The Evening Newspaper of Kansas UNSETTLED HOME EDITION TOPEKA, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1921 -TEN PAGES FOUR CENTS I t A t r I A' r 'PHONES BURN OUT Topeka Telephone System Is Paralyzed by Short Circuit. Restoration of Service Is Indef inite, Officials Declare. LONG DISTANCE IS IN ORDER Thirty Men Working Fran tically to Make the Repairs. No Panic Among Girls at Time of Short Circuiting. CITY WITHOUT PHONES Topeka this afternoon went thru the odd experience of existing without telephones. The most concern was on the part of the fire department. It will be necessary for fires to be turned in by the alarm boxes until the phone service is repaired. This delay and confusion may result in a serious fire, and the department warns every one to practice unusual care. Persons who usually wait until the last minute before taxing to their trains were on hand at the stations early this afternoon. Stores with delivery systems were without orders after 1:45 o'clock. All over the city men and women in motor cars and on street cars were carrying baskets to their grocers. Hurry calls to doctors and hos pitals were out of the question. The taxicab systems were para lysed. Women who have not enough energy to wind the family clock rushed to the neighbors instead of calling the Western union. Business activities, engagements and personal calls were eliminated. Topeka is seeing and hearing this afternoon, but she isn't doing much talking. A short circuit in the switchboard In the operating room of the South western Bell Telephone company on Jackson otreet at 1:40 o'clock this afternoon completely interrupted local telephone communications. Altho more than twenty men were working on the damaged switchboard before the smoke had cleared and the firemen had left thV building, no esti mate was made this afternoon by com pany officials as to when the repairs would be completed and service re stored. No damage was done to the build ing, and nearly thirty girls' who were working on the switchboard, left the building in perfect order, and without panic. Long Distance in Order. The long distance switchboard is still in operation, and it is planned to es tablish local stations from which long distance calls may be placed, at 'the earliest possible moment. Every re source the company possesses has been thrown into the Job of restoring the local service. The money damage will be slight, C. A. Aulffers, manager, said. Late this afternoon officials and re pair men declined to guess on the time when the telephone service will be re sumed on the local lines. More Than 50,000 Wires Burned. Repair men were struggling with a mass of wet, burned wires behind the switchboard. There were more than BO. 000 of the individual wires, in the section of switchboard burned out. ITse Fans to Dry Mass. One of the main problems confront ing the repair men is drying out the mass of wires and insulation. All the electric fans available have been trained on the burned-out section, and a tank of compressed air was requisi tioned from the nearest garage to be turned, on the damp mass. The alarm to the fire department was turned in while the board was burning, by one of the traffic men, after the girls had been ordered from the board.

June 15. Perambulator owners have been barred from the city's relief delivery established dur ing the Icemen's strike. Today long lines appeared at Ice stations of baby carriages, toy wagons and wheelbarrows. The city authorities ruled that own ers of baby carriages were not with out means of delivering their own ice. Topeka Fire Alarm Boxes The fire at the Bell Telephone office in Topeka today burned out the local switchboards, and altho repairs are being rushed the company can make no prom ises as to the time of restoration of service.

"If some of you gentlemen here were to be arrested by mistaka or otherwise and circumstances were such that the police department would be compelled to hold yon in the city jail overnight, by morning you would be the strongest advocates of a new Jail for Topeka," Police Judge Rad Lee told the Forum committee of the Chamber of Commerce at noon today. Judge Lee urged the injustice ot keep ing youngsters. Just starting a career of crime, in the "bull pen," which is the only possible place for keeping prisoners in the city jail, in association with the hardened characters which must be held there. Chief Swallow Talks. Judge Lee was followed by Chief of Police Guy M. Swallow. The head of the police department declared that the, city prison is in such condition, and was so constructed, that it is im possible to make it sanitary and de cent, and of a size sufficient to ac commodate the prisoners. Chief Swal low told of the ridicule which had been launched at Topeka because of the condition of -the jail, and urged civic pride as 'the most important of many reasons for having a new and up-to-date city prison here. "Conditions can be made better there, but they cannot be made good," Swallow declared. Thomas Humphreys. attorney, pleaded the cause of the officials of the police department, and the police court, no less than of the men who are confined In the Jail. "It is cruel and Inhuman punishment for the court officials to have to work in a crowded, dirty, ill-furnished court room such as the police court," Humphreys declared. The Rev. R. A. Schell pointed out the fact that Topeka. as the capital of the state should have a city penal in stitution which should be a model for the rest of the state. "The Topeka city Jail should make a bad man good, but it will make a good man bad or a bad man worse, the Reverend Schell declared. Following the address of the men the Forum committee passed a unani- mous resolution declaring to the board or directors that they were in favor of immediate action looking toward the building of a new city Jail. Features of the Forum meeting In connection with the discussion, were the musical numbers rendered by the i Brown SaxoDhone Sextette, commun jity singing by the audience, and yells i by tne J-Jve wire club. TO PROBE RATES Public Utilities to' .Investigate Telephone Charges. Case Affects Total of Fiye Phone Companies. INVESTIGATION SET FOR JULY29 Information Shows Heavy In crease in Toll Returns. Commission's Inquiry Will Be of General Nature. The public utilities commission is gradually responding to the force and effect of the injunction from the United States district court and has veered its course a bit. Now members of the commission announce they will make a general inquiry as to telephone toll charges beginning July 29. Refused To Set Aside Order. This week Judge John C. Pollock of the United States district court re fused to set aside a restraining order against tne commission m tne investi gation of distribution of toll charges under contracts by the 'phone com panies. He held that the contracts were private contracts, did not affect or control rates and were not subject to 'review of the state commission. The writ was issued in a case brought by the Kansas City Long Distance Telephone company, but clearly held a relationship with all toll contracts and may result in dismissal of the entire investigation. To Probe Charges. But the state commission will not consider keeping house without a 'phone rate case. Consequently it has announced a probe of all charges be ginning July 29. The case affects the Kansas City Long Distance Telephone company. Consolidated Telephone company. Southwestern Bell company. Southwest Long Distance company, and Emporia Telephone company. Information gathered by the commis sion is reported to show heavy in creases in toll returns to the telephone companies during the last few years. FORM BIG FIRM Pioneer Cattle Loan Company Capitalized at $100,000. The Incorporators Are Barber County Business Men. The first local move In Kansas to- meet the cattle loan problem was made today when a state charter was sought by the Pioneer Cattle Loan company. The company was organ ized in Lake City. Barber county, and is backed very largely by local capi tal. The corporation has a capitaliza tion of $100,000. Since Gov. W. P. G. Harding or tne federal reserve board visited Topeka several weeks ago, there has been much activity among stockmen to re lieve the financial situation. Propos als have been made for congressional action permitting use of federal funds to aid stockmen thru long term loans. Now Barber county, in the heart of the Kansas grazing district, proposes to meet the situation at home and may he able to make loans in other locali ties. Barber County Men. Practically all of the incorporators of the Pioneer Cattle Loan company are Barber county business men and stock growers. The company will is sue 1,000 sharesVf stock at a par value or J 100 a share. The company's charter application was considered today at the regular meeting of the state charter board. WANT SERVICE RESTORED Public Utilities Hears Case Affecting West Eighth Avenue. Street car service should be provided on the West Eighth avenue line in spite of the fact that revenues pay hut one-half of the operating expenses, witnesses told the public utilities com mission. Several residents and prop erty owners in the district appeared before the commission to urge restora tion of service. The street railway company presented its records show ing that it cost 26 cents a car mUe operating expense and that the West Eighth revenues were 14 cents a car mile. Col. J. D. Norton, James Qu.ney and K. F. Stratton were the principal witnesses who appealed to th com mission to restore the service. J. H. Brannaman, city attorney, wa? present. Officials of the street railway com pany testified that operation of the West Eighth line would cost the com pany $8,000 a year in addition to the revenues produced. It was also pointed out that parallel service was provided on West Tenth and Sixth avenues. HEAR PACKIRGWPANY CASE Testimony In Wolff Hearing Slay Be Finished Today. Taking of testimony in the Wolff Packing company inquisition may be concluded late this afternoon. Wit nesses were examined Tuesday night by members of the attorney general's staff at a hearing in the Industrial court rooms. Investigations were re sumed today.

Planning Board Would Add Territory to City Straightening Boundary

Five Extensions Including Part of Bedwell Addition, East of Ohio Ave., Along Rock Addition and Euclid Park Sketch of the city limits of Topeka, with shaded area showing proposed ex tentions to the boundary line, as recommended by the city planning board today. The city's boundary line will -be straightened and a number of acres will be added to the city's area if recommendations of the city planning board made today in special meeting are approved by the city commission. Five extensions were recommended by the board, including a portion of Bedwell's addition on the east of the city, a tract a block east of Ohio ave nue, a considerable amount of terri tory along the Rock Island right of way from First and Polk streets to Washburn avenue, and the largest tract recommended for addition, which extends from Munson avenue down Randolph avenue to Euclid avenue. embracing Miller's College Park addi tion and part of Euclid Park addition. The additions recommended by the KANSAS IN LEAD r Big Increase in Building Ae- tlvitles in West. More Buildings Under Con- struction Than YearTAgo. Kansas Is leading in building activi ties in the middle west region, accord ing to a statement here today by E. F. Fader, director of the government's industrial survey for this region. Fa der stated that more buildings are under construction than a year ago. altho the total in building permits is only one-third the record lor this sea son last year. Much of the Kansas activity. Fader said, is due to a building boom in Wichita. That city leads all towns In the region comprising Kansas, Mis souri, Nebraska, North and South Da kota, Iowa and Minnesota. At pres ent one million dollar building, two $600,000 structures and 992 residences are under construction In Wichita, Fa der declared. Less Unemployment. The number of unemployed In rail road repair shops is less than in May, Fader told members of the industrial court today, in spite of reductions in working forces by the Santa Fe and other railroads in this district. Im provement in employment condition In the packing industry is also apparent. The employment condition in Kansas at this time shows an improvement of .8 per cent over May, according to in formation gathered by Fader. Rail road repair shops in the region are de clared to be using more men than at any time in five months. The harvest labor demand will re sult in a decided improvement in Kan sas this month. Fader told the court Judges. Need More Harvest Hands. Additional urgent calls for harvest hands in the central and southern Kansas wheat belt were received to day by the labor division of the in dustrial court. Despite large numbers of unem ployed in the state, harvest Jobs were not readily accepted at ii a. day with board, tho standard wage set. Orders now coming from Wichita and Hutch inson call for hands at $4 a day. Two hundred were sent to Hutchin son, Tuesday, from the Kansas City, Mo., free employment bureau, accord ing to a report from A. L. Barkman, field representative. A strong move ment of hands from Chicago and St. Louis Is said to be setting in. M'DONDUGH TO CHICAGO jWill Become Superintendent of Shops 0 on Illinois division. The appointment was announced to day of James McDonough to be super intendent of shops on the Illinois di vision of the Santa Fe, with headquar ters In Chicago. McDonough takes the position left vacant when A. L. Beardsley resigned on account of ill health. The appointment was an nounced by J. H. McGoff, mechanical superintendent for the Santa Fe sys tem. McDonough received his training In the Santa Fe Bhops at Topeka. BASEBALL RESULTS Detroit-Boston, postponed; rata. Island .Tracks, College Park: Addition. planning board today should be made for the particular purpose of straight ening the city's boundary line. Later additional territory will be taken into the city, probably when the city plan ning expert is -engaged to evolve the "Topeka plan"' ana)- work toward the "Greater Topeka" which is the goal of the planning board, President Rob ert iPierce ex.pla.ined. "The city's boundary line was so needlessly uneven," Pierce said. "In one- district at the north of the city Clay and Fillmore streets are within tbejeity limits but the property abut ting, on the streets Is not within the limits and therefore the city ia pro viding upkeep of the streets and other privileges for the residents on those streets, none of whom is paying taxes." POLITICS IN WAY

Congress Finds Tax and Tariff Laws Big Job. Cannot Hurry Legislation and Adjourn as Harding Wishes. Washington, June 15. Tariff legis lation will keep congress busy until October. The new tax bill may go over until next session. This was the answer today of congressional leaders to President Harding's clearly ex pressed wish that the house and sen ate would concentrate on tax .and tariff laws and then go home. Senator Penrose, chairman of the senate finance committee, in discuss ing this question, expressed the fear today that the injection of politics into tax and tariff debates would seri ously delay final enactment of the two measures which, President' Harding said yesterday, constitute the work for which he called, the present extra ses sion. Hopes Democrats Win Help. "I am going to do everything I can to keep politics out of it," said Pen rose, "and I expect Democratic lead ers to do likewise. There should be no politics in consideration of a tax bill. It may be impossible to avoid it considering the tariff, because there are two schools of thought, the pro tectionists and the tariff for revenue ideas." Penrose frankly stated It would probably be October before the tariff is done with. He strongly hoped, he said, that taxes could be revised promptly thereafter, but he did not deny that final Action may go over until the December session. Drys Are In Row. Beer for the sick still appeared far away today even with governmental machinery sufficiently organized to make it a quick reality. An unexpected row in the ranks of drys In congress. which may hold up legislation to pro hibit all beer, now appears to be the chief hope of brewers. Studv of former Attorney uenerai Palmer's opinion that beer may be Drescribed as medicine and delay 'in selecting an internal revenue and pro hibition commissioner have been as signed as reasons for failure to issue the regulations that would make the Falmer ruling effective. Both commissioners have been ap- oointed but Roy Haynes, the new pro hibition commissioner, is "studying" the beer regulations with an eye to their revision. If It becomes plain that congress Is to pass new prohibi tion legislation soon, the regulations may be further held up. Haynes indi cated, even after he completes his study. Meanwhile, the row In the dry ranks makes the fate of new legislation un certain. OIL DOWN TO tl PER BARREL. Mid-Continent Price Now Lowest Since 1916. Independence, Kan.. June 15.

Test Plan on Ayenue Between Sixth and Eighth. u INTERFERES WITH MERCHANTS Cnrb Garages Hare Been a Menace to Business. "Stop and Go" Signs Also Sng-, gested by Planners. .jj V$!

WHAT CHANGE MEANS. The city's "white way moths" who park their cars along the curbs to gaze upon and comment upon passing women will have to look at them go by in the street cars. Drivers will have to be more ac curate in stopping their motor cars it the proper lines instead of the present system of allowing the ma chines to coast gently into the curb. The cent?r of the streets, here tofore held sacred to vehicles ex cept on intersections, will be thoro fares for pedestrians entering or leaving motor cars, thereby mak ing street driving more dangerous. Persons in the habit of accepting soda fountain service in their cars will find it necessary to enter the store. The poorly paved sections be tween car tracks may be avoided. Motor cars will have to be parked with brakes set tightly. Motor cars will park next to th street car tracks rather than next to w the street curb on Kansas avenue be tween Sixth street and Eighth avenue, if a suggestion of the Merchants' as sociation and the city planning board is approved and acted upon by the city commission on Friday. The parking at the street car line rather than at the curb in the busy section of the city where traffic la congested has been considered by the city previously but no action has ever been taken fn the matter. At a meet ing of a planning board committee at the city hall this rooming with city, v commissioners' as members of the committee, the new parking plan for the two blocks of the avenue was unanimously approved as an attempt ed solution of traffic problems. Many large cities have put the car line parking system Into practice and have found it more satisfactory than the curb parking. Washington. D. C Boston, Indianapolis, and other cities were cited by planning board members as examples of the success of such parking. VT Tri It Two Weeks. ,i H. The new parking suggestion to the committee was presented by Chaa. L. Mitchell, as a plan of the Merchants' association offered for approval by the city planning board. It was moved that the plan be tried between Sixth, street and Eighth avenue on Kansas avenue for two weeks, if the city com mission approves Friday. If the plan is satisfactory In the two weeks it will be adopted permanently. The close parking on Kansas ave nue in the busy district makes it Uif ficult to gain access to the sidewalk: from the street, Mitchell pointed out. It interferes in various ways with th activities of the merchants operating business in that district. It Is a diffi culty for shoppers, preventing them from alighting from their cars at points where they desire. Often they must go a block or more out of their way before they can reach the side walk. It was pointed out also, that in case of fire in business places along the avenue the fire department would not have to be hindered at the curb line by a line of motor cars. Erect "Stop and GO" Signs. The traffic conditions on the ave nue are such that some relief must be found soon. Mayor Corwine said, and added that it was probable the city commission would act on the car lino parking suggestion. Another suggestion for meeting traffic problems was to erect the "Stop and Go" signs at Intersections In the congested districts, urged by C. B. Merriam. The work of traffic po licemen will be aided by such signs, Merriam said, and with the help the signs will be to motor drivers, the traffic difficulties will be greatly re- lieved. The motion to erect such signs will be brought up in the Friday meeting of the commission. SIBERIA TO JOIN THE SOVIET Japs Deny Charge of Aiding Anti-Red Coup d'Etat. Vladivostok. June 15.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL-WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1921 TELLS OF FLOOD Santa Fe Employ Gives Story of PueMoTMsflSter. He Believes That at Least 500 Lives Were Lost. "Two-thlrdi ot the business district of Pueblo have been totally destroyed," II. I Loveless, an employ of the Santa Fe at the stricken city, declared today. Loveless was in Topeka after a consultation with the officials of the claims department here, and; is return ing to Pueblo tonight. Loveless was caught in the lower portion of the city when the flood struck the city. Within a few moments of the time the water reached the bridge on which he and a friend were standing, they were com pelled to wade thru a waist-deep flood to get back to dry ground. Blew Fire Whistle. "When the fire whistle was blown as a warning for people to leave the lower sections of the city, instead of their leaving, crowds of other people came down from uptowns to see the anticipated flood, and I don't think that all of theni got away again," Loveless said. The district known as "The Grove" which Was made up of some of the oldest buildings, mostly two stories high and of brick, was totally, de .molished. "As we' left the district we could ee people looking out of the second story windows there. It was two days before they could get into the district again, and most of the houses were masses of ruins. There are bodies in there tht will never be found or iden tified," Loveless declared. He believes that at least 600 persons lost their lives In the flood, tho it is difficult to estimate the number dead. Complete lists of the bodies identified have never been -made public. Loveless as serts. Stood ill Water. One shift of men working In the Banta Fe roundhouse at Pueblo was caught In the rising flood, and climbed to the tops of engines which stand twelve feet or more nigh. The men stood on top of the engines, and were still standing In water, where they re mained from late Saturday evening until Sunday before they could be res cued. One of the most feared dangers of the city at the present time is an epi demic. Loveless said. The carcasses of innumerable animals which were drowned,,as well asthe bodies of hu man beings, are still in the wreckage, and the stench in the lower portion of. the vlty is very bad. f lied Cross Dolus; Dig Work. 'The Red Cross is looking after that and also after the homeless people, lor whom 1,000 tents have been pitched In Mineral Palace park," Loveless says. "Things are being cleaned up as rapidly as possible, and there is plenty of food there now, but there are many things which the people still need In their camps. There is urgent need for everything which the Ked Cross is able to get to Pueblo." The soldiers are still in command of the city, and 110 person Is allowed to be on the streets after 7 o'clock in the evening, without a military pass.- i Will Take Xears. it will" be years before the, business district recover from'' the damage which was done by the water and by the fires which broke out after the city pumping plant had been disabled. 'When the, flames broke out in a lumber yard, an automobile garage, and an office building at the same time, there was no water to fight it wfth. If a downpour of rain lasting an hour and a half had not struck the city, the remainder of it must have burned," Loveless satd. "The. fire lit ud the whole cltv. When the lumber caught fire, rafts of it floated out 01 the yard on the ris ing current, and went down the river, blazing until it was out of sight. ''By the flashes of liehtnlna. float ing houses were visible as they came a own ine river." Train service has been resumed to Pueblo by the. Santa Fe, which sends trains thru La Junta to Trinidad, and over the tracks of the Colorado South ern to Pueblo. From Pueblo to Den ver, Santa Fe trains use their own tracks in conjunction with those ot the Denver and Rio Grande, which are .parallel. 1 1. 1 1 v i Llama uu vii oaiiia cc i... a Win commenced running over the route outlines, it was stated today in the offices of the general manager at Topeka, BAIN FAILS TO HALT GOLFERS Kansas Tournament at Wichita Starts In 'Downpour ThtS Morning.

Some people think if a Doctor advertises he is a ouack or a fake, although everybody else that has anything whorth while advertises. To advertise one thing; is the same as another, you have to deliver the goods or it does not pay. Of course if a doctor who covers the entire field ef medicine should advertise all the diseases he treats, it would sound like patent medicine propa ganda, and make him ridiculous in the eyes of the public But if a Doctor Specializes In' certain particular diseases, which, he has made a special study of, and has a marked success In treating, why not let the public know It?

Haiklo, Director, Washing ton, 1. C As an outgrowth of our continuous and continuing war with. Germany, there has come war between the sen-! ate and the house. Members of con I ;gress apparently have grown tired of S 'war and are determined to have peace if ttiey have to fight for It. The ques tion at Issue seems to be who shall mifke the peace. The Senate resem bles the proverbial dog In the manger. It would not make peace when It had ,a chance, and new it will not permit the house to do it. So our army still is on the Rhine with little prospect of an oarly return home. While Wood xfr Wilson may go down in history ai the man who kept us out of war, Benator Lodge will be remembered as ;!the man who kept us in war. It should not be forgotten, however, that both gentlemen in turn have received the endorsement of the people at the polls. The Friends of Irish Freedom an nounce their Intention of publishing Jjthe names of 6,000 Irish-Americans i killed in the Great War. Publication is to be made on the day that Admiral -Sims lands in America. The Friends 't of Irish Freedom doubtless are at taching more importance to thead- miral and what he says than the clr t cumstances warrant. Besides, whit r; these gentlemen do or say and what the admiral does or says will not have a particle of influence in bringing the Irish question to an amicable settle tin en t. Delegates to the convention of i the American Federation of Labor also are evincing a tendency to waste the time of that body by passing resolu tions on I he Irish question. Such pro- 'ceedlng may be harmless but it cer tainly will not be productive of any desirable results. Exports of beer from Japan are said to show a large increase. Thus does this country lose its former market to r cheap Oriental labor. 'j President Gompers, in his opening address before the convention of the American Federation of Labor, in ,'T Denver, urged his followers to strong er opposition to the enemies of the. unions but without specifying who those enemies are.' There is in exist ence a widespread feeling that the most dangerous enemies of the unions Rare in the unions themselves.. Outside "Vthelr own ranks the organizations ihave no enemies. Such opposition as J1 exists is directed against some of the methsds pursued and not against the unions. The coal men are in despair. The i public, it appears, will neither vbe frightened nor coaxed into buying coal at existing prices, it persists in wait- ins, like.JVIicawber. for something to turn up. Noting that monkey glands have re 'j juvenated aged men and cow glands tare now increasing the height of stunted girls, Leslie's suggests that the next thing in order will be camel glands, so that theman-about-town may go forty days or so without feel ing the need of a drink. Labor leaders continue to talk about the "enemies of organized labor, meaning of course the employers. But it would be just as reasonable and as near the truth to call the members of the unions the enemies of the men who pay their wages. Probably there J little If any enmity on either side. They simply do not agree. "If building contractors ot New Jersey do not abandon their, present policy of hostility to labor organiza tions and start construction, the unions themselves will undertake- to do this important work," declares a labor paper. This indicates that the unions are getting onto the right track. What the country needs Is con struction, and it makes -little differ ence who bosses the work. There is no apparent reason why a group of responsible and competent workmen of any class should not join hands and bid on a construction job, get the con tract, and not only pay themselves the high wages they want, but make "the contractor's profit as well. If that plan won't work, a few experiments will disclose the reason why. An ex periment in this line might prove val uable in several ways. It is reported that the allies are planning to offer tor sale the German reparation bonds at 69 cents on the dollar. Probably these bonds would be dear at any price. There is no as surance that they ever will be paid even as to interest. American inves tors will do well to think twice before buying these bonds. They probably will be afforded the opportunity to) purchase them. INDUSTRIAL WAR MUST- END. Both organized labor and its em ployers appear to be equally opposed to the Kansas court of industrial rela tions. So do individuals who engage in street fights, object to the Interfer ence of the police. But public opin ion has reached a point where it is hardly less tolerant of Industrial war fare than it is of a street brawl. If employers and employes do not want to be interfered with it is up to them to find a way to settle their dis putes in a fair, equitable or at least at satisfactory manner. Enlightened demand that the de structive warfares of industry shall give way to methods for peaceful and just settlement of differences has had striking results in the promotion of co-operative plans and systems. Hun dreds of enterprises thruouf the coun try have established relationships be tween the employers and the workers which have brought about the mutual respect and unity of effort which can result only from frank counsel and fair dealing. Followers of the Compers and Gary schools may contend that arrange ments of this kind are feasible only in limited and. specialized enterprises; they will stick to their theory that the labor question as a whole must be set tled on the terms exemplified by Gom pers or Gary. These two conceptions are held by powerfully organized, forces, and can be met adequately only by the strongest demonstration of their unsoundness. The alternative to the unending warfare between labor and capital has been tried on a scale big enough to satisfy any mind open to convic tion. A form of arbitration and co operation is a proved success in the vast enterprises of the Rockefeller in terests. Since their distinguishing characteristic is efficiency, not altru ism, the testimony of their experience ought to carry weight. A few years ago strife between the Rockefeller mining Interests and the workers produced in Colorado a state of widespread lawlessness and finaHy of virtual civil war. Incessant strikes, with ever-ihereasing violence, were met. by stern retaliation; there were pitched battles between armed work-J ers and company guards, with out breaks of looting, arson and assassi nation. At last the state militia was turned against the strikers, civil gov ernment in the region was suspended, and there prevailed a contest of brute force which scandalized the nation. When the situation was at its worst John D. Rockefeller, Jr., made a per sonal investigation of the war area. He determined to seek a way to en a such florrors and to readjust the rela tions of the Rockefeller corporation and its thousands of workers on a ba sis that would bring permanent peace and would restore the human rights obliterated in the insensate struggle. of force. He visited the strikers' camps, talked with them in their homes, examined every condition and analyzed every grievance. Then he commissioned the ablest social and in dustrial experts in the country to drr.ft comprehensive plan for the future conduct of the enterprises. The outcome was establishment o( the "industrial representation" sys tem, which was accepted by the work ers thru secret ballot after the fullest discussion, and which has transformed the scene of sanguinary war into a. re gion of peace and prosperity. The es sentials of the plan are that the work ers in each plant elect from their number representatives to serve on joint committees with representatives of the company; these bodies and sim ilar conferences covering districts deal with all matters"" relating to workins and living conditions, including ques tions of -co-qperation and conciliation, safety, sanitation, health, housing. recreation and education. The right of every worker to present grievances and the right of all to) hold meetings are safeguarded. After a steady rise In building ex penditure month by month from Jan uary to April, the May total, it is pointed out by Bradstreets, is in a slight degree disappointing, in that It shows a Email recession from the total for April this year, which, it might be recalled, was the fifth largest total t er recorded. However, owing to the recession in building tn May a year ago. which marked the beginning .of tho depression in that trade last ye.r. the May total this year shows a gain over May last, the first gain over the like month ot the year befoca shown in twelve months. This recession probably is due to the situation In Chicago, where building operations amounting to $100,000,000 are report ed to be tied up by strikes. The bulk oi the building in progress, however. is of business houses. So far, there has been no marked revival of home constructlon. v TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC J. HASKTN, Director, Washington, D. C. PRESS AGENTIX-G A If ATIOX. Washington, D. C., June 12. -A new figure on the troubled scene of in ternational relations' is the publicity agent who represents a small nation trying to get the recognition of larger ones for its right to an independent existence. The splintering of national boun daries which the war brought about, as we all know, produced a large crop of new nations. It also brought be fore the whole world two principles, which, if not new, were at least for the first time made popular. These principles were the "right of self -de termination" and the "rights of small nations," or, as one wag puts it since the Versailles negotiations, "the small J iigiiLa ui nations. It is true that the old-line diplomats and politicians who made the neace and who have held the reins of power Europe ever since, made light of J, these principles. The right of a peo pie to determine its own political destiny has scarcely anywhere been made good, and the rights of small nations have appeared to be what ever the large nations found it con venient and profitable to allow them. Nevertheless, those two principles have become- more than mere phrases for the simple reason that they have been grasped by millions of men. They have not been put into execution, but they have been enormously Advertised. The peoples of these email nations cling to them with desperate hope, and cry out, above the clash of armies and the sonorous rumble of diplo macy, to the people of other nations. The whole world has grasped the idea that a small and weak nation may have rights, which it is not strong enough to enforce, but which must nevertheless be enforced for the sake of justice; just as a small or weak man has rights which other men pro tect for the sake of principle. This principle of justice and co-operation instead of force and fraud is but im perfectly enforced between man and man. and force and fraud often tri umph. As between nations force and fraud seem to triumph almost always. Yet it is by evolving this principle of justice and4rying to live up to it that men have been able to emerge Jrom the jungle, and live together in larger and larger units first In families, thenin tribes, and finally in great and wen uiguuixea Diaiea. jl lie CAitriiMuu of this principle to the dealings of na tions, so that the whole world may be come the safe home of all men, is surely the next step. It is an. ideal, and you may damn it with the ad jective Utopian if you wish, but it is the next step on the long road the race has been traveling ever since it came down from the trees. .'.The Case, of Lithuania. So the small nation, addressing its plea to the conscience of the world, deserves some attention. "And where is it to get that attention unless thru the newspapers? Take the republic of Lithuania, for instance. In medieval times it was a great nation, as nations went in those days. Its kings claimed a large terri tory and controlled it more or less successfully. In the course of time Lithuania became, a province of Rus sia, but It always remained distinc tive. The chief reason for this Is that its people are not Slavs, nor Asiatics, of any other kind, but are tall blonde Nordics, of the same race that has given England and America some of their best stock. This Baltic littoral on which Lithuania is situated is said by anthropoiogista to be the original nome or tne Nordic type of man.s Its- cold and cloudy climate evolved his light coloring and high thin nose, suited to breathe cold damp air. From this region the Nordic type has spread over the whole world, all except the tropical ana semi-tropical parts, which are not climatically suited to it. When the crash came in Russia, Lithuania seized the opportunity to set up an independent republic. This repuDiic was not. in the least like the Russian- government, but modelled after our own. Havinar thus resisted the Bolshevik propaganda, of which the allied nations are so fearful. Lithuania ought to have had their sympathy But Poland claimed a large part of the Lithuanian territory, and has seized aHbut one-third of it. It Is said a plebiscite would show beyond a doubt that the population of Lithuania is overwhelmingly in favor of a Lithuanian republic and against Po lish domination. But France wants a large and strong nation as a buffer between her and Russia, and she has been trying to set uo, such a Poland ever since the war, with somewhat distressing results. Hence France is aealnst the claims of Lithuania to an Independent existence, and in favor of giving most of the Lithuanian terri tory to Poland. England's Attitude. England, on the other hand, Is said to be favorable to the Lithuanian as pirations, and this Lithuanian prob lem is said to be one of the several which are straining relations between Britain and France. In this, as in so many other Eu ropean matters, the United States holds a sort of balance of power. If the United States should extend for mal recognition to the Lithuanian re public, its case would be enormously strengthened, probably won. ThaT is why Lithuania has hired a press agent, ana put mm nere in Washington to tell the American peo ple all about Lithuania and her as pirations. ..If the American people, thru their newspapers, can be con vinced that the Lithuanian republic should be recognized, it probably will be recognized by the American gov ernment in due course. Meantime, most of the American public does not even know that there is a Lithuanian republic." Its official publicity agent, Mr. M. E. King, is up against one of the hardest jobs a press agent ever tackled. The methods of putting over a movie star or a candidate for con gress are well known and systema tized, but-when it comes to putting over a new republic, the great pro fession of publicity has a new problem to solve.

Dorothy Dfr Talks BY DOROTHY BIX World's Highest Paid Woman Writer, Father's Day 2. We teach the young to revere heroes, and it is well to set before their imaginations the men and wo men who have done great deeds. Per haps the celebration' ot Father's Day will do something to make girls and boys see that when they want to do a little bit of hero worshiping, many of them can find as great a hero and martyr as ever lived right on their own hearthstone. Perhaps he doesn't look heroic, this little, bent, stooped, bald-headed, in significant man they call father. He's always shabby, and busy, and tired. and he goes early to work and comes come late, and he never takes part in the family festivities. No one ever consults him about their plans, or asks nis advice or opinion, and .his onlv function is shelling out money. Mother and the children are peagued together against him, and to n iiijiu aney ueciae- wnat tney want to do, and then they hold him up until they get the last cent they can wring- out ot him, and they are never grateful, or appreciative for what they get. They never under stand that father is working himself to death for them, that he is literally feeding them on his heart's blood. The average man sacrifices his life to his family, and he doesn't do it in one big, thrilling moment, and get the agony over with. He does it every day and hour t)f long, weary years in a sustained heroism at which we can but marvel, r'or out of all of his labor he gets nothing for himself except the bare necessities of life. In anv ordinirv fflmllv win 'find that Father is the worst dressed person in it; that Father, eats -what is left at the table after he has helped his ravenous young; that Father "is crowded into the least comfortable room in the house, and has no place of his own in which he can keep his belongings or even read in peace of an evening; that Father stays in town and works during sultry summers and freezing winters, while Mother and the children go to Maine and Cali fornia; that Father is a figurehead in the house he supports, and none in it are so poor as to do him reverence. Perhaps on Father's Day the girls and boys away at college, or who are breaking the speed limit in high powered motor cars, or who, in. gay attire, are walking down the sunny side of Easy street, will stop and think of the toil-worn man whose tireless labor has saved them from the hard ships and poverty his own youth knew. Perhaps on Father's Day ome highly-educated and professional, mam will remember the bent back of his father on whom he climbed to power j and rjlace. Perhaps on Father's Day some de voted mother, who is sacrificing her husband to the children, will realize what a cruel thing she is doing. Perhaps on Father's Day all of these careless and ungrateful ones will try in some small way to pay the debt they owe to the man who has paid 'the freight on life for them".

HOUSE (From Philadelphia Public Ledger.) 'Our distinguished fellow columnist of the New York Tribune, who is. none other than this "F. P. A." you read about, again gives us pause. It seems the fellow isn't' satisfied with just writing his stuff. After it goes to the composing- room he 4iangs around the office until it is put in type in order that he may read proof on it. The fellow must be sick of the sight of it by the time it appears, in print. We very frankly admit the author ship of this column. We write it our self personally, except when otherwise indicated. But, thank goodness, we don't have to read it, either in proof or in print. Occasionally we do read the column after it appears in print. We do it for the purpose of learning how many new words the proofroom has decided to-ftiis wife, and it isn t your anniversary. capitalize over night and the number of semicolonsIt has written into the "copy." The way of a proofroom with a semicolon is one of the amazing in tricacies of journalistic endeavor and never fails to delight. We always read thia column on mornings following the use of such phrases as "Them was the happy days" or "Them was his very words." To find,1 as one invari ably does, that the proofroom has changed the phrases to read "Those were the happy days" and "Those were his very words" is a never-failing source of joy. 'Having dragged Rupe Hughes new book into the controversy, we take pleasure in noting the best criticism of it we have heard. "Slender Bill" Taft says it's an insult to the theoreti cally intelligent. That nuance of thought, "theoret ically intelligent," is soul-satisfying and is a line that should live.

A book called "Dust," written by Mr. and Mrs. Holdeman-Julius recently, has attracted some attention. Weuare indebted to E. W. Howe for V;ertain facts concerning the Holdeman Juliuses. It seems that a man named Julius married a woman named Holde man, taking her name and making it a part of his own. We have, therefore, decided not to read the book called "Dust." JiVe should not- care to read any book written in part by a man who had taken his wife's name. 1 Not every elderly man would marry a young and attractive woman if he had a chance, aitno tnat is a general ly accepted belief. Most elderly men are looking -for peace and comfort they do not wish to devote their de clining years to the taming of a woman. The Committee" From the Church of tne worm maxes a gwm many reports. where, by the way, doea it get its au thority to do so?" The boldness of the New York Tribune is asserting that women are not as good athletes as men is likely to get it into serious trouble. That the women will resent openly the "slur" cast by the Tribune goes with out saying. We go further than Dr. Wiley, who says beer is not a medicine. We claim it is an unsatisfactory intoxicant ana a poor beverage. J. R.

I think we would draw even better than the principals in the big fuss on July 2. You would have weight and fight ing experience on me tho, I believe." Our zest for combat Is not what it was last week. If agreeable to J- It. I., we'll call the fight off. It Is a con siderable relief to be able to do so.

I loved animals, and one day Keith bought me the cutest little Pomera nian. Margaret was furious. VHe must have tneant-tt for me," she declared. "When ray little Toto died he said he would get me an other." "How long ago was that?" I asked, hugging the PonTclose. "Just before he married you. "I don't believe there is any mis take. The card says 'To my dear wife, on our anniversary.' You aren't Well, he will have to get me onw too. It must have coax nlm some thing! I am a pretty, good judge j Poms and that is a good one." I made no reply, but that night I waited in the dark at the top of the stairs purposely to hear what Mar garet would say when Keith came in. I had bought him a lovely set of cuff buttons and had the box in my hand. Jrieitn, you Intended that Pom for me, didn't you?" she asked after she had kissed him.' Why, no, Margaret. Didn't the card come with it? It is our anni versary, you know. I had Intended to give a large party for Vera but father's death changed all that." "But nave you forgotten that when Toto died you promised me another Jfomf l was sure you Intended this one lor me. That was -a long time ago, Mar garet. You have forgotten that I spoke ot getting a dog. and at the time you said to give you the money instead. I think you wanted a gown you felt you could not afford." i "I had forgotten, Keith." That was all. but I knew .from, her tone that I should be allowed little if any pleasure in possessing my Pom. I determined that I would keep the little fellow out of her sight as much as possible. But I reckoned without the two girls. Both Irene and Gloria were delighted with him, and Insisted upon playing with him much of the time. But every-time the doe barked, nr I was with him and making any fuss over mm, Margaret found fault, said it "got on her Serves." etc I should haver-been warned, but wasn't. I nev er dreamed that even Margaret would be so cruel, so spiteful. "Vera will have to get rid of that dog!" Margaret said to Keith xone night. v "Why?" "1 can't explain, Keith, but some way my nerves are in. such a condi dition since father's death that I qan't endure anything that annoys me with out feeling really ill.. I don't want to be disagreeable, dear, but surely my neaitn la worth more, should have more consideration, than Vera's de sire for a dog." "Try .and overcome that feeling, Margaret. Vera has grown fond of her pet And Vera," he turned to me, 'keep him out of Margaret's way for a while." I made no answer. None was re quired. But I was very careful for days to keep the Pom out of Mar garet's way. Then once when I was out, Gloria took him down stairs. It was dinner time when I came home, and when I asked for Mar garet, I was told she was in bed. I huTried to her room to see if I could do anything for her. I had scarcely opened her door in response to her faint "come in" before Keith "also hurried to her. The maid had told him as he came in the door that Mar garet was ill, and I was with her. "What is it, Margaret?" he anx iously inquired. "I knew it would end this way," she moaned. "I knew that I should be made ill because of that dog." "But, Margaret, you always loved animals. You were disappointed the dog was not yours. What is wrong, dear?'- "I used to love animals around, but I can't endure them now. I loved Toto, as you know. This dgg reminds me of him, yet makes me very ner vous. -The doctor said I must get rid of him at once. I would not let him know he belonged to Vera. It would seem like unkindness on her part to have kept him knowing how nervous he made me." She had put me In the wrong -as usual. "Don't get excited Margaret. The dog shall be kept out of your way." "That isn't the Idea! He must be taken away fVm the house. The doc tor is quite determined upon that. He said that my nerves would straighten out only when the cause of my nervousness were removed." "Very well. Don't excite yourself. You are making yourself feverish." He laid his hand on .her head. "The dog shall be sent away at once." I rushed from the room. Not once had I spoken. But hot anger filled my heart. I knew Margaret was shamming. (Tomorrow Vera grows more re belllous.

Mioses Birdena Crandell and Edith Thacber eubstitoted for Mlsa Grace Curtis and Miss Lillian Whit lock, Evening Story A Different Plane! BY R. RAY BAKER. In a moment ot indiscretion, when the romantic side of her nature was set aflame by glowing words of senti ment from two masculine lips, Ade laide Whitman consented to become the bride of the young man who ut tered them. And now she regretted the rashness. For Gilbert Claxton was not the man for her. He belonged to a different plane of life a lower plane, she felt convinced.. She was the belle of Brockton, and her father was the mayor and one of the wealthiest citi zens. Gilbert was a dreamer. He lived in a world of imagination and lacked the practicalness that makes for success. He received a small wage for his la bors as a clerk In the offices of the Oceana Portland Cement company, and outside of working hours he Udreamed and wove the dreams' into stories that never sold. Gilbert was writing a book, he told Adelaida-but she had no faith in him or his works. He was a good looking man with ay-fine vocabulary, but that waa the sum total ot his assets. lie did not know how to act" in the best society, and he never looked well groomed, and his tie never was tied just right, and the collar he wore usually had a spot ot grime on it somewhere. This was Adelaide's ap praisal of the man she had promised to marry, said appraisal being made when sober, sound reasoning came to her rescue the next day. So Adelaide, sat down and wrote a note to Gilbert explaining the situa tion. She could not tell him in person, for fear that his fascinating personal ity would undermine her resolution. "I am very sorry this has hap pened," said the note, "hut L realize I was not quite myself whenI made that promise to you. Really -we were not meant for each other. We belong to different planes of HfeT and we never would be happy. Please forgive Gilbert received the note that after noon. It came with three long, heavy envelopes, and when nt first he saw it he took it tor ai. acceptance of some ui ens worK. 'Jerry,-' ha, called, hnldinir r small envelope. "Here's something different for a change." jerry was the slim, brown-haired girl seated at a table reading a manu script. She had lived with Mrs. Clax ton since the death of the girl's father some years ago and was considered one of the family. Jerry was greatly interested in the mannsorinta whirh Gilbert was forever sending away and getting back, and one day she had asked permission to look- She had read it and offered a helpful criticism which resulted in sale of the story. After" that- Gilbert always let jerry peruse tne product ot his brain oeiore sending it away. "I never could write anvthine- mv self," Jerry confessed, "but somehow I seem able to tell w,hat is wrong with your work." So Gilbert had placed the girl on his "staff," and when she was not attend ing to housework and getting meals she usually was engaged in reading manuscript, just now she was help ing Gilbert with his book. Her eyes brightened when Gilbert held up the small envelope, but his face took on a puzzled look when he noticed the penmanshiu of the ad dress. He tore the envelope open in silence and read, and then he went out and took a walk without saying a word, i Jerry's eyes followed him thfru the door, -and they were full of sym pathy or something else. Bhe nodded understandlngly as she resumed read ing. A year rolled by and Adelaide Whit man had not yet met the emaculate man with the high- ambitions; and neither had Gilbert Claxton made his mark as a writer. However, they saw no more of each other except when they met by. chance. After that note from her Gilbert made no overtures. If he suffered as a result of her action he suffered in silence. No one could look into his thoughts unless it was Jerry. Then came a great day for Gilbert. What made the day great was a slim letter from a book publisher, and it invited him to New York for a con sultation regarding the book that was to be published. Gilbert went, and as the train took him out of sight a middle-aged woman and a young girl turned from the sta tion. L "When he comes back' he will be a success," predicted tne miaaie-agea woman. "I know his book will twin, altho I have not read It." "It will win. all right." said the girl. "I have read it, and I know it is good. To herself she added, somewhat saaiy; x Yes, he will be a success, and then Music Is Essential GIVE YOUR FAMILY THE GOOD THINGS OF LIFE HAVE MUSIC IN YOUR HOME; In these times when thrift and saving are so universally discussed and practiced it is well to remember that true thrift consists of spending wisely, in separating the chaff from the wheat, and in discarding all but the real good things of life.

It became one oi tne breaking sellers of the seasotv lnsiuo of a month from the time it appeared on sale, Gilbert was on h-s way to fame, while the Suture looked finan cially bright as well. Six snontns later wucn that Gilbert was 'returning to the old home town half the populace laid plans to entertain him.- Many of tham had always liked him. -tt-ntolM htm scant attention, while still others had scoffed at him and his dreaming waya But now that he was a celeb rity all wanted to shake his hand. Adelaide Whltnfan's father broks the news to her. "I see young Claxton is coming home for a visit," Mr. Whitman ob served, returning home ona evening from his office. "Adelaide. It se-ems to me you should, have held on to tnat chap when you had him. Think of thg social distinction not to mention thi money side of the question." Adelaide felt much th same. The emaculate man with ign ambition had not yet come, and she was begin ning to fear he never would. Yes, Gilbert would be a good catch now. When Gilbert arrived he was greeted by a crowd of friends ana would-be friends. The mayor waa there to shake his hand and welcome him home. It was such a grand thins for one of the home, boys to make good out In the world, said the mayor, and added that he had always pre dicted great th.ngs lor unnen. Gilbert looked little amerent irum his old self. He was not perfectly dressed, and his collar had a smudge on it, and his tie was not adjusted just right But persons who had cr.ticised him for-his untidiness in the past now quite approved, holding it was neces sary to. genius. At nome jerry nanueu n' pack of social invitations, and among the lot was one from Adelaide Wh t- man. Jerry winced as sne saw nun tear it open and read. "He still cares," sne signea. The epistle was more than a social invitation. I realize now. it said, "tnat 1 was mistaken before and that I really cared for you. I shall be glad if you will forget that last note I wrote you and things can be with us as they wera before." Gilbert laid the note aside and smiled whimsically. Then he turned a peculiar glance on- Jerry one sno never had noticed before and invited her for a stroll along the woody path where he had- gone so often in quest of inspiration.' They were gone some time, and when they returned both were smiling happily. "I never guessed it," Jerry said as they entered the house. "Did you?"- "Never," he confessed. "Not until I went over the manuscript ..with tho publisher and he showed me how tho changes I had made at your sugges tion were largely responsible for ac ceptance. Then I did some hard thinking, and suddenly I realized how it was." He picked up Adelaide's note, read it again, tnen wrote a reply. "I am sorry," said the note ho penned, "but I am forced to agree with your former decision that we were not meant for each other. We belong to different planes of life, and we never could be happy.

Chapter X- Sandwlched in Between those two famous examples of lopsidedness the David-Goliath and Dempsey-Willard encounters was another short and uneven battle in which James J. Jet irios whipped Jack Mutiroe. Monroe aspired to tcome heavyweight cham pion in 1904, out when he was pitted against Jeffries the aspiration ap peared to be his strongest claiia to a cbance at the honor. Early in the second round the ref eree thought Munroe had learned his lesson and held up Jeffries palm. The fighters met in San Francisco en August 2. Munroe defended him self fcr a few seconds by raising liis gloves ai-ove his head. He made sev eral rushes but they fen short ef their objective. Jeffries then knocked him down for six counts. Rising. Munroe's stomach collided with a left-hand punch and again he went down, remaining there for seven counts. As soon as he got up, Jeffries toppled him over a third time. Mun roe settled on his haunches, -his head wobbly, but arose before the last count. He clinched and the bell saved him. The second round had no sooner opened than he fell once more with a new sore spot. Even then he could not break himself of the habit of com ing back for more. This time Jef fries stabbed his left into Munroe's weary rihs. and the challenger draped himself over ihe champion' arm.

If condi tions in other counties of Kansas are similar to those In Saline county; the one-teacher school is losing; its place in' the state, as shown by a survey of the Ealine county schools. Just com pleted by W. H. Stewart, superintend ent of the Saline county schools. "The one-teacher school costs less than the two ot more teacher school." Mr. Stewart said, "but the one-teacher school is not satisfactory to the pa rents of today. That is why' parents are moving from the rural districts where adequate school facilities are not furnished." As proof of the fact that families with children to educate are moving from the rural districts, Mr. Stewart states that in 1915 there were 3,173 children of school age in the rural dis tricts of Saline county and 3,209 in Spuria. In 1S20, there were 2,982 children of school age in the rural districts and 6.555 in Salina. As proof that parents are realizing the worth of education, irrespective oTScost, Su perintendent Stewart states that the patrons of the one-teacher schools' of the county paid 3.07 mills for the support of their schools in 1920, the two or more teacher schools of the county cost 5.32, while the Kaijn schools cost 9.3. "We are living: in a high school age," according to Mr. Stewart, "and soon the young person who is not a high school graduate will be a back number. The rural high schools are carrying the high school -to the rural communities where the boys and giris get the privilege of attending high school and at the same time remain at home." GOOD JOB FOR A.

Today Motter announced the ap pointment of W. N. Skourup, professor of chemistry at the state agricultural college, as chemist in charge of the new state laboratory established in connection with the oil department. Skourup today made his first tests. Ax Falls Heavily. Already the ax has fallen, heavily on deputies in the field. One deputy called up over the long distance tele phone to protest. -Motter explained that. four men were waiting for the deputy's Job and he could follow in structions or quit. He preferred to follow instructions. jOne deputy with a political pull and a farm in Anderson county has been on the state pay roll as a'deputy inspector for a number of years. For some months he has given his atten tion to his farm. He employed a boy to gather shipping and test records from a refinery eighty-five miles away from the Anderson county farm. Now the deputy with his political pull and his farm is at. liberty to give his en tire time to intensive agriculture. Another deputy let his wife do the work. She made such tests as were made and sent the. reports to Topeka. The deputy .has been dropped from the payroll. A third deputy has gone on a vaca tion and reported that there would be no inspections in his district for a couple of months. Records show that the deputy's salary has amounted to ten times Inspection fees in his dis trict. There will be a bit of sad newsj for the deputy when he returns from his fishing trip., "There has been a lot of complaint to the effect that the inspectors didn't inspect," Motter said today.- "I have established the laboratory and will check all tests. Then we will know Just what is being done. We will also have a check on the efficiency of the inspectors. It won't be very popular with the inspectors but there are a lot of people waiting for the Jobs if any of the deputies are not satisfied." Get Out Papers Despite Strike. Boston, June 15.

He, got Judgment by de fault. ,i When, James returned from California recently and learned what had been done, he filed a motion to open -up Judgment.; The case was heard by a Jury, j On the special an swers returned, both sides are asking Judgment. The answers favored John. 'John claimed' he had an agreement with his father to the effect that if he would stay home and care for him he would give him the farm at his death. James claims that there was no such contract and that his father accompanied him to the court house in Topeka, where Tie signed a deed conveying half the farm to James and half to John. John claims the deed is not genuine. The elder Lyons testi fied at the time the deed was set aside that he had not signed it and knew nothing of it. and Bariev Ask for a Demon stntloa of the Blue Bird Waher SNAP SHOTS AT HOME NEWS The regular meeting of the Rota club will be held at the Elks' cllub at 6:15 o'clock this evening.

PROBE WAR DEALS j Special Bureau to Sift the Profiteers. Out Big Business Men Will 'the Government. Aid Washington, June 15. Organiza tion was already under "way today of the special-bureau in the department of Justice designed to conduct a sweep ing investigation or war time con tracts. Attorney General Daugherty. In an nouncing the decision of the depart ment to institute the inquiry, said the bureau would be composed of experts in various lines of business and would be headed by some "well known man of proven ability. The purpose of the investigation, the announcement said, was as much to clear honest individuals and firms from the suspicion .under, which most war contracts have fallen iij-the pub lic mind, as to bring the guilty to punishment. Ono Contract Annulled. On advice of the attorney general. President Harding has annulled war department contracts with the U. S3. Harness company for disposal of sur plus harness. Mr. Daugherty held these contracts to violate criminal code sections prohibiting participation by government officers or employes in such transactions. The contracts with the harness company involved many millions of dollars worth -of surplus harness held by tne war department. "The facts developed by the attor ney general." stated .a memorandum sent.tq Weeks today by Assistant Sec retary of War Wainwright, "led him to the conclusion that these Contracts had been entered into as a result of a conspiracy on the part of certain for mer temporary officers of the army to secure these contractu nn th trol of the large stocks on hand' for mwr uwu oenent. The unnouncement closely followed Daugherty's announcement that he would begin a prosecution of prof iteers in war contracts.

THE INDIANS KNEW A famous physician stated that more women might find relief from suffering through taking a medicine like Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound than through undergoing surgical operations, if they would only take it In time. At the first sign of female weakness, as indicated by backache, dullness, bearing down pains and nervous exhaustion, take this famous remedy of root and herbs, and avoid the serious consequences of delay. v The Indians and early settlers knew and benefited by Nature's Allies, the roots and herbs of the field.
