World Revolt of Seamen.

Observation-Disclosures that the L.
w. w. is endeavoring to get hold Of
the seamen not only of the American
Merchant Marine but Of the world to
organize a revolutionary organization
has been presented to the Department
of Justice by the Shipping Board.
The Shipping Board came into pos
session of circular letter presumably
sent broadcast to the seafaring men
Of America 1t urges them to give sup
port to the new movement on the
theory that transportation is the key of
industry and that when transportation
stops, industry stops, offering rare OPP
portunity for a revolutionary interna-
tional organization.
Shipping Board officials had no COM
ment to offer on the letter. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that the Department
of Justice will undertake an investiga-
ton.

GAVE NAME TO NEW ENGLAND
Result Of Capt. Smiths Exploration
Of Shores Of "North Virginia" in
the Year 1914

Of Shores Of "North Virginia" in
the Year 1914
Capt. John Smith, famous for his
romantic career, particularly the Po-
cahontas episode, Is generally asso-
ciated with Virginia, but he was also
the first to discover the beauties OF
the southwestern half of the Maine
coast and the first to draw map OF
II, an exchange recalls. In 1914 he ex-
plored the shores of what was then
known as North Virginia, but which
he called New England, name that
has stuck, as have many others given
by him.
In "a Description Of New England"
printed in London In 1916, Smith
wrote II have seen at least forty sew
erall habitations on the Sea Coast and
found about % excellent good har-
bors. and more than 200 isles.
From Penobscot to Sagadahock this
Coast is all Mountainous and Isles OF
huge Rocks, but overgrOwn with all
sorts Of good woodes for building
houses, boats, banks or shippes: with
an incredible abundance Of most sorts
of fish, much fowle and sundry sorts
of good fruites for mans use
The Salvages compare their store IN
the Sea to the haires Of their headS'
and surely there are an tncredlole
abundance upon this Coast.
The most Northern part 1 was at was
the Bay of Penobscot, which is East
and West, North and South, more than
ten leagues"
The northeastern half of the Maine
coast was put on the map by CHAM
plain. Ten years before Smiths VoV-
age he had visited Nova Scotia, dls-
covered and named the st. John river,
and cruised as far south as the mouth
of the Penobscot, which he, too, en-
tered.

Various Modes Of Greeting.

Savages rarely osculate. The salu-
tations Of the Mongols, Malays, Poly
nesians, the Eskimos and Laplanders
consist chiefly Of smelling each other
and rubbing noses; while in Tibet, In
stead of greeting by an adhesive touch,
the mode Of salutation consists of ex-
tending the tongue, but this Is done
simply because the custom OF the
country does not permit of any phys
ical contact. North American Indians
do not kiss excepting in the presence
of death, when they profusely fondle
and kiss the feet of their beloved de-
parted ones. The native Australian
and Fiji islanders. salute with a hug
like bear. The Celtic race is not
especially demonstrative and rarely
kiss In public unless it Is in greeting
after a long absence, then men very
rarely kiss each other and the women
are not over lavish with their mani.
festations of devotion.

New York.-The trail Of Bolshevik
agitators preaching the revolutionary
doctrines Of Lenine and Trotsky has
been traced across the central part OF
New York state by the operatives OF
the Lusk legislative committee. THESE
men have found conditions so alarm
ing that the committee considers 1t I'M
perative they visit the great manufac-
turing cities Of the Mohawk valley and
take testimony as to radical activities.
Evidence has been obtained that prop
uganda being disseminated in that Sec
ton comes from New York. Criminal
prosecution will be brought against
those who preach the overthrow Of the
government by force.
The committee intends to sit In
Schenectady, Utica, Syracuse, Roches-
ter and Buffalo, which seem to be dan
ger points. According to the commit
tee, highly paid propagandists and lee
turers have been operating among for
eign laborers in these cities for months
in efforts to cause unrest, arouse ha-
tired for employers and convince the
foreigners that the soviet form of gov
eminent is most desirable.
Evidence concerning the activities
of agents Of BolShevism in Science
tady and Utica was gathered by ex-
perts employed by Senator Lusk. Most
of the operations of the radicals In
those cities were confined to the for
eign born workers. /. w. w. agitatorS,
who know the ground we'll, helped in
the work, however. Several papers
from the radical underground press
advocating the immediate overthrow
of the government and the formation
of soviets have appeared.
Buffalo seems to be the most dan
gerous point outside New York to the
investigators. That city Is being used
by the Reds as sort of Canadian
American exchange. Well known an
archiSts from all parts Of the country
have been there lately, working in har-
mony with the Bolsheviki agitators.
1t was there the Bolsheviki plotted the
Winnipeg labor troubles. Canadian l.
W. WIS frequently cross the border to
aid in starting strikes and labor dis
putes. According to the information
of the committee, agitatOrS from Buff
falo were responsible for the recent
labor disturbances in Toronto. 1t Is
planned to take testimony for about q
week in Buffalo.
1t was intimated that the legislative
investigators contemplate asking the
cooperation of other states in crush
ing the Bolshevik. menace. Since their
committee has been gathering evil
dence, valuable information concern
ing the activities Of the radicals In
neighborlng states, it is thought ad-
visable by the legislators to acquaint
the state authorities with the exist
Ing conditions.

pendulum of fashion in the opposite
direction by being very scanty. The
cuffs are unusually narrow; in fact,
they are little more than facings. TO
make this overcoat warmer as well as
smarter tits given red cloth lining.
Linen of coarse weave Is used to
make surplice waistcoats for still
other topcoats. Marine blue Is the
color most often chosen, and leather
collar and cuff in the same hue Is add
ed. One new motor coat that / saw
was of black and white plaided worst
ed. 1t was a loose, baggy affair with
raglan sleeves, and tan leather faced
the collar and cuffs. Another good
looking one was Of champagne-col-
ored camel's hair cloth-the real
camePs hair cloth which is so difficult
to procure now. The coat was swung
from a deep yoke, and the collar,
which in this instance was Of the
cloth, rumpled up around the ears In
becoming folds. Champagne-colored
silk with broad purple stripe made a
striking lining.
Humble Straw Makes It's Debut.
There ~isSa> French coat that has
gone so far ITO have straw collar.
Collars and cuffs of other coats are
adorned with landings of tightly In
terlaced straw. This idea OF trimming
clothes with straw is rampant. The
other day / saw some tailored sport
shirts Of white linen, and under the
tucks In the front was set finely
fiuted trimming of brown linen woven
so as to appear like straw. A prim
Eton collar and turned-back cuffs were
bordered to match.
Why faille silk should be selected
as a material from which to evolve
sport clothes is a bit difficult to say,
especially when there are so many
beautiful silks of rough weave that
are made for nothing but this type OF
dress. However, the fact remains
that faille and Angora have formed an
alliance to make some sport clothes
so good looking that we scarcely dare
question their practlcability. One suit
that I saw was Of buff-colored faiile
and had bands Of brushed Angora
down either side of the skirt, from
waisthand to hem. The AngOra,
which was light brown in color, encir.
cled the bottom of the short box coat
and formed scarf, collar just like the
scarfs we have worn on our sweaters,
These loose, scarf-like collars are
much used.
>Dove-g,ay silk made another suit
that had smoke-colored Angora as Its
trimming Brick red silk was chosen
for a cape. A straight strip Of the
faille was taken and gathered to q
band of gray Angora. Any one who
can use a needle could easily make
such a wrap-and it was so pretty
and effective! The more servieeable
red velours might be substituted for
silk, OF turquoise blue cloth with
white Angora would be effective.
Martial ct Armand Of Paris have
made a cape for country wear Of tur-
uuoise blue duvetyn. 1t Is rather a
scanty cape that sweeps gracefully
around it's slender wearer. Deep rose
satin lines it, and the openings that
serve as armholes are cut in a way to
reveal the rosy lining and make
pleasing color contrast. These arm
holes are banded with ever so many
tiers of narrow blue braid.

Speed In the Air.

BY merely modifying wing curva-
ture, airplanes of to-day could be made
to fly at a speed Of $50 miles an hour,
according to British captain who Is
considered an aeronautical authority.
The obstacle that this would present,
however, would be minimum land.
ing speed Of about 100 miles an hour.
Greater speed in the air is much to
be desired, but no pilot Is particularly
anxious to bring his machine to earth
ut a rate such as that indicated.

APPEAL MADE FOR
ARMENIAN WOMEN
IN TURKISH HAREMS

TIFLIS, Armenia, Sept. 15-via.
Paris, Oct. 2-(Associated Press)-
Turkish Armenian refugees whose
daughters were saved from death for
a life of slavery in Turkish harems,
have appealed to the American Red
Cross for aid in obtaining their free
dom. 1t is estimated by officials of
the Armenian government that 10000
girls are thus held in slavery. An ex.
ecutive committee to arrange plans
for their liberation has been named
and will start work at once.
These girls, daughters of refugees
from the Van and Bitlis regions, dis.
appeared during the massacres of
1918. Nothing was heard of them for
months and it was believed they had
been slain by the Turks.
Recently pitiful appeals for liberia
ton have been coming from them
from the Turkish harems of Anatolia
and European Turkey. Most of the
girls declare hat they have not chang
ed their religion.
Colonel Haskell, High Commission
er of the Allies to Armenia, has been
appealed to for military aid. No
definite answer has yet been given but
he is hopeful of being able to offer a
show of force as a background for
diplomatic negotiations. The Ameri-
can Red Cross has been asked for
financial backing necessary for the
work of liberating the women.

Belgium Rapidly
Recovering From
Effects OF War

BRUSSELS, Oct. 4-(By The Asso-
ciated Press)-A1l Belgium is return
ing to work and the country is re-
covering rapidly from the war.
In Brussels factories which were
damaged during the German occupa-
ton are being fitted with machienry,
and some of them already are turning
out their accustomed products to with
in a few percent of the pre-war capa-
city.
Production Of sugar exceeds the pre-
war tonnage. Glass factories are re-
opening. In the iron and steel mills
many plants have resumed operations,
particularly in the Liege district
where some of the mills were COM
pletely demolished and others so bad
ly damaged that entire blast furnaces
had to be rebuilt. Within a year, il
is believed, the most important of
these plants will be operating to
capacity.
The cotton trade Of Client also has
resumed, and steamers loaded with
American cotton are arriving almost
daily. During the German occupation
all copper fittings were removed from
the machines in the spinning factories
and some of these have o yet been
replaced.
The linen industry also has taken
on new life, and additional workers
are being employed every week. The
export trade in linen is growing just
as rapidly as the factories can turn
out the finished product.
1t is in the country districts, how
ever, where one sees the Belgian at
his best. In the vast garden country
which stretches from Brussels to the
sea scarcely a square foot of ground
is left uncultivated, so anxious are the
people to produce their W food, and
they are working from early morn I'M
til late at night to attain that end.
Apparently there is no scarcity of
food in Belgium. 1t is costly in
towns and cities, but in the country
the people have now gathered their
first harvest since the war, and are
in need of nothing. Even butter is
being served in the hotels, and in
every house there is no longer the
fear of starvation which for so many
years made life a burden. Many per
sons are convinced that this time next
year will see the country very well on
the way to recovery.

Items Must Wait.

Provision is to be made for the La
haina wharf at Mala, and for the re-
building of the lao valley road in the
next sale of territorial bonds which
will probably take place next January.
Governor Mccarthy has outlined his
plans for the next flotation and is
quoted by the Honolulu papers as be-
ing keenly alive to the Importance of
the several Maui projects. The APP
preparation from the loan fund for the
Mala wharf is 100000. This is in
addition to the $4,000 from the general
fund for preliminary surveys which
have already been completed. 1t is
understood that the plans for the
wharf are now being prepared by the
public works department, and unless
subjected to unwarranted delay should
be ready by the time the money for
construction is available.
