HONEYMOON IN AERIAL LIMOUSINE is LATEST FAD

The latest innovation in we'd
dings was inaugurated by Mr..
Hamilton and Miss Standen of
Chorley Wood, England. who,
after their marriage ceremony was
performed. left on their honey
moon in az aero-liraousine piloted
by a tEusty aviator. If these air
routes become popular for newly
weds it will be hard on the IN
feeling friends who always trail
the fleeing couple and throw rice,
old shoes and decorate the car
with signs and tin cans. It will
be nice, however, for the man who
only gets a week eff for his honey
moon. for he can take his bride
around the world in that time by
airplane.

ASKS THAT SHE QUIT
Mrs. Chaplin Requests Mrs. Ora Scud-
der To Resign.

der To Resign.
Two candidates for the same office
shouldn't work together. That vir-
tually is the opinion rendered by Mrs.
Mary E. Chaplin, clerk of the district
court, when she asked Mrs. Ora l.
Scudder. a deputy, to tender her resig-
nation effective August /.
Mrs. Scudder's resignation was
asked in the interest of Harmony in
the office" said Mrs. CHAPLIN today.
Under the circumstances the public
would necessarily suffer If she would
continue in office"
While Mrs. Chaplin has not an
nounced her candidacy for reelection,
it is known she is considering an an
nouncement in a short time. Mrs.
Scudder came to Topeka about year
ago and obtained a position as deputy
in the clerks office. Mrs Chaplin
claims that Mrs. Scudder told her
nothing concerning her candidacy
until the same morning that Mrs
Scudder announced her candidacy for
clerk of the district court.

possible to be, operators are not disposed
to press the selling side of corn in view of
the possibilities Of a drought scare.
Sentiment has changed materially among
some OF the strongest commission houses

or ten days longer without rain before any
material damage will he done and much
will depend on whether hot winds de-
velOp. The latter are more feared by the
trade than drought. For the present
weather conditions are a big factor in the
corn market Those who are bullish on
corn incline to the buying side so long
as weather continues hot and dry. An
other factor is the prospect Of lighter ar
rivals which with the small stocks make
the pressure from sellers light. Contract
stocks Saturday night were 339. 900. of
which $1,000 were withdrawn Monday.
December corn would feel the effects of

brought new factor into the market
and provided more outside buying. Chi
cago is relatively the highest oat market In
the country and Is attracting oats here
for that reason. Purchases of old and
new to arrive the last few days have been
large as Monday being between 100000
and 100000 which were hedged In the pit.
On all bulges the market runs into SELL
ing orders by commission houses causing
set backs. It is expected that elevator
people are trying to fill their houses with
oats before the wheat movement becomes
so heavy that cars will be unavailable and
secure a carrying charge. Seaboard said
bids were far out of line.

state that within three months in

capacity with stabilized prices" Cleve-
land industries. with the exception of
automobiles, are reporting operating
at about 60 per cent of capacity. Auto
mobiles are running to full capacity.
Detroit, being the center of the au-
tomobile industry. is enjoying an ex-
ceptional measure of prosperity, in
dustries there, according to the De-
troit News, operating at practically
100 per cent capacity. "Commercial
trade is excellent" says the News. "A

THE general feeling regarding the
outlook in the near future is most
optimistic. Manufacturers evidently
are convinced that an era Of prosper
ity is to be expected. Commercial
stocks are moving rapidly. Buyers are
evidently recovering from their for
mer feeling Of hesitancy and seem de-
termined to get their share Of busi-
ness. Early in the year all were hold

gone. Establishments are going on
steadily as a result Of removal Of the
feeling of uneasiness. The idea Of
waiting, before attempting to revive
business, until prices Of materials
have gone down to somewhere near
former levels has been given up. Both
financiers and Industrial leaders take
the stand that they will lose more by
waiting than they will by paying the
price and going ahead"

Rush to Buy Goods.
Here is what the New York Tribune,
taking not only local but national
view of the outlook, has to say:
prosperity on a scale comparable
The chief reasons why it must come
are:
II. Deferred business of amazing
volume that cannot be deferred much
longer.
"2. Purchasing power in this coun-
try almost without limit, and,
%. The heavy foreign demand for
American products that will come

TT is unnecessary to speak in the
future tense of prosperity in many
lines. Prosperity has arrived in not a
few trades, and on such scale that
producers are falling far behind in
the race to keep production up to
demands. Merchants are in New York
right now trying to buy goods for
next spring. months ahead OF the
usual time for buying such goods.
The volume of purchases by retail
merchants has been rising steadily
since early in January. and now is
at a peak that has been equaled only
once or twice before"

swing in Ohio. a cheerful view of the
outlook apparently prevails. ''The

Congress is ready for the job. The

interested in the subject. The voters

proper kind of legislation. Represent
alive Albert johnson of Washington.
who Is to be chairman Of the House
committee on immigration in the new
Congress. has been studying the prob
lem devotedly for months and is ready
to submit a tentative bill which he
will invite the committee to pick to
pieces, amend and revise until the
best possible measure has been
evolved.
3 The one big purpose in view is: To
make America safe for Americans,
for American principles and ideals;
to protect American industries as the
support of general prosperity: to pre-
serve and maintain American stand
ards of living.
The probabilities are that the Bur-
nell immigration suspension bill will
be reintroduced with a clause added
for the deportation of those aliens
who withdrew their first papers in
order to avoid the draft. That bill will
be used by the committee as a basis
for the development Of two distinct
and comprehensive measures-one de-
voted entirely to immigration. and
the other to naturalization.
Lawyers all over the country are
complaining that questions pertaining
to immigration and naturalization
