THE readers of this column have been so generous
In their support of Mrs. Hester MrCuUough In
the libel suit against her by Larry Adler and Paul
Draper that I thought X would make a progress
report to them.
Pint, the funds have been coming In through
this column, Westbrook Pegler's column, and Igor
Caasinl's C holly Knickerbocker column. Pulton Lewis,
Jr. has done a splendid Job on the air, and I am
told that Bill Cunningham, that fine Boston re
porter, has Joined the volunteer.
Bo Mrs. McCullough can go on fighting. Her
danger was that she might be forced to settle or
apologise simply because neither she nor her hus
band had the cash for a law-suit. It Is now dear
that there can be enough cash even It aha has
to go up to the supreme court of the United States.
It la gratifying that most of the contributions have
come from people who could only eend 11, 12, or
thereabouts At tint that looked like a frightening
chore to those of us who had to open the envdopea
and read the maiL But soon, the warmth, the
enthusiasm, the exdtement of being so dose to
thousands of Americana who love their country and
Ita Institutions was even greater compensation than
the money.
Some of the rich contributed, but not many. The
very rich hare, with one or two exceptions, been
very silent
The story has been circulated and has been pub
lished that a settlement was being arranged. Up to
the moment of this writing, no such proposal has
been made by either side. It la possible that Adler
and Draper have something In mind, but If so,
they are keeping It to themselves.
They have changed their lawyers. Kenneth Brad
ley, their original lawyer, dropped the case, and
O. John Rogge was announced. Rogge has de
fended so many communists that it might have been
felt that hie presence In It would have labeled
Adler and Draper. The Dally Compass," a New
York publication, has been running some articles
by Rogge In one of which he tells:
-. , , (Carol King) asked me if I would take the
Gerhardt Eisler case which Involved a communist
who was trying his best to go back to where he
came from. I discussed the matter with her suf
ficiently to come to the conclusion that the house
committee on un-American activities had violated
Eisler1 rights even more outrageously than those
of the board members and the executive secretary
of the Joint anti-fascist refugee committee. Yet I
turned down the Eisler case. My excuse waa that
It would hurt my effectiveness because I would be
labeled. Today, I regret not having accepted the
Eisler case.
So, the lawyers who succeeded Kenneth Bradley
are Wiggin and Dana, a New Haven firm, counsel
for Yale university. Their standing In the state
of Connecticut Is high and they are regarded as
conservatives. Preliminary hearings have taken place,
at one of which Mrs. McCullough waa asked about
her relations with the columnists and commentators
who are defending her.
Well, if Mr. Frederick Wiggin Imagines he has
something there, he la oft the beam. 8o far as I
know, this Is strictly a news story of a libel suit In
which the defendant was deprived of the means to
defend herself by an outrageous law which left her
without funds by attaching everything she owned.
including a $2000 bank account -
That was the Issue, so far as I was concerned.
I never questioned the right of Larry Adler and
Paul Draper to aue her for libel because she as
sociated them with communist organizations some
thing that the attorney general of the United
States did In the first place when he declared those
organizations to be subversive. I never met Mrs.
McCullough until long after I was well In this.

Foreign Currency Bargains
Offered in Money Muddle
By BADER WTNGET
(Far Basa Dawsea)
NEW YORK. Nov. tt OP) Foreign
currency la moving across the bar
gain counters again despite devalu
ation. You can buy most foreign bank
notes .in .New .York .and .other
American dties openly and legally,
some at a substantial discount from
official rates. These bank notes are
the actual foreign currencies, like
our dollar bill. You can do the same
thing In places like Paris and
Geneva.
Consequently there is a lot of con
fusion In the mind of the average
roan. Wasnt devaluation of more
than SO foreign currencies supposed
to stabilize the foreign exchange
market? Weren't we supposed to
be getting back to what the experts
called a realistic and stable level
of values? Wasnt this supposed to
ease the dollar shortage?
Hitch
The answer Is, yes. It was sup
posed to. And it has done so to
certain extent The difficulty lies
In the fact that money isn't tree
from restrictions set up by governments.
The mrif dollar la not re
stricted by the United States gov
ernment. It Is free to go anywhere
in the world. Its value is exactly
what tt will buy In goods or services
or other money. There is no tourist
dollar, or export dollar, or wheat
dollar.
But that tsnt so with other
money. The British pound sterling,
for example, was devalued 305 per
cent on September IS to $2.80 from
t4.03. The Bank of England, which
Issues British money, agreed to buy
and sell pounds with other central
banks to keep the price stable at
$2 JO.
Confidence Lack
Before devaluation all business
done directly between England and
America was at the 14.03 rate. But
a worldwide lack of confidence In
that value forced the British gov
ernment to drop the quotation to
1280. Just before the fall of the
official rate, you could buy bank
notes In Switzerland at (2.80. In
New York pound bank notes were
bought and sold from 13.10 to 13.35.
Today's official rate of 12 JO ap
plies to what is known as trans
ferable sterling for American ae-

count It Is used primarily for
Anglo-American trade. If you want
to buy British products in Britain.
you've got to use that type of fixed
price sterling.
On the other hand. New York
banks will sell you the British
peund bank note Itself for 250. If
you have some to sell, they will buy
them at between 12.40 and 13.45
each.
Pound's Use
What can you do with the British
pound bank note In this country?
Not much. If you are going into
England you are permitted to take
five of them with you. The British
government won't let you bring in
more. You can't ship them to Eng
land and buy anything. The British
won't even take them for their own
automobiles In New York.
Those restrictions on the use of
bank notes is the reason why they
are selling at cut prices under the
official rate. It's a matter of supply
and demand there are a lot of
them around and few places to use
them.
French bank notes, which also
are bound down by some pretty
elaborate restrictions, sell In New
York at a discount under the offi
cial rate.
Present day confusion over gov
ernment control of money Is
nothing new.
Nearly 300 yean ago England
had the same trouble. On January
27, 1665, Samuel Pepys. the man
who kept the famous diary, had a
chat with the master of the royal
mint
The diary relates that the mint
master was dead-set against laws
prohibiting export of British money.
"A folly and an Injury, rather than
good," the mint master explained
why he didn't like the laws blocking
the free use of money, and then
added:
"The merchants will and must
find ways of carrying out money by
stealth, which Is a most easy thing
to do, and is everywhere done.

dinner turkey and all the trim
mings for IS. We can have our cou
sin Abner Feeble and cousin Veroni
ca. And look at the money we u
save."
Well, Mr. Tobin. I'm a game
girl. I agreed. And the first thing
I found out was that your 15 07 cov
ered only half the turkey. The bird
I bought came to 9 25. and I car
ried It home from the butcher la
the palm of one hand.
-Don't forget Cousin Abner drinks
scotch, but Cousin Veronica prefers
bonded bourbon.' Wilbur reminded
me. -And they both like wine at
dinner. They're used to good
things.'
Abner! Fetish
They are indeed. Cousin Abner
used to be a county derk In Okla
homa. But since they struck oil on
his farm he has spent his spare
time lecturing to Rotary clubs on
his favorite topic: -Back to McKln
ley or Bust'
The scotch cost tiK, the bourbon
16 87. and two bottles of French
white wine came to 4.7. Total for
the liquor S17.48.
But that was only tne oegmning.
Mr. Tobin. Cousin Abner waded
through most of the scotch before
dinner. He Is an amateur magician,
and nothing would do but he must
show us a few card tricks. Some
how he lost the ace of spades, and
we will have to buy a new deck.
Blur
When I brought In the turkey,
bought at your department of la
bors specification!. Abner asked:
-What la It ouall?'
He then sat down on a line old
English chair Aunt Effie lefr us,
rocked back and forth laughing
and the chair collapsed In a show'
er of fine old mahogany.
The turkey that was supposed to
last two meals disappeared In IS
minutes. When I brought on the
pumpkin pie. Cousin Veronica
sighed:
"I can't eat that. Its too fstten
lng. Couldn't we have something
simple like brandled cherries and
Ice cream.'
Rich Dessert
We had to send out for the Ice
cream. Cousin Abner insisted on fix
ing the cherries. He poured three
fourths of a bottle of brandy over
them, then said:
"Turn out all the lights. Ill show
you something dramatic."
He lit a match and touched It
to the cherry dish. The brandy flar
ed ud and burned his hand: he up
set the disn ana tne taoieciotn
caueht fire.
Naturally we had to call our doc
tor to fix up Abner s hand. The doc
tor was quite grumpy at having to
make a home call on Thanksgiving
and I know hell send us a bill
for 125.
All this excitement made Cousin
Veronica sick at her stomach. And
where did she pick to get sick? On
our new sofa. When they left Cous
in Abner suddenly found he had no
change tn his pockets and him with
four oil wells. We paid their taxi
fare home.
Whoops!
Well Mr. Tobin. I have Just fig'
ured up what your department of la
bor meal for four actually cost us.
It came to exactly I1S4J3.
Wilbur Is so mad he wants to sue
you for the difference. All I can
say Is don't you ever dare try to
run for president on a platform
promising a Thanksgiving family
dinner for tifn.
If you do. Ill turn these figures
over to the republican party.

The World Today!

The .Russian government news
paper Isveatla makes a front-page
rplaah with the surprising thesis
that socialism (communism) and
capitalism can live side by side In
In peace and It attributes the view
to Lenin and
Stalin.
The Idea of
compatibility be
tween the two
Isms also has
put for
ward recently by
ther publica
tions. Including
the Soviet maga-
sine New Times,
This Is doubly
Interesting liuu
m u e h aa both
Lenin and Stalin
have contradict
ed the Idea of cooperation between
communism and capitalism. For ex
ample Lenin In 1'20 aald:
Aa long aa capitalism and social-
lam exlat we cannot live In peace. In
the end one or the other will tri

The Bolshevist world revolution
for the spread of communism also
la In luelf a direct conlradlrUon of
this theory of peace. Bo la the cold
war.
Problem
Where then does this leave us?
Must we discard the Idea that peace
between communism and capitalism
is utterly Impossible?
I think not but we shall have to
qualify our thesis.
Communism ai.d capitalism ob
viously cannot live In peace within
the confines of any one country.
They are oil and water and cannot
mix.
However, there Is widespread be
lief among students of Uie subject
that a communist state and a capl
tallal state could live aide by side
in peace provided each minded Its
own business and dldnt try to force
Its Ism down the throat of the other.
Russia has been at loggerheads
with much of the rest of the world
ever since the bolslievlst revolution
of 1B17 brought communism to pow
er. The Third International, or com
Intern, waa organised aa a general
staff for world revolution, and this
effort to communlse the whole globe
and bring It under the domination of
Moscow has been proceeding ever
since. Obviously there could be no
peace.
Speculation
There will be much speculation, of
course, as to the full meaning of this
Moscow "peace" talk. What, for ex-
ambple. la the real significance of
the declaration tn Ixvestta, official
organ of the supreme Soviet pre
sidium, that Soviet policy la for
peaceful competition between capi
talist and socialist systems a pol
icy of peaceful cooperation between

Probably a good many observers
will conclude that this move la In

Cold War operations. It also serves
to contrast a peace-minded Soviet

By JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON, Nov. 34 (sT)
Alia us Ward haa been freed.
He's the M-) ear-old American
consul general at Mukden. China.
For a month the Communists held
him and four members of the con
sulate staff in Jail.
No Amerlran was allowed lo see
litem or talk with them, although
food and clothing have been will In
to them.
Here la the background.
Olffsrenl
Unlike ambassadors and ministers
who work on a high diplomatic level,
the Job of an American consul like
Ward la largely looking after trade,
ahlpplng. things like that
And, unlike ambassadors and min
isters who can't be Jailed In a for
eign country because they have what
la called "diplomatic Immunity." a
conral ran be Jailed for an offense.
Almost immediately after they
captured Mukden a year ago No
vember l4g the Chinese Commu
nists put a police guard around the
Amerlran consulate.
Confined
This confined Ward and the mem
bers of his staff to the consulate
grounds, depriving them of freedom
of the city. Last May the American
government decided to dose down
Uie consulate.
Bull, the Communists would not
provide Ward and his rtaff there
were 14 people In all with trans
portation to gel tut of Mukden. The
police guard remained.
Further, the Communists hsd cut
oft the consulate's radio. So. pre
sumably, anything Ward wanted to
send to his American government
first had to be cleared with the
Communis La.
On October 30, 1040. the Chlneae
Communist radio announced that
Ward and four of his consulate staff
had been Jailed October 34 on a
charge of beating up a Chinese em
ploye of the consulate In a wage
dispute.
(The other four Jailed men were
Hated as two Americans Ralph
Rehberg. Rochester, N. Y, a clerk,
and Shlro Talaumi, a mechanic and
two European employes: Frank CI

The Amerlran government never

and his companions "barbaric." Pres.

Although consuls can be Jailed for

Meanwhile, the Communists, ho
have smashed Chiang Kal-Hhrk s

country to recognise them as heads
of the real and legitimate govern-"'
men! of China.
That recognition might have been
delayed quite a bit, anyway, but
Acheaon said It couldn't be con
sidered at all with Ward In Jail.
What Te lh?
What could Uie U. 8. do? Not
much. It seems, short of war. But on
November 31 Acheaon tried this:
He appealed to 30 nations, in
cluding Huasla. to intervene with the
Chlneae communists on behalf of
Ward. Bo far It Is not known that
any of the 30 has done so. Hut
The nest dsy, November 22. the
Chlneae Communists reported Uirir

ished Ita Investigation and would
give a verdict on Ward and his four
companions.

Don't Use a Drug Until
It Has Been Well Tested
By EDWIN P. JORDAN. M. D.
Fat people naturally hope for
some drug or other simple and quirk
way of melting off the pounds and
restoring a slender figure. A few
years ago It seemed aa though the
answer lo this desire had finally
been discovered. A chemical com.
pound called dlnllrophenol, which
waa known In Industry chiefly for
Its use In the manufacture of ex.
plosives, seemed to be the wonder
drug.
It almost literally melted off the
fat There was much enthusiasm for
this drug In many places. For a
short time dlnltrophenol waa used
a good deal and successfully
to reduce weight. However, soon aft
er dlnltrophenol began to be used.
It waa discovered that the drug had
serious dangers. Some people who
took It developed skin rashes. Liver
damage waa reported.
Resulted In Death
Several deaths were reported fol
lowing the administration of dlnl
trophenol and In two of there the
dosage had not been unusually large
at all. In several of the six persons
who died death came rapidly a
day after the symptoms first began
to show. Among some who took the
drug and -eeiucd lo have good re
sults without Immediate signs of
poisoning, cataracts formed In the
eyes. Tills turned out to be another
serious complication of dlnllrophe
nol. The story of dlnltrophenol Is Im
portant because It shows that until
a new treatment has been studied
carefully no one knows whether the
dangers In using It are hot greater
than the possible good. All r'M.
drugr. therefore, need to be hna4
with care and loo much should not
be expected of them until the Im
portant actions, bad aa well aa good,
have been worked out by study in
the laboratory, on experimental ani
mals and finally by careful obser
vation of their effects on human
beings.
