TO STOP PERUVIAN HORRORS
u. S. and Great Britain Working
Hand in Hand.

London. Aug. Sir Edward Grey. the
Foreign Secrctary speaking In the House
Of Commons to-day on the atrocities In
connection with the rubber industry in
the Putumayo district OF Peru, said that
the British government did not desire TO
rest content with making the facts pub
lie but had done all that was possible
through diplomatic means 10 impress
Peru with the undesirability OF permit
ting such state OF affairs to continue.
The British government, he said, Is
keeping In the closest touch with the
United States IN this matter. and public
opinion In the United States would UNI
doubtedly prove a potent factor In pre-
venting any recurrence OF the incident.
II had been arranged for the British and
American consuls to leave together on
August for Putumayo. and the consuls
presence In that district would be a
guarantee that the horrors would not be
repeated without the world knowing 1t.
This. continued the Foreign Secretary,
marked the beginning OF a systematic WIS.,
itation OF the district. which eventually
in no great length Of time. would insure
that such horrors would not occur again.
II had been suggested 10 him that the
atrocities might have been prevented by
stopping the export OF rubber. He had
brought this point TO the attention Of the
United States as something worth consid-
ering, but II could not be done. except by
Brazil.
IL think that II any step OF that kind Is
% no taken" said the secretary 1T
should be taken when the United States
government IL convinced that some coer-
Give measure is necessary and Is prepared
TO give full support in any action that
Rrazil may take In that direction"

The average chorus girl is possessed
of much temperament as grand

fail to recognize this fact and attempt
the Sion Lagree act. The result is
that it is impossible for them to secure
the best grade OF chorus material or TO
keep good girls after they do get them.

with a big Woodrow Wilson button
on his coat lapel. Judge Lawrence
Becker returned to Hammond this
morning from Baltimore. where he had
attended the democratic national con-
vention as a tenth district delegate
He was greeted al sides like a
hero returning from battle. and be-
tween puffs from his trusty briar pipe
answered questions about the conven-
ton.
We'll 1 can say that / received some
kilograms at Baltimore congratulating
me on the Wilson vote. and 1 received
not a word in OPPOSITION. That is by
far more than some of the fellows
down there got" said the Judge with
a chuckle. some of them were shaking
in their boots to return home"
One questioner knowing Judge
Becker's admiration fer Wilson, asked
him whether he had gone to Sea Girt
Wilson's summer home to congratulate
the nominee, and to receive his thanks
1T never entered my mind" he
answered I left that for the syco-
plants and their kind"
Asked what he thought of the plat
form. Judge Becker said that. in his
estimation was really not radical as II
might have been expected TO be In view
of the fact that Bryan was one of Its
builders.
Judge Becker seemed particular,
pleased that Bryan came out OF the
convention with flying colors. He sale

brought about Wilson's nomination

Judge Becker as one OF the leading
Indiana democrats was made a member
of the committee on rules, and argued
the minority report which favored the
abolishing of the undemocratic unity
rule system. He intimated that Gov
ernor Marshal was double 70
some extent by his so-called friends,
who used his nomination merely to
futher their own interests.
Those who know the Hammond man
best are sure that he was at all times
in the thickest of the fight. Speaking
about the physical strain that a ma
tional convention entails on the dele
gate Judge Becker said that he slep.
once in a while. and that a fist fight
would have been the easiest thing to
engage in at times. He said he him
self had avoided trouble although at
times he was tempted to hand one to
some OF Roger Su1iivan's followers.

were dealing with a lot OF porch
