SIMPLIFIED PASSPORT SYSTEM

Changed conditions in the commerce of Europe brought about by the de- velopment of commercial aviation is strikingly shown by the sudden need of new passport regulations for which the users of aerial transportation are now clamoring.
 If business man can leave London and reach Paris, Brussels or Amster- dam within few hours after the need for the journey arises and get back home on the same or the next day. it Is certain that many business people would habitually pay such sudden and short visits in preference to relying on correspondence Such a course is, however, impossible at present, as it is necessary to have the passports yised-a matter which now takes about two days at each end.
 It is clear that with the develop ment of foreign trade from the United States to other countries by means of airplanes and airships; some simpli- fled passport system will have to be instituted. One method, which the national foreign trade council learns is favored abroad would be to issue some Identification certificate to pas sengers, similar to an automobile driv- CTS license, permitting unlimited trips for given period to any country with whom the necessary arrangements had been made

BOY SCOUTS AND BOMBS

A circular printed in red and threatening him With "extermination' for his part In the boy scout mem. bership drive was received by Gavin McNab, prominent attorney of San Francisco.
 Others were said to have been re- ceived by Associate Justice W. w. Morrow of the United States circuit court, and Frank Sumers; an attor- ney, who also were identified with the campaign.
 The circular accused McNab of re- cruiting the boys as future soldiers ito protect the f1ag-flaunting finan- ciers."
 One of the most effective ways to fight bolshevism and anarchism in this country is the suggestion: Boost the boy scout movement" Everybody knows the wholesome Americanism taught the boys of this organization, along with a general system of physi- cal, mental and moral development. One seldom hears of boy scout going wrong and getting into trouble with the law. It may also be said no one ever hears of scout who Is not a patriot.
 Boys who belong to the scouts do not grow up to flaunt red flags and plant bombs. And if they have any influence at home, their fathers and big brothers imbibe something of their spirit of loyalty and understanding. Clearly enough, If all American boys were scouts, there would be mighty fewW V adult reds to make troubl1.

Despite the avowed intention of the department of the interior to see that Alaska gets the benefit of legislation being enacted in Washington to re lieve conditions in the States, there seems to be a disposition on the part Of the national law-making body to exclude this territory from practically all remedial legislation.

Winter Sale of White WitH
Starts ON Friday, y,
ND no LUOnidn needing nelD under
garments can afford to miss it.


1t is as genuine an opportun-
ity as was ever opened to the prudent
and the saving, to the dainty in taste~and
the discriminating in quality over the
name subscribed below, and under the
name of that famous annual institution,
the Winter Sale of White
Indeed, it is a greater opportunity.
These White Sales, Wanamaker origi-
nation, were started in the days when
women bought underwear by dozens with
fine unconcern, and thought as little of
buying chemiSe as they now think of
buying a handkerchief.
If even then the Sales were solidly SER
viceable, in bringing together a wide Sc
lection, and Offering savings not to be
despised, what must White Sale, of the
kind that can only be held in Wanama-
ker Store, mean to the women of today?
They need the savings as much as
they do the garments, and they need the
garments as much as they do the savings.
With cotton as scarce as it is and as
high as it is, and production hampered as
it is by labor conditions, every woman
knows that made-up cotton goods (that
you'd be willing to put on), are none too
plenty and are assuming formidability in
prices.
With cotton as scarce as it is and
as high as it is, and labor conditions in
factories what they are, we and our old
stand-bys, the manufacturers who for so
many years have faithfully served us and
our customers, put our heads together
and determined that in January, 1920,
there should be White Sale equal to any
held in previous Winters!
1T is that sort of Sale which will open
IL to the public next Friday. Every
whit as fine, as fresh, as,dainty, as ample
in its quantities and it's provisions as the
public is accustomed to see.
Every bit as white i and yet at the
self-same time bit pinker!
Women who fellow the fashions will
understand why, and will be glad to 1ear
it. Especially to know that almost for
the first time, it will be possible to obtain
the sheer, exquisite garments, handmade
and hand-embroidered in the Philippines,
in the delicate flesh tints as we'll as the
snowy white).
Some things may be missing, but, to
again create paradox, will not be
missed
We refer to the scarcity of imported ma
terials, including the laces and embroideries
which we used to receive from Europe, but whose
place has been largely taken by the excellent
aces and other trimmings which the American
manufacturers have been spurred into making

achievement, you'd think, If you kneU the

half on many garments. That is, we our
selves would have to pay for their like (if
we could get their like) 25 to so per cent

markets.
This is not because they are shelf
clearances, ours or anybOdy's. We began
preparing for this Sale early last Summer.
Save for the sample groups referred to,
nearly every garment mentioned above is

execution of orders placed months ago.

CHANG ON FOR MANY YEARS
Scientists Know That JeIIyfish Live
Long, but ''What Do They
Get Out of liz"

In a recent lecture to children at
the Royal institution, London, Prof
Darcy W. Thompson told of a jelly
fish known as Granny that was res
cued by Sir John Graham Dalyell and
kept alive in sea water. Granny, ac-
cording to Prof. Thompson, was care
fully tended by Sir John and fed reg
ularly one-half mussel a fortnight.
She throve exceedingly under this kind
attention. Six hundred of her offspring
were known. On the death of Sir John
she passed to the care of an arctic
explorer and was bequeathed by him
to another scientific man. Granny out
lived four protectors and died at last,
Oct. IL, 1887, at the authentic age Of
81 years, because of the neglect or
ill-treatment Of a botanist.
Prof. Thompson did not say so, but
he left it no be assumed that had the
neglectful botanist been as careful and
attentive as was Sir John Dalyell
Granny might yet be alive, says the
New York Tribune, in which case she
would be no less than SO years old,
and assuming that she was at least
two when Sir John found her, which
seems probable, she would be well
past the century mark.

Judge Gary, appearing before the
senate committee on labor, made it
clear that there is no hope of arbitra-
ton or other amicable settlement of
the strike, for the United States Steel
corporation intends to fight the unions
to a finish. He said the issue is the
open shop against the closed shop, in
volving the right of employers to hire
whom they please; that the closed
shop is immoral, meaning decreased
production, higher prices and national
decay; that the Steel corporation will
never recognize the unions or contract
with them, and that it will never deal
with union leaders as such. He de-
cIared the corporation does not object
to it's employees organizing, and is will
ing at all times to grant them hearings
concerning grievances. He told of the
wages paid the employees and what
the corporation has done in the way
of housing them. The average wages,
excluding administration and selling
forces. have advanced from $29S on
July 1. 1914, to 1927 on July l. 1919.
Judge Gary was followed on the
stand by William q. Foster, who is
considered by many as the real leader
of the strike.
