Houston Gives “Advertising Low- ers Cost of Distribution” as Keynote. HILL’S ADDRESS IS READ BY ANOTHER | Declares Value of Publicity Has Been Fully Tested and Merit Proved; Woman Gives Views From House- wife’s Standpoint. _, “Advertising Lowers the Cost of Distri- bution” was proclaimed as the keynote of the thirteenth annual convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, in the address of Herbert 3. Houston, president of the organization, at the opening business session today in the Jefferson Theater. More than 3500, including delegates and their wives and daughters, the latter to the number of 560, had registered in Hotei Jefferson at the hour of opening. Houston, who is vice president of Dou- bleday, Page & Co., book and magazine publishers, of Garden City, Long Island, had as his theme ‘The Spirit of the Convention,” and he told of the forma- tion, at the beginning of the war, of the National Advertising Advisory Board. The plans of service made for this board will be described to the conven- tion in later speeches, he said, Utmost Efficiency Needed. “If we are to s:i:e and at the same time vontinue to wow in a democratie and competitive world,’ HMousten said, “we must serve with te utmost +f: - ciency.

We believe that the service it renders to the world cannot be ren- dered by anything else so well or so cheaply. And this convention is to bear ' witness to our belief. “The challenge as to the place and cost of advertising we shal! here mect with courage and with confidence.

SENATORS DECLARE EOR FLAT to Thirteenth tion Agsinst Increasing Second Class Postal Rates. WASHINGTON, June 4—After sev- eral hours’ discussion of how newspa- pers, Magazines and other publications Shall be taxed for war purposes, the Senate Finance Committee today adopt- ed a resolution against increasing sec- ond-class postage rates and in favor of levying a direct flat 2 per cent tax upon advertising receipts. The Aecision was tentative, but is ex- rected to stand. Only one member of the committee voted against the resolution. Chaitriian Simmons announced that the vote was inerely to gain a concrete expression*®of committee sentiment and to that ex tent* was tentative and is -dven to, fur- ther reconsideration. Other Senators, however, stated that with such an over- whelming vote it was believed that the 2 per cent advertising tax would be finally adopted. Revenue of 315,000,009 is estimated In voting on the adyertising tax ques- tion the committee considered but post- poned a decision upon exempting news- papers and other publications whose «an- nual advertising receipts are less than $2000. NEW NAMES ARE ANNOUNCED FOR SEIZED GERMAN SHIPS Most of Them Are of Coast Towns or Cities Which Have Connection With the Navy. WASHINGTON, June 4.—Secretary Daniels announced today that the names of the seized German ships assigned to the navy have been changed as follows: Geier to Schurz, Breslau to Bridgeport, Kiel to Camden, Liebenfels to Houston, Saxonia to Savannah, Vogensen to Quin- cy, Nic&aria to Pensacola, Odenwald to Newport News, Hohenfelde to Long Beach, Frieda Leonhardt to Astoria, An- dromeda to Bath, Rddolf Blumberg to Beaufort, President to Kittery, Lack- sun to Gulfport. Most of the new nanies of the vessels are of coast towns and cities which have some connection. with the navy. The Geier, the gunboat interned at Hon- olulu, is renamed for Carl Schurz, the famous German-American soldier. The Liebenfels, now the Houston. was sunk in Charleston Harbor when the United States broke off relations with Germay. GERMAN CROPS NOW SHOW FAIRLY SATISFACTORY CONDITION Hot May, With Half Normal Hain- fall, Brought on the Grain, De- | spite Belated see: COPENHAGEN, June 4.—The Gerrnan crops now show a fairly satisfactory condition, according to German reports, particularly in Southern and Western Germany, aithough plenty of rain cuon- tinues to be the earnest desire of the farmers. The hot, dry weather during May—the dryest May in 16 years, with a rainfall barely half of the normze) - brought in the grain crop so rapidly that the farmers in Southern and West- ern Germany are reckoning upun the harvest at the usual date, notwithstand- ing the greatly belated spring. Another dry period is predicted. The Government has made arran:je- ments to rush the early potatoes tu mar- ket and has ordered a census tw dcter- mine the acreage and probable date of ripening of each individual patch. eee ee UNSETTLED WEATHER, SHOWERS, THUNDERSTORMS, FRESH WINDS ere ee ee eee THE TEMPBRATURES, & a m 2 p.

Nol- ker’in his suit against Pearl Elizabeth Hyman Nolker, and handed down a written decision, in which he said: “There was sufficient false swearing on both sides in this case to prevent anv affimative relief to either party.’’ The case was tried in the weelh be- ginning March 19 and was conci:ided March 27, when the Judge took it un:er advisement. Depositions were taken here and in New York and large aums of money were expended by Nolketr in co)- lecting testimony as to his wife's cur- duct when she was studying in Paris fur the operatic stage and when she lived in New York and in the St. Regis Apart- ments in St. Louis. Men of so many different nationa.i. ties were named that the case took on an internationa!l aspect. Mrs. Nolker did not file a cross-bill and did not ask -a divorce. In her answer she denicd her hurhand’s allegations and alleged that he had neglected her and spent mueh of his time in company with other women at clubs in St. Louis and resorts in St. Louis County. Neither Nolker nor his wife was in court when the decision was handed down today. FP. H. Cullen, Mrs. Nolk- er’s attorney, was present. A. = Frumberg, counse! for Nolker, was absent, but was represented by his brother, Mitchell D. Frumberg. Judge's Statement. Judge Cave allowed $5000 to Mrs. Nolker for her expense money and attorneys’ fees in connection with the suit. In his decision, Judge Cave said: ‘This case already has been the occa- sion of too many words and our dispo- sition of it will be confined to few. The husband as plaintiff seeks the divorce. ‘Tine wife seeks nothing, except an allow- ance for her expense and attorneys’ iges in defending the case. “Without taking time to comment on the eviderce as to the conduct of the wife or to refer in detail to evidence as to any acts or alleged acts of the lus- band—for whatever the wife’s conduct i'may have been, the husband’s conduct in this case determines his right to a decree of divorce—suffice it to say that the plaintiff himself has not so dis- charged his duties as a husband as to enabled the Court to grant him the de- sired release. “The law has wisely provided that a party invoking the power of the Court must come with clean hands, and imposes on the, plaintiff the burden of satisfying the Court that he thas himself lived up to the obligations of a husband—the bur- den of showing that he had himself kept the bond, before he can sever it for the wife’s failure to do so. “Of Same Opinion Still.” “This the plaintiff has, in our opinion, failed to do. Such was our opinion at the close of the testimony, and we were ready to dispose of this case at that time, but, on request of counsel tor tie parties, we have waited and examincd their briefs, Only to be of the same o,in- fon still. “We might add that there was, it our inion sufficient false swearing on both @des in this case to prevent any affirmative relief to either.’ In announcing the allowance to Mra. Nolker for expenses and fees, the Court said: “The law has provided, wisely, or unwisely, that the husband must fur- nish the wife with the financial sinews of war in any contest between the two ”’ Eech Acveused the Other. Nolker alleged that Mrs. Nolker had spent thousands of dollars of his money having a gay time in Paris and other places in Europe while he was left to his own devices in St. Louis. In the evenings some of the time he would spend alone reading in his apartments rat the St. Regis, on Lindell boulevard. At other times he would go out with friends to various cafes and gardens in St. Louis and vicinity. He charged «hat the defendant received attention from many men on her travels. Mrs. Nolker filed an answer denying that her husband had grounds for 4i- vorce or that he was the innocent par- ty. She did not ask for a divorce, burt asked that the plaintiff's petition be dis- missed and that she have judgment against him for $23,000, of which $15,090 was to be for her attorney and $10,000 to ‘her other expenses Incidental to de- sadtred the case. Mre. Nolker explained that her prin- ‘ipal reason for going abroad was ty continue her vocal studies, in which, sne said, she was encouraged by her hua- band. Severa! of the men about whose attentions Nolker complained were ar- Uats and she saw them professionally, she aaid. The MNolxers were married tn QU RONT —INVENTS.

WASHINGTON, June 4.—Plans of the War Department to draft from 900,000 to 1,500,000 men of the -10,000,000 who it is estimated will register tomorrow for the new army were disclosed today by Pro- vost Marshal-General Crowder to the Senate Military Affairs Committee. Ex- emptions, he said, probably would result in reducing the number to 62,000 men for immediate service. While the War Department had vrizg- inally planned to first select 500,000 men, Gen. Crowder told the committee the plans had been revised, and it now wus proposed to require 625,000. To obtain this number, he said, it probably vould be necessary to draft at least ‘0,'7™, and possibly 1,500,000, because of ex- pected exemptions. Gen. Crowder told the committee th2 additional 125,000 would be needed to fill up vacancies in the army of 500,000. and to -keep training camps in continous operation. When the criginal plans fur service from half a million men wete made, he said, the department had ?r:.‘t planned to send American forces abroad so soon. 43 Casualties from ‘Gerbion | service, aick- ness, etc., in addition to the needs for training camp duty, he believed, :aaiv necessary a reserve of 125,000 mien. Gen. Crowder told the commitice ho favcred immediate drafting of men re;- istering rather than postponemeiit of the draft for several weeks after rewis- tration. He regards It as desirable that every drafted man know he is called and have a few weeks to make personul ur. rangements before joining the cvlors Details of m@king exemptions also were explained to the committee by tie provost Marshal-General. He aaid che, Government. did. not. contemplate — class exemptions but that all would “be personal. Farmers, factory operatives and other spécial classes would noc be exempted as such, nor territorially, tut all exemptions would te made individ- ually. The men drafted prot@bly will be in training camps by Sept. 1, Gen. Crowder said, and added that he favored berin ning selections within two weeks aftcr registration, so that exemption work may be expedited and notifications wn the final selections made by made as soon thereafter as possible. Final warning against evasion of the draft registration tomorrow or attempts to induce others to evade it was issued toGay by Attorney-General Gregory. He said he expected a few men in each com- mutity to refuse to register, but expect- ed no resort to force to prevent execu- tion of the law. “It is the duty of this department to prosecute evaders, and it is proposed to do so,”’ said the Attorney-General. Italians in the country were urged to register by the Prince Udine, head of Italy's war mission, in an address to a delegation of countrymen who called on him at the embassy. Rule as to Americans Abroad. It was announced today that the re- quirement of the new law that the reg: istration cards of mon absent from thelr; home precincts reach the precinct rey- istrar by June 5 would not be enforced against Americans now abroad In- structions sent to American Conatls. accompanying registration cards, how- ever, ask those who fill out the Dianks to get them back to the registrare as quickly as possible. The regulations provide that Ameri- cans’ returning to the United States must register within five days after their arrival at an American port. Rex«- istration with the Consulates abroad, however, is purely voluntary, and cun- not be enforced while the citizen re- maing out of the country. Probably by midnight Tuesday it wiil be possible to state with approximate accuracy the number of men who hsve presented themselves during the 14 hours of registration. A week later the lists of the.registrars wil! have reached Washirgton and further analysis will be possible. It was explained at the provost Mar- sha!l-Génergl's office that men of Polish nativity, ject to the registration act, who were born in sections of Poland now held by Germany or Austria, shocil register on June 5 as natives of Poland claimed by Germany or by Austria, as the case may be, and not as Germats or Austrians.

LOUIS SIXTH IN POPULATION IN NEW CENSUS ESTIMATE Detroit Given Fourth Place and Boston Fifth in Figures for Army Registration. Estimates of population made by tne Census Bureau at Washington, #8 4 registration guide for the War Depart- ment, place Detroit in fourth place among the cities of the United states, Boston in fifth place and St, Louis in sixth. According to these estimates, Detroit now has a population of & 0,00), Boston 772.997 and St. Louls 768,690. The booklet issued by the Census fu- feau giving the estimated populatioa vf all cities over 30.000 and counties in the United States, contains nothing to show how the bureau arrived at these conctlu- sions. Under the bureau's ,estimate Detroit should have 107,000 men between the axes of 21 and 3, inclusive; Boston 78,836 ard St. Louls 4.98. There is nothing in the figures to explain why St. Louis, with a smaller estimated population than Boston. should have 6% more men le. tween the ages of 21 and W. Detroit Ninth ta 1907. While Detroit ranked as the ninth city in population in the official census of 1910, it hag now jumped to fvurth pditce, tr the latest Censue Bureau estimates, passing Pittsburg, Baltimore, Cleveland, Boston and St. Louls. Cleveland, according to the estimate, has a population of ©6877. having dropped from sixth to seventh olace Raltimore has dropped from sevent’ to cases was made, ad i eighth place, aod Pittsbure from eighth Buffalo surrenders tenth place with an estimated popu- to ninth. to Los Angeles, lation of 533,635. According to the census of Wit, the population of the first 10 cities was as follows: New York, 4,766,883; Chicago, 2,185,282: Philadelphia, 1,549,008; St. Louis, 687.029: Boston, 670,58; Cleveland, 60,1465; Raltimore, 558,485; Pittsburg, 683,905, De- troit, 466,766, and Buffalo, 423,715. The first cities, according to the new estimate of the Census Bureau, are: New York, 5,896.04; Chicago, 2,647,201; Philadeiphia, including county, 1,775,514; Detroit, $50,000; Boston, 772,997; St Louls, 768.630: Cleveland, 60,837; Baltimore, °5,- 000: Pitteburg. 586.196, and Los Angeles, 533.495. Buffalo, which held tenth place in 1910. with a population of 423,715, is credited with a population of 475,73! 106,040 in St. Louis County. St. Louis County ts listed as having a population of 106,049, of which 690 are of military draft age. Thus the combined population of St. Louts and St. Louls County is given as 874.909. The total of men of military age in the city and county !s 93,674. The Ceneus Bureau's estimate of De- trolt's population is more than 2,000 in excess of the fondest claims of the De- troit city directory estimate,. 820.778, an- nounced last September. City directory estimates usually are considerably larg- e- than the figure obtained in an actua! census-taking by the Department of 1 Commerce. At the time the Detroit directory eati- mate was announced, the Post-Diapatch, on Sept. & last, printed statistics show- ing that St. Louis had 172,284 registered votera, compared with 128,700 in Detroit; that there were 8,858 school children en- rolied in the St. Louls schools on Sept. 18 laet, compared with an enrollment of 82,000 in Detroit.

Canadian troops were in the thick of it. They gained the ruins of the electrical works shortly before 2 o'clock Sunday morning, after a spien- -@i4 dash in the moonlight and it was not until nearly 8 o'clock Sunday night ‘that they were finally driven back to their original positions under the pressure of German counter-attacks in which an overpowering weight of men (was employed. The works were held 18 hours against the concentrated German “artillery fire. One @ifficulty with which the Canadi- ans were confronted was the fact that 'in preparing the attack on the works »~thetr artillery had reduced the buildings *6 effectively and had so obliterated the trenches dug about them that practi- ally all shelter was eliminated. While the objectives eventually Were lost, the ‘enterprise was not without compensa- tions, for 112 prisoners were taken and valuable identifications were obtained.

He was particularly convinced of this, he said, as he was leaving it an absolutely free hand to decide what Russian railways need. The commission wil! be furnished with interpreters and other assistants by the Foreign Office, which Nekrasoff says is taking a great interest in the Amer- ican body’s work. s “In pursuance of our policy in leav- ing the commission a free hand,"’ con- tinued Nekrasoff, ‘“‘we have no detaile4 program for it. The commission will spend some days at Viadivostok tn order to arrange for the construction of a workshop for putting together American locomotives, which heretofore have been assembled only at Harbin. “On the way Chairman Stevens wil! in- spect the Siberian Railroad and decide on a report to us as to what defects there are in the construction and man- agement and how these may be rem- edied, “There 48 an enormous future, during; and after the» war, for Ameri- can producers in the construction of railroads and the supply of materials alike.

He Suggests His Country Ask for Conference as Means of Escape From Anarchy. PETROGRAD, Jufie 4.—In a long d-c- laration published in the Dyen, Baron Rosen, former Russian Ambassador to the United States and former member of the council of the empire, suggests as a means of exit for Russi2 from her present chaotic condition a diplomatic conference with ‘thé entente allies ts ue- termine a possible basis for peace with the central Powers. The original a‘'ms of the war—the complete ruin of the enemy—have become hopeless, he ‘ie- clares, and the war promises to develop into a slow process of more or less sen- eral exhaustion of both sides. ‘Russia is on the edge of a precipice, says Baron Rosen in his declaration. “Safety demands that she find an exit before the growing anarchy wrecks the country. She must look the truth in the eye. The watchword of ‘War to the end’ must be considered in the light of conditions. “Those conditions are becoming Worse with increasing disorganization. The enemy as well as the allies are informed of that fact. We are running the risk of being abandoned by the allies or left to the necessity of making a shameful peace if we defer following the only course comformable with dignity ard honor. We must abandon the use cf words which mean nothing clear and definite, and begin a diplomatic confer- ence with the allies and the Upited States, which has joined the coalition, and find out what conditions of peace will satisfy them and at the same time be in accordance with the spirit of the declaration of temporary government and the principles proclaimed by Presi- dent Wilscn.”’ Baron Rosen accnowledges that Russia is late with such a diplomatic sugges: tion, which, in‘his opinion, should have followed President Wilson’s appeal (9 the belligerent countries. At. that tire, however, the governing classes of ail the countries were so intent upon the idea of the complete ruin of the eneniy, he comments, that no one Governnent could assert its readiness to solve tne problem of the war by conferences. “Thus,” he adds, “af unfortunate sit- uation was created, an exit from which was possible only by the injection of 1 new and powerful Tfactor—the, Russian revolution. In this consists its great world importance. Russia was the first to have the courage to say aloud t!e definite word which has freed ev4ry- body from the bloody hypnosis uncer which the nations labored for nearly three vears.”’ Raron Rosen Admirer of U. 8S. and of Democracy: Strongly Anti-German. Baron Roman Romanovitch Rosen, 67 vears old, is one of the most noted of Russians, and is particularly known for his admiration of the United States and of democratic Governments. His [amily is of Saxon descent, but has been known in Russia for 300 years. Few Russians know the United States as well as Baron Rosen, who 3% years ago was appointed Consul-General in New York. Later he was Charge d’Af- faires in Washington, during Presideat Cleveland’s first administration. From 1893 to the beginning of the war with Japan Baron Rosen was Rus- sian Ambassador to Tokio, and after his appointment as Russian Ambassader to the United States he was selected as one of the Russian peace commissioncrs at the Portsmouth conference. In March, 1914, Baron Rosen delivered a formidable warning to the Council of Empire, of which he was a member, *hat war With Germany was inevitable. He denounced the ‘‘hopeless reaction’’ cf the Rasputin party and plainly pointed to the dangers that might threaten’ the Romanoff dynasty. After the war had been in progress for a year he urged the Council of I'm- pire to abrogate all legislation restrict- ing the rights of the Jews and the law concerning Finland. In the presence of the Grand Dukes and other intimate friends of the Czar, Baron Rosen declared that “the great European conflict was not a conflict of interests but a conflict of ideas and principles; that Russia stood on the side of right and liberty fighting against ‘he trampling down of all rights by German militarism.” He added: “For the tri- umph of the ideas for which we are fighting it is necessary that in Russia itself there should no longer be irivs- tice or oppreasion.’’ Baron Rosen threw all of his influence against the pro-Ger- man intrigues of the Czarina and is known to have had frequent conferences with Sir George Buchanan, the. British Ambassagor, when it became evident that the revolivtion could not only not be averted but waar 'the only way to prevent a secret peace between Russia and Germany in the interests of autoc- racy. 9 ITALIAN COMMISSIONERS ILL Teer Pesatpened When Priace Udine and Mareeni Can’s Depart.

The election contest of James P. Newell, Democrat, against Frank M. Slater, Republican, for the office of Public Administrator, was dismissed by Judge Cave today on a technical- ity because the contest papers were served on Slater by Andrew H. Wat- son, a process server, instead of by the Sheriff. Judge Cave found that under a recent ruling the supreme court it was necessary for the Sheriff to make the service, and that the Wervice by Watson was illegal. Slater defeated Newell for Public Ad- ministrator, on the face of returns hy less than 100 votes. Newell has spent several months collecting evidence to be presented to the Court to sustain his claim that he was legally elected. New- ell served four years as Public Adinir- istrator, and was renominated by his party last fall.

PREDICTS SAN FRANCISCO WILL GET ADVERTISING MEN IN 1918 President Houston Speaks at Planters Hotel Dinner—Senator Johnson ’ Gives Californth a Slogan. The San Francisco Advertising Club dispensed California fruit and food and eloquence at a dinner at the Planters Hotel last night. Senator Johnson, Pres- ident Houston of the Associated Adver- tising Clubs of the World and other na- tional officers were guests of honor. President Houston, in a spéech, pre- ditted that San Francisco would get the 1918 convention. William Woodhead, for- mer president, predicted the same thing. He and Senator Johnson advised that “Show Them California’ be the koy- note for the entertainment programm. Thirty members of the San Francisco delegation, constituting the ‘flying squadron,’’ which is relied on to get t15 1938 convention for San Francisco, ar- rived in St. Louis at 6 p m.

Cliff Durant, trail blazer of the Frisco contingent, drove VISITORS Delegates to Convention Attend Services in Churches Through- out City. Pulpits of many St. Louis churches were occupied yesterday morning by visiting ministers who talked on the value of publicity to churches and re- ligious movements. The clergymen came to St. Louis in connection with the con- vention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. The viewpoint of the ministers, as voiced in their sermons, was that news- paper advertising is often essential to the success of the church, or of religious campaigns undertaken for various pur- poses. The delegates to the convention attended the churches throughout the city. The Rev. Dr. Chester C. Marshal) of St. James’ Methodist Church, New York City, preached at the First Presbyterian Church, Sarah street and Washington boulevard, on the subject of applying modern business methods to church work. “Some people object to chureh adver- tising as merely a means to catch a crowd,’’ he said, ‘and not to constrain people to accept Jesus. This is only an- other proof that there are men in the ministry who do not oelong there. Some say that church advertising is undigni- fied. It is, sometimes, if the motive is selfish, or we are not trained in the fine art of advertising. If we advertise we will try harder to deliver the goods. We can reclaim lost trade and get new cus- tomers. We spend $100,000 to equip a plant for preaching and often fail to gather in the people for whom the out- lay was made. All kinds of advertising that are legitimate for high-class busi- ness are all right for the ehurch.’’ Church Is a Business. In a sermon at the Union Methodist Church the Rev. E. Robb Zebring. of Chicago declared that the greatest need of the churches was for agents who give their time to selling the Gospel of Jesus Christ. To put religion to the front, he added, the. n Christianity must consider their church and religion as a business and themselves ag salesmen. “It Pays to Advertise,’’ was the sub- ject of the sermon of the Rev. D. D: Weigle of Philadelphia at the Third Baptist Church. He declared newspaper publicity was a good way to bring the church to the attention of the public, and also urged the use of slides at pic- ture shows and advertisements in street cars. ’ The Centenary Methodist Church at Sixteenth and Pine streets was filled to hear the sermon of the Rev. Dr. Chris- tian F. Reisner, head of the church de- partment of the Associated Advertising Clubs. He declared that church adver- tising was justified by the Bible, and that advertising methods were used by Christ, as for instance when he preached from aboat. “Publicity in church should be used as freely as good music, and it is being: ing. a 2 ial 4 f War, He Declares. — NEW YORK, June (—David Law rence, Washington correspondent of the | New York Evening Post, sends the fol” lowing to his paper today: Guglielmo Marconi, Senator in Italian Parliament, Captain in the ian Navy, and inventor o fthe has given to the New York Post corfespondent his frst since arriving in the United States the Royal Italian mission.

The remainder, he said, went for postage. literature and the neces- of the association who went to Jeffer- son City in the interest of the bill. The trading stamp bill sought to place a prohibitive tax on the giving 0° trading stamps. A large fund was in evidence in the lobbying on this bill. It was held up in its progress through the Legisiature, and although there were several bills with virtually the sa‘ue ob- ject, the one which was permitted to get on the third reading calernds~ in the House, was found to have been amended in the committee to complete- ly change its purpose and its object. This bill was introduced in the House by Representative Frank H. Farris of Rolla, who admitted to a Post-Dispatch reporter when. the ‘joker’ bill was called to his attention that he had in- troduced it in the committee and had caused it to be substituted for his origi- nal bill. His explanation was: ‘T came to the conclusion that the bill should not pass, and I thought that was a good way to put it to sleep.”’ Advocates of the bill who had not dis- covered the joker were satisfied with its progress and neglected to push a Dill they had caused to be introduced in the Senate. When they discovered the joker the session was too far advanced to get the Senate bill through. There were many rumors of graft in connection with the soft drink tax Dill and the chiropractic bill, it being report- ed that a large fund had been raised to prevent the passage of the soft drink bill, and a large fund to promote the passage of the chiropractic bill. Soft drink manufacturers maintained a lobby at the capital, as did also the chiropo- dists and the State Medical Society, which opposed the chiropractic Dill. Circuit Attorney McDaniel said today that he had no information regarding any measure except the police salary bill, but that many rumors had been brought to him. It was for the purpose of having these investigated that he asked that the Attorney-General be as- signed to the matter, he said, Jeten’ —?

S. Senator Johnson Speaks. Sun, skies and surroundings helped the advertising men to put inspiration into their inspirational meeting at W.ashing- ton University yesterday afternoon. The quadrangle, a gcholastic inclosure bounded and library buildings the Juildings, by the classroom of university, open-air meeting place. The with their old English architecture, mel- and fringe of ivy, Suggest a they and it was not strange that one of the speak- though their the was low color greater age than possess, ers termed them “historic,” history began only with the World’s Fair of 13 years ago. Under the Norman turrets of the main building, within the quadrangle, was seen the clock over the central arch- from way, with a Latin motto reminding stu- dents and visitors that ‘“‘The hours pass, but our work remains.”’ Those within range of the archway could look toward Forest Park and along Lindel: boule- vard to the dome of the new cathedral— a view to which Chancellor Hall called attention, and which many enjoyed fully on their way out. Through the open southwest corner of the quadrangle, there was a green vista of lawns and fields. Weather Comfortably Warm, Over-decoration was avoided, and while the platform at the south end of the inclosure was hung with bunting, the visiting delegation, with their bright hatbands, the summer-clad audience and the Boy Scouts, with their flags, were the chief items of the color scheme. The sunlit inclosure was just warm enough, between occasional cloudy moments, to cause a smile when the phrase ‘our place in the sun’’ occurred in one of the speeches. Fifty members of the Symphony Or- chestra and more than 100 of the Pag- eant Choral Society sat on the stage, at the right of the speakers, tion officials and local committee mem- pers. At the rear was a picture of Pres- jdent Wilson, more notable for size than for artistic merit. In the windows eiound the inclosure were Boy Scouts, conven- be freed from autocracy, that Russia might become a worthy sister republie. that England might be united and Ire- land satisfied by home rule, that Italy might gather back its alienated people, that the women of France might return from the field to the home, and tharc America might attain broader democ- racy. That these aims may be carried out, he said, business must be kept alive. ‘“‘Closed shops do not pay in- comes, bankrupts do not leave in- heritances, smokeless factories do yield excess profits.” The advertisine men, he declared, must be the sunshine of business, the creative genius, and in not this way they can “write not only ad- vertisements, but history.’’ Acting Mayor Aloe and President Linn of the St. Louis Advertising Club both complimented Mayor Kiel, absent because of illness, who attended the last convention in Philadelphia and helped to bring the present convention to St. Louis. Chancellor Hall of the univer- sity, an orator of natural grace and long training, made a most favorabi- impression by his frank acknowledg- ment that college heads had not vet learned just how to combine needed ad- vertising methods with the traditiona! dignity of their institutions. He as- sured the advertising men that no pari of the institution, from gymnasium to chapel, was too good for them, and that the university, in all its departments was open to them for the week. Herbert S. Houston, president of the Associated Advertising Clubs, spoke briefly on the duty of business men in wartime. When the song, “Onward, Mighty Leaders,’’ was sung, to the tune of “On- ward, Christian Soldiers,’ some won- dered whether United States Senator Hli- ram W. Johnson of California, the chief speaker of the afternoon, was Within hearing. As Col.

The fixed policy of ‘splendid isolation’’ and ‘‘no entangling alliances”’ has given way to one of intimate alliance with many nations. The Monroe Doec- trine, which was based on American non- interference in European affairs, and the traditional method of military serv- ice, have also been transmuted to meet the new demand. He quoted very ef- fectively the words of former Senator Beveridge, ‘‘God leads, we follow the flag, and the republic never retreats.” He declared the motto of the present to be ‘Service and sacrifice for every American.”’ A Texas delegation, most of them wearing Dallas hatbands, made a dem- onstration of enthusiasm when the or- chestra played ‘‘Dixie’’ in the course of a medley, “The Red, White and Blue’ was also played, and the usual number of persons mistook it for “The Star- Spangled Banner’ and,stood up, com- pelling others to do so. The real na- tional air was played soon afterward. The benediction, by the Rey. Father Otting, president of St. Louis University, was followed by the singing of the Faliesu7en Chorus from Handel’ s “‘“Mes- ‘Siah.’ 7 3500 ARE PRESENT AT CONVENTION OF: ADVERTISING CLUBS Continued From Pare One. — << give yo utwentyfold in some form or another, Confident of the Fund. “Why do I know that 3100,000,000 will be raised—why am I so confident when probably not a dollar of it is raised this moment? It is because they have the solemn pledge of the Advertising of the World to lay before the 10b,0,.0%) people of the United States of America the necessity of Europe and, believe. me, when they have done that I know they will respond.” Wade predicted that the longer the war continued the greater would be the Clibs national prosperity. The problem, he said, would not be finding employirent for the people, but finding people ‘o work in factories and mines, anid «n the farms. “When we spend the stupendous sum of $600,000,000 per month,”’ he said, “‘and if war continues it will De a billion. per month, every dollar of that movey ts spent within our owWn country.” Gives Housewives’ View.

Arrangements for the parade of dele- gates to the thirteenth annual conven- tion of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World tonight along a downtown route, about three miles long, were com- pleted this morning. The line of delegates and floats, the latter ranging itn cost from $20 to $1500, is expected to be more than two miles long. It starts at 7:30 from Twenty-sec- cnd and Market streets and, after trav- ersing the principal streets of the busi- ness section east of Jefferson avenue, will disband on Twelfth street. The streets along the line of march will be kept clear of all other traffic by the police, aided by 500 Boy Scouts. Twelfth street between Locust and Mar- ket streets, which for the occasion has been named “Advertising Plaza,”’ has been strung with several thousand eelc- | tric lights, and decorated with white pil- lars, each of which is surmounted by the Advertising Clubs “Truth” emblem. Through this plaza the parade will pass just before disbanding, and there it will be viewed by visiting delegates and their families, who will occupy re- Served seats to which only persons wearing the official convention badge will be admitted. The reserved section has seats for 7500 persons. The floats, which are intended to be elaborate, will be illuminated by col- ored lights, and between them and sec- tions of the marchers 10 bands will be distributed. For the guidance of automobilists Commissioner Talbert of the Depart- ment of Streets and Sewers has issued rules for the parking of cars for the evening. The available parking spaces will be Twelfth street, south of Market; Eleventh street, Olive to Market: Thir- teenth street, Chestnut to Washington; Fourteenth street, Pine to Washington: Fifteenth street, Market to Washingon, and other neighboring streets if they are not included in the line of march and if there are no car lines on them. come back stronger than éver, it is a pretty poor quality of business. “What America needs to do is to push on and on—building up—conserving, vworking—earning—yes, and storing worthily. In our greater and continued National progress is our protection Business as Usual Essential. “In ‘business as usual,’ only more so lies the welfare of the nation. “I am for optimism... I am for op- timists. And you advertising men of the world are our truest business op- timists. It is you who, to a large ex- tent, have kept the flag flying-for ‘busi- ness as usual.’ “And to the newspapers of: America, .he leaders, the best representatives of the press, daily, weekly and monthly, we owe a debt for the good work they are doing, not in the suppression, but in the stimulation of legitimate business. “Sane ecOnomy and elimination of waste are always wise. But stinting, hoarding—the paralysis of business, mean simply inviting catastrophe, with- cut the slightest reason exqept un- grounded fear. 2 “This surély is a time for the sup- pression of the calamity howler. The country is all right. “The prosperous nation ig the strong nation. Reduce the nation’s resources— suspend production, clog the wheels of manufacture—throw an army of bread winners out of employment, and you not only sap America’s vitality, but you work a positive injury to the _ indi- vidual. “Success is and always will be recip- rocal. If we stop buying, sooner or later, automatically, we cease receiving the means wherewith to buy. That is the law of compensation. “The national Government has shown itself particularly wise at present, in my humble opinion, in placing a proper valuation upon agricultural activities. It is a less spectacular work to feed the world than to fight a nation's batties, but after all no legs important. And ir our Government's recognition of the Soldiers of the Soil, the new national movement for bigger, better crops, Un- cle Sam has proved his pre-eminent wis- dom. “Personally, I believe in advertising —first, last and all the time. We have absolutely demonstrated what the ap- Plication of advertising to a certain definite territory will do. We have taken the surplus population of the East to the vacant lands of the West. “Wie have lately proved to our sat- isfaction that anything desirable is advertisable, whether it be an article of food, national bank or a national park. “Let us live up to the rich possibil- ities of our agricultural empire. Let us keep our mills going and our men working. Let us advertise to stimulate demand and keep courage strong. “All that the Dusiness of America needs is confidence——confidence in it- self—confidence in its products and markets—confidence in its future “America’s energy, aided by the forces and the axencies which you represent, is equa) to the triumphant mastery of present conditions—more than adequate to turn even War into an engine of national and of a new and greater national development.” The departmental! sessions, beginning at 2p. m. are those of advertising agents, advertising film vertising specialty manufacturers, agri- cultural publishers, business press, car advertising, church advertising. com- munity advertising, direct-mail advertis- ing, directory publishers, employing Hth- ographersa, financial advertisers, graphic arts, national periodical, national adver- | DEAT a's WIESENBORN—At Waterioo, IL, on Sunday.

A A Post-Dispatch reporter, investigat- ing violations of the Sunday- “closing law on the East Side yesterday, found sa- loons at Allen’s Park, Fairmont Park and Fairmont on the Edwardsville road, and at Grossroads, on the St. Louis «& O'Fallon Rallroad, running wide open and doing a thriving business. At all of the places many women were served, All of these places are in St. Clair County. Hubert BE. Schaumieffel is State’s Attorney of the county and*the duty of enforcing the. closing law de- volves chiefly upon him. Recently Schaumleffel said he would do as he was directed by the Attorney-General of the State with regard to the selling of liquor on Sundays in the county. Attor- ney-General Brundage. instructed. him two weeks ago to order the Mayors of Fairmount and Brooklyn to enforce the laws and to prosecute them for misfeas- atice in office if they failed to obey the orders. Crossroads Place Crowded. | Crossroads. a roodhouse and garden conducted , O. Hein, was crowded ali day and until nearly midnight, when the last car on the East St. Louis & Sub- urban electric line for St. Louis left the place. A dance pavilion operated in connection with the place was crowded and many of the girls on the floor ap- peared to be between 14 and 16 years old. Intoxicating liquors.were served to these girls between dances. _ Any men seeking introductions to some of the girls that they might dance were referred to “Mr. Wheatiey,” a youth, who seemed to be master of ceremonies in the dance pavilior. Wheatley said to the reporter: ‘You don’t need an introduction, just grab any girl on the floor that isn’t danc- ing; it'll be all right, they've got * to dance.’’ Admission to the dance pa- vilion was 2 cents. During the evening the barroom in the roadhouse was crowded at all times. Beer and whisky were served at the bar, as well as at the tables in the gar- den. No attempt was made to conceal the fact that liquor was being sold. The entrance to the barroom, only a few yards from the car tracks, was. open and persons passing could see into the saloon. | Two Fights in Garden, Two fights occurred in the garden, one between the bartender, who had gone outside for some fresh air, and a cus- tomer, and the other between two men who left the dance floor to combat. The latter fight resulted from the .woman companion of one of the men declaring that the other had laughed at her poor dancing when she passed him on the dance floor. The fighting did not cause any excite- ment among the women and girls pres- ent and many crowded about the little knot of men who gathered about the contestants and tried to peer over. their: shoulders the better to see the fight. The crowd at the place was made up of miners from the neighborhood and visitors from St. Louts and East St Louis. The late cars from the road- house toward St. Louis -were packed when they left the place. Most of the women and girls appeared to have come from St. Louis and East St. Louls..Many were unescorted. Several were intoxi- cated. A visit of a reporter to Crossroads on Sunday, a week ago, revealed much the same condition, although the crowd was smaller, because of rain which fell all afternoon and evening. On that occasion the bar- tender engaged in two fights in the barroom with cus®&mers. Hein, the proprietor of the place, told the reporter the rain hai “spoiled his fun” and invited him to return on some better Sunday, declaring he would show the reporter the “livest place on the Hast Side.” Drinks Sold Freely Elsewhere. At Allen's Park, yesterday, drinks were being sold freely, both in the barroom and a large adjoining room where there were tables and a dance floor. There was no dancing or music at Allen's, but many women were drinking at the ta- bles. Fairmont Park, a short disthnce down the road from Allen’s, was not doing as large a business as the latter place, but there were nearly 100 men and women seated at the tables inside the building during the time the reporter was at the place. Several saloons in Fairmont, a village of about 60 population, near Allen's and The reporter bought drinks at three of these places and was told that all of the saloons were open. There were 14 sa- loons in the village. ean Rooma, 417 N, Seventh A gelightful F place to entertain your vis- MISSOURI RIVER RISE RAPID The Missouri River is rising rapidly in . »tete ;* ;F. 4 ; v "h@eLT@e he ,.el@ le) e@ilatletl « int “4 4¢ T} aS ' 4 a4 it aE i retain } bist tPRIAGAAARERTEENOULHJARRYCPPEAGGLAGEEDPTPPER e*te.treaeeiew aoe) ® *L£eL.ei,* *®eege lee *i@¢ * — 7. « > 7” v “zene *®heoiaeire f PLe@Fe elie. eleie ARUP NUTAAGTA ESHA AAMGRESNGU Gage SFEECAGGMSHENN *,¢@ ,e,8e > Th BALCTECAR eT HR Fe rece \ r sini i TM A 7 aa > . tf * >. * mali Wt At tH 4 ‘ sien aaUA ‘la en: da didnt SLES SSLeCe_LetcPgceteresege > - Stylish Sweaters At $15.00 : Fiber Coat—a new model, shown in the illus- tration—has elastic adjustable waist with an exceptionally large collar...

Sn Miss ‘Margaret raat ‘Sakis Employe of Holman Com- pany, Arrested in Omaha. “Information received by the police to- day from the Chief of Police of Omaha, ‘Neb., telling of the arrest there of Miss Margaret Holton, 22 years old, formerly of 4858 Maryland avenue, revealed the indictment here of the young woman, whom the police have been seeking for two months. Circuit Attorney McDan- jel is drawing up requisition papers, and Miss Holton will be returned here to stand trial for forgery as soon as all le- gal requirements are complied with. Miss Holton,. who formerly was book- keeper for the Holman Paper Box Co., is now shown to have been indicted by the grand jury which returned true bills against Paul O. Sommer, secretary and treasurer of the Holman company. She is charged with forgery in four separate cases. Ali the checks are signed with the name of John B.

Sommer’s books were audited about the first of the year, when a shortage was discovered and hé later was arrested. After the indictment of Sommer it was found Miss Holton had disappeared. Nothing was heard of her until the tele- | gram from Omaha was received today. Hoiman, before the gtand jury, testi- fied he became sick about three years ago and left his business entirely in charge of Sommer. He said he noticed f that Sommer and Miss Holton often had ecnversations in which other members of the concern .took no part. Molman identified signatures on. the checks as being in the handwriting of Miss Hol- ton. Comparisons of her handwriting with these signatures were rr to be the same. Sommer is married and lives at 3938 has been .promi- -nently identified in past years with Ger- man social affairs and was a director of the German War Bazar in this city.

College, Anatole Lamnanoff, who; by his eloquence and and toe—very chnanaat tia his flaming enthusiasm and his unex- ampied energy, recenily made, himself president of the local council of Work- men’s and Soldiers’ Deputies and virtu- ally Kronstedt's dictator. ' When the Associated Press spondent arrived today at the island fortress he found everything quiet, the soldiers and the townspeople awaiting patiently the beginning by Lamanoff of negotiations with the Petrograd Council otf Deputies, which is the only author- itv Kronstadt now recognizes. Kronstadt's master is a smooth-faced, dark-haired, soft-eved young man in a student's uniform. He is magnetic and ready of apeech. He gained fame before the revolution by the delivery of strik-, ing lectures to workmen in which he gave vent to bitter satire and daring in- nuendos against autocracy. Lamanoff aims at being a Napoleon and a Rousseau at the same time, com- bining a resolute Government with the propagation of nove) political and social ideas. His program consists of the sub- division of Russia into innumerable pet- ty centers ruled by local groups of Sol- diers and Workmen's Deputies, and united only in the loosest way by, a con- gress of representatives of the local councils sitting in Petrograd. “That,’’ said Lamanoff, ‘‘is the import of our declaration that for Kronstadt the provisional Government does not ex- ist. We reject a federation as too close a union for a genuine democracy. We intend Kronetadt to be a model for all Russia and expect that other centers soon will follow our example.

Bishop Kelly had drawn his chair close to the grate fire.. He had bent over and was looking into the flames with his hands clasped on his knees. At the question he sat erect. A frown came over his face. The smile left his eyes. “That is where you Americans al- ways make their fundamental mistake in trying to understand the Irish situa- tion,”” he said with a suggestion of warmth. “You do not understand, this country. You do not appear to be able to grasp the spirit at all. All vou seé, apparently, is a little privation here or there and you conclude immediately that Ireland’s empty stomach is crying out for food. In that you are wiong. You have more poverty, relativiy. in New York City than we -have in Ire land. “The Spirit of Ireland.” “It is not food that we are asking for.

STOCKHOLM, June 4.—The deiegates of the German majority Socialists to the Socialist conference have arrived here, headed by Philip Scheidemann. The other members of the delegations are Sassenbach, Ebert Molkenbuhr, Fisher, Legien, Bauer and Hermann Moller. T. Stauning, Danish Socialist Minister without portfolio, accompanied the delegates from Copenhagen. | The Germans have hope for the best, but with no great optimism, to judge from the words of Molkenbuhr, veteran mittee. In an interview with a corre- nde@at of the Associated Press Mol«- enbuhr said: “I fear that peace will not result from the Stockholm conference, but that whoever wants peace will come to see whether there is any chance of securistg- it here. Even if we do: not succeéd, we shall perhaps at least have kept the peace movement alive.”’ The German leader was told that the Dutch and Scandinavian delegates did not consider that the rehabilitation of Belgium came under the term indemnity, and was asked what was his attitude on this question. He replied that that was probably one of the things to be adjust- ed at the general peace conference. i1¢€ denied that the Germans had any part in the bringing about of the Stockholm conference and added: ‘But if. the Americans, English and French will not believe the assertions of the Dutch mem. bers, they will not believe us either.” ‘ Leeds, England. » LEEDS, England, June 4.—Eleven hun- dred delegates, 10 per cent of whom were women, assembied in the Coliseum here yesterday to hail the Russian revolution. They represented the extreme pacifis* and. Socialist organizations, including the Independent Labor party. Resolu- | tions wete adopted proclaiming sympa- | thy_with the work directed to the ac- j-+complishment of peace without annexa- tionor indemnities, and demanding that the British Government support that formula in harmony with the Russian Government. Other resolutions were adopted favo-- ing freedom of the press and speech and calling for the establishment in Er- gland of a workmen's and _ soidiers’ group on the Russian model to work for a people's ‘peace.”’ Disorders occurred in the neighbor- hood of the Coliseum in the evening. Demonstrators hooted the Socialists an‘ jeered those apparently of military age and repeztedly tried to rush the pa- cifigts* whom the police had great dif- ficulty in defending.

He said that It was estimated there would be 30.00) Catholics in the first draft army of §0,- 000, and that he was giad to hear it. The Archbishop said that the Y. M. C.

The ad man is a product of intensive business cultivation. He is both scientist and artist. At the beginning his trade was a haphazard, ex- perimental sort of thing, uncertain of value and insecurely founded. It is no longer experimental; it has attained the dignity of a most respected profession and its foundations reach the bed- rock of unshakable commercia! stability. Modern advertising in America offers the rather unusual spectacle of a mystic force har- nessed to a most practical materialism. It taken the most potent moral factor in twen- tieth century life and has set it to turning the wheels of industry. That force is Publicity. In former years, busimess was inclined to leave publicity to the writers of the newspapers. Now and then one more far-sighted than others saw in it possibilities of usefulness, but even his employment of it was sporadic and not always fruitful. It remained for the ad man who is with us today to find the means of a happy co-ordina- tion between the psychological power of publicity and the every-day demands of high-class gales- manship.

Your remarkable editorial in your issue Mf the 20th, in which you quote some “know- all” theorist in his conclusion as to the @ause of negro migration from the South, Was just raached me.. (The so-called theo- rist was a native and present resident of Virginia, experienced in research work.— Bd. Post-Dispatch.) Having been born and tred in the South, and reared in intimate contact with the ne- gro for 30 or more years, I feel that I am better suited to express an opinion upon the use of the negro migration at this time your eminent authority, or even the of your editorial. out fear of successful contradiction, I can say that nowhere tn this country are megroes better treated than in the South. If a megro respects the law, and himself,’ there is no Mmit to his advancement and opportunity in the South. In Atlanta, Ga., there ate negroes who are worth a quarter of a million dollars, are bank presidents, ts of insurance companies, doctors, and in fact among their own peo- ple they occupy practically every place in life open to white people. Of course, they are not allowed the great (apparentiy) privilege aimed at by bigoted and usually worthless negroes of social equality. But mo self-respécting negro desires social equality as it is generally understood. | It ie true that we lynch negroes for rape, and will ¢ontinue to do so, so long as the crime ig committed. But we have never vet lynched a negro in the South for trying go peacefully to work as was done in Pana, Ill, not many years ago. Whites and negroes work together in the South. To my mind it ig high time that papers of the prominence of yours should wake up and cut out all this foolishness and stop lecturing the South. Anyone with a grain of common sense should be alle to see that the present migration is due to economical reasons, in a word to higher wages for leas work, and absolutely nothing else. ' “Lay off” lecturing the South, which is entirely able to solve its own problems without the help of the Post-Dispatch, or even of the eminent “nut” you quote. G. A. CUNNINGHAM.

Attorney-General Brundage of Illinois has drawn the issue between mud and morals in St. Clair County. Fairmount, near Past St. Louis, used to have a great deal of mud and a commen- surate quantity of morality. It is now nicely rid of most of its mud and a large amount of its morality. The Mayor and Aldermen want to con- tinue bartering the town’s morality for the money that makes the mud go. Fairmount got rid of ite mud by welcoming dis- orderly saloons which paid for the privilege of breaking the laws. It was not put that way in the compact; evidenced by the license granted by the city, but it worked out that way. There was gambling and the 14 saloons in the town of 600 were conducted in a disorderly manner to at- tract disorderly patronage from St. Louis and East St. Louis. The Attorney-General wrote to Mayor Thomas ordering him to enforce the laws. The Mayor gathered his Aldermen together and hurried to Springfield and’ they told the Attorney-General! about the mud that they used to have, now hap- pily no more because of the granitoid sidewalks that had been built with the money obtained by permitting the saloon keepers to violate the laws. The Attorney-General agreed that mud was bad, but reminded them that there were worse things, and one worse thing was for a community to profit by permitting immorality in its midst. It were better, he told them, for a community to wade in mud than to wade in lawlessness. They were given the choice of switching back to law or having him do it for them. They have promised that within 30 days they will find a way to preserve a more even balance between mud and morais. Since speculation in July wheat was halted three weeks ago the price of that cereal has dropped 72 cents ana the crop prospects have improved. Even nature abhors a food gambler. ~“OOPPERHEADS OF 1917. President Wilson’s proclamation makes it plain that it will be useless to try to evade military registration. Tuesday by leaving American soil. Even if slackers reach Mexico or Canada or put to sea, they will be prosecuted when they return to the jurisdiction of the United States. The essential fact for all men between the ages of 21 and 80 inclusive to remember is this:* That by the provision of the act of May 18— Any person who shall willfully fall or refuse to present himeelf for registration, or to sub- mit thereto as herein provided, shall be guilty of a miedemeanor and shall upon conviction in a Gistrict court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof be punished by imprison- ment for not more than one year and shal! thereupon be duly registered. Those who prefer to go to jail before they reg- ister can do 80, but they will be registered anyway. Those who believe that “when we resist registra- tion we shall be resisting conscription” are doubly mistaken. They are merely inviting arrest and imprisonment without in the least canceling their military obligations. Those who expect to be mar- tyre pre likewise doomed to disappointment. The American people have not taken kindly to the species of martyr who seeks to win his martyr- dom by disloyalty to the Government in time of war, or by dodging military service or by Inciting others to shirk. Ten years after the Civil War no man was proud of having been a Copperhead. No descendant of a Copperhead ever boasted of his ancestors’ atti- tude toward the Government in the hour of its extremity. Today the men who fought in the ‘yanks of the South are held in high honor and esteem. On Seminary Ridge at Gettysburg the heroic statue of Robert E. Lee faces the heroic statue of George G. Meade on Cemetery Ridge. But nowhere is there a monument to Capperheadisem, land nowhere, at no timé, do men make pilgrim- ages to the graves of Copperheads. History has pronounced its verdict upon them and they have been left to the mercy of oblivion. So will it be with those who set themselves against their Government in this war.

In response to the appeal of Cireuit Attorney McDaniel] and in accord with his clear duty pointed out by the Post-Dispatch, Gov. Gardner has instructed Attorney-General McAllister to co-operate with Mr. McDaniel in St. Louis and to undertake the vigorous prosecution of inquiries into legislative boodle scandals wherever it may be necessary or advisable. - way to comprehensive and thorough investigation the result depends upon the vigor, capacity and determination of the Attorney-General and the law officers with whom he co-operates. A beginning has been made in this city. The foundation of a successful prosecution has been started. Information disclosing the trail of boodle in the State Legislature has been ob- tained. Indictments which supply leverage and means of further probing have been brought. There is ground for the belief that the police slush fund conspiracy is only a beginning. If there is any truth in current reports concerning the use of boodle in connection with a number of measures handled by the Legislature, the field of inquiry is fruitful. Talk of crookedness has been rife ever since »the organization of th? Legislature. Surface indications are strong. It is necessary to follow the trails persistently and skillfully. Facts about boodle deals and evidence of them can only. be obtained by persistent, ca- pable work. The basis of success is the deter- mination to press the inquiry to a successful con- clusion without fear or favor. No greater service for the people can be ren- dered than the exposure of corruption in public office, especially the legislative office upon which so much depends. Men who prove their courage and capacity in work of this kind win public approval and confidence in exceptional measure. inciting isa Mca RUSSIANS YEARN POR LIGHT.

Those who live in a land where one of the prin- cipal duties of the state is to see that all have an opportunity to learn may not easily compre- hend the fierceness of the Russian thirst for in- formation. As for Russia herself, it is the most reassuring gleam of hope that has come to her in her great struggle towards the light. = = * — a oe Amateur gardeners in St. Louis have raised such ou back yards that the regular market is glutted.

From the San Antonio Express. Last week the news went out that, on a farm near Fort Worth, a reaper and binder went inte a ripe wheat field and cut the first grain of the 1917 wheat harvest. The news caused a thrill of excitement in the wheat pits of the world. The strring news was sent to the remotest boundaries of civilisation. The news meant much to the world, for the war, the submarine and the biock- ades had eaten into the food supply until shert- age faced all and starvation faced many. It meant that from this spring near Fort Worth an summer, until the great river torrent of wheat from Kansas and the Dakotas and the vast plains of Canada would flow into the granaries of the world.

OORATES: Someone raised the point at the Agora last night that inasmuch as four months have elapsed since the Germans undertook their sub- marine campaign, it would perhaps be interesting to have me say what I thought of it. I was very glad to respond to such a suggestion, and therefore stood up on my soapbox and expressed what I felt to be true of that tremendous experiment. I say tremendous not only because the submarine is a new and potent weapon of warfare, but because of the consequences to herself of failure in such a eampaign as Germany has undertaken. There has hardly been another such instance in history of contempt for the world and the world’s opinion. We may assume that if the subma- rine campaign had succeeded, there need not have been any apology upon the part of Germany for it. Might would have made it right. That is, this would have been true so far as anyone could have done any- thing about it. Its failure is quite a different thing. It involves a great deal more than the mere physi- cal defeat of Gegman arms. The thing stands as wrong, and having been without the might to make it right, Germany is left to bear the odium of having attempted it. Glaucon: for it. Socrates: Precisely. The German people only con- sented to such a resort when they were convinced that the campaign would succeed. They were led to believe that it would end the war within two or three months. No doubt it was well understood over there that if the slighest doubt attached to the venture Germany could not afford to make it. It had to win. Desperation is a mild term for the mood in which Germany finally took the plunge. Very well. What has been the result? After four months the Germans thethselves begin to see the thing is a failure. We are told they are murmuring. Murmuring! They are lost. They have risked everything—the war, the world’s respect, their future relations with human- kind—and have lost! The submarine has not brought England to its knees. It has not brought peace. It has only brought the rest of the world in against Ger- many. What a horrible blunder! What a colossal error of judgment—now and for a hundred years! Polemarchus: Zounds, yes! Socrates: You may well say so, Polemarchus. It 1s a fitting cap to the whole stupendous structure of stupidity—e monument forever to Prussianism and ail the fool things for which it stands. The German peo- ple will have to do their carn thinking. -They will have to think themselves out of the terrible plight into which their Government has gotten them; and they will have to think their way through the dark years to come. Thrasymachus: What do you suppose they will say when they find out the submarine campaign to «Sat, ure? Socrates: They will say very ttle, in my opinion.

' Observation and experience have taught us to speak of marrriage as the greatest of all lotteries, and to @ say that no one is enough of a ‘prophet to foretell how a _ wedding ‘is going to turn out, nor what sort -ofa husband or wife a man or woman ® will be. Yet it is within the ability of every ® mother to change marriage from be- ® ing ® lottery into being a certainty, ® and to assure every man and woman ® who gets married of getting a gool ® wife or husband. It is strictly with- @ in the power of mothers who are ® raising up children to stop divorce '® within one generation, and blot do- ‘= mestic misery out of the universe. There is no mystery in what con- |@ stitutes a good husband or wife. It requires no marvelous gifts nor sup- ded to this we could get some real ‘sympathy and tenderness and appre- ciation, we should consider ourselves ' among the most blessed of all mortals. Suppose, for instance, a mother started out with the benevolent in- _ tention of raising her son up to be ® a good husband for some unknown -litttle girl. She could teach him the ' tlemental moralities and that a man -is a dastard who deliberately wrecks 4% & woman's life by marrytng her if he ® is drunken or diseased. She could teach her son the chivalrous @ attitude towards .women. She could @ teach him to be generous and unselfish ® to his wife. She could teach him all the little things, the little attentions and courtesies that women love, and she could make him such a husband as “would make his wife's heart sing for | joy.

The mother lets her boy grow up selfish and surly and filled with con- tempt for women and their ways, and he marries to be just as tyrannical and in- considerate a husband as his father has been before him. Nor is the mother any more concerned about providing some hapless young man with a good wife than she is some unfortunate young woman with a good husband. She raises her daughter up to be spoiled and extravagant and lazy and shiftless, with no consideration for any other human being on earth but herself. She doesn’t even teach her daughter how to cook or to Manage a house, so that her husband will be sure of a com- fortable home. She doesn’t teach her daughter how to sew or how to Save, or even how to spend money 80 as to get the best out of it, so that she may be a real helpmeet to -her husband. On the contrary, nothing is more com- mon than to hear mothers say: ‘I’m not going to teach my daughters how to cook. There'll be time enough for them to learn that after they get mar- ried,’” or “I’m going to indulge my daughters in everything I can. It will be time enough for them to do without things after they are married,’’ and the mothers dump these selfish, undisci- plined, incompetent girls on unsuspect- ing men without a pang of remorse for the misery they are inflicting on the poor husbands. Among my acquaintances is a splendid young feillow full of ambi- tion and energy and talent, who would go far except for the handicap he carries in the shape of a wife, whose mad extraagance keeps him continually in debt. Whenever his wife is denied anything she howls and shrieks, and makes such scenes that the poor husband gives in at her mother tacks her up in her tant- rums by saying: “Of course, Tom, I know you can't afford it, but you'll have to get it for Gladys, because she has never been denied anything in her life, or forced to do anything she didn’t want to do.” What a way to bring up a wife for aman! What acrime! Murder would be a less cruel thing to do than to raise a girl to make some man mis- erable for life, or a boy to be the kind of a husband that makes a wo- man wish that her bridal veil had been her shroud. And here is the incongrous thing about it all: The very mothers who are raising up the sort of husbands and wives who will be a curse to some other woman’s children, are praying that their own children will get ex- actly the other kind of matrimonial partners. Is is not time that women tried to be just in this matter, and that every mother had it on her conscience to make her toy and girl such a hus- band and wife as she would be will- ing to see them marry? When that time comes we shall have the domestic millennium, and marriage will cease to be a failure. a ae eamemenapeaes — ——-- — (Copyright, 1917, wy, a Wheeler Syndicate, ne. keepers to vary the daily menu | With rhubarb in various guises.

A recent ruling by Secre- tary of War Baker is to the effect that Question 12 need not be answered. Ques- tion 12 is the one that calls for reasons | day printed on its first page an editorial MUNDAY KVENING, JUNE 4, 1917. why the person registering deems him- self exempt from such service. “Tt is the duty of every male inhabi- tant of the United States, irrespective of nationality, to register for such serv- ice. Whatever views one may have en- tertained, or whatever difference of opinion there may have been, or where- ever our sympathies may have been prior to the declaration of war with Germany, now that war has been de- clared there can be but one course of action open to all true and loyal Amer- icans, whether they be of English, Ger- man, French, Italian, Russian or other ancestry. Their first and only duty is to the United States, and now that war is here every male inhabitant of the pre- | scribed age should unhesitatingly and unqualifiedly tender his services to the country. “It is no longer a question as to whether there was any cause for war. That has been settled by the action of Congress, and now that it has been set- tled every eligible American should en- list and render whatever service he can. The days for expression of sympathy have passed. Now is the time for ac- "tion. Register. It is a duty you owe your parents, your family, your flag and your country. “The first call under the draft will be made Sept. 5. The date fixed will afford ample time for arranging all matters and affairs of business. This should be done at once, for the reason that no one knows how long the war may last.

His career has been sim- ilar in many ways to that of the success- ful big business man in America. Very Like an American, In all business matters, he thinks like an American, acts like an American and looks more like an American than like a Scotchman. He loves Ulster and hates the rest of Ireland. He is an active Orangeman and takes great pride in his lodge. He is extremely anti- Catholic. It is understood that during a Catholic-Orangeman fight a number of Catholics were singed in some of the furnaces in his yards. He helped organ- ize Carson’s army and liberally contrib- uted to the fund which brought nee guns and bullets into Ulster.

COLGATE & €O., NEW YORK We Are meron to Announce ing this harbor and improving it. Look at Cork harbor—it is almost perfect; and yet what have they to show for it? “Indolent People Down South,” . “You've heard a lot of talk about) Sir Edward Carson starting trouble in Ulster’ That’s just a pack of lies. Car- started nothing. He had nothing what- ever to gain by leading the volunteers; if it hadn’t been Carson it would have been Brown or Jones or Smith. “Carson is merely our agent in this matter. The people of Ulster are deter- mined that they shall not be overrun by those indolent people down south. People are always saying they can’t understand this situation. It is extreme- ly simple. We've worked hard for gen- erations. We've built up a fine city and can you fancy us turning it over to a gang of lazy politicians to be looted out of its taxes? “People in America suggest that we establish a system of states as you have over there. The is not feasible here, for those people would outvote us three to one and would ruin us before we had been tied up with them any time. “I defy any sensible man to g0 through the south of Ireland, with its laziness and its consequent hunger, and then come up here and tell us that we should subject ourselves to“the rule of those people. It is simply unthinkable. “Aceuse Us of Being Rebels.” “People accuse us of being rebels. You may call us rebels if you care’ to, but we are extremely proud of the kind of rebelion we started. Any right to fight for his inalienable right to be a British subject. No Parilament nor King can légally take from a people the heritage for which their fathers fought through generations. Read the history of the Ulster plantation and see what this little colony went through dur- ing the hundreds of years tha« this handful of people have been hanging on to this corner of Ireland.’’ Clark grew extremely warm in is- cussing the situation. “It ts remarkable the extent to which the United States has been fooled on this question,” he continued. “You hear a great deal of talk about the Irishmen who have gone to America anil pros- pered. It is constantly referred to as proof that the Irishman will prosper when given a chance. “Do the people of America realize that most of the really successful men whe have emigrated came from the north and not the south of Ireland? In other words, they were not Trishmen at all, according to our friends in the south, Presidents of Ulster Stock. “More than one of your Presidents, including Mr. Wileon, came from stock which helped hold the Ulster planta- tions. It is too bad that some of the people who are shouting so loud for home rule can't go through the southern section of this country and see the mess which has been made of it. fectly satisfied. “They talk a lot of rubbish down south about Ulsters having been given preferential treatment by the British man has a, Chambers and 6601 N.

R. well-known East Side woman, of 414 South Main street; said on May 30. . “Stomach trouble caused me to suffer terrible headaches and fre- quent digzy spells, too”. Mrs. McReynolds continued. “At night I would: become very nervous. ‘I felt like I wanted to jump through the roof! Sometimes I would chill and then other times I’d become feverish, my body feeling terribly hot. . My limbs and the muscles across my back were always very sore of mornings, I often dreaded 9 try to get out of bed. “I've ‘just now finished me first bottle of Tanlac and'I tell you, it's hard for me to realize that I’m en- joying good, sound sleep every night.

ST, LOUIS DOCTOR LEAVES BERLIN WITH CHICAGO UNIT Section of American Physicaus’ Ex- pedition Had Been Stationed in Germany for Year. BERLIN, via. London, June 4.—The Chicago unit of the American physi- clans’ expedition, stationed for the last year at Graudenz, left Berlin on Satur- day for Christiania. The party was headed by Dr. Frederick Hagler of St. Louis, The expedition was financed by the German-Austro Relief Committee. Fie has wound up his work and donated the equipment to the United States military hospital at Graudenz. On leaving here Dr. Hagier said, “‘Throughout our stay in Graudenz we were given every cour- tesy by the civil authorities. In the last few months at no time were we made to feel that we were ‘hostile to for- eigners.’ Our leave-taking was cordial.” Dr. Hagler, whose home is at 3953 Del- mar boulevard, left St. Louis for the German hospital station more than a year ago. He previously had served in the American Red Cross unit in Servia, leaving St. Louisa Aug. Il, 1914, and re- turning in September, 1915.
