probability if the senator carries out
this threat.
The principal argument of the
Democrats against a special debate
day for the resolution was the dan
gers of tying up all other legisla-
lion to point where it would be
absolutely necessary to hold an ex-
ira session of congress.
Senator Cummins contends that
the presidents peace proposal is OF
vastly greater Importance than any
other matter that is before congress
at the present time.

LONDON, Jan. 24.-American fu-
gitives from justice can't escape to
Europe any more. They have TO
prove too many things about them
selves that it's inconvenient to prove
before they can get either in or out.
Probably the only Americans arriv-
ing in Europe nowadays without
irst asking permission of Uncle
sam are, occasionally, sailors who
hip out Of Alno.;ean ports under
---al chess stsippers. AS soon as they
iet foot on European shores they
are arrested and held until their
hip leaves for a neutral port.
But the old pyre-war brand of ex-
tradition, which proved its almost
daily yarn for American and Europ.
ear papers, is dead.

After confer1ing with Zimmerman
Ambassador Gerard cabled Washing

impression the address had on the

The public views the address with
favor.
The officials while believing that
President Wilson has taken another
long step toward peace, believe that
Germany cannot take official cog
nizance of it.
Satisfaction, however, is openly ex-
pressed over Wilson's stand for
freedom OF the seas. Germany has
always insisted that this was the

The Democrats prevented the pas

ARCADE, FEB. IL.

Thornton Darcy, tan idealistic
poet, is at work upon an allegorical
poem, which he calls Virtue" He
devotes the first part of it to pic
turing the idyllis state of the earth
prior to the advent of evil. Virtue,
with her twin sister, Purity, it the
guiding spirit Of the world.
The play opens with Darcy seated
on the bank Of the woodland stream,
whittier he has come for solitude
and inspiration. He composes a
number of stanzas, each depicting
some allegorical scene in which Vir-
tue, or her sister Purity, is shown
exerting her gentle influence upon
the affairs Of the world. Each
stanza as it is written is thrown up
on the screen and disolves into the
action it describes. The allegory is
thus carried forward, and we see
Virtue as the companion of Art,
Music, and Poetry; as the playmate
of youths and maidens, and as. the
guide of Friendship; and we see her
walking hand in hand with Love-
She moves where she will; fearing
nothing, suspicious of nothing, in
danger of nothing; for fear and
evil do not exist.
Virtue is represented in these
scenes by nude figure, artlessly
adorned with flimy drapery.
After thus describing the pastoral
charm of the earth when Virtue
reigned supreme, Darcy introduces
the Greek myth Of Pandora, who
had been given mysterious jar,
which she has been told she must
not open. Typifying Curiosity and
The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1917-02-08

Mortal Mind, Pandora cannot re-
sist the temptation to peep into the
jar. AS soon as the lid is removed a
vapor pours forth and shapes itself
into a figure representing Evil.
In the form of a shadowy, dark
robed masculine figure, Evil quickly
makes himself felt in the world We
see him attempting to draw Art
away from Virtue; he whispers
poisonous thoughts into the ear of
Friendship, and seeks to estrange
Love from the companionship Of
Virtue and Purity He plants in
mems hearts the seeds Of lust and
passion and greed and deceit, and
the once artless and care-free Vir-
tue is beset with temptations and
dangers, and is obliged to seek
shelter in seclusion, and in careful
draping of her body, in order to
preserve herself from the influence
of Evil.

BAKERS IN CONSPIRACY
Rainey Charges Nationwide Move to
Raise Bread Price.

Washington, Feb. 13.-Bread made
out of Minneapolis flour at $11 bar
rel is selling cheaper today in Ireland
than bread made out of the same
flour in the United States before the
present increased prices of bread,
Representative Rainey, Illinois, today
declared in a letter to David Houston,
secretary of agriculture.
-Rainey charged there is a conspir-
acy by the master bakers association
of the United States and the wheat
millerS to prevent passage of the bill
repeating the tax on mixed flour
corn starch or corn flour and wheat
flour-also a concerted effort on their
part to boost the price of bread thru
out the country.
Rainey says he will tell the federal
trade commission all details in it's in
vestigation of food prices as ordered
by President Wilson.
The movement to increase the price
of bread commenced at the Salt Lake
City convention last year of the Ma
tional Bakers association at which
time it was determined there should
Be a nationwide movement to in
crease the price of bread, accom-
panied by a publicity campaign to be
undertaken for the purpose of edu-
eating people as to the necessity from
the bakers standpoint of increasing
the price of bread, Rainey said in his
letter.
