Agent on Premises Victor C. Carlson Organization 636 Church Street PHONE GREENLEAF 501 NOW READY FOR OCCUPANCY -- -- | At the Woman's Club i Russia Up to in 19272" That is the test of a government," There was a large attendance at the open meeting of the Winnetka Wo- man's club, Tuesday, November 2. In the absence of the: president, Mrs. Arthur Cushman, the second vice pres- ident, Mrs. Taliaferro Milton, presided. The minutes were read, approved, and several notices were given. Mrs. Mil ton announced that the club had suffered quite a loss on Hallowe'en, when two new iron parking signs were carried away from the club grounds. These signs were purchased only re- cently by the club and at considerable expense. Any information in regard to them would be eagerly received. Mrs. E. E. Brown, chairman of the committee on civics and philanthropy, introduced Prof. Paul H. Douglas of the School of Commerce and Adminis- tration at the University of Chicago. The subject of his talk was "What Is Russia has "come back" as far as production is concerned, said Professor Douglas. From the depths of the year 21-22, when ridden by various mili- tary leaders, with-some towns chang- ing hands twenty-four times, Russia has pulled herself out, until this year she slightly surpassed the pre-war standard of production. Professor Douglas spoke of piece rates in fac- tories and stressed saving as two vital factors in- Russia's recovery. i "Is the life of the people improved? They Knew What They Wanted Those who have leased apartments in Sixteen Hun- dred Hinman Avenue found what they wanted in this beautiful building, with its large, light rooms facing '""One-Quarter Acre of Garden."

There is no doubt as to the improved conditions of the industrial worker. The rate of increase varies from thirteen percent to seventy-five percent in the different phases of life. To a definite wage in added great care of the worker, as is evidenced in the remark able system of social insurance for workers and 'their families, and also in the granting of two to four week vaca tions on full pay and the use of the estates of the aristocracy for vacation homes and recreation centers. The clerical and intellectual have lost, rather than gained, through the revolution, said Professor Douglas. The peasant class, taking all thines into consideration, has probably gained from five percent to ten percent. But many country workers, attracted by city standards of living, are pouring into the cities, and this is creating a large class of the unemnloyed, now estimated at some 2,000,000. Capitalism is not back of this re covery in industry, as manv have thought, declared Professor Douglas. It is on the decrease. Ninety-five percent of the workers are in state industries. Only thirty percent of sales are handled by private retailers. This is somewhat explained by the growth and power of the consumer's co-opera- tive organizations, f crease is classes which can far undersell any private merchant. "Russia is terribly afraid of war" declared Professor Douglas, turning to the consideration of the political life of Russia. Russia fears Great Britain particularly. "In fear of capi- talistic wars lies the direct cause of Russia's acts of terrorism," declared Professor Douglas. The underlying issue for us, as a nation, is whether capitalism and communism can exist side by side, according to Professor Douclas. He suogests that thev be allowed to com- pete in a fair field, with no recourse tn force: that the test be economic, namely, which theory nroduces the hest results. "Tf," concluded Professor Douglas, "we sav that any nation un- like ours shall be put down, then the world will be a bloody place for the next decades." Questions elicited an interesting dis- cussion of the policy of the state de- nartment, in regard to propaganda, nrovertv reimbursement, and our loan tn Russia. The following committee served as hostesses to the club members and. their guests at tea: Mrs. Howard C. Rallencer. Mrs, Leonard T. Bertoli, Mrs, Edgar Crillv. Mrs. William Gib- con. Mrs. Ralnh Monroe Snyder, and Mrs. Ceoroe F. Suker. Football Supner Dance Is Innovation of Club Kenilworth club activities are well under wav for the fall season.
