Bucharest, Oct. 10.-The tubercu-
Rosis death rate in the Balkans is the
Zhighest in the world, asserts the
medical station of the American
Red Cross headquarters here. This
is based on reports from the Red
Cross in Rumania, Serbia, Albania
and Montenegro.
The distressing factor is that the
countries are almost wholly without
sanitoriums for the treatment of tu-
zberculosis. Red Cross relief is tenn
porary and it is considered beyond
=its province to found sanitoriums on
the scale that would be needed.

Another question will be whether

IS expected. according to Secretary

calling of an international Socialist

would exclude the Majority Socialists

work and the naming of committees,

SOCIALISTS TO
MEET TODAY
Big Convention In Chicago
To Prepare For Coming
Campaign

Chicago, Ill, Sept. Two hund-
red delegates representing the Ameri-
can Socialists assembled here to-
day in national convention to. or
ganize for the coming campaigns and
draft a national party platform.
This latter undertaking promises to
be especially difficult as since the last
national convention of the party and
during the war the regular organ
cation has been torn by schism and
internal dissension and inability to
agree on party principles, while the
entire membership in some states has
been suspended and charters revoked.
In the cases of Michigan and Massa-
chusettes, however. it is said applica-
tons for reinstatement have been re-
ceived. new charters issued, m the
members are returning to the party
fold, but in Ohio, where the charter
also was revoked, the leaders now arc
reorganizing their forces and the char
ter has not been asked as yet.
In addition to the Ohio loss, seven
foreign language declarations of the
party have broken with the old or
sanitation and these. it was said at
the, party headquarters here. still are
out. The declarations are the Russian.
Ukrainian, Lithuanian, South Slavic,
Hungarian, Lettish and Polish and are
to represent a membership Of around
$4,000 Socialists.
None Of these revolts, however, will
affect materially the membership Of
the convention, it is claimed. as the
delegates are elected on a basis Of the
membership of local organizations and
the detection of one would merely add
to the representation from another.
Latest discord is said to have grown
out of a referendum election of a
national committee, in which ballot
ing the present party administration
alleges fraud while the cleft wing
and Communist" groups charge I'M
fair counting. A special committee
Of Is, of which William j. Brandt of
st. Louis is chairman, was appoint
ed to investigate charges of fraud
made by Adolph Gernler, national
secretary. and will report to the con-
vention that opens tomorrow.

Canada's wonderful possibilities Of

Colonel Dennis is one. of the trans

DAN CUPID WINS LOVE MATCH
WITH NORWEGIAN TENNIS STAR
By n. +. Brown.

How about making Dan Cupid No.
1 hen ranking the ONE tennis
players this season?
Molla Bjurstedt, can testify as to
the merits of the little fellows play.
Molla came to this country "a few
years ago from Norway and took the
tennis world by storm. Some idea
ton is shown by the fact that in 1915
she" won both the national outdoor
and indoor titles and half a dozen
other lesser honors and was placed
first in the list of the best ten women
net stars. ~
She has won a score of titles since
then and still is a formidable con-
testant in the big Journeys of the
country.
And while she is holding her own
with the best stars the country pro-
duces along comes Dan Cupid, who
beats her in a love set.
According to word from the east,
Miss Bjurstedt is engaged to marry
Franklyn Mallory, New York repre-
sentative of a Philadelphia banking
Arm.
The announcement comes as a sur
prise to tennis fans, outside Of Miss
Mollas cIosest TRENDS perhaps. For
ever since. she arrived in this country
she has Stunned a match with Dan
although several aspirants have knelt
on the tennis court to plead their
cause.
Whether Miss Bjurstedt plans to
give up tennis after her marriage
isn't known, but Is is improbable
that she will. Mrs. Sutton-Bundy

famous women tennis stars did not

THE introduction of irrigation in
the southern portion of Alberta and
the western portion of Saskatchewan,
and the proper utilization of the wa
ter supply provided by our rivers, has
proved that vast areas which, at times,
are lacking sufficient rainfall for sue
cessful agriculture, can be made the
most productive and intensively Gull
tivated areas in the west. In this
great irrigation work, the Canadian
Pacific railway has already expended
$~15,000,000 but the extension Of this
most ancient of all systems of perma-
nine agriculture to the vast areas that
can be reclaimed is a work of national
importance and one which, in the
near future, must engage the atten-
ton of both our dominion and prov
inctal governmental.

this cast area, it is estimated 1885,
100000 acres are available for imme-
date settlement and cultivation. At
present not more than 10000, 900
acres are occupied and cultivated,
leaving the enormous area of 1885,
100000 acres of good land available
for further extension of agricultural
activities.
THE total population of the four
western provinces does not exceed g.
100000 and when it is realized that
this small population averages only
1.86 people per square mile, one car
get some. conception Of the enormous
value of the agricultural output of
the country when the remaining 1885,
00O,00 acres are brought under Gull
tivation.
For comparison. It may be noted
that. were the western provinces oc-
cupied OF the same basis Of distribu-
ton per square mile as the small
province of Prince Edward Island,
they would have a population today of
2 0 700, 900 people.
"Our greatest problem in western
Canada in Connection with the devel-
opment of our natural resources, is
that Of securing settlers Of the right
kind to take up and cultivate the vast
~unoccupied acreage which only awaits
the intelligent effort Of the -agricul-
turists to produce vast quantities Of
food.
The suitability Of the four western
provinces for, agriculture, horticulture
and animal industry has been definite
ly proved by prizes won in competi-
ton with all other countries Of the
world and by the grain production in
the occupied areas.
cit is within my recollection that
these western provinces were looked
upon and characterized as part OF the
Great American Desert unsuited for
occupation or the growth of grain and
destined to be the home of wandering
bands of cattle as successors tt the
buffalo. This idea was quickly dis
PEELED by the pioneers who undertook
to cultivate the soil and by the won

A "No" That Made Friend.

A business man went to two bank
ers. He wished to borrow $4,000 from
one and $1,000 from the other. Ly-
man Arson tells the story in the Oc-
tober issue of System, the Magazine
of Business: The first banker loaned
him $4,000, but was so unpleasant
and condescending about it that the
business man went back to his office
with the thought, 'I'll never have any
more dealings with that bank as long
as I live" The second banker refused
the loan of $1,000, but he did it so
graciously and with so clear an ex-
position Of his reasons, that the busi-
ness man left as a booster for the
bank, and said to himself, "I'm going
to put my affairs in such shape that
there will be no earthly reason why
this man should not loan to me.

second banker had learned the art of
