Kansas counties may do just the
thing Mayor Jay E. House proposes
for Topeka. 1t means that adequate
law exists for the punishment of the
man who does not work. The law
went on the statute books as a re-
suit of the troubles of the wheat
growers of western Kansas. They had
been given a first hand introduction
to the I. W. w. and they wanted a
law that would take care of the dis
turber during the harvest season.
Now the law is to become available
as war measure to enforce maximum
production. In short the 1. w. w. and
the Weary William furnished the rope
for their own hanging.
The State Law.
The vagrancy act is found in the
session laws of 1917, Chapter 167.
Here are its provisions.
Section l. Any person engaged in
any unlawful calling whatever, or who
shall be found lettering without Wis
ible means of support in any COM
munity, or who, being without visible
means of support shall refuse to work
when work at fair wages is to be pro-
cured in the community, or who shall
threaten violence or personal injury
to fellow wOrkmen or to employers of
labor, shall be deemed a vagrant, and
upon conviction thereof shall be fined
nor more than five hundred dollars,
and shall be imprisoned in the county
Jail for a period not less than thirty
days nor more than six months.
Section 2. 1t shall be the duty of all
sheriffs and their deputies, chiefs of
police and police officers, and other
commissioned peace officers to
promptly arrest all persons described
in section l of this act as Migrants
who may be found in their community
and to take them before some justice
of the peace, city court or police court
in cities of the first, second and third
class, which courts are hereby auth
orized to summarily try such persons
upon such charge, and if found guilty
to pass sentence upon them as is pro-
vided in section l of this act.
Section 5. This act shall take eff
feet and be in force from and after
it's publication in the official state pa
per.

slack of Confidence"
nished also the following descriptive

Washington, May 15.-President
Wilson let it be known today that he
seriously objects to any investigation
of the general conduct of the war"
i'll a letter to Senator Martin. He
pointed out that the Chamberlain
resolution directing a renewal of the
Inquiry into aircraft production and
other war activities is unnecessarily
broad.
President Wilson declared he would
regard passage OF the Chamberlain
resolution calling for an investigation
of aircraft and other war activities as
direct vote of want of confidence
in the administration" and an attempt
by congress to take over conduct of
the war.
The president informed Senator
Martin that he had no objection to
the most searching inquiry into the
aircraft situation. but that he deemed
| inadvisa BILE at this time any investiga-
ton of the conduct of the war At
the last SESSION of congress his oppo-
sition to such an investigator put an
end to proposals that it be made. 1t
was believed that the presidents at
titude was due to the form in which
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon, chair
man of the senate military committee
introduced the resolution. The reSo-
luton authorized and directed the
committee ito inquire into and report
production in the United States or in
to any other matters relating to the
conduct of the war. by or thru the
war department
Objection to the wording of the
resolution was made yesterday by sew
eral administration senator's anS also
by Senator Thompson of Kansas.
chairman of the senate expenditures
committee to which it was referred
and who conferred with the president
late yesterday.
Members of the senate military
committee have agreed to redraft the
resolution to authorize the commit
tee to inquire merely into army activi-
ties and not into general conduct of
the war or military strategy.
The text of the presidents letter
to Senator Martin was not made pub
lie.
The only Investigations planned by
the committee which met today to ap-
point subcommittee to take charge
are into aviation. aircraft patent Ii
censing, ordnance production and
quartermasters general bureau. 1t has

office today and Informed Larimer
he was ready to take any medicine
coming TO him in connection with a
raid on lower Kansas avenue several
weeks ago. At the time the raid was

taxicab driver in whose car liquor was
found. Pat disappeared that night
and so far as is known hasn't been
in the city until today.
Pats clothes are all that the PAM
pered son of West side banker
could wish for in texture and style.
He told Larimer he had a good jub
at Kansas City and wished to go back
to it and would if he were paroled.
I arimer il, inclined to let Pat go back
and stick to his job but parole is
up to the county attorney and district
Judge.

like the idea of knowing someone is

GERMANS ARE ALARMED

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 10.
The great number of wounded
Germans who are being hurried
through Belgium to towns in the
rear of the fighting has had the eff
feet of causing general alarm among
the Huns. The cities of Courtrai,
Bruges, Client and score of small
er places have been transformed into
temporary military hospitals, and the
number of soldiers requiring atten-
ton is increasing at such an alarm
ing rate that the German Red Cross
and the military medical corps are
finding it impossible to cope with
the situation. Reports state that
hundreds of wounded are dying daily
on the ambulance trains because of
lack of medical attention.

Time.

NEW YORK, April 19.-Colonel
Roosevelt declares that he is not 60

paign. In an interview granted to
newspapermen today the Colonel
said: "You know that l am telling

that / am not interested in being
president of the United States. The
time was when I wanted office. To-
day l want only to accomplish GER

Asked regarding the outlook for
the campaign, Colonel Roosevelt said
that he had not given much thought
to politics lately and was not in a
position to discuss the situation. He
said, however, that whoever the peo-
pie of the United States elected to
represent them as chief executive,
would have a serious task to perform
and he expressed the hope that they
would choose wisely when the time

Is Now Smoking Pile of

PARIS, April 19.-The war office
has made public the fact that the
city of Rheims, in the department
of Maine, 100 miles northeast of this
city, where it nestles among hills
that were vine clad before the Ger
mans came, is now mass of smok-
ing ruins, the result of a lombard
ment which began early in the war
and ended this week, with he COM
plete destruction of the city. The
place has been burning for more
than a week and, during the time
that the fire was at its heighth, the
flames from the burning buildings
were visible to aviators from dis
lance of seventy miles.
The Germans fired more than one
hundred thousand shells into the
heart of the city during the final

population of more than 100000
and possessed many notable build

The Dutch government has con.
scented, however, to give Germany
five thousand horses in exchange fol
the privilege of importing swiss

WILSON DEVOIES
THOUGHT TO AIR
PROBLEM Of US.
Reorganization of Airplane Industry
Believed to Be Imminent
Now.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 10.
The aircraft problem, about which
there has been so much discussion
during the past several weeks, is re
ceiving the consideration of Presi-
dent Wilson, and it is believed that
he shortly will bring about com
plete reorganization of the industry
in the United States, with a view
to speeding up the manufacture of
war planes, so urgently needed on
the Western front at the present
time.
So intent is the president on bring
ing about improved conditions in
this branch of the service, that he
called off a cabinet meeting set for
this afternoon, in order that he
might confer with Secretary of War
Baker on aircraft problems.
1t is understood that the war sec
rotary devoted a large part of his
time, while abroad. to investigating
aircraft conditions in France and
Italy, and he has returned with many
suggestions fer the betterment of
the work in this country.
