THE BEAUTIFUL BEECH
F'rom the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

(From the Cleveland Plain Dealer)
 White athwart the deep blue of tho winter sky or softly gray against the sunlit background of the snow the beech is the most beautiful of our winter trees. When there is no blue sky or snowy earth the beech abates nothing of it's fairness. She is tho good white spirit of the groves. Straight and clean, symmetrical, round topped abounding in airy grace, yet assertive- many of the most desirable aboreal qualities. And now, in winter, she be- comes a tireless singer of songs of bet ter times.
 The autumn change turned her fol- iage to a light golden grow. Winter came, and the leaves deadened to pale, dull buff. Today they still clothe the twigs and branches, a protecting garment for each of the sisters of this i sylvan white company. They are bangles as well as rairaent, and when the wind stirs it sets them all to rust | ing and crepitating. When the gale makes the bare trees creak and moan | it brings from the beech only a mer- rier music of multitudinous castanets. It is capricio of summer in the heart of the blizzard.
 ] Only the oaks vie with the beech in retaining their foliage through the win ter. Scientists say it is train inherit ed from remote evergreen ancestors. But the leaves of the oaks are touSn and leathery, and their post mortem frolic has none of the lightness and ] marriment of the beech trees digging.

Of casualties in Chicago's most
modern tragedy-the fall Of IN

flames over the people in the bank.
Many were cut by great chunks of
broken glass from the skylight.
Women on Fire
The employees of the bank, mostly
women. some with clothes afire, ran
screaming from the building thru
the two exits. The exits became
blocked and jammed with bodies.
Meanwhile hurry calls had been sent
for every available ambulance and
police patrol in the city. Many OF
the surviving women won their way
to the sidewalk to collapse in a faint.
The intense heat inside the bank
broke the plate glass windows on
the outside and made rescue work
difficult. The work of rescuing the
bodies of those burned beneath the
huge craft could not be started until
35 minutes later, when the wreck

bitterest fought in the senate.
Fight Begins
At a meeting OF the Theodore

The Resolution
Whereas. the most flagrant act
OF injustice was the defeat by the
senate of the state of Washington of
the bill known as the 'Lamping bill,

mental in doing this should be for

have not yet assumed the duties of

Therefore. be IL resolved by Theo-

Shall Bhagwan Singh, leader in an
attempted revolt against the BRITISH
government, be condemned to death by
the United States government?
1t means exactly that if Singh is de-
ported to India, as United States Com
missioner of immigration White pro-
poses.
Singh has Just completed a term in the federal
penitentiary at McNeis Island. But he is not
an ordinary criminal His crime consisted in
joining with others in speaking and writing against
British rule in East India, his native land Be-
he did that, he was convicted of violating
the NEUTRALITY" of the United States, as the
alleged plot occurred in 1915, two years before the
United States had joined the allies in the world
war. Singhs crime therefore not war
crime against the United States. 1t pre-
war case. 1t a POLITICAL crime so far
as the United States government was, or is,
concerned.
But, should Singh be deported, it would mean
his execution by the British government
Why should the United States do that? 1t has
never before in its history turned over political
prisoners to the countries that sought them.
At this very moment, president" De Valera
of Ireland, is on speaking tour of the United
States, spreading propaganda against British rule,
a political refugee even as Bhagwan Singh is.
Would we send De Valera to prison for violating
neutrality or anything kindred to it? Has the
commissioner of immigration threatened to deport
him if he should ever touch foot on Seattle soil?
NO! And rightly so.
This country opened its arms to Carl SchuH
after the unsuccessful revolt of the liberals in
Prussia; and he rose to eminence here, and gave
the United States devoted service. 1t has been
the haven of refuge to thousands upon thousands
of political refugees. AS nation, it aided and
abetted the revolt of the Cubans against Spain. 1t
has always extended hand of sympathy to its
South American neighbors in the attempt to
throw off the yoke of monarchs.
Are we to forget all our traditions of the past?
Are we too. to grind under heels every human
aspiration to self-government?
This is not plea for self-rule in India
This is not plea against Britain. 1t is quite
natural for Great Britain to seek the punish
ment of Singh-and that of Valera, too But
it is plea against the United States govern
ment washing another country's dirty
linen."
AS long as these men are in the United
States they can be considered as nothing
more than political refugees
And this land of the free and home
of the brave" cannot, in good con-
science" be party to their execution.
