This development, has resulted from the recent order of the Soviet Government that a new search of church institutions be made for hidden treasures which might have escaped notice previously.

For an American possessing even the most cursory knowledge of transatlantic people it is at once apparent how bewildering and even balding must be the circumstance and significance of our present national election. This confusion arises primarily, I believe, from the tact that on all the issues which divide Europeans, and, supply the|== bases for political controversy and party groupings abroad, the parties machine to the man.

It follows quite naturally that our presidential campaigns most Irequently resolve themselves into one of two sorts of contests. They are either a clash of personalities pure and simple, or are dominated by the attacks, upon the party in power for inefficiency or dishonesty.

Of course, it alag follows that WL nut infrequently vote against a strong to bas oltended rather than for his oppon ent, who may be by contrast insignißcant

Rival Ideals...

It would be ho cxaggeration to say that not only has Hoover one of the greatest executive minds of our own time on the economic and industrial side, but also that he is even more certainly the greatest man of bis sort yet to hold high office. He is an exceedingly repre- sentative example of a new idea in the world. But by contrast it would be no more an exaggeration to say that since Abraham Lincoln, no man has quite demonstrated the instinctive understanding of the American masses which Smith has disclosed.

If Smith is elected-and I believe he has at least a better chance than would appear from mere profes- sional judgment-it seems to me he will owe his victory very largely to the double sense of the masses, that he understands them, and that he can express them, together with In concomitant and coherent reaction against the idea of purely mechanical and impersonal eff
