literate Russian Peasants Oi
Not Easy to Deceive
tic
on
Kazan, July 28.?The Russian peas
it, upon intimate contact, has been ^
>unti to be not so illiterate or so sj
upid as it has been the habit to
present him. While he may not al- p
ays be able to read, he possesses a sy
utural shrewdness and intelligence r(i
hich stand him in good stead. A
radical common sense is often a
re
ood substitute for book learning. ^
American Relief Administration j
orkers have hail much to do with j
ie Russian peasants in their various
en
ctivities in these lands, and have ^
time to regard him wi.h respecti 0
"How is it," one of the Russian ^
iterpreters was asked, "that al- ^
hough these peasants cannot read ^
nd write they seem to be able to ^
aake accurate computations, and to
naster the intricacies of the Rus- ^
ian currency? They seem to under- .,
tand perfectly even the new bank w
lotes in which those marked 100
uhles equal those put out lad year t
vhich were worth 1,000,000. ^
"They appreciate the value of stu)idity,"
was the answer. 'They like j
o appear simple, more simple than ^
hey are. It is partly a pose with
hem, but is has its practical side, too. j
I'liey appear guileless and manage to ,
Irive a good bargain because their
rery guilelessness allays the sus- .
licion of the person with whom they
ire dealing.
"1 hand them a 1,000,000 ruble Q
lote. 'What is this,' they ask. 1 ^
ell them that is is a million. They j
leeept it. But try handing them a
100,000 ruble note and say that it is
r million. They will shake their
leads. You may point out that it j
has many ciphers following the ligme.
They will not accept it. 'But,' t
you persist, 'you cannot read, why
ilo you think I am lying to you.' 'But j
I have never seen that sort of a million
before,' they answer and they ^
will not take it. j"You
take a paper to a peasant to <,
he signed. He looks at it and asks ^
what it is all about. You read it to t
him. He nods but protests that he ^
zannot write. "Let someone else ^
write my name on it,' he says and
later he may repudiate the agree- ^
ment, saying that he never signed it
ind did not even know what it con
ained. j,
"I believe that many of them who
an both read and write are careful
;o conceal that knowledge, believing
hat it wil be to their advantage to
lo so. They are not so stupid as they c
ippear." c

Ixmdon, July 28.?The London {j
Jounty Council has made some con essions
to the demand of West End v
Business firms that they be allowed ^
o erect loftier and more commodious t,
stores, but these concessions fall far u
short of permitting the construction c,

Ler American skyscrapers. c
"The concession as to height asked rj
[or was 120 feet maximum on favirahle
sites, explained the secretary t
if the Retail Distributors Association
which had been the prime movers
in the matter. 'We have been authorized
to put up buildings that are
so feet high to the ceilings of the
topmost floor, and on favorable sites
the municipality may permit buildings
to be erected that are 100 or

rigin of the Hawaiian Race I
Honolulu, T. H., July 28.?Informs
in which may throw valuable light
the mystery which surrounds the
igin of the Hawaiian race was obined
in explorations on the Na Pali
le of the Island of Kauai by a party
scientists under the direction of
r. II. E. Gregory, of the Bishop*muum,
it was revealed when the party
turned here.
The finest type of terracing for agL'ulture
in the Hawaiian islands was
?und in the valley of Kauai and the
ligation system displayed great enneering
skill on the part of the
irly Hawaiians who lived there, Dr.
regory said. A prow of an ancient
ltrigger canoe was found in one of
le caves high up on a cliff. The
row contained three skulls which, on
rst examination, appeared to belong
> some race other than the Hawaiian,
robably to a race originating more
) the south. The skulls may hold
le secret of the origin of the Ilaaiians,
Dr. Gregory said.
According to ancient Hawaiian legnds,
the people of the Naulolo and
[alalau valleys?the scene of the remit
expolations?were the only ones
1 the islands who were not mastered
y Kamehamcha the Great when he
nited the archipelago into a kingom.
The only entrances to the isoited
valleys are up ladders or on
arrow trails and it was easy for the
i habitants to repel attempted inasions.
Further investigation of the geolgy
og Kauai is being made by Proessor
N. E. A. Hinds, instructor at
larvard University, who is the latest
eientist admitted to the Bishop Mueum
Fellowshij). He is the third
erson to receive the award this year,
t is an honorary order created by
'ale university in cooperation with
he Museum and is intended for
cholars whose problems involve first
land study of the Pacific.
Dr. Fowler of the Philadelphia
Uademy of Science, an authority on
ish in the Pacific, and Professor Carl
Skottsberg, of IJpesia, Sweden, an
xpert on Pacilica ocean plants are
he other two scientists who have
ieen admitted to the fellowship this
ear.
Dr. Fowler will arrive here soon
or a year's study of fish in Hawaiian
waters. He also will make trips to
'almyra, Midway and the Fanning
slands.
Subways Under Sidewalks
Chicago, July 27.? (By the Assorted
* Press).?Subways under Chiago
sidewalks instead of under the
ity streets is the plan proposed by
). Chase Denison, Chicago -ivil enjiiuer,
who contends that such an
mprovement could safely be bull*, at
e-is than half the depth of the oriiuuy
type of underground railway
nd at a tenth of the cost.
Only a small portion of such a sub/ay
system as Chicago nee'.ts can be
iuilt at the depth that would be necssary
if excavation should be made
inder the street proper, owing to the
xpense, according to Mr. Derison,
vho has submitted to U. S. Schwartz,
hairman of the Chicago Council
Transportation Committee, a plan for
i subway svstem ten or twelve feet
leep under the sidewalks instead of
!5 to .r>0 feet deep ui.der the streets,
t is understood that application has
>een made to the United States pat>nt
office for protection of the plan,
which Mr. Denisoti believes appli able
to other cities.
"The city of Chicago owns the
itreets of the city including the sidewalks
up to the building lines," said
Mr. Denison. "The city has the
ight to lease the surface lines, the
space under the sidewalks for the
ar lines. This space is now used, if
it all, chiefly by business houses for
oal holes.
"Such a deep subway as funds
ould be provided for would be in
idequate for present needs, whereas
i subway system built ten or twelve
eet deep could provide for the fu11l'p
f r? tnn /** uruii *r_#i\r*1 i?ooro ? K
(opulation of the city will be greatl
ncreased. At present we are twen
y five years behind the times in ou
(revision for traffic; most proposal
ire designed only to catch up wit
he growth that has already take
(lace and are not far-sighted. /
leep subway would be but a tempo
ary makeshift.
"The sidewalk subway could b
(uilt at one-tenth the expense of
leep subway, in one tenth the time
ind could extend throughout th
ity, as tentimes as extensive a sy>
em could be built for the sum
noney. In addition to its economy
he plan offers several advantages.
"In the first place, it would dis
(ense with long stairs, inclines 01
levators which many people, espe
ially during the rush hours, wouii
lot and could not take.
"A deep subway is also dark; hare
o ventilate, and the noise is like thi
nside of a drum. >It is also^danger>us,
und in case of accident a trap
or humanity.
"Under the new plan prints in the
tidewafks would supply most of the
ight required in daytime; ventilation
ould he arranged along the build-,
ngs. It would work automatically,!
he cars in motion forcing the air out!
n front of them and drawing in
'resh air behind them by suction. !
|
"The cars would take on and let'
>ff people at every street intersec-1
ion in the 'loop district,' and would i
nake three to five times the speed I
tin/to An t Via onrfnoo run AitrKt t a
........ w,*"v
*n times more cars and carry as
lany more passengers.
"The plan provides for such a routiK
of cars that no tracks would cross
K-h other on Krade or above or be- i
w Krade, thus eliminatinK a cause 1
accidents."

West Africa Experimenting
In Cotton Production
Cairo, Egypt, July 2H.?Steady
progress is being made in the establishment
of the Niger River Valley
cotton experiment station, located in
West Africa. The work is being done
under the auspices of the French colonial
authorities of Occidental Africa,
who have selected Dr. Herbert
H. Forbes, former dean of the College
of Agriculture of Arizona, to
report on the proposed irrigation project.
The French Consortium Committee
has allotted the money for the station
and definite installations will be begun
as soon as the credits are in
hand.
Cotton seed and a selection of cot-1
ton plants have been sent to the sta- |
lion from the United States and
Egypt. Cultivated lands in the vicinity
of Kulikoro and El- Ouahadji,
on the Niger and Timbuktu and bordering
on French Senegal, are to be
used for the experimental work. The
first cultures will be given returns f
duting the winter of 1922-23. These
will be used to secure a sufficient
stock of pure cotton seed for the
1923-24 season.
The irrigation work contemplates
ultimately an irrigation dam similar
to the Assouan dam on the Nile.
Temporary pumping stations to care
for the 1923-24 crop already have
been installed. Every means of preventing
cotton plant diseases and
worm invasions will be adopted.
