THE WORLD CONE
MAD IN WASTEFUL
EXTRAvACANC CE
---R|OUTOUSNESS
Startling Arrangement Of
the Blindness and Folly
That Has Seized Upon All
Classes.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-The
following address delivered by B. F.
Irvine, the blind editor of the Port
land (Ore.) Journal, before the annual
meeting of the California State Press
Association in San Francisco, Satur-
day, November Is, is sent you at the
request of the California State Press
Associations:
1t is doubtful if America has ever
been confronted with conditions so
precarious. There never was a pys-
chology so extraordinary.
Expenditures are terrific. The peo-
pie are on mad financial spree. Nor
mai business principles are dead.
Thoughts of thrift are forgotten. A
mans hat at $40 has become a COM
monplace. Portland dealers placed
them on sale and the supply was ex-
hausted. The dealers were plunged
into wonderment and eve. They are
now buying hats thai will be sold at
S25 and $40.
Nothing is stable. New York man.
ufacturers and jobbers no longer
quote prices of goods on future de-
livery. They tell you the price now
and say that the price on future or
ders will be controlled by the then
market. Meanwhile, operatives in the
factories demand higher and higher
wages and operators grant them. OPP
orators have found that any price
asked will be paid, and the advanced
wage is granted and added, with in
creased profit to the price at which
the goods go to the retailer. The
public comes along and pays what
ever is asked.
And so the pyramiding goes on.
People were excited during the war.
In many ways they are crazy now.
They never saw so much money spent
before, never saw it spent so lavishly,
never saw it come and go so easily.
All have forgotten that it was gov
eminent money that we have been
spending. 1t was the great sums told
off in billions that fed the shipyards,
the munition factories, the machine

WAR RISK INSUR-
ANCE makes BIG
SHOWING OF SUB
STANT|ALBEHEFITS
Manned and Disabled Sol
diers in Hospitals are Sur
prised by Receiving Large
Checks, With Life Long
Pensions.

The speed and precision with which
the Bureau of War Blsk Insurance is
handling cases calling for the pay
ment of insurance under the total
and permanent disability feature of
the law were emphasized in an un-
expectedly substantial manner to a
group of wounded men who are pa
tients at Walter Reed hospital, dur
ing the course of visit to the bureau
at the invitation of Director R. G.
Cholmeley-Jones.
When the men reached the bureau
in the morning, they were unaware
that their condition warranted pay
ment of insurance on the policies
which they held at the time they
were wounded in France on account
of total and permanent disability. Still
less did they anticipate that within a.
few hours they could be examined by
medical officers, awarded insurance,
and handed checks ranging from
$438.67 to $888.47, covering insurance
due them from the dates of their in -
juries, to take with them when they
returned to the hospital. Yet this
is exactly what happened.
The names of the men and sum-
mary of their cases follow:
Eugene J. Morrill,, private, Com
pany nj, 130th Infantry. Wounded at
Albert, France, July 18, 1918, by q
high explosive shell. Suffered ampu
tation of left leg and loss of left eye,
Private Morrill, carried War Risk In
Eurance policy for $4,000. He was
handed a check for $888.47, and will
receive insurance payment sof $3.50
per month as long as he lives.
Rolla Lee Tibbetts, private, Com
pany E, 47th Infantry. Wounded at
Verdun, France, September 24t 1918,
by a high explosive shell. Suffered
amputation of left leg, wound in left
arm and wounds on nose and face.
Private Tibbetts carried War Risk
Insurance policy for $4,000. He re
ceived a check for $760.92, and will
receive insurance payments of $3.50
per month as long as he lives.

AN EXCELLENT SHOW

1t is seldom that Nogales is given
so rare treat as was afforded yes
terday evening to theater goers who
attended the Lyric Theater and wit
messed the really fine performance
presented by Audra Alden and her
excellent support.
Owing to the illness of one of the
leading performers "The Brat" could
not be produced, so there was sub
stituted "Going Straight" most ex-
cellent drama, that was rendered in a
way that could not be excelled The
play will be put upon the boards this
evening, and there is no doubt that it
will be greeted with crowded
house.

81 understand that the charge Of
false declaration laid against me is
based upon my denial of the testi-
mony of poems that I was seen on
my ranch accompanied by the bandit
leaders during the period of my alb
duction. l have evidence to disprove
my presence there, but have not been
given opportunity to present it in
court. Some of the poems testifying
that they had seen me as stated after
ward that they gave their testimony
that way through fear.
"The charge of collusion with the
bandits are simply cooked up fabrica-
tions-allegations which are childish,
absurd, and without foundation.
There is no explanation for them on
basis of law"
Mr.. Jenkins seemed quite comfort
ably located, and he had no COM
plant to make of the way he has
been treated by Mexican officials. His
wife sees him daily and is permitted
to take him hot meals from his home.

which he is entitled on account of his
past services to his country, is urged
to communicate with the local home
service committee. The home service
worker is looking for him and any
citizen who knows that such case
exists is urged to point It out to the

Take one undernourished child

(By S. I. Freed)

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
Ell PASO, Tex, Dec. 1.-Interven-
ton appears far off, although newt
able ultimately.
According to authorities here,
while the jenkins and Wallace cases
have rendered the diplomatic situation
tense American military men here,
rabid interventionists, have admitted
that for the first time since the
Pershing expedition after Villa, the
American army is not prepared for
the job in Mexico.
Except for ordnance, of which
there is enough along the border to
supply five divisions, the American
army is unprepared. There are not
over 5000 men at Fort Bliss. Regular
cavalry companies are cut. down to
fi3ty-five men, compared to full COM
plement of 100. Infantry units and
other branches have bbeen similarly
skeletonized by rehabilitation since
the armistice ended the world war.
Warehouses along and near the bor-
der are bursting with munitions and
enough railroad supplies are within
easy reach to girdle Mexico. Lack of
personnel could be overcome by call
Cor volunteers for border service,
which, army men say, would be taken
as meaning Intervention. Regular
army officers do not expect such a
call, although the Texas militia is be-
ing recruited to full strength.
Interest here mas turned from the
frequently disappointing Intervention
scare to the forthcoming report of
Senator Fall and his committee, who
have been investigating the Mexican
situation.
Fall left Ell Paso recently, primed
to burst the Mexican situation wide

gland operation, made famous by ex-
periments at San Quentin prison, of
fers new lease of life to genius, de-
clared DR.. Victor G. Vecki, well known
surgeon, in an address today before
the Western Arts Association.
DR.. Vecki, who has been associated
with San Quentin surgeons in their
gland operations, spoke on the subject
"The effect of interstitial gland tran,
plantation on genius"
Broken down and worn out mon
genius can be rejuvenated, he said,
and their genius will be restored to
vigor. He foresaw great things for
the gland operation. Men like Pader-
ewski, who are ageing, he said, could
be restored to their former vigor.

DUST BOXES FOR HENS.

Chickens never wash, as many other birds DO,
but cleanse themselves Of insects by wallowing
in soil. Where board or cement floors are used,
some means of busting should be provided dur
ing the winter months. For flock OF 5O to %
fowls a dust box by feet or by feet will
be found large enough in most instances, and
should be placed where it can be reached by
sunlight during as much of the day as possible.
Fine light, dry dust is the best, but sandy loam
is good. Road Gust is recommended by many,
but it is apt to be filthy. Coal or wood ashes
may be mixed with the soil If desired.
