The London Times Errs.
Mr. Trotzky Writes.
Mr. Mellon Figures.
d (Copyright by King Feature!

Loon Trotzky, writing aliout
himself while waiting to re-cn-enter
Russia, says he is " years
old, and "my present deporta
tion to Constantinople is not
the last chapter of my life."
Fifty is young for a statesman,
or scientist, old for a revoltl
tiomst. .
Revolution is n strenuous
business, especially if you take
it seriously, as Trotzky does.
That he has lasled so 1kiit, with
enemies so numerous, and in
power, is surprising.
Trob.ky seems a little proud
that he never earned a living
by "cleaning codfish" or any
other manual laltor, which is
f Misprising in a friend of the
proletariat.
He became a revolutionist as
soon us he he-ran to think, was
imprisoned by the czar as a boy,
and often, later. His father
was a Russian Jewish farmer,
but he never worked on the
farm, except at keeping books.
Trotzky writes well, but a
little loosely, as one never "ed
ited." A well-read man, he
seems surprised tfutl Russia's
rulers kicked -4 1 i in out after
Lenin died. He must know that
this has been the fate of revo
lutionary leaders generally, ex
cept, that thus far he lias kept
Ins ftenn on-his sliouiilei's."

Secretary Mellon went over
liis national housekeeping books
last week, counted up the re
ceipts ami found he had
nOfl.OOO more than he expected.
As world's champion debt
payer, JI. Mellon cuts the pub
lic debt by $707100,000 more.
Anil I'ncte Sam, after paying
his bills, including additional
payments to railroads of $4.",
000,000, has a surplus of

The London Times, bought
and controlled by American
noiiey taken to England by
one branch of the Astors, says
there must be a tariff war
against the I'nited States.
Respectable but dull, the
Times says that the American
masses are to blame for the
proposed high tariff. They do
not understand that duties wil'
hurt their own pockets.

about the tariff only what they

Senator MeXary spoke briefly
on the appoint men t of members
of the federal farm board created

farm relief measure.
"It will only be a short time
now until President Hoover an
nounces the completed personnel of
the farm relief hoard," the sen

to organize and render assistance
to the crops to be harvested this
year."
"The farm relief act recently
passed by congress and approved
by the president, marked the end
of the seven-year controversy over
this major subject," Senator Me

the stabilizing corporations of the
