Men of worldwide prominence, who have had an opportunity of observing phases of Salvation Army work from first hand, have recently sent to Evangeline Booth, commander of the Salvation Army in the United tSates, messages of appreciation of the labors of the army and expressions of hope for the success of the $13,000,000 Home Service Fund campaign which will be conducted in the United States in the week of May 1926.
 General Pershing, who, as com mander of the American expeditionary force, studied closely the activities of the Salvation Army at the war front, has cabled Miss Booth, asserting in unqualified terms his appreciation of the splendid service" of the Salva- ton Army in France and assuring its commander of the "affectionate re- gard' in which the American soldiers hold it's workers.
 "The outstanding features of the work of the Salvation Army" says General Pershing, "have been it's dis position to push its activities as far as possible to the front and the train ed and experienced character of its workers whose one thought was the well-being of the soldiers they came to serve. This has resulted in a de- gree of excellence and self-sacrifice in the work performed which has been second to none.
 Another man who knew the Salva- tion Army in France as he knew it also in America is Brig-Gen. Cornelius Vanderbile. head of the famous Van derbilt family in New York. So i'm pressed was General Vanderbilt by the value and usefulness of Salvation Army endeavors overseas that he has become chairman for Greater New York in the Home Service Fund cam paign. He has written to Commander Booth as follows:
 "As a soldier, here and over there, both in the training camps and at tho front, I was won to the cause of the Salvation Army because of it's efficient and common sense methods. In the rear of battle the Salvation Army was always at hand with it's help and com fort for each soldier.
 "The Salvation Army has always been the legion of democracy. It is the vanguard of the new era. It stands for a primitive type of Christianity now just as it did 50 years ago when its founder sounded its clarion call of service to all the world

C. & 4. BEAT BANKERS; GAME IS APPEALED TO
 BIG FOUR" IN PARIS

While they had all the financial backing in the district still they couldn't even draw their breath" That was the statement issued by the president of the victorious c. & A. ball team after his men reported to 1 him by wireless that they had cleaned out the "kale hounds" to the tune of 14 to 2, at Warren park yesterday aft ernoon.
 On the heels of the victors an nOuncement the vice-president ane general manager of the vanquished bankers came out like this: My men fully expected a keg of root beer to be on third base and when they ar rived at that base and found out they were still in dry territory they lost interest in the game and refused to go any further. My men can't play without refreshments and our defeat while it might appear to the public as being disastrous, still we consider it a victory only for the 'drys' ans hope to have the president annul the game on the grounds of it being un- constitutional. If they had put keg on third as advertised my men would have given the public the brand of ball that has made them. champions. But the keg wasn't there and conse- quently my men laid down on the job and let the miners get all the glory, which is only a false glory
 When the president of the c. & As twas shown the statement of the van quished manager he said: "Poof-poof I'll take the matter up with the state legislature of Sonora. My men can beat 'em playing marbles, nipps or anything they choose Rocks would be the weapons my men would relish" l" And thus the matter stands.
 The game which was to have gone as many as nine innings started promptly 15 minutes after it was scheduled. The delay was the result of the teams failure to fetch along their bats and as result they had to send back to one of the mines for some timberings. The bankers allege that the c. & A. club violated the rules of International courtesy inasmuch as l one of the players was seen on the diamond with a crow bar in his pocket. ! The c. & A. club charges that the bankers tried to bribe their umpire by offering him $5O,OOO to call ball a

COMPULSORY HEALTH
 INSURANCE OPPOSED

NEW YORK, May Exchanges that campaigns for compulsory health in- surance conducted in New York, Ohio and elsewhere, were based on gross misstatemepts' of facts and delusions" were made today at meeting of the social insurance department of the Ma tional Civic federation. The session was presided over by Warren s. Stone, grand chief of the Internation- al Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers.
 MT. Stone asserted the working peo- pie were vehemently opposed to com pulsory health insurance He ex- pressed the belief that it would de stroy initiative of the industriai worker.
 Speakers declared that adoption of compulsory health insurance would rob the working people of their American right of choosing their own physician, force a "paupetr med ical service" on them, cause dissatis faction and injure public health.

 A man named GlendennIng pitched for the bankers and a man named Schowalter attempted to catch the ball as Glendenning would attempt to throw it. The other members of the team could not be found up until mid night last night A few of the de- feated players it is learned, are still hiding under the graudstand at the Warren park on account of few bets outstanding.

Hurley Swings Around

Ed Hurley has finally swung around
to the point where the shipping inter
ests are backing him up. 1t is that
the United States retire from owenr-
ship and operation and dispose of YES
sells to private interests. 1t took Ed
a long time to get around to this point,
and there is no telling how long he
will stay there, unless he is pegged.
Within two weeks after the signing
Of the armistice practically every bu-
reaucrat in this Administration was
declaring for government ownership
and operation of everything in the
United States. They followed Mr.. Will

is to be hoped they will continue to
follow him as the rats followed the

cidentally with this announcement
comes the news that the general board
of the navy has recommended that
S46 100000 is necessary for the naval
air program for the coming year, al
though with the strictest economy that
sum can be kept down to $35,000,0 900.
Secretary Daniels urgently recon-
mends that at least the latter sum be
allowed by Congress.
The sale of 2,716 airplanes and A.
sos motors at such ridiculously low
prices proves one of two things. Either
the equipment was practically worth
less in the beginning, or there has been
gross incompetence in iquidating the
surplus stocks of the army.

WORD FROM WASHINGTON
Why Not Employ Americans?

Washington, July 1.-(Special cor
respondence)-A large proportion OF
the lenses, range finders, and other
optical instruments used by the army
and navy are made by concern at
Rochester, New York. Up to eighteen
months age the establishment was
owned and operated by an enemy y-alien
company. About that time it was dis
covered that many Of the appliances
it manufactured, designed for installa-
ton on the new battleships and sub
marines, were very faulty. Immediate
ly the plant was Communicated and
about seventy-five anti-Americans and
l. w. WIS were dismissed.
In order to take care of the increas-
ing demand in the navy for optical in
instruments of various kinds new
shop, one of the most modern and best
equipped in the country, has been
erected at the Washington, d. c., navy
yard, with the intention of supplying
the needs of our ships in the future.
In collecting the personnel for the new
work it is proposed by the Navy De-
partment to bring from Rochester
practically all the employees of the
former German establishment in that
city, as well as most of the fittings
used by that company in its work.
Many of them are not citizens of this
country, and even the master mechanic
who is TO receive a wage of $l2.16 per
day, is of German birth.
Naturally the American worlsmen at
the navy yard are up in arms over the
prospect Of having a lot of enemy
aliens imported into their midst to per-
form a class Of work that has hereto
fore been done very acceptably by our
own artisans. There has always been
a small optical shop at the yard, oper-
ated by an expert personnel. They
claim that if additional workmen are
needed to produce an increased output
they should be obtained from the ranks
of returning soldiers and sailors, hun
dreds of whom are skilled in the optic
al profession, and have had practical
experience in the operation of the in
struments they would manufacture.
They object strenuously to bringing in
O horde of Germans, Austrians, Rus
slams, and Poles to make some of the
most delicate and important instru-
ments used in the navy. 1t is open
ly ninted that there will be serious
strike at the navy yard If Mr.. Daniels
presists in carrying out his intentions

The Georgia Graft.

Representative John C. Mckenzie, of
Illinois, is one of the increasingly num-
erous members of Congress who will
not stand for an unnecessary and
wasteful public expenditure even if his
own state is to get benefit Of it. Dur
ing the recent discussion of the enorm-
Gus sums Of money spent for the es-
Enlistment Of rifle range at Fort
Benning, in Northern Georgia, since
the armistice was signed, he remarked
that he had indicated to the War De-
partment his belief that needless ex-
penditures should be avoided even if
affecting an army camp in Illinois.
When Southern Democrat undertook
to defend the authority of the Depart
ment to make the rifle range expendi-
lures in Georgia, Mr.. Mckenzie de
elared that under Congressional appro-
rriations the Department had estab-
lished 16 National Guard camps, 16
IcSntonmeuts and 16 flying fields,
which had a capacity to take care of
the army we proposed to put into the
field. When any official of the War
Department would go out to any sec
ton Of the country and enter into a
contract for the purpose of buying real
estate and establishing unnecessary
camps, unnecessary for military uses
and purposes of this country, / deny
his right to bind the people of this
country to pay for that thing" Mr..
Mekenzie's words were greeted with
hearty applause by his fellow Con-
| gressmen.
