WHY BECOME
PARTICLES CRIMINIS?

Friends of the peace treaty in the
Senate contend that ii would avail
nothing if the United States amended
the treaty so as to provide for the re-
turn Of Shantung 10 China instead of
to Japan. They claim that when the
treaty is ratified by three powers it
becomes operative, and that the Uni
ted States would have no authority to
compel a change in its terms relating
to the disposition Of foreign territory.
Very well, then, why not strike out all
references to Shantung? We have
sympathy for China in being robbed Of
possessions rightfully hers, but the
American people would scarcely want
to go to war with Japan to make her
relinquish her Shantung claims, par
iicularly when she is supported in
them by England, France. Italy and
other nations. Neither does America
want 70 give assent to the transaction
By ratifying the treaty as il stands.
The only logical course for the Sen
ate 10 pursue is 10 wipe the whole
section from the treaty, and put upon
other nations the responsibility for
whatever action is taken e.

OF all the hustling hustlers, gentle
men, allow us TO introduce TO you Col.
Frank Tompkins, commandant of Nor
witch university--at present and for
different periods before. He started
July LIST to erect the new stables of
Norwich University and il is expected
that the building will be ready for
occupancy by Oct LIST. This building,
which was made possible through the
foresight and generosity of Gen. Rush
c. Hawkins of Civil War fame, him
self native Vermonter and a guest in
Manchester for several summers past,
is nearly 200 feet in length and some
60 feet wide. General Hawkins gave
the first $4,000 that started the ball
"A rolling. The stables are constructed
Of brick and iron and will be models
Of their kind when completed. We
might add in passing that Colonel
Tompkins is the man who trained and
took to France the 30lst Infatry Of
the 10th Division. "Boston's Own" he
also is the man who led the battalion
Of the 18th U. S. Cavalry into Mexico
and was SO hot on the trail Of Villa
that another "a hours would have had
him. The troops, however, were
ordered to return by the higher
authorities and thus saved Villa for
further depredations. Colonel Tomp-
kins still carries a Mexican bullet or
two in his anatomy as souvenirs of the
occasion. Oh, Frank Tompkins is a
hustler all right and Norwich men are
proud of him. What does Vermont
think about an institution that COM
mands the love and energy Of man
like him, native Of another state, too.

COMPLAINT OF CHURCHMEN

And now prominent ministers, Of
various denominations, are blaming the
defects Of the league to the fact that
the peace conference refused TO open
its sessions with prayer and failed to
mention the Deity in the peace treaty.

Of Independence and Constitution made
no such mistake.

FORCED PROFITEERING

Undoubtedly there is much truth in
the assertion that the Wilson admins

sation was SIS a week. Some of them
now insist upon remaining idle rather
than work for less than $40 per.

STARVATION WAGES
Just What Pittance the Railroad Men
Are Receiving.

The over-burdened taxpayer will
read with interest figures showing how
the underpaid railroad employees of
the country who are asking for an in
crease of $500, 100000 a year in wages,
are now forced to live on a mere pit
lance. The figures are furnished by
the general manager Of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad and were given out by
Representative Bolton of Texas in Con-
gress. The figures are made up from
the yearly schedule and show the aver
age to be as follows
Per Month
Freight engineers $ 302.35
Passenger engineers 1865
Freight conductors 1880
Passenger conductors 308.55
These figures represent an income
of from $1,000 TO S4700 a year They
furnish the best reason why the in
solent demands of the brotherhoOds
should be met with refusal. The great
mass of wage earners receive no such
princely income but they are taxed
every manjack of them, to pay them.
Railroading is not such an arduous,
exhausting or dangerous calling as to
call for wages SO much greater than

Number of Deeds and
Mortgages Filed in July

Brooklyn real estate activity is estab-
hshlne new nigh record, according to
Ngures for July which have just been
mad public by Register Webster. The
Kings County Registers office received
5,022 deeds. 6,5a9 mortgages, 2,231 sat-
isfactions and seventy-four miscellanc-
ous pap,., during the month of July
sota of l4,0l5 papers. This is an
increase OF l,Gol over the months of
June. II 's also the largest July figure
IN the history of the office, and with
one single exception is the busiest
month the office has ever known.
That exception was June, 1905. when
2l.3a6 papers poured into the Registers
Office The occasion for that rush was
that it was the last month before the
mortgage tax law went into effect, and
there was 8 frantic scramble to COM
plete ali pending mortage deeds and
10 report all existing mortgages in
that month are accordingly Unnatural
and 20 not represent the real extent
of real estate activity of those davs.
Register Webster considers that he is
justified in disregarding the figures of
that exceptional month as an indication
of genuine real estate activity and in
stating that July, l9l9 was the most
active month that Brooklyn real estate
has ever had. There is no sign of a
decrease ana August may show an even
greater total number of papers.
Register Webster has turned in 1885,
318,ll6 to the City Chamberlain in ex-
cess of all expenses. He figures that
the ofiic, will certainly show profit
of Sl75 900 this year and possibly $780,
600 This is the first year that the
office has ever been money making
proposition for the community
These figures are entirely indepen-
dent of the mortgage tax collected by
the Register This department took in

collection in the history of the office.

Support is given Register Wcbstcr's
statement, which is based on statistics
that Brooklyn is experiencing unprece-
dented real estate trading, By an an
nouncement Of the Realty Associates
made yesterday of the sale Of sixty
three properties for a total of $1.7A5.-

tors in the Brooklyn market for many
years, buts never before have they con
summated as many deals in as short
time.
The buying Is entirely for invest
ment, the apartment shortage and the
house renting situations being respon-
slbie Tor the movement. Analysis made
OF the advantages Of ownership has
convinced many folks OF the economy
OF OF owning ones home and the buy a
nome movement has gained consider
able impetus as a consequence.
The buying is general, judging by the
report OF the Realty Associates, who

is the builder and the plan is to have
the building ready for occupancy early
next year: The rooms will be divided
into small suites. There will be a
restaurant, ROOF garden and cafe The
cafe will have seating capacity of
500.
The project IN normal times would
not be entitled to notice, as buildings
of the type are nothing unusual But
at q time like this, when builders are
awaiting the move Of others before
they VIII take a step, the announce
ment has q moral value. Reports of
improvements of a similar chara cter
Involving large capital coming from
half dozen leading cities Of the
country would have the effect of lead

were over and action the word.
