MexicGns Warned Not To
Celebrate independence
(By Associated Press)

PUEBLO, Col, Sept. IS. - Mexican
residents of Pueblo were adviced TO
day by Adalaido J. Ortiz, Mexican con-
sui in Denver, to refrain from cele-
brating the anniversary of independ-
ence Of Mexico from Spanish rule.
This was the only action by the
consul in connection with the lynching g
here Saturday night of Jose Gonzales
and Calvadore OrteZ, Mexicans, fol
lowing their murder of Patrolman JEFF
Evans.
Ortez said he was awaiting instruc-
tions from Mexican Ambassador Banil-
las at Washington. The only sem
blance of disorder since the lynching
was the firing of two shots last night
at a patrolman; neither shot took
effect and the identity of his assailant
was not discovered.

Movies Molding New
American Queens, Say
Artists of Chicago

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 15-"Girls will
be psychologically affected by moving
pictures" says dorado Taft, the sculp-
tor. They see beautiful women on
the screen; then they go home and
practice for hours before the mirror.
The outcome? Graceful walking,
pleasant faces, fine compilations and
vivacity. Still, the hoydenish and
caper-cutting actresses are a bad in
fuence."
In the opinion of Miss Indiana Gy,
berson, an Irish painter who has
studied in Paris and Madrid, the
movies have made American women
more beautiful.
''Ah, the rising generation of Chi.
cago girls" she exclaimed. "One
sees far, far larger number of charN
ing women here now. Let them talk
of cabaret dancing and rich pastries
running the attractiveness. 1t is the
movies that are molding ever-fresh
types of native beauty-new American
types
Yet she conceded that the screen
plays WELD an influence that will work
either good or evil.
Remember the recent avalanche OF
'vamps' in Chicago?" she went on;
girls who slinker-slouched when they
walked, rolled their eyes alluringly
and tried to look naughty? They were
copying the movie queen of the
moment. Now we're getting the ath
lettc, vigorous, smiling girl in the
films. 1t is good.

were heavily armed they were not ex-
pected to submit docilely.
So they were ordered to Boutirky
Jail to execute prisoners 'of the Boil

gaily and were marched to inner en-
closures where the officers left them
to fetch the condemned men.

that machine guns menaced them
from every window and the warder
ordered them to surrender. Realizing
their heiplessness their threw their
weapons away and were marched in

MUST BE NO SAGGING"
ROOSEvELT'S LAST PLEA
Applies In Most Direct Manner to Pop
u'ar Support Of Nations Finan-
cling Projects.

That Theodore Roosevelt's last plea
to America, There must be no sag
cling back" has the most direct appli-
cation to popular support of govern
ment financing projects, including sale
OF War Savings Stamps was the state
ment made today by A. R. Rogers,
chairman of the central committee,
War Loan organization for the Ninth
Federal Reserve District.
Roosevelt with his keen American.
ism saw the possibility of sag COM
ing with the actual fighting at an end
and was most earnest worker to
keep the hearts and thoughts of tho
people placed right during the period
of rebuilding the same as in the war
period" Mr.. Rogers said.
Every argument that applied to the
habit Of thrift during the war applies
to it today. The personal benefit Of
saving Is as great as ever, the profit
from interest on the investment is still
as good as it was. The security of
any loan made to the government was
unquestionable and. today, with fight
ing at an end and even the possibility
that Germany might triumph gone, it
is perfect. 81
when Roosevelt said there must
be no sagging' he meant that the hab.
its of right action developed by the
war must be continued. If he had
been asked he would have said that
for the American earners to keep, for
their future benefit and the bene-
fit Of their families, a part Of
their earnings, was just as i'm
portant as any of the big national
policies. He would have said that to
the Garner and saver himself savings
are immensely important. -
ITO stop saving and buying War
Savings Stamps today would be as
bad for the man at home as it would
be for the soldier holding the Rhine
to go on duty from now on without q
rifle. Cashing the stamps now which
a person has bought before, is simply
q retreat, as If the army that fought it's
way to victory should run back to the
Marne and beckon to the enemy to
pour into France once more"
