Der Of the Equity, who was seated In
the east end Of the chamber, arose
and told of the success of the $4,000
elevators in North Dakota in man.
ner which somewhat contradicted the
statements made by Divit. Greeley
stated the $4,000 elevators were profit
able, and added that the $4,000 ter,
minal elevator in st. Paul would care
for 40 cars a day or 100000 bushels of
grain.
Il said l didn't come in here on my
own volition and l don't give ---
how you feel" shouted Divet in a
stentorian voice which rang out into
the corridors. II don't give a
how you feel!" he repeated. "You
men will either keep faith with me or
will get out! Now, you are trying
to put me on the PAM"
II would not insult You for any
thing, Mr.. Divet," hurled back Gree
ley. "You mean to say, Mr.. Divet,
that it is not worthy proposition at
the price,"
II may be wrong" replied Divet,
"but if l am shown where the $4,000
proposition will work out we'll, I am
willing to concede, but as long as l
think the scheme will fail, l am not
in favor of it as an Investment"

out Magnus Johnson in lound tones.
you can't be the judge" Farmers
in the corridors hearing wild exclama-
tons commenced crowding into the
supreme court chamber. Some left
the courtroom. Divet walked toward
the door and faced Johnson.
"You can't stand up and show that l
am fool" interposed Greeley
while Divet and Johnson were in
heated seance of words.

Said All Social Problems
Begin and End With the
Child-Told of Conditions
in the Larger Cities.

1.-THE Child and the Community" was
the subject of DR.. Harry A. Ward, OF
Boston university, in the first Of the
Hazlett lectures before the student
body in the Normal school auditorium
Thursday morning. Besides the stu
dents and members of the faculty the
p. E. O. sisterhood, in convention in
this city, and many local citizens, fill
ed the galleries. In the absence OF
President Mcfarland, Vice President
McMullen told in few words the his
tory of the Hazlett foundation and
former speakers in similar occasions
Rev. Vermilya introduced the speaker
Of the morning.
Social problems, DR.. Ward said, be-
gin in the child and end in the child.
This has not been generally recognlz'
ed by society in the past and some OF
these days, it was pointed out, we are
going to change our point of attack
on some of the existing evils. While
we are pretty we'll agreed on the fun
damental rights of the child, we have
not come to agree on the fact that
these must be guaranteed by the com
munity. These rights have been Sc
cured by the family so far as they
have been secured for the child, but
thus far not by the organized commun'
ity, which must step in to secure full
rights.
In rural communities, where life is
not complex, where there is that
greater freedom of individual, the
speaker showed, the child has more
fully come into the possession of those
rights which are his. Not so in the
crowded urban districts, where the eff.
fort of one family is offset by the neg
lect Of the next one, and where con-
tamination is easier. Tere, too, the
cost of living is so high as to make
for the more sqalid conditions that
rob the child of his right.
The rights of the child, the speaker
outlined as:
l. The right to be we'll born.
2. The right to have proper shelter
and nourishment.
3. The right to secure adequate de-
velopment.
As to the first of these rights, the
speaker warned against the ravages
of alcohol and venereal diseases. As
to the second he told of some of the
conditions that actually exist in the
crowded slums of our larger cities
and some of the outlying districts in
some of our smaller western towns
Not only in India, said DR.. Ward, dc
children go to bed hungry, but also
thousands retire in this country night
after night with the same pangs.
Only so per cent of the children oil
this country ever complete the eighth
grade, the other 40 furnish the menace
of the slums and the back streets. Ev
cry child should have the right to con
ditions that will develop his capaci
ties.
That these are some Of the thing!
society must take in hand in ordel
that the race may progress as i
should, was the burden of DR.. Ward
address Thursday morning. 1t was ;
masterful presentation of an ever.
day subject that needs immediate at
tention in every community.
DR.. Ward will speak again in tn.
Normal auditorium this evening a
S:15 and the general public is cordial,
invited to hear him tonight as we'll a.
tomorrow morning and tomorrow eve
ming. Admission is free.

John Nalz and James B. Gall. After

Grafton of other business was lost by

When Zapata Forces En-
tered Mexico City
Yesterday
STATE DEPARTMENT
GETS INFORMATION
John B. McManus, Former
ly of Chicago, Was
the Victim

Washington, D, G., March l2.--John
b. McManus, originally Of Chicago, a
prominent American in Mexico City, was
killed yesterday when the Zapata forces
entered the city. An American flag was
flying over his house and the doors had
been sealed by the Brazilian consul, ac-
cording to advices to the state depart
mcnt to-day from the Brazilian minister
in Mexico City.
General Salazer, the post commander,
promised the Brazilian minister he would
punish those responsible for the murder,
which is said to have been one of re-
yenge because it was charged that Nc
Manus killed three Zapatistas when they
We're in the city previously.
Secretary Bryan took the dispatches
on the killing of McManus to the cabi-
net meeting and laid them before Presi-
dent Wilson. Bryan said no representa-
tions would be made pending furth' r
details, but full investigation viii be
made. The incident is regarded very Sc
riously at the White House.

MILD WARNING NOTE
SENT BY PRES. WILSON
Informing Carranza and obregon that
They Lose Their Standing With
United States if They Should
Do Certain Things.

Washington, D. c., March L. Both
Generals Carranza and Obregon have
been informed that the prestige Of the
cause for which they are fighting would
be seriously affected, in the view OF the
United States government, should they
fail to take prompt measures to prevent
famine in Mexico City and TO permit
the free exodus OF foreigners to Vera
Cruz.
This was the principal argument, it
was learned to-day, in note sent by
the United States government in reply
TO Carranza's communication, denying
that 0bregon had interfered with the
shipment of food supplies TO Mexico City
or that he has made utterances which
the American government believed might
cause anti-foreign riots.
Officials here are confident that the
exchange OF notes viii produce better
understanding and the tension of the
situation has been greatly relieved by
the friendly character Of Carranza's re-
ply.

But Germany Must Make 1t
Voluntarily, Is U. S.
Position
REGARDING AMERICAN
SHIP, WILLIAM P. FRYE
Authorities Believe Prinz
Eitel Had No Right
to Sink Her

Washington, j. c., March l2.--Conti-
Dental reports on the condition OF the
German auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel
Friedrich, in drydock at Newport News,
seem to make it certain that she will
be forced to intern. Capt Kiehne of
the American ship William ?. Frye,
which was snuk by the Eitel, is expect
ed in Washington tomorrow to make a
sworn statement OF the incidents con-
nected with the sinking of the vessel
Newport News, Va, March l2.-Capt.
Thierrichsen of the Prnz Eitel esti-
mates that it will require about three
weeks to repair his ship
Washington, ID. c., March l2.-Unless
the German government voluntarily Of
fers to make restitution for the destruc-
tion of the American ship Frye, sunk
by the converted cruiser Prinz Eitel
Friedrich in the South Atlantic and ex-
presses regret for the occurrence, strong
protest will be made by the United
States with request for reparation.
Officials were unanimous in their opin-
ion-which was shared largely by dip
lomatists that the commander of the
Eitel had no right to send the Frye to
the bottom. 1t was considered probable
by officials that the German government,
after being apprised of the facts, would
admit the error of the naval commander
and make the usual reparation. Such
officials thought sufficient amends after
the payment Of damages would be the
court martislling Of the German off
Ger.
1t was made clear at the state depart
ment that whatever action would be
taken as result OF the sinking of the
Frye would be entirely disassociatcd
from questions arising out of the entry
into an American port of the Eitel de-
string time for repairs. The vessel could, !
therefore, depart leaving the questions
raised by the destruction of the Amer
lean ship TO be settled through diplo-
matte channels.
