Marlin. Tex, March Q. When Ed
Mackall. trainer Of the Giants. left New
York for Marlin he brought with him, in
addition to the usual baseball parapher-
MALTA. lawn tennis rackcts, golf clubs
and hand balls. Unfortunately. he did
not think to order any skis or snow
shoes, and so the Giants found them
selves totally unprcpared for the
weather Of to-day.
The citizens of Marlin admit with
some reluctance that II showed here to-
day. Naturally. they are chagrned, but
the best they can do IS 10 promise that
il will not occur again. A townsman
who has lived IN Marlin. man and boy,
for forty-five years declared that until
now he had never seen snow in this

positive that no snow ever fell before
so late I'm the year. II Is only fair TO
state. however. that many arc of the
opinion that the negro has overestl-
mated his longevity. They maintain that
no one could live l62 years IN Texas
without showing the strain.
But the fact remains that i showed
in Marlin to-day. Nor was II a passing
furry. The fall began shortly after
midnight and continued until late this
afternoon. The flakes we're not able TO

tice was impossible. A short run in the

OFFICIALS FAVOR IDEA

The majority of the public school
teachers OF Washington are In favor Of
their organization into union, accord
ing to. the first returns of a questionable
circulated among them and proposing the
organization. Several hundred answers
were gone over yesterday by a commit
tee OF teachers. Negative answers were
rare. II was announced.
The teachers met In the Wilson Normal
School, Owing to the absence Of the
chairman Of the committee, Miss Helen
Gordon, no business was transacted.
Those In charge OF the circulation OF
the QUESTIONABLE and the collection OF
the answers turned in their papers TO
Miss Pauline Mueden. acting chairman.
Further action was suspended until the
return of Miss Gordon.
The number Of answers SO far re-
ceiyed was not divulged. but II is SO
large that the sentiment of the teaching
corps Is expressed. 1t is believed. All
the answers from the 800 teachers and
principals are expected to be filed this
week.
The questions submitted ask for an
opinion as to whether a teachers club
should be organized. where the club
headquarters should be established.
whether private teachers should be asked
to join. and what dues should be
charged The organization would be Tor
the advancement and protection OF the
teachers. its suggested policy including
features belonging to a labor union. al
though one OF the principal reasons for
the organization would be from social
standpoint.
II Is pointed out that more eauable
salaries might result from the forma-
,ion OF the club. The organization is
favored by school officials.

not great as compared with the whole
number Of those sturdy hosts by which
our nation has been enriched in recent
generations out of virile foreign
stocks; but II is great enough to have
brought deep disgrace upon US and
to have made II necessary that We
should promptly make use Of pro-
cesses OF law by which we may be
purged of their corrupt distempers.
DisIoyalty Within Nation.
America never witnessed anything
like this before. 1t never dreamed II
possible that men sworn into its own
citizenship. men drawn out of great
free stocks such as supplied some OF
the best and strongest elements OF
that little. but how heroic. nation
that in a high day of old staked its
very life to free itself from every en-
tanglement that had darkened tho
fortunes of the older nations and set
up a new standard here-that men of
such origins and such free choices of
allegiance would ever turn in malign
reaction against the government and
people who had welcomed and nur-
tured them and seek to make this
proud country once more hotbed of
European passion. A little while ago
such a thing would nave seemed IN
credible. Because il was incredible
we made no preparation for it. We
would have been almost ashamed to
prepare for it. as II we were suspici
Gus of ourselves. our own comrades
and neighbors!
But the ugly and incredible thing
has actually come about and we are
without adequate federal laws to deal
with It. urge you to enact such
laws at the earliest possible moment
and feel that in doing SO I am urging
you to do nothing less than save the
honor and self-respect of the nation.
Such creatures of passion. disloyalty
and anarchy must be crushed out.
They are not many. but they are in
finitely malignant, and the hand Of
our power should close over them at
once. They have formed plots to de-
stroy property; they have entered in
to conspiracies against the neutrality
of the government. they have sought
to pry into every confidential trans
action of the government in order to
SERVE interests alien to our own. 1t
Is possible to deal With these things
very efectual1y. I need not suggest
the terms in which they may be dealt
with.

On Preparedness.

Treating the subject of prepared
ness. Mr.. Wilson said
We will not maintain a standing
army except for uses which are as
necessary in times of peace as in times
of war, and We shall always see to
1t that our military peace establish
ment is no larger than is actually
and continuously needed for the uses
of days in which no enemies move
against us. But we do believe in a
body of citizens ready and sufficient
to take care Of themselves and of the
governments which they have set up
to serve them. In our constitutions
themselves we have commanded that
''the right of the people to keep and
bear arms shall not be infringed."
and our confidence has been that our
safety in times Of danger would lie
in the rising of the nation to take
care of itself. as the farmers rose
at Lexington.
But war has never been a mere mat
ter Of men and guns. 1t is a thing Of
disciplined might. II our citizens aIN

summons. they must know how mod
ern fighting Is done. and what to do
when the summons comes to render
themselves immediately available and
Immediately effective. And the gov
ernment must be their servant in this
matter. must supply them with the
training they need to take care of
themselves and Of 1t.
