CALGARY, Alberta, October 12-Fol,
lowing fierce rioting last night between
Canadian soldiers from the concentra.

Mounted Police, the city is now com.

The police were driven back to their
barracks, despite the assistance attempt.

lice force, and the barracks surrounded
by the militiamen. "'lr
After a short siege the soldiers storm!
ed the barracks, smashed in the doors
and windows and took possession, com
pletely wrecking the building. During
the fighting the Mounted Police fired
upon the rioters, this SO infuriating the
soldiers that they set FIRE to the bar.
racks after capturing it.
This is the second outbreak in Cal.
gary on the part of the members of the
Canadian Overseas Forces, who are as.
sembled in training camp on the out.
skirts of the city. The first rioting
took place some months ago, the sol.
diers breaking out when report was
circulated that rathskeller proprietor,
with German name, had discharged
all his walters who happened to be re-
turned Canadian soldiers and had re,
placed them with slaekers.
The soldiers wrecked the rathskeller
and then marched through the streets,
| tearing down all signs that appeared to
them to indicate German OF Austrian
ownership. In ease of protest they
wrecked the buildings as well.

got left with the men,"
What possesses the Pittsburgh divine TO
believe that women seek physical comfort
in dress? II is comfort of mind they are
after. and that can come only with the
knowledge that what they wear is creating
the intended impression. Squeezed into
corsets of reinforced concrete, hobbled
and helpless in narrow skirts, their feet
tortured in tight shoes, they can yet re-

Not Yet Cleared Up.

Mr.. Shonts has made a detailed and
smooth explanation of the phrase com
mitments and obligations which came to
light in the Young-Lane MEMORANDA re-
garding the contract for third-tracking
the elevated lines. lie has denied that
there was any sinister favoritism in his
advocacy Of the Stevens contract; he has
testified that Mr.. Lane, the chief pro-
testant against it, admitted complete con-
fidence in his personal integrity, but
couldn't "say as much about some of your
associates" He has even gone so far as
to urge the executors of the late Mr.. Lane
to make public any papers or documents
they may have bearing on this point.
There still remain certain points on
which the Thompson committee must re-
ouire further light. One of these is why
Messrs. Lane and Read retired from the
Interborough directorate, after manifest
ing their suspicious about the contract
Under consideration. Another is how the
protestants against this contract got the
idea that Mr.. Shonts or Mr.. Stevens or
Mr.. Freedman was to, benefit personally
by it. Mr.. Shontss testimony does not
make the record complete by any means.
Mr.. Freedman is dead. Mr.. Lane Is dead,
but something may be gained from his
papers. Mr.. Read, fortunately, is alive,
and. from the description Mr.. Shonts has
given of him, should provide entertaining
testimony. Mr.. Young still has story to
tell, undoubtedly.
Mr.. Shonts's explanation Of Commit
ments and obligations" should be fanked
in the testimony by all the information
the minority at that time in the Inter
borough can give about this mysterious
phrase.

phrase.

Even the most persistent adversary Of
the corporation and the capitalist must
admit that there is some merit in the
argument against the Philippines scuttle
made by Mr.. Charles NJ. Swift, president
of the Philippine Railway Company. lie
represents two enterprises in the islands,
the Manila Electric Railroad and Light
Company, which he admits is tolerably
successful, and the Philippine Railway
Company, a struggling concern. "ln both
cases." he tells the Committee on lnsulaT
Affairs of the House of Representatives
"the investment made by myself and asso-
ciates was in response to invitations com
ing from Washington. Not one of the men
who risked his capital would have taken a
share in either enterprise if it had been
proposed to launch them on any but Amer
lean soil" But if the scuttle actually oc.
ours, the Philippines will no longer be
American soil, and, Mr.. Swift declares
"our securities will not be worth 10 cents
on the dollar. The result will be tanta-
mount to confscation Of nine-tenths OF
their value"
No one familiar with conditions in the
Philippines can doubt the truth of that
statement. To exclude the Philippines
from America would be to depreciate, il
rot to destroy, every American investment
there. This is, perhaps, one of the smaller
phases of the issue, but it is not un-
worthy of serious consideration. 1t IN
