With the fixed price ?20.67 and the world price approximately $30, t Ifold miners were handicapped so long- as they could not ex- port to the London or Paris markets. . . ; --.-. The next step will be the establishment of a free market vh.f fa thi country, the same as they had in post-civil war-days. Cold thfeh becomes a commodity to be traded in like copper " or rubber. And speculators play the gold market up or . down, the same as cotton or pork. This means that in addi "jtion to fluctuations' in. commodity prices -amonjr themselves, ., there is. fluctuation in the price of gold with respect to cur - , rency. Business is made even moreof a gamble than it was. . -5 Undoubtedly there: will be a drive for true inflation as distinct from pseudo-inflation Financial commentators fully shows signs of sagging. Any morning we may wake up with a dollar devalued by executive decree. Squeezing Ford WE ARE not particularly enthusiastic about the moves of the administration to put the squeeze on Henry Ford. Jb ord was the real originator perity by paying good wages. T 1 1 1 J 1 ues nave Deen consiaerea ruiniess, on me wnoie he has set the pace in all mass production industry for high wages to workmen. NRA is in some respects founded on the Ford Idea. So it doesn't set very well to have Gen. Johnson shove a pen in his hand and tell him to "sign here" on a code drawn by an organization he is not a member of. Ford has always played a lone hand both in auto making and in banking. 1 His wages and conditions of labor ara now probably better than the auto code prescribes.. He will be a hard man to drive. 1 We see no particular glory-in grabbing him by the scruff of the neck and shoving: him "into line." V ; ' . Cows for Russian Peasants THE Russian government is offering a million peasant families cows which will become their private property. The government is thus undertaking, to correct what turned out to be a grave economic error. , A few years ago the peas ants sacrificed nearly all their farm animals. Between gov ernment exactions of feed grains and meat animals the peas ; ants quit raising farm stock. The result has been disastrous. Work animals were too few in number; and cows and meat animals so few the peasant families did not get enough to eat. Starvation has stalked through the country ther- past , few months as it has not since the 1921 famine. ' Thus does thejsoviet modify its system to meet conditions as they arise. Possession of cows by peasants does not mean the restoration o the private prof it system; but it does mean that reposing-toa much control in the state leads to inevitable breakdown. Even Russia must rely in a measure on individ ual initiative and responsibility. . ' , . The ' German dictator manages thimga dilf erently.

Leni could- hear him gasp 'for ) breath. Half of it was insanity and half of it. was sheer human bru tality. Lent waited for the storm to ex- pend itself.. Opening her eyes sha aaw Gerstenfield standing between . her and the -window, his dishevelled form away tag from side to side- like an animal's, hia fists clenched at bis Aides. The vision trembled indistinctly through the involuntary tears that warn in her eyes. - "Ton dont know what you're saying!" she said in a low voice. "You aro out of your head. This afternoon you said you were my friend you cared for mi : At these words Gerstenfield 1 quieted, became ominously silent. He stood, looking down at her for - a-moment and then sank down, on the bed beside her. : He did not, at first, touch her and Leni lay motionless, scarcely breathing. Her very quietness, she hoped, would begin to calm him. His eyes became - hollow and hungry fastened upon her in a futile effort to absorb her beauty and draw it into himself. - Thus, close to her, ho was con scious of her faint breathing an exhalation of -freshness and deli cate fragrance that rept into hia being and swirled warmly in his throbbing veins.

To be reminded of other women did noth ing-to cool the embittered desire and the tide of bitterness that ran in a hot pressure through his veins. One of his hands stretched out and he gradually laid it on her waist. It was the. first time for aa long as ahe had known him that be. , had aver touched her in ; this way. L: . , .
