THE whole situation with refer
ence to the Adamson law and It's ef-
feet upon organized labor is outlined
in an article written by G. O. Couit-
err, editor OF the Kansas City Amerl-
can Railway Employees Journal. ANY
thinking man whose interests are d.
rectly affected by the Adamson law
cannot help but repudiate the whole
miserable action and show his resent
ment of the attempted selling out or
t.ieir interests for political purposes.

Consular District Has Only One The
ater and tho Admission Prices
Vary.

There is but one motion picture es-
tablishment in the Tegucigalpa, Hon
1uras consular district, the Teatro de
Variedades, in Tegueigalpa. A mum.
ber of causes combine to prevent the
industry from being more successful,
among which are poor transportation
facilities, the small purchasing power
Of the masses, the sparse population
generally, and the lack of electric serv.
Ice in all the other interior towns
In Tegucigalpa performances are
given three or four nights week, COM
mencing at $3.50 or o'clock, and last
.'ng until midnight or after. Approx
mately about forty-nine hundred feet
of film are shown nightly. The prices
of admission vary with the quality of
the film. Old films, of the regular
stock sketches, are sometimes dis
played at prices ranging from ten to
thirty cents, depending on the loca-
ton Of the seats. Other nights, when
such films as LES Miserables" are
run, the prices are trebled; and for
ordinary new films the usual charge
is about fifty cents for the best seats.

M0SLEMS TO BE RECOGNIZED
Legislation viii Make Their Religion
Legally Recognized by
Hungary.

The Moslem religion will be legally
recognized in Hungary if bill intro
duced by the Hungarian minister OF
justice is enacted into law by the Hun
garian diet.
In addition to giving the Moslem
religion every right enjoyed by any
other recognized faith in Hungary, the
proposed law will also permit the
teaching of Mohammedan dogma and
the founding of Moslem religious in
stitutions so far as they are not in
conflict with the existing laws.
While Mohammedans in Hungary
have in the past enjoyed full liberty
of conscience, they we're as yet de-
prived of certain civil rights which
functionaries of other recognized
creeds exercised. The bill now before
the diet effaces some of these inabilt-
ties automatically, as soon as it be-
comes law, while others are removed
by express provisions, as was done In
the case of the Mohammedans of Bos-
MIA and Herzegovina.
OF Moslem communities in Hungary
the Danube island of Ada Kale, near
Orsova, is the largest, though groups
large enough to form religious COM
munities are found in many parts of
the country.

Use Hay for ereastworks.

Many thousands of tons of Texas
hay are being used as hulwark against
bullets on the lines of defense by the
British and French governments, Gal
weston dispatch to the New York
World states.
This fact has Just come to light by
the statements of foreign buyers of
hay, who also direct the compression
of the tales before shipment from this
port, to make them as nearly bullet
proof as possible.
Three ordinary field bales are COM
pressed into one bale before being
loa6ed Oh vessel. This process gives
a bale the density that is said to make
it equal to steel plate in stopping bull
let's. 1t is stated that trenches are
being lined with the bales of hay.

May Be Longest European War.

1t is pointed out that if the war
lasts until the autumn of 1916 1t will
have been longer than any great war
in Europe since the fall Of Napoleon.
Each of the two Balkan wars Of
1928 was a matter of weeks. 50
were the SeFbo-Bulgarian war Of
1885 and the Turco-Greek war of 1897.
The Crimean war lasted little m2re
than year, while the Prussian
war was practically decided in a
month, although Paris was holding out
seven months afterward The Russo
Japanese war lasted about twelve
months, as did the Turco-Italian war
in 1911-12. The Boer war ran for
two and half years, but that can
not be called European war. The
American Civil war lasted for four
years.

BUSINESS BOOMING IN JAPAN
Long Spell Of Depression Has Been
Succeeded by Gratifying Era Of
Good Times.

After long spell of depression the
tide has turned in Japan. But for the
war and cheap rice" says the Japan
Times. the turn would have come
months ago. But the farmers make
up with the abundance of their crop
for the cheapness of the grain, and
the war itself has brought consider
able prosperity to not few lines of
industry and business, as the company
returns for the first half-yearly term
show. Compared with the preceding
term, 13 weaving companies saw an
increase Of their profits by $40 per
cent. chemical industry companies by
120 per cent, seven exchanges by SO
per cent, four sugar companies by 80
per cent, seven warehouse companies
by 70 per cent, 19 spinning companies
and four -four mill companies by 45
per cent. Increases of profits seem
to have been and to continue to be
the general rule, the exceptions being
the railway. gas, kiln and few other
businesses. Most noticeable of all,
raw silk has of late been going up in
price until IL has now more than re-
covered the high level of 1000 yen
bale, which it fetched before the out
break of the war. The fact seems to
be that a business revival is already
here, and it only requires the loosen
ing of capitalists purse strings for
new enterprises to make the country
realize the turn OF the tide"

War Economy.

Richard Harding Davis, the war cor

Pittsburgh:
"The allies are getting together at
last. They are working together In

"They were pretty selfish at first.
Their selfishness was typical, in fact,
by an economy story-a story about
a rich Englishman.
This wealthy old fellow, when the
economize-and-save movement was at
its height, said warmly over a regalia
and glass of liqueur brandy at the
club:
'Economize, Ell? Economic, is it?
Well, by Jove, it's incredible how one
can economize if one sets ones mind
to it. Topped five pounds week of
