FOR MOLINE PLAN
OF GRAHAM CAMP

Moline Will have a community
home where all organizations OF
the city may meet and hold enter
tainments, if plans discussed yes
terdaF afternoon by members of the
K. Il Graham post, No. 312, Grand
Army of the Republic, ulaterialize.
The post at first dwelt on the
idea Of erecting a building Tor use
of patriotic organizations only. but
later that proposition was dropped
and the suggestion of building a
home for all community endeayors
was discussed. No plans as to 10
cation. cost, style or other matters
on the building, were discussed 1t
is probable that committees will be
named and arrangements to launch
a campaign be instituted at the next
session Of the post.
A committee was appointed yes
terday to ascertain the correct
number of members of the post who
have given their lives in service so
that the gold stars may be placed
on the service flag. The order is
planning on a reception to be given
TO returned soldiers, but as yet the
plans have taken no definite shape.

ELLIS HELD ON
MONEY CHARGE
constable Bound Over to Grand
Jury on EmbeZZlement Pre-
feTred by McCOrkle-

c. B Ellis, ex-constable of Mo-
line, was bound over to the grand
jury on a charge of embeZzlement
by Justice T. NJ. Wheel0ck yester-
day. THE charge on which Ellis is
held is preferred by Frank Nc
Corkle, who alleges that Ellis en-
bezzled a $50 Liberty bond from
him.
The trouble started over a horse
deal, in which it is claimed that
McCorkle sold the animal to Ellis,
and received in payment of same a
$50 bond. which Ellis claimed Is
worth SAT in exchange. McCorkle
finding that he could get only SAP
for the bond, appealed to Ellis. The
defendant then promised to either
obtain SAT for the bond or to re-
turn the government certificate to
McCOrkIe He failed to do either
Recently Ellis was found guilty,
by a jury, of Illegally Withholding
the bond from McCOrkle and was
ordered to pay the complainant
$47 This. too, it is said, Ellis
failed to do.
The case was originally sched-
uIed to be tried in Magistrate
Frank Gustafson's court. but Ellis
obtained a change of venue to JUS
tice F. c. Entrikin court. At the
preliminary hearing in tnis court.
Il hstic encounter between the de.
PENDANT and Waller McClurg. at
tOrney, insUed, after which Justice
En,riken, feeling that he was pre-
JUDGED, asked that the case be
taken to another court 1t was
then scheduled to be heard before

Why
Suffer
From
Headaches?

Biliousness, sluggish digestion.
Gecaying food-waste in the bowels
is the foundation of nearly all head
aches. This is so easy to avoid that
ii seems foolish to suffer from
headaches.
Simply empty the stomach and
bowels and the cause is gOne-after
that the headache disappears.
Your druggist has product
called SALIN0S. which will com
pletely empty the bowels and the

the lower bowel where most Of the

RUSSIAN REDS"
NOT u. S. TYPE
Boishevism in America Cannot Re
the Same As That in Europe
Says W. C. Knock.

"BoIshevism in the United States
can never be as that terror is in
Russia. Bolshevism is merely kali
serism in another guise," declared
W. C. Knoelk of Davenport in his
talk on "BoIshevism in America, ~
to the Bluff Mems club last even
ing.
Though Bolshevism implies the
meaning of rule by the majority,
it is in fact, nothing but rule by
the unthinking minority" said the
speaker. THE term has been
abused in America. This Red ter
ror in Russia is a small group of
people trying to gain their objec-
tive bv extreme actions. That can
never be done in this country. The
minority is weak, its actions can be
subdued.
Matters of wealth, that is, of
capitalists and the laborers, can be
settled. We must not forget that
the capitalists have their rights as
well as the laborer."
Mr.. Knoelk averred that the cry
ing need in the world today is that
of militant Christianity, so that the
wrongs can be found and corrected.
He upheld the Y NJ. C. A, declaring
that rumors against that organiZa-
lions are the result of personal sell
fishness on the part of the soldier.
And spreading of such rumors, he
said, is the lack of good judgment
in America Heroism does not i'm
ply good Judgment. A soldier can
be brave and at the same time have
poor judgment 1t is through this
lack of common sense, that rumors
spread.
