That not only makes it easier for one who has driven off of the road to get back in it, but it prevents the breaking of the edge and the raveling of it.
 At the sides the concrete is nine inches in thickness thus giving addi- tional strength at the point where it is most needed, instead of at the center. where there is less strain on it and where under old methods the greatest strength was given it. In the center the thickness of the concrete is six inches. The width of the roadway is l6 feet. Another advantage of the greater thickness of the concrete at the sides is that it further prevents the entrance of water below the construc- tion.
 An accident happened on one of the tamping machines the other day. The director of it stuck his finger into the machinery and it was cut off clean, above the second joint, hanging only by shred of skin. He tore it off and threw it to the roadside. Let's go!" he cried and holding his hand high in the air started to town for treatment A physician wanted to give him an anasthet1c. He said he did not have time to take it. The wound was dressed and he hurried back to his ma chine. Tn the meantime other workers of the crew had given the discarded finger decent burial. The director again took his place on the machine and the reporter noticed that when he offered instruction by gestures he used the same hand but he held it a little farther away from the machinery.

PARISMINA, EN- ROUTE TO PANA
MA. Nov. Ex-senator Harding's 8
sightseeing and rest cure party today

The Cuban tip had been sighted and
left behind when the party gathered
today for the morning greetings on
deck.
The President-elect and Mrs. Hard

to avoid parades and conferences for
the first time since the beginning OF

mately the halfway point, was
passed yesterday afternoon. The
Senator had arisen at 10 o'clock. Mrs
Harding, who had breakfasted in

deck. Neither were seasick and both
enjoyed the pleasant sensation of glid-
ing swiftly through the smooth seas.
Last night the Senator attended
the orchestra concert. BY hisaspecial
request the musicians played "Barca-
role" and La Paloma."
The President-elect,h having tired OF
the game of shuffleboard, which has

French Scientist Would
Commune With Dead
to End It.
SUCCESS IN ONE CASE
Medium, Told of Theft,

Who Stole Jewel.
SUCCESS IN ONE CASE

PARIS, Nov. 21.-That crime can
be abolished by making 1t impos-
sible for the criminal to go unde-
tected, through the medium of COM
munion with the dead, is the re-
markable claim put forth in Paris
by Gustave Geley, director of the
International Metaphysical Institute
and one Of the worlds best known
authorities on spiritualis.
Madame Robert. wealthy Paris
ienne. called on DIR. Geley one day
last week and said that she had
been robbed Of a diamond brooch
worth $4,000. DR.. Geley suggested
that they consult a medium.
The medium was told of the cir
cumstance and forthwith went into
a trance. wherein she not only gave
the name of the thief--a chamber
maid--but described the exact loca-
tion of the loot. The Information
was given to the police. the cham
bermaid confessed. and every de-
tail of the mediums statement was
proved correct.
As "A result OF the occurrence DR..
Geley believes that any crime can be
similarly solved, provided q medium
OF proper powers is obtainable, and
has suggested that the French po-
lice establish a special metaphysics
department staffer with mediums Of
every nationality and degree of
power.
This done, he says, the detection
OF crime will become so simple that
criminals will become a class ex-
tinct.
The discovery has caused enorous
interest in police and metaphysical
circles throughout the world.

practically every active Sim Fein

"We have glimpsed some of the

JAPAN TREATY
Senator in Arms Against Pro.
posed Pact to Give Aliens
Civil Rights.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nor. 2I.-
Commenting upon press dispatches
dealing Nth the proposed treaty be-
tween Japan and the United States
Senator James d. Pheldn today is.
sued the following statement:
~ JAMES ID. PHELAN,
United states Senator From
California.
Fress dispatches indicate that the
treaty between Japan and the United
states, now being negotiated, will give
japan the right to regulate immigration
into this country of her nationals,
under the guise of self-imposed ex-
clusion. which Is utterly vain and
impracticable, and in consideration
thereof. the Japanese now in Cali
fornia are to be given civil rights.
CIVIL RIGHTS VAGUE.
What "civil rights" embrace is not
specified. but ordinarily 1t would
mean all rights enjoyed by citizens.
Hence the plan seems to be to give
citizenship to the Japanese now in
California, numbering 100000, and
reproducing themselves at a birth
rate per Thousand more than three
times that of the whites, and would
be eight or ten times in case, as they
are trying to do, raey secure the in
PRODUCTION of Japanese women by
crossing the ocean in large numbers
and going through the form Of mar
riage. since the exposure of the 'pic-
ture bride" fraud.
The Belgian hares were introduced
into Australia until, by their rapid
increase, they became destructive
nuisance. There was not enough
food to maintain them. They crowded
out all other form Of animal life.
Now IL a treaty were negotiated be-
tween Belgium and Australia to bar
the introduction of any more rabbits,
but to grant the right of increase Of
those already there, it would be no
restriction Of the rabbit traffic at all.

Public Health Service.

The United States Public Health
Service urgently needs $500 more
beds for tuberculous patients. $500
more beds for mental and nervous
cases, and 300 more beds for gen.
eral medical and surgical cases.
In tho near future the Government
will need $4,000 peds for the care
OF suffering men and women who did
their bit in the American military
and naval forces.
Only the other day more than half
of the war victims were being cared
for outside OF Government hospitals
being done by proxy.
There were 104sI Public Health
Service cases in strange hands. Some
were in State insane hospitalss some
in poorhouses, some in the Easements
Of private sanitariums. All were fed
and treated on a contract basis.
tuberculosis claimed 3,641; mental
and nervous disorders, 3,612, and gen.
eral medical and surgical troubles,
3,22S.
More than a year ago this condi-
tion was predicted by the then sur
geon- general of the Public Health
Service, Rupert Blue. A little later
tho probability was brought forcibly
TO the attention Of the Secretary OF
the treasury py Col. w. =. Rucker,
until recently medical adviser Of the
War Risk Insurance Bureau.
Only recently has anything tangi
BILE been done. The best moves were
the taking over of soldiers homes by
the director of the War Risk Bureau,
the organizing of medical staffs for
two OF them, and his not being averse

the surgeon general Of the Public
Health Service to operate,

erect and equip suitable hospitals

should be an appropriation of S1O,-
0O0,0 900 for 5000 beds, about one
seventh OF the ultimate number re-
quired.
General Blue said the Public
Health Service would have to be re-
sponsible for the medical care Of all

the army and navy had declared they
did not contemplate doing anything
for them.

|POPE WOULD SHUT
|D0WN MONTE CARLO
Pontiff Will Ask Prince oil
Monaco to Close Gambling
Resort.

ROME, Nov. c1.-Pope Benedict XIV
Is preparing to ask the Prince of
Monaco to close up Monte Carlo, the
greatest gambling resort the world
has ever known. That the pontiff
plans this step in a great crusade
against immortality throughout the
whole world became known today.
Diplomatic relations have been re-
newed between tthe Vatican and the
little principality Of Monaco after an
interruption of eight years. and Al. DE
Fontarce has arrived here with his
credentials to represent the Prince Of
Monaco at the Holy See.
Vatican circles regard the resump-
ton of diplomatic relations with the
principality OF Monaco as a develop
ment OF great Importance. despite
the fact that the principality consists
of only eight separate miles of terri
tory. containing the Casino, some
luxurious hotels, park and the
princes palace.
Pope Benedict XIV has long been
anxious to do away with gambling
ut Monte Carlo, but he could not
approach the Prince Of Monaco di-
rectly so long as relations between
the Vatican and the principality were
broken. The pontiff holds that the
gambling at Monte Carlo is a source
of immortality to both men and
women and an appalling waste Of
money and human life. There Is little
likelihood, however, that the pontiff's
request will meet with success, no
matter how urgent 1t may be made.
