Austrian Repre sentation in the Reichsrath. Paris. Sept. 2. The supreme coun cil of the peace conference decided to day to send a note in forceful terms to the German government pointing out the contradiction with the Ver sailles treaty of the provision in the new German constitution providing for the representation of Austria in the German relchsrath. The council demands the suppres sion of the article within a fortnight, declaring that otherwise the allies will be compelled to undertake a further occupation of the left bank of the Rhine. The article objected to is artie'e 61 of the German constitution, as in con flict with article 80 of the German peace treaty forbidding German inter ference In Austrian affairs. Article 80 of the Versailles treaty reads: "Germany acknowledges and will re spect strictly the independence of Aus tria, within the frontiers which may be fixed in a treaty between that state and the principal allied and associated powers. She agrees that this inde pendence shall be inalienable except with the consent of the council of the league of nations." The text of the paragraph in the German constitution referred to has not been received in this country. It appears, however, that the clause ap plied to all th territories of German speaking peoples in Europe, and therefore, to German Austria, with the effect of providing that Austria might have a certain number of representa tives in the German parliament, pro portionate to the Austrian population.

The char ters of twenty-five local unions, which revolted against the- officers of the United Mine Workers, were revoked late Monday by Frank farrington, president ot the state organization. The Bollevllle district Is hard hit by the drastic action. Action will be nken at once to weed out radical leaders in locals Utnt were not expelled so that the Illinois mine union will be purged of the eleim r-ts which aro attempting to wreck it, Far rinxton said. Steps are to be taken immediately to organize new locals in the districts affected. Ellisville will likely be the first on the calendar as Ellisville min ers who are in opposition to the radi cals wired the state headquarters im mediately after the revocation of the charter to send an organizer at once and give them a new local. In the reorganization, the radicals will be left out in the cold.

Her Future Left to League Vienna Seems Doomed. Paris, Sept. 2. The revised text of the peace terms framed for Austria's acceptance by the peace conference was handed to the Austrian plenipo tentiary at St. Germain this afternoon. The treaty was presented to the Austrian delegates by Paul Dutasta, general secretary of the peace confer ence. He also handed them the allied reply to the Austrian counter-proposals and a covering letter reiterating that Austria had precipitated the war by an ultimatum unacceptable to Ser bia. Future Tjeft To League. Paris, Sept. 2. The Austrian peace treaty as now virtually completed by the supreme council for submission to the Austrian plenipotentiaries leaves the future of Austria very largely in the hands of the League of Nations. The league, that is, would be able to decide whether Austria shall be per mitted to Join Germany, and, as France is opposed to such a union, as are Switzerland and many other countries, there would appear to be little chance of Austria's securing per mission to terminate her existence as a separate state should she so desire in future. There seems to be a general feel ing odissatisfaction in peace confer ence circles with ttie treaty, which was adopted from the German treaty and does not fit such a small power very well. The council, however, had agreed today on virtually all sections of the treaty, because there is a gen eral weariness with discussion. Vienna Is Doomed. Under the terms of the treaty Vienna, with its 2.000,000 inhabitants, seemed doomed to lapse into compar ative commercial insignificance, as there is a population of only 4,000,000 within the county outside the city to support the capital, while with Jugo Slavla. Czecho Sovakia and Hungary existing, as spparate powers, Vienna can hardly hope to recover the busi ngs formerly drawn from their ter ritories. If the internationalization of Fiume were provided for, as is expected by many quarters. It is pointed out by members of the peace delegations that Austria's shrunken commercial Inter ests would thereby be protected to some extent but the territory contribu tory to the capital Is so limited that it is generally thought by the peace dele- gates that ViennaMs doomed as a great I capital and mustXmevltably relapse Into a residential city with relatively! slight business importance. It is likewise pointed out by mem bers of th conference that, even were Austria to be joined eventually with Germany, the future f Vienna as a great city would not be assured, as it would fall thus to acquire additional tributary territory and would be sub ject to the sharp competition off Ger man cities with better transportation facilities.

Nat'l Consumers' League Issues Report Similar to Capper's. Washington, Sept. 2. Virtual pack er control of five livestock markets is responsible for heavy losses to pro ducers during: the last ten days. Sena tor Capper, Kansas, said today. The recent market break was cited by Capper as a reason why legislation along the lines proposed in the Ken yon and Kendrick bills should be en acted by congress. Factor In Market Break? Capper's statement comes on the heels of a similar one from the Na tional Consumers league. "While there is probably no proof that the big packers actually con trolled the situation, I cannot but be lieve that they have been a factor." Capper said. "I think the market would have been better off In such an emergency if the Big Five did not have practical control. They did nothing to brace up the market, and I can see no good reason for a decline to the extent we have just witnessed. To Arrest Legislation. "I am naturally disappointed that a scare of this kind should be thrown out at a time when it would tend to arrest the movement for regulatory legislation." The National Consumers league de clared that the packers, with their warehouses bulging with food, could afford to cease buying just as the sen ate hearings on the Kenyon and Ken drick bills got under way. "The farmers of the country are be ing made to sulfer for the sins of the packers as in .times past," the league state. "This time the penalty has been im posed for a different reason. Just as hearings were started on the Kenyon Kendrick bills to regulate the packers a most unprecedented drop In prices paid for hogs and cattle took place. So laat week Washington was flooded with cattle raisers, farmers, retail dealers and independent packets to beg congress to put a atop to all agi tation. Meanwhile the packers' ware houses are bulging; with enough food to carry their business for the coming winter and they can afford to cease buying for a while." City Slaughter Houses. Emphasis was laid on the section the Kenyon bill authorizing con- struction of municipal slaughter houses. "The consumers must realize that the pecking business cannot be smashed without having an estab lished, nation-wide co-operative move ment ready to do the work, nor can people feed themselves if the packing) business is merely smashed with no county and city slaughter houses but few public markets to take its place.' FUNERALS TOO HIGH Attorney General Will Now Investigate the Cost of Burying. Kansans should postponed dying until the state concludes its probe of burial expense?. Under the anti-trust laws R. J. Hopkins, attorney general, plans to investigate funeral charges by undertakers in a number of towns In the state. There is no charge of viola tion of the anti-trust laws. But infor mation gathered which shows ab normal charges will be given to the newspaQers for publication. Many complaints are said to have been made as to funeral expenses in this state. It is declared that the un dertaker has seriously and solemnly hiked rates and extracted increased revenues from distracted relatives. If evidence shows an agreement of the undertakers as to prices, prosecutions will be filed under the anti-trust law. In the meantime tho, the attorney general will conduct an investigation j of suspicion. Where funeral directors are snown to cnarge unrea.-onaoie fees for funerals and Is engaged in individual profiteering, the Informa tion will be given to the newspapers. Thru publicity tha attorney general expects to force lower funeral prices. 11 MILLION BALESTF COTTON That Is 'ietrmmrnt'i Forecast of Crop i Aag. 23 Condition 01. t. Washington, Sept. 2.

George W. Hanna Urges Short Shotgun Squads. Desperate in heir failure to block organiied bank robberies In Kansas members of the executive committee of the Kansas State Bankers' asso ciation are in session this afternoon, to discuss plans for meeting the sit uation. Several members of the com mittee openly approve a free and un restrained gun campaign. Proposal may be made for organization of town arsenals to meet an emergency. Reso lutions are also being prepared urging Governor Allen to suspend practices of paroling men sent to prison for bank robbery. Kansas bankers admit they are anx ious for a solution of the present bank robbery problem. At the session this afternoon In the office of Walter E. Wilson, state bank commissioner, statement was mnde that nearly thir ty banks in this state have been looted since the first of the year. A total of 1258,000 in cash and liberty bonds have been stolen. Bankers More Cautious. That bankers In this state will be come more alert in safeguarding against robberies Is clearly apparent. That every precaution will be taken to protect funds was indicated by the statements of members of the com mittee. Recently rewards were of fered. The reward plan has failed utterly. No arrests have been made which tended to slow down the loot of banks. Now the bankers will try more orastlc plan. "It Is clearly up to the bankers to use a brand of medicine which will provide a cure for the present free handed practice of robbing banks,'' said George W. Hanna of Clay Center, president of the association. "One of the big troubles In Kansas la the fact that most banks are practically with out real protection." Members of the committee are dis posed to laugh at the burglar alarms which are used by a number of banks. Usually the alarm doesn't work when It is needed. Often a clever bank rob ber puts the a.larm system out nf business before he starts to collect tha community's deposits. Form Shotgun Squads. "In my Judgment a short barrel shotgun organisation is the only methood of curing the bank robbing practice." said Tom Sweeney, Law rence banker and former president of the association. "We offered rewards. But we neither sent men to prison nor stopped the robberies. It seems to be about the easiest thing In the world Just now to rob a bank and get away." J. D. Joseph, of Whitewater, former state senator from Butler county, said he would propose a remedy this after noon. Rut Joseph wants the bankers to keep their own counsel. "If we are going to catch bank rob bers," said Joseph. "It Isn't a good plan to publish our plans before we begin work. Most of the bank rob bers are careful newspaper readers," It Is probable that s fund of sev eral thousand dollars will be raised to direct a fight on the apparently well organized gangs of bank robbers. When the state broke up the Wymore and Callahan gangs several years ago. several robbers were killed snd the state spent 125,000 In conducting a man hunt. Propose Town Arsenals. One proposal today was for town arsenals. Following a recent Kansas bank robbery, a posse in a neighbor ing town sought to trail the robbers In motor cars. But a hasty canvass of the three local hardware stores showed there was not a gun to be had In any store. The fact that nearly all of the recent robberies have been in daylight, has made useless vaults and strong boxes of the banks. Robbers merely threw money In open vaults and on counters In a sack, pushed bank employes In the vault. closed the door and were miles sway before the robbery was discovered. Governor Alien imy be called upon to aid in the drive to break up bank robbing popularity. The governor, tho. Is expected to be able to provide but a small sum of money. Such funds as are raised must seemingly come directly from the hsnkers. Sev eral members of the committee stated today that a legislative appropriation would be an excellent thing.

Sept. 2.- Evidence of appalling waste of money by the ord nance department of the army has Just been submitted to the sub-committee investigating ordnance. Repre sentative Graham of Illinois, chair man, by Lieut. Col. R. H. Hawkins, C. S. A., In connection with the construc tion of a loading plant at Fort Dela ware, where the government has ex pended fourteen million dollars, where no shells were ever loaded and where Secretary Baker would now expend an additional $185,000 for land if congress would permit. May 23, 1918. the ordnance depart ment gave a cost-plus contract for this plant to the Marlin Rockwell cor poration, which organized a subsidiary corporation known as the Marlin Rockwell Loading company. The esti mated cost of the plant, as stated in the contract, was to be from 1 mil lion dollars to 1 'j million dollars. Ac cording to the testimony of Colonel Hawkins, the plant, not yet com pleted, has cost J 14,000.000. Picked Site in Swamp. The Marlin Rockwell Loading com pany let the contract for construction to the Fred T. Ley company. Definite information regarding the selection of the site Maj. Clair Foster, construc tion division, was wholly unable to procure, but that It was a thoroly bad site he Is convinced, saying that "most of it Is swamp," and that "nearly all of it was under water at high tide when a protecting dam broke on April 11." (I91S). Major Foster said further that the vice president of the Ley company urged that the site be abandoned and that his own inquiries as to why it was chosen were met with aneners which proved to be untrue. Major Foster cites some of the sal aries paid b. the loading company and by the Ley company, whose employes were all transferred to the loading company's payroll. The first manager for the "loading company, he says, was a good man. hut he became so dis gusted that he quit. The company then employed a man "fitted for the Job neither by experience nor tem perament. Altho his shortcoming should have been at once apparent, his salary' was increased June 1 from $3,640 tii $7,500." Increased Officials' Salaries. The first manager of the loading company was paid $10,000. but May 1 was Increased to $15. 000. The "second in command." a lawyer and a former bond salesman, at first drew $12,000. He was increased t $tS.n0o. The treasurer, employed at $4,800, was In Creased to $6,000. Df blm. Major Foster says govern ment officers questioned as to the treasurer's duties, said "they never had been oble to see that he did any thing except to endorse the govern ment's checks and sign the loading company's name." The assistant treasurer, who had been working for $1,800, came to work for $2,080. and was increased to $3,600. The chief engineer, whom Major Foster declares to have been in competent "but far and away the best of the loading outfit." was hired at $7,500 a year plus $180 for living ex penses, and was oon increased to $10,000.' Commenting on these sal aries and increases Major Foster sayi: A Town Without Inhabitants. "Please bear in mind that all these salaries do not come out of the load Ing company's fee. The government pays them and then pays 10 per cent on top of them." The loading plant was not completed In time to load any shells before the signing of the armistice. A town, built to house 20,000 people, with "moving picture houses and everything." ac cording to Major Hawkins, was scarce ly occupied. Other Waste Charges. Washington. Sept. 2.

Pratt Is Furnished With Thriller j When Left Farrel's Plane Plunges. Pratt. Sept. 2. Left Farrel, pilot of j the Pratt Aero club plane, is at his mother s home in this city in a serious, but not critical condition following a fall of 2.500 feet at Greensburg. Far rel had hauled passengers thruour the day and in the evening wajf giving a stunt program and was finishing up with a tall spin when the control lever struck and Farrel was unable to loosen it. He managed to Tighten the ship twice in the long fall and seeing that he was about to land on the hard main street he tilted the machine bo that it landed in a plowed patch nearby. His fall of 2.500 feet was a thriller to the many thousands who were watch ing him. But a few knew that he was falling until the crash came. Among those who were watching him were members of the club, Farrel'a closest friends. Farrel became unconscious ahortly after the fall and remained so for sev eral hours. He is now Improved, but physicians say that It will require some time to overcome the shock of the fall. This is Farrel's third fall within the past few eeks. but he was rnore fortunate in the others. The plane was wrecked beyond repair. Wall paper- Adv. -J. K. Jones Paint Co.

Speaking of the housing famine, he said this and the resulting hardships and high rentajs are due in great part to the fact that the private Investor hasjvithdrawn from the field of real estaTe mortgages because they do not yield him a sufficiently attractive re turn after taking into account the in come tax. Creation of a federal bureau of salvage, informative and advisory, was suggested as a means of demonstrat ing the value of 'fnaterials heretofore considered more or less waste. Thrift lessons of the war, said Kahn,, appear to have been entirely forgotten and he suggested the salvage bureau be also charged with promot ing and teaching thrift. f NEW BILL MAKES (Continued froiu Page One.

Herbert Hoover, director gen eral of interallied relief, said he be lieved it imperative for the United States to extend to Europe credits of from $3,000,090,000 to $l.f 00,000,000 for a year and a half or two years in order to provide a market for the American surplus and aave Europe from disaster. The credits, Mr. Hccv er declared, should be issued to es tablished European nferchants. under guarantee of their own governments, and a guarantee in turn should bfe given by the United States to the American merchants in ii terest. Speculation Behind H. C. L. Paris, Sept. 2. A distressing era of speculation in foodstiffs in the United States and thruout the world's primary food markets is largely responsible for high food costs, in the opinion of Her bert Hoover, chairman of the inter allied relief organization, who. on the eve of his departure or the United States, granted the Associated Press an interview. Wharves and warehouses in north ern European ports are overflowing with foodstuffs, principally meats, fats and dairy products sent by merchants') an over tne world. Mr. Hoover said. These merchants, he declared, had "gambled" on sale in .Poland, Czecho Slavokia. the Baltic states and Ger- maiy at high prices, but these states have only a depreciated local currencv and many commodities are in danger of spoiling as the central European market for foodstuffs is limited to the ability of the peoples to buy on credit. Shortage Not Cause. 'This year's speculations," Mr. Hoover said, "'are due. in my opinion chiefly to the belief of food merchants and manufacturers that when the blockade was removed there would be an enormous demand for foodstuffs and other commodities In central and eastern Europe. This speculation was not due to any important shortage at presMit of actual supply. This specu- lative fever which was not confined to foods was greatly stimulated by the long delay In the removal of the block ade until the peace treaty M signed at Versailles." Responding to an inquiry as to how- food speculation could be checked In America, Mr. Hoover replied: Mitchell on Right Track. "Attorney General A. MltoBell Pal mer is on the right track when he en deavors to break down speculation. We are now coming into a flood of production of foodstuffs in the north ern hemisphere and will again have a great surplus in the United States. If, in, the meantime Europe has not found credits to purchase the coming winter s supplies, we are likely to have a glut and prices may fall below the cost OX production to American farm ers. "The present high prices of food are not due to over-exports to Europe from the United States during the past year. Mr. Hoover pointed out that the problems involved In the speculative wave were very difficult to deal with oeeause it was world wide and not confined to the United States. Farmers Must Not Sufier. "The law of supply and demand,' he continued, "is not working normal ly and probably will not for another year. While Drosneetive food Rnnniies i for the next twelve months are about equal to the apparent need, unstable sellers will tend to create great specu lative waves and may inflate prices to a point unendurable to the consumer, or in the reverse situation, unendur able to the farmer. "We will have a large surplus next year and must have a prosperous farming community we are to have the world fed In the future and main tain stability at home and abroad."

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL TUESDAY EVENING, SETEMBER 2. 1919 KICK OUT I. W. W. That Ik J. H. Crawford's Advice to Labor Unions. He Made Eloquent Address at Labor Day Celebration. BISHOP WISE ALSO SPEAKER Eminent Prelate Urged That Laborers Sare Humanity. Celebration Here Greatest in History of City. The time ha come when erory working man in America mum chooie between the American Federation of I-ahor. whose principle Is that of in dustrial democracy, and the Industrial Workers of the World, whose princi ple Is that of labor autocracy. J. H. Crawford, state labor commissioner, told the thousands of men and womsn at Oafte park at the b'fc Labor day celebration. And then It Is up to every man to come out in the open and say which side he Is going to stick by, Crawford said. In a voice that rang with sincerity. In words that paint?d graphically, the labor commissioner drove home to his audience an understanding of the grave peril that threatens every Amer ican home today Crawford pointed out that the world has had enough of autocracy, whether It be of labor or of crowned heads or militarism The great war, he said, wjs fought to estnhlinn democracy, and unless the principle of the American Federation of Labor are triumphant over the I. V. W.. the great war was fought In vain. Of greater Importance than the cost of living; of more vital concern than the league of nations. Is the settlement of the labor problem, the commis sioner declared. He asserted that the A. JT. of L. murt purge Its ranks of radicals and cast out every wolf In heep's clothing, for under the guise of "the one big union." the L W. W. la spreading Its seditious and revolu tionary propaganda into every com munity. The A. F. of L... Crawford pointed out. was loynl to the government dur ing the great crisis, having furnished 20 per cent of the men who licked the Huns, while the I. V. W. by their own admission, sought to obstruct the oper ations of the government. Dlslinp Wise a Speaker. Mlshop James Wise, of the Episco pal church, also addressed the union men and women, pointing out that la bor holds the balance of power In the country and that upon labor alone de pends the questions of whether this power shall be used selfishly or for the uplift of all humanity. As far as the speakers' voices carried, silent, serious men and women listened atten tively, apparently deeply interested In the solution of the problem that now confronts the nation. Topeka awoke with somewhat of a headache today the result of the day before. But what a day! Never be fore In the history of the city has or ganized labor observed such a holiday. Approximately 25.000 union men and their families were vitally concerned In the celebration, and there was not a hitch In the program from the time the parade started until a Ffitty Arhuckle film closed the festivities last night. Paseant Big Success. rrobably the most interesting and beautiful feature of the day was the Mother Goose pageant in the evening, ,In which more than BOO persons, old ahd young, participated under the direction of Capt. W. P. MacLean and a corps of assistants. Children In all the colors of the rainbow, representing soldiers, fairies, water and land nymphs and scouts, acted their parts perfectly. The play was taken from the Moth er Goose rhymes and unfolded the story of two children who fell asleep In the woods, wishing they might real ly see in life all the wonderful char acters about whom they had Deen j rending. No sooner are they asleep than their wishes come true. The part of Jack-in-the-box was taken by Miss Adele Foster, and Mrs. Wlllard H. Trefry took the part of Neptune's daughter. Her nymphs were Mtlchell McDanlel, Helen Mathews, Catherine Smith, Ruby Cole- man, Juanlta Armstrong and Helen Thomas. F.sther Thomas represented the Moon girl.

Nei ther of the men scored a knockdown and neither seemed seriously troubled during the fast four round affair. No decision was rendered and both men won much applause by their clever work.

Too many folks drag along day in and day out, thus handicapped. And too often they overlook the kidneys which are likely at fault. Weak kid neys cause many queer aches, pains and BRANNER W. D. Meredith, drayman, 300 Dranner St., says: "The jarring of the wagon is what weakened my kid neys and caused backache two years ago. When 1 stooped over to lift a trunk, a sharp pain struck me in my kidneya and came near doubling me up. I had to get up several times at night to pasa the kidney secretions and I often came near falling over with dizzy spells. I heard about Doan's Kidney Pills and used two boxes which I got at Olbler'a Drug Store. Doan's rid me of the lame hack, dizziness and regulated my kidneya." EIGHTH Mrs. Sarah A. Hodge. 1320 Sth St..

It now becomea Interesting to know what will do regarding the demands of the brotherhoods. The flat advance In pay asked for by tha brotherhooda amounts to 1 100.000.000. which is Increased to approximately $1,200,000,000 when overtime pay la Included. That amount Is about 100 per cent of all previous increases granted since the rails have been un der federal control. Tremendous in creases In both passenger and freight rates have failed to meet tha labor de mands already agreed to, and money paid Into the treasury by the people In the shape of exorbitant taxes has been drawn upon to meet the deficit. If we hae had to retort to such ex tremes to satisfy the demands of the brotherhoods up to this time, what la tha country to do when those demands have been doubled T The president may surrender to the employes and grant what they ask. It so. the money must be raised by increased taxes or an increase in rates. The sum ia so enormous that either method would be Immediately felt by the people. The cost of living would go up to un precedented heights with a bound. fou!d operation of the roads by tha owners have brought matters to a worse condition than now exists? (..'orlgress la trying to keep tha pres ident ct the capital. If It succeed the Kanaaa legislature may try out the plan on our governors. The right of self determination of peoples" Is a high sounding phrase and one that tickles the ear of tha populace but the United States fought a four years' war in oppoaltion to that principle. An official of the United States treasury takes the people to task for their extravagance and attributes high prices to reckless spending. But where Is there greater extravagance than In the administration of public affairs? The United States has become one of the great rice producing countrlea of the world. This comparatively new Industry has grown out of a system peculiar to this country of producing rica In a manner in which modern ma chinery can ba utilised In planting, cultivation and harvesting. Instead nf the crude methods by which it Is pro duced In the Orient. The quantity of rica passing out of our ports to for eign countries and our non-contiguous territories In the fiscal year IMS was S30.000.000 pounds aa against 161, 000,000 pounds In the year before the war. The rice crop of the United States was 23.649,000 bushels In 1914, and. according to the latest estimates of the department of agriculture, will ba 43.487,000 bushels "In 1919. We often hear references to a "big cheese," but Armour has turned out one that weighs 31,9(4 pounds. Senator Kenyon and one or two ex tremists In the senate who follow hi lead have been making a great ado regarding an Intensive campaign at propaganda that Is progressing to "scare off" support of the Kenyon bill to place the packing Industry under what virtually would be federal eos) trol. The packers thru their association admit that they are undertal 'ng to en lighten the people aa to what tha measure would mean, not only to tha packing Industry Itself, but to stock growers and the consumers of meat products as well. But when It comes to tha Kenyon crowd charging that witnesses and newspapers have been bought up by the packers it Is time to demand proof. Labor unions which resort to strikes In order to establish the "closed" shop, may some day find more closed shops than they want. WAGES HIGH AMD LOW. Samuel Crowther. writing In the World's Work, believes that more at tention should be paid to the result of a man's work and less to the high cost of living. If there be production in return for a wsge then the cost of living will take care of Itself The curious part of It all, he says. Is that in most discussion of wages, what tha rr..in does for a wage is sel dom considered, while page after page of testimony la taken aa to how much It coats to live, altho It must be self evident that so long aa we work under a wage system. If production ba not returned for wages, then a living wage can never exist. Inevitably a .wage paid, which la not wholly earned, must be added into the price of the finished product and eventually raise the price of all products, so that when the wage earner goes to buy he is bound to find his money Insufficient. Wages are high when they do not result In production; they are low no matter how many dollars are con tained In them if they give produc tion. The union between wages and pro duction is inseparable, but it is neg lected by nearly all employers and by most employes. There is somehow an Idea, regardless of all the facta, that a particular Job la worth JuJt so much and no more. Hence we have what la called the market rate, which in turn varies according to the demand, as compared with the supply of labor. But tha beat employers of the coun try have long since given up any idea that there is such a thing as a mar ket rate for labor. There Is no mar ket rate for professional men above a certain grade, there ia no market rate for surgical operations, or for good portrait painting. "Whether wages wilt stay up or come down," says this writer, "does not depend upon the employers, or upon Mr. Gompers, or upon any other group in the world. The particular number of counters used is not of the slightest Importance anyway. Wages are too high when they do not give production. They are too low not when they do not support life, but when the return to the employer is higher than it should be. This Is a very indefinite statement, but the whole matter of wages la Indefinite because It gets down to particular cases, and tha balance between la bor and capital Is not a thing which can be decided except in the crudest manner by national boards for It Is largely a matter of Individual brains. Nationally fixed wages promote sloppy production and Inevitably raise prices." LABOR'S CHANGING VIF.W. Apparently labor leaders are begin ning to see the effect of high wages on the cost of living and are calling a halt in the effort to keep the endless chain of increased wages and In creased prices from continuing to re volve. W. S. Stone, chief of the Brotherhood of Leocomotlve Engineers for Instance, has come out with the declaration that "a decrease in the cost of living Is far more essential to tha general welfare at this time than an increase in wages." Mr. Stone In sists that there must be a halt be cause wage Increases cannot be kept up continuously to keep pace with prices. rolntlng In the same direction is a resolution passed by employes of the Mldvale Steel efc Ordnanca company, the Cambria Steel company and their subsidiary companies, without a dis senting voice, at a meeting m Atlantic City. The resolution follows: Whereas, the high coet of living needs to be abated by diligent, efficient and conscientious labor, by thrift and by avoidance of waste and extrava gance: and whereas the price of com modities la regulated by the day's la bor of a man and the real unit of value or ths unit of compensation Is not a dollar but the purchasing price of a dollar, and that the price of all things, meaning the average price of everything we use and consume, which la commonly referred to aa the average price of commod'.tisa. Is fixed, regu lated, raised or lowered by the aver age compensation received for one hour's -work by every man and every woman; and whereas we believe the only sure remedy for the high cost of living Is Increased production and the stabtllratlon of prices In conformity with wages now bel-ig paid; and whereas we believe any workman who demands a greater proportionate re turn for his labor than his fellow workmen in ether lines are getting Is as guilty of profiteering as a grocer who charges exorbitant prices for the necessitlea of life, and that Increases In wages paid to certain classes of workers by ths government or others will result In higher prices helng set by the profiteers for the necessities of living to all purchasers alike. It Is resolved that the persistent and unceasing dema id of workmen employed In all classes and kinds of Industries for a shorter day's work and an Increased wags In order to meet the present high cost of living Is uneconomic and unwise and should not be encouraged that private monopolies should be controlled and profits restricted to a rate that shall be fair to the consumer; that unnec essary exports of food and clothing be restricted and that all stores of hoard ed supplies be uncovered and placed In the open market; that copies of this resolution be forwarded to the presi dent of the United States, to the sen ators In congress from Pennsylvania and to the congressmen of the vari ous districts in which are located the various plants of the Midvale Steel ak Ordnance company, and to the stats and municipal authorities, to the end that they may by all the powers and means to them available endeavor to bring about normal conditions, with special privileges to none, but Justice to all. and sure and swift retribution for those who may attempt to profiteer in the necessities of life. Senator Kenyon's bill providing for government control of the meat pack ing Industry should be entitled: A bill to ruin livestock growers, wreck the packing Industry, raise prices and lower service. TOPEICA BTATX JOURNAL INFORMATION BUREAU TKWDXM1C 3. rx a JfTVF THOUSAND LIVES SAVED. Washington. D. C, Aug. 30. The American public la accustomed to newspaper stories of mining disasters with headlines announcing hundreds of lives lost. A new headline has been written over the mining accidents of the past decade by the Bureau of Mines, ac cording to Director Manning. He claims that the rescue and mine safety work of the bureau has saved five thousand lives since the Bureau of Mines was founded in 1910. The death rate in coal mines Is still high. In svery camp of a thousand miners there are three who will have been killed tn mining accidents be fore a year has elapsed, and more than two hundred who will have been In jured. There are more than a million men working In the mines of America and they face a casualty rate as uni form and certain as that of any de tachment at the battle front, and much higher than that of some mili tary nnlta In action. Director Manning cites convincing figures to show thst the Bureau of Mines has greatly reduced this casual ty rate by means of its mine rescue cars, one of which It operates in each mining district in the United States. These cars are rushed to all disas ters. Between accidents, they go about She, country giving lessons to the miners in mine rescue work. The re- suit is that practically every mining camp in the country has Its team of trained rescue workers, fully equipped with oxygen tanks and first air ap paratus. The daya of panic and wasted energy in case of accident Is over. When a. cave-in or an explosion occurs now. the work of rescue and of resuscitation la often carried thru as systematically and effectively aa the digging of coal. Director Manning claims that the death rate in mines can be reduced another 50 per cent, and he is going to make an elaborate effort to Im press the Importance of mine rescue work upon the miners, the mine oper ators and the public in general, when the new Pittsburgh laboratory of the bureau of mines is dedicated at the end of this month. The bureau of mines has had a laboratory in Pittsburgh ever since the bureau was founded. The laboratory is now moving Into a new million dol lar building, with greatly Increased equipment and facilities. Miners and mining men from all over the United States will attend the dedication. One hundred of the best mine rescue teams In the United States will hold a grest elimination contest for medals and prises. Incidentally, this new laboratory will be a notable addtion to what the people of Pittsburgh claim ia one of the greatest aggregations in tech nological laboratories and other facili ties in the United States. The Uni versity of Pittsburgh, the Carnegie Museum, and the Carnegie Institute of Technology are all near the bureau of mines laboratory. Taken all together, these organizations constitute a really great university of its kind. The bureau laboratory includes the only experimental mine In the world, and this fully equipped mine will be the scone of two very spectacular coal dust explosions during the dedication ceremonies. These explosions are not irlven for idle .amusement, but to Im- press upon miner, and the pobbe t. fact that coal dust, or any other dust containing carbon, is a dangerous ex plosive. Its proof and advertisement of the fact that coal dust causes dangerous explosions Is an schlevement of the bureau of mines hardly less important than its mine rescue work. Before the bureau was founded, while it was known to scientists that fine dust containing carbon would ex plode, practical mining men scouted the idea that explosions in coal mines were really caused by the accumula tion of dust. Their scepticism led to enormous loss of life. Back in 1907, for example, there were four great mine explosions in rapid succession, which killed 800 men. and none of them could be adequately explained on the ground that explosive gases had accumulated In the mine. It was this series of holocausts which led to the creation of the bureau of mines. Congress realized that unless some thing was done coal mining would be come such a hazardous occupation that men would not enter it. So. after three years of cogitation and debate, a bill was passed creating the bureau of mines. The bureau experts demonstrated that coal dust Is nn explosive by ex ploding some dust In a steel tube at the Pittsburgh laboratory. But the hard-headed mining man was still skeptical. He said that such an ex plosion could be produced in a steel tube, but not in a mine. "All right.' said the scientists, "we ill build a little mine of our own and show you." So the experimental mine was broutrht into being, and coal dust ex plosions were staaed which convinced the most skeptical of mine operators that he was killing men by not con trolling the dust. Kver since then, the bureau has been pullinpr off explosions from time to time, so that the miners will not forpet that coal dust explodes. This work has led incidentally to the j establishment of the fact that the dust in flour mills and in corn-product mills Is also explosive, and has result ed in measures being taken to prevent explosions of this kind, which had be fore been regarded as mysteries. The new mines laboratory Includes an airtight room which can b flooded with any of the poisonous gases which endanger life in mines, so that gas masks and oxygen tanks can be dem onstrated. This room is fitted up Just like a man. with a track, car and other obstructions found in real mines. After an explosion or a cave-in, it is often the poisonous gases which en danger the miners' lives. Many have lost their livs when trying to find their way out. The bureau now ad vises miners to barricade themselves Into corners and so to keep the poi sonous gases away until help reaches them. Recently four men thus lived entombed for four days, surrounded by poisonous gases which could not reach them. When they were finally reached by a rescue crew, they were able to walk out of the mine, very weak but otherwise uninjured. At this dedication ceremony will be told the story of Safety First." The bureau of mines claims credit for this phrase, which has now become an idiom of the language. Slogans such as "JPafety ahead of production" were used by a steel company before the bureau came into existence, but "Safety First" was coined by the bu- reau officials and by them advertised until it has become one of the most 1 widely known slogans of American j industry. The safety of miners' is of course 1 not the only subject which is investi gated in this laboratory. The bureau is carrying on a number of technical mining experiments all the time. Two of the most Important lines of work have to do with the burning of coal and the extraction of oil from the ground. The economical use of coal, both In factories and In homes, by proper firing and by using the right kinds of grates, has been preached by the bureau for years, and It Is still making experiments In that line. With only enough oil in sight to last a few years, Jts work in connec tion with the oil wells is even more Important. A large amount of oil is left in the ground by reason of faulty boring and pumping, and the bureau is experimenting in better methods of doing both these things. iittkBcftns NotLs2lXOK

BY IZOLA FORRESTER. Stubs named her that the very first day she appeared in the square and passed out nickels to those youngsters who were lucky enough to please her. Stubs and Marlska saw her first. Peaceably enough they were offering advice to the old man who cleaned out the dry leaves from the fountain. It was the sure mark of summer time when they started up the fountain, and the children regarded It aa, the signal for celebration. Marlska was like a wind-blown leaf herself, skinny, brown, light-footed. twirling and dancing In her wisp of a made-over coat, with a red crocheted "Tam" dangling over one ear. "If you'll Just stand still for a minute I'll give you a nickel," the girl called to her, as she stood with a little pad and pencil by the edge of the circular walk around the fountain. And Marlska took up the offer in stantly, standing like some little stat uette on the rim of cement, with a huge urn of blooming tulllps, lifting behind her. Stubs eyed the proceedings with alert suspicion, but as he managed to edge about and get a look at the sketch the girl was making of Marlska, he approved, and from that first day he had championed the cause of the "Nickel Lady," as they all named her. One evening he met her on Second avenue In the rain. There are degrees of social status about Stuyvesant 5quare that are quite as peculiar and as rigidly drawn as those around Washington square. Along Its far western and northern boundaries it Is exclusive and undemonstrative, but the park itself on either side Is flowerbed of youngsters on summer "bunch." They did not know his name, only that twice whjsn there had been accidents in the neighborhood he had "been on the Job," as Stubs said, and had saved the liver of two of their playmates. Therefore Stubs honored him and when the "Nickel Lady" hesitated laughingly as the rain beat down upon her, and before he would stop her. had slipped across the street under the very wheels of the huge gray mail car, the first thing he thought of was the "White Doctor." He stuck by her when the crowd gathered, and It was he, too. who got Bandy Moran and Chlch to carry her to the sidewalk where she lay still and white until Stubs led the way into the tailor shop, where he also had a "drag," as he expressed It, with Odiosky, the little calm-eyed owner. When the ambulance swung around j the corner and the "White Doctor" Jumped down. Stubs explained the situation to him briefly. "I'm her best friend around here." he said loftily. "Is she hurt much, Doc?" Skillfully Rex Fuller knelt beside the slender figure, making his exam ination. Stubs almost held his breath until he looked up with a little smile and nodded cheerfully. "Just shaken up and suffering from shock, old man." he told him. "What's her name and where does j she live?" Stubs scratched his head doubtfully. He didn't know. Neither did Mariska. nor Banty. nor any of the "bunch" j hanging around mournfully. She was Just the "Nickel Lady." So they took her up to the hospital, and Stubs made his arrangement with the doctor to visit her as her "nearest friend." That night when she lay conscious for the first time. Rex waited until the nurse had gone" down the ward, before he asked her the necessary questions to fill in her card. Not a word about Stubs and all lie had told him of her. of the nickels she gave away, and the sketches she made of the square's youngsters. Her name was Phyllis Truax. she t..i.i Mm au- iiA u -i the day before she left she had anoth er visitor. He IM very confident Tvhen he first met her. but she sat with drooping lashes as he talked, and finally she said something to him. and after he had cone she smiled at Jlex somewhat anxiously. '"I'm a. nerfert fraud, doctor." she Rnid "Von won't care for me a bit e,nv more. or Stubs or Mariska or any- I body.' I'm not just stray artist stranded in New York. I'm a regular i person with a home and family and plenty or money, ana i. ve just, rcmseu half a million more. I'm afraid I'm spoiled for that sort of thing. You've been so wonderful to me up here. I think I'll be a nurse." "You will not." he told her sternly. "In the first place you're not strong enough to train, and in the second I promised Stubs to look after you. If you had net known that I would, why did you send away the half a million chap Stubs was on his way to visit her, with" two larse straggly red carnations '.ions of dollars. And this is what he said: "I consider it a supreme test of Boot management never to forget fun- damentals." And he believed that a firm should stick to the line that had made it successful.

"Zr3r SANDRA THE JEALOUS By JANE PHELPS SANDRA HAS A HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAPTER XXXII. I made no reply to Barrett Edmonds when he spoke about bringing flowers had he known it was my birthday. Suddenly It had crossed my mind that perhaps Everett would not like it that he had called. It made me feel awkward and almost embarrassed for a moment. But as soon as he had placed some music on the piano and I had commenced trying it, I forgot everything but the pleasure of having him with me, and the music. We sang together for about an hour. Trying a verse of one song then of another, I felt quite ashamed of my little almost uncultivated voice when I first heard him, but he was so kind, and said such nice, honest-sounding things to me. that I forgot all about my embarrassment and sang just as I would have done for dad or the home boys. "Your voice is delicious." Barrett fcaid when we had stopped and he was going. "You sing as naturally as a bird. If you will let me come and join you occasionally I shall be de lighted." "So shall I!" was my answer, given so heartily that I blushed and he looked pleased. I rather dreaded telling Everett that he had called. Not that I had the slightest feeling that I had done any thing wrong, but because I did not know Everett's wishes In the matter. I almost wished I had told him that Barrett had asked to call I already thought of him as "Barrett" it would be awful now to tell him he couldn't come again. Not the slightest Idea of going against my husband's commands had occurred to me. In this as in everything I should do as he said I would have to. But Everett had been so kind In the morning, and It was my birthday. Perhaps he would be nice because of that. I dressed carefully before he came. He liked me always to dress for dinner, and when we were going to the play or the opera I always dressed for the evening before we dined. I wore a dress he particularly liked and my new bracelet, as well as the diamond and sapphire one. When he camo in he complimented me, and kissed me. I told him I should have worn the bond pinned on my dress had I not been afraid I would lose it. "I have had such a nice day," I said following him up stairs. "What have you been doing?" "I wrote letters all the morning. You see if I didn't write both boys separately they are Jealous. Then I had my luncheon, and started one of my new books. Then about 3 o'clock Mr. Edmonds called. I almost missed him. I was Just thinking I would go out for a ride. And" "You had not known he was com ing?" "No," I answered truthfully, "but he had manaeed to bargain for. but jwhen he caught sight of the "White I Doctor" bending over the "Nickel I Lady." with unmistakable proprletor ship, he stopped and turned his back, i At least he knew when It was time to umpire the game over to the winner.

He said he made a "big noise' occasionally he sings wonderfully and asked if he might drop In some afternoon with his music. I had al most forgotten It when he appeared todav. But wo tried over the music he brought for about an hour, then he went awav. Then I came right up stairs and dressed. So you se; I have have a busy and a very nice daiu" Yes 1 see." I didn't like Ever ett's tone, but 1 waited. I had hur ried thru the story of the day try ing to avoid laying specltl emphasis on Bsrrett Edmonds's call. I did it quite unconsciously at the time. But it must have shown Everett that I had not planned to do anything with out telling hlni or perhaps it would be better to say, "asking his permis sion." However It was. he sail nothing more, but proceeded to dress. It was not until I heaad i cryptic remark he made long; afterward that I was able to understand his attitude on my eighteenth birthday concerning Bar rett Edmonds's call. I overhfard him say: "Often by making a thlnf take on prominence, you put thoughts Into the heads of Immature people which never would have otherwise come to them." He must have thought that If he said I shouldn't receive Barrett Ed monds, a man whom his friends knew and received, he would make me ask questions, and perhaps attach more Importance to Barrett's call than It really deserved. I was gradually learning to keep still when Everett was inclined to be gracious; not to worry him hi' talk ing or questions. So now I left him alone to finish dressing. "I will read until you are ready," I said, raising my face for another kiss. "You have only kissed me twice. You owe me 16 more," I said laughingly, then was so astonished I couldn't speak when he crushed me In his arms, and gave me many mora than sixteen, I am sure. I felt awfully embarrassed. It was almost as if some stranger had kissed me so fiercely. I ran from the room declaring I should have to rearrange my toilet Instead of reading, because he had mussed me so. When we sat down at the table half an hour later I understood the mysterious looks which had passed between Mrs. Gray and Betty. A love ly birthday cake with eighteen can dles graced the center of the table. And they had trimmed the cloth with smilax, making it look Just like a party. So I told them, to their de light, and Everett's arrrusement. But it wss nice in them; and made me very happy. (Tomorrow Matchmaking. HEART AND BEAUTY PROBLEMS BY MRS BUZABBTH TUOKPSOK.

DOROTHY DIX TALKS ,BT DOROTHY DIX Wei-Id's Highest Paid Woman Wttr. Women's Imagination. 1 A Judge recently granted a new trial to a men on the ground thnt the ac cused was entitled to a rehearing of his case because he had been con victed on the evidence of women. This blow Is enough to- kill mother, but his honor softened it by saying that altho woman's testimony on the witness stand wasn't worth a hill of beans as testimony, woman had, in reality, a higher moral sense than man. The only reason that she didn't tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth on the witness stand was because the exuberance of the feminine imagination preventea her from being able to distinguish be tween fact and fiction; Little as those of us who are strong for the equality of the sexes, like to admit this, there is a certain degree) of truth in the Judge's contention. It must be admitted that, as a general thing, women haven't the faculty of seeing things straight. They see things upside down, or topsy-turvy, or cut on the bias and shirred In the middle, or like they want them to be. or like they should have been to be property thrilling and dramatic. This may disqualify them for being star witnesses In a murder trial, but it is what gives the salt and savor to ordinary every-day life, and enables us to endure it. Therefore, a lively imagination in good working order is not a drawback to a woman. It Is her chief charm, and her most desirable asset, and she is to be congratulated upon possessing It. One shudders to contemplate how dull society would become. If women were as unimaginative as men and stuck as close to the literal facts. Conversation would degenerate Into a series of grunts, because there would be nothing interesting to tell, and nothing anyone cared to hear. People meet together in social Inter course to relate fairy stories concern ing themselves and others, and to indulge in surmises about their neigh bors. It is our favorite Indoor sport But how little we should have to say, what yawning abysses of deadly si lence there would be If we only told the things we really know. Just exact ly as they happened! a umLIL "ovt rullty of this fault. They fetch out their Imagina tions and sew a few fancy stitches of embroidery, and lo. they have turned the most prosaic of situations Into a romance or a scandal that makes us thrill with interest and excitement A man. for Instance, will see a mar ried woman and a handsome young fellow sitting together under the palms at a ball, and It Is simply a couple of people, and a shrub to him. and noth ing more. A woman sees the same couple, and the same palm out of the corner of her eyes, and she beholds In It a three volume novel full of mis understanding, and broken hearts, and elopments or else noble self-abnegation and divorce, or a secret sor row nobly born.

A rather tense situation has arisen among the commissioners over the po sition of electrical Inspector following the resignation of "Tommy" Martin after his failure to get a satisfactory increase in salary. Commissioner Stanfield stated this morning that the office of electrical inspector should be placed under the fire chief in the mayor's department on account of the main feature of the work being with a riew to Hre pro tection. Shortly after Stanfield open ed this discussion it was moved that the meeting adjourn until Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Work Oil Ordinance. At that time It la practically certain an ordinance will be Introduced for first reading changing the office of electrical inapector to the mayor's de partment. An emergency nuicht be declared and the measure put thru at once for the city ia without an in spector at present. Commissioner Wesson had prom ised to Increase Martin's salary but did not name any specific amount of money. Martin probably handed in his resignation with the idea of getting definite results in a satisfactory way or leaving the Job. The methods of each in approaching the question gave rise to a general misunderstanding out of which the present controversy arose orsr their Inability to get to gether. In the meantime other outside In terests who wished to see Martin re main on the Job took a hand and en deavored to influence the commission ers to make the raise sufficient to keep him in the service.

In the days before motor trucks came into general use, his progress was measured, not by his vision, initiative or merchandizing ability, but by the speed and endurance of horse flesh. With the automobile and truck came a constandy widening field of activity quicker deliveries were pos sible. A widened service meant more and better satisfied customers and the merchant was able to expand his business to the utmost. The Standard Oil Company (Indi ana) has been an important factor in making this expansion possible. By anticipating the demands for gasoline and lubricating oil, it was prepared to supply these necessary products to merchants, even in remote places. Further, the very feature of wide distribution and low price of gasoline has enabled the srnall merchant to utilize power-driven delivery. Thus has the Standard Oil Com pany (Indiana) been an important factor in the expansion of business by helping the little" merchant to be come big, and the people in remote corners to have the advantages of cities. How well the Company has func tioned may be judged by its size, for no concern could nave reached the proportions of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) without render ing an important and definite service to the public Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 10 So, m.

Washington. Sept. 2. A law to pro hibit strikes or lockouts of railroad fmployps and thus protect the public frm transportation tteups was advo rnted by Senator Robinson, Democrat, of Arkansas, In an address today In the senate. "The time has come," he said, "when concress must protect the public against loss of life and property and widespread suffering which will inev itably result If the railroads should be tied up by a general strike. The right to strike has heretofore been recognized In our laws, particularly In certain provisions of the Clayton act. Those laws should be modified and strikes of employes on railroads en gaged in interstate commerce should be forbidden." Senator Robinson's address was In analysis and commendation of the bill by Senator Cummins. Republican of Iowa, drafted by the senate interstate commerce sub-committee. The Cum mins bill, according to Robinson who was a member of the drafting sub committee, amply protects the rights of employes employers and the public. "While the right of the laborers to quit employment for any reason Is recognized and preserved (in the bill)", said Senator Robinson, "com binations or agreement to hinder, re strain or prevent the movement of commodities or persons In Interstate commerce or agreements which have that effect are likewise penalized. "The provision by law of a fair tri bunal to settle disputes between rail roads and their employes is, of course, a prerequisite in any plan fairly cal culated to relieve the country from the menace of strikes and lockouts that will restrain or prevent interstate commerce. It is indispensable to the comfort and life of our people that commerce be continued and no sys tem which leaves commerce subject to the will of individuals or organization among them can be Justified."

So-called American citizens advo cating revolution, bloodshed and sabo tage in their own country may prove to be the fellows who pleaded for ex emption in the draft on the grounds of conscientious objections or some other subterfuge, according to a state ment appearing in a letter received to day by Mrs. Mary E. Chapln. clerk of the district court, from the chief of the government naturalization bureau. The government in thia letter asks Mra. Chapln, as clerk of the local nat uralization board, to examine the draft cards of those who have applied for naturalization and ascertain if they demanded exemption, and. if so, upon what grounds. The letter also quotes a statement made in the United States senate by Senator Knute Nelson. It follows: "It is a significant fact that almost without exception the persons who are 1 advocating revolution and violence and all of the suffering, pain and j bloodshed incident to such a move ment have during the great struggle I of the past two years undertaken to handicap, check and obstruct in every I way possible the military operations I of this country under the pretext that their conscience would not permit them to .take the life of their lellow men even in war.

DANGEROUS, SAYS L.EXROOT Wisconsin Senator Opposes Both U. S. anil Private Rail Ownership. Washington. Sept. 2. Government operation of railroads and unrestricted private operation are filled with "dan ger," Senator Lenroot Wisconsin, warned today in a statement explain ing the bill he recently introduced. "We cannot afford to fix upon a policy which will result In the crea tion of a vast political machine as would be the result of either the Plumb plan or any other form of gov ernment ownership," L.enroot said. "Xor can we afford to- hand over to private management the transporta tion of the country in a manner which would enable promoters and bankers to enrich themselves. Operation of a public utility employing two million or more people by the government is too filled with danger to risk adopting that as a settled policy. The same can be said of government ownership and private operation." Lenroot is for strict regulation of finances and operation of the railroads by a board composed of representa tives of all Interests, including the public. e O id O H t3 Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair X 03 If you want to keep your hair In I good condition, be careful ,what you wash It with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and i is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and en- I tlrely greaselesa). is much better than anything else you can use for sham- I pooing. as this can't possibly Injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two tea. spoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easi.y. and removes every parcle of dust. dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man age. Tou can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at most any drug store. It Is very' cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months. Advertisement.

He stated it has been shown that the melting pot Idea la wrong. He compared conditiona in the United Sbites with Tflose in Rome shortly be fore the fall of the Roman empire. Rome had become a melting pot. There were no Roman citizens left. The entrance of the blood of other races had wiped out the true Roman. Dean says that Is What this country is approaching if the lax- emigration laws are permitted. Conditions In N. Y. As an example he mentioned con ditions as he observed them in. New York where In many parts of the city there were large districts in which the English language was never spoken.

The civil wnr w fone-ht for the maintenance of this country as a union. The late great war was entered into to protect the rights of American citizens and preserve the liberty for which this country stood.

Every golfer should learn the printed rules of golf etiquette by heart. They should be his spiritual reading- and no golfer should step on a tee without knowing these rules of conduct. Golf etiquette aims to regu late one's conduct toward one's fellow players and a knowledge of it will help us to see ourselves as other golfers see us. Agreeable companionship on the inks is one of the great attractions of golf, indeed a famous go'fer has said that compan ionship is the chief joy of the game. Iook around you at any club and you will see that the man who fre quently disregards the etiquette of the game has few in. vitatlons to play with the more de sirable players, for there is no surer way to lose popu larity than selfish violation of the rights o f others. Try not to earn this unpopularity. Talking and moving when a player I is about to drive is a serious offense, and so is standing within a player's line of vision. Keep a good distance awav, Replacing divots is a rule to be faithfully lived up to. When several matches are on the I fairway, singles, foursomes, etc., the player farthest away (technically des ignated "away") invariably plays first. The single match has the right of way, but if a single is not going any faster I hi. U r .1 n I than a foursome it should not in courtesy ask to go thru. Golf eti quette is a series of rules plus com mon sense. I J.hink a player should always help look for a ball. I think it should be assumed that the least that can be asked of any one is that he follow the written rules, but there are many unwritten rules, the observance of which classes a man as an honest sportsman and a gentleman. Watch yourself for annoying man nerisms. I remember I once took a great dislike to a golfer who had the habit of coming over to his opponent's ball and thus making his presence un pleasantly "felt." Don't practice putts when those behind are wuting to play up. A man should not take many practice swings for the benefit of his own game and at the expense of his partner's patience. The proper spirit of golf shows itself in a scrupulous re gard for every right of your opponent There Is such a thing, too, as insist ing too much upon one's own rights. Altho golf is not golf If not played ac cording to the rules, the average player should avoid the manners &f a schoolmaster on the links. Rules should be enforced by officials. In all the years I have been playing golf I have never called a hole, or stroke, on any one thru a technicality. I have no desire to win except by actual strokes. As a consequence, I have lost many Important matches, but I feel that I have pained much of more im portance. To my way of thinking, it is better to give your opponent a little more than he has a right to ask. Summed up. golf etiquette is regard for the other fellow. It means avoid ing offence, being not unduly de pressed over ill fortune, or puffed up over good. "And If you fall, or if you rise.

Confidence 'in their ability to win by the knockout roue was expressed today by both Joe Beckett, British heavyweight champion and Eddie McQoorty, Amer ican battler, who meet tonight in a' 20 round bout at the Olympia. The twenty round setto between the French Bantam champion, Charles Le- doux, and Walter Ross. British cham- pion, was called off, It was announced this morning. It seemed today that McGoorty J would be unable to make more than 165 pounds, while Beckett will enter the ring weighing about 184 pounds.; Betting was lively with the cham- i pion a favorite. McGoorty's backers j were playing him on the form he showed recently in knocking out Har ry Rolph and Harry Reeve, British heavyweights. The dope also figured that the American's speed and ring generalship would balance the weight handicap. Beckett expressed the utmost confi dence and announced his intentio.i of taking on the French champion, Georges Carpentier, next and then making a bid for the world's title in a battle with Jack Dempeey. t Fred Fultcn, the American plas terer, predicted he would knock out Arthur Townley, British light heavy weight in five rounds. They are scheduled to go ten rounds in a pre liminary. Greb Rushes Smith Off His Feet. Youngstown, O., ,Sept. 2. Harry Greb. Pittsburgh, defeated Jeff Smith. Eayonne, N.

If you own shares in a business do you want a Government employe to tell your executives how to run your business? If you are a loyal employe, do you want a political appointee to have the power to injure your concern by hamper ing its operations or by interfering with its efficiency? Perhaps you have noticed the effect of Government control on the railroads, telegraph, and telephone. Bills have been introduced to license and regulate the packing industry perhaps your business will be next. You would -probably dislike to have this happen to your business even more than you would dislike to have your daily supply of meat interfered with. 1 Baa s 1 Hi Swift Company, U. S.
