OPPRESSION of Russians
BY Other Races Charged
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Sept II. - Com
planning of alleged suppression and
persecution of the Russian race in Ga
licia and Bukowina, by Poles, Mag
vars and Austrians, a committee rep
resenting the Carpathe-Russian ma
tionality at Paris, has addressed
petition to President Wilson and con-
gress in which they demand union OF
their people with greater Russia.
Numerous instances are cited OF op-
preston of Russian peasants because
of race and religion by members of the
dominant races. 1t is asserted that
the Red Russians have suffered perse'
cution for six hundred years as first
one nationality and then another gain
ed the ascendancy over them and that
they are now threatened with extlnc'
ton unless permitted by the peace
conference to unite with their CO. ma
tionals on the farther side OF the
Carpathians.

TALE OF OIL IS
more MARVELLOUS
THAN FAIRY STORY
(KansaS City starr

More marvellous than anything in
the Arabian Nights entertainment.
more amazing than the discovery of
gold in California or Alaska, or of dia-
monds in Africa, is the history of pc
troleum in the United States during
the last ten years. a book has just
been published entitled "Oil' by Reid
Savers McBeth, which contains the
salient features of this amazing his
tory. In it l note the following facts:
The first oil well in America was
drilled in 1859 only sixty years ago.
The tremendous expansion of the oil
business has taken place within the
last ten years.
The use Of oil as a source Of pow err
is due to the internal com bustion en-
CINE. which is the heart of the auto
mobile, the airplane, the farm tractor,
the motor boat, the submarine, and
other varieties of the gas engine.
Petroleum has built the world s
greatest individual fortune-that Of
John D. Rockefeller.
1t has made hundreds of other for
tunes, and has probably made more
people rich over night than any other
one thing.
Petroleum has probably been the

| The United States supplies approx
mately two-thirds of the petroleum Of

| Forty-two per cent. Of this country s
output comes from what is called the
mid-continent field embracing parts OF
! the states of Kansas, Oklahoma, Louis
! lana and Texas.
! The Usage Indians of Oklahoma
are considered the wealthiest people
world. The income in 1918 from oil
royalties was approximately $4,000 fol
each individual. These Indians are
among the largest buyers of motor

OF defense, suppressing public and
private clubs is strictly enforced.
The provisions Of this long expect

pseudo clubs under camouflaged
titles. The city is now honeycombed
by such public and private resorts,
fully three hundred fashionable apart

by such establishments. The order
applies only to the military district OF
Greater Berlin. In an effort to stop
the widespread prevalence of gamb

of statements alleged to have been
made by him in his testimony before
the Wayne county grand jury. in the
investigation of the Malleable Cast

Davis, who is not moulder. nor
employed at foundries where the
strike was declared, is said to have
been implicated in the rioting. but it
Is alleged that he tried to prove an
alibi.
Although most of the evidence on
the riot has been presented. the final

not be made until Monday, according
to Freeman.
The grand jury was to adjourn Fri.
day evening until Monday, when its

ments it may make, will be given to
the court.

HARRY RAY POST
TO GET CHARTER;
IN MEMBER DRIVE

Efforts will be made by Harry Ray
Post No. 81, American Legion, to in
crease the membership Of the local
post to at least 600 members, in the
nation wide membership drive for the
legion next week, said Frank Strayer,
president.
Word was received Friday, that
Harry Ray post is the sixtyseventh in
the state to be granted a charter, and
the official quota for the post, which
now includes the entire country, will
probably be received before the drive
opens.
Although the greatest concerted eff
fort for mem bership will be made dur
ing the national campaign week, local
officers intend to push the campaign
until every ex-service man in the
country is a member either Of this
post, or of some other.
Application Blanks Issued
Application blanks for mem bership
in the legion have been placed in all
downtown Gigar stores, at the Palla
dunn office, and in the offices Of the
post officials, where they may be OBJ
tanned upon request.
Membership fees in the local branch
of the legion will be 81, which includes
dues for six months. or the remainder
Of the current fiscal year.
At present Harry Ray post is the
only branch Of the legion in Wayne
county, but efforts are being made
to organize local posts in the western
part of the county, at Cambridge City
and Hagerstown, and probably IL

SHARE PROFITS,
CURE INDUSTRIAL
iLLS--PERKINS
Capital and Labor to be Part
ners in Problems of Future,
Says Magnate.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-Proht-shar-
ing on a frank and fair basis was de-
clared to be the only solution Of the
delivered at the annual meeting of the
National Civic Federation here Thurs
day. by George w. Perkins.
Mr.. Perkins said he was convinced
that labor was entirely willing that
capital should have its fair reward
and proper protection" but that there
were too many instances in which
capital had demanded Improper pro-
lection and had taken exorbitant
reward"
At the same time Mr.. Perkins de.
nounced the bonus systems as doing
more harm than good and as stirring
up trouble rather than alleviating it..
The giving Of bonuses. he claimed
caused employees to feel that the en-
ployers were making vast sums of
money out of which sop was thrown
to them to bride them into feeling
kindly disposed or to ward off a de-
mand for a general Increase in wages.
posed a definite detailed scheme of
profit-sharing which he said had been
adopted by some companies with
which he was connected, and had
proved most successful. He described
the plan as follows:
Fair Returns.
First: Every business has. first Of
all. to earn operating expenses, de-
probation, and fair returns on honest
capitalization.
Second: 1 believe that every bust
ness should consider that the compen-
eation paid employees is for the pur-
pose of earning sum of money suf-
fcient to pay the aforementioned
items.
Third believe that any profits
over and above such sum should, on
some percentage basis, be divided be-
tween the capital used in the business
and the employees engaged in the bust
ness.
Fourth: I believe that in neither
case should these profits be immedi-
ately withdrawn from the business;
that they should be left in the bust
ness for reasonable length Of time,
strength and safety; that, in the case
of capital, its share of these profits
should be carried to surplus; that, in
the case of employees, these profits
should be distributed to them in some
form of security representing an in
terest in the business, and that each
employe should be required to hold
such security for a reasonable length
of time, say three to five years.
Fifth: I believe that the en-
ployes' share of these profits should
be allotted to them as nearly as pos.
eible on the basis of the compensation
they receive. Up to date, this has
proved to be the best method

MAYORS PATOOT|E,
IS CAUSE OF RIOT
(San Francisco Bulletin)

Notice-The singing of songs
publicly in which persons in the
audience are ridiculed or made to
feel embarrassed is hereby pro-
hibited in Delhi. Offenders will
be arrested and prosecuted. New
York papers please copy.-Cyrus
Perkins Walker, Mayor.
The foregoing notice appeared in
the Delhi (Cal) Bazoo the other day
and occasioned much comment. The
mayor caused its publication as re-
suit Of an incident that took place at
Hugus Hall not long ago.
1t was during a presentation of a
musical comedy called "Ba-Ba Bum
ble-Bee." Mayor Walker attended
and occupied a seat in the third row
with Mrs. Walker. Toward the end
of the first act a young woman pro-
grammed as Mile. Tootsie McGinnis
came out on the stage and sang song
entitled Hes My Daddy and I'm His
Sweet Patootie." She sang it straight
at the mayor and at one point injected
her victims name. The lines ran
something like this:
He's my Daddy and I'm His Sweet
Patootie
Mayor Walker is sure some cutey.
When Mile. McGinnis finished the
verse she leaned over the footlights
and held her hands out imploringly
at the mayor. At that point a mans
voice coming from the rear of the hall
said:
you got some sweet patootie
mayor"
Mayor Walker, already deeply EN-
barrassed. became Infatuated. He
arose and facing the rear of the hall
, asked:
Who Said II?
who said that?"
There was no response. The show
came to a dead stop.
81 want it definitely understood that
| do not know this singer and, further
more, that she is showing extremely
| bad taste to call me Patootie, or what
ever it was"
The manager of the show appeared
on the stage and apologized to the
mayor.
I'm sorry Mile McGinnis sang tt
you sir" he said, but she tells me she
knew you in New York, having me-
you at party given by jefferson
Mutt, newspaper man"
Sly ola cog! SAID the voice
is Constab BILE Pelee Brown in the AL
dience?" asked the mayor, Infatuated
Right here" replied Brown.
Arrest that man.
The man proved to be Skin PEBBLES
an anti-Walker Democrat. The Office
leaped at him and hght followed, il
which Constable Brown was knocked
down four times, but he subdued hi!
man by slipping him two dollars t.
leave the hall. The mayor and Mrs
Walker then left and the performance
was finished.
| The incident has caused the mayo
to suspect a plot to discredit him il
his race for reelection, but the anti
Walker Democrats say that the chic
executive really knew Mile. McGinni
in New York and they declare h
never went near the Sunday schoo
convention. The whole town is talk
ing.
t. There is much indignation.
