BERLIN, Oct. 12—President Strese
mann submitted to the Reichstag a
liberally improvised statement on the
internal and foreign situation. He
plainly exhibited signs of physical
exhaustion and nervousness born of
apprehension regarding what the im
mediate future holds in store for his
resurrected coalition government.
His speech was a cursory review of
events since the abandonment of pas
sive resistance. The Reichstag ad
journed until Monday when all parties
will announce their individual atti
tude toward the government’s propos
ed semi-dictatorial measures. The
termination of the past week's crisis
leaves the parliamentary situation in
a complete state of uncertainty. When
Stresemann arose to make his speech
he was greeted by the Communists
with shouts of “Stinnes representa
tive,” and “puppet.” He assured the
Communists that Stinnes had nothing
to do with the formation of the gov
ernment. -*• v .*
SMILE ST ROUGH
HID OF WORLD
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12.—Buiiulng
new American careers out of the
wreckage of prosperity wiped out in
the Russian revolution is a task op
timistically undertaken by subjects of
the late czar who have found them
selves stranded in Los Angeles, ac
cording to Elizabeth Beglaroff, Rus
sian secretary of the International In
stitute of the Young Women’s Chris
tian Association.
There is tragedy and pathos in the
frequency with which well educated,
refined and talented Russians of noble
birth have found all occupations clos
ed to them but those of a most menial
sort. Some are more fortunate. For
instance there is a former military of
ficer who has found success in a col
lege teaching mathematics. Another,
a former general in Kolchak’s army,
conducts a school for Russian-Ameri
can children, but a third former offi
cer of high rank, an aristocrat of the
old regime, is unable to find even me
nial work. His wife packs cosmetics
in a local factory.
A former count, after serving as a
chauffeur for a wealthy family, lately
acquired enough capital to buy a taxi
cab of his own. Another nobleman
works as lineman for a power com
pany, while a military leader under
the Romanoffs works as a factory
hand.
Despite the hardships imposed it is
surprising how cheerful and light
hearted these refugees are.
