CROWDER LIKELY
TOL0SE lob FEB. IS

Mai Gen. Enoch Crowder, Amer
ica's draft leader, will be out of the
service February Is unless renomi-
mated and confirmed as judge advo-
cate general before that time, ac-
cording to the legal Interpretation OF
prominent authority. This inter
pretation is understood also TO be
Crowder's own view as to his status.
According to this Interpretation,
Crowder would not only be out Of the
Judge advocate post, but also would
be out Of the army.
Thus far his denomination has not
been presented.
Relations between Crowder and
Chief OF staff March are known to
have been none too pleasant for a
long time back, even though March
included CTowder as one Of the D. S.
VI. Wearers.
L is known that March sought TO
send CrOwder overseas in connection
with the exchange OF prisoners.
Crowder declined the appointment,
which was far below the honor Of the
provost marshal position; and March
then withdrew the suggegt' '3::.
At the time this was generally re-
Garded in military circles as an ef-
fort 10 "sidetrack" CToWder.

lob SERVICE FLAG
.FAVOREDBY WILSON

Il am heartily in favor Of a serv-
ice flag which will. show the patriot
ism of the employer by indicating
the number of. soldiers and sailors
put back into the positions they left
for military service. SUCH hag
should have a place of'honor in every
store. shop, and factory, side by side
with the original war service flag. 1t
will carry, not only TO the men them
selves, but to their friends, and to
the public at large, the resssuring
message, We have kept faith with
the men who entered the countTy's
service
This statement was made by VIII
liam &. Wilson, Secretary Of Labor
to Roger w. Babson, chief of the
information and education service.
The Secretary of Labor states that
although the place the soldier or
sailor has occupied may have been
filled by a better worker than he,
the obligation still exists on the part
Of the employer to reinstate the man
WHO has been fighting for his country.
"You may be quite sure" said Sec
retary Wilson, that one Of those
flags will float from the Department
Of Labor"

.SEESPOLITICS IN DAP
EXCLUSION PROTEST

Japan's demand for removal of. all
exclusion laws against her citizens
need cause no fear that the League
of Nations will be fnte-ferred with,
Senator. Lewis, a democratic whip
and authority on the Far East, said
today.
Commenting on Tokyo dispatches
telling Of a plan to stir up Japanese
sentiment By means of mass meet
ings, Lewis said: =. ... ...-.
The mass meetings, it must be
borne in mind, are very likely the
work of opponents of the present
Japanese government, and are for
political effect.
mo party in Japan dares oppose
q movement 20 have the United States
or other countries remove the ban to
admission Of Japanese subjects upon
an equality with the white race.
But in the present instance, It
need not be feared that Japan will
stay out Of the League because Of this
question. An understanding will be
Tad. In my opinion, a gentlemen's
agreement will be entered into be-
tween the United States and Japan,
under which Japan agrees not 10 agi-
tate the question. and we agree to
admit certain numbers Of Japanese,
subject to restrictions as to caste or
class, to be decided on by our immi-
grafton authorities. This arrange
ment. in my judgment, would satisfy
both the Japanese and American peo-
nile"

PORK Bills TOBE
PRUNED WARNING

The pork barrel party in Congress
is making strong effort to come
back.
Hardly an appropriation bin pre-
sented this season but contains items
which leaders frankly admit are
pork for eager constituents Luckily
for the Treasury the majority in Con-
gress Is In an economical fYame Of
mind. and most OF the pork projects
are doomed to elimination.
The ease with which huge war ap-
proprtattcns were passed, and no dues-
tions asked, has led some legislators
TO try TO get big sums for home prof.
ects while the spending mania was
on.
Senator's Thomas, Weeks. Borah,
and others, yesterday sounded the
warning to the pork seekers that their
chances are slim. The river and har-
Dor bill and. the public buildings bill,
both formerly favorites with the
pork dealers,v are to be pruned to
the limit, these Senators warned.

neighboring states trained, he had
ample opportunity to see just what

Elizabeth Blackwell

Elizabeth Blackwell. M. D., the first woman who ever received the degree emitting her to practice medicine, was born in Bristol, England, ninety nine years ago today. She came to America with her father when she was ten years old, settling first in New York and later in Cincinnati. At seventeen she opened a school. and later became governess in the family of a physician in Asheville, N. C., where she spent her spare time read ing medical works. Next she became music teacher in Charleston. S. C., where she was aided in her ambition to become a physician by Dr. s. H. Dixon. After long search for a medical school that would admit her, she was received at Geneva, N. Y, the male students having voted in her favor. She graduated in 1849, and then went to Paris and London for further study. She practiced in New York and London until her death in 1910.

LISTEN CAREFULLY.

Listening is not regarded very seriously by many young folks. They want to do all the talking, feeling certain that their views alone are h. teresting or entertaining. However, master minds are unanimous in de- claring that listening will not only in form, but add to the listeners at- tractiveness.

PILLOW COVERINGS.

In contrast to delicate coverings, a number of more practical pillows are being made of ratine, crash, monk S cloth and velvet materials. Very at tractive are those which are em- broidered with bright colored worst ed in flower clusters, finished with a row of black wooden beads around the edge. The beads are sewed on with several worsted threads, to match the design work. These pill lows vary in shape, round, square and oblong, to suit the design worked up- on them.
 An artist has a striking couch GOV CT of black satin, splashed with sev- eral large disks of emerald green, ap- pliqued at points to break up the spacing into good composition, and her pillows are of solid black and green cords and tassels of the con trasting color.
