Haywood, known in the United States as “Big Bill Haywood” will return to this country to serve his 20 year prison term at Leaven- worth, he declared today in an ex­ clusive interview with the United Press by wireless. MOSCOW. Russia, May 16. — ( By United Press —| wireless to the “ Bill Bill ” Hay-1 Copyrighted.) - wood today told the story of his dis- appearance from the United States in an exclusive, interview to the United Press by wireless. The fol­ lowing is the story as told by Hay- wood himself: “Here's my story: On March 3. I retired to the home of friends ini New York. Three weeks later I ar­ rived at Moscow. I shall remain here* for the convention of the third in­ ternational and other meetings. I will return to the United States with- out question. If I cannot return be­ fore my bonds are cancelled the government may have its equivalent of a pound of flesh which friends deposited for my appearance. But my bondsmen will not suffer any fi­ nancial loss from the cancellation of the bonds. I was awakened by a thunder­ OUS pealing of church bells on March 24, and informed that I was in Mos- cow. the capital of workers repub­ lic. The dream of m life it'd come true. Here children do not toil their lives away but are sent to school. They don't receive penny meals. but the largest and best food sup- plies in the nation. The women are absolutely freed, not nationalized as claimed in hitter lies told in the United States. Every worker re­ ceives a month's vacation annually. Industrially, Russia is making won­ derful progress. It is the hope of a world. Germans Unable to Purchase Shoes; Mend Their Own Street Vendors Sell Rubber Half Soles By MIRIAM HEICHNER HAMBURG, May 17. — At the corner of Moenkelbergerstrausse and an intersecting street there is a big bank building. Just outside the bank building a curious crowd gathered today. Litle papermarks were fluttering out of pockets and bill folders; something was being eagerly bought. The nucleus of the crowd was a grubby little old man, who plied a busy trade from a small pushcart which had once been a baby buggy. This had been equipped with a crosslaid plank on which was nailed a box, and from this elabor­ ate base the grubby little man operated. He was selling, for two marks the set, an arrangement of patent needles by the aid of which boots could be mended by any novice at home. Patches of varying size, of course, cost extra i money, and au extra packet of whitey-brown thread could also be had. A tall, bearded man i with the inevitable brief case — I believe that bread and margarine sand­ wiches ride, for the most part, in these cases — was just before me in the purchasing line. When my turn came the old gentleman who owned the baby carriage was very kind, and showed me just how the work should be done. This matter of shoe mending is one of the highest importance in Germany. With shoes that before the war cost between 12 and 18 marks costing now 250 and up one welcomes the appearance of a new mending device. Later, 1 entered the bank, on business and showed my discovery to an employe there. • He speaks English like an Oxford graduate, and I know he earns about 20.- 000 marks a year. He laughed at my purchase and then, quite gravely, held up his own shoe for inspection. "See this rubber sole” he said, It sosts only 12 marks. and you nail it on yourself. You can buy them at any pushcart at have a shoe really resoled costs 60 marks—too much! POSSIBLE GERMAN INVASION AROUSES FRANCE Is Returned to Mt. Ashland Is Climbed By Week Priso.i After 10 Yrs.
