The Evening Newspaper of Kansas WEATHER FORECAST tor Kansas: Fair and continued cold tonight and Thursday HOME EDITION TOPEKA, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY EVENING,; JANUARY 21, 1920 -TEN PAGES FOUR CENTS 5 CASES FLU HERE First Reappearance of Disease Found in Topeka. Citizens Warned To Be Careful and "ot to Worry. STATE SENDS OUT BULLETIN Looks Like Another Epidemic. Dr. S. J. Crumbine Reports, City Board of Health Gives Out Precautions to Public, Five cases of influenza what may h the start of an epidemic here were reported in Topeka today, according to Dr. Karle G. Brown, city health officer. Two other suspected caaes also were reported. The five cases are all in one family. Thty are a mild form of flu. accord ing to the attending physician.. Doctor Brown issued a warning to the people, urging them to take all po.ssi hie precau tion a gainst contract ing the disease and spreading the germs. He also urjred the people not to worry, however, saying that Topeka might escape an influenza epidemic and that it was the opinion of medical authorities that the disease was not of such a severe nature as it. was before. "Don't worry yourself sick,' was his admonition. His statement may be found in an other column of this issue of The fetate Journal. Kstablish Rigid Quarantine. A rigid quarantine of all flu cases will be instituted by the public health department, Robert D. McGiffert, health commissioner, declared today. "While it may work a temporary hardship on the members of families where flu is present," he said, 4it is the only means of preventing spread Tf the disease. It will be easier to suffer quarantine now than more drastic restrictions lafer, such as the prohibition of all public gatherings that had to be resorted to during the last 'epidemic." No specific steps have been taken by the city for an organized fight against the epidemic, if it comes, but the city hall Is waking up to the dan gers and does not want to be caught napping, as was the case during the other epidemic. Mayor Herbert J. Corwine said the city would find some way to meet such an emergency. The city probably would have to call on the general fund to fight the disease, hh the emergency fund is getting low. It is expected that the co-operation of the various welfare organizations, such as the Red Cross, would be so licited. They bore a great share of the burden during the 1918-19 epi- C rum bine Sees Epidemic. Kansas in in for another epidemic of influenza. Dr. S. J. Crumbine. sec retary of the state board of health, predicted today. "I do not see how we can escape an epidemic of influenza," the health chief stated when he was asked if he thought that the disease which is raging in Chicago and the Great Lakes region will spread to this state. "I have been informed that a slight epi demic has broken out in Kansas City, but as yet flu has not been officially reported to bur department in epi demic form. Isolated cases have been reported every week since the epi demic in 1918." An epidemic was reported in Shaw nee county today by Dr. A. L. Golight ly of Auburn. There were 49 cases in that vicinity last night and one or two new patients were reported this morn ing. Some of these cases are severe, but in others the patients-are on the road to recovery. No pneumonia has been noticed in connection with the outbreak, A land excursion to Texas is blamed by Doctor Golightly for im porting the flu germ to' Shawnee. Dances and meetings helped to spread the disease, but Doctor Golightly be lieves the present cases are well quar antined and 'that there is no serious likelihood that the epidemic will spread. The present epidemic ex tends for a radius of seven miles north and southwest of Auburn. Kmporta, Jan. 21. Fifty cases of Influenza have been reported at Olpe, eight miles southeast of Emporia. All the cases are mild and the epidemic is not expected to spread. Olpe has a population of about 500. Letter to Health Officers. Following is a copy of a letter sent to health officers of the state by Doc tor Crumbine: According to press reports. Influenza tn epidemic form i cgnin ravaging Spain, Jupnn and I'olnnd and tins suddenly ap peared at the (Trent. Lnfces naval training station, rapidly spreading to Chicago, where tt la now claiming a large number of victims dally. It neeins probable that tue country cannot hope to escape another enldemlc of this hiehlv comrounlrabie dis ease vrith it attendant mortality from pneumonia or other complications. The extent of its ravages may, in a de gree, depend on our diligence In enforcing those laws and regulations that are In tended aa a bar and hindrance to Its spread. I dcairt. therefore, to again in vite yonr attention to quarantine provi tdon for influenza and the necessity of reports of all casea occurring in their practice. Outbreaks epidemic in character should be reported to this office by wire. You are requested to enforce at once and without fail, the state board's regulation requiring the actual uteri llaation of all eat ing and drinking utensils used to serve food or drinks to the public. There Is abundant evidence to warrant the belief that one of the methods of transmission of this disease ix that of "hand to mouth Infection. Therefore, we must leave noth ing undone that will contribute to "a sev ering of that line of communication." In the Pbaem-e of definite knowledge of the canse of influenza, the use of vac cines to prevent the disease cannot he re lied on. but it would aeeui to be the part of wisdom to make an effort to secure Immunity agslnst the most fatal compli cation of Influenza pneumonia. The use of mixed vacrlnes designed for that pur noKe, put out by reputable biological houses under t government Inspection, should therefore be encouraged. It la suggested that a survey or Inven tory oe Diane or an avaiianie resourx-ea In you county and in cities of the first and second class, which nhouid Include the number of nursen available fnr Influenza nurxing: hospitals or building that might be readily converted Into emergency hos pitals; hospital supplies; motor transporta tion: canteen supplies, etc. A detailed memorandum of auch inventory should be mai)ei to this department at the earliest losible diite. This 1a a matter of urgent importance May we expect yonr whole-hearted re operation la this propram of preparedness? S. J. CKUMB1.NE. M. I). Life saved I5y l wins rinn Says Physician A Tit Tar. 91 TVl liffl Of Mrs. Edward Wels was probably saved Dy ner giving uinu w vwwia, ac cording to Dr. O. S. Parker here to day. Mrs. Weis was near death from in fluenza. Doctor "Parker said he had given up all hope of saving her when she gave birth to twins. Since that time she has steadily improved. "The birth of the babies saved Mrs. Wels's life," Doctor Parker said, "by removing much of the poison from her system." MAY -AGREE SOON Members Industrial Court Con ference Getting Together. All Except Two Provisions of Labor Bill Out of Way. Members of the Industrial court conference committee have agreed upon provisions of all except two sec tions of the new labor tribunal enact ment. It is probable that an agree ment will be reached late this after noon or tonight and both houses may adopt the report Thursday. In event some of tho provisions in the bill can not be adjusted, a bill covering dis puted subjects may be presented. Sections three and fourteen are the troublesome' provisions of the bill. Section three includes the disputed Simpson amendment affecting price regulation of food products and food stuffs by the new court. Should the Simpson amendment be drawn from the bill by the conference committee, j a new bill is expected to be presented putting mills, packing houses and similar essential industries under jurisdiction of the new court. Simp son will not oppose such action, but has support of house farmer members in demanding this course as a substi tute. The Freeman amendment barring closed shops seems doomed to fall by the wayside. The McDermott amend ment against sympathy strikes and the Harvey amendment providing that the new court shall review contracts between labor and industry before they become effective, may stay in the bill. Otherwise the senate pro visions will prevail. "I believe we can get together late I this afternoon or tonight," said Tom Harley of Douglas county, head of the house conferees. "As soon as sections three and fourteen are agreed upon we will be ready to report." R. H. ALLISON IS NAMED Illinois' Man Made Assistant General Manager for Santa Ue Here. R. H. Allison,- superintendent of the Illinois division, Chillicothe, has been appointed assistant general manager of the eastern district of the Santa Fe eastern lines, succeeding the late Edward Raymond, it was announced today by F.

FUNDS BILL READY Legislature Probably Will Ap propriate $278,484.97. 3few Industrial Court to 3feces sltate About 135,000. HOPKINS'S REQUEST IS DENIED Governor's Office Becelyes Only Material Increase. Bonus of $50 to Guardsmen Is Also Denied. Appropriations totalling J278.484.97 will probably be made by the special session of the state legislature. A mis cellaneous appropriation bill, ready for the house hopper, calls for expen ditures amounting to $203,484.97. Final passage of the state free" em ployment bureau bill would call for $40,000, whil $35,000 will probably be added to public utilities commission appropriations for the new industrial court. Under the bill as originated by the ways and means committee the gov ernor's office receives the only ma terial benefits from increased appro priations. An appropriation of $1,200 for the secretary of state's office is ap proved. But other budget proposals are eliminated. Richard J. Hopkins, attorney gen eral, asked for a big appropriation. The bill which will go before the legis lature makes no provision for the de partment. Hopkins's contingent fund is exhausted and nearly $7,000 from the bridge trust investigating fund has been used for payment of current ex penses. Hopkins s new appropriation under the 1919 enactment is not avail able until after June 30. Money to Institutions. Appropriations are provided for several state institutions, including the Bovs' Industrial- school of Topeka. The school is allowed $13,500, of which $6,000 will be used for a new barn to replace the one destroyed by fire. Governor Allen's proposal for a $50 bonus for each of national guardsmen sent to the Pittsburg coal fields dur ing the strike was eliminated by the committee. An appropriation of $22.- 000 is provided for payment of ex penses of state operation of the mines and $50,000 Is provided for organiza tion of new national guard units and to replace funds used from the de partment during the strike. A total of $8,300 is allowed the governor's office. Of this sum $5,000 is for additional contingent fund with salaries for an assistant secretary and a pardon attorney until the 1921 ap propriations are available at the hands of the next legislature. The miscellaneous appropriations total $159,679.86, while claims and accounts amount to $1,805.11. Legis lative expenses for the special ses sion amount to $42,000. Table of Appropriations.

Little Romance on Road, Woman In hibitor in Topeka Asserts. One booth at the men's fashion show is in charge of a woman. Miss Burdette Bayne, representative of Abel Bach, Milwaukee, manufacturers of trunks, suitcases and other traveling equip ment. Miss Bayne is the only woman -in the United States who Is a member of the Apparel club, which has an organ ization in every state. According to her own statement, her firm is- the only one of iti kind in the world that is "miss-represented." For nine years Miss Bayne has been sellfng traveling equipment, and has not yet found her occupation monoto nous. A la Emma McChesney, she makes a comfortable corner for her self wherever she goes, and complains very little of the hardships of the "road." Nine years ago she objected strenuously to going on the road when her company was short of saleswomen and sent her out to sell goods, but now would not resume office work, she de clares. Questioned as to her opinion of Emma McChesney, Edna Ferber's typical saleswoman character,.. Miss Bayne replied. "I arreo and sympathize with Emma McChesney in nearly every thing, but there is little real romance in the life of a saleswoman, such as there was in the Emma McChesney stories. Romance for -the saleswoman must exi-t outside of her business life, or she, doesn't have any romance. It's a life of adventure, tho. and never loses its fascination for me." BE HITCHCOCK BOOM SOON. Nebraska Will Soon Have Three Presi dential Possibilities. Omaha, Neb., Jan. 21. A "Senator Hitchcock for President" boom will be launche-i soon, according to Democrats here today. A meeting of 100 Hitch cock Democrats has been called for Lincoln Thursday to consider the sena tor's candidacy. If the movement gets under way. Nebraska will have three presidential possibilities Bryan, Pershing and Hitchcock. SUES "TIPPING TRUST" FOR $25,000 SHE COLLECTED IN RESTAURANT AS CHECKER Miss Hannah S tires. In, two yars Misa Hannah Stires Kays she drew J25,42o in tips from prtrons of Chicago restaurants through ber pleasant smiles while a bat checker. All of this money she was forced to drop into a camouflaged iron bank. This money was collected by the "Chicago Tipping Trust," which had the checking concessions at the restaurants. Now she is suing the "trust" for the money. She names three men in ber suit and charges that they pay girls from $9 to $15 a week and compel the girls to turn over all tip money. IN A FASHION SHOW Men's Display of Kansas Ap parel Club at Auditorium. Closing Feature of Big; Cloth iers' ConvenUon Here. The style show and inspection of fashions in men's clothing, will oc cupy the entire program for today, the last day of the three-day conven tion in Topeka of th Kansas Retail Clothiers' association and the Kansas Apparel' club. Fifty-one booths have been arranged at the auditorium for the clothing display by the members of the Apparel club, representing many of the largest manufactures and job bers m the men's clothing industry, for the benefit of the visiting retailers. Live models will be used in display ing the new modes in masculine at tire, from the Juvenile to wearing ap parel for grandfather. The merchan dise has been cleverly arranged in the booths for the occasion and deco rations are unique. Today's style show will be the last jto be undertaken by the Apparel club, ftPPDriUn. tn n rlfr.linn at ISiAnav's meeting. There will be no style show at the 1921 convention. Reason for the action is that the members of the Apparel club feel the need of becom ing better acquainted with the retail ers and in order to do so must not i have the majority of their convention I time devoted to arranging the style show. They would prefer to attend the meetings of the retailers and study the retail man's need and condition. Prevent Increase In Prices. Strong efforts will be made by the clothing men to prevent increase in prices and to force them down, as res olutions to that effect were taken in Tuesday's session. Co-operation to the state and county fair price com mittees was pledged. Topeka retail clothiers entertained the visitors at a smoker at the audi torium last night. Tonight the mem bers of the Kansas Appairel club are to be hosts at a banquet for all cloth ing men. Largest Convention on Record. Those 'in charge of the convention are gratified by the large attendance H'ontiuDed on 2age Two.l 'Flu Precautions Issued By City Board of Health To Citizens of Topeka: During the summer of 1919 it was expected that there would be an epi demic of influenza during the fall and. winter. There was no definite reason for this prediction except the history of former records of epidemics of this nature. From September 26, 1918. to May 1. 1919, there were 5,758 cases of in- 1 fluenza reported to the city health department. Without doubt there were several nunarea cases of the dis ease that were not reported because of the fact that many of those sick did not have a physician'. From May 1. 1919, to December 31, 1919, there were twenty cases of influenza re ported. Two cases developed pneu monia while the remaining eighteen ran a comparative mild course. It Js not the intention of any pub licity issued from the health depart ment to scare the people about an influenza epidemic, but there is a pos sibility, because of the fact that there are a number of cases in Kansas City and cases already reported in Shaw nee county, that there may be some cases in- Topeka. It is to be hoped that this city will remain as free from 1 influenza the remaining months of the 'winter as it has been the first three (months. TO END SATURDAY a i t" Special Session Fixing Time for i. Final Adjournment. Membets Too Restless t Wait r f. Until Kansas Day.. Two more days of the special session of the Kansas legislature seem assured under action of the house which to day adopted a resolution to cease con sideration of all bills at midnight, Fri day. Should the resolution be ap proved by the senate the law makers will go home Saturday. Sine die ad journment would come Tuesday, January 27. v After five days' delay the house to day fixed a. time for adjournment. Four times the senate resolution to cease consideration of bills tonight was tabled. House members this morning spent a half hour in debate as to the time saying goodbye to Topeka. Un der the resolution as adopted, the house puts a lid on introduction of all bills Thursday, ceases debate and roil calls Friday at midnight and gives Governor Allen until next Tuesday night to approve or disapprove the action of the special session. It is probable that most of the legis lators will leave for home Friday night and Saturday if the senate acts favorably on the house resolution. A number of members, tho, will remain ia Topeka until f:er the Kansas Day club banquet next Thursday, January. 29. Several members sought to con tinue the sessions over the week end in view of the annual Republican ban quet. But a majority of the house members 'are becoming restless and voted to go home.. Pass Labor Bureau Bill Maybe. After a call of the house the lower legislative body today passed the sen ate state free employment bureau bill. The final vote was 65 to 40. But the fight is not ended. 'Frank L. Martin, of Reno county, served notice he would fight for a reconsideration. There was an abundance of opposi tion to the bill providing for the em ployment bureau and not all of the trouble came from the paved street members. During the call of the (Continued on Page two.) It is a well established fact that influenza is largely transmitted by secretions from the nose and throat, especially coughing and sneezing. There are no known absolute pre ventives against influenza, but there are well known precautions that all people may exercise: i 1. Cough and sneeze into a hand kerchief. 2. "Wash your hands thoroly befoT eating: 3. Take care of a little cold. It frequently is a forerunner of the flu. 4. Take plenty ofsleep and be sure there Is plenty of ventilation in the sleeping room. 5. Keep the bowels open, the feet warm and the head cool. 6. Dress comfortably. not too warmly, neither too scantily, 7. Sterilize the dishes. Do -not use warm water but boiling hot water to kill the germ. 8. Don't shake hands. It is very easy to transmit the germs from the mouth to the hand; consequently shaking hands transfers them from one hand to the other. 9. Don't worrp yourself sick. If you have a cold or are sick consult a physician and follow his directions. DR. EARL O. BROWN. City Health Officer. EXPECT RED DRIVE Terrific Offensiye by Bolshevik!: In Spring Imminent. j Attempt to Annihilate Poland as First ObjectiTe. BIGJRMY NOW 1H TRAINING Reds Have Men and Munitions Poland Desperate. Little Buffer State Has Only 137,000 Men 'Available. "Washington, Jan. 21. A terrific spring offensive by the Bolsheviki against the Poles is expected by mil itary experts here today. This drive, they believe, will be calculated to annihilate Poland as the butter state" between red Russia and the non-soviet nations of Europe, per mitting Trotsky's hordes to advance into them. Simultaneous with this offensive, military observers exDect the Bolshe viki will stage a major demonstration against India, which wiil force the British to divert their troops to that area and prevent them from interven ing In Kurope. In their plans the red leaders are believed to be counting on a "tired of war" spirit in England and other al lied countries which will prevent the people irom neartuy supporting their government In fighting the Bolsheviki. Lenine Is Preparing. According to information received by military authorities here today, the Polish army which could be thrown against the Bolsheviki totals 545.000 men. but most of them are without proper equipment. At present there. are 187,000 anti-Bolshevik troops. In cluding Poles and Baltic forces, on the front in west Russia. Unless aided by the allies, the Poles would not be able to equip any more men and Its un armed regiments would be worse than useless in a campaign. The army military intelligence serv ice estimated today that the red force now in the field on the Polish front is about 125,000 strong. But this is re garded as merely a shield or covering force. The main army of 250,000 is in the interior of soviet Russia in training. The Bolsheviki are believed to have large supplies of munitions left over from the vast stores held by the czar regime". The small arms fac tories in soviet Russia are reported to be turning out several million rounds of ammunition daily. ASK BONUS REFERENDUM. Put Pay for ex-Yanks Up to People In 1920 Election, Plan.! An attempt to put new life into the soldier bonus bill was made in com mittee rooms- today when a proposi tion to submit the bonus proposition to a vote of the people was presented. This action followed an adverse re port on the Snyder-Endres soldiet; bonus bill today by the senate judi ciary committee. The committee based its decision on a statute which does not permit the legislature to make any appropriation in excess of one million dollars unless in an emergency. Under the new plan now before' the Committee on state affairs, a proposi tion to vote a 6 hi million dollar bonus for the soldiers would be sub mitted at the 1920 election. The original appropriation asked was 3 s.i millions, but the authors of the bill state they have found the appropria tion must be doubled to make the $10 a month' proposition for all ex-soldicrs possible. WOULD BAR JAPANESE. Constitutional Amendment Resolution Is Introduced in Senate. Washington, Jan. 21. Senator Phe lan, California, today, introduced a resolution to amend the fourteenth amendment of the federal constitution so that Japanese born in the United States and its possessions cannot ob tain citizenship. Phelan pointed out that within a few years, under the present constitu tional provision, Japanese born tn Ha waii will control the territorial govern ment. The high birth rate of Japan ese in California is also a menace to the control of land by whites, he said. MORE QUAKES FELT BY MEX. Resumption of Eruptions and Dis asters Send Population Into Panic Mexico City, Jan. 21. More earth quake shocks have been felt in the states of Vera Cruz and Puebla, a dis patch from Vera Cruz said today, A slight eruption of the new volcano of San Miguel accompanied the earth quake shocks, the dispatch said.

Oklahoma Oil Fields Being Flooded by K. C. "Floaters." Tulsa, Okla., Jan. 21. Fake rumors of a 810 to $12 per day wage for roustabouts in the Oklahoma oil fields has attracted about sixty men each week for the past two months to drift here from Kansas City, according to W. J.

One amendment provides that actual pro ducers may accumulate their products. This follows provisions of the Kenyon bill in congress. Another amendment takes the power of instituting suits from county attorneys and places it in the hands of the attorney general alone. DELAY SHANTUNG RETURN Japanese Postpone Opening of Nego tiations With Chinese Government. Tokio, Jan. 21. Japan's decision regarding the return ot the -Shantung peninsula to China has been post poned, according to an Asahi report. The diplomatic advisory council, acting on- the advice of Toriklchl Obata, director of the political bureau of the foreign office, decided to post pone for the present the decision with regard to the settlement of the Shan tung question. The action of the Japanese govern men apparently means that nothing has been done in the way of opening negotiations with China for the set tlement of the disputed territory. MAKE A WILL THRIFT DAY. Provide Legacies Where You Want Them, Workers Urge. Thrift week workers today en deavored to impress upon Topekans the wisdom of making a will. The day is designated as "Make a Will Day." A death in a family has often re sulted law suits, contested legacies and the often unfair division of property. Estates are left in a tangled condition in the hands of persons who have not the faintest idea of how to untangle them, it was urged. The main point brought out today was that the making of a will usually pro vides that property goes where it is desired. Death is usually unexpected and the will provides preparedness against unforseen events. Topekans were warned against wills they had written themselves. It was Dointed out that a complete under standing of laws covering the subject was necessary before a win couia De drawn up that would stand a test. Thursday, "Thrift in Industry day," will be utilized by the committee V" impress upon citizens and workers that the keynote of present day In dustry Is service, a responsibility that cannot be shifted to others. The golden rule of Industry Is to conceive that no matter how small a task is. it is a part of the world's work and must be done. Ten points of the industrial creed follow: Earn all you 'can honestly. I'ut whole-hearted effort into work. Stay at the present Job until It is certain another Is better. Reek promotion by earnest application. Take a happy attitude toward work. Relieve In the work at hand. .Spend less than is earned. Keep faith with the man who writes the pay check. Treat fellow-workers as brothers in hon est toil. Roost the concern which gfres the chance to earn. The speaking program for Thurs day: 9 a. m. TVarien M. Crosby, J. B.

Wall St, New York. Jan. 21. STOCKS Irregular reactions from final prlcea of the firevtous session attended the early deul ngs on the stock exchange today. In such shares aa General Motors, Crucible steel, Mexican petroleum, American woolen and kindred Issues, reversals ranged from one to almost five points in the first half hour These were only partly balanced by frac tional adrancea th several of the shippings, sccondnry steela and food shnrea. Ralls held within their recent contracted limited and prominent mlscellaneo'js specialties were not msterlally changed. The mnrket became more apathetic and price changes increasingly irregular during the forenoon, any disposition on the part of tradera to extend yesterday's recoveries was checked by the further collapse of for eign exchange. The British rate fell to the greatest point -of Impairment ever reported at this center, and French, Italian and cev ernl of the less active continental remit fauces also made now low reeorSs. General Motors recovered most of Its early decline and some of the ateei Issues Improved nfi'er call loans opened at 6 per cent, the lowest renewal rate in several months. -Stagtiatrbn prevailed during the noon hour when trading was almost entirely re stricted to 100 share lota.

Director. Washing ton. I. It iyx save the present 50-cent dol lars you need not -worry; they will be worth double their present value and possibly four times what they will now buy. You may not see that time for some yeuj-s, but see It you will, and then you'll wish you had economized and put the savings In banks back in those days. With all the high cost there is the chance to cut out a lot of expenditure and sa.e Its equivalent In dollars which will some day buy considerably more than they buy now. The day of plenty is the day In which to save, and that day is now. It's hard, it's true, to step out of the line of spenders and over into the lineof economizers and savers, but it can be done i one will Just smother the burning desire to keep up appearances and be in the rush. A dollar in bank is worth two or more in appearances and it comes handy on a rainy day. All building records in the territory north of the Ohio and east of the Mis souri rivers were broken in 1919. Sta tistics show that contracts totaling $2,532,902,000 were awarded for eleven months ending December 1, 1919, or $700,973,000 more than In the corresponding period for 1918, the1 .previous high record. But it should not be forgotten that much of this In crease is due to higher cost of labor and material. A shortage of housing remains everywhere. Henry Ford, in his Dearborn Inde pendent, holds that: "There are too many men dickering In real estate and not enoush men digging in It. There are too many agitators, who do not work at 'all, telling these groups who cannot think for themselves that they lre to be commiserated because they have to work." Outside the ranks of the radical agitators little is heard these days of the danger to the people resulting from large accumulations of wealth. No wealthy .individual or group of capital ever nas threatened the peo ple with freezing or announced that the railroads would stop running. The menace of power harmfully used lies in another direction, and public opin ion is beginning to take cognizance of the fact. No more meritorious plan for han- dling the profiteering evil has yet ap peared than that offered by Fred Vol land of this city before the convention of clothing dealers. Mr. Voiland said: 'First catch your profiteer." When the case of The World vs. William Hohenzollern shall be called It may be necessary for the court to appoint a lawyer to take charge of the defense. It has been suggested that the tak ing of the Democrat national convention-to San Francisco was for the pur pose of boosting Hoover for the pres idency. He is a resident of Califor nia but the Sioux City Tribune is authority (or the statement that he is a Bull Moose in politics. This might prove to be an element of strength and then it might not, depending largely upon whom the Republicans nominate. All remember what General Sher man said -about war. Now there Is a growing impression that getting out of war is much the same thing. When the government undertook the management of the railways it was figured that a great saving could be had In. the matter of duplication and that a great many employes who held jobs as a result of railroad com petition could be dispensed with. Nevertheless, according to Senator Cummins, there are 200,000 more railway employes n,ow than in 1917. There are nearly 2,000.000 members in the various railroad brotherhoods and they ask that the government guarantee that their wages will be advanced In full proporttan to any increase in the cost of living. But, remarks the Los Angeles Times, there are 40,000,000 other men earning their living In the trades and crafts. Why should the government make a favored class out of every twentieth man and leave the nineteen to bustle for themselves? II. C. I DUE FOR A FALL. "American Goods and Foreign Mar kets," the publication of the Guaranty Trust company of New York devoted to foreign trade, says that "the pros pects at the beginning of the new year in this country are all for sustained Industrial activity, and for continued demands for capital on a large scale. The new records of turnover made last year and the shortage of both con sumption and capital -Roods which still obtains seem clearly to indicate it says, .that the present condition of large volumes of domestic and foreign unfilled orders will hold over for some time. Continuing, the bulletin says: Foreign trade statistics show that in all probability the value of the total exports for the year 1919 reached eight billion dollars; that of total "im ports, four billions. Of the eight bil lion dollars of exports, those to Europe accounted for more than five billions, or nearly two-thirds, of the four bil lions of imports, less than 800 mil lions, or one-fifth, came from Europe. Opinion is general that the year 1920 will see a marked reduction in exports asd an Increase in imports. The lat ter will be Influenced chiefly, perhaps, by the degree of improvement that is effected in European industry; the former by the same factor, by condi tions in the foreign exchange market, by the amount of financial aid extend ed to our European customers, and, not least, by the character of the serv ice rendered by our exporters, and the character and prices of their goods. The time is fast approaching when, with normal conditions of internation al commercial competition, American goods must, as of old, sell strictly on their merits, and not because buyers must have them at almost any cost; in other words, when a buyer's market will replace 'a seller's market. Herein lies the source of a reduc tion in the Cost of living. When ex ports have been reduced there will be more for home consumption. An In creased supply of necessaries results in a "buyer's market." In addition to this, immigration which has been resumed on a large scale, will Increase, the supply of un skilled labor, thereby lowering the cost of production. Wherl sellers be gin to seek buyers, Instead of buyers seeking sellers, as is now the case, and workers begin hunting for Jobs in stead of Jobs hunting for workers, prices will begin to fall and not ear lier, despite the activities of officials in attempts- to hunt down profiteers and government's efforts to reglate prices. Lifting of the embargo from Rus sian ports promises speedily to re lieve European pressure upon Amer ica for food. Russia is capable of do ing a large share of provisioning, the world and is reported to have immense stores of farm products in reserve awaiting shipment aboard. The open ing of her ports should speedily solve the high cost of living problem as far as it relates to food. HOW CITIES ARK BUILT. Under the caption "A 'Live City," the Oregon Journal devotes an edi torial article to the methods that have resulted In the upbuilding of Spokane. It Is here reproduced In the hope that it may afford some valuable sugges tion to Topeka and her Chamber of Commerce. v Street signs In Spokane are so placed tht they can be seen without a. telescope or without long and pa tient searcn. The big railroad trains run on tracks elevated above1 the street. Up there they call it V'grade separation." The arrangement costs millions, but what is money in the balances against congested trarnc and saved lives. Spokane .has six trunk railroads and a dozen branch lines. Under the name of the Spokane International, the Canadian Pacific enter the city from the north. During a single day 178 trains enter or leave the city. By Its network of lines Spokanne is connected with 54f cities and towns in adjacent territory. Forty years ago Spokane was a near wild. Harf a dozen log cabins, a couple .of frontier stores and a ferry were the only evidences of civilization. It has fourteen banks, and on Septem ber 12 last had deposits of $53,220, 725. and in 1918 a clearing house total of $421.55S.70. The change marks the transforma tion from a frontier trading post to a modern, finely appointed, beautifully architectured and busy city of 135,000 people. It is a city worth knowing about. It is a city that Is more than the stone and bricks and mortar and the people. It has a spirit, an enthusiasm, an op timism that makes It distinctive and unusual. In its unity it is very like Pendleton. Ore., only set in larger molds. It has co-operation and co ordination in its public activities to an accentuated degree. It team work is so perfect that Its endeavors are sel dom defeated. Spokane Is largely built on team work. Twenty-five years ago It began a freight rate fight. It was a struggle against established order, and estab lished order is a difficult thing to overthrow. Tet this far western city. by. keeping everlastingly at It. and by a team work that absolutely permitted of no division, has established a new principle in rate making that Is chare ing transportation geography thruout the nation. There is a popular theory In some cities. Portland among- them, that you must not oppose a railroad or it will do your city damage. -They never ac cepted that dactrine In Spokane. There, the people fought the established rail road rates, fought the lines from many standpoint, made them install elevated tracks and struggled with them in many ways: arsa the more they fought the roads the more roads came to Spo kane, the more concessions Spokane gained That city Is now a rreat railroad center with line, radiating In every direction with r h facilities that Spo kane is a jobbing center dolner wholesale business of S50.000.000 year.

When your comes exasperating:, beegme a rent profiteer yourself.

You can have the most attractive kind of 4 windows, fireplaces, large rooms, the most up-to-date baths, the most artis tic lighting fixtures, an electric refrig erating plant, dumb but expert wait ers, and even balconies and stairs. If you want to have a pleasant afternoon some time just get some blue prints and go over all the marvelous things that are available for apartment houses. Andthe nicest thing about it Is that you can get all these conven iences at a comparatively, low cost by making your tenants pay for them. Of course, you must have some cap ital to put into the enterprise your self, but it does not necessarily have to -oe mucn. ou can oorrow money with which to do most of the pay for that. Not lonir ago. for example, some tenants in a large, well-located apart ment house held an indignation meet ing to protest against the nefarious ways of the management. 'For one thing, the management was stingy with its coal, and for another it pro vided the most erratic and haughty sort of an elevator service. The ele vator moved only after 10 o'clock in the morning and before 10 o'clck at night; moreover, St moved only for the tenants in person guests of the ten ants were compelled to use the stair a "I simply cannot stand it any longer," declared the wife of a success ful advertising man, who believed she had heart trouble and was therefdre ,f St! flights of stairs to her apartment four nights in succession. "But what can we do?' demanded a lady osteopath, who was losing patients on account of the Independ ence of the elevator. "I'd like to be manager of this place for just about thirty minutes," said the wife of the advertising "manager darkly. "That elevator boy "Well, why don't you take over the management?" interrupted her hus band. "You have nothing else to do." "Why don't we all take over the management?" suggested a plump and prosperous-looking broker,' who was known to nave influential connections in Wall street. The tenants had never thought of it before, but now they perceived it to been found for beating therent profit be a great inspiration. Each had a I eer. and it is interesting to know that small sum of capital to invest, and the i anything so profitable and business broker assured them that the rest of like ah0"13 have ben discovered by a the money could be raised In Wall few dreamy, temperamental artists. street. "There s nothing phoney about a proposition of this kind," he said. "It'll be easy." Which subsequently proved to be the case. Two months later, the members of this indignation meeting: had become the landlords of the premises: were living In all the apartments with best exposures, and were renting; the other five suites at an increased rate of rent. They had to pay rent, too, but only enough to cover the Interest on the mortgage. Adding to this the 7 per cent interest they would have received from investing their capital e'sewhere, they were still getting their homes at a lower cost than if they had been paying private landlords: The ex penses of operating the building were met entirely by the rents of the new tenants, who were unlucky enough to be left out of the corporation. This is enly one of many recent in stances which show that the moder ately well-off and the wealthy do not enjoy being victims of profiteering any more than do the poor. Those who live In eleven-rooms and five baths suites do not care to pay ex orbitant prices for them any more than do those who live in. two and three room bathlesa tenements. The only difference is that they do not nave 10 oo it. uney nave discovered this thrifty means of circumventing It. The latest scheme for a co-operatively-owned apartment house, which is still in the form of blue-prints, is kpot some model dwellng for working yeopie, dui a regai palace, with all the elaborate appointments of royalty. It Is to be a sixteen-story structure, erected on one of tie most valuable sites in the city, with a large restau rant on the ground floor, which is to be conducted by a prominent restaura teur and is to furnish service to all the individual apartments in the build ing. For the families who prefer home cooking, there will be all of the latest labor-saving devices to help per form the work when the servant prob lem refuses to be solved even by the management. For It is announced that the management is to provide the chief cooks and bottle washers of each menage, altho the blue, prints show that the dishwashing will be done mostly by electricity. Refrigeration will also be accomplished by electric ity, so thJrt the tenants will not be troubled by the loud and Impatient knocks of icemen at their doors. In fact, they will not be bothered with the business of keeping ;house at all. They will have all the ease and com- tsTririnsri5inis The George Matthew Adams nsi5nsjrisnnnTsr OX NEVER BEING SATISFIED. Our achievements travel no further than our best desires. We can never be told too many times about the power back of our thoughts. What life is for us is large ly a matter of the attitude of mind which we have toward life. And our thoughts are what build this attitude to its healthiest state. We all get discouraged. I never knew anyone who did not. No really worthy worker Is ever satisfied with what he has done. So that, after all, it Is actually a srrttl tiiirn to' feel ft1cmticftt TiIk- satisfied but never disgruntled or albitter. For it is when we are honestly dissatisfied that the mind calls upon fort of it, while the management will have all of the responsibilities. Of course, they will have- the bother of hiring the management. This particular house is net to be built onthe mortgage system. The owners are to pay cash. They will live in two-thirds of the building, and rent the other third, which will provide an income of about $270,094 a'year. This amount will more than pay the run ning expenses or tne nouse, so that Lw"i b,ttiJ apartments for the interest on their investment, thus reducing their rent to about one-third of the usual price for such establishments, Altho so popular at present, the co operatively owned apartment house is not a new idea. More than forty years ago, a group of visionaries, noted for their irresponsibility and impractica bility, conceived the idea as the logical way to reduce their rent. It is hard to believe but even in those days the p,o.o rich were accepting their stations in life with much greater equanimity, and as usual it was the respectable middle class which was having the greatest battle with the housing prob lem. This battle was particularly difficult and irritating for the painters, musi cians and writers of the community, whose homes were also of necessity their workshops. The artist had to have his north light, and the writer and the musician had to have their quiet, and the children of both had to have an agreeable environment. So eventually, they got together and planned a sort of dreamy Utopia at least so it appeared to their contem- !Poraries), where each of them ha e tne kind of fc home he WJ wouid anted. and yet ail of th-m would pay for it. In other words, it would be co-operative. After much discussion, a group of them worked out the plans for such a home and decided to risk their sav ings fin it. They were to subscribe 50 per cent of the cost of the land and building, and the remainder was to be provided by mortgage. Each member was to receive stock in proportion to his Investment, which stock should en title him to a lease for approximately 100 years on a certain portion of the building. Those who invested the most money naturally secured the choicest locations. In addition to the space for their own suites, there was also space for rented apartments, the rent from these being relied upon to pay the operating costs, the interest on the wmirin-tne there were a few failures, the expert- ment proved successful, and since-then whole clusters of co-operative apart ments have sprung up in various parts of the city, In a strict sense, they-are not co operative, and the real co-operatives, including the Co-operative League of America, resent your calling them that. It would be more correct per haps to call them incorporated, be cause the co-operatives insist that no enterprise is truly co-operative unless the control Is shared -equally by all who share Its benefits. But whatever vou call them, these new apartment houses are satisfactorily solving the rent question for theirowners. They are the best method which has yet Questions Answers Q.

Wen you looked very hard at Miss Angell you saw she might have been pretty, if the shyness of her eyes had not concealed their sweetness and the dullness of her hair had not hidden Its softness and the wistful look about her mouth had not forbidden you to look at its pretty curves. When you had seen all this you saw-suddenly just how little Miss An gell would look in ten years when tne softness had changed to sharpness and Miss Angell would have become a "nd teacher." i Rut Miss Angell wasn't thinking just now of becoming a good teacher Kb was staring rignt tnru ine Kauur room with its prim little desks, right thru the wall with Its gay maps, into the manse at Brookline where Uncle Pete was sitting all alone. .Tnt because she.

This school with its hit. carefree girls., and Its older wn'men who bad taught too- long to care very much what happened to the Mrv Ane-ells all except Roberta. Right into the middle of Mary's thought came Roberta Hardy, the real Roberta. In a minute the room had ceased to be a sehoolroof and had be come the background for her glowing ptrson. She perched herself on the desk, which -was untnougt or; sire tossed off her hat and puT a warm hand on a cold red cheek, while her black eyes gleamed. "Been in here all the afternoon working?" she groaned in sympathj. "Oh. Angel, If you wouldn't be so goodl But whatever should I do with out you in this nunnery? Angel, I've got to tell you," she lowered her voice so that none of the curious maps could hear. "I'm going to marry!" "Marry!" repeated Miss Angell. "Oh. Roberta!" Her eyes glowed as tho it were she to be married, "So It is Joe, and you are going tc "You poor Innocent! No! Whoever heard of marrying a man you could have? I just saw him this afternoon.

And a voice, the kind that once you've heard it winds itself about your heart and squeezes it. After the service I put on my saintly expression and went up to him. I wonder if I couldn't help you.

"I'm going to have a sewing class Saturday mornings, perhaps you might "LJumped at the chance, not that I can sew a stitch." Mary Angell sat looking at the nar rator breathlessly. She loved her warm cheeks and her wiry black hair and her eyes that were darrk and dar ing and gay. "That's all," Roberta ended, "so I'm going to .marry him. It's very simple. I shall make a delightful j minister's wife, something new in that line. Damn, there's the dressing bell. See you later!" she caught up her hat and flew down the hail, her heels cllckclacking over the polish ed floors. And that was the beginning of It. The last bell had rung, the lights were out in the dormitory, except for the tiny gleam thtat peered thru Miss Angell's keyhole. Miss Angell was still working over a problem in arith metic. She never heard Roberta's light knock. "Working? Oh, Angel, you'll lose your beauty sleep!" Roberta laughed at a funny little thought of her own. "You've Bot to help me. Angel. I'm In an awful mess. You know the man-I'm-going-to-marry Mary Angell nod led and for some reason Jhe flushed all over her fair akin. "Yes, I've seen him when I've been walking with the children In the afternoons."

"But but "You've got to; besides that tire some Joe is coming up from home to morrow just to see me.' So that was how little Miss Angell came to be caught in the organ loft by the young assistant of the mission. "I wanted to thank you. Mirs Hardy, for playing. It was" he stopped, for instead of Roberta's self-assurance and daring black eyes, he found a girl with wide, dreaming eyes pf gray set In a white little face, who looked as tho she had been caught in the wickedest of crimes by the blush that went creep ing to her temples. "Why, you're the girl I've wanted that I've seen walking every afternoon up by the old highway." "I'm not a girl, I'm a teacher," -said Miss Angell, gravely. Then -she knew why it was 'that Roberta had said that the very devil lurked behind those eyes of the young St. Anthony. "Would the teacher play for me?" he asked very gently. Because she was verv ah v. Mart An gell turned back to the organ and be gan to play; it was so much easier than talking to this disconcerting young man. After she had played a few minutes, she forgot all about him. about everything in the world except her music and the things her music was saying. It had grown very dark in the ornn loft; the young assistant said, "Thank you." and helped her down from the high bench, and they stumbled to- gether down the steps into the dimness of the mission room. "I'm going to walk home with you." he said very firmly, "it's too dark for you to be out alone." It sent a strange thrill thru Mary The Woman Who Loved Earned A Modern By JANE ROBERTS APARTMENT-DWELL. I ING FRIENDS PITY HIM. Chapter If I had possessed half of Mary Ryan's tact I should not so fllppantly hav told Robert I would talk to him about a home when he earned seventy-five dollars a week. He had that week been raised to forty, so the seventy-five wtas exactly the amount of our combined earnings. It brought too plainly before him the fact that he must let me work until he could bring in as much as our combined efforts were doing. Robert was, aaw he hald told me, "a sociable animal," and his friends soon called upon us. Frank Weed and his wife Betty, and Carson Murphy and Jane, his wife, came to gether. They were gay. Jolly sort of people, just about our age, and I liked them at once. Altho to be per fectly honest therea-were times dur ing the evening when I felt a rank outsider. That was when they talk ed of their housekeeping. They told joyously of their mistakes when they first started; and what fun they had learning; what and how to cook.' It seemed they had both been almost as ignorant sis I. Jane Murphy had been a school teacher, and Betty Wood a private secretary in a bond house. "You must come up very soon, Mrs. Meredith, and let Betty show what she cam do. She has become a wonder In the cooking line." "Please, don't brag, Frank," his wife returned. "I might not be par ticularly successful you know I fall sometimes." "Never when I have been there!" Robert broke in, "Neither has Jane. The way you two girls buckled down and made good is wonderful. I never enjoyed food more In my life than I have at your homea" "Why don't you get a kitchen of your own. then?" Betty weed asKea saucily.' "I suppose you two want to get rich first and live like a Rocke feller or a Vanderbilt. But there's nothing in that waiting. I mean. It's more ftfn to do such things when one is young and happy. I sort of Imagine the edge Is taken off when one gets older." "And is unhappy? I see you ex pect we are soon to b miserable." her husband said with a pretended pout. So it was all the evening. They were so gay, so absolutely en-rapport with each other, that someway it seemed to make Robert and me appear almost strangers. They had so many little intimate things to talk about, while we after we had told of our wonderful week In the moun tainshad nothing in which we were Angell to be walking beside this tal1, fair man that she felp somehow as tho she knew: for she had never, known any men in her secluded life, from her school days to her teaching days. "It Isn't as If I don't know you," the young man was saying. "I've seen you every afternoon for a month, and I made up my mind he stopped. Mary Angell wanted to know very much, what he. had made up his mind to do. Then he went on: "So you live In Brookline? How strange! Do you know, my brother-in-law's cousin lives there, a very nice old lady. I must run down there to visit her. When are you going?" "I'm going .the next holidays in a week,'; Mary Angell said and her heart was beating very loud and she was afraid he could hear it. "May I come to see you then?" the young assistant asked. It was on the white stone steps of the school and Mary Angell said, "Yes" and felt she was saying a great deal more when she looked Into his eyes. He took her hand for a' moment and said. "Good-by until then." Tntil then." Mary Angell repeatd and her voice was just above a wnis per. Not until she reached the dormi tory, did she remember Roberta, Ro berta who -was her friend. Mary's face was pitiful; for friendship in Mary Anrrell's code was a sacred thh'S not to be marred. She would not go to Brookline next week. "Angel, whaVs the matter Ro berta flung open the door and pulled her across the threshold. But Mary was too wretched to see how excited Robert Wa. "Look, do you like it?" Robert held out a pin. frosted with pearls. "Of course I wouldn't accept It unless we were engaged!1 "Engaged!" breathed Mary Angell. and her face was suddenly white, so white that it looked as tho she would faint. "To Joe, of course, you silly! You never can tell whom you will marry. Little Miss Angell found herself sit ting on Robert's bed, crying as bit terly as tho her heart would break. Roberta was still puzzled when Msry Angell lifted a face radiant in- spite of tears, threw her arms ibjut her neck and cried, "I never was so hap py!" and ran out of the room. Miss Angell's eyes were all sweet ness, her hair blew about her face like thistledown and her mouth showed its prettiest curves, as she breathlessly climbed the stairs to her own room, saying to herself, "And it s just one more week!"

And I knew they also were sorry for him because I worked because all my time could not be devoted to him. ''You must come and see us," both women exclaimed at once, as they rose to go.

When a woman asks for advice about how to manage a husband she does not desire to be given a reliable recipe or "bossing" him. Not one wif In a' thousand would TSave her husband obey her. If she could, for by no one Is the hen-pecked man more despised than by the domestic tyrant who pecks him. No. By managing a husband woman merely means getting along with him without friction, getting him into his evening clothes and out to a party once a week without a scene, and generally getting what is coming to a wife without having to use a sandbag, or a jimmy to obtain it. And. more especially, she means working some sort of a conjure on him so that he will always see her surrounded by the romantic halo of a lady-love. Instead of In the prosaic attitude of a useful household con venience. Therefore the study of how to man age a husband is not only a proper one for wives, but one that shall be accounted unto them for merit, as Mr. Kipling would say. Especially by husbands, for undoubtedly it Is much more soothing to have our fur rubbed tho right way than the wrong, and pleasanter to be beguiled slong the pathway we would go than it Is to be prodded along it. The great original tip on this Im portant subject is that which the first woman whispered into the ear of her eldest daughter. She said: "Feed the brute." And Lilllth. or Eve, or whatever her name was, shook her coarse red hair out of her little eyes and smiling wisely passed over" the marrow bones, and the liver, and the tenderloin of the beast she had just slain to- her liege lord, and he grunted contentedly as he gnawed them, and stood his club up sgainst the cave wall, and thus was domestic diplomacy born Into the world. Aeons of time have elapsed since then, but it has not changed the mas culine stomach, nor Its relation to masculine psychology, nor tnsde less potent the ameliorating effects of a good meal on a man's disposition. When God made a man's tummy twice as big as his head, or his heart. He delivered him over into his wife's hands, and If she has not enough gumption to work her cinch for all it is worth it Is her own stupidity. The wise woman, however, never forgets that beauty may fade, and wit pall, but that a good dinner Is always a good dinner and draws a man as irresistibly as a magnet draws a needle. No superlative cook ever fig ures in the courts in the ranks of the deserted wives. No man who- can count on finding on his own table just the particular tld-bit that he most fancies, prepared just as likes It, be comes a-round-the-town-rounder, nor are all the ten commandments so potent In keeping a husband nailed to his own fireside of an evening as that gorged feeling, that makes one too heavy and satisfied to move in search of adventure. Observe, ladles, and you will see that all the Don Juans have, like Cas slus, a lean and hungry look. The fat men never figure as Lotharios, and affinities, and soul mates. Then realize that a wife's best aid in keep ing her husband Is her gas range, and act upon the knowledge. (Copyright. 191. b the Wheeler Syndicate inc.!

New Tork Jan. .21. -Collegiate nd amateur rowing dates for the coming season will be assigned at conferences of oarsmen associations to be beid here within the next few weeks it was learnejf today Owing to the possibil ity of considerable international com petition this summer, the arrangement of the customary regattas is one ofj unusual difficulty. Jt appears proba ble at present that the United States will be represented at both the Eng lish Henley and the Olympic Vowing championship. With these foreign invasions in view, local regatta dates must be schedule! to conform with the Euro pean events as far as possible. This is the task that confronts the officers of the various rowing- bodies, includ ing the inter-collegiate rowing asso ciation and the American rowing asso ciation which meet here next week. The sajne problem will be considered at the meeting at the national asso ciation of amateur oarsmen which holds its annual conference later. While it is realized that none of the varsity eights of the eastern colleges can compete atthe English Henley owing to the proximity of that event and the championship regattas of the iunlversity crews, the Olympic events are a magnet that is already proving a strong attraction for the oarsmen. Several college rowing authorities have expressed a willingness to permit their crews to continue training after the final inter-varsity races if the American Olympic committee will lend assistance in financing the trip to Bel gium.

To the Thrifty and Thirftless: Figures showing- the fate of any average 100 young men have been com piled by the American Bankers Association and are being distributed as a part of the national thrift week campaign for economy, which began Sat urday. The figures snow the status of all of the 100 at each decade, succeed ing, up to the age of 65 years. The men picked for the investigation were self-supporting men of good prospects. x At the age of 35 years, 10 years after the start was made: 35 have saved nothing, 40 possess moderate means, 10 are wealthy, 5 are dead. At the age of 45, 20 years after the start: 16 no longer self-supporting, but are dependent on relatives and friends, 65 are self:supporting but without resources, 3 are wealthy, 16 are dead. At the age of 55 years, 30 years after the start: 30 are dependent on children, relatives, etc.,. 46 are self-supporting -but without resources, 3 are in good circumstances, 1 is very wealthy, 20 are "dead. From the foregoing table, it would appear that the "prosperous per- iod" is the 10 years between the ages of 25 and 35. In our opinion the vast majority of men and women begin work before the age pf 20 and with reasonable care of health their usefulness and earn- ing capacity should steadily increase to at least the age of 45.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 21, 1920 TO MAKE HEW TRY Three Distinct Moves for Coin promise in Senate "ow. Bi-partisan Conference Fails to Iteaeh Agreement. Washington,- Jan. 21. Three new treaty compromise moves are in the making in the senate, where the best informed observers now have given up hope that the bi-partisan confer ences in Senator Lodges office will "get anywhere." This belief persisted today in spite of mysterious assurances by Lodge that the conferees had "agreed on something" at ynsterdays session. He would not divulge what the agree ment covers, but said it is not Article 10 or the Lenroot reservation on votinjf power. This leaves the Mon roe doctrine and Shantuntr. the other chief points of controversy and it was generally believed that If any thing was agreed on, it was Shantung. The three compromise moves which are to be tried when the failure of the Lodge conferences has been been demonstrated are: ."1 Mild rf frvniionlKt iropose to move tliat the trcniy e -nHeI up in tbe wnnte, to glv evcrbody who tins reservations an opportunity to offer them in open ses sion. Th in wotili involve reopening tbe whole trenty debute. Senator I'tnlerwool announced lie will sek a vote on his resolution for an offi cial conciliation committee Mating that Mich a committee t-ould at lenat poll the nfmitp and TTcKPUt conclusive evident as to tle poHHlbillty of a com prom ine. If the poll Hliowed no compromi.ie poHsible, the senate could then turn In earnest to Home other iiieiiHH of bringing about, officially, a state' of peace with Germany, Under wood said. .1 Senator King and other Democrats, with some Republicans, will circulate a round robin for a caucus of the treaty's friends, regardless of party. King's plan would get the HUpport of a dozen or less, senators predicted today, pointing out that It involves an insurrection by Democrats against Hitchcock's leadership and by Iie: publicans against Lodge. KOSKDALi:' TO VoTE OX BONDS. City Avails itself of Chance Given by State Legislature. Rosedale, Kan.. Jan. 21. Rosedale immediately will avail itself of the op portunity provided by the Kansas legislature in authorizing a special election to issue fconda for the pur chase ot a state hospital site. MayorS. H. Rennick today said: "As soon as the hiV becomes effec tive the council will order a special election on a $40,000 bond issue." The bill authorizing a bond issue has not yet been signed by Governor Alien, but he is said to favor it. PARKER IS NOMINATED. Democrats In I-ouislana Hold State Primary Today. New Orleans, Jan. 21. John M. Parker, of New Orleans, on the face of incomplete returns, was nominated for governor at the regular Democratic primary yesterday by a majority esti" mated at from 5.000 to 10,000.

The Topeka Coal Co. Office Elks Bldg. Phone 482 PASSES EIGHT BILLS Senate Speeds I p Today Following Prolonged Idleness. The senate today put its foot on the accelerator and in two short morning hours eight bills of local and general interest were passed on third reading. First, tbe Burdick stockyards bill, on special orders for 10 30 o'clock two mornings, was again put over un til tomorrow. Then ctme the deluge of local pets and general bflls. A bill forcing county commissioners to have all United States mail high ways inspected and repaired after an rains, snow storms or bad storms was passed.- This applies to all roads over which rural mail carriers travel. A bill providing for an increase of 25 a month in the salaries of bailiffs of the Shawnee county "district court was held over on account of a defective title. 1 Another measure creatine a third district court in Sedgwick county was passed. That makes two counties in Kansas with three divisions of the dis trict court, Wyandotte and Sedgwick. Ilcvlvo Haskell County Row. The Haskell county seat row was revived when a bill providing for a county seat election every two instead of five years came up for considera tion. -Uoerr of Pawnee stated that this measure had become a personal affair with him and its disposition by the upper house would establish in his mind whether he had as much In fluence in the senate as a strontr lobby which has been working to kill the mil. Senators in districts where county seat rows were impending objected strenuously. The bill was passed over and held its place on the calendar -to give Doerr time to prepare an amend ment which would straighten out the Haskell county row but at the same time would keep other counties from becoming involved in such disputes. The present county seat of Haskell county is Santa Fe, which isn't on the railroad. A fight is on to place the county seat at Sublette. Put Ban on Mescal. With old John Barleycorn no longer retaining any legal life in Kansas, new menaces, pellote and mescal, are threatening the health and morals of Indians on reservations. These drugs, which are claimed to be worse than the morphine and whisky habits, were legislated out of business by the senate today. A local bill to put the coroner of aedgwiclc county on a regular salary of $1,200 a year and to give him S cents mile for travel was passed, as was an insurance bill giving mutual companies a right to insure buildincs against nail damage. Other local bills concerning taxes in Wichita and Hutchinson and in western counties were passed in short oraer. Create Employment Bureau. Passage of a bill creatine a state free employment bureau with offiees in four cities in the state was the most important action of the senate Tues day afternoon. Sparks, Cherokee, en deavoied to kill the bill, declaring there were "too many chair warmers on state jobs now and he hired lots of hands and never had any trouble getting them." The bill passed tho by a vote of Zl to 9. Appropriations asked for the office were trimmed. nowever. xne 2U.00u demanded for the remainder of the fiscal year was cut to 10.000; the $30,000 demanded for the next year was reduced to $25,- uuo. The insurance bill, similar to the one killed in the lower house- in the morning, was passed. The measure amends an old statute under which any life insurance company that writes health and accident insurance, or double indemnity policies, is barred from the state. With one or two exceptions all old line companies now are writing this insurance. Approves Rosedale Bonds. Theremainder of the day's activities included passage of local measures messaged from the house to the sen ate. One gives Rosedale permission to vote $40,000 in bonds for purchase of additional grounds for the Bell Me morial hospital. Another provides for an increase in salaries or Kansas City, Kan., firemen. A third allows county commissioners to expend. $40,000 for county bridges without submitting the proposition to a vote of the people. The limit on townships is raised from $10,000 to $25,000. Another allows Wichita to vote terminal railroad aid bonds for the Anthony Northwestern.

FEARS FIRE AND ROPE Alleged Arkansas Riot Leader in To peka Jail Awaiting Extradition. TJeclaring that hanng or burning awaits him if he is returned to Elaine, Ark., where he is wanted on charges of murder and night riding in connec tion with the riots there last Septem ber, Robert Hill, negro, was today in the city Jail while officers are on their way from Arkansas to get him. Hill was arrested Tuesday in Kan sas City by Police Chief G. G. Hannan and brought to Topeka Tuesday after noon. He had just engaged" rooms in Kansas City at 326 North First street, after arriving from South Dakota. To day Chief Hannan received a telegram from Gov. Chas. H. Brough, of Arkan sas asking that Hill be held. A later wire said officers were on their way with requisition papers. The negro is 30 years old. He is said to have been one of the principal organizers of the Progressive Farmers' and Household union, which was al leged to be responsible for the rioting at Elaine three months ago. Six white men and many negroes were killed. Twelve of Hill's companions are in prison under death sentence, while fifty more are serving prison terms. Chief Hannan stated that Hill had been in the city before but succeeded in eluding the trap set for him. The description In the hands of the po lice, Hannan said, was erroneous, nor was an accurate description and pic ture sent until today. Hill was de scribed as being a classy dresser, but Hannan found him dressed like a common plantation hand. Among the local officers who worked on the case, beside the hief, are Morris Leonard, assistant chief; Clyde Tresner, chief of detectives; Sergt. William Long, George Frost and Ed Medeau.

Auto Parts Co, 50 J Quincy Phone 164S Declared She Didn't Love Him Two Weeks After Marriage. A letter she wrote to him two weeks after their marriage, telling him she no longer loved him was one of the chief elements that contributed to the court's decision against Mary A. Ford in her suit for divorce from James Ford, Jr., of Syracuse, Kan., heard in the second division before Judge George Whitcomb this morning. Ford was awarded tne aecree out was ordered to pay the costs. Mrs. Ford charged that he had iaiiea to provide a home for her for some time after their marriage, and that he then rented three rooms in an undesirable neighborhood near the railroad in Syracuse. Ford, it is claimed, has an interest in a $35,000 estate in Hamil ton county. Ford said he first met his wife at his sister's house in Syracuse, in July, 118. She was at that time a tele graph operator at Hartland. making $140 a month. Other meetings fol lowed and they were married Septem ber 14, 1919. She was prevailed upon to give up her job, she said. Shortly afterward. Ford declared, she left him and then wrote the letter, declaring hat she no longer loved him and did not wish to live with one lor wnom she had no affection, and that she was in love with another man. Un less he released her from her mar riage vow, the letter read, she would ask a divorce. Ford declared he went to see her several times but failed to effect a reconciliation, and then in serted an advertisement in three news papers declaring he would not be responsible for anv debts contracted by her. Mrs. Ford came to TopeUi and filed her case November 26, 1919. Ford was 20 years old and his wife 21 when they were married. tie charged that her statement that he had come between her and anotaer man was a mere pretense to get divorce and that she had contracted the marriage with him with the design of sharing in his property.

Charged With Attempting Offense Against a Girl, Fifteen. The trial of Warren Scott, charged with attempting to commit a statutory offense against Delia M. Anderson, a 15-year-old girl, began before a jury in the first division of the district court this morning. On the witness stand this morning the little girl, daughter of Charles An derson, a barber operating a shop un der the Reid hotel at Fourth and Kansas avenue, declared, that Scott had taken her to a room upstairs at 118 East Fifth street on the afternoon of November 9. The girl's father ad mitted that he had one day carried home a pair of stockings which Scott had given her as a present. According to testimony Scott bor rowed from a boy friend'who runs a restaurant at' 122 East. Fifth street the key to the room. George Tracy, a local pool hall employe, said he saw the couple ascend tle stairs and in formed the girl's stepmother, who called the police. Detectives George Frost and Augustin Alba found the pair in the room, they said. Testimony showed that a friendship had existed between Scott and the girl sometime prior to the event and that h frequently took her to Sunday school. On the witness stand Scott's wife said she visited Delia in the matron's room at police headquarters and asked if .lt was true that she had been to a room with Scott. "She said it was," declared Mrs. Scott, "and I asked her if he had harmed her. She said he had not." After the completion of the state's testimony, Elisha Scott, counsel for the defense, demurred to the evidence on the ground that the information charges an attempt to commm statutory crime and that such is im possible. The motion was. overruled. DECIDE MATRIMONIAL INCOME. Elliott Extends Family Budget Contest to Saturday Evening.

Minds Regarding Amending Ancient Measure. House members late this afternoon passed the "insurance .bill. The measure, which. Totjld drive a number of the large Qld line companies from the state, according to claims, was beaten in the house Tuesday, but passed the senate the same day. The senate bill then passed the. house. The bill permits life insurance com panies to write special benefit clauses never cnforced a8 it Aii not appiy to prwnt day ufe in,urance conditions, But when epeclal Bession wa. called, Tl.avl8 mfrve& notice that he would en(orc( the provisions lf legislative ac- tion were not taken. The old law is mandatory and provides that permits of the insurance companies no can celled by the state department. Thus the insurance companies are given no option in remaining in business In Kansas. Practically all of the large old line eastern stock companies are affected by previsions of the bill, and many Kansas life companies write policies covering benefits extended by the down-east old line life companies.

A com plete program for the days from January 19 to 24 has been prepared F ee A 10-Day Tube Send tbe coupon below and see for yourself bow Pepsodent deans teeth. Apply Pepsin Every Day to Your Teeth All Statements Approved by High Denial Authorities To Fight Film DENTAL SCIENCE has proved that the great tooth wrecker is m slimy film. You can feet it with your tongue. Most tooth troubles are caused by it. It dings to the teeth, enters the crevices, hardens and stays. And teeth will discolor and decay where that film stays, however much you brush them. That is why millions of tooth brush users fail to save their teeth. That film is what discolors not the teeth. It is the basis of tartar. Jt holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Scientists have for years sought ways to combat that film- but the methods proved inadequate. Then one man, after extensive research, applied activated pepsin a di. gestant to the film. And many clinical tests seem to clearly prove that he solved this great film problem. We ask you to see for yourself. This pepsin method is employed in PepsodemV and we offer a 10-Day Tube. See what it does when you use it. See the results in ten days. It will show you a way to clean your teeth as you never have cleaned them before. See How They Glisten Analysis shows that the film is albuminous. Pepsin digests albumin. The object in Pepsodent is to dissolve the film, then to constantly combat it. But pepsin alone is inert. It must be activated, and the usual agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. So pepsin long seemed forbidden. Now a harmless, activating method bat been found. And that method, used in Pepso dent, makes efficient pepsin possible. Able authorities have proved Pepsodent by convincing clinical tests. It has been adopted, and is now endorsed, by leading dentists everywhere. It does what nothing else has done, and everyone should use it. We urge yon to prove it yourself. Ask us for a 10-Day Tube. Look at your teeth and see what it does. See how they glisten.- Do this for your sake and your children's sake. Learn the way the only way to cleaner, safer teeth. with many talks concerning women s work, public health, puDiic scnoois, etc. Little discussion of political parties will be heard at this conven tion.

Alkali in Shampoos Bad For Washing Hair Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which Is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats anything else all to pieces. Tou can set this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that Is required. It makes an abundance of fich, creamy lather, cleanses, thoroughly, and rinses -out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dan druff. EAST SIDE NOTES Notei and personals from East Side by Frances Jones. 'Telephone 3530.
