There Are 100000 Out of Work.

A dispatch from New York says
that the Wainwright Commission,
made up of members of the senate
and assembly and appointees of
Governor Hughes to investigate the
operation Of the employers liability
act, the causes of industrial acct
dents, unemployment, and lack of
farm labor, continued its hearing in
the city hall.
The first witness was Cora D.
Harvey the national secretary of the
national committee for the unemploy-
ed, Miss Harvey said there. were
100000 men and women in New
York who are willing to work, but
who could not secure employment.
She stated that the state should own
and operate factories for the manu-
facture of the necessares Of life,
should open mines and improve the
public highways. She declared that
the shate should be the employer and
should not do the work through con-
tractors.
In reply to question by Chairman
Wainwright, Miss Harvey said she
had no other plan except the opening
of factories by the state by which
the unemployed could procure en-
ployment.

Some patriotic souls have been
yexed because so much has been
given by the American churches TO
the cause of foreign missions. The
critics have been especially grieved
that the late John S. Kennedy, OF
New York, should have been guilty
of such waste, leaving, as he did'
two and half millions to the board
Of foreign missions of the Presby-
terian church.
Taking it for granted that the
critics are sincere it will be interest
ing to them to study the following
list of expenditures. After SO doing
they may be able to find another
leakage, the stoppage of which Will
iniure no one. Here are the figures
of expense, not including food, cloth

Fifty Apples Weigh o. Pounds.

The following is from the editorial
columns of the Spokane Review:
lone exhibitor at the apple show has
fifty apples that weigh sixty-four
pounds and nine ounces. And
thirty years ago they said down in
the Willamette valley that fruit
could not be grown at all in the In
land Empirel" Three decades is a
long time back. Wonderful changes
have been wrought since then, even
here in the garden spot of the north
west.

And yet there are those among us
who think we must permit this
bloodsucker of the bottomless pit to
continue to sap the life blood of the
PEOPLE!
The Twelfth International Con-
gress on Alcoholism was held last
July in London. Three departments
of the United States government
we're represented by delegates, the
state. navy and treasury. Twelve
representatives went abroad, and all
of them signed the report, the find
ing of which Is to condemn the
drinking habit as dangerous to pub
lie health and morals and subversive
of national, moral, commercial and
military greatness. The congress
urged the necessity of imposing the
most rigorous restrictions upon the
lIdlllt III ali hlHuD VI lulOAltdblhS .
liquors; and they especially advocate
the teaching of scientific temperance
in our schools of all grades. Especial
stress was laid upon Kidding the pub
lie mind Of the idea that alcohol,
even in small doses, is beneficial In
this connection Germany came to the
front with fine collection of color
ed charts showing the effect of al
cohol on the body, the family and on
society.
And yet we have men who call
themselves Christian, lovers of hui
manity, who will work to nullfy the
laws that would outlaw the monster
now being denounced by the whole
civilized world.

FEDERAL POLICY
SUPPORTED BY
STOCK RAlSERS
FOREST SERVICE MEASURES
FORMALLY ENDORSED
LEASING OF PUBLIC LANDS BY
GOVERNMENT APPROVED
Election of Officers Effected In Short
Order and Denver Selected
for Meeting Place
Next Year

After weathering a turbulent storm
of protest created by a dissenting
minority from Colorado, the policies OF
Clifford Pinchot and the work of the
forestry bureau, of which he is the
head, were upheld by an overwhelming
majority of the members Of the Ameri-
can Live Stock association in the final
session of the convention at the BelaSco
theater yesterday.
Fifteen resolutions were presented to
the delegates for consideration. They
outline the policy of the association.
They were read by the secretary and
passed unanimously until the two
amendments dealing with the United
States forestry service and the Curtis
Scott bill came up for consideration.
1t had been we'll known that many
members were opposed to the govern
ment policy Of controlling public lands
and to the Curtis-Scott bill, providing
for the leasing of, range lands to indi-
viduals for grazing purposes.
State Senator E. M Ammons of Lit
Teton, Colo, led the opposition to these
measures and introduced substitute res
olutionS.
Mr. Ammons criticised in severe
terms the policy of the forestry service
in Colorado, asserting that the amount
Of red tape necessary to obtain home
stead within the public range had al
most put an end to homesteading, and
that home seekers were turning else
where. He further contended that the
forest reserve policy of the federal gov
eminent was hurting the states mining
industry. =
Furthermore, he charged the federal
government with keeping settlers out
of thousands of acres of so-called wa
tershed lands which, in fact, were
stripped of timber and only fit for ag-
ricultural purposes. 1--WE people of
Colorado want the control of our own
natural resources for the upbuilding of
the state, and we favor a policy of
state control of the public range lands
The resolution which Mr. Ammons in
troduced as a substitute to that pro-
posed by the resolutions committee
reads:
Resolved, That we favor the cession

STRONG FOR COOPER
Had Been in PrecariOus Condition for
Long Time

George w. Tucker of Graniteville,
Staten Island, is among those who
have become strong believers in L. T.
Cooper. On Wednesday, wher inter-
viewed at Cooper's headquarters, he
said: "a month ago 1 was chronic
dyspeptic, caused by catarrh of the
stomach Now l am a we'll man.
az came here a month ago, saw this
man Cooper, got his New Discovery
medicine and started taking it. AT that
time everything I ate caused gas TO
form in my stomach Immediately For
an hour or so after meals 1 would he
in pain, which would not leave me al
together until nearly time for the next
meal. I had to be extremely careful
in what 1 ate, as I could only digest
the simplest food. My appetite was
very poor and 1 was nervous md ill
nourished, due to the failure of my
food to digest properly. 1 felt tired
and run down and lacked vitality. L
did not sleep well, only getting about
four hours sleep night and tossing
about even when asleep. / would wake
in the morning just as worn out as
when 1 went to bed.

Her Past Record In
vestigated

After a fruitless search for sureties
to guarantee her appearance in JUS
tice Stephens court Tuesday, Mrs.
Minnie Batchelder, or Minnie Jones. As
she prefers to be known, was placed
in the county Jail yesterday. Mrs.
Batchelder, under the name of Dora
Nelson, is charged with obtaining $500
by false pretenses from George w.
Harmer of Santa Monica, January i.
She denied the charge yesterday.
1--WE were engaged to be married."
said the woman. 'Harmer gave me
the money to purchase wedding gar
ments. He also gave me a diamond
ring worth $3.50"
A near victim of Mrs. Batchelder
was at the district attorneys office
yesterday. He is Louis Wilson, 440
Park View avenue, who came to Los
Angeles recently after a trip to Eu-
rope. He gave Deputy Horton let
ter received from the woman, who
subscribed herself "Mrs. Elsie Clark"
Wilson is a miner, formerly of Ne
vada. II saw the woman's advertise
ment promising good returns on a
small investment" he said, land COM
municated with her. She told the same
story that landed Hammer, but it
sounded fishy. She wanted $500 for n
half interest in her great property.
When 1 went home l told my wife
about it and we had a good laugh
thought no more about it until 1 read
about her arrest today"
A thorough investigation into the
woman's past life has been instituted
by S. L. Browne, chief of detectives
in the district attorneys office. 1t was
learned a criminal complaint was
filed against her in San Luis Obispo
county three weeks ago, charging her
jointly with a man named Lowen-
stein with defrauding a number oe
persons in a suitmaking proposition.
She was arrested in Los Angeles on
this charge, but arranged a release of
500 bail by telephone after Sheriff
.McFadden of Sa nLuis Obispo came
here to take her back.
No trace can be found of Lowen-
stein. He is believed by the officers
to have acted with Mrs. Batchelder IN
number of criminal transactions.
