Buoys for Boys

A S boys Of the age for which Irving
L n Hancock writes are not given to
poring over book reviews it is safe to say
anything we like about Daue Darrtn on
Mediterranean Service and Uncle Sans
Boys Smash the Germans. Let US con-
fess that we knew nothing about Mr..
Hancock and were inclined to feel seorn-
full of his extremely bromide looking
books until we approached nephew OF
seventeen. This youth, who was on the
point Of entering the Royal Air Force
last November and is now about to enter
college, advanced the facts that the Han
cock books are fine, all of Unexpectedly
splendid stories of adventure; that every
boy reads them, and that he would be
glad to look over the two in question.
If had not been necessary to reduce the
books to book notices in a given time you
might have had something really good in
the way of reporting. At the end of the
second day we unearthed the entraneed
youth from his easy chair and wrenched
them from him. Since that time we have
read the books, both Of them, and dis
covered them to be 255 pages apiece OF
cleancut, double quick adventure 1t has
also been discovered that Mr.. Hancock is
the author of ten series of these gayly
moving stories, and that the young male
of the species tremhles with joy at men
ton of his name.
Daue Ddrrin on Mediterranean Service
is full of international intrigue. The
U. s. battleship Hudson is on Mediter-
ranean service with Dave Darrin and
Dan Dalzell aboard as ensigns. There are
some other officers, but they amount to
practically nothing. On shore leave the
ensigns discover band of spies bent on
no less ambitious an object than forcing
England and America into war, and after
many battles succeed in outwitting them
By way Of relaxation the heroes then visit
Gibraltar, Naples and Monte Carlo, with
great benefit to the reader. II shall not
gamble at Monte Carlo" Dave remarks
magnifeently, II can make better use of
my money and my character. Any man

An Angel Complex

WALLACE IRWIN used to do
amusing things, but he does them
no more He used to write sacrile-
giously funny verses about United
States Senator's house on Fifth avenue
that was a mixture Of early Lincoln and
late (oh, very late now North German
Lloyd. He used to play around with a
japanese sehoolboy, whose comments on
American life were acute as well as funny.
One could wish for the Japanese school
boy now-Hashimura was his name-to
tell us what he thinks about Shantung and
Kiao-Chau and points adjacent.
One could wish for anything, as a mat
ter Of fact, from Mr. Irwin, except The
Blooming Angel. Long fiction is not his
forte; it must be a suppressed desire that
should have remained suppressed. (He
has written some unusually good short
stories.) The Blooming Angel is worse
than Venus in the East. We cannot re-
member anything about Venus in the East,
except that it was bad. We hope that by
tomorrow we shall as completely have
forgotten the Angel.
Only those amiable ones who are will
ing to see something funny even in false
teeth and hay fever and pink elephants
will be able to get much fun out of this
book. And yet the impression is strong
that the story is meant to be humorous.
The heroine, we are also convinced, is sup
posed to be charming, red Tam O. Shan
ter, slangy, sauey and impudent girl,
who is expelled from college, in contrast
to the blue stocking debating daughter Of
a professor, and who, if she does not
continue the good work begun by the pro-
fessor's daughter on "the winner of the
William Barbour prize for oratcry," at
least succeeds in making him a millionaire,
whose Framm's Complexion Preparations
are sold all over the world.
This is how, in ''the childish innocence
of her voice, the Framm Complexion Girl
talks: I'm not going to let my candy
husband play second trombone to any,
body, not in all this awful big green
world. I'm going TO make a regular nor
mulous hit out of my Goober. l
don't mean Shakespeare or any of those
mighty uggles. But 1 can make Goober
so great he'll just pop out of his clothes"
There is more Of this innocent talk in
Mr.. Twins story, if there are those who
like and are willing to pay good money
for it, with butter and eggs still up and
the peace treaty not yet ratified.

For Merchant Mariners

-
HERMAN MELVILLE. Richard
Il L Henry Dana, Joseph Conrad, Viii
liam McFee, have written of the days
when going to sea" was ar adventure in
which hardships predominated ar the re-
wards of which, if one received any worth
mentioning, were in the nnn-bankable or
spiritual values Of experience. Thanks to
the United States Shipping Board and
the revival of the American merchant
marine under conditions a!apte1 to the
new spirit of things, going TO sea to-day
is no longer hit or miss affair, but a
regular trade which is taught as other
trades are, that his its unions, its reg
ulated hours Of labor, its standardized
rates of pay and regular routine of pro-
motion for those who qualify. Being a
sailor not long ago meant oftener than not
that one was either cring1ng slave or
soulless bully-if the writers of sea tales
are to be Believed To-day it means that
the young man who works at Il is trade
of seamanship in any of its branches has
a regular job which is good deal better
than any job he would be likely to hold
on shore, both in the matter Of wages, of
personal comfort, of opportunity for saw
ing, of experience and of ch.nee for pro-
motion.
Just what the opportunities are for
young men In the American merchant
marine to-day is told in simple, straight
forward fashion by Nelson Collins in
Opportunities in Merchant Ships To be
sure not every job on ship is surrounded
by ideal conditions, but young Americans
are not asked to take these mental Jobs,
which are held by Europeans or AsiatieS,
according to Mr.. Collins. Although deal
ing with facts, the author nevertheless
has managed to invest his Little volume
with much of the romance Of tie sIa, while
at the same time giving the youngster who
has the desire IN his heart good advice as
to how to get aboard ship and what he
may expect to be called upon for and to
get after he arrives there

Governor Larrazolo today
called a conference Of state,
county and city officials that
is expected to bring about the
alliance Of the federal and
state legal forces in the fight
against the high cost Of living.
The conference is to be held in
Santa Fe on December 3.
The attorney general, all district
attorneys and mayors Of cities will
be asked to attend and the COVER
nor has been sent word that a rep
resentative of the federal department
of Justice will be present. The gov
ernor also expects to take part in the
conference.
The conference was suggested by
Attorney "A. Mitchell Palmer who
wrote Governor Larrazolo that a
conference in Washington, d. O., of
representatives or state attorney gem
erals had urged more effective Co
operation between federal and state
forces to make the fight against high
foodstuff prices felt. Mr.. Palmer
said he was asking that a similar
conference be called in every state.
The plan was favored by Governor
Larrazolo who indicated his willing
ness to call the conference. The
date, however, was dependent upon
the ability Of the department OF JUS
tice's representative to come to Sam
Ia Fe and the coal strike caused
some delay in making arrangements,
but today a message was received
at the governors office from Wash
ington saying that Mr.. Palmer's rep

the governor and he at once called
the meeting.
Letters were sent TO the district
attorneys, mayors of cities and the
attorney general informing them of
the conference and asking that they
attend.

Washington, Nov. f9-PresIdent
Wilson's letter, addressed to
Senator Hitchcock, and dated yes
terday, follows:
any Dear Senator:
you were good enough to
bring me word that the demo-
cratic senators supporting the
treaty expected to hold a con-
ference before the final votes on
the Lodge resolution Of ratifica-
ton and that they would be glad
to receive a word Of counsel
from me.
II should hesitate to offer 1t
IN any detail but assume that
the senators only desire my
judgment upon the all important
question Of the final vote on the
resolution containing the many
reservations Of Senator Lodge.
On that | cannot hesitate for In
my opinion the resolution in that
form does not provide for rati-
flcation, but rather for the nuIifi-
cation of the treaty. + sincerely
hope that the friends and sup
porters Of the treaty will vote
against the Lodge resolution Of
ratification.
~ trust all true friends Of the
treaty will refuse to support the
Lodge resolution.
u am cordially and sincerely
yours, Woodrow Wilson"

Washington, Nov. ~19,-Scale com
mittees OF bituminous miners and OPP
orators in the central competitive field
went into executive session today to
negotiate a wage econtract, after Fed
eral Fuel Administrator had urged
upon them the necessity for adjusting
their differences and producing the
coal the country needs.
During 1918, he said, $780, 100000
was paid for bituminous coal, the av-
erage price being 1851 per ton. The
production cost was $2.15 per ton, the
miners receiving $750,000,000. or an
average OF $1.50 per ton.
"A total of $230,000, 900 went to the
mines owners, but DR.. Garfield said
this was not all profit as federal I'M
come and excess profits taxes had to
be deducted.
In 1917 DIR. Garfield said, the
taxes amounted to 80 cents a ton aver
age over the whole country. but 1t Is
difficult to estimate for 1872 He
said coal mining was the basic indus
try to win the war, and that reason
able profits had to be maintained. IL
was because a fair return was guar
under the Lever act that CON
gress could not tax away all the mine
owners profits, he said.
President Lewis said the worker
had never alleged that the operators
made undue profits In 1918 under gov

remarks about profits In 191g,n
he said. I'VE are prepared TO prove
that some concerns have sold coal al

AT 3 b. m. the senate still was
engaged in debate on the Lodge
resolution of ratification with no in.

Four prime objections to the Lodge
resolution were raised by Senator
Robinson, the preamble, the Shan.

for withdrawal from the league of

of those present predicted a working
agreement based on a combination
of the Hitchcock and McCumper pro
Iposals, modifying the committee res-
eryations, could be reached.
Senator Hitchcock said the demo-
Gratis were of the belief that the
vote on unqualified ratification should
be taken after, and not before, the
Lodge resolution vas disposed Of.
"a number Of senators are com

Senator Hitchcock added that after
a vote on the Lodge resolution he

Senator Lodge said IL the demo
