivers to read, for . the good of all is the report, by the department of commerce on automobile accidents for the last twelve months. On the basis of data from 76 cities the automobile death rate for the year was 26.6' per 100,000 of population, as com pared with 21 in the previous year. This is an increase of eleven percent in one year. "' " ' These figures' prove the existence of a lot of reckless driving and drivers, and they should cause a lot of thinking. Although the records might suggest the contrary to be true, there is no operator of a motor car with such' hardness of heart and depravity of conscience as to prompt him to de liberately run down a playing child or off-guard pedestrian or effect a collision with some other vehicle. The vising traffic death' rate should teach the most irresponsible to observe the principles of safety. ' ' ' 1 The'man who takes the chances is usually hypnotized with the idea that ho is immune from danger and, harm.' v It has been a long time since drug stores were only pilling stations.

She is "carryliiK on at a Job she begun mnny years to. It was back In 1017 on the night that the roll of the house of repre sentatives was called to record a vote on whether or not this country would enter the World wnr that Jennettc Rankin broko into world prominci.ro. Then she was the first woman ever elected to the congrPM of the t'nltrd States. When her name wa.i culled she could not answer. When cries of "Vote, vote." were hurled at her by her coIleaKUes, with tears In her eyes and la a voice, acarcelv audible, she voted "No." Today Jennette Rnnktn feels the same way. In her little office In Washington at headquarters for the National Council for the Prevention of War she Is hard at work In an etfort to .nure peace for this country for all time. senate chamber she was to bo seen jWlth eagernesa she watched progress of the treaty through it various ( stagca.

Her hair haa grown Braver, her face bears evidence of the lapse of years from the time she was in con gress until now.

These superiorities are not sales claims; they are real. ' ? Any Goodyear : Dealer will be glad, to demonstrate the facts. . ' ;.' But don't be confused when the tire dealer with some thing "special" to sell backs you into a corner. Just remember the one fact after years of experience, after test ing this value and that, ".more people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind!", There must be a valid reason for this. There is: Goodyear Tires are definitely superior, in the two main parts of a tire. The Goodyear All -Weather Tread is superior in traction. Wmrm '".the time to - get The Goodyear Supertwist Carcass superior in vitality and long life. is The facts certainly are: Goodyear, Tires ' do give greater value. ! As far back as 1916, it be came a fact that more people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind. ' ' Every year since that time it has been increasingly true that more people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind. Today this preference for Goodyears runs into millions: millions more people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any other kind. There can be only one conclusion: Good year Tires mutt be better and at present prices they are a matchless bargain. Now is the time to get yours.
