AFTER LOCAL A. H. T. A.
New Organization Here To Help Catch
Auto Thieves.

The organization of a local chapter
of the anti-horse thief association is
to be pushed in Topeka beginning to-
day, according to a statement made
at the Chamber of Commerce this
noon by a Mr.. Hare, of Coffeyville,
who is here for that purpose.
The association began organization
work here just before the 1918 flu
epidemic. but the campaign for mem
bers was shut off following the plac-
ing of the flu ban. At that time more
than 100 local auto owners had been
listed as members. The object of the
local association is to deprive profess
sional and amateur automobile thieves
of some of the profits of that line of
endeavor. 1t is the old anti-horse
thief association remodeled to meet
modern needs.
The matter of organization of the
local chapter is to be taken up thru
the Topeka Motor Dealers association,
the Topeka Auto club and one or two
other kindred organizations

Reed Makes Bitter Attack on
Wilson in Senate Today.
Marks Opening of Fight Over
Johnson Amendment.

Washington. Sept. ga bitter at
tack upon President Wilson by Sena-
tor Reed, Missouri. marked the open
ing of the senate fight over the john
son peace treaty amendment today.
The amendment would equalize the
vote of the United States and 1'rt at
Britain in the League of Nations as
sembly.
Reed. in a speech to the senate. de-
clared the presidents statement at San
Francisco that this country. with its
one vote to Great Britain's six. cannot
be outvoted. is erroneous to the last
degree"
The president disregards the fact
that when the United states is
party in interest. IL is denied the right
to vote at all. In dispute between
the United states and Great Britain,
where neither are permitted to sit in
judgment, the five British colonies and
dominions are, as independent self
governing bodies, permitted to cast
their votes"
Reed said that President Wilson
was mistaken when he says that the
assembly of the league Is largely an
international debating society" with
no real power.
Reed delivered a bitter attack upon
President Wilson. in the course of
which he declared:
The man who is willing to give to
any nation or assemblage of nations
the right to mind the business of the
American people. ought to dtsclaim
American citizenship and emigrate to
the country he is willing to have mind

MANY SAW SHOW
Almost $500 Raised at the Nov

Money Goes to Relief of Gulf
Storm Sufferers.

Dressed in silks and satins and
showing every evidence of at least
comfortable circumstances three pop
ular Topeka society girls appeared at
the Novelty theater Sunday afternoon
to attend the benefit performance CIV
en- by the actors for the Gulf coast dis
aster fund. The total subscription
given by the three girls was three
cents-each one dropping one shiny
new penny in the basket.
Another incident was that of the old
man with white hair. back bowed with
years of toll, and dressed in old. much
patched clothes. He was accompan-
led by his equally aged and careworn
wife These two were unable to find
even standing room for the perform
ance. However, their one dollar con-
tribution was forthcoming. and is now
on its way to help relieve distress and
suffering in the hurricane district.
Raised Almost $500.
These two extremes of human ma
ture are usual. But it is comment
enough on the crowds which went to
the Novelty for the benefit perform
ance Sunday afternoon to say that the
total amount raised for the disaster
fund at the performance was nearly
$500.
Less than half of this amount was
contributed at the door as the people
filed in. The other half was tossed at
the head of Charlie Mitchell when Big

audience to use Mitchell's person for a

every performer and helper was called
into service to clear the stage of the
silver snow.
Actors Made Big Sacrifice.
When the show was over and the
actors were notified of the amount
raised for the relief of the Gulf Coast
sufferers, they were highly pleased
and went on their way to Wichita re-
joicing. The actors missed a whole
day of sleep. and voluntarily submit
ted to a sleepless second night on a
railway train in order to give the bene-
fit performance.
The acts which took part in the
benefit were the Church Sisters. the
