SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1922. IF FARMERS STRUCK OUT. Every night the people of the nation lie d wn to troubled dreams over the strikes, and every morning they get up to find the railroad industry in r. wild tangle so that it functions but taltingly. The great coal industry has been for the past five months in a profound state of paralysis. Whether it will be able to supply the American people with comfortable warmth by the time the Frost King arrives is highly problematical. Even if the mines should turn out the adequate supply of coai, theie remains the miPRfion nf thp nhilltv nf thn rnilro:iH< to transport it. So much for two basic national industries, both highly organized under management of the biggest men of the business world. Glimpsing this *.:on it is natural to turn to other ' r'sic units, necessary to life, liberty nrd the pursuit of happiness. And, situate, right in the center of the corn nd livestock belt, the Lincoln State Journal observes that the farmer is just now filling the horn of plenty to an overflowing capacity. It observes, for example, that there is enough wheat, with a quarter of a billion bushels for Europe besides. The eggs and butter come forward in an unknown stream. There is meat enough. Fruit enough is in prospect to give every American his fill of vitamines. This great result, be it noted, is produced by the most heavily handicapped of all our greater industries. The farmers work under , the burden of the debts of an inflate! period coupled with prices for thei? i nducts considara^'r v .general current price' level. * In view of such facts as these, ^ which should we say is the best-ru.i American industry? It is interesting to speculate on Ihe result if the farming industry were organized like the railroad and the coal industries, with control of farm properties, vest- 1 ed in a few boards of directors in New York and all farm workers taking ] their orders from a central headquar- i ters in Cleveland or Indianapolis. Should we then be any surer of a food crop than now we are sure of a , coal output or of the regular operation of trains? Should we then have 1 deliberate restriction of crop produe- 1 tion, such as there is in some highlyorganized industries, for the purpose , of hoisting prices ? Would strikes of < farm laborers leave corn on the stalk i as strikes of railroad laborers are leaving California fruit at the depot? Is it because humble farming is not | so organized and centralized that it is ( all in all our efficient, most reliable i and orderly industry? And if so, is Ihere in the fact any lesson to app'.y ^ to the railroad and mining problems t now oppressing us? If it is not an opportune time now to ask these ques- 1 tions when will that time arrive? W/> ( have listened to this and that p-opa- ' L-nmiH spreaa so tnicniy Dy tne siren ; of the sandlot orator and the labor f { gent that we have come face to face with a bare babe of unionism, dictating to the government itself. An 1 the pitiful part of it is that our r wishy-washy politicians are openly t dickering with the propagandists.--Columbia Record. 11 t Our cat says a task delayed grows C( harder.

Princess And Husband in Paris Paris, Sept. 2.?Princess Xenia of ureecc, mece of King Constantino, and wife of William Leeds, Jr.," is at present in Paris with her husband, ex. pecting an addition to the family. If a boy is born 1o the Princess, he wilt inherit the entire $40,000,000 fortune of the late William Leeds, the American tinplace king. The Leeds' will provide* that if there is no male issue, the whole sum shall go to the New York Lying-in Hospital. The $40,000,000 is now in the form of a trust fund, the interest on which is drawn by Princess Christopher (formerly Mrs. William Leeds). Upon the death of the American Princess the interest will revert to her son, husband of Princess Xenia. In the event of his death or that of his wife, the fortune will go to a male heir, if there be one, as the American law provides that a trust fund shall ceas? with the third generation. Young Leeds and his wife are living with Prince and Princess Christopher at a fashionable hotel in Pari.'. Princess Christopher's allowance to them enables them to entertain lavishly. The youthful couple spend most of their time automobiling, yachting and airplaning. They probably will accompany the Princess on her visit to the United States this autumn. Much criticism is said to have arisen in Greece over the continued absence of Prince Christopher, who is King Constantine's youngest brother. All his brothers and nephews are serving their country or the army in some capacity, while Christopher is alleged to be living a life of indolence and pleasure in Paris on the gold ;>f his affluent American wife. It has not yet been decided whether he will ac-j company her to America, as some misgivings apparently are felt as to the cordiality of his welcome there. So far the Prince has not yet even visited England because of the known prejudice of the British against his brother Constantine. Mrs. Leeds was married to Prince Christopher in January of. 1920 in Switzerland.

At least six of the state colleges have shifted games previously scheduled for this date, to September 29. to enable their supporters to journey here for the first appearance of the celebrated team from the Blue Grass state. Twenty-five hundred additional seats have been constructed around Riggs Field, and Coach Stewart hopes to build an additional 2,500 :>n the banks surrounding the gridiron. Coach Stewart's initial line-up will he short many of last year's first string players. Those who will not he back include Gilmer, Spearman, Colbert, Wilhite, Bailes, Armstrong, Dean, Geddes and others, while Sto<um, Cann, Willis, Bobo, Finklea, Poag, Carter and Edwards, expected 'or this year's team, have changed heir school nlans Despite the loss of this long list of layers including -12 letter men, 7oaeh Stewart refuses to gloom over irospects. He believes there is a rood nucleus around which to build nd is looking to the big class of| 'reshmen brought out last year. Care of Teeth London, Sept. 1.?Here are the ules of the British Dental Associaion for the care of children's teeth. Be sure the child sleeps with the nouth shut, and when awake breathe hrough the nose. From the age of wo let each meal contain some food hat needs grinding. Begin the j hild's education in hard foods at ine months by giving it a bone, referably a chop bone, with a little * icat on it, to exercise its gums. Do ot let children drink until the end c f the meal. Avoid many sweets * nd sweet biscuits, and only give \ hem as a part of a meal. Finish 1 ach meal with a piece of fresh fruit r r crisp salad, or, if these are un- 1 btainable, a stale crust of bread, c 'ith butter if preferred, but not with e im, t The use of electricity is increasing t verywhere, according to the United t itates Geological Survey report for t fay. Forty-two and eight-tenths per s cnt of all power generated was by s rater as compared with 36.2 per oent j ^ January, 1922. The consumption s lcrease for the month was 2.1 per ent. t High coal makes a low fire. c <ew Air Records Expected Pulitzer Race JCJetroit^ Mich., Sept. 2.-AA. speed of 200 miles sti hour, the highest ever attained by man, will bo recorded hcjre luring the Pulitzer air races, October 14, according to predictions made b> army and na\y officers who have made arrangements for the event. This speed, according to the authorities from Washington, is 800 feet a second, or one-fourth the muzzle velocity of_ a .45 calibre bullet, one of the swiftest of pTojcetSlep. They add. cd ^pother comparison M saying the planes in this contest will fly abreast at a speed four times as great as the fastest average speed of any express train on the continent. The two branches of the government service have entered 23 planes in the Pulitzer race,.bringing, the total entry list to 28. . . The Pulitzer Trophy race, the. culmination of a series of aerial contests extending over a period of several days, will start from Selfried field, near Mt. Clemens. The course is triangular and measures approximately 40 miles. The Pulitzer race entrants must cover this course four times without a stop. According to naval and army airmen the specially built planes now being made ready for the race should establish new records. Four air events in addition to the Pulitzer Trophy competition are scheduled for Detroit and vicinity during October. The first of these will be on Lake St. Clair, Saturday. October 7. The chief event at the opening event will be the Curtiss Marine Flying Trophy race, Including only over-water craft as entrants. The distance to be flown is about 160 miles, eight times around a closed triangular course of 20 miles. Twelve flying boats are entered. The second national Aero Congres will be held here October 12, 13 and 14. Overland races will be held during the congress. Two of these races are set for October 12. They are The Detroit News aerial mail trophy race for large capacity multi-motored airplanes and the Aviation Country Cub of Detroit Tropby race for observation type (two passenger) planes will be held. Other aerial exhibitions and contests will be held and in these the First U. S. army pursuit group, stationed at Selfridge field, will play a large part. The pursuit group, it has become known, is the nucleus for the advanced fighting air force of the American army and is being enlarged vapidly. New machines are arriving each week and it has been learned the Detroit district is to be the army's serial headquarters, at least during summer months. The group some time ago was brought here from Texas. The day of the Pulitzer race will be a municipal holi<}ay in Detroit. Prominent national figures, including President Harding, Secretary Hoover, Secretary Weeks and Secretary Denby, the latter a Detroiter, have been invited. The Aero congress is expected lo bring together representatives of bO American cities interested in creating a permanent national aeronautic asso cmiiuii m ueveiop aviauon ootn commercially and for national defense. Warnings Against Bootleg Liquor El Paso, Texas, Sept. 1.?Juares prohibition officials, following warnings issued by physicians and peace officers to Americans here against drinking bootleg liquor, have taken a hand in an effort to abolish a number of alleged illicit stills where the liquor is manufactured. Liquid resembling whisky, wines, beer, tequilla, (Mexican whisky) and other liquors in Juarez, have Veen! found on this side to contain Injurious foments, although it is sealed as genuine. Dealers in Juarez find a ready market for empty liquor bottles, and double price is paid when labels are not broken. IP.icit manufacturers liave several means of deceiving buyers. They get a cheap grade of whisky and put it i:i bottles which contained expensive brands. Water and tea frequently are used to dilute the liquid. Others bum sugar, make tea from leaves of various kinds and add a little alcohol, wine is treateo with colored matter and artificial flavors. An over supply of beer made in Juarez, Chihuahua City, Monterey and Mexico City, offered to Juarez saloons, has created another upheaval in Juarez liquor circles.' The wholesale price of beer has been slashed and retail prices reduced. Ono place is offering a "free lunch" with a five cent beer. Memorial to First Englishman Yokosuka, Japan, Aug. 10.?Ajintuka (Pilot Hill), where the body of Will Adams, the first Englishman to :ome to Japan, and his Vrife, lie >uried, is to be turned into a public >ark as a memorial to the famous Englishman. There already is s nonument to Adams at the foot of he hill, but Baron Sufa, commander >f Tokio Bay and others who considr that Adams has not been sufficienty honored by his Japanese benefacors, have decided upon the park near he great naval base as a more flting memorial to the first European o teach them something of the outide world. There is a memorial ervice held at Adams' tomb every rear which is presided over by a core of Buddhist priests. Vacuum sweepers, driven by moors, are suggested for cleaning the itreete of New York. a Avarice Cause of Crime Harrisburg, Sept. 1.?Avarice led all huitym failings as a cro? o? crime" tuf which an^sts wpsw ma^de by the tyuisylvania Stpte Pplice 4uring 1921. Of a total of 12, 908 arrests covered in a repprt for the year, made Public here today, 5,550 were listed under this heading. The'"police report bases crime on human emotions and lists moat of the offenses Under headings suggestive of fundamental traits responsible. Avarice 1 cdjfbrs the various forum of theft robbefy. Under the heading re*3|tesshe89 are listed 4,289 ar- >< rests, wnich were the result largely of violations of the automobile laws. Alcoholic stimulation was responsible for 1,27b arrests. The other headings and the totals are: Drugs, 4; lust, 621; revenge, 1,026; subnormal mentality, 142. Mhre' tingle than married men were arfested and for most of those taken into custody the offense was their first- There were 7,141 single men and 5,767 married men arrested. Of the total 11,798 were first offenders, rflp second offenders and 932 third aflj^unders. The report lists 12,162 as white and 746 black. There were 12^02 men and 706 women. The youngest offenders were ten years old and there were 37 of these. The oldest was 80. There was only one of t^is age although there were two of 78 and two of 76. The most dangerous years apparently were between 20 and 35. There were more offenders?648?of the age of 21 than of any other age. The 30 year mark was second with 579. 7 Organisation of * Home Guards Topeka, Sept. 2.?Organization of Topeka Post No. 1, Department of Kans&s, of American State Guards marks the beginning of a movement to form into local, state and national units those who served in the state guards, or citizens' heme guards, during the world war. In Kansas, this volunteer organization grew to a maximum enrollment of nearly 20,000 men, but it was disorganized soon after the close of the ??> when tht. Kansas National Guard was reorganized. Those pronioting organization of the association state in their adopted constitution, that they regret the lack of proper recognition "for this neglected branch of the military service during the world war." They point ^ out that most, of the states had home guard units during the war, and that the Kansas department will urge members of the home guards in other states to organize. , m , < flpapiorc Baffin Land Ihe Pas, Manitoba, Sept. 1.?A . party of three Quebec explorers, un der the leadership of Alfred Trembley, an Arctic explorer of note, now are on the way to the Arctic Seqs where investigations of Baffin Land and at the Magnetic Pole will be conducted. Mr. TreiSlfblay's party will be the first in history to attempt the journey, which they are undertaking by canoes artd afoot. The party has four specially built freighting canoes 1 and some 8,000 pounds of freight. , Their equipment includes all the lat- j est instruments. The expedition is a private one and marine, land, general and geological surveys will be carried out. The trip will occupy approximately two years. I'remblay1 has made many trips into the Arctic regions. He was only 19 when he*made his first journey. He was a member of Captain Bernier's expedition of 1910-11, 1912-13. Coaching Staff Second to None Clemson College, Sept. 2.?A coachI : - a- ? * ? mg sum second 10 none in tne south is what Coach Stewart of Clemaon is hoping for thi3 fall. In 1921, E. W. Shaw of Mebraska was his lone helper, while for the approaching season he has engaged the assistance of Captain T. E. May, Captain Frederick Roderick, both of Ohio and Pacific Coast fame, and as an all-year man, has obtained the services of Fred W. Hamilton, former captain of the Washington State College teams which defeated Brown and Pennsylvania in inftersectional games in 191(1 and 1917. Captain . May's experience covers many yeare of playing and coaching. He played on the Oregon Aggies team when Stewart coached there, and later acted as assistant coach. He came to Clemson from Camp Lewis where he led the *1921 football team on the field in many games. Previously, he played with the 91st Division team overseas, and before that with the* Mutnomah Club of Portland, Ore. P.nntQin T if ni i n 1 on n1ovo?l nrvtVil the Camp Lewis team in 1921 and with the settle division overseas. In his college* career he was all-state half on the Wooster-(Ohio)-University team. Later he played professional football on the Massillon, Ohio, team for several years. In addition, it is probable that "Red" Geddes, the fighting center on the Tiger teams of the last' three years, will fuMist in the coaching, devoting his ffiae to freshman activities With Oaptafcr(Roderick. With an teaistant coaching staff of this calibrei*Doc" Stewart is feeling confident tlrR his 1921 yearlings will be brought Aveugh to team sufficiently strong t# give the best teams on the Qemscyaahedule some real bat Campaign Against Disloyalty j Chicago, 111., Sept. 2.?A nationwide campaign against disloyalty to spoken or printed work has been inaugurated by the League of American the country of whatever nature in the Pen Women, which has sent out a call to its entire membership to join in the campaign. This action was taken by the national officers in Washington after information was received from government o$ciala that those who attempt to d^atroy American institution*, and principles direct their efforts primarlly to the woman -of the country and the stndfenU in colleges. This feature is being given particular attention, by a special committee appointed by Mrs. Louis N. Geldert, national president, and the national executive board. The text books in schools and colleges are being given close scrutiny by this committee. Many textbooks, it is stated, through deletions, fail to instruct properly in American history, American traditions and American ideals. "Opera companies, whose activities are for education as well as enbertairu ment, who Danish our Language, our composers and our American-trained singers, tend toward disloyalty in oqr estimation," declared Eleanor Everest Freer, national chairman of music. "To stifle the progress of so large an asset as our musical art by such a system also seems disloyal to us." The League of American Pen Women is composed of the professional writing women of the country, authors, editors, publishers, Journalists, special feature and syndicate writers, dramatic writers, scenario writers, publicity and advertising experts and lecturers. It holds, because of the nature of its membership, a tremendous national power, Mrs. Geldert states. The 18 branches of the organization throughout the country and the 1500 members of the national body have been called upon to join active, ly in the campaign. Over Supply of Paper Tokio, Aug. 10.?The Japanese paper mills, in common with a few other industries, have greatly enlarged their manufacturing capacity during the last few years, and in consequence, the market is suffering from oversupply despite the fact that the manufacturers are more or less restricting the output. In the summer last year, the stock of paper in the public warehouses throughout the country totaled 130,000,000 pounds but at the end of May, last, it was reduced to 18,900,000 pounds. The market still is unable to absorb the increasing output and further re-1 striction of production is thought in- j evitable. The consumption of print and othr er paper which in accounted %p 318,542,000 pounds increased to 462,255,000 pounds in 1921. Of the former, 251, 337,000 was produced in Japan while in the latter year 634,450,000 was the output of Japanese fcatories. Besides, Japan exported last year, 60,987,000 pounds compared with .13,462,000 in 1912. Her imports in 1921 were 45,683,000 compared with'77,214,000 in 1912. Japan receives pulp from Norway, Sweden and Canada, but the latter is now j increasing her sales here owing to the shorter haul, which enables her to | sell at a yen a nound cheaDer than her Scandinavian competitors. The Reformed Jewish Church has made a ruling allowing women to become rabbis. Orthodox Jews have not made this ruling and in congregations of Russian and Austrian lineage, women are not allowed during worship to occupy the same seats with the men or listen to the same service except through screens. Wall paper was not used in the United States until after 1725 and then was ordered specially from Europe. It was not carried in stock until 1745 but by 1750 it had come into general use.
