RACE RIOTS GREAT STIR
IN ENGLAND AND WALES

London, June 20, Correspondence
of the Associated Press. Race riots
in the northern part of England and
! Wales have cerated a stir throughout
the county, principally because Of the
novelty of such occurrences in these
| islands.
Normally there are few negroes or
aliens with colored skins to be seen
in Great Britain, but the eXigencies of
war caused the. importation of large
number of them to work on seaport
docks and to recruit the rams of man-
ual laborers depleted by the call for
fighting men. They were brought
from various parts of the world, South
Africa and the West indies supplying
the bull of them Many Arabs were
also imported.
Repatriation of these colorcd men
has been slow, with the consequence
that many demobilized British sol
diers have had what to them seemed
the bitter experience Of seeing strarg
ers engaged at profitable employment
while they, themselves, looked in vaE
for WORK.
Resentment over this state of af-
fairs quickly developed into hatred
when the soldiers observed that the
strangers were ,rying to cultivate the
acquaintance of white girls. A num-
Der of negroes took white wives.
A medical officer in the troubled
district describes the situation as
very serious both from health and
economic point of view, and asserts
chat 100000 demobilized men are still
without employment while negroes
are employed SIS this not a gross
injusticeg" he asks. at is nothing
less than ubiquitous that the men
who have fought for their country
should find the jobs they need occu
pied by negroes"

CRoWDING THE BARON

When William Waldorf Astor shook
the dust (but not the real estate) of
New York off his shoes and with
drew in high dudgeon to the shelter
ing shores of Albion it was said that
the chief reason of his eXpatriation
of himself was his intense aversion
to the pitiless publicity of New York
life. No respect, he was understood
to complain, was shown to men of

Sunday papers and lampooned in the
comic weeklies and the hoi polloi was

Philadelphia, April 25-The corn
crop of the United States is threaten
ed. This statement was made to-day
by DR.. L. c. Howard, chief of the
Bureau of Entomology, United States
Department of Agriculture, Washing
ton, who spoke before the American
Philosophical Society at the second
meeting of a three-day session here.
DR.. Howard said the European corn
borer, comparatively new parasite,
introduced into this country from
foreign shipments, has obtained a
strong foothold in New England and
New York. Great damage has alrea-
dy been done.
IF this borer reaches the corn

see what is going to save them. And
there seems to be but slight hope of
our being able to eradicate the pest. 4"

CENTENARY OF THE COLLAR.

the first detachable collar was made
by the wife of a New York black
smith. in order to save herself the
trouble of too frequently washing his
shirts with their collars made all in
one piece, as was then the custim.
The idea appealed to the minister
of the church they both attended, the
Rev. Ebenezer Brown, who, on his
retirement from the ministry ten
years later, opened a small factory

NEW WHEAT DISEASE
MAKES APPEARANCE

Chicago, May 2.-The following of
wheat in certain parts of Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio, together with the
loss of vigor in the plant, are report
ed due to an affection hitherto un-
known in this country.
In a statement to-day, b. w. Snow,
a crop expert, gives DIR. Burlison, Of
the College Of Agriculture, University
of Illinois, as authority for the con-
clusion that the condition as in
vestigated in Madison county. Illinois,
is due to a fungus which attacks the
roots of the plant. In Australia it
is known as ''take-all' and in France

sUFFRAGIsTs TO
RUSH CONGRESS-

Washington, Nay 3.-when the
new Congress convenes in special ses-
sion the legislators will find camping
on their heels the most determined
"petticoat army" that ever assembled
in Washington.
Plans are being made by the suf-
fragists TO rush" congress in behalf
of the immediate passage of the fed
eral suffrage amendment. With all
the efforts that have been put forth
during the congressional races to Sc
cure votes for the amendment, it is
admitted by the suffrage leaders that
they are still one vote shy" in the
Senate.
Miss Alice Pual Chairman Of the
National Woman's Party, said con-
corning the situation of the Senate:
"The failure of Senators Dial, of
South Carolina, Reyes, of New Hamp-
shire; Harris, of Georgia; and Har-
rison. Of Mississippi definitely to de-
clare their positions involves the sit
uation in uncertainty"
"Mnety-two senators have an
nounced their suffrage stand, Sixty
three are for and twenty-nine against
OF the four uncertain men, three are
Democrats and one is a Republican.
OF those pledged, thirty-eight are Re-
publicans and twenty-five are Demo-
Gratis. The proportion of Republicans
and Democrats in support of the
amendment therefore stands rs per
cent Republicans to SO per cent Dem
ocrats.
For a good many weeks the Ma
tioEal Woman's Party or militant
suffrage organization, has been en-
gagged in trying to smoke out" SEN

tion of the national suffrage amend
ment. Senator SANKEY'S statement
follows; at affords me infinite pleas
ure to advise you that ] shall cooper
ate with the great and wise man
whom Providence has put at the helm
of the state, at this trying hour, and
shall in this matter of the Susan

why American soldiers should be call
ed upon TO perform this task we are
not able TO say.
II may be answered that the uni
formed scrubmen that slush suds
around the Hotel Crillon floors do so
from choice, and that they are not
compelled TO engage in this mental
service unless they so desire. This,
however, we submit, is not a suf-
ficient answer, and is one that over
looks the essential opposition TO the
soldier-scTubman-t uniform. II
the uniform of the American soldier
stands for anything, and for two
years we have loudly proclaimed that
it does, then it is worthy of a higher
station in the Hotel Crillon than that
of the scrub bucket and the mop, A
soldier may properly scrub his bar
racks and perform such other duties
az are necessary to his own health
and comfort. That Is one thing; but
when he Is put to work as a soldier
scrubbing floors and washing dishes
for a hotelful of peacemakers and
their families, he becomes a standing
argument why great many Ameri-
cans want nothing to do with the ar
my.
If Paris is totally destitute of
scrub-wOmen. If dishwashers and
scullions generally are not to be had,
1t is proper that such soldiers as have
taste for this sort of work should
have the opportunity to indulge pro-
fitably in it--but as private indi-
viduals, not as soldiers.
The uniform should ever stand for
valorous and self-sacrifcing service
in the army and navy, and should
never be confused with exploits per-
formed with sapolio or the Gold Dust
Twins, for the comfort of Col. House
or any other private individual

NEWSPAPERS CRY OUT
AGAINST WILSON VIEW

Rome, April 25-The reply of
Premier Orlando to President Will
son apparently has made a deep i'm
preston on the Italian press and vir'
tually every Italian newspaper de-
votes much editorial comment TO the
Premier's statement
The Populo Romano says:
Italy replies as one man to her
King and her Government who de-
maAd with answering tenacity their
sacred and impregnable national
rights"
After describing the Premier's re-
ply as a proud and thrilling docu
ment the Corriere D'Italia says:
The American people can not be
in agreement with a man who so
haughtily arrogates to himself tho
right TO decide the fate of Europe
against the desires of its governments
and its peoples.
The Idea Rationale declares that
not one Italian would dare to sign
a peace as proposed by President
Wilson.
The Italia considers that President
Wilson has perhaps irremediably
jeopardized the peace of the world.
The newspapers announce that pa
triotic societies are urging the Italian
people TO address an appeal to the
American people and the American
Senate and House of Representatives.

u. ). DEBTS NOW
$24,S24,345,OOO

Washington, May 3.-Public debt
of the United States Government was
reported today by the Treasury as
$24,S24,345,OOO.
Most of this represents Liberty
bonds of the first, second, third and
fourth issues, but the Victory Loan
is not included to any great extent.
The addition of Victory Loan bonds
will be largely counter-balanced by
redemption of outstanding certifi-
Gates of Indebtedness. No deduction
is made for the sS.S52,00O,0 900 loan
ed to foreign Governments. Conse-
quently the net debt would be APP
proximately $4,000, 600, 900.
The treasury plans to issue other
bonds after thsi year and next year
to meet the flag ends of war expenses,
but in the aggregate these are not
expected to amount to more than ST.
coo, 900, 900 so that the gross public
debt of the United States is expected
by Treasury officials to be in the
neighborhood of S3O.OOO,0O0, 900
when the period of war financing
ends.
The Treasury now has a working
balance of S1.O52, 900, 900 of which
1857, $4,000 is on deposit with the
banks throughout the country on ac-
