OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla, Aug. 21.
Oklahoma and Tulsa counties are
asked To contribute $1,000 each and
MuskoRee county $500, while the
other counties Of the state ore re-
quested to put in from $1,000 down to
800 toward the $4,000 fund to be
raised by the state council of defense
which seems to be necessary for the
successful pronunciation of the work
OF the council. Assurance is being
given that the next Legislature will be
asked to appropriate sum sufficient
to reimburse those who have con-
trihuted To the fund.
The state council has apportioned
the amount to he raised from each
county and the collection of it is left
to the county council. A record must
be kept Of each person contributing
and the amount. This, then will fur
nish the record on which reimburse
ment Will be made should the legis-
lature agree to refund the money.
II is contended that funds are need
ed to pay help in carrying on the work
OF the state council. There is con-
siderable expense in various ways, and
il requires funds to do the work. The
state council believes that IL should
not he a difficult matter to raise the
money.

ITALY TO LIMIT DOMINATION
Can Gain No Advantage by Undue Elk
pansion on Eastern Shores Of
Adriatlc, Declares Writer.

II is, Of course, evident that Italy
las no advantage to gain from an un-
due expansion of her territorial hold
ings on the eastern shores of the Ad-
Ratio, Guglielmo Ferrero writes in the
Atlantic. Here the Italian population
lives only on the coast, or near ii, and
for this reason Italy cannot spread
her domination far into the interior
without mourning the risk of coming
into serious and severe conflict with
the subject Slavic population, or with
those Slavic states which will be in II
position to intervene In their defense.
Italian mastery of the eastern coast
would therefore be limited to a thin
littoral strip of land, and one need not
be a great strategist to understand
what disadvantage it would be for
Italy to have to defend long line of
frontier q few dozen kilometers from
the coast, behind which would lie 1t
vast hinterland occupied by people
Seething with discomfort at being cut
off from the sea.
If Italy, then, does not wish to be-
come involved In long and arduous
wars for the conquest of this hinter-
land, her purposes will be best served
by reducing to a minimum her terri
torial annexation on the further shore
Of the Adriatic.

How Alexander Assumed Power.

AS the old legend goes, the father
of Greek King Midas, once king Of
Phrygia, was originally poor peasant.
The people of Phrygia being much dis
turbed, an oracle had informed them
that a wagon would bring them a king
who would put an end to all their
troubles. Not long after this saying.
Gordius Midas father) suddenly ar
rived in the midst Of an assembly OF
the people, riding in his wagon. At
once, to the great surprise of Gordius,
they made him king. In his gratitude,
Gordius dedicated the wagon to the
god Zeus, and 1t was placed In the
acropolis at Gordium. The pole Of the
wagon was tied to the yoke by knot
Of bark, and second oracle declared
that whoever united that knot should
reign over all Asia. 1t was Alexander
who united the knot with his sword
thus assuming himself to be the man
referred to by the oracle.

MOST SUICIDES IN THE WEST
Explained by Large Number Of Health
and Fortune Seekers Who Go to
That Section Of Country.

The most suicidal city in the United
States is San Diego, Cal, which had a
suicidal rate in 1915 OF 1913 per 100000
people; the least is Holyoke, Mass.
where the rate for the same year was
81, says Worlds Work. In 100 cities
the suicide rate for 1915 was 20.3 per
100000 people. Figures running back
fen years show precisely the same or
der of precedence in different parts of
the United States. The eastern states
have the lowest rate-from 1910 to
1914 It was 165-the southern states
come next, and then the rate increases
progressively as one goes west, reach
ing the highest rate on the tactic
coast, and especially In California.
Certain explanations come immedi-
ately to mind. California attracts
many invalids, and dependency over
their physical condition may increase
the suicide percentage of the state
The Rocky mountain and Pacific states

proportion fail in the quest. The East
and South are more settled in their
ways. less subject to sudden business
and social upheavals, and consequently
more the home of steadygoing people
The West is more adventurous and
still attracts a considerable number
of people whose varying temperaments
and varying fortunes might easily ex-
plain its greater tendency to self
murder.
