And fsirtce, contemporary society,, to a young Prussian, means a .Communistic state, Russian school children get a heavy dose of Marxism along with the three It's. In their work and in .their play, they are forever being inoculated with the idea that everything, which is not Communist in its origin and purpose is more or less worthless. But Maxim Gorby,, famous llussian novelist, got curious, Recently, and decided to find out just how the child mind re acts to all, this. So he set to work to make a survey pf the Russian school child's views 011 literature. Russian school children, it should be explained, are allowed to read plenty of Ixioks by non-Marxist writers; but the books that are most constantly put in front of them, the ones they are urged to read, are, 01 course, Communistic.

Meanwhile the labor disputes board appointed by President Roosevelt had issued no statement regarding the, status of strike settlement negotla- ttons.
