SETS MEMORIAL DAY
Ralston Expresses Hope for
Mexican Peace.

Expressing the hope that the pres
ent Mexican situation may be settled
without the loss of another life, Gov
ernor Ralston has proclaimed Satur-
day, May 80, as Memorial day. In the
introduction of his proclamation the
governor pays the following tribute:
Union soldiers, alive and dead,
have an abiding place in the hearts
of their countrymen. AS the years
come and go the nations love for
them grows stronger. OF their serv-
ices to their country there is apprecia-
ton, but for them no adequate COM
pensation. They achieved nightly.
They interpreted for the ages the Ian
guage of our flag. They ascribed to
it loftier sentiments and flung it high
er in the heavens, that other nations
might catch its spirit and follow it.

MAENNERCHOR SINGS
German Society to Entertain
for Eagles.

Comedy singing by the MRnnerchor
will feature the third evening of the
Eagles indoor carnival tonight. The
full chorus will take part in the fes-
tival in addition to the booths and
stands and vaudeville acts running
each night.
Several hundred people visited the
new nest last night, participating in
the carnival, the proceeds from which,
members believe. will be adequate to
furnish the home as planned.
The chorus and novelty work of the
MRnnerchor singers is well known to
Richmond people, and will be the
means, members believe, of drawing
the largest crowd Of the week

JBY LEASED WiREl

CHICAGO. May 20.-Modern fash
ions and manners were severely cen
sured and general warning was
issued to Presbyterians in the blue
book which was distributed today to
delegates at the opening meeting Of
the Presbyterian General Assembly.
The book contains the reports Of
twenty special committees, the most
startling item being that Of the white
slave traffic committee appointed at
the last session in Atlanta.
The vulgar tendency of modern
fashion is one feature of modern life
that contributes to the increase OF the
social evil" the report says.

Presbyterians Condemn
Modern Fashions
in Blue Book

To-day many of our women are go
ing to such extremes in dress as to
shock even the least prudish and open
American womanhood to the charge of
a complete forfeiture of modesty
The unfortunate side is that all the
women of the church whose most con
spicuous adornment is supposed to be
meekness, are quite as guilty of this
Offense as are women who make no
religious professions
The increasing craze for excitable
and unchaste amusements and the
present day literature are also classed
as contributory factors.

Neither Federals Nor Rebels
Allowed to Close HarbOr,
Positive Declaration of
Secretary Roosevelt.
Cabinet Makes Decision Last
Friday, But Keeps Publica-
ton of News Silent Until
Today.
BY WILLIAM NELSON TAFT,
Staff Correspondent Of the lnterna
tionaI News Service at the
White House.

WASHINGTON, May 2O.-Tampico
will be kept an open port, regardless
of any Protest that President Huerta,
of Mexico, may make against such ac-
ton Acting secretary of the Navy
Roosevelt said today:
We are desirous of seeing the port
of Tampico open for commerce. If
any force, Constitutionalist or Federal,
attempts to close it, it will be contrary
to the wishes of this country. Some
representations will be be made by the
United States. and if these fail"
by guns?'
"Well, maybe
Make Decision Friday.
This policy was adopted by Presi-
dent Wilson and his advisers at
cabinet meeting last Friday. The
facts became public today only after
an announcement made by Secretary
of State Bryan that "Tampico is an
open port"
New complications were added to
the Mexican situation by the announce
ment by Secretary Bryan that Tam
pico is regarded by the United States
Us an open port"
This phase OF the problem contains
an element of danger, according to di-
plomats. That President Huerta will
protest vigorously against policy
which will put this country in the
light of helping the Constitutionalists
to obtain war munitions to be used
against him is not doubted.
Face Dilemma.
Hence with Villa hurting his army
against Saltillo. and Deputy Consul
John R. Silliman still missing and
hops for his safety dwindling, Wash
ington officials are asking How long
Will the peace conference last"
= The two Mexican gunboats, acting
Secretary Roosevelt said. probably
would not leave Puerto Mexico. They
are being carefully watched by our
warships 1t is supposed that onr navy
will see to it that the Mexican gun
boats do not leave that port
There have been no definite Or
ders sent to Admiral Mayo concern
ing the future course at Tampico,"
said Mr. Roosevelt. But orders he
has received have given him such
wide discretion that he will be able
to handle any situation that may arise
There is such large if in the prob
lem of the Mexican gunboats block
eding the Panuco river that l do not
believe the question will ever arise"

KEEP CHILDREN OUTDOORS

Sunlight is demanded by all. We
pity the man or the woman who is
obliged to work out of it. Give the
sunlight a chance to protect your
child from germ enemies which sur
round him from his earliest days.
Get out into the open country with
him as often and for as long as you
can. Sunburn, tan, freckles, in mod

WATCH YOUR GLOVES; PRICES
SOARING!
The pair of long, white gloves that
have seen better days" may be made
as good as new if the tops, which are
sure to be in good condition, are
stitched to a pair of new short, white
gloves.
The stitching should be done at the
wrist line.
Be sure and remove gloves prop
erly. Do not begin to pull at the end
of the fingers. Turn wrist or top over
hand and gradually work thumb and
fingers off.
When removed from the hand
smooth and shape correctly, blow in
to the glove several times, then lay
on window sill if possible to allow a
good circulation of air to get inside
of gloves. Do not roll gloves togeth-
er, but smooth the wrinkles out and
lay away.
Two pair Of gloves, purchased at
the same time, are an economy rath-
er than an extravaganza, and will, if
worn alternately, oUtwear three pair
if purchased singly, and worn con-
tinuaIly until worn out.

New York, May S-Dun's weekly re-
view will say tomorrow:
There is an improved sentiment in
commercial and industrial channels. even
though actual progress is SLOW. The bril-
liant outlook for the winter wheat crop
inspires confidence in the future, ana
the splendid agricultural prospects, ger
orally constitute the best feature of the
situation. Statistics of trade movements
are conflicting. Some encouragement Is
derived from reports regarding the lead
ing trades and industries: the weather
has initiated against full distribution
of seasonable merchandise yet there is
a wider movement in certain lines.
The cotton goods market trading is
still of 4 conservative character. The
mills continue to carry stocks, and in
certain instances cartailment has be-
come necessary. Government inquiries
have had a strengthening upon heavy
duck. which Is from 3 cents to cents
per pound above the extreme low level
recently quoted. Leather is in active
demand for all kinds Of low-priced stock.
values OF which are disproportionally
high as compared with the choice varie-
ties. There are some Indications of i'm
provemert in footwear, but conditions
in this line are not wholly satisfactory.
Aggressive operations in the speculative
markets for the leading farm staples
are lacking; wheat has tended downward
because of the outlook for an un-
precedented yield Of the winter crop.
1T Is gratifying that the business
mortality of the country Is steadily
diminishing. Statistics PREF AIRED by this
paper show that there were fewer COM
mercial reverses during April than in
any month this wear. although there was
some, increase a. contrastcd with 1915. ;

labor troubles also are responsible for
some of the idleness observed. Two views

the profound feeling of depression ruling

Against this unquestionable depression

favorable aspects as 20 the future. First
of these might be mentioned the phe-
