Government would take over and con

have raised a dreadful picture Of
some compulsory provost marshal gen

hand Of Federal power on the suffer

enough open for all citizens Of the
United states to vote in electinE
Presidents, Senators and members OF
Congress. Senator King OF Utah
made one OF the most eloquent
speeches OF the session against the
renewal OF mllitarism and compulsion
in controlling elections. No argument
against compulsion offered to beat
the force bill under the Harrison ad-
ministration escaped him. He pleaded
for leaving the South alone with an
eloquence rarely heard in or out of
the Senate. Some Southern Senators
did not seem to be as grateful as they
might have been. After the Smoot
amendment to include primaries had
been adopted. 80 to 10. the Gerry bill
was put aside for the conference re-
port on the twelve billion dollar army
bill.

ing episode was the presentation of
a letter by Congressman GaIlivan OF
Massachusetts, from Former President
Roosevelt After the treaty of Ports
mouth. Colonel Roosevelt was
awarded the Nobel peace prize of
$4,000. He had donated II as the
foundation for an industrial peace
fund. TO be managed by a commission
provided for by Congress. As II was
now lying unused, he wished to re-
call it for application TO the needs OF
war relief work through such great
organizations as the Red Cross, the

be made accordingly as soon as pos
sible in both House and Senate. The

Senator Pomerene and another was
reported as written TO Senator Mar

delegation which interviewed the
President at the White House. Its
return to House and Senate resulted
in night sessions of both bodies. Aft

In the House debate on fixing the
price Of wheat. the great cotton
states and the great grain ststes OF
the Northwest developed what Is
probably a permanent political breach.
As the great eapitalized wheat States
Of the Northwest, worked chiefly BY
hiEh-priced machinery, drove their
demand for the highest possible price
for wheat against the "Solid South"
IN its control of the House. the in
terest OF the Southern Cotton Baron
was once more apparently the inter
est OF the working masses Of the
great cities. on whose bread the i'm
position Of prohteering prices be-
cause Of war might seem the worst
OF all profteerinE. But as the situa-
ton has developed. with the masses
OF city and town jewellers put on war
rations which have too little wheat
in them to be worth considering. the
issue in Congress was really between
the great -cotton-grower, who relies
on controlling his colored "held
hand" under the @work or night"
plan. and the great wheat baron
whom science and invention have al
most freed from the need OF controll-
ing poems. On this issue, the COM
promise in the House was a victory
for the Northwest Mr.. Lever OF
South Carolina, who led the Admins
tration forces, was quoted as say
ing that the President will veto the
bill. In the Senate, during the after
d noon session, Senator Gore discussed
openly the expectation OF a veto with
out committing himself to belief in it.
The interest in any event was Sec

that is the question rather than that

A clearance sale in war times
with prices so high! You ask.
Most assuredly. Would you
neglect to clean your house be-
cause of the war? OF course
not. A clearance sale is moth
ing but a house cleaning of the
entire store. .
Every department of a great
establishment like this accumu-
lates small quantities which
must be cleared away for the
coming fall merchandise, which
will begin TO arrive in a few
days now.
We'll grant that accumula-
tons aren't quite so large this
year as usual, and for that rea-
son the sale will be of much
shorter duration.
We might also say that sew
eral special purchases have
been included in this great sum-
mer sale as a sort of seasoning
the silk dresses, for instance,
etc.
Good housewives who are
having trouble to make their
money go round will find this
an exceptional opportunity to
buy needed merchandise way
under the regular retail selling
price. u

is OLD SPANISH STRONGHOLD
Little Mexican Village of San Bias Has
Little Left to Show 1t Once Was
Place of Importance.

Sprawled over low. fiat ground that
stretches from it's narrow harbor TO
the foothills of the Cordilleras; dotted
by one towering cliff that rises abrupt
ly mile from the sea, and half cor
cealed in a dense growth of tropical
foliage, is the little Mexican village OF
San Blas-once the greatest Spanish
stronghold of the western world. At
least you are expected to believe this,
although at first glance it seems quite
incredible, says a world traveller.
Today the town consists chiefly Of
one main street, paved with cObb,e-
stones, between which the grass grows
luxuriantly. Here San Bias conducts
its business affairs in neat little shops,
lives in substantial adobe houses and
lounges in the tiny cafes. which are
all run by Cinnamon, slipping tequila
and eating green coconut. There is the
usual central plaza, of course, where
the band plays in the evening; a the
alter where people bring their own
chairs. and q market place where the
san Bias citizen buys everything from
his rice for dinner to his shoes and
rosary. Branching off from the main
street are divers muddy little roads
running crookedly in every direction
and lined with little huts made of poles
and mud, with matched roofs and with
out floors, their Uginess half hidden by
rhododendrons and scarlet hibiscus.
