Degeneration Which Will Bring a
Reversion to the Middle Ages |
Allbis for failure, justified to some }
extent at the beginning of the experi-/
ment, are no longer valid. A con-
Sciousness is dawning that blockades
by wars and revolutions cannot be
blamed for all the this which the}
present low standard of living entails.
Furthermore, the steady shrinkage in|
productivity, the decre sasing harvests,t
jane the increasing unemployment are|
giving rise to serious doubts as to,
whether Russia as a Communist state;
can survive in a world of ordinary |
mortals. Credit must be given to the |
experiment for certain liberties it has{
brought to the great mass of the Rus-!
Slan peasants, but as an offset to that}
Must be placed the consistent degen- |
ian economic life. In)
the long run; the practice of the Com-!
miunist jeaders must change or that |
reversion to the Middle Ages; cities

Trans-Atlantic Air Service Probable
Says Vice-Marshal Brancker

Regular trans-Atlantic airship sery-
ice between England and Auwierica is
expected within a few years by Sir
Sefton Brancker, air vice-marshal. He
estimates two and a lalf days as the
regular scheduled time of the tip
Airships will be
the pioneers in establishing this serv-
ice, but eventually airplanes may be-
come practicable for such flight, he
said.

Sir Sefton also thinks bi-weekly alr-
ship service between England and In-
dia and Australia, eleven days for the
trip, and weekly servic@ to Capetown
in five and a half days, will be estab-
lished before many years. ~

“Twg, and a half to three years will
pass before the first two big ships are
flying,” he said, “and after that it may
be another two years before-the air-
ship service to India in regular,

teady bi-weekly basis can be estab-
| lished,” 7

The British air ministry is now
working to produce aircraft that can
be operated more cheaply. Experi-
ments are now being made with—a
