A trained nurse who recently return
ed from a trial in Panama declared
that she was done forever with the
isthmus. She said that stories Of the
evils there had been exaggerated, yet
the country has no charms for her.
Many people who were densely igno-
rant of the conditions OF life near the
equator have sought employment in
connection with the great canal, ex-
pecting an easy time and rich re-
ward. A few weeks dispel the illu-
sions.
The work of getting laborers for the
there are toilers in the tropics to be
had at liberal pay. But men of me-
chanical skill and intellect to direct
the details of the great enterprise is
another matter. The activities Of the
tropics do not furnish them, and hun
dreds of observation-disclosures before
the canal Is finished-will be needed
in different capacities. The truth
should be told to all novices who wish
to engage, and with proper warning
many lives will be saved and needless
alarm dissipated.
The isthmus of Panama cannot be
converted into health resort. 1t is an
isthmus and not comparable to the is
land of Cuba, which Is naturally sa-
lubrlous. The work of sanitation will
be pushed, but the region can never be-
come suitable for Americans to work in
at hard labor Men of adventurous
spirit have gone from the north to the
tropics and succeeded. Perhaps If the
appeal is laid before the right kind of
men now recruits will come forward
and the work go through within a rea-
sonable time.

Preyentiyes Of Suffocation.

Two devices recently tested in Eu-
rope and found practical for prevent
ing suffocation by poisonous gases are
likely to come into general use. One
Of the new inventions regenerates the
exhuled air and enables a man to work
in poisonous air. Two types of this
invention are made, one Of which is so
simple that miner may carry 1t with
him into a mine.
The second device Is based on the
well known principle Of the apparent
variation in weight Of body when 1t
is plunged into ordinary air and into
gases of different density. This inven-
ton sets a bell ringing in the room or
at distance If necessary and also by
means of an electric spring opens a
window.

Some of the bank wrecking officials
who have landed behind the bars have
raised the point that five years at
hard labor in prison is undue cruelty
and the law which in1icts it unconsti-
tutional The plea is that bankers are
not used to hard labor. AS matter of
fact, the work to which banker prison
ers are assigned is usually the lightest
in the institutions where they are held.
Even the routine of a clerkship in
prison would be considered a cruel or
deal by the average bank smasher, SO
accustomed is he to taking all things
easy, including other peoples cash. 1t
would be cruelty, but perhaps no more
than justice, to let the culprits be idle
and have ample time to repent of
their sins. Employment in prison is
really blessing rather than a cruelty.
The cruelty of the business is for the
victims Of the bank smasher, who have
to labor twice as hard to make up for
the losses.

During the recent army and navy
maneuvers in Virginia waters a knot
of Brazilian officers tried to get a
meal in hotel at Norfolk and were
compelled to withdraw because Of the
protests of other guests who suspected
that they had negro blood. This has
been set down to southern race preju-
dice, but the chances are that the
trouble was caused by snobs hailing
from north of Mason's and Dixon's
line.

inc Erench Live QUO OF Doors.

Morallsts admit that we may go to
France for fine arts and fashions, but
generally draw the line on social Gus
toms. Now, the French are a happy
lot of beings and possibly can teach
Americans something besides how to
paint and what to wear At least this
is the opinion of Berkeley Smith, author
of "Parisians Outdoors" He says:
The French are instnctively an out of
doors loving people. Life in the open air
means to them nine-tenths of the JOY of
living Every spare hour is by the ma
jority of Parisans spent out of doors.
The country is their cherished Mecca for
a holiday and the cafe terrace In town

never sleep with their windows open, yet
you will find them dining at the little
tables in front of the restaurants
throughout the four seasons of the year.

and chilly enough to make us Anglo
Saxons turn our collars up and hurry
home to n cracking fire.
France has its resorts for rich oilers,
but the common people cannot afford
to visit them, and most Parisians take
their outings near home. To quote fur
Their:
In the Bots de Boulogne, long after
night has fallen, you will often pass
whole families seated in some grassy
nook picnicking, with perhaps single
candle burning In the midst OF the jolly
party, to distinguish by its Pickering
fame the chicken from the sausage and
the bottle of Graves from the Burgundy.
And what a feast and an all day
romp they have had, with no policeman

them to keep off the grass! The feast

young man in whose honor this long,
jolly day in the Bots has been given.
The wood of Boulogne is the great
public park of Paris. 1t Is guarded
from vandalism and III usage by the
good sense and restraint of the people

licemen within call, and malicious

Callers at the American embassy

COLOSSAL SCHEME
TO AID FARMERS
.LUBIN PLANS INTERNATIONAL
REGULATION
Credits King Victor Emmanuel With
the Honor of Having Taken the
Initiative and OWNED the
Peoples Wants
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
ROME. Feb 10.--Davld Lubin Of
Sacramento, Cal, who has been stay
ing here for some months perfecting
the plans for the establishment of an
international chamber of agriculture,
speaking today to the correspondent
of the Associated Press said:
IT do not wish to be interviewed, as
anything coming from a single person
will diminish the Importance of the
scheme, which is and must remain the
initiative of King Victor Emmanuel,
who has OWNED the true needs of the
will become one of the greatest sover-
eigns in history il the project is carried
out successfully"
Mr.. Lubin has had numerous inter-
views with Minister of the Treasury
Luzzati and prominent economists and
agriculturalists. In report on the
subject he says:
"The purpose of the international
chamber of agriculture is not to create
abnormal conditions but to bring about
and maintain as normal conditions
which are now abnormal. No con-
sumner should object to pay normal
prices even If some of them be higher
than those now prevalent If con-
sumers understood the reason for this
they would not only consent to pay
normal prices but would eagerly de-
sire it, and in the end prices would
become equalized."
Asked if the end sought in the pro-
by the department of agriculture, Mr..
Lubin answered:
mo, because the thousands of docu-
rnents and facts from throughout the
world are too numerous to be mastered
| by a single minister of agriculture, he
tablish the authenticity of the facts,
his jurisdiction being bounded by his
own nation and his powers being lin
tied and prescribed by law. He also
has no power to influence other ma
tions which act and react upon his own.
For instance, in America the depart
ment of agriculture is unable to abol-
ish the evil tendencies of trusts, COM
bines and mergers which made Ameri-
can agriculturists lose s7OO,OOO,OOO last
year. But an international chamber
could do more than this
The whole press comments enthusi-
astically upon the project of King Vic
tor Emmanuel to establish an inter
tional chamber of agriculture. The
Capitale says:
1--WE cannot refrain from manifest
ing our pride as Italians in fact which
will make the name of King Victor
Emmanuel applauded from the Italian
| frontier to the country of George WASH

CLAREMONT AUDIENCE
HEARS JACOB RIIS
stereoptieon Lecture Of Noted New
York Reformer Well Received
bv Larue Crowd

OTk ncTOTF0CT WeH nEgGiNEb
by Large Crowd
Special to The Herald
CLAREMoNT, Feb. 10.-Jacob A.
Riis gave lecture last night in the
college chapel on the battle with the
slums, which he illustrated with stere-
opticon views.
The battle with the slums, said Mr..
Refs, is a fight for the homes, which
are the very life of the republic. III
New York city three-fourths of the
people are toilers, living in the tene-
ment houses, where there is likely to
be little or no home life, but where all
the influences make for unrighteous-
ness and for the corruption of the
young.
The first thing to be done is to let
light into the dark corners of the tene-
ments and the first work of the board
of health thirty-flve years ago was 20
cut windows into 10000 rooms, for It
was held that where a plant would not
grow a baby could not live. After
thirty-five years the fight for better
tenements is still on, and it will con-
tinue as long as greed prompts land
lords to extract a profit of 25 per cent
instead of a. reasonable amount.
Mr.. Riis had thrown on the screen
the view of a block of the old tene-
ment houses, where there was only one
bathtub in the entire block, and that
one hanging in the airshaft, and con-
trasted these houses with those built
by Anthony White, well-lighted and
ventilated, with an inner court con-
tanning small park, giving a pleasant
| outlook instead of the dark airshaft
where the sunlight never entered. The
old tenement houses were hot beds Of
crime. The first lessons of the youth
were lessons of gambling and the boys
played at picking each others pockets.
| Conditions were improved by tearing
down the old filthy houses and opening
up public play grounds on their sites
Another method that worked equally
| well was the building of beautiful,
well ventilated school houses in the
tenement district, for when ideals are
put in the slums the battle is won.
Mr.. Ris described the condition of
the police lodging houses at the time
| when he came to America thirty-five
years ago, and then threw upon the
screen the picture of Theodore Roose
welt, who, he said, did more than any
one else to blot out the evil features
of these breeders of crime. The pic
ture was greeted by a prolonged out
| burst of applause.
| A picture of Colonel Ware followed
two views, showing the condition of a
city street under Tammany, and after
| it had been cleaned through the in
| fluence of Ware. This picture was
also enthusiastically applauded. Mr..
Riis said that the work of improve
ment done in the slums convinced him
that he was living in Gods world and
not in the DEVILS. He believed that
where the sunlight penetrated decency
would come in, and also that the sur
est way to teach a man not to abuse
his rights was to give him rights to
practice on.

Panama Canal Zone
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-After main
tanning it's record for the rapid dis
position of private pension bills, 433
being passed in an hour, the house to-
day considered for short while the
bill providing a government for the
Panama canal zone, which among other
things abolishes the Panama canal COM
mission and places the management
of the zone in the hands of the presi-
dent. In explaining the measure, Mr..
Mann, ILL.,, said that it was not in
tended as reflection on the present
commission, but that it was necessary
to separate the engineering problems
from the administrative problems in
constructing the canal. The bill, he
said, left the president authority to ap-
point any of the present commissioners
as consulting engineers.
The measure was still under consid-
Grafton when the house adjourned.

What Liquozone Is

Liquozone is product which in the
past two years has sprung into world
wide use in the treatment of germ dis
eases. 1t is now used by the sick of
nine nations; by physicians and hospi-
tails everywhere. 1t is constantly used
in millions of homes in America.
The virtues of Liquozone are derived
solely from gas. made in large part
from the best oxygen producers. No
drugs, no alcohol-nothing but this gas
enters into 1t. The process of making
takes IA days and requires immense
apparatus. At the end of two weeks
we get one cubic inch of Liquozone for
each 1850 cubic inches of gas used. The
attainment of this product has, for
more than 20 years, been the constant
subject of scientific and chemical re-
search.
The main result is to get into a liquid
and thus into the blood a powerful yet
harmless germieIde. And the product
