Says Wilhelm Hohenzollern Still Is the Rnler. London, Nov. 22. The Daily .Mail attributes to a "high official of the British government" the statement that "William Hohenzollern is still German emperor and king of Prussia as far as the British government is informed." "The Berlin government," the offi cial added, according to the Daily Mail, "has not made any communica tion to the allies or the United States notifying us of his abdication. We think it almost certain that if the abdication occurred notification would have been sent at least to the United States. "No obdication document bearing the kaiser's signature is in existence as far as the outside world knows r nothing but thet perfunctory state ment of Prince Maximilian in which he' used the words thron verricht,' meaning renunciation of tha th'one, and not the. ward 'abdankung.' mean ing abdication. Wilhalm, therefore, undoubtedly still regards the throne as his and the world must contemplate the probability that he expects to re turn." Papers Anxious. London, Nov. 22, (British Admiralty wireless); Some of the Dutch news papers have been dealing of late with the presence of the former kaiser and crown prince in the Netherlands. The Telegraaf and some other 'Journals would expel them. Others take a more moderate mood, at the same time ad mitting that it might bring Holland into difficulty. The Nieuws Van Den Tag, a very moderate paper publishes an article on the subject which shows the uneasi ness prevailing in various Dutch cir cles about the presence of the Hohen zollerns. The Kieuws Van Den Tag, a very moderate paper says: "For the present, perhaps, there ta no danger of a plot on our soil against Germany's new democracy among the entourage of the ex-kaiser. "But who can say when this dan ger might not be released if our 'guests' do not depart speedily." "History teaches that kings in exile like to seize a favorable opportunity to reenact their former roles. We de sire to express our frank opinion that not we. but the allied, government nave tne rignt to decide whether the residence on Dutch territory of in dividuals who are considered by them to personify the powers against which they have been fighting is dangerous to them or not. If the Dutch govern ment has another opinion on the sub ject then it will have to bear the con sequence and Dutch nation if tainanv corns to a serious pass, will be in volved in war or iave to starve, -forsooth on behalf of this former Ger man royalties." Keeps In Touch. Amsterdam, Nov- 22.-f-Tho former kaiser is believed constantly in com munication with Germany. It is re ported that a wireless station has been erected on top of Count von Ben tinck's castle and that German air planes frequently fly over the estate dropping messages. And He's Got Money. Amsterdam, Nov. 22. Two hun dred bags of gold and silver German coins each weighing a hundred pounds have arrived in Holland for the for mer kaiser. It was reported here to day. The bags wer brought across the frontier in sealed wagons. They are believed to have been deposited in a small bank in southern Holland. KEEP ON PAPER RULES Publishers Ask Industries Board to Enforce Regulations. Washington, Nov. 22. Newspaper puDUsners have asked is. M. Baruch, chairman of the war industries board, to continue to enforce regulations af fecting newspapers and to continue re strictions in the use of news print pa per by daily and Sunday papers until February 1. Baruch announced today that he has the request under advise ment and that he will announce his decision later. The publishers war service com mittee, in making these recommenda tions, explained that the Industry wants an opportunity to adjust itself to changing conditions arising in the transition period between war and peace. Baruch said that until his decision is made, the existing regulations, will not be altered. THE TERMS ARE RIGHT Asqulth Tells How He Would An swer Prince Llchnowsky. London, Nov: 22 (British Wireless Sevice). Herbert H. Asquith, the former premier, in answer to an ap peal for modification of the armistice terms made by Prince Llchnowsky, former German ambassador in Lon don, said today: "If I had to make a reply to Prince Lichnowsky's letter or any similar ap peal, X snuuiu say luul ihb iits i the armistice did not. in my judgment. in the least exceed the Just necessities of the case.

Scenes Today Differ From v When He Left It. Brussels Nov. 22. Albert, the tri umphant, entered his. capital today. His queen and their children were present. In the brilliant autumn sunshine was enacted this soul-stirring climax to history's most stupendous drama, which reads like the scenario of a classic play. Albert is the hero, and the former kaiser the villain who tried to steal his kingdom and become mas ter of the world. Today the bands were playing and trumpets blaring in joy-mad, be flagged Brussels. The king has recon quered his capital, while the villain is- a fugitive, hiding behind the skirts of a woman Queen Wilhelmina of Holland awaiting whatever fate the allies will deal out to him. And while Wilhelm's empire cronr bles, the Belgians are marching on Germany. BritiBh cavalry is cantering past Waterloo toward Cologne; the Americans are approaching the Rhine across Luxemburg, and the French are hugging Alsace-Lorraine to their bosom. Strassburg is flinging out tri-colored bunting in preparation for another triumphal entry Sunday. The background of the setting is Versailles, where decorators' are touch ing up the chateau in which the peace congress will sit. It is there that the final acts will be portrayed. Belgian troops and gendarmes reached the capital Thursday and re stored quiet. The newspapers re sumed publication and flags are fly ing everywhere in celebration of the return of the king. Some of the ad ministration services of the govern ment resumed their functions in Brus sels Thursday evenine. King Albert will reopen parliament today im 1 mediately after he reviews the troops. -The new Belgian ministry, the' dis patch adds, will be comprised of six Catholics, three Liberals, and three Socialists, including the leader Edouard Anseele. Premier Ceoreman will re tire. Baron de Broqueville will be minister of the interior and General Janson minister of war. M. Hymans will retain the portfolio of foreign af fairs and Emile Vanderveide will con tinue S3 minister of Justice. SEE ITALY IN WAR Red Cross Minimi Has a Con- i oeption of IU Home, Nov. 21. The special Ameri can Tied Cross mission, appointed to report e conditions in all countries waere the American Red -.Cross is. working, left tor the Balkan states today "after weeks of investigation and study in Italy. The mission expects to be at Nazareth, Palestine, on Christ mas day. Lieut, Col. Homer Folks, chairman 6f the mission, describing his stay in Italyv'said-: "We are leaving Italy with an en tirely new conception of Italy's par ticipation in the great war and the magnitude of the civilian problems ana otner ainicultles that faced her. The measure of a country's military effort must be in some degree reflected by the result and effects upon civilian life. "With her destroyed villages and farms, with a half million refugees scaiierea tnruout the country, with her returning prisoners coming down from Austria thru every mountain pass, with the marked increase in her tuberculosis death rate and inevitable decline in the birth rate, with her many thousands of war orphans and with her extremely complicated food situation, it is not difficult to form an adequate estimate of Italy's part in the struggle against the invader." CHINESE GIVE MUCH Their Fledges to United War Work Are Large. Peking, Nov. 20 When John R. Mott, chairman of the American United War Work campaign sug gested that China's contributions to the fund should be 3100,000 gold, the Peking committee, the president of which is Dr. Paul Samuel Reinsch, American minister to China, advised him 3200.00O silver, almost double the chairman's estimate might be ex pected. Pledges now exceed 31.200, 000 silver, which is virtually twelve times the amount suggested by Mr. Mott. Meetings and parades are creating enthusiasm, and 90 per cent of the contribntif 1. are from Chinese. STORE W SOFT COAL RcSwlnticn Limiting the Amount Are Lifted Today. Washington. Nov. 22.

Propaganda having no basis in fact, is breaking out in some portions of the country to disturb the families of soldiers. Stories of whole units being wiped out in the last days of the war are being circulated,, but like the German lies of other days, these stories find no substantiation, whatever. At To ledo. Ohtp, and Camden. N. J., rumors of units having been wiped out lack verification here today. Chief of Staff March's office said today there war absolutely no support for the stories circulated to the distress of many families in those cities. HAVE GREAT NAVY By July, 1920, Twice the Size in 1914. Admiral Taylor Tells the Sen. ate of Plans. IS CHIEF OF CONSTRUCTION And Figures Do Not Include 300 Sob Chasers. 240 More Destroyers in Xext Eight Months. Washington, Nov. 22.--By July, 1920, the American navy will have more than twice the number of ships it had before the outbreak of the war. Admiral Taylor, chief of naval con struction, told the house naval affairs committee today. This Is exclusive of about 350 wood en submarine chasers, which the navy expects to sell to other governments or to put out of commission. Destroyers represent the backbone of the increase, 'Taylor said. There are now 100 of these in commission and 240 will be added in the next eighteen months, making this country's de stroyer force nearly equal to that of Britain. One new dreadnaught, the Idaho, will be commissioned in about a month, Taylor added. Two more, the Tennessee and California, are rapidly approaching completion and an addi tional two will be done before the summer of 1920. There will be no new scout cruisers until late in 1920. 29 Subs Done. Twenty-nine more submarines will be completed before the middle of 1920, giving this country 35 to 40 more under water craft than in 1916, Tay lor said. Fifty mine sweepers, which will likely be converted into gunboats, 100 Eagle boats and 25 tugs make up the rest of the great increase, revela tion of which today astonished even members of the naval committee who have kept In close touch with naval affairs thruout the war. The strength of- the navy in 1916, Admiral Taylor said, was about 300 ships. By July, 1920. he estimated the number would be something over 700 vessels. Admiral Taylor also brought out that the navy had so many aircraft that It had been forced to store some. This condition, he said, had prevailed for the last six months when the naval air program more than came up to re quirements. Call Off Aviation. For this reason, Admiral Taylor said, aviation contracts had been the fleet ones cancelled, Luc lhe jiaw.v de partment following signing of the art- mistice. Cuba and other small governments have been asked to buy submarine chasers, he said. 1,000 of Craft. The number of craft now in the navy total about one thousand, but large number of these are of the most makeshift character, he added, and will not be retained long. The figures for 1920, however, rep resent a substantial permanent in crease. Admiral Taylor and committee members differed about the strength of England's destroyer force. Taylor said he understood in a vague way that England had between 300 and 400 of these craft. Chairman Padgett said that he has been told in London mai Jiingiana naa tuu. several com mittee members demanded to know why the United States was building so heavily in peace times. TO OPEN UP BOOKS Packers Will Let Food Administration Keep Tab on Them. Washington, Nov. 22. Packing: com panies, whose sales exceed $100,000,000 a year, have agreed to adopt a new, simpllified system of bookkeeping, so that the food administration can keep closer supervision of their profits. Such supervision continues under the federal trade commission despite the signing of the armistice and the consequent relief in the food situation. The new regulations affect Swift, Armour, Morris, Wilson and Cudahy Packing companies. Representatives of these concerns, including L. F. Swift, G. F. Swift. B. A. Cudahy. Ed ward Morris, jr., and T. E. Wilson, attended the conference in Washing ton yesterday. The changes do not affect the per centage of profits the packers are per mitted to make upon food. Certain items of packers products have been transferred to other gov ernment departments. Fertilizer is handled by the department of agricul ture and hides by the war industries board.

TRAINS BLOW UP 1,500 to 2,000 Casualties Are the Result. When Munitions Explode on Belgian Road. London, Nov. 22. An explosion of munition trains in Belgium Thursday caused casualties estimated to be be tween 1.500 ani 2,000. One hund.-ed and fifty dead already have been counted, according to a Central News dispatch from Amsterdam.

Dutch mili tary aid has been sent across the bor der. 1 The trains were standing at the sta tion at Hamont when the explosion occurred and the entire region was soon a sea of fire. Neighboring houses collapsed burying their occu pants. Three German ambulance trains caught fire and one was de stroyed, eighteen of the occupants be ing burned to death. Most of the victims were German soldiers who had been plundering the trains. A few Dutch soldiers also were killed.

The task of the assembly, will be nothing, Jen than, to construct and furnish safeguards for the edifice to be built within the newly created framework." writes PhiliuD Scheidemann, a member of the new government in the Vorwaerts of Ber lin. "It is hoped that the next few weeks will bring a preliminary peace," he continued- "The entente will con clude a final peace only with a con solidated Germany. The foremost task of the assembly therefore will be to safeguard -and give expression to the people's will in order to deprive the entente of all pretext for delay ing a final peace."

A majority of the nation's railroads plan to restore to employes who entered military and naval service the seniority rights which tbey sacrificed when they left the road's employment, according to an order by the United States Railroad administration, made public today.

And Fifty Destroyers Thrown In, Too. Are (By the Associated Press.) Edinburgh. Nov. 21. Germany, as a naval power ceased to exist today. The heart of her mighty fleet four teen ships of the line, seven light cruisers and fifty destroyers surren dered to an armada of English, Amer ican and French vessels, the greatest fighting force that ever stood out to SBThe minutely detailed program of submission laid down by the com mander of the British fleet was carried out strictly according to plan. The German warships, strung out in a sin gle column almost twenty miles long, appeared at the rendezvous at the appointed time, and were led Into the Firth of Forth between twin columns of allied ships which overlapped the Germans at each end. Tonight the enemy craft are anchored in the Firth, under guard as prisoners. Never So Gigantic. A surrender on such a gigantic scale has no precedent in naval history. Al tho the wonderful naval spectacle was the same as a peace time review and evoked little enthusiasm, the hate' blotting out the horizon, American and British office's could scarcely credit the evidence of their eyes. It was an event which shattered all na val traditions and ideals. t Men animated by the spirit of Law rence's "Don't tfive up the ship" and Nelson's "England expects every man to do ms ajty," could not conceive oi such in inglorious fate as that to which the enemy sea force was sub mitting. The Associated Press corre- spondent, standing on the deck of an American dreadnaught, heard an offi cer exclaim: "Even the poor old Spaniards, knowing they had not a Felt Only Pity. i But for the most part both officers and men were- silent. They realised they were witnessing the climacteric a.-t of Germany's downfall. They knew that the surrender of these ves sels automatically raised the United States to second position among the worlds naval powers but they showed; no elation and seemed to feel a sort i contemptuous pity for the fallen giant of the sea who had refused to fight. Their imaginations dwelt on the foe's shame. The German ships were sighted by the allies at 9:20 o'clock, docilely fol lowing their British pilot, the light cruiser Cardiff, which with destroyers and other small craft, had ranged aneaa oi tne allied fleet Well to Comply. The enemy studiously complied with Admiral Beatty's orders and it was well for their own sakes that they did. Every vessel steaming out to meet them flew battle ensigns and was ready for instant action with its men .at battle stations and guns in position for the prompt annihilation o tiie enemy's forces if their mission proved to be other than eaceful. Five American battleships, the New York, Texas. Arkansas, Wyoming and Florida, were prepared to fire every gun in 40 seconds after the signal was given by Rear Admiral Hugh Rodman, who said to the correspond ent before sailing: "There is not the slightest proba bility of any trouble but we are over 1 .oklng no chances against making the wind-up of this show a big suc cess." The main allied fleet, extending over a line fourteen miles long in the Firth of Forth, began to weigh anchor at t o'clock this morning. The Scotch mist, which for days had obscured the harbor, was swept away by a stiff breeze, and the moon shone brilliantly. The ships quickly took their station in the long double line they held thruout the day. British battle cruis ers led the way, followed by dread naughts. Admiral Beatty's flagship, the Queen Elizabeth, led the squad ron in the northern column. The American warships fell into line be hind Admiral Beatty's craft, balancing a British squadron similar in power in the opposite file. The rendezvous was approximately fifty tnlles distant and the ships gauged their speed to arrive at the ap pointed place at 8 o'clock. At t o'clock a signal summoned the men to, battle Btatlons.

Senator Watson, Indiana, Thursday declared the only reason for this action "is the sinister one that is a part of the gen eral policy of government ownership, the opening Boor to a socialist form of government." Watson's speech caused a flury in the senate. "I believe." said Watson,-- "the step was takcii because the president is loath to give up any of the war pow ers conferred on him by congress and his subordinates, especially some of those in the cabinet, are unwilling to relinquish power unless compelled to do so by legislative acts." Watson said it is "singularly sig nificant that the cables were taken on the eve of the president's visit to a foreign country." He added that he had no quarrel with tho president's decision to go abroad, "altho it was not necessary, provided he -had .been willing to con fide in some of his fellow citizens." "Cables Are Cat." "When the president leaves this country the cables are as good as cut," Witcci added, declaring that he took it for granted that nothing said in tho senate would get to Europe and nothing unfavorable to the president get here. "With George Creel controlling ln frmAlion abroad, and with Burleson controlllnR the cables here, the coun try may be wary," Watson said.

"Men do not remake themselves over nleht." he added. "Creel is still Creel, and the chairman of public in formation will be the same journalistic drunkard in the Journalistic wine cellar cellar as he was in Denver and that he has been in Washington."

Make Speeches In France, Italy and England. Washington, Nov. 22. That Presi dent Wilson will participate actively in the campaign against Bolshevism while in Europe, was the intimation of his friends here today. He is expected "to make speeches not only in France but certainly in Italy and probably in England, setting forth the aim of the associated gov ernments to uphold the cause of free peoples and support law and order that the world may rapidly resume its normal course again. The keynote of his proposed effort Is expected to be sounded in a speech or message to the people of this coun try before he sails. Or, it may be covered in his message to congress, outlining what he believes to be the fundamentals of this nation's read justment work. Meantime, behind the glamor of the president's forthcoming trip, the dip lomats of the world are working feverishly to compile their data for the peace conference and determine upon the main propositions which must be cleared away promptly that trade may be resumed and employ ment made available for the-millions who have been under arms or at war work for years. It is pointed out that danger comes with idleness and for that reason dip it anxious to have the prlnci- pal questions of the peace conference disposed oi rapiaiy urn men iu from guns and suspicion to toil and profit. Russia is striving to be represented at the peace conference as a staple nation. Diplomats here see this angle In Ad miral Kolchak'e seizure of the Omsk government, for they believe he is seeking to bring order in Russia, to dodge Bolshevism, to have Russia do her own policing and thus escape long continued, or increased allied-American policing. If he can succeed in getting stability, Russian authorities hold that nation will seek a seat at the table. Prince Lvoff Is consulting with President Wilson and Secretary of State Lansing. Russia wants economic aid and is opposed to increased as sociated policing. Another phase of peace specula tion here among diplomats, concerns the Rhine lands. Diplomats declare ?""ia is willing to sacrifice this ter- ritory to avoid some of the indemnity burden Germany is destined to have. As seen here, this sacrifice would leave her gold free for development pur poses and later the militarists might arouse the old war spirit by making the martyr-like appeal of "lost provinces." HOW THE BOCHE (Continual from Page One.) jn the bridges, the ships' companies were hidden behind bulwarks of steel. When dawn broke, the sea was again j eWered with mist, which reduced the visibility to less than 8,000 yards, v Eyes Strained. J Byes straining thro the murky hare finally were rewarded. Off the star-: Vboard bow the Cardiff, trailing an ob servation kite balloon, came steam ing in. Close behind her came the first of the German ships, the great battle cruiser Seydlitz, which was fly ing the flag ol Commodore Togert. After her came four others of the same type, the Derfflinger, von Der Tann, Hindenburg and Moltke. They moved along three cable lengths apart. Immediately following them were nine dreadnaughts, the Frledrich der Orosse, flagship of Rear Admiral von Reuter, the Koenig Albert, Kaiser, Kron Prins Wilhelm, Kaiserin, Bayern. Markgraf, Frinz Regent Luitpold and the Grosser Kurfuerst. Three miles astern of -the battleships came seven light cruisers, the Karlsruhe, bearing the ensign of Commodore Harder, the Frankfort, Emden, Burnburg, Brum mer. Coin and Bremen. Then the Destroyers. Then came another gap of three miles and German destroyers appeared steaming in five columns abreast with ten destroyers to a columo,.. Six miles separated the allied col umns and squarely between them the Cardiff brought her charges, all steaming at the stipulated speed of ten Knots.- as ordered, tneir runs were in regular fore and aft positions and far as powerful glasses could deter mine, there was no sign to provoke suspicion. Until all the major ships had been swallowed up in the envelop ing allied columns the latter never for a moment relaxed their alert watch. Over the Germans circled a British dirigible, which acted as eyes for the allied ships, which altho the fog had lifted, were still too distant for ac curate observation. A Splendid View. When the leading German ship had reached the western end of the flank ing columns the allied ships put about In squadrons. Quickly reforming their lines, they proceeded to escort the en emy into the Firth of Forth. By noon the last wisp of fog had dispersed and a splendid view of the vast array of war craft could be obtained. Holding steadily to its course, the great fleet reached May Island at 2 o'clock. The captive Germans: were piloted to an chorage assigned to them and British ships from the southern column closed in as guards. The northern column steamed on to the regular anchorages higher up the Firth. Interned in Sen pa Flow. Inspection parties from the grand fleet boarded the Germans to make sure that ajl conditions of the armi stice were observed. The enemy ves sels will be interned in Scapa Flow. Part of the crews will remain for maintenance work and the remainder will be returned to Germany soon. Whether American ships have a fur ther part to play in connection witn this internment and guarding the hlgli seas, is a question which is being dis cussed by officers and men of the United States squadron. King Visits tr. S. Ship. King George's visit to the American flagship New York Wednesday was a ntaoie occasion tnruout. British de stroyers were streaming out of the harbor to take up advanced positions to act as a screen for the Grand Fleet toda and the portentousness of their mission gave a note of solemnity to th- gala -scene on the New York. As soon as the royal party stepped aboard the royal ensign was hoisted to the masthead. King George, the nrince of Wales. Admiral Beatty and other membe -s of the visiting party were received by Admirals Roiman and Sims and -other officers of the fleet. During his call King George voiced the 'brotherly feelings of the two navies, with a suggestion that arrangements r.iight well be made for joint maneuvers every year by the American and British fleets. His proposal was quickly and heartily seconded by the American officers. As the king entered the royal barge, the order came from the officer on the bridge to the sailors and marines "Three cheers for the king of Eng--land." -t' Cheers were given with such a will that they brought ah answering cheer from the men on the distant ships of the American squadron.

CALLS IT BOLSHEVISM Mackay Says Burleson Diverts Postal Telegraph Earnings. New York, Nov. 22. Denouncing as high handed Bolshevism. Post master General Burleson's action in awarding the Postal Telegraph-Cable company $1,680,000 a year for use of lis lines by the governi.ient, Clarence H. Mackay, president of the company, issueo. a stacsment nere threatening court action. He declared the com. pansatlon award insufficient. The statement follows: We are Just advised by Postmaster General Burleson that he has awarded the Postal Telegraph-Cable company $1,680,000 per -annum as compensa tion for the use of its lines, despite the fact that the profit from those lines in 117 was $4,269,006. Ti ere fore, Postmaster General Burleson takes from the Postal company $2, 588,000, which he, to all intents and purposes, pays over to the Western Union Telegraph company because under the compensation he is paying that company he is losing at least $2 300,000 per annum and considerably more and this he does not deny. The profit of Postmaster General Burleson from the lines of the Postal Telegraph-Cable company. Jor the month of August, 1918 (the first of government control), was $230,000.

Washington, Nov. 22. That the war department will keep hands off in the matter of universal military training unless asked specifically for Its views, was the opinion in general staff quar ters today. Indications are that the president directly, or thru Secretary of War Baker, must sponsor, the idea, else congress will have to ask the war de partment for its suggestions. It was said that Indications now are that the military men themselves would not at tempt to urge such training unless asked to do so by the president, sec retary of war, or congress. Staff officers profess to be in Ignor ance of what policy the administration will offer. The general staff has made a study of the subject and is ready to present very, definite proposals if these are aestred. Baker May Touch It. It is possible that Secretary Baker's annual report, soon forthcoming, will give an Indication of the administra tion's attitude toward this subject. In his last message Baker side-tracked the problem because of the war sit uation. Since then, it has been gossiped that the president was in favor of a modified plan of universal training which would not convert America in to an armed camp, but which would give an adequate measure of prepareu ness. I Chief of Staff March will be called before the military committee when the military measure comes up. But men close to him indicated that he probably would not give any sugges tions as to universal training, unless the committee specifically sought his ideas. In that case, he will be ready with conerete measures. Thus far, there is little in the way of public sentiment to guide either ad ministration officials or military men. The suddenness of readjustment prob lems has eclipsed this particular prob lem of the future. While the military men believe the nation should main tain such a system as a safeguard, much will depend upon the demands made of the league of nations for po lice protection. The question of how large a stand ing army shall be maintained is likely to crystallize soon. Thus far, however, both Secretary Baker and Chief of Staff March have declined to give any guidance as to their position toward either this question or the training matter. N0W FIGHT HUNGER America Has Vanquished Hun Now a New Enemy. Chicago, Nov. 22. "We have fought the Hun: we must now fight hunger." Mrs. Beatrice Forbes-Robertson Hale told the United Press today. Mrs. Hale is a. special representative of the united states food administration. "Ten -million Russians are already doomed to die of starvation this wln .ter. Other countries of Europe will, thru lack of food and transportation .facilities, suffer proportionately. Con servation and shipment of food are our two great national duties now. "Starvation is America's greatest present opponent in Europe." Another, duty of the reconstruction ;period was outlined by Harry A. Wheeler, president of the United States Chamber of Commerce. This duty, he said, is the restora tion of war torn business to normal. "American business, guided by honesty and pure purpose, will soon find its way back," Wheeler said. "We can make the return to normal easier by simplifying the plan wher ever possible. Reconstruction pre sents many problems, but the men of America who aided their government in the biggest job in history will meet new problems with renewed vigor. At no period has there- been a greater need for enlightened selfishness of the sort which builds industry." NAMES HEAD OP SENATE. King of Italy Appoints Count Bonasl to the. Place. Rome, Nov.- S 2.

ALL TO GET JOBS jj PELLETIER'S "T" U'"lr I McCair Pattern! j sr,c 'o-cik 1 Muming Underwekr ck SofjooT j- PELLETIER'S ii 1 1 1 T Kansas 'Will Be Able to Take Care of Soldiers. Plenty of Work for Them, J. Will Kelley Says. OLD PUCES HELD FOR MANY Resumption of Industrial Work Will Ttake Surplus. More Than 7,000 Could i Used at Present Time. Be Judging from a report sent to the government on November 20 from the Office of J. Will Kelley, federal di rector of the United States employ ment service. Kansas is very favor ably situate 1 for the d sP03"'0.".0' retiming soldiers and sailors and also the men who have been engaged in government war industries. The industrial survey lnd cates that the state Is rapidly assuming a normal aspect.. The report from WichlVa :s fndicative of the thruout the entire state. At that place reports from various large in dustries show the present number of employes, the number nrw In the ari.iy or navy service, and the num ber that will be needed. Almost very firm that has so far reported has agreed 1 to take care of the men for merly In their employ and have fur ther Wild that they will do lth" discontinuing the service of the men In their service at present. Laborers Needed Now. At present the needs of the state are for 6000 common laborers, 1000 killed laborers in various trades, loot) office and store men, 000 railway track laborers and several hundred coal miners. It is felt that much o( this work wll be held for the employ of returning soldiers and sailors and men who have been released from other war Industries. Plans are being formulated whicn will call for help in oil pipe line work, and other work in the oil fields around Independence, and in municipal ana industrial lines. If men are returned gradually thruout the next few months, according to AJ A. Knapp. assistant federal director, there is no doubt but that they can be handled and that work can be found for them If they want to go to work. Many Change Work. It will not be possible, however, to find for every man the particular sort of work or Job that he may be looking for. Doubtlessly many men will change, or will desire to change to another kind of work from the one which was followed prior to entry into military service. It Is expected that the long periods for which many thou sands of men have lived practically out of doors, will influence them to try to obtain work that will keep them outside. The problem of handling the Im mense numbers of men at cities like Nitro, which practically sprang up over night, is a thing that has not been worked out. But houses 'have been constructed at these places to care for the men and their families and the plants are large and equipped with machinery which mipht be converted to other lines of industry which could continue to be followed for some time to come. Nothing definite has. been, developed alonff this line but the use of these plants for some such work Is considered as amongst the posslbill- daksthe itramc.

In the average American restaurant today a man must play a mean trick on his appetite, says the Thrift Maga zine, If he expects to have much left out of a dollar after maintaining con tact with a full meal. Statistics show that there are 9,000,000 persons who subsist In American restaurants from day to day. Among this vast army of bacon and egg experts there are many, no doubt, who would be glad to see the daily menu card speak in more conciliatory accents on the sub ject of hash and other luxuries. Things are done differently abroad. It is re ported that the national restaurant of London which was established to ex pose the profiteers shows a profit of $350 a week or about 78 per cent on the Investment. Lunches and suppers are sold for 25 cents and tea and, breakfast for 15 cents. There is a profit of about 2 cents on each meal. The co-operative, restaurant idea also has taken root )n parts; where ten publicly controlled restaurants, each seating 1.000 persona, are selling good meals for about 80 cents each. Chicago has been added to the long list of' cities -where the street railway companies have been granted permis sion to advance the price of fares. The increase Is but one cent, but it will help, topeka still Is lagging be hind the procession. A population that has given so-liberally to every call for money to help in the war, doubt- less is willing to see Justice done In the case of the street car company. Why the delay? ..Three years ago the steamer East land sank at her dock in Chicago car rying down to death 812 persons. In vestigation proved that the accident was due to the incapacity of federal steamboat inspectors. It Is an estab lished principle that the government Is-not responsible for the acts of its aaents, hence the only course of the relatives of the unfortunate victims of the disaster was to sue the owners of the boat. The claims have been carried to the supreme court and a de cision has been handed down under which the claimants lose their fight for damages. Doubtless the matter has been settled strictly In accordance with the Taw, but If the accident had occurred on a railroad, owing to the faulty inspection of rolling stock, mil lions of dollars In damages would have been demanded and paid. If more responsibility attached to the govern ment on account of Its officers charged with the security of life and limb there might be more hesitation in appoint ing to such places political henchmen entirely lacking in qualifications. "Nothing is so foolish as the remark of an Individual who when the news papers flndhlm out and camp on his departing suitcase says: "The news papers have It In for me," writes John D. Wells in the Buffalo News. If the average :r.an, being heckled thru the headlines, he continues, knew how little he counts within the office he would hide his head with humiliation. The reporter is apt to forget him over night and the proofreidtr more than likely to misspell his l.ame at any tluie. It :sn't the Individ, al a news paper is after; it's the system that makes tne Individual. What shall be done with Turkey and the Turks promises to become an in teresting problem for solution at the peace conference. The Turks have for five hundred yjars shown their im cdmpetency to rule subject peoples and their unrestrained barbarity has been fully demonstrated. The first grand essential in the redemption of Turkey is a just, strong government organized and administered at Con stantinople either by an international cemmlssion or by some great civilized ower. welch hatt shown its ability to govern humanely and effectively. It ehould be a government by the peo-j pie, of the people, and for the people, j Should the United States, says a writer In the Review of Reviews, be asked to undertake this task, she ought not to refuse. Neither the warnings of. Washington concerning foreign al liances, norvthe restraints of tha Mon roe doctrine would properly- stand In the way of such a humanitarian work. Every Turk, Armenian, Syrian, Jew, and Greek would then have an equal chance for security and happiness. FROM WAR TO PEACE. Now iS' the time when the federal government should treat with the greatest consideration its business en terprises. The change from a war to a peace footing will require the expen diture of much capital. Those con cerns that will lose prospective con tracts with the government will suf fer financially altho probably they will be reimbursed to lome extent when their contracts are taken from them. The facility with which the country adjusts itself to the activities of peace "wilt measure our success in the inevitable competition in the world's markets with other nations. It would be a grave mistake to im pose upon our industries unnecessary tax burdens while they are undergoing this transformation. It Is impossible to form, at this time, even an approximate estimate of the huge saving to the government that will result from the stoppage of our war activities. But with all allow ances for maintaining the government as a going concern, billions or aouars remain, appropriated for waging the war on a mora Intensive basis In 1919, the expenditure of which will not now be necessary.-.- in fixing the amounts In the more Teoent appropriation bills congress, had In mind the creation of an army Of 6,000,000 men, with all the equipment that goes with such a force. Such an enlargement of our military strength Is now unnecessary. Hous ing projects, involving tens of millions of dollars, should be abandoned. Ex tensions to ordnance plants, additions to existing cantonments, the intensive manufacture of aircraft, the construc tion of heavy ordnance, for all of which billions have been appropriated during the year, will be halted,, and the money will remain in the treasury. Last month the chairman of ap propriations committee of the senate submitted a summary of the appro priations for the present session, which began on December S, 1917. Since-that date there- has been appro priated approximately $26,877,000,000 and additional contracts have been authorized to the extent of $9,421,000, 000 to be covered by appropriations at a later date, or a total of $28,298,000,-. 000. Of course much of -that huge sum represents expenditures) that can not be avoided with the eoming of peace. The shipping board will re quire hundreds of millions to finish the work it has in hand; pay and maintenance of the army must con tinue until it Is- demobilized; the im mensely enlarged government estab lishment at Washington and in other cities must be maintained, at 'least for the present; interest on the public debt must be paid; and other huge ap propriations for more or less perman ent purposes must be left undisturbed. But the Imminence of final peace will mean the cancellation of thou sands of army contracts and the ces sation of military work in general on which it was Intended to spend hun dreds of millions of dollars. As a consequence the demands upon the treasury in the ensuing year will fall far short of the estimates, and the revenue legislation must be revised accordingly. It is rumored that when the revenue bill is taken up again for consideration in the senate committee no special haste will be observed in completing it. Two and a half years ago the Dut- tons of New York published "The Ger man Republic," written by Walter Wellman, the well known journalist. In the form of an allegory, or history written In anticipation of events, it forecast the' end of the war thru an armistice, a political revolution in Germany, the abdication of the kaiser. the setting up of a republican form of government, and the reorganization of the world with a league of nations. general disarmament, international tribunals for settling disputes, perma nent peace, a new era for the whole race. The book naturally attracted much attention, but few were able to put faith in the author's remarkable forward look. He was generally set down as a dreamer, a visionary, TJtopiah to the last degree. Now he is being showered with praise for having produced a great prophetic book of the war. President Wilson would further en dear himself to the hearts of the American people if he would take Burleson to Europe with him. The postmaster general might get lost over there. A call is out for 10,000 Y. M. C. A. workers to go to Europe. Here Is a chance for those drafted men and others who failed to get across. In the matter of getting the boys out of the trenches Pershing showed the world a trick worth two of Henry Ford's. Kansas has not been blessed with so favorable an 'autumn for growing wheat since 1913. It there shall be no Intervening misfortune next year's yield should surpass all previous rec ords. V TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL INFORMATION BUREAU" FREDERIC 3. HASKIM, Director, Washington. D. C A WOMAX AND HER MONEY. Washington, D. C, Nov. 19. There is a young woman supporting herself on a salary of $1,400 a year in one of the government departments here who. a few months ago, enjoyed an income of $5,000 a year without working. Her sudden jifmp from the leisure crass to that of the workers does not seem to have depressed her; she makes ne wall and blames only her self. But she does Want other women to hear her story, and take to heart the moral thereof: which is that a woman and her money are often soon parted for the simple reason that women either scorn or neglect to learn anything about business. That is not a new idea. A recent notorious murder case brought to light some of the methods by which wealthy women are legally robbed. But the point is that they go right on being robbed. Thousands of them today are at the mercy of lawyers and other agents to whom they have trustingly given full power over their wealth. Take the case of this girl, who will be called Jane. She wanted to go to France and do relief work. She called on the head of the business firm that handled her affairs the day before she left. "I wouldn't, know anything more about bonds and mortgages over here than over there," she told him. "My signatures? Oh, to be sure! But isn't there a power of attorney or some thins that would take care of that. Three years later she was caring for eight little refugees and had near ly succeeded in losing her American accent. One afternoon she went back to her pension to find her mother in tears and a neat legal document on the table which informed her in cor dial business terms that certain in vestments had turned out badly and that she had no more money. This is Jane's story, as she tr'.d it the other day, sitting before a highly polished oak desk in one of the new war buildings here. Her good looks are of the sturdy type; it was difficult to place her in the role of the senti mental, trustful heroine who per mitted an unscrupulous business man" to divest her of her worldly goods. "I want you to write my story," said Jane determinedly, "and make me look Just as uilly as possible. I was supposed to be a Well educated Amer ican girl. -Yet I had simply turned my $5,000 a year over to a man out of sheer stupidity. I do not even claim that it was a -misplaced trust. There was no reason why I should have trusted the man particularly. I simp ly did not realize what I was doing when I signed that power of attorney. "Since this has happened to me I have heard of many other women who have lost their fortunes thru the same sort of business ignoaance. A friend of mine who is a Wall street broker can tell you of hundreds of such cases. Mrs. Hopkins of the government em ployment bureau here, who got me this Job, can tell you of'many more. I think that a business education for women should be compulsory, and that no man- should leave his estate in the hands of a woman who cannot manage it. The feminine attitude of trustful ignorance may be very ro mantic, but this is not a romantic world. If women are ever to achieve economic equality with men, it will be thru the assiduous cultivation of business sense." An interview with Mrs. Grace Porter Hopkins, chairman of the gov ernment employment service here in Washington revealed that she had the same viewpoint. Mrs. Hopkins has not only been at the head of this service for the past three years, but she has started several other govern ment employment bureaus in other cities. She has found Jobs for thou-

sands of women, and about every type km t,. hr,i her office. of human has passed, thru her office. To use Mrs. Hopkins's own words, her business is "to find round pegs for round holes." "Sometimes," she says, "it takes only a little whittling to make the peg fit; sometimes it requires an axe." I'The value of business training for women," says. Mrs. Hopkins, "cannot he overestimated." "Life is a. business in which every human beinsr has his value, but he should know what that value is. It is this knowledge which women lack. We have women con stantly coming in .here who demand salaries of $1,400 a year as their natural right when they actually are not worth $500. There are just as many, on the other hand, who under estimate their abilities and get put in the wrong places." Mrs. Hopkins is a strong adherent of that venerable and much esteemed institution the home. The home, sh believes, is the foundation of the na tion. But she also believes that in order to run the home efficiently and get the most out of it, a woman should have business training and, if possible, business experience. A woman must prove her efficiency before she Is per mittel to buy goods for a department store, but any untrained, inexperi enced woman is supposed to have the ability to buy goods for her family. Women still shrug at the-word "sys tem," and the majority of American homes still lack a budget system. It is this indifference to the principles of business which makes a woman such an easy prey for the unscrupu lous. Not long agov a middle-aged woman drifted into Mrs. Hopkins's office In search of a Job. She was well-dressed but in the couise of the interview she explained that the clothes she had on were the only ones she had. She had pawned everything else, and she was now penniless. Yet in her youth this woman had been a wealthy belle whose social activities and photographs had been featured in at least three large cities. "I have never understood the value of money." she told Mrs. Hop kins. "If I had, I should not be in this condition." "Yes," Mrs. Hopkins agreed. "Peo ple have usually got to earn money before they learn to appreciate Its value." Now, at the age of fifty-three, this woman Is for the first time earning her living. The government employ ment service has" placed her as chap eron at a ladies' seminary. Another middle-aged woman, who recently lost a fat income thru her inability to resist the temptation of doubline; it thru the magic of Wall street, is now working as a seamstress for the younar war workers of Wash ington, By darning the stockings and mendiner the clothes of these young eirls, this woman is able to fulfill a very arreat need and at the same time earn a substantial salary. But if this discipline could onlv have come in the early part of her life, she undoubtedly would have kept the money she squan dered on bogus stock. The government employment serv i ice in Washington has placed nearly twenty thousand women in remunera tive positions in the past six months. (They have ranged all the way from I dish-washers to near-diplomats. Many were nlaceri in munition factories; thousands have been absorbed into the government war machinery as effi ciency experts stenographers, typists, telegraphers, clerks, adding machine operators, domestic scienee experts, trained nurses and draftswomen. The employment opportunities af forded women by the war will be of lasting benefit not only to the sex but to the nation, in the opinion of Mrs. Hopkins. They have given thousands of women much-needed business ex perience, and they have changed the feminine attitude toward systematic work. Women no longer boast of their uselessness. They are no longer ashamed to confess that they are in telligent, able-bodied citizens, quite capable of earning their own livlflfe.

A young woman of my acquaintance married a worthy young nun about three years ago,,' The husband Is very well to do, very generous and. very much in love with his wife.- He has given her a beautiful home; aatl every luxury and is kindness itselff bat the wife has decided that she doesn't love him, and she wants to leave him and take their baby with her, The husband refuses to let her go. Wherein he is making a great mistake, in my opinion. He should let her go and find out for herself what the life she longs for so ardently is like what it means to a woman, who has had a fine home, to live in a hall bedroom and a cheap -boarding house, and who has had" a strong man to stand be tween her and the world to know that she has only her own weak hands with one iioa umy ner own wean, nanus win io.j,f wnich to "Sht the wolf away from the door. For surely a woman, who broke her wedding vows for no better reason than that she had ceased to consider her husband a figure of romance, would not expect him .to go on sup porting such a quitter as she had snown herself to be. It would do a lot of women who are ungrateful, unappreciative. and dis gruntled, good to be thrown on their own resources for a hile. and md out by actual experience what poor incompetent creatures they are, how utterly unable they are to hold their own in the fierce battle for bread, and wnat a sort jod they had as wives, They are so used to being thought for. to being protected, to having their wants supplied by their husbands that tney lane it as a matter of course, without thanks, and they need a good hard Jolt to wake them nn.

Miss Copeland paused on her way down the dusky corridor and listened there was no doubt in her mind that her suspicions of the past week were well foupded. Thirteen years of city life most of it spent in the boarding house which had been her only home had not hardened nor driven away the deep, maternal tenderness which had gone out to many a waif who had drifted into the house. She knew that in that room a girl was -crying weeping in the low, sub dued, silent way that is ever significant of a breaking or homesick heart. She went on to the door of her room, and then paused again. She remem bered the shy, refined, girlish woman, who with her young husband had come to the room early in the week. Something was wrong, greatly wrong; and quietly Miss Copeland turned back, ready to meet the insolent word, the dumb, impassive face of one who welcomes no kindly interference. She knocked softly, but heard no answer: then she- opened the door. She saw the slight form of a. girl stretched on the bed, her dark hair in disarray, her eyes covered with slim hands, her shoulders heaving. "My dear, may I help you in some way?" Miss Copeland asked gently. "I am simply an old maid living in the house when I am not a business woman. I wish I could help you," the older woman said, a bit eagerly, for the beauty of the girl, her evident re finement, and her grief, appealed to tier. "Thank you but you cannot help me, I am afraid and I must be brave." The girl sat up suddenly, brushing her dark hair into place. But when Norman ne is my hus band is away, I have my blues out. He is trying so hard, and father has been so soterribly unkindl"' Miss Copeland spoke hastily. "Now suppose you tell me about it. I am in charge of a number of girls in a great omce almost a mother coniessor. Bee If I can't help in some way, will you?" The dark eyes were wistfuL "I have ne mother I can remember and I have wanted one so much to talk to!" "Then make believe I am your mother; you see, I am an old maid but I love children. You see I have suffered a little. I understand. So tell me. My name is Delia Copeland." The girl clasped her hands tensely for a mome-t, then the tight fingers relc-:ed. "It's simple it seems so, anyway. You see Norman and I learned to to love each other. Father was angry. You see Norman worked j.n one of father's mills. He said I Was too young --I know I am, but we loved each other, and the years don't count, do they?" "No, my dear. Love knows no years," Miss Copeland answered faintly. "I told father I would have more years to be happy with Norman. But he he was stern, and harsh, and un kind. Then we learned he was plan ning to sena Gorman away to South Africa. We we simply couldn't stand that. I wanted Norman to marry me, right away; he wouldn't without fath er's consent, but father wouldn't ven see him. Then he told me he was going to send me away. I told him I would not go" the dark eyes began to gleam, and the listener guessed that the father's spirit was In his child "that I would marry Norman. He told me I did not dare. I did." The girl looked wearily-toward the window. She went on, a "bit more quietly: "We were married. Father had Norman discharged. He refused to See me. I did not beg, nor shall I, tho I know he loves me. The worst is, everywhere Norman goes for work in his special line father's influence stops him from securing it. Norman oh, he has been so brave, so kind and so uncomplaining. He is trained in one kind of work, but he's trying to do what he can and it's hard now." "Have you asked your father to for give you?" Miss Copeland asked, hesitatingly. The girl's slfght form stiffened and tho watcher saw the pride of race stern on her features. "Never! I shall never do that! He must ask us to re turn!" Miss Copeland pondered a minute, her hopes gaining as she thought. "Will you tell me your name?" she queried. "Why, I should have told you. I'm proud of It, Mira Copeland Mrs. Nor man Barker. My own name is Laurel Jeffery father owns the Wellston Mills." A long silence fell between them. It was broken by eteps that, approaching slowly, quickened as they neared the door. In came a tall, good-looking young man, whose gray eyes could not brighten the shadows beneath them. He was introduced to Miss Copeland by a proud wife. Taking advantage of her first opportunity. Miss Copeland slipped out and hurried to her own room. There she stood in Its silence and dusk, thinking. Finally she reached a decision. "It is very foolish, very, very: but I shall go and see her father. Those brave, courageous young hearts must not suffer." With her decision made, she sat in the dusk near the window of her room, dreaming dreaming of a lost girlhood, an empty womanhood, and brooding on- the gray and quiet years that lay before her lonely paths for the walking of lonely feet. e The maid at the door softened her voice. "Mr. Jeffery says that you must give jour name and state your errand, please." Miss Copeland smiled. "Tell him I have come over two hundred miles for five minutes of his time." The maid hesitated, but went in. A moment later she returned smiling. "He is in the library, where you may See him." Thru the great hall she walked to the door where the maid stood and quietly entered the room. A man of powerful buil j rose heav ily from a chair, laid down his paper and lifted a strong, stern face. With lips parted he stood as if hypnotized, his gray eyes staring: then the harsh lines seemed swept from his face, a sudden overwhelming wonder and Joy took their place. He stepped forward with outstretched hands. "Delia! Delia! It is you it is you oh "Yes. Stephen, It is I but you must not hold my hand," she said, smiling faintly. "I shall hold it until I am sure I have you here! Delia, v-heie ha-e you been? Why have you come?- Do you remember- "Stephen, are you so glad to see me?" "Glad to see you! I have been hun gry for the eight of your face for fif teen years! Why didn't you answer my tetters? Why He stopped, making an effort to calm, himself. "Let's ait down she suggested quietly. "Ah, Stephen, why bring lack j the old years and tne oia regrets i.; was willing to marry you, you remem- j bera but you didn't have the courage 1 to go against your father's will. You i remember, ne wouia nave noimng 10 do with me, you His voice was hoarse: "My God! If I. only had had the courage! These years Delia, these t.art years of mem ories His head dropped. "I Was a coward but it's not too late, Delia. You why, the years have been kind to you are you "Married? No!" She shook her head sadly. "I couldn't with my mem ories." "Delia!" "Walt. Stephen. I came to see you. You say you wish you had opposed your father. Let me tell you some thing She leaned over, and tenderly she told him of the young couple in the dingy boarding house room, of the slight, brave young girl, of the young husband covering a drea l of the fu ture with a present smile. Then she told him their names. He started to his feet. "My little girl there! I wanted to teach them a lesson 1 forgot my lesson. I was a coward and myUod, I have paid for it." He turned to her. "I am going to put a call straight to your house where is it?" Her heart throbbed at his words. "Stephen, they will be wild with Joy!" She gave him the call as she imagined the scene to be enacted in that far away room of despair. He shouted the call into the tele phone, brushing aside some remon strance with an abrupt word. He clung to the receiver while he waited a picture of eagerness. Then "Hello! Laurel" "Father" "Yes, Father" "I want you to come home! You and and Norman!" "There there there little girl!" "Yes, pack up, and come"- "I've been a pig-headed ass" "Yes, you bet we will" "Come right awr.y!" He turned from the telephone. His eyes were quiet, his face calm. She thought as she watched him that the years had been kind, indeed, to him. She rose, feeling as if Into her heart had entered again the silence and the emptiness, while soon for him the last shadows would pass. "Now, I must He sprang up and laid his hands gently yet firmly upon her shoulders. His voice was vibrant, yet tender. "You are never going never, Delia, if I can keep you-. Now that chance has brought you, no gods live who can take you from me. I was too much of a coward once to take you, and you had too much pride to come to me; but, my dear, we simply must save something out of the years they must not all be lost years. Don't you love me even a little?" Her head sank. "Stephen, I have always loved you and always shall) but" very softly and very quietly "youth is past and the dreams of youth." Putting his arm about her, he drew her to him. "I know, oh, I, know, my-1 dear, but youth is not all." His voice was shaking. "The springtime and summer have gone but the Indian summer let's enjoy it together!" She looked up with tears in het eyes. "Yes, I forgot there is Indian summer Stephen Stephen!"

For November 24, is "Jacob Wins Esau," Gen. 33: 1-11. When Enemies Arc Reconciled. Almost weekly the strange oppor tuneness and pertinency. of these Lessons to our times is remarked. It is a striking providence but puts into the hands of twenty million Sunday School members in the United States and Canada these Bible teachings, which apply so closely to the peculiar conditions of. our own day. There is a reason. lp this new ra of dembcr racy, when the convinced mines of the people are the decisive force in all public events, it is essential that there be clear and available principles and Illustrations drawn from the in spired word of God, which our people as a whole accept as their, supreme law. Fronting the prospect of world wide peace and reorganization, we have the old story of the reconcilia tion of the two sons of Isaac, who had been in deadly enmity. One had grossly and foully wronged the other, Jacob had sown bitterness in Esau's heart, ana naa reaped it in his own. By guile he had wronged his brother. and by guile he had in turn been wronged by another. Men usually perish by the same sort of sword they take up. After years exile, Jacob cried peace to Esau, offering Indemni ties or propitiatory gifts, and his brother magnanimously answered him. We shall find a word for the world in the old tale. Business and Matrimony. Himself the world's most famous business man, and the progenitor of the most eminent business race, Ja cob's story is a mixture of trickery, failure and success. He had fled from Beersheba; down on the lower border of Palestine, to Haran, in upper Mesopotamia, where dwelt his Uncle Laban. There he had fallen in love with his cousin Rachel, and had made a deal with her father that he should receive her in marriage, he, in return, giving seven years of unpaid service to iiis mother's brother. The pro posed nuptials were celebrated by a carouse, and Jacob woke up in the morning to find himself the husband of Rachel's older sister, Leah, the sore eyed. There was a rude poetic justice in this substitution.- It was so character istically a Jacob sort of trick. He was being paid back in his own coin. La- ban was kin to Jacob on the maternal side; they were, two of a kind. Jacob was burdened with a wife he did not want, his beloved's unmarriageable elder sister, and obliged to give seven more of servitude for Rachel. Here we find the first noble quality In Jacob. He really loved Rachel, with sincere and disinterested and un extinguishable affection. It was in truth the divine passion. Romance cherishes the passage in Jacob's rec ord which declares, "And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed Unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her." Consistently, this fine passion for the woman whom he had 'first met as a beautiful maiden by the well-side, shines thru Jacob's life. His devotion to Joseph and Ben jamin was because they were the chil dren of the bride of his heart. No man can be wholly bad, or entirely alien from the 6 od whose other name is love, who Is capable of such beauti ful and constant affection. Of course It was a polygamous household, after the general fashion of the time. In addition to his two wives, Jacob had two concubines, and these four were the mothers of his twelve sons and One daughter. In the narrative we have glimpses of the heart-burnings and jealousies which exist under the system of plural mar riages. After serving fourteen years for his two wives. .Jacob made a profit-shar-ir.g arrangement with his uncle father-in-law, whereby he toiled six years more. In this bargain. Jacob un scrupulously got the advantage of his senior partner. He was the sort of business man who would sell shoddy for wool, and whose devious ways have been followed by not a few men since. At the end of the pei-iad, Laban had most of the experience and Jacob most of the business. Between Two Enemies. When things got too hot for Jacob in Haran he started off, secretly, with his wives and children and possessions for Canaan. It was flight from the uncle whom he had wronged, toward the brother whom he had defrauded. There is no smooth and open road anywhere in front of the dishonest men. Nobody should envy the wrong doer. He has paid too high for his ill-gotten gains. There occurs to me the instance of a present-day Jacob, a professedly pious business man, who is ambitious to stand high in this city as a public man. But his pri-ate practices in business follow him everywhere,, and have already laid him low, so far as civic preferment is concerned. I have heard him called "a crook" in so many circles and by so many men whose favor he covets, tiiat if he knew all he would straight way enter upon a course of restitution, even tho it led to poverty. The Jacob kind of business simply does not pay. "There's a way that seemeth right unto men, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Hampered by his household and his flocks, Jacob was soon overtaken by Laban in the mountains east of the Jordan. In a dream, on the seventh night Laban was warned of God to let his son-in-law alone. So, after mutual recriminations, they made a treaty of peace by setting up a bound ary stone, beyond which neither would pass in pursuit of the other. They called it "Mizpah," meaning "Jehovah watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from an other." "MJzpah" Is now a watch word of the Christian Endeavor so cieties; and they close their services with it, most of tlje members being quite unaware that, far from being a tender and fraternal benediction between friends, it bears quite the opposite meaning. Neither Laban nor Jacob trusted the other, and by this stone each called upon Jehovah to keep an eye upon the other. With Laban disposed of, Jacob had now to look forward to Esau, whose wrath he rightly feared. Pity the flight of a timorous man! The pro cedure followed by Jacob represents the diplomacy of the East. He sent propitiatory messengers to Esau, and got back the word that his brother was on the way with four hundred men! Horror upon horrors! Was ever a child of Abraham in such fear? Resourceful, as usual. Jacob divided his family and goods Into two parts that one at least might escape. Then he betook himself to prayer. It was a "noble prayer, registering the ad vance that this man or the troubled career had made in religious experi ence. It pleaded the promises, and confessed his own unworthiness, and told the Lord Just what deliverance Jacob sought, and adduced the unsel fish and spacious reasons tuerejor.'? Then to faith, Jacob added works. H sent forward in rUne separate and u oeaalve Installments a royal gift ef i. hi. hMthfr. The bearers of each portion were carefully coacnea as to what they should say to Esau. until the brother's wratn snoum w peased by presents and good will, fol lowing this measure, Jacob sent his company over the Jabbokv while he himself remained behind in agony of soul. When Jacob Wrestled. Then came the night of nights, the climax of this crowded career, It was a tragic time. Peril of death 'awaited on the morrow. Jacob knew that he had merited the worst that his brother coula do to him. To appease Esau's wrath he had offefed up his pride and his goods. Even of his family's safety he despaired. Now, alone in the dark ness by the stream, he faoed the crisis of his life. His entire previous Seals of values had been discredited. HIS own pride was humbled. Jacob was a chastened, affrighted man, eager for peace with his fellowman and with God. Then befell the strange experience, of the night of wrestling, which is s vivid picture of the seasons of soul-' struggle that all know who havs greatly lived. It was Jacob's Geth semane, the garden where he learned to say "Not my will, but Thine:" for it was when he ceased to struggle that he prevailed with God. In golden yontb, when seems the earth. A summer land for singing mirth; When souls are glad aud hearts are llgnf And not a shadow lurks In sight. We do not know It, but there lies Somewhere, veiled under evening skits.

The Reconciliation. When men have won with God, Hs makes it easy for them to win with, other men. Jacob had spent a night of reconciliation with Jehovah, the turning point in his career, wherein his nature was changed. vSo he was ready on the morrow to meet Esau. Penitence was matched by magna nimity. The transformed Jacob was met by chivalrous Esau. The meeting that might have been strife and con tinuation of bitterness, proved to be a brotherly reunion, eacH trying to out do the other in generosity. Peace, per manent peace, followed the reconcilia tion, because at least one of the parties thereto had been having a profound transaction with God. What says the story to us? Many things, some of which have been im plied in the telling. After world strife there must be world peace. This earth Is too small to contain enmities.. which, the great war has engendered. If Ja cob is penitent, and offers restitution, or indemnity, then Esau must be mag nanimous. We are called upon to rise to new heights of spiritual greatness. While Justice must precede mercy, yet after justice let there be generosity. All of us. In humility and in a full sense of our own undeserving, are called upon to seek to know and fol low the further will of God; and those who are convinced that they have been doing His work in maintaining right ousness, should be foremost In estab lishing peace with good will for no other kind of peace will prevail. HEART AND BEAUTY PROBLEMS BY UBS. KLIZABETB THOMPSON. Dear Mrsf Thompson: Before the United States entered the war I was keeping company with a man who works where I do. I went places with him often, but I did not love him. He was one of the first drafted and so he made a great impression on me in his uniform. 1 thought that I loved him, but now I am convinced that I was only fascinated by the uniform. I have met another man whom I love dearly and he has asked me to. marry him. I cannot do so while I am engaged to the soldier. What shall I do? Shall I write to him and ask hint to release me? BRUNETTE. Since you have dlscoverd that you have made a mistkae. It will be be&t for you to rectify it at once.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, NTOVn-iviBKR 22, 1918 RAISE IS SMALL Increase in Express Rates Here to Average Fire Cents. to the express companies, according to McAdoo's order. As it would not be at all fair to ask western people to pay for the accom modation of eastern people, the rates have been raised highest in the ter ritory where the biggest loss has ac crued. Figuring on an average of 35,000 pieces shipped from Topeka at an added cost of 5 cents per piece, says Brayman, additional revenue amount ing to $1,750 will be taken in. Prac tically all of this will be used in pay ing the increase in salaries. Mrs. Ellen Rvaa Jolly, of Pawtui-ket, It. I., la the first woman to receive tin. GREEK VS. GREEK Pittsburgh U. and Georgia Tech Meet for First Time. row when the elevens of Georgia In stitute of Technology and University of Pittsburgh play for the benefit of the united war work fund. Not since the season of 1914 has either team lowered its colors to a rival combina tion, and during this period of close to four football years, both combina tions have amassed point totals run ning into the hundreds. It is not the number of points, how ever, which has attracted the atten tion of gridiron fans in all parts of the country to the play of these teams. but rather the wonder ful offense and stonewall defense of the elevens which each season have built up to perpetuate the football fame of the institutions. Neither has had a student body of several thou sands from which to elect a few play ers of exceptional skill or brawn. On the contrary the registration at both Pittsburgh and Georgia Tech, is ex ceeded at many colleges and uni versities.. Under the circumstances such credit as is not the rightful property of the actual toiembers of the teams must go to the prospective coaches and Georgia and Pittsburgh are fortunate in pos sessing two really remarkable football mentors in John Heisman and Glenn Warner. Players of sterling ability In their day, when they wore the mole skin armor of the game, they never lost their enthusiasm for the sport and have in addition kept fully abreast of the rapid changes In the sport during the years since they figured in the scoring of touchdowns. As strategists and Inventors of start ling scoring plays they are in the select coaching class with Fielding Tost, Gll mour Dobie and one or two others. Combined with this exceptional gift is the power, to inspire and control their pupils and a foundation "of football fundamentals which leaves nothing to be desired. The meeting of two teams coached by mentors of this type and with such four years records at their backs Is therefore a gridiron epic. Unless all signs fail, the contest should result In a football history making game. Neither team has hesitated to meet the strongest elevens available, and in view of this fact the records made since 1915 are all themore impressive. Georgia Tech has played thirty games, winning twenty-eight, and being tied in two. More than fifteen hundred points have been scored by the aptly termed "Golden Tornado." Less than one hundred points have been scored in the four years by op ponents while the Georgia average per game Is about fifty. Pittsburgh has played twenty-seven games, winning all with a total point score of about eight hundred. Like Tech, their op ponents have been held within the hundred point mark and Pittsburgh's average per game approximates about thirty points.

J"Z11ZL!1'JZL.V gfagj U&kS&iii. 1 Open Saturday Until 9 P. M. v Home of Hart Seta Topeka Kansas City, St. Joseph, Emporia Employes Are to Get Increase in "Wages. It -was announced today by E. E. Brayman, manager of the local Wells Fargo Express office that the general Increase In express rates as ordered by Director General McAdoo on No vember 20, will go into effect as soon as the schedules are received in the local office. If the schedule comes thru in the terms that were ordered weanesaay, aays Brayman, it will mean an in crease of from three to five cents on each piece that leaves ana arrives at the local office. The idea, as Brayman expresses It. Is to reconcile the state rates with the interstate rates, which will mean about a ten per cent increase. To this cost will be added the cost of what is termed two bcales or zones. That is the cost for transmission of a:.y article i based on the zone sys tem into which the country is di vided according to latitudinal and longitudinal divisions. Difference In Rates. When express rates were raised on July 15, last, according to Brayman, rates in Kansas and in reveral other states were not rais-'d so the rates now existant do not coincide with the Interstate rates. The idea of the feov ernment is evident to reconcile all ptate rates with interstate rates and th.;i add the jump in cost of about two scales. It has been found, says Brayman, by various committees of investigation thit express 'companies are working at a losing game under the present rates, especially in the east. This is clearly indicated by r.IcAdoo's order which says that east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio and Potomac riv.'rs the new rates on merchandise will be about 16 and 17 cents a hun dred pounds more than at present. Tha congestion of roads and express traffic in the east, says Brayman. Is responsible for a large number of short hauls between eastern cities The drayage charge at either end of the haul has increased very much in the last few years. But on the long hauls more of a margin wa3 left from which to take out the cost of drayage In delivery at either end of the line and consequently most of the revenue of the companies was derived from long hauls and western hauls. Did Not Cover Costs. East of the Mississippi the large volume of business had to be handled at rates which did not commence to cover costs. Along with this factor there was :.lso the general shortage of help and the necessity of using inex perienced assistants who did not ac complish the work as efficiently as the workers who have been taken into the army. Working under conditions of this sort the loss from claims paid by express companies as been greater than in any other period of the-hh,tory of the express business. A feature concurrent with the raise In rates will be a 20 per cent raise In the salaries of employes which will take place at once along lines similar to those worked out for the railroads. An increase of approximately $25, 000.000 is anticipated by this action. Half will go to the railroads and half MRS. KINKAID Topeka Woman Suffered Thirty four Years. Was Hardly Able to Get About the House. "My granddaughter came to visit me a few days ago and was astonished to see me so improved, and the first thing she said was, 'Why. grandma, you look so much better, and you are not limping at all. What have you been doing for yourselt?' I told her, of course. I was taking Tanlac and that it had relieved me of the rheu matism almost entirely." The above statement was made by Mrs. Annie E. Kinkaid. who resides at 2123 Fillmore street. Topeka. while in McKarland's drus store, recently. "I am now seventy years of age," continued Mrs; Kinkaid, "and for the past thirty-four years of this time I have simply suffered untold agony with rheumatism. The trouble seemed to be altogether in my limbs, from my hips down. My knees and ankles would swell until I could hardly bend them and the leaders would draw and hurt so I could not walk. My muscles hurt terribly, my very bones seemed to ache, and it was torture for me to move, and it was all I could do to hob ble around the house, I was so crip pled up. My ankles would swell until 1 could not get on a pair of shoes. I just suffered death almost, it seemed to me, and many a night I could not close my eyes, I was In so much pain. I have spent lots of money trying to find something to do me some good, but I kept getting worse in place of better.

DENY SHOOTING CHARGE Two Soldiers Accu.'d -by Albert Snfclman Put Under Arrest. Mark Churich and Charles Lasha way, the two soldiers whom Albert Spielman, another soldier, charged with shooting him a few days ago and for whom the authorities have been looking since, were arrested to day between Fourth and Fifth street on Kansas avenue by Detectives Ed Ransom and George Frost and Officer Frank Ecott. Both men are only 19 years old. Last Sunday Spielman boarded a Country Club car suffering with a bullet wound in his arm, which he said, had been inflicted by these two men, who were members of his own company. Miss Alberta Morand, of Quinton Heights, who had been re ceiving Spielman's attention, told Dr. A. B. Jeffrey that she thought the shootiing was prompted by Jealousy; that Spielman had come to Topeka with the men and spent all his money on them, after which she provided him with funds. Churich and Lashaway bothdenied any knowledge of the shooting, con tending that they were in Kansas City last Sunday. The police received a telegram from their commanding of ficer at Camp Funston a few days ago, asking that they be picked up if ap prehended and held in the city jail. It is probable that guard will be sent for them. It is said that they were identified with a shooting scrape which occurred in Salt Lake City some time ago. They have been absent from camp eighteen days without leave, ac cording to information in the hands of the police. FORD TO BECOME EDITOR v Ijeaves Motor Company to Edit Na tional Weekly.

Adv. r CANT CHANGE SCHOOL Seaman Haa No Power to Pat Gage Park in City. j Ah far as human endeavor Is con cerned at the present time it Is evi dent that the Gage Park school dis trict will have to remain a part of the Washburn rural high, scttool district until the end of time, unless other pro vision is made by the state legislature, according to the decision of Fred A. Seaman, county superintendent. Several months ago the taxpayers of Gage park petitioned the county superintendent to detach the district from the Washburn rural high school district and attach It to the city of Topeka for school purposes only. After months of petitioning, solicitation and argument, the various factions ap peared at the office of the county superintendent with their attorneys to fight the matter out. Seaman heard the case and, as provided by law, pre pared to make a decision. Until this time the several factions had been guided by a law which au thorizes the county superintendent to detach certain territory from one rural district and attach it to another. But Seaman discovered a later statute paragraph 466, page 161 of the School Laws of Kansas, 1917 which pro-, vides that this authority on his part refers to rural districts only. The statute provides that twenty-day notices must be posted in both the dis tricts concerned and as one of these districts is a Topeka district, he would have no right to invade that territory airo post notices. Therefore, he dis covered that he was without Jurisdic tion in the' matter and, regardless of any convictions he may have had in the affair, was compelled to take the only course left open to abide by the newest statute. The result is that all the campaigning, petitioning and other work t,o which the factions have put memserves is entirely without avail. Gage Park wanted to be taken into Topeka because of the longer distance the students would have to travel Irom their homes to school if they re mained in the high school district, as well as to obtain the advantage of the city course of study and the general supervision of the city high schools.

THE RUSSIAN COUP How tlc Bolshevist. Were Overthrown at Omsk. "Washington, Nov. 22. Cable- dis patches received at the Russian em bassy today from Siberia throw a new lifcht on the changes that took place recently in tho All-Russian 'govern ment of Omsk and brought to the front, Admiral Kolchak as director with the approval of the government. A group of three military officers on the night of November 18, accord ing to these dispatches, arrested with out authority two no embers of the di rectory, Avksentff and Zenxinoff, and two prominent citizens of Omsk, Ar gunoff and Rogovsky. The coup, the object of "which is not entirely clear, .was attempted without any participation or knowl edge of the government. It was promptly and emphatically disap proved by the government. In order to prevent further irresponsible ac tivities and to maintain the principle of firm governmental power, the council of minister urged- energetic measures and issued a special decree, authorizing Admiral Kolchat .to take over the supreme power of the state. By his ord.r the offenders were turned over at once for trial. The chief aim of the authorities it is reported is to eradicate the possi bility of further illegal actions or bolshevik eruptions and the complete banishment of politics from the army.

Twenty new cases of influenza were shown on the records on file iff the office of public health department this morning. In the opinion of Dr. H. L. Clark, city health officer, the fa?t that numbers of new cases have arisen daily is due to the cold, damp weather which has prevailed off and on for some time. It tends to keep people indoors, says Doctor Clark, in poorly ventilated houses and other buildings, where if any one person has the germ of the disease, other persons are prac tically sure to be infected. One death was reported this morn ing. A Mrs. White, a colored woman, living at 708 Center street, died at 4:30 o'clock this morning- from in fluenza. Thursday the deaths of Mrs. A. B.

Other cases arising, both in ths county and in the city, where it la not possible for them to be cared for at their homes, will be cared" for at the Provident association, where a hospital will be maintained as long: as the necessity is apparent.

La Hue alleces that he was injured in a collision on Bast Sixth street, November 6 which has resulted in his inability to continue work. La Hue states in his petition that he was standing on the rear platform of a crowded trailer attached to an Oak land car; that they made' the eastern descent of the Sixtii avenue viaduct, but were prevented from entering the switch thre on account ot several other cars on the track ahead of them, j A few minutes later, he says, another i east bound car came down the via- i duct and crashed into the rear of the! trailer on which he was standing, j throwing him violently across a seat and causing him serious internal in- i Juries. He lays the blame for the accident upon the negligence of the railway employes in allowing the track to be come congested, and upon the railway company in placing a switch in such a position. La Hue Is about 67 years old. He was formerly an employe of the Wolff Packing Co. and devoted his evenings to hauling express and baggage. He has a son in a hospital in France.

Columbia, Mo., Xov. 22. For the first time in twenty-eight years, the University of Missouri and the Uni versity of Kansas will not meet on the gridiron this fall. The annual classic struggle for football supremacy be tween the rival universities, the bitter est of any in the Missouri Valley, per haps, was eliminated for this season here late Thursday afternoon when the university authorities decided that the Tigers would not be allowed to make the trip to Lawrence Thanksgiv ing day because of health conditions in Columbia. Dr. W. F. Manly, manager of ath letics, immediately notified the Uni versity of Kansas that the game would have to' be canceled. The Missouri authorities wanted to play the game and they were loath to force the can celing of the contest despite the fact that the Timers are not strong and that every other game on the schedule had been canceled. o Improvement in Health. The question has been under con sideration by the university health committee, the athletic department and the administration officials for a couple of days. In the hope that the epidemic of influenza would abate to such an extent that the team could be permitted to go into action the game was put off as long as possible. Today a canvass of the situation re vealed that there was no hope of health conditions improving to such an extent that it would be safe for the team to go, hence it was decided to notify Kansas before arrangements for the game had proceeded further. The action was taken on recom mendation of the health committee Dr. Dan G. Stine, university physician, stated that there already existed a large number of cases among the S. A. T. C. students and that statistics showed that where students traveled and afterward returned to the uni versity a large number became infect ed with influenza and later communi cated the disease to others. Because of this it was decided to grant no ex cuses for any students to leave Co lumbia for the one-day holiday Thanksgivings including members of the football team. The possibility of providing a special car for the team to convey them to Lawrence and re turn was suggested to the university authorities. An investigation was made and it was found that the rail way under government regulations could not obtain a special coach. A Blow to Athletic Department. The canceling of the game will leave a hole in the finances of the athletic department and this is one of the reasons why the university desired to play the game. Every other game on the schedule having been canceled the receipts of the department have been cut off entirely this fall. It is almost certain that there will be no post season games.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, despondent, wor ried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really incapaci tated by illness. If we all would practice inside-bathing, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thousands of half-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy cheeked people everywhere. The rea son is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates under our pres ent mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the sys tem nearly an ounce of waste ma terial must be carried out, else it fer ments and forms ptomaine-like poisons which are absorbed into the blood. Men and women, whether sick or well, are advised to drink each morn ing before breakfast, a glass of real hot water yith a teaspoonful of lime stone phospate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indiges tible material, -waste, sour bile and toxins. Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranks about this morning inside-bath.

The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and oass it on to the olaaaer. where it often remains to irritate atid inflame, causing a burning:, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times dur ing the rught. The sufferer is in con stant dread, the water passes some times with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is diffi culty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about tour ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful rn a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neu tralize the acids irr'the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation to the j bladder and urinary organs which then i act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, J and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon iuice, combined with lithia, 1 and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused i by uric acid irritation.

It played a lot of classic tunes and some that are the rage. They didn't seem to hit me ripht: I Just can't tell you why: but when they played one by request, 'twas "Comin Thru the Rye." I sat right still and jest forgot all that had gone before. It toolc me back to other days those good old days of yore.

There was hardly a war garden in America this summer which did not contain at least a few rows of pota toes. Many war gardens not only sup plied potatoes for late summer and fall use, but had a good surplus to be stored for winter. Not a pound of this valuable food should be allowed to spoil this winter because of poor storage. For those who have raised potatoes for the first time, a few hints as to their storage will not come amiss, Potatoes must be stored In a cool dark celler or in an outdoor pit, but great care must be taken to keep them from freezing. If you bury them in a pit be sure and cover them suffi ciently to keep out the frost If they are exposed to the light they will turn green. The simplest method of storing po tatoes In the cellar is to place them in open crates which furnish plenty of venuiaiion ana tnen cover them with old sacks and place in a cool dark place. Potatoes have played an Important roie in me 100a or all countries since the war began, and their value will not be lessened this winter. There are many new and delicious ways of pre paring potatoes so that we should find it easy, to carry out the food ad ministration's suggestion to give pota toes their proper place in our vegeta ble ration. The United States Food Administration, The Hate Bow club girls of the T. W. C. A. will meet at 2.30 Saturday afternoon at the association building with Miss Sidney Gardner as leader.

A NEW PIPELINE Inter-Allied Council Has One Across Scotland." London, Nov. 21. The inter-allied petroleum council has been visiting Saotland during the past few days, at tending the formal inauguration of a pipe line laid across-Scotland along the Clyde-Forth canal to secure a con tinuous supply of fuel oil for the Brit ish naval base'-at Hosyth. The pri mary object of this pipe line which can deliver one -hundred tons of oil per hour and is the longest in Europe, isto avert the necessity of tank steam ers going around Scotland to the east coast and thus to diminish the list of tank steamers by submarine attacks. Construction was begun in March and completed November 11. Rear Ad miral H. H. D. Tothijl, fourth British sea lord, who performed the inaugural ceremony, said that the speedy com pletion of the scheme was largely due to "our good friends in the United States who went over the pipe line and provided pipe and also the neces sary hustle and determination to over come all difficulties."

It is claimed by the team sters that the raise was secured on the grounds of increased 'wage demands for hauling and unloading. Such as sertions were a part of the recom mendations made by Danrier in his re port to Emerson Carey, altho the wage side was only one factor. However, according to the team sters, they have not had a raise since last year, and are unable to live on the wages they are now receiving. They allege that some of the dealers are not only paying low wages, but also that they are taking advantage of the government permission to charge 60 cents per ton for wheeling coal into houses from the curbings and then doing a little small scale profit eering by only paying the man doipg tne worn a a cents. During the "flu" epidemic the anion was compelled to pay benefits to sis out of every seven members in order for them to live. At two different times the union took up collections to pay funeral expenses for children of a union teamster.

All hogs weighing under 160 pounds Were in-; eluded in "throwouts" from -packers' droves by an order today of the food administration. This action is de- signed to keep from the market bogs j considered too light for export trade meat, and also to maintain the present price of heavier than "throwouts'' at $17. B0 a hundred pounds. This program will be continued until December 3, when a meeting will be held with the packers and hog pro ducers in Chicago for further action. The food administration urges that they be retained on the farm until they reach proper marketing weight. This la of prime importance, as all pork which can be produced in the next tew months will be urgently needed to sup ply the wants of the export program of pork products.

Bus. Mgr. Published in The Topeka Bute Journal, November 22, 1918.1 State of Kansas, Governor's Office. Now thst the armistice has been signed snd the battle forces In the great war are taking tbe lines designated in tbe armis tice terms, the curtain is being rslsed and tbe world more and more Is learning the true conditions In the countries which have been overrun bv Germany and ber allies. The extent to which death, starvation and the ruthless destruction of property have stalked abroad in those stricken countries Is daily becoming more painfully qppsr. ent. Among all the millions who have suffered at the hands of the oppressor none have been more sorely tried than the Jews. They have been driven to starvation, have been denied sufficient clothing and have been ground between the upper and tbe aetb?r mill-stone by friend and foe alike. Th? Jew has contributed In a most substantial way to the prosperity and advancement ofj an ine nations or tne eartn, ana no race bss been more patriotic, more liberty-loving. He haa fought under the flag of every nation in tbe name of liberty and luatlce for mankind. In the present war thousands of Jews have given their Uvea In the cans for which we fought and those who re mained at home have responded With fine patriotism and devotion to every call. .Yet today nearly one half of the race lacks food and shelter without fault of Its own. It seems to me most fitting that as Amer icana and Kanssns we should hear the call from these stricken people and contribute of our means to a fund which will be de voted to their succor. Knowing the warm appreciation of Jus tice which abides in the hearts of our peo ple snd the fine generosity with which thoy respond to every call from their less for-' tunate fellows, 1, Arthur Cspper, Gover nor of the State of Ksnsaa, therefore, designate the period beginning DECEMBER 10 AND ENDING DECEM BER le st JEWISH RELIEF DAYS in this state. I call upon the people of sll our cities, towns and rural communities to organise tbelr forces and get behind this campaign with true Kansas spirit. No state has been more bleBsed with abundant crops than ours, and I am sure our people will be glsd to give of their bountiful store for tbe relief of the Jews in the war rav aged countries, who sre without food, without homes and even without oppor tunity In their present condition.

CHILDREN HATE PILLS, CALOMEL AND CASTOR OIL Give Fruit Laxative when cross, bilious, feverish or constipated "Calif ornia yrup of Figs", can't harm tender stomach, liver, bowels. Look back at your childhood days. Remember the "dose" mother insisted on castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against tc'"ing them. With our children it's different. VnfhuMi vrVift oltnir tn tVlA ("ll (1 fiirm nf I nhvsln simnlv don't realize what thev do. The children's revolt is well founded. Their tender little "insides" are Injured by them. If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious "California Syrup of Figs." Its action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless "fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that it never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomach, and that a teaspoon ful given today saves a sick child to morrow. Ask your- druggist for a bottle of. "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for'grown-ups plainly on each bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold here. See that it is made by "California Fig Syrup Company." Re fuse any other kind with contempt. Advertisement. TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE TEA Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy and youthful with a sim ple mixture of Sage Tea aud Sulphur. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mother's recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible,, as we are living in an age when a youth ful appearance is of the greatest; ad vantage. Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores seft the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound." It is very popular because nobody can dis cover it has been applied. Simply moisten, your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray, hair disap pears, but what delights the ladies witn wyetn s sage ana suipnur com pound, is that besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few appli cations, it also produces that soft lus tre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It is not in tended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. Advertisement.

CONGRESS IS AFTER IT Tax Leyy Bill Will Cause a Big Scrap. 2PU And Public Utility Ownership Will Be Talked. IS "Nuxared Iron helps put astonishing strength and energy into the reins oi men and brine roses to the cheeks of pale, nervous, run-down women." says Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly physi cian of Bellevue Hospital (Outdoor Dent.) N. Y. and Westchester County Hospital. "I prescribe it regularly in cases of de pleted energy, anaemia and lack of strength and endurance. There is nothing like organic iron Nuxated Iron to quickly enrich the blood, make beautiful, healthy women and strong, vigorous, iron men.1 Satisfaction guaranteed or man an refunded. Washington. Nov. 22. One momen tous session of congress having Just passed into history, the next one, likely to he even more important, holds the attention of official "Washington today. Within ten darys the third and final session of the Sixty-fifth congress will assemble. The paramount issue of that session is: Shall congress recapture from, the executive branch of the government powers conferred under stress of war, and assert itself as the constituted au thority to initiate and direct recon struction policies, or shall President Wilson keep these powers and exercise as an executive function the neces sary reconstruction measures? There are numerous off -shoots from this main issue. One is the Republi can denial of Democratic right to en act a tax law fixing the levies for 1920. This threatens to tie up in definitely a report by the senate finance committee on the tax hill and to postpone final enactment of the measure until next spring. i, J- Public Ownership. 1 Another is the public ownership issue, which is so entangled with the general cause of dispute as to bring uneasiness to both administration and Republican forces. Public ownership has a bi-partisan following in both houses. But public ownership of utilities taken over by the government during the war is. condemned by the Republican "old guard" leaders as a Democratic plan to create a socialistic state. The test on this question is ex pected to come on a bill giving the government permanent, control of the wire systems of the country, which, it is believed, the administration will back. Upon such a bill a three cornered fight would be made. One group com posed both of Democrats and Repub licans would oppose it out of hostility to public ownership of anything. An other would fight it because of par tisan political opposition to any recon struction measure backed by the pres ent administration. The third group would assail it because of personal animosity to Postmaster General Burleson, who now controls the wire system, and who has advocated pub lic ownership. a. Cut Wilson's Powers. Republicans will demand abroga tion of, all presidential war powers and handling of reconstruction prob lems largely by congress. They fore see, they said today, that an effort will be made- to hurry thru the next session, which ends March 3, 1919, all necessary reconstruction, legislation with a view to preventing an extra Session March 4. That session. If call ed, will be controlled by Republicans. They assert that they will make an extra session imperative by delaying action on vital measures If such strong methods become necessary. Without hesitation, Republican leaders today said they will do anything in their power at the coming session to make their ideas and not those of President Wilson prevail. i Democrats, holding control, declare this is impossible and that the session will practically clean up thej-econ-struction program which President Wilson wishes put thru. WHAT OF THE KAISER? Allied Action Is Becoming Daily More Probable. Paris. Nov. 22. Allied action to ward inflicting punishment on the kaiser is daily becoming more prob able. The Temps says: "Fraiice particularly has the most cordial sentiments toward Holland, therefore, it In sincere friendship, ad vices the quickest possible elimina tion of the kaiser as an irritating problem. A Hague jurist has ren dered an opinion that the Dutch law does not permit extradition. We do not hazard a contrary opinion but we suggest a much simpler solution, namely, expulsion as an undesirable. If put aboard a ship or conducted to the Belgian frontier, the allies will see what disposition is to be made of his case. If conducted to Germany, the Berlin government will be in a po sition to show the measure of its re publicanism by its ardor in punishing the author or the war. FUNSTON TO PLAY PIKE Gen. Wood Commends Players Face Camp Dodge Thanksgiving. Camp Funston. Nov. 22. Coach l. J. Quigley has been putting his di visional griddeis thru some hard licks in the last few days and if the squad is not in top form when they collide with the Camp Pike doughboys next Saturday, it won't be "Quig's" fault.
