SCOUTS AVOID oIL-skIN BAGS

About the worst kind of sleeping
bag a scout can choose, especially In
cold weather, Is one made of rubber or
0il-skins.
Major David A. Abercrombie tells or
a trip through the North in which one
of Stefansson's companions used bags
made of oil-skin material. When he
awoke in the morning ~ found that
the moisture from his body had ac-
.cumulated on the inside of the oil-skin
and had frozen stiff.
And what Is more. they couldn't ger
the frost out of the thing for the rest
of the journey An extreme case 10
be sure, but one that points warning.

COST OF VARIOUS HIGHWAYS
Macadam Road 10 Most Expensive, But
When Built 10 Satisfactory and
Permanent.

Dirt roads are ordinarily surfaced
with sand. mixed with clay or with
gravel, or brick, or crushed stone, con-
crete or other like material. The grav-
ell road will cost from $500 to $500
a mile-the difference in cost depend
ing upon the accessibility of gravel.
The macadamized road costs from ST.
900 to $4,000 per mile. 1t is the most
expensive, but when well built Is both
satisfactory and permanent.

Bo- SCOUT FARM WORKERS,

The days toll done;
A song upon the lips of us
To speed the setting sun;
And peace within our laughing hearts
And pride to know that we
Still carry on like true scouts

Our share and more in wartime),
In time of Victory.
Liberty bond and Victory bond,
We did not fail;
And love of country In our hearts
Shall never die nor pale;
And never call but that we heed
For what the gain II we
Should mar the record that we hold
eve did our share In wartime
Our share and more in wartime),
And fail the Victory?

BOY SCOUTS AND BOMBS

A circular printed in red and
threatening him with determination"
for his part in the boy scout MEM
bership drive was received by Gavin
McNab, prominent attorney of San
Francisco.
Others were said to have been re-
ceived by Associate Justice w. w.
Morrow of the United States circuit
court, and Frank Sumers, an attor-
ney, who also were identified with the
campaign.
The circular accused McNab of re-
cruiting the boys as future soldiers
"to protect the flag Haunting finan-
ciers."
One of the most effective ways to
fight bolshevism and anarchism in
this country is the suggestion: "Boost
the boy scout movement" Everybody
taught the boys of this organization,
along with a general system of physi-
cal, mental and moral development.
One seldom hears of boy scout going
wrong and getting into trouble with
the law. 1t may also be said no one
ever hears of scout who is not a
patriot.
Boys who belong TO the scouts do
not grow up to flaunt red flags and
plant bombs. And if they have any
influence at home, their fathers and
big brothers imbibe something of their
4.
Clearly enough, if all American boys
were scouts, there would be mighty
few adult reds to make trouble.

Cive a Thought
To Eighth Avenue
E.1GHTH Avenue, between Twenty

E1GHTH Avenue, between Twenty
third Street and Forty-second
street, is "giving itself a thought
many, in fact. Police protection on the
avenue is adequate, it's residents agree,
the street is we'll paved and amply
wide enough for the many traffic needs
Of the busy avenue. Neither is any
complaint made against the way the
white wings" are caring for Eighth
Avenue.
Building Improvement, especially
apartment buildings, is the streets
greatest need. according to real estate
men, storekeeper and policeman alike.
The number of low, two-story, ram
shackle buildings on this stretch of
Eighth Avenue is surprising. Not
wlthstanding the many applications for
apartments which are being made,
building operators, in the face of the
high cost of materials, have not the
courage to undertake the necessary i'm
provements. Old residents of the ave-
nue. feel that if new apartment houses
are put up. the street will regain its
former position as one of the most i'm
portant in the city.

Robbers Almost Steal
Jewel Safe; Rope Breaks
Crash of Strong Box, as 1t Hits
Sidewalk, Acts as Burg
lar Alarm

Robbers made their way over the
difficult terrain of three back yards
Sunday night and entered the home of
Mrs. C. Van Rensselaer, Cogswell, IL
East Twelfth Street. They almost sue
ceeded in getting away with the safe,
which contained $4,000 worth of jew
els. Tying it with ropes they began
to lower it from a window, but the
rope broke under the strain and the
safe crashed to the sidewalk That
brought out the neighbors and the
police. The burglars left hurriedly,
taking only $1,000 worth of loose
jewelry.
Mr.. Cogswell, who is secretary and
treasurer Of the United States Cobalt
Company at 35 Wall Street, was warned
by the police not to let any information
regarding the robbery become public,
since that would serve to give notice
to other burglars that the neighbor-
hood was "easy." Reporters convinced
the Cogswells that publication might
put their neighbors on guard. The next
night, before the story was printed,
burglars took $4,000 from the safe of
the New York Clothing Cutters Union
at "a West Twelfth Street, just few
doors away.

425 Arrests in
Traffic Crusade
''5-a-Day'' Records Are
Broken; 1900 Hailed
to Court This Year

Thanks to the "traAic crusade" STAGED
oy Commissioner Enright and his CO.
norts, the number of cases arraigned in
the Traffic Court this year will over
whelm all previous records. With June
not yet passed, 1900 offenders have
been arraigned. During the entire yea,
OF 1918 there were only $4,000.
Yesterdays haul of traffic ordinance
v1olators smashed any previous davis
record. There were 425 cases for Mag
lstrate House to dispose of, against 37e
for the former high mark. The nature
of many of the cases brought in BY
earnest five day" patrolmen moved
Magistrate House to wrath early in
the proceedings.
II have disposed of thirty cases
now" he said, "and I fail to see in
one Of the many relation between
safety of the pedestrian and the motor
ist. 1 am making a careful record of
every case. 1t may be of some value
in the near future. In not one Of them
so far has the officer testified that
there were any other vehicles endan-
gered, pedestrians crossing the street,
or the possibility of a collision"
Further indication of the magis-
trate's displeasure was forthcoming
when, soon after entering the jammed
courtroom, he commanded the 200
patrolmen there assembled with their
arrests to stand up and let the pris-
oners sit down. This order was obeyed
with considerable grumbling.

Apartment Owner
Said to Have Made
200 Per Cent Profit
Case Cited in Rent Probe
Where Woman Is Alleged
TO Have Taken $4,000 Net
on an Equity of $4,000

The Mayors Committee on Rent
Prohteering is investigating a case ir
Bay Ridge in which rentals in the
apartment house at 408 Seventy-sev
enth Street, Brooklyn, are declared BY
tenants to have been increased since
last September from $32 to $50 with E
lease and $65 without one Following g
meeting of the tenants on the roof Of
the apartment house, they appointed 6
committee to call upon Chairman
Hirsch.
On June 6, last year, the apartment
house was sold to Mrs. Hazel R. Dun
KUN, and the increase of the rents tc
$50 and $65 followed on July /, thus
making the increase in some cases 81
per cent and in others as high as 1Oa
per cent, according to the nature of the
lease.
Commenting upon the case yesterday,
Captain Goldsmith, special aid to
Chairman Hirsch, said that investiga-
ton by the committee had revealed
that Mrs. Dunkum bought the house
from the Slickerman Realty Company
through Frank A. Sever & Co. as
agents, who, to close the sale, used
the argument that they would raise
the lental $40 month. The investi-
cation, Captain Goldsmith said, also
revealed the following facts:
The mortgages on the apartment
house amount to s47,5o0. The house
is valued for purposes of assess.
ment at $4,000, which leaves the
owner an equity of about $4,000. With
the increased rentals the income from
the house would amount to $11 900
minus running expenses and interest
on mortgages, which total about IS 600
thus leaving a net profit of $4,000 on
an equity Of $4,000.

by the Mexicun Rebels

Ell PASO, Tex, June 17.-Every bor-
der city, town and hamlet along the
Rio Grande in this district is being
garrlsoned by detachments of Aneri-
can troops under General Erwin. to
prevent the possibility of Villa raid
across the border, in retaliation for
the American punitive expedition
against Villas forces in Mexico.
There will be no wholesale shooting
up OF American towns across the bor-
der from Mexico" General De Rosey

headquarters.
There was no idea of aiding the
Carranza soldiers in Juarez, in General
Erwln's mind, when he ordered the ex-
petition" General Cabell continued.
General Erwin was not concerned in
the outcome of the fighting in Mexico.
DE determined, to the best of his
ability, that shots from the Villistas
were being fred into FL Paso. He sent
ELS troops over and dispersed the Viii
hstas.
General Erwin handled the situation

it well.

A "Violation,' -
Says Mexico
Carranza's Ambassador to
Washington Sends Note
to State Department;
Hopes for SSAdjustment''
No Reply To Be Made
Statement by Aguilar Not
Regarded as a Protest,
Officials in Capital Say

WASHINGTON, June General
Csndido Aguilar, President Carranza's
confidential ambassador to the United
States, issued to the press to-day a
formal statement that "the govern
ment and people OF Mexico consider
ss q violation Of Mexican sovereignty
the crossing of United States soldiers
into Mexican territory" and express
ing the hope chat the situation Gre
ated by the latest occurrences In
Juarez will be satisfactorily adjusted
between the two countries"
The statement follows:
"The Mexican government has not
asked, nor will it ask, the aid of
American troops to fight Villa or any
other bandit. General Francisco
Gonzales did not ask, either, the as
sistance of the United States soldiers
who entered Ciudad Juarez.
@The government and people of
Mexico consider as a violation of
Mexican sovereignty the crossing of
United States soldiers into Mexican
territory. It is hoped that the stu
alton created by the latest occur
rences in Juarez will be satisfactory
ly adjusted between the two count
ries-
president Carranza's government
is strongly endeavoring to put an end
as soon as possible, to the activities
Of the Mexican rebels and to guar
sntee the lives and properties of for
eigners and Mexicans residing in
Mexico"
A copy of General Aguilar's state
ment was sent to the State Depart
ment, but officials there said they did
not regard it in the nature of for
NAL protest, and that no reply would
be made. They added that no other
communication has been received from
the Mexican government regarding the
entry of American forces into Mexico
to disperse Villistas who fred into
Ell Paso, Tex.
After the American troops crossed
the International sborder, General
Agular and DR.. Rojo, the Mexican
charge, were invited to the State De-
partment by acting Secretary Phillips,
who explained why the American forces
entered Mexico, and gave assurances
that they would be withdrawn immedi-
ately after their object had been at
tained. The Mexican representatives
appeared to be satisfied with the ex-
planation, and in the light of this it
was assumed General Aguilar had sent
his statement to the State Department t
merely to keep the record straight.
In this connection it was learned au-
-thoritatively to-day that President Car
ranza never had assented to the agree
ment proposing htat where bandit
bands committed depredations in either
country the armed forces Of that coun-
try could follow "a hot trail" across
the International line.
