OFFICE SEEKERS
IN SOVIET DON'T
KISS THE BABIES
Moscow '(IP) A Soviet politician
unlike some of his American broth
ers, does not feel constrained to
kiss babies, or distribute loilypops
to children, put neither does he ne
glect them. -A
case In" point Is Paul Postl-
her, so-called "political boss of
the Ukraine," who was sent to
Kharkov recently by the polit
burcau, Postlshev, a friend of Josef
Btalin's and a man with high po
litical ambitions, , has endeared
himself to the population of Khar
kov by various little attentions such
as an American congressman migm
show his constituents.
Recently he received a letter
from a nine-year-old girl who com-
plained 'that she and her friends
were not allowed to play In the
Jiublio gardens.
.Instead of handing this minor
matter 'to a subordinate, Postlshev
personally replied to the child.
"Comrade Llnochka," he wrote,
1 share your Indignation. Of course
you can play In the garden. It was
made tor that. Only, I ask you,
don't run on the grass and dont
pick the 'lowers, Greetings!"
"Die 'trials of true love under So
viet law wore experienced recently
by a young Moscow doctor and his
intended Odessa bride. The two met
while the uhyslolan was on a vaca
tion In Odesso and the girl accom
panied him -back to Moscow where
they Intended to get married.
On arriving here they went 'to!
tne marriage bureau (viewing, Inci
dentally the ever-present sign In
such places: "Kissing Is lnfectu-
ous") and asked to have their vows
registered.
The registrar looked qyer their
passports. (Each Soviet citizen car
ries a passport authorizing him to
Jive in a certain town.)
"Your marriage cant be per-
lormea nere," tne attendant said.
'The woman has no Moscow pass
port. It Is for Odessa." And the
woman oould not obtain a Moscow
passport without being the doctor's
wife, which would assure her joint
occupancy of his room in this over
crowded olty with Its acute housing
prooiem.

PLYMOUTH ROCK
STEPPING STONE
Plymouth, Mass. (IP) Plymouth
Rook, America's birthstone, Is the
actual landing place of the Pil
grims, according to evidence com
piled by Henry W. Royal, curator
of Pilgrim Hall.
Sceptical tourists scoff at the
suggestion that this Is true, point
ing to the widespread belief that
the rock is merely a symbol and
that the original Immigrants did
not even see It.
Royal points out that the shore
of Plymouth harbor was flat and
sandy, and difficult to land on from
a boat. It was natural, he says, for
the Pilgrims to look for a rock and
what is now known as Plymouth
Rock was the only rock along the
snore.
Thomas Faunce. last presiding
eiaer or tne First cnuren, who died
In 1741 at 94, once quoted Ids fath
or, who came to this country In

SILVER STAR FOR
MEDFORO VETERAN
Washington, June 21 (P) The
war department announced Wed
nesday award of the sliver star to
Gain Robinson of Medford, Ore.,
for gallantry in action near Qreves
Farm, France, July 15-16, 1918.
Lieutenant Robinson (10th field
artillery, third division), according
to the citation, displayed excep
tional courage and devotion to duty
when, although 1U, he refused to
be evacuated and remained in the
open despite the heavy shell fire,
often taking the place of the
wounded and exhausted men, and
thereby inspiring his men to re
newed efforts. 1
TAKE-OFF SITE
FOR BALLOON IS
SAID TO BE IDEAL
Rapid City, 8. D. U)-From
natural "cup" In the edge of the
Black Hills, eleven miles south of
here, the newest stratosphere bal
loon ascension will start this month.
Commanded by Major William .
Kepner, a huge gas-bag, lifting an
air-tight gondola weighted with al
most a ton of scientific Instruments,
will soar upward.
The site for the take-off, chosen!
after months of careful surveys, Is
an open, level almost round plot of
land some seven acres in extent. It
is entirely surrounded by wooded
hills, rising from 500 to 1,000 feet.
These hills, it Is anticipated, will
cut off vagrant air currents which
might bring disaster at the take
off. Not. until the great balloon has
risen above the protecting hills will
it become a target for the wind. By
that time, Major Kepner believes, It
will have achieved a sufficient alti
tude to be beyond danger. '
There Is little doubt, It was said.
that the winds will carry the bal
loon, as it rises, east, and perhaps
slightly south. The prevailing air
currents are In that direction, blow
ing down from the Black Hills. :
When this fact is considered, the
advantages of the site chosen- for
the take-off are obvious. It lies at
the eastern extremity of the Black
Hills. Once It lifts over the sur
rounding foothills of the "cup," the
balloon, drifting east, will be In no
danger from high peaks or hills. It
wui nave before it tne rolling plains
oi south Dakota.
Rapid City, with more than 10,-
000 population, Is the only sizable
town In the area, which is only a
few miles from Mount Rushmore,
where Gutzon -Borglum is carving
from the mountain side his famous
face of George Washington.
Smaller foothills villages, most of
them under 1,000 in nopulation and
catering 10 me vacation trade, sur
round the take-off site.

to be one of the largest litters of
blue foxes was reported here. A

birth to 15 pups, 13 of them ore still

and free democratic institutions."
He said that in Europe it has stood
"squarely across the path of eco

"In free government and In free
competition In business, sanely reg
ulated to proteot the weak against
the strong, lies the hope of the
world," the publisher of the Chi
cago Dally News said.
Col. Knox' talk was a summary of
observations made during a two
months tour of Italy, Australia,

In Italy, Col. Knox said, the'
planned economy under Mussolini
has resulted in "the utter and com
plete destruction of every vestige
of popular government" with de
mocracy "scorned and laughed at
as a huge mistake."
Austria, he continued "Is the
most absolute dictatorship Europe
has yet seen in the person of Chan
cellor Dollf uss, who professes and,
I think, sincerely believes that he
Is appointed by God."
Russia, he said, presents the pic
ture of one man, who is merely sec
retary of the Communist party,
ruling 169,000,000 people through'
true afiwflw communist ana an
array, he said which Is one of the

Is It a Case of Knocking?
Or Walking Right In.
The Capital Journal is welcomed with open door at
nearly ten thousand homes in Marion and Polk counties.
Over thirty thousand readers want the Capital Journal
enough to pay for it hence, we would say, it is the best
advertising medium, by far, .in the Willamette valley.
Some merchants, the past few years, in their frantic ef
forts to reduce selling costs have purchased advertising
in mediums at less cost per inch than they would hav
.. paid in the Capital Journal BUT, they have found that
they were also getting less for what they paid.
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTION FOR GENUINESS
that is why the Capital Journal carries more advertising than all other paid me
'diums in Salem combined.
You will do well to join those who have learned from experience.
