DRIVER IS MISSING Topeka-Lawrence Chanffenr's Disappearance a Mystery. j Has Mot Been Seen Since Early Wednesday Afternoon. HAD TWO NEGRO PASSENGERS Foul Play Feared by White Star Line Officials. Johnnie Was a Trusted Drive Between Two Cities. Mystery today surrounded the dis appearance of Johnnie Bush, a driver for the White Star stage line operat ing between Topeka and Lawrence. Bush left Lawrence Wednesday after noon at 2:30 o'clock and has not been seen or heard from since. The circumstances of the case have aroused the fears of the White Star officials and employes that Bush may have met with foul play. Arthur Hes tand, the "starter" at the Lawrence end of the line, declared that Bush left the -city with two negroes in his car. He said he heard Bush tell them that he would not leave until he had a full load. The negroes then asked him, Hestand was quoted as saying, how much a full load would be worth. Bush replied it would cost $7. The negroes then stated they would pay him the full price if he would leave at once for Topeka, Hestand said. The fears of White Star officials were enhanced with the remembrance that a driver for a Kansas City stage company operating between Kansas City and Lawrence, recently was taken from his car and tied to a tree, where he remained the entire night, f before he was rescued. It is feared that 1 Bush's two passengers may have ap propriated the car to their own use. Ho Drove a Nash. Bush drove a 1919 Nash which he owned. It was a car with a dark body and yellow wheels and carried a spare tire secured with a cable, one end of which hung nearly to the ground. The license and engine numbers were not available when the case was reported to the authorities today. Bush had worked for the White Star line for about three months and was regarded as steady and reliable. He was not addicted to the use of liquor and was always prompt in his duties. He was never absent without first letting his employers know when and why he was leaving, it was de clared. He lived in Oakland. His brother, Charles Bush, also drives a car for the White Star company. C. F. Fisher, chief of police at Law rence in conference over long distance telephone with The State Journal, said this afternoon that the case had iot been reported to him.- He said that no crime had been committed there Tuesday night, or near that time, so far as he knew.

Campaign. Efforts to intimidate Governor Al len's family will not interfere with his plan to go into Montgomery county, the stronghold of the Ku Klux Klan. He pians to direct a broadside at the Klan activities and leadership in a speech at Coffeyville Saturday night. The governor today completed plans for his speech in spite of recent threats from unknown sourees. The first move to frighten members of the governor's household with threats was made Wednesday night, it became known at the state' house today. Two telephone messages were received by Mrs. Allen advising her that the governor was to be tarred and feathered during the night. The messages came early in the evening and before Governor Allen returned from a speaking trip. Police on Hand. Origin of the telephone calls is not known. Information regarding the calls reached the police, however, and special plain clothes men and an extra motorcycle cop were assigned to pa trol the district surrounding the ex ecutive residence at Topeka bouievard and Eleventh street. Governor Allen said today that he knew nothing of the police action, but Mrs. Allen had told him about the warning phono messages. Mrs. Allen came home from the hospital ten days ago follow ing a serious operation. Frequently ananymous letters are received at the governor's office con veying threats and warnings. Most of them have concerned themselves with Governor Allen's action in handling strike problems and in enforcement of the industrial court law. The governor has given these communications but little- concern. Sending of warnings tothe governor's family, tho, is an en tirely new move. Governor Makes No Charges. Governor Allen declined to discuss the phone messages today. He said he did not desire to comment on the move and had no fixed opinion as to whether the messages came from a supporter cf the Klan or from, radi cal Jabor, representative who sought to, use-h cloak of the Klan to carry out a eowardly plan of intimidation. "What- is more," said the governor with a chuckle, "I don't know why they should have been so careful in selecting last night as the particular time when X was to be tarred and feathered." Detailed plans for the governor's antl Klan speech were made today in a telephone communication vwith Montgomery county Republicans. The governor goes to Atchison tonight, will spend Friday in Wichita, Welling ton and Wlnfield and will speak Sat urday night in Coffeyville with the possibility of an afternoon meeting in Caney.

The Invitation will bo handed to the state department m Washington probably tomorrow by the French, British and Italian em bassies. Eleven invitations will be issued in all to the United States. Turkey, Greece, France, Great Britain, Italy. Japan, Jugo-Siavia and Rumania, for peace conference and to the soviet Russian and Bulgarian government to take part in the discussion of the question of the Dardanelles. Comment Is Reserved. Washington, Oct. 26. Pending re ceipt in Washington of the official invitation for American participation in the Lausanne peace conference, of ficial comment as to the American at titude is withheld. There is every rea son to believe the trend of opinion in government circles does not favor American intervention in the, confer ence beyond the possible appointment of an unofficial observer. Shou.d the allied invitation reach Washington in time, unquestionably it will come in for consideration by the cabinet at tomorrow's session. That discussion must, of necessity, be pred icated upon the fact that the-Lausanne meet.ng is a peace conference at which belligerent nations propose to arrive at a treaty of peace as be tween themselves. The United States is not and has not been a belligerent in the near eastern troubles. Friend ly relations between the United States and Turkey have never been inter ruptd. May Send Observer, Only. An unofficial observer, it is general ly believed, could present the Ameri can viewpoint and pave the way for ultimata American participation in individual treaties, with the belliger ent powers concerned to be negotiated after the Lausanne treaty has been ratified by its signa'ories.

OLD PARLIAMENT IS DISSOLVED Proclamation Was Signed hy King This Morning. Glasgow Continues To Be Hot Bed in the Election. (By tne Associated Pren.) Glasgow, Oct. 26. Prime- Minister Bonar Law was unanimously adopted today as the conservative and union ist candidate for parliament from the central division of Glasgow. A reso lution of confidence m him was passed. (By tbe Associated Press.) London, Oct. 26. A proclamation dissolving parliament was signed by King George this morning at a privy council held at Sandringham, the royal estate in Norfolk. The procla mation will be gazetted this afternoon. The proclamation fixes November 20 as the date for the new parlia ment to assemble. The king also signed a proclamation summoning Scottish peers to meet at Holyrood palace November 16 to elect the sixteen representative peers of Scotland to serve in the new par liament. Oratory bv aspirants for seats in the new parllanfent fills the land. Thir teen hundred candidates have up to now entered the campaign for mem bership in the house of commons. Of these, about 425 are conservatives. In riTund numbers. labor has 400 candi dates in the field, the Asquithian or free liberals S00 and the Lloyd Georgean or national liberals 200. Two Lead tho Field. To obtain an outright majority In the new parliament any one party would have to elect 315 candidates. It will be seen therefore that the con servatives and laborites are the only two with enough candidates in the field to obtain Independent majority. Their organizations have been whipped into far better shape than those of the other parties. The laborite manifesto holds a prominent place In all the morning papers today. The Morning Post dubs it a dry document, and "rather obvious failure to dissemble the iron claws of communism in the nice woolen glove of charity." The West minster Gazette admits that there is much in the laborite manifesto which tbe liberals readiljr endorse, but says the task to which labor has set Itself is herculean and would need the work of many parliaments to complete. Glasgow Is Center of Interest. One of the main centers of interest in the whole election is Glasgow, where the new prime minister, An drew Bonar Law, has two opponents in his campaign for re-election as the member from the central division of that city. Former Bailie Mitchell is his opponent on the labor ticket and Sir George Palah is opposing him as a free liberal.. Labor is making a strong campaign among the large population of Glas gow. At present only one of the fif teen constituents in that city is rep resented by a labor member. One of the candidates in Glasgow is the com munist, John MacLean, whose term of twelve months in prison for sedition expired yesterday. Coming at this time his new freedom brings to mind the fact that he was released while undergoing a similar punishment in 1918 in order that he could participate in the election of that year. Labor Leadors Aroused. Reports that Premier Bonar Law In his expected reform of administra tive departments, might relegate the works of the ministry of labor to some other department, have strongly aroused the leaders of the labor party, who will vigorously oppose any such change. The labor ministry, founded in a small way in 1916, has grown to be a oig department, with an an nual expenditure of almost 6.000,000 pounds for salaries and allowance alone. SUPPORT LEAGUE OF NATIONS. Bonar Law Also Promises to Co. operate) With the Irish. (By tbe Asa or la ted Press.) London, Oct. 26. Andrew Bonar Law, as leader of the Unionist party, in a manifesto issued this afternoon, declared one of the tasks of that party if it is returned to power, will be to make good the Anglo-Irish treaty both in letter and in spirit and to co-operate with the Irish government. The manifesto declares it will be the government's earnest aim, if re turned, to give wholehearted and practical support to the league of na tions to 'u'fill the obligations Great Britain has undertaken abroad but not to extend her commitments, but pre ferably to curtail them, and to main tain friendship and good understand, ing with the United eta tea. Mr. Bonar Law in the manifesto said it was the unionist party's pur pose if the self governing dominions approved, to summon an economical conference in an effort to discover how the vast trade which the resources of the empire made possible could best be developed by mutual co-operation. TO ISSUE NEW SECURITIES Two Corporations to Plan to Seno Total of $200,000, Two Kansas public service corpora tions were today given authority to issue additional securities. Tbe se curities will be issued on approval of the public utilities commission. The Pawnee Power Light com pany of Lamed will be permitted to increase its stock issue f 125 000 in order to cover the expense of purchas ing the Kinsley plant. The Pawnee Power A Light company is a unit of the united properties and will con solidate the Larned and Kinsley utilities. The Southwestern Utilities corpora tion was granted permission to issue 275,000 worth of first mortgage gold bonds in order to provide funds for extentions and betterments of proper ties in southwestern Kansas.

Murphy, director of the order for Kansas and dean of the national board of directors, was the other speaker. He congratulated the wood men of the state on the progress which they have made, and said: A man's citizenship is measured by his service to his state and his country.

Crawford of the industrial court. Daring the same period the seven of fices received 70 applications for help wanted and referred a total of people to Jobs. The offices received notifications from 870 of these that work had been obtained. The Salina district had 239 people unemployed during the week, the largest number of any of the seven districts. Topeka reported 230 Idle. The Hutchinson and Wichita offices each reported 207 persons out of work and Kansas City recorded 206. Par sons reported 83 idle and Emporia continued to lead the list, reporting onlv 19 people seeking jobs. Calls for common labor in the cities are about as usual with the largest percentage of placements in building construction, stone quarries and coun ty road work, Judge Crawford said. There has, however, been a slight in crease in the demand for single farm hands during the week. "A surplus of 'floaters' during the 'past vpek was noticeable," the judge said. "Their inquiries have been prin cipally for corn shucking and most of them have moved on as this work has not yet commenced in this district. "Wages have the, appearance of per manency." Judge "Crawford reported to the federal labor director at Wash ington. MUST ADJUST GAS PUMPS Grade of Gasoline Makes Difference in Measure, Court Holds. Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 26. Motorists will be interested in a test made in connection with a court trial here in support of the contention that in some: instances certain of the less modern filling: stations' pumps needs different adjustments to accurately measure i various grades of gasoline. A Memphis filling station owner re- j fused to pay for repairs on his pump i after customers had complained that it was giving short measure. The re pair man produced a quantity of standard gasoline, and proved to the court that the repaired pump meas ured it correctly. But when other gasoline was tried, the pump gave short measure. The court held that the repairs must be paid for and that the station owner must learn how to adjust the pump for the various grades of gasoline handled, if full measure was to be given.

WANT HARDING REMOVED Senator Capper Joins FiRht Against Federal Reserve Board Head. Senator Arthur Capper has joined in the demand for removal of W. P. G. Harding as governor of the federal reserve 'board. In a lengthy letter to President Harding the Junior Kansas senator urges that he be dropped from service. Recently there has been a big fight on Governor Harding in the agricul tural and livestock producing districts. It is charged that he has been unfair and has discriminated against tne farmer and stockman. Charges are to the effect that severe deflation rul ings placed most of the burden on the crop grower. Governor Harding was in Topeka a year ago for a conference with farm ers and stockmen regarding federal aid for farm activities. There is a feeling among the farm leaders, tho, that he has been unfriendly and un fair to their interests and demands have been made for his removal. Senator Capper joined this week in the demand when he sent a letter to the president asking that a new board head be named.

Whether the Prairie Pipe Line com pany, a Standard Oil subsidiary, must pay state taxes on 34,000,000 barrels of oil in transit during the last, five years may be determined in an early suit. The state tax commission, on advice of the attorney general's de partment, has demanded that the pipe line company pay on large oil reserves on March 1 of recent years. The company contends that the oil was in transit and for that reason exempt from taxation. The Prairie Pipe Line company is the transportation corporation of 'the Standard Oil company in Kansas. According to complaints by the state nearly 84,000,000 barrels of oil owned by the Stanard of Kansas and held in Wilson county tanks or in the refinery, escaped taxation. The reserves ranged from 2,559,813 barrels in 1918 to 16, 949,903 barrels this year. Last year, it is contended, 9,751,645 barrels of oil escaped payment of tax by the pipe line company. Demand had been made on the pipe line company for payment of the taxes which may amount to more than $100,000. The contention of the com pany is that the oil was held by the company which operates as a common carrier and for that reason came un der transportation acts and not the general state tax provisions. It is likely that the issue will be deter, mined in a suit before the state courts. WOLFF AGENT UNDER ARREST Bondsmen Charge A. W. Bernard, of Kansas City, With Embezzlement. Kansas City, Oct.' 25.

URGE CHANGE IN SCHOOLS Report of Educational Survey Pro poses Elimination of State Board. Reports of the newly appointed edu cational survey committee which orig inally Indicated elimination of several high salaried offices, now seemingly proposes a change in management of: state schools which would produce a j few soft snaps. Inst ad of a state board of three members each receiv-i ing $3,600 a year the board proposes' a single advisory head position which' would carry a salary of $10,000 or, more a year. t The report which was compiled by Dr. George A. Zook, was taken to the governor a office a few days ago and promptly taken back again. It was I I explained that it was recalled for a. few corrections. On the basis of the e-pnArnl rpnnrl n mibmitTprt. 1rir it start shouting their hallelujahs too soon. First statements from the com mittee were to the effect that they proposed to eliminate the three board positions. Now it seems that' they have created a, job fatter, softer and easier than that of the combined board. Recommendations of the survey committee are to be submitted to the legislature at the same time other re quests regarding educational reforms are made. The new office carrying a salary greater than that of any per son now serving the state would be known as super chancellor of state schools. He would have jurisdiction over all state schools, but his authority would not extend to other institutions. Provision is made for an advisory board appointed by the governor. The advisory board members would be se lected because of their patriotic irrfl pulses and would work with the $10, 000 super chancellor and their re ward would be entirely in the form of glory.

Washing ton, I. C. In the report of the grand jury which investigated the Herrin massa cre, appears the following: "The ease with which firearms were obtained causes the grand Jury to believe that legislation should be enacted to regu late or prohibit the manufacture or indiscriminate ist-le of firearms." The word "indiscriminate" might well be omitted from the proposed law. Pro duction and distribution of firearms should bo in the hands of the govern ment exclusivel'. If it had been so there would have been no massacre at Herrin. Three men in Jackson coun ty, this state, have Just paid with their lives the penalty of unrestricted deal ing in firearms. The benefits to accrue to the Re publicans from Bill White's action in feeding McAdoo until the latter be came ill are open to doubt. It might have been better for the O. O. P. if he had been permitted to go on mak ing speeches. Mr. McAdoo has been Visiting se--ere criticism upon the railroads and calling public attention to th6 inade quacy of the service. Yet rio man In the United States did so much to bring about whatever inefficiency exists in transportation as did the former di rector general of railroads. In Paris it is reported there are expressions of relief and satisfaction that an "unprincipled Juggler" la out of power and of hope that the new British ministry will be more sympa thetic with France. Never ai there a greater example of ingratitude. It is hard to say where France would have been today had it not been (for Lloyd George. Tin: saMe old cry. It has long been the custom of poli ticians to place responsibility for eco nomic ills on Wall street or on the railroads. Just now the railroads are bearing the brunt of attack. They are charged with holding back prosperity thru maintaining too high freight rates. But the country actually needs ran more than it needs lower freight rates. Few of the roads have in recent years paid reasonable dividends on their stock and few Are now paying a reasonable return on their property valuation. The question of watered stock is, therefore, not involved. An inspection of the records of the inter state commerce commission proves that the roads have not been making the net earnings necessary to attract cepital to railroad investment. Undoubtedly many wrongs were committed by a few railroad mari-arei-s some twenty years or mora ago, and those wrongs brought on the ex cessive restriction, but it la doing the general publlo no good to seek re venge by crippling the transportation service. The man who has wheat or apples or coal or livestock ready for market wants it moved when the com modities are ready and the market is right. Delay may mean a loss far ex ceeding the difference in freight rates paid and those demanded. While the prices of farm products are being kept down, and there is prospect that a large part of the crops may even be left to rot because of inade quate transportation, men who pre tend to be friends of the farmers are going among them preaching the doc trine that the unquestionably bad plight in which they find themselves is due to high railway rates, and that another great drive must be made by them at once for reductions of freight rates. They are telling the farmers that the railways are making large profits, altho the average return earned by them this year on their valuation has been only 4 per cent, and In August, partly as a result of recent reductions in rates, was only 2.65 per cent. They are telling the farmers that the valua tion of the railways is grossly exces sive, altho It was made mainly by the interstate commerce commission, a body which certainly never In the past has shown Itself unduly favorable to the railways, under a valuation law of which Senator La Follette was the au thor. They are advocating the res toration to state commissions of the rate-making power they had and reck lessly abused before the transporta tion act was passed, and the repeal of the rate-making provisional of the transportation act Whose so-called "guaranty" clause expired by limita tion on March 1, 1922, and the only important remaining part of which Is a provision directing the interstate commerce commission in regulating rates to take Ihto consideration the need of the country for adequate transportation. The automobile manufacturers are finding that reduction of price stim ulates trade. The plan Is commended to manufacturers of and dealers In other articles desired by the public. When prices are reduced an Increased volume of business usually compen sates for the lowered rate of profit. Where Mr. Ford leads tt 11 reasonably safe for business men to follow. He has demonstrated the value of his system. THE BUSINESS REVIVAL. For more than a year past the pub lic has been receiving continued as surances that prosperity and a busi ness revival were Just around the corner. Today the consensus of opin ion in financial circles appears to. be that these conditions have arrived. "Business is pioklng up and the outlook is better the wohd over with few exceptions," in the opinion of Un cle Sam's overseas trade experts called together by the American Manufacturers' Export association in convention at New York. Heading a group of commerce department re gional trade Advisers, Dr. Julius Klein, director of the United States bureau of foreign and domestic com merce, voiced the opinion that "con ditions almost everywhere show de cided improvement." The improvement in general busi ness conditions domestically contin ues to be reassuring. For the last re ported week car loadings were 968,000, a figure rot far below the record level. Cotton has now gone well above 23 cents for the' December future, which ia itself a high record on this move ment, while wheat has continued Its steady advance to a figure around $1.12. The effect is to put an unusual amount ot purchasing power Into the hands of agricultural communities. Railroad earnings, altho low for the country as a Whole, owing to strike expenses, have shown tip very satis factorily in Individual cases. Appar ently well founded rumors Of In creased dividends are In circulation with respect to a number of railroad issues, says Henry Clews in his Finan cial Review, and consolidation pros pects are again more positive. Bradstreet's says: "Viewed as a whole, with the 'possible exception of collections, which are still, relatively speaking, backward, the general dis tributive trade and industrial situa tion Is about the best since the late spring of 1920." Secretary Hoovep and others, in public addresses during the past week or so, have pointed out equally en couraging factors In public, business. Federal expenses have been cut about $1,700,000,000 from the peak of war outlay, and are believed to be getting down toward low levet. A reported subscription to Secretary Mellon's $500,000,000 offering, amounting to nearly three times the face of the amount put before the public, shows the presence of 'phenomenally high savings in the banks of the country and in Jhe hands of Investors gener ally. The comptroller of the currency re ports savings at a high record level, time deposits In national banks In creasing by nearly $1,000,000,000 be tween December 31, 1919, and the middle of the present year. The im proved position of publio credit Is noted by Mr. Hoover and others as good evidence of the stronger position in which the government Jias placed itself during the past year or more. Until the United States supreme court hands down a decision in the whole matter, enforcement of the Daugherty mandate, as it affects for eign vessels, is to be suspended. For eign ship owners have been granted ah indefinite stay by the treasury de partment, which la charged with en iforcement ot the ruling. This action indicates that unless the court be more expeditious than la its custom the sea will remain wet for a consid erable period of time. What effect the situation, as it stands, win liiv nn the ship subsidy bill' becomes prob lematical, but probably it will aid ita passage. The proponents of the sub sidy are unlikely to make anv mints ke except the one Involved in a belief tnat the country favors the subsidy. According to a new United States law an American woman who marries a foreigner retains her citizenship In this country. The law further pro vides that foreign women who marry American citizens do not by that act become citizens ot this country. The result has been confusion; a British woman marrying an American, by the laws of her country is no longer Brit ish, and by the law of this country Is not an, American. Much embarrass ment Is being caused by questions of passports, since each office, American and British, sends the British wife of an American citizen to the other's office for papers. So it seems that in acquiring a husband a woman may become a political outcast. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FRED ERIC 3. HASKDT, Director, Washington, p. C. LEAGUE OF NATIONS AT WORK Washington, D. C, Oct. 23. If the league of nations is successful in set tling the perplexing problems which have arisen out of the Near Eastern situation, as seems not improbable, this service will constitute the first one of world significance undertaken and accomplished by that body. The league has been so much the subject of partisan discussion in the United, States that it is sometimes difficult for the American people to think of it ae a going concern. When the treaty of Versailles was up for rati fication in the senate, the league of nations was the principal bone of con tention. It resulted finally in the de feat of the treaty and the American people have dropped quite naturally into the habit of thinking that be cause the United States repudiated the league, there is no league. This is quite contrary to the fact. The league of nations is in business and is an active element in interna tional affairs. True, It has no offi cial business with the United States because this country is not a member, but many other countries are ana there is plenty for the organization to do. The Turkish controversy fur nishes an opportunity to perform a really big task, if it is capable, but the years between the present Crisis and the first establishment of the league have not been idle. The principal publicity which the league of nations has enjoyed on this side of the water in the last two or three years has been in connection with- conferences, most of which have been abortive. The great gatherings at Brussels and Genoa have been par tially under the auspices of the league. These have failed to accomplish defi nite objectives. Meantime, however, the league has been plugging away at routine Jobs and has been accomplish ing trijm. Little publicity has at tended these exploits because they were for the most part of local In terest. The purpose of the league is to prevent International disputes from simmering over a period of years and eventually developing into war. Fol lowing is a brief outline of what has been actually done in a quiet and businesslike way in the last two or three years: What Has Been Done.' The province of Upper Silesia pre sented problen.s of a vexed nature be cause of conflicting aims of various races and nationalities residing with in Its borders and especially because of the rich natural products of the land. The league has taken up this question and in a series of conferences has settled amicably practically all the disputed points. A few minor matters remain under consideration but are In a fair way to settlement. Lithuania and Poland, soon after their erection as nations, got into a boundary dispute and each challenged the sovereignty of the other over cer tain territory. The league has been at work on this and reports substan tial progress, htstile demonstrations having ceased. Albania complained to the league that the Serb-Croat-Slovene State (formerly Serbia) was encroaching On her boundaries. This negotiation has been in progress for some time, a commission of inquiry has been at work and a program is being worked out for the settlement of the dispute. Meantime, hostilities have ceased and the parties have given evidence of be ing willing to await the decision or the league. The first case to be completely and amicably settled by the league is that relating to the Aaland Islands. These islands, located in Baltic waters, are of great strategic importance and the league undertook a negotiation pro- viding for their neutralisation and non-fortification. It 'ill ibe remem bered that the Island of Heligoland, the great German naval base which was not even scratched during the war, was regarded by the allies as so grim a threat that the treaty of Ver sailles provided for its demolition. The Aaland Islands occupied a simi lar strategio position. Sweden had the control of them and the league undertook to remove the menace. It succeeded in arranging a convention which has been finally ratified by the principal European powers and which is in effect an agreement for the non fortification of the island. The league has had under negotia tion the problem of Armenia and of resolving the mixed differences of that troubled section. The new trou bles In the Near East have embar rassed these transactions seriously but it is expected that if the league gets into the whole Near Eastern question, the Armenia matter can be worked out in conjunction with the Turkish question. New Questions Taken Up. A new question, taken up by the league comparatively recently, relates to Eastern Galicia. The league has invited the attention of the powers to the importance of settling the status of this territory and plans are afoot to hold conferences on the question. Another new question now in pro cess of diplomatic negotiation relates to the province of Eastern Carella. Finland feels that Soviet Russia has been encroaching on her sovereignty in Eastern Carella and the matter has been referi id to the league. The Baltic states, Latvia, Lithuania, Es thonia and Poland have nationalistic interests in this region and are having a voice in the settlement. The league of nations has been con tinuously concerned with the govern ment ot the Saar Basin and hae been proceeding with administrative work of a wide variety Including the af fairs of the Free City of Danzig, the protection of minorities and the adju dication of minor, boundary disputes. A great technical organization has been functioning steadily, gathering and studying statistics of the various nations of the world. These include finance, transportation, navigation, hydroelectric development and other power, navigation of the air and a score of other subjects. The other great international body which the treaty of Versailles created is the international labor office. This Is not an adjunct of the league of na tions but a separate body maintaining a large staff tt Geneva '7ith branch offices thruout the world. The United States, not having ratified the treaty. is not a member, but the United States is so important industrially that the office maintains an American corre spondent, Ernest Greenwood, whose headquarters are in Washington. The international labor office seeks to improve the condition of labor thruout the world and, to that end, already has obtained the ratification by signatory members of the follow ing conventions: I Regulation of use of white phos phorus, which is dangerous to health ot match workers; standardization of hours of labor of women; night work; child labor, and the regulation of em ployment ot women before and after childbirth. The office is working on agreements affecting various other matters vital to laboring people, chief among which are unemployment, minimum age of employment; reciprocity of treatment of workers of different nations; con trol of anthrax; lead poisoning; vital statistics; employment for seamen; a seamen's code; rights of workers to associate; weekly periods of rest for workers and various types of insur ance for the working classes. The office holds annual conven tions and at each progress has been reported. It la hoped to standardize thruout the world the conditions of labor in various important Industries, bringing' the condition of the worker to a higher plane. J Both the league and the labor of fice are subsidized by the nations which have signed the treaty and both give every indication of being on a firm and permanent basis. Whether either will assist in prevent ing war is a matter concerning which there is wide difference of opinion but it generally is conceded that these bodies perform a useful function in assembling Important Information and Improving conditions of life in the countries which support their efforts. Dorothy DLx Talks BT DOROTHY DEC Westers niches rata W Women and Weddings 2. Another reason given for mothers desiring their daughters to marry, but not their sons, is voiced in the old saw that says "My son's my son 'til he gets him a wife, but my daughter's my daughter all of her life." Undoubtedly this is true to a large extent. Women seldom go to their husbands' families. Men nearly alwavs go to their wives' families. It is the daughters who care lor the old par ents, and more men are supporting their In-laws than are taking care of their own fathers and mothers. But I think that the reasons moth ers feel so differently about their son's and daughter's marriage Is be cause no woman ever quite loves her daughter as she does her son. Be tween mother and daughter is the re pulsion of the same sex. Between mother and son is the attraction of difference in sex. Mothers and daughters clash because their inter ests and occupations are the same. Mothers and sons live in harmony be cause tneir lives now in separate channels. Besides, a mother under stands that the love her daughter gives a husband is not the love she gives her mother, but no woman can comprehend that her son gives his wife a different affection from that he bestows upon his .mother. Thus it Is that mothers are consumed with a frantio and futile jealousy "'when tney see the manchild they have borne, and worshipped, putting an other woman before them in their hearts. The chief reason, however, why Lwomen are eager to marry off their uauBiiicia j uccuuati Liiey .are still bound by the old superstition that a girl is somehow, safe and sheltered from the storms of life when she gets married. Much evidence to the con trary does not seem to shake this childlike faith in matrimony, tho probably no two weddings in a hun dred end like the fairy tale "and they lived happily ever after." Possibly mother's own marriage is nothing but a bitter warning against tne perils of the holy estate, never theless she is eager to have her girls try it on the off-chance they may happen to draw a prize in the lottery and not a blank. Very often a wom an offers up her daughter as a living sacrifice to- her pride. She feels that there is a. certain stigma to her daughter being an old maid that it shows that the girl lacked charms and attractions that other girls possess, and so she nags the poor creature in to marrying the first man who comes along. Many women frankly say that a bad marriage is better than no marriage at all. They have no idea of life apart from domesticity, and imagine tne woman without a husband and children is misearable. They do not know that it is only the exceptionally fortunate married woman who is as happy, as prosperous, and as free as her unmarried sister, who has her career, her good Job,- her financial independence, and her million and one interests in the world. No one can argue for a moment that the kind of marriages that are made in heaven the real mating of a man and woman wnom God in tend? tor each other, and who give to each other a love, and sympathy, and comradeship that never fail is the happiest lot In life. If every mother could secure that for her daughter, she would be right in mak ing every effort to get it for her. But why want her to marry, just to be a-marrying? And if the rewards of the Ideal marriage are so great, why not be equally keen on them for son Nobody knows. Not even the moth er herself. She only knows that as she bends above Mamie's cradle she is deciding that she will have her married in brocaded white satin, and real lace, and that as she walks Tommy with the colic she is hating the unborn t girl who will some day be his wife. For that's the way with mothers. (Copyright, 1922. by the Wheeler Syn dicate Inc.) JUST FOLKS BT EDGAR A. GUEST. AIJTFMX. The trees are spending their treasure now, Treasure of silver and bronze and gold, Riches are falling from branch and bough, More than Che lap of the earth can hold. Dar by day thru 'the busy year The trees have tolled in the burning sun, Bnt now the end of their time is near. The frost has come and their work Is done.

Beauty smiles on the fields afsr. A flood cf treasure the forest spills, Richer than coins of a monarh are. Fluttering leaver of bronx and gold Gleam in the sun of the shortening day.

We haven't read the letters of Mrs. Mills to the Rev. Mr. Hall. We have a well-defined opinion as to what is fit and proper for a middle-aged mar ried man to read. But we know some thing of the reckless abandon of women when emotion finds its vent in the written word. And our conclusion is that the Rev. Mr. Hall was bored stiff by the epistolary excesses of his friendly coi respondent. What a man likes is to be chased at a moderate rate of speed. He doesn't want to be run down. Upton Sinclair has written to a friend to say he meant his book about Jesus quite seriously. No one who has followed Mr. Sinclair's muddy trail thru contemporary literature can doubt that he is entirely serious. If he had a sense of humor he wouldn't be writing books; he'd be laughing at himself. Speaking of books and we seem unable permanently to keep the con versation in other channels we've finished the rereading of ."Seth's Brother's Wife." It isn't as good as we thought, but It's a good story yet. "Seth's Brother's Wife" is a study of ambition, unsanctioned love, politics, crime, petty meanness, jealousy and prejudice. The characters, for the the most part, are out of the soil of rural New York, and that is where they belong. Incredible as it may seem, Mr. Frederic, who was a high grade writing-man with half a dozen novels to his credit, knew something of politics. The chronicle of politics which runs thru his story is veracious. The campaign and convention of which he writes might have hap pened and probably did happen. It is true he nominated and elected a re form congressman, but knew enough of the game tacitly to admit that the achievement was not an outstanding one. When a contemporary fictionist elects his here to office he considers the redemption of the world as good as accomplished. The Column's Lincoln, Neb., cor respondent sends the following word Jaabe Ruth and Meusel played here today. Red Randall, southsiding for the Lawler Sporting Goods company team, fanned the Babe his first two times up. On two subsequent appear ances at the plate he grounded gently to carter at second. Meusel then went in to pitch against the Knights of Columbus and the Babe made a three-base hit off his teammate. The consensus here is that Meusel is a poor pitcher. Meanwhile, we wish to be recorded as a pronounced skeptic on the story that the Babe s failure to hit in the series cost him $50,000 theatrical contract. A manager who is sucker enough to offer Ruth a $50,000 theatrical contract would be sucker enough to go thru with it. We hesitate to -take Issue with a statesman, but Mr. Ford may finally go too far. It is. we believe, nossible to make a motor ar so cheap that no poor man will buy it. A man's motor car represents his ultimate in luxury. There are very few willing publicly to admit they can't afford to spend more than $300 for what is popularly regarded as pleasure s chief asset. We don't have much fun, but the fact that Yale varsity scored two touchdowns on the scrubs was con sidered of sufficient interest to make a place ,for itself in the news helped save the day for us1.

The gear in which you drive your life makes every difference in the world The difference between accomplish ment with ease and failure under dif ficulties. Everyone who has ever driven a car knows that the most ground is covered when in "high," and with the least wear and tear and in the most com fortable manner. People who accomplish much, work In "high" nearly all the time; whereas those who are always floundering use the low speeds. In other words, they sweat and strive under difficulties which they would easily avoid just the minute they shifted to "high." The low speeds of a car are ar ranged only for emergencies when there are hills of unusual grade to climb, or where a. special pull is de manded. And that is exactly the way that a human bein? iat built. He. too. has j speeds. It Is up to him to choose tne right ones and tne right speeas lor difficulties are the low ones, but for the average, everyday tasks of life. high speed is the natural'' one. Use it and you will aro farl But bear in micd one thing you can't start on high. TJse the low speed to get up steam and momentum and then shift quickly to high. And don't drop into low again, except where it is absolutely necessary for some unusual difficulty. It has been well said tnat many people travel all their days in low speed and don't know It. Many peo ple walk around day after day only half awake and don't know It- Wake upspeed upl In which gear do you drive? Tou can easily tell by the ease with which you. ride (work), or by the manner in which ;-ou get things done. If things don't sound rignt or you don't seem to be getting anywhere, better stop and go over your bodily and mental machines and take in voice. Maybe you need the "shop." In nine cases out ot ten, nowever, you will discover that you are wearing out your engine by traveling in too low a speed. Begin today to take tnmgs on high" even the long looking hill!

Nellie entered at once upon her new duties, and found them far more agreeable than she had anticipated. She found a letter from Mr. Fallon waiting her upon her return telling her that she must oall upon him in anything; of which he could be of service. Enclosed was a statement saying she had been invaluable to him as private secretary, and so forth. There was little else save reiterated wishes for her happiness and assur ances of his Continued friendship. She showed the letter to Mrs. Rob erts, answered it telling him what she was doing and thanking him, then put his note carefully away. Her note to him was hard to write, seemed very cold and inadequate, but she could do no better and Mrs. Roberts approved. They resumed their quiet life at the boarding house, save that now Mrs. Roberts went out more frequently be cause of Nellie's dependence UDon her. "I'm growing young again with you," the old lady said when Nellie protested. I was shriveling up stay ing in so much. A concert or a good play doesn t hurt me once in a while.' Nellie always accompanied her to church on Sunday morning, and she declared that was recompense for anything she did in going out occa sionally in the evening. "Old people get lonely, my dear. just as often as young ones. I used to feel quite forlorn marching off to church alone. Sitting beside strang ers. Now it is a. delight with you to sit beside me, to walk to and from the church with me. I feel as if I had a young daughter of my own." Once after she had talked in this strain to Nellie and she had gone to her room to lay off her things before the early Sunday dinner, an institution in the boarding house, she said to her self: "It pays to be good! Pays in every way. If I wasn t good, hadti t kept myself from doing wrong things, dear Mrs. Roberts never would have been so sweet to me. She would have known. No one could pretend with her. I guess those traveling men at Miss Carter's did me a good turn even if I did hate them so. I was young and silly and if they hadn't shown me how people looked upon, girls who were foolish and wicked I might The boarders had all been kind up on their return; had ignored Nellie's broken engagement, and treated her as if it never had been. All but Miss Pitt. Said she: "I guess you Weren't very much in love with your fiance, Miss Riley. You look better and stronger than I have ever seen you. Most girls if they were really in love would have faded away." "Like they do in novels?" Nellie asked flushing. Why wouldn't Miss ntt let her alone T "In life too, Miss Riley. A real love isn't to be laid aside like an old coat. It is too lasting." "We don't all wear our hearts on our sleeves. Miss Pitt. When an in cident is closed, isn't it wise to forget it; to cease to talk of it?" Mrs. Rob erts said in her quiet voice. "I always said it wasn't a suitable match. Events have proved I was right." Mis3 Pitt as usual had the last word. "You must not let her annoy you. Nellie," Mrs. Roberts said when they were alone. "She is a poor, soured old maid I suppose I should call her a bachelor girl, but It doesn't seem as if she ever had been young. She is to be pitied for making herself dis liked." "But she draws everyone's attention to me. It is so embarrassing," Nellie complained. "I know, dear; but If you don't no tice it she will soon find something else to talk of. I feel sorry for her." "You're a saint! You'd be sorry for the old Nick himself!" Nellie returned. now laughing. "I will try not to let her bother me. I know I have done right." "I am sure of it, my dear. In spite of a certain grief you could not help feeling I am sure you are happier than when you thought you were to be Mr. Fallon's wife. Isn't it so?" "Perhaps Nellie conceded. "I don't -fret and worry any more. If that's a sign." "I think it, is and a good one. Mr. Right will come along some day. Then there will be no worries, no frets." (Tomorrow Back to the old ways.) Dinner Stories One snappy day recently Johnny's mother sent him to the store to get half a dozen eggs. On his return he handed her a paper bag containing six articles, which tho egg-shape, were certainly never laid by a hen. "What are these?" eaid his mother. "It was eggs I sent you fas-." "Weil, ma." raid Johnny, "the streets were awful slippery, an' so I thought I'd better get lemons in stead." "What has come oyer Blinks?

Mary Curtis gathered her children about her one morning and broke the news to them that their Grandmother Johnson had given up her home and was coming to live with them. "And." she concluded, "I expect you to make the sacrifices cheerfully which this wiM entail. You must re member that your grandmother is well along in years, that a perpetual racket cannot help but annoy her at times and that she deserves the con sideration due old age." With such warnings ringing In their ears the Curtis youngsters, from seventeen-year-old Wayne down to six- year-old Janet, were decidedly on tneir nest Denavior tne first few days after their grandmother's arrival. Al tho she was their mother's own moth er her long 'residence in the west had meant that for years she had not seen them nor they her, and it must be admitted she did not turn out to be the feeble, white-haired old lady ot their expectations. Even her own daughter thought inwardly that her mother seemed no older than she had ten years ago.1 and the vision of a gentle, cooky-making, lace-capped grandmother for the chil dren dimmed. Grandma Johnson didn't conform to type. "She's certainly the spryest grand mother I evjr saw," Mary's husband remarked one morning when she had been with them for a month, as ho watched her tripping down the street to the Home for Aged Couples, where she already knew every one, from head gardener to grocery boy. Mary shook her head. "If I'd heard of any of the old ladles passing on I should be worrying for fear she was making eyes at the widower," she said. "As it is "You don't suppose old Calfb "Old Caleb! John, are you out of your mind?" "Well." said John stiffly, "she may be your mother, but she certainly spends considerable of her time gos siping over the fence with the old man, and if you cast your weather eye that way you'll observe that part of his garden near our fence is the only part that's been weeded for a month!" But his wife turned away indig nantly. She was truly fond of her mother and had expected gladly to give up a valued room for her com fort and, in short, do everything to make her hapjy. Yet she was turn ing out to be as much a problem as one of the children. For example, take her, dally hobnobbing with old Caleb. Ever since the Curtises bought their home their eccentrio neighbor had been a thorn in- th.ir flesh. Not one of Wayne's carelessly flung balls had ever landed anywhere but among his choicest plants and done, accord ing' to Caleb, untold and irreparable damage. Old Caleb's hens, shut from his own preserves, had baiked all Mary's efforts to make flower beds and at John's efforts to render fences Impassable. Moreover, old Caleb had once been a sea captain and his solilo quies when things went wrong were such that Mary was forced to gather her brood indoors with closed win dows. And, from the start, that same old Caleb and Grandma Johnson had been what Wayne called "real chum my." One more Illustration of the un foreseen disturbances the advent of her mother brought Into the home. The youngsters were, to be frank, "jazz crazy," particularly Wayne and sixteen-yeac-old Phyllis. Their pocket money went for new records, altho their father claimed it was extrava gance to buy new ones. One was In distinguishable from the other, and it would be no Toss musically and a gain economically to use the same one until it wore out. Mary had hoped to make an excuse of Grandma Johnson to lessen up on the phonograph. She had fancied herself speaking gently to them of her nerves and need for quiet and rest. But' from the day she came upon Wayne swinging his grandmoth er across the rugless floor and ad monishing her "to two-step or pivot the turn as she pleased, but not to forget that toddling was absolutely a thing gone by and the neck hold was going," she abandoned that cherished hope as vain. Grandma made a great point of her "pet philanthropy." which signified weekly visits to the home for aged couples, bearing a basket of dough nuts and a few magazines. Mary felt that very likely she brought a real breath of cheer Into the place and grew to count upon the home's visit ing hours as quiet moments in the week when her mother was Innocently occupied. But there came a time when Mary felt that to ship grandma back west would bring the household a very real relief. Old Caleb had taken to f Jessie Is We cordially Invite yon to Inspect our wonderfn display of Vlctrolas, pianos and everything musical. Victrola, Style 110 $225 SPECIAL. EASY TERMS Jenkins Outfit I.

Ave. running over evenings and occupying the porch with grandma. This re sulted in driving Phyllis and her call ers indoors, which was the step prior to starting the phonograph and driv ing Mr. and Mrs. Curtis upstairs. Then one day when grandma had gone to the home she failed to return for supper. I Mary was a trifle alarmed, but It had happened once before that the matron had invited her to stay to tea and John promised to run over immediately after the t meal if she had not appeared. It did not prove necessary. Just as dessert was being served the front door opened and grandma entered, fluttered over to the table and sank: Into her chair. She had the air of i ono who had not come to stay, but fjr had paused in passing. "Where have you been, mother?" asked Mary brightly. "All ot us were worried to pieces." "Well," said grandma slowly, "I've been and got married." "Married!" "Not old Caleb!" Grandma snorted. "That old fos sil! Why, he's decrepit, he is! Well. I've been to the parsonage and that nice old Reverend Samuels married me "Married you why, he's got one wife!" This time It was John who won grandma's scornful look. "I'm married to Joe Whipple, su perintendent of the home for aged cripples, and I'm to have a whole Suite and "Joe Whipple!'' Mary eould not refrain from interrupting. "But, mother, he's so much younger!" "Seven years eight months and twenty-three days." came back Grandma Johnson's prompt reply, "but that's fifteen years older'n I feel, so I figure we're about even!"

I went steady with a boy for a short time and he said he loved me dearly. I was called away to visit a sick aunt of mine for two weeks. While I was still In town this boy came to see me almost every other day. He promised to write me and wrote two letters. My visit to my aunt turned out tc be two months. Someway he heard about It. I never heard from him again. He told some of his friends he would not stay here without me and was going back east. I still love him. He is so much different than the rest of the boys. Now I hear he is coming back, but he has not written to me. Should I speak to him if he does coma to see me, or shall I avoid seeing him? I want to do Just what is right. Should a gjrl tell what she feels in her heart if she really means it? THANKFUL BROWN EYES. By all means speak to the boy when he returns, and do not try to avoid him. You have no reason to be angry even since he has not written. My advice is to forget that matter and not mention it. A girl should not betray the state of her heart unless she Is engaged, and even then it is well not to be too emphatic. QuestionsAnswers Q.

'Baker is coming up her to beat Washburn. They think we haven't anything up here. But we are going to show them." That is the state ment made this morning by Dwight T. Ream, director of athletics at Washburn. Baker is coming in a special train nl bringing practically the entire school.

Only by plenty rf support will Washburn have a chance to win the Saturday contest. Need "Washburn Flghto" Spirit. It will take plenty of the spirit of "Washburn Fights" from the side lines to give the boys in the mole Fkins the support they need if they are to defeat the Methodists from Baldwin. The Baker special is due to arrive in town at 9:50 o'clock, and as soon as it can be formed a gigantic parade is to be staged in the business district. Baker graduates in Topeka who have ;irs probably will be. asked to lend th"ir cars to haul the Baker students. "Washburn is in fine condition for the fray." Coach "Mike" Vosburg de clared today.. "The men are tackling fiercely these days, and are showing 1 I r.ts of fight. Then another thing, I .hink the boys realize that Baker is liming up here with the intention of winning." A dinner and pep meeting of the members of the Washburn squad is to be held at the College Inn tonight. Then tomorrow morning a big pep rally is to be staged at the college in which very student of the college as well as a large number of former stu dents and alumni are to take part. Game Starts at 2:30 o'clock. The game will start at 2:30 o'clock Iiirector Ream announced today.

DOUBLE WRESTLING BILL Next Bout Will Bo Put on in Audi torium November S. A dotibl3 bill wrestling bout at the city auditorium on November S, was announced today by P. M. Young and H. K. Rigby, promoters. John Pesek known as the "Tiger of the Mat," is to meet John Granilavich, .the Dalma tian heavyweight champion, and Dick Daviscourt, the Texas flash is to meet Gobar, tho Hindu. These two matches are finish bouts, best out of three falls, and will be staged in the city auditorium. Pesek, while one of tiie lighter heavyweights, is said to be one of the most scien tific grapplers who ever donned the tights. He comes from Nebraska, and weighs 184 pounds. He is credited with wins over Waldek Zbyszko, John Freberg, Bussane the Turk, and many others. Urandevlc. the Dalmatian, is said to be one of the best defensive mat artists in the game today. He has been seen in action here, and gave a good exhibition. His return to oppose the Turk promises to be a good bout. The Dalmatian is about fifty pounds heavier than Pesek. so the hout should be an exciting one. Grandovleh is fast and his mat tactics are always interesting. The other bout on the double card, between Daviscourt and Gobar is as interesting as the first one. Davis eourt has never appeared in Topeka. :obr wai here last season.

Nebraska V. (44) v. Oklahoma (0), at Norman. St. I.ouis IT. (0) vs. Missouri TJ. (32), at St. Louis. Interest in the game at St. Marys this afternoon between St. Mary's col lege and Haya Normal, is creating a lot of interest in Topeka. Many of the fans from Topeka have purchased tickets and are intending to drive to St. Marys this afternoon for the game. And it should be a good game Hays and St. Mary's always have been fairly evenly matched, and thia year will be no exception. A royal recep tion for the Hays team is being ar ranged at the Catholic Institution. The Hays students arranged a re ception for the Catholics at Hays last year, which created more than the usual friendliness between these two schools. This should be one of the purposes of football contests between different collegiate teams, the creat ing of friendliness between the two schools. One of the big things gained from intercollegiate athletics should be the good feeling which can only be established by this method of enter tainment. Hays and St. Mary's have the right idea. Five games are scheduled between teams in the Missouri valley for this week which will give followers of the valley a chance to do some speculat ing. Probably the game that will attract the largest amount of interest is the Kansas-Kansas Aggie tangle at Man hattan. Fans have been doing a lot of guessing about the final outcome of this game. Supporters of Kansas seem sure that the blue and erimson again will trim the Coach Charles Bachman crew, while Manhattan men contend that the Aggies will win the contest. Which ever one wins, it will be the closest game in the Missouri valley thia week -end, we believe. Aggies were easily the favorite with a large contingent of football fol lowers in Topeka prior to the Okla homa game, but Blnce that the matter has seemed a little more doubtful to them. Aggies were picked to win over Oklahoma by a fairly good score, at least by a large number of football men, but since the Aggies were only able to tie the Sooners, the victory of Kansas over the Aggies seems 'more sure to a number. Altho Kansas piled up a good sized score- over the Washburn iQhaboda, persons who study football closely, did not see in the work of Kansas any thing phenomenal. The Aggies, in the first game of the season, made a bet ter showing against Washburn -than aid Kansas after two games expert ence, is the way one follower of Kan sas pat it. i Another thing that has lost confl dence in the ability of the Aggies to win is the loss of Stark, star half, who ia reported to be out with injuries received in the game at Norman last week. He is one of the best men at the Bachman camp, and is being counted on to make a good showing in the valley. Burton, who received injuries in the Washburn game, and did not get in the Norman or the Washington uni versity games, is reported much bet ter, and may be back in the lineup against the "Potsy" Clark aggregation. Burton is a mighty good man in the backfield and his appearance in the lineup will cause the hopes of the Ag gie followers to rise several per cent. Burton was always good for gains in the Washburn-Aggies game. He was an all-Missouri valley backfield man last years, and is-making a start that should land such a position for him this year. A special train from Lawrence is to carry, about half of Kansas university to the contest. Special rates are to be -given for the trip over the Union Pacific. It is to be homecoming day at Manhattan, and aside from the large number of Kansas students, -followers and fans, the newspaper men are to be guests of the Agricultural college at the game. The entertain ment which was to have been given by the department of journalism at Manhattan for the visiting newspaper men, has been called off when it was learned that the newspaper men would not remain over for an enter tainment in the evening. Another contest in the valley which will be watched, even tho it Bhould not be a close game, is the Nebraska-Oklahoma game at Norman. Nebraska won from the Sooners last year, 44 to 0, and if indications as to the strength of the Cornhuskers this year be true, the victory will be that large Saturday. Nebraska won over the South Da kota university eleven, 66 to 0, and over Missouri TJ., 48 to 0. Tha fact that Oklahoma held the Aggies to a 1 7 to 7 tie. however, places a little doubt in the minds of some as to the strength of the Sooners. Bear dope was thrown to the four corners of the compass by the Sooner camp explain ing the weakness of the team prior to the Aggies game, but the dope did not look just right when the Sooners all but won the game. Even tho Drake lost to Iowa State last year, 7 to 0, Drake should be the favorite in the contest at Ames Saturday. Drake won over Kansas, S to 0, and over Washington university, 31 to 7. The Kansas Aggies, consid ered one of the strongest in the val ley, won from Washington, 22 to 14, considerably less than did Drake. St. Louis will try to get revenge from Missouri Saturday, when the two teams meet in St. Louis. Missouri took the game last year, 32 to 0, but Missouri is conceded to be weaker this season than last, so St. Louis may be able to at least hold the Tigers to a small score. Grinnell and Coe should play to a close game at Cedar Rapids in the annual clash between these two schools. The Coe eleven .took the game, 10 to 0, last year. Ernest C. Quigley, big league um pire, was in Topeka Wednesday, in the interest of the Moran-Quiglfey football bureau of New York. Charles Moran and Quigley, the former a coach at Centre college, Danville, Ky., have compiled a series of football articles on playing and officiating. Quigley is doing considerable foot ball refereeing in the Kansas confer ence and Missouri valley this year. He will officiate in the St. Mary'8-Hays Normal game at St. Marys this after noon. He refereed the Centre-Harvard game at Cambridge last week. He has eighteen football games in the mid-west, east and south for this sea son. He was released from four dates in Kansas and Missouri to umpire the oity baseball aeries in Chicago re cently. TENNIS CHANSPlN HOSPITAL Infection In Hand Threatens Future Career as Net Star. Philadelphia, Oct. 26. William T. Tilden, II, national tennis champion, is in alocal hospital awaiting the out come of an operation upon which hinges his future career as a net star.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAI-THURSD AY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1922 TO STRIKE AT ROOT Prevention of Delinquency Is Aim of Code Commission. Business Man's Viewpoint, Mrs. Mayfield Tells Rotary. Prevention of delinquency and de pendency of children and adults In the state of Kansas thru the taking of i measures to Improve conditions for the children before it becomes neces sary for the state to assume their rare, was advocated by Mrs. Harriet "May field, secretary of the state chil- dren's code commission. In an address trt Vi n Tnnpka Tf of n vv clllb at the fPIT- K ular meeting today. Mrs. Mayfield Jtlescribed the con ditions which exist In the state today, the which the state pays for the care of the delinquent and the de- pendent, and discussed briefly the laws which are being advocated by the commission. "Kansas pays from $3,000,000 to 14.000,000 a year for the appre hension, support, and relief of the criminal and delinquents of the state, Mrs. A.ayfield declared. "The various state institutions cost in the neighbor- hood of $1,250,000 a year. The state courts cost some $350,000 a year, and the county and local courts and insti tutions bring the total up to three or four million dollars. 43 Members In Commission. There are forty-three members the commission, and they are divided into seven different committees. They have been assigned to the task of ex amining and co-ordinating the wel fare laws of the state into a code which will operate as a prevention 6f the conditions of deliquency and de pendency, as well as the treatment of these conditions when they do arise. Mrs. Mayfield attacked the problem from the business man's standpoint the eventual saving of expense thru the Use of preventive measures. She called attention to the fact that the penal institution of the state are badly overcrowded and in the very near future will require appropria tions to increase their capacity. Among the measures which are be 1 ing advocated by the commission and which Mrs. Mayfield gave specific at tention in her talk today were: the appointment in each county, of a skilled, trained welfare worker, to combine in one person the offices of probation officer of the probate court. the truancy officer of the public schools, and the commissioner of the poor. The revision of the law prescribing the duties of the county health officer, which is more than thirty years old, end authorizing the counties to enter the public health nursing service. The provision in the law of funds for making p. physical examination of ell children in the public schools, an nually t The authorization of special train t jng in the public schools for, defective children, to whom instruction in read Jng. writing and arithmetic is worth less, but who might be given voca- tional training to advantage. "So Training" at WinfieJd.. A larger appropriation and better training for the higher grade children in the state home for the feeble- minded at Winfield. "That school made me sick. There Is no training there. There is no work for the young women who are able to work. They are doomed to spend their lives sitting in a chair with nothing to do, there is not a person connected with the in6 stitutlon who has had any special training in the care of the feeble-minded. This without criticism of the superintendent, who is the best man for the position the state is able to get, but who does not pretend to be trained for the work," Mrs. Mayfield said. The commission would provide" "fr the state supervision of the adoption of orphan children into private homes. There are 5,000 such children' known to have been adopted of which there is no record kept by the state, Mrs. Mayfield declared. The commission favors the raising J'J i DrtsTIIJ.l i 1 KM-. tat education -TpHOUSANDS of people are learning that they cannot drink X coffee or tea at supper time and get a good night's sleep. Experience has taught these men and women to recognize that'the caffeine in both coffee and tea is often responsible for a wakeful, restless night; and a nervous "next day." If you have reason to believe that coffee or tea is causing your headaches, insomnia or nervousness, why not drink rich, refreshing Postum instead. Postum is the delicious golden-brown cereal beverage that many former coffee-drinkers prefer for its satisfying flavor alone. Ask your grocer today for, Postum and begin serving this delicious beverage at meal times and see how well you like it. Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) prepared in stantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water. Postum Cereal (in packages, for those who prefer to make the drink while the meal is being prepared) made by boiling fully twenty minutes.

Cause of Present Situation Is Basis of Inquiry. Washington, Oct. 26. As a begin ning of its work of investigation of the coal industry, the United States coal commission, it was announced today, has addressed two queries to repre sentatives of the parties most imme diately interested in its operation and has asked for written answers. "What, in your judgment, are the elements that have caused and are causing the acknowledged demorali zation in the coal industry and which are working hardships alike upon the parties engaged in the production of coal-and the consuming public?"' the first query asks. The second asks for "the practical remedies which, in your judgment, would eliminate any or all ,of the ele ments that you feel are -responsible for the conditions.",: Ask For Other Reports These queries were submitted to three committees which the commis sion has conferred with this week, and which have been selected, to represent the bituminous and anthracite miners, and the miners' union. In addition to the direct queries, the commission has suggested a list of topics upon which it has asked each group to report. These include coal prices, costs of production, labor and profits, strikes and cost of living in the mining regions. Two additional topics suggested that the commission desires informa tion as to the possibility of standard izing the mines upon the basis of their economic productive capacity, and closing down mines which fall below the standard, "and as to the further possibility of standardizing the cost of living for mine workers and the living conditions which must be supplied or accorded the workmen.'!

I was weak and nervous and could hardly stand on my feet long enough to cook a meal, f waa this way for about a year and had tried several medicines and had a physician, but to no avail. My sister was taking your medicine and finally induced me to try it. I now feel fine and can do my housework without any trouble at all. You can use this letter for the sake of others if you wish." Mrs, WeldonG. Hatfield, R. R. 3 Sabina, Ohio. Housewives make a great mistake In allowing themselves to become so weak and nervous that it ig well-nifrh impos sible for them to attend to their neces sary household duties. Lydia fi. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound should be taken when you first notice such symptoms as nervousness, backache, weakness and irregularity. It will help you and prevent more serious trouble.

An unusual effort is being made to in terest boys and youths of the congregation in the church.

These boys as well as their teachers are boosting fop "Boy's Night," their aim -being the showing of ft record attendance. The Rev. R. K. Gordon, pastor of tiie Kansas Avenue Methodist church, is. -of th opinion that not enough attention l given to boys, believing that timely and proper training In boyhood makes for a self re specting, honorable manhood.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL--THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1922 St SPEAK ON TARIFF Commission Beady to Hear Voice of the People. Any Person or Corporation Has Chance for Relief. Washington, Oct. 26. The voice of the common people will be heard on S n equality with the roar o -the great- est corporation in the application of President Harding's new extraordi nary tariff revision powers, under rules of procedure announced today by the United States tariff commis sion. i Each American citizen who can show a cause for redress will have the same right as the Standard Oil company or the United States Steel corporation to fill an application for changes in tariff rates, according to the commission's announcement. The applicants, whether individual or cor poration, must merely file the request lor relief In writing to the commis sion. The statement must contain the applicant's name, residence, busi ness address, occupation, the kind of relief sought and the grounds for It. Admit Three Causes. Appeals for rate changes can be based on allegations of business in Jury or lo?s from any one of three causes. These are: 1. Changes in economic conditions making existing individual rates a burden to the applicant (section 315). 2. Losses incurred thru unfair busi ness methods employed by competing importers (section 316), and, 3. Infliction of preferential taxes neainst American exports by any for- iieign nation (section 317). 4V The first cause will give American Wus'.ness men an opportunity to obtain tariff relief in changing economic con ditions. They can obtain relief. If their grounds are sufficient, without the necessity of having the whole tariff bill rewritten. The second cause will give protec tion to concerns or individuals com peting with importers. Under this section, the president can levy addi tional duties against any importer en aped in unfair price cutting, full line forcing, commercial bribery or any other method of unfair competition. If the offender persists, the president is empowered to prohibit him from further importations. THE EMPEROR JONES It is Just a question of whether or not you like that kind of a dramatic performance. If one enjoys psychology and the more lurid personification of animal instincts. "The Emperor Jones" as portrayed by Charles S. Gilpm is an evening of intensity. If one fidgets and fusses over such a class of act ing the p'ay is a source of regret. One thing is certain there'll never he another "Emperor Jones." It is In a snhere of its own. It is Charles S. flilpin a negro actor who has jumped into well deserved fame after poini? thru the school of minstrels and vaudeville. It is Gilpin who holds the t-tnffe and the audience for two hours of darkness and uncertainty. The story: Gilpin, or "Emperor Jones" was a Pullman porter, a crap shooter and a convict. He killed a fellow dice contestant and he killed Ins prison guard. He escaped, took up a residence on a West Indies island, and with the aid of a cockney trader ruled the island and its natives. He hec-ame emperor and used his office to steal. Finallyn his wealth he en tonumed thouphts of retiring and Prepared plans for his escape" thru the dark forests. Then the beating) f the tom-toms, the signal of a revo- Intion, the warning of his oath and t Ms abdication. The play opens in his pa'ace where he hears the drums j boating in the hiils. The following seven scenes portray his escape thru j thn n.nn.ln orA V, o eventual nnntnrn and death. 1'he emperor's ruling passion is g'M. With it he in fearless, domt i ming, bold, swagger. Even as he lcrives his palace to enter the woods he sees visions of his life to come a liie of dissipation and pleasure and idienesH. Gilpin plays the part admirably. His laugh, his arrogance, his lordli ness, his self -exaltation and his ne pri abandon in freedom. It is human nature. His first stop in the woods, his as surance that he'll find the food he lias hidden away under the rocks, his confidence that the natives in all their ignorance cannot conquer him. His first pang of fear when the food is not found, the gnajving hunger and the constant beating of the drums. Absolute darkness in the woods, the isions of his former sins, the fan- J;ies. Weariness, the burdensome cloth ing, the blistered, aching feet, the feeling that ho is lost. and the beating of the drums, lomler, nearer. Anguish, loss of greed for gold, prayers for deliverance, repentance of sins, self preservation. 1'hys'rnl insanity. Cental torture, Home-made, but Hat No Equal for Coughs o

It is the nature of the human animal. The theater goer must throw himself into the play to enoy it. He must think while Gilpin acts. He must close his eyes to the scenes and live them. To witness "Emperor Jones" as a Tired Business Man is a failure. The management recognized the necessity for the sympathy of the audience when it opened the show with a one-act comedy. "The Widow's Veil," acted by Peggy Doran and Geraldine Wood. This act had noth ing to do with the "Emperor Jones. It was given for the purpose of "seat ing tne audience" and -at s o'ciock when the seats had become thoroly hardened, the Gilpin play began. From the second until the last scene the theater was darkened. Only the lights of the woods were evident. To analyze "Emperor Jones"- Is to trace thru these columns the course of the human mind in trepidation. To attempt to express the feelings out lined by the play is meaningless. Our own human instincts tell us. If you are willing to throw yourself into "Emperor Jones" and abandon your emotion and consciousness to Charles Gilpin's master dramatic touch and sentiment you have pre pared yourself for an evening: of art and passion. If you are frigidly un conscious to a play on the senses you cannot be convinced that "Emperor Jones" is worth while. As we said in the beginning; -you like it or you don't. And your Judg ment Is not to be questioned In either case. AJC SANTA FE NOTES Hots an4 pxneaato by airs. R. B. Wadtaisk. Call Bis tats 1Mb. Mrs. L. M. Lacey and son. Lee Jefferson, of Portland.

San Francisco, Oct. 26. Superior court records here today revealed the first legal skirmish in the divorce tion instituted by Floyd Glotzbach, chauffeur, against his wife, Madame Margaret 'Matzenauer, prima donna. Madame Matzenauer, who is appear ing here in concert, filed a deposition denying her husband's charges itjtn dignities. The diva drew into the case Lijttie Fraties, of Carmel Cal,, in whom Glotzbach was said to have manifested too great interest. To substantiate her charges attorneys produced a tet ter which had been interpreted by Madame Matzenauer in which the Carmel woman upbraided Glotzbach. The letter ended with the statement, "never mind; she will know your life history." Madame Matzenauer admits in the affidavit that she asked her husband to "hook up her dress," because she had dismissed ,her maid for their honeymoon, at Glotzbach's request. The deposition was heard privately yesterday. The divorce trial has been set for November 14. Glotzbach was not at the hearing.

Not Much Danger Now Shortage In Topeka. of An alleged price war whicti has be gun to rage among at least a part of the Topeka coal dealers was operating to the benefit of consumers today. The chief disagreement among the dealers seemed to involve the price of South ern Kansas lump and nut coal. Prices on the nut coal varied from $9.75 to $10.50 and on lump coal from $10.25 to $11 today. The opinions of dealers also varied widely as to the available supply and the probabilities of market variations in the future. Some declared there was no poss'biiity of coal getting any higher,, whiie others declared that it couldn't remain at til present level very Ions. Only on onfc question were they anywhere near unanimous. And that was that the price might not go any higher provided the weather re mains warm and the mines catch up. No Danger ot Shortage. As a matter of fact, after absorbing all the information which Topeka coal dealers could put out, one wondered what one ought to do about laying in the winter supply. It was apparent however, that there is not much dan ger of a severe coal shortage and that no one need lie awake nights wondering how to obtain fuel. The Southern Kansas, or Cherokee variety of coal, has been selling at $11 and $11.25, while the price on nut has ranged around $10.50. Then, it is asserted, one dealer cut the price "on the quiet." As soon as this was found out, another followed suit. Some of the dealers, however, are still getting the price that prevailed a few days ago. The belief was expressed in all quar ters that even in the event of a cold snap, the price would go no higher than the levels prevailing a few days ago.
