Pacific Coast States are far ahead OF
the older eastern States in utilizing
their. natural resources. Nature has
provided sufficient water power to
practically take care OF the condl-
ton of the West as it exists in refer
ence to population and industry at
this time. Natures supply is not
as bountiful in the eastern States,
and when every available ounce OF
water has been harnessed in water
power, with hydroelectric develop
ment stimulated to its greatest posi-
bility, large part of the demand for
power will still have to be met by the
great use of coal and oil.

PHILADELPHIA Bank Distinctive.

There Is only one national bank In
the United States which does not have
'National" as a part of it's name. 1t
is the Bank of North America. in Phil
adelphia. A special act Of congress is
required to permit a national bank to
operate as such without indicating the
fact that it is national bank IN its
name.

CONSTANTINOPLE
NEEDS MORE HELP
LATEST REPORTS SHOW RELIEF
WORKERS STILL HAVE
GREAT TASK.

Latest reports from Constantinople
show that 1902 individuals are being
aided by 3 Americans, Armenian and
200 volunteer workers. The volun
teers do invaluable work, such as see
ing to it that, the sick child gets to
the Childrens Welfare station. or that
the mother, unable to work on account
OF weakness, gets an examination and
treatment at the American hospital
They also distribute bread. The pres
ent appropriation is barely enough to
give the families now under care the
minimum help. Six Child Welfare
clinics do not accommodate all who
need attention, though native physr
clans cooperate in some parts OF the
city. In others, children go totally un
attended because there are no doctors
or nurses to help them. During every
spare moment the doctors and nurses
make every effort to teach care of the
sick and sanitation in the homes.
Conditions today are much improved
over year ago, but there is still
monumental task before the Near Easi
Relief in that country. In order To
continue things as they are now, more
American nurses are needed, and more
efficient transportation. With expan,
sion of the work, much more help is
necessary.
One OF the tubercular hospitals--a
small one-has 81 cases, "a Jews, sc
Armenians and 81 Greeks.
In still another small hospital, there
are 81 Armenians, "a Greeks and 8
Jews, costing on an average, SO cents
apiece per dar.
In the matter of relief distribution,
there are 11,123 Armenians reached,
1858 Greeks, 671 Turks, 1913 OF other
nationalities, total of 16,980. OF
these, the Armenian Red Cross
reached 4,030
During the past month, the follow
ing supplies were distributed: 100

Members Of Legion Aid
In Fighting Crime Wave.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Dec. 81
Thousands of members of the Ameri-
can Legion are assisting the police
in combating the crime wave which
has engulfed the larger citis all over
the country, according to reports re-
ceived at Legion National Headquar-
tiers here.
In New York, where the orgy of
murder is at its worst, legion state
headquarters promptly offered to
put 5000 veterans on the streets to
aid the police. A number of legion
members have aided in eliminating
hold-ups in the shopping district by
serving as guards in large retail
stores and wholesale houses.
Five hundred legionnaires in St.
Louis are assisting the police in pa
trolling the city and rounding up sus-
picious characters. st. Paul mem.
bers have proposed the formation of
a network of legion patrols, each to
be communicable with others.
The legion's activity does not i'm
ply an imputation that the police are
deficient, legion leaders have pointed
out. Legion members realize that
an abnormal situation exists and. in
conformity with the American Legion
constitution, are preparing to fight
for law and order in every city and
town where the criminal element has
defied the authorities.

Sumter Has Smallpox
Case, But No Danger

Sumter county has one case OF
small pox, according to DR.. b. r
Bond, county health commissioner,
but the case has been isolated, an
contacts vaccinated, and the prems-
es carefully quarantined, so that no
danger of a spread of the infection
is regarded likely.
The case is Doc Miner, negro
tenant, who recently came from Oma-
ha. Ga, and took up residence as a
tenant on the farm of W. S. How
ard on the Hooks Mill road. He was
said to have been exposed to the dis
case when he arrived here, but his
case is said to be very light form.
''There is no danger" said DR..
Bond today, because of the general
practice of vaccination, which gives
the disease no chance except among
those who have neglected to be vac
cinated. These are comparatively
few, and becoming fewer every day. y

Legion And Labor To
See Closer Relations

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-Closer re-
lations between the American Legion
and organized labor are promiesd as
a result of letters exchanged be-
tween F. W. Galbraith, Jr., national
commander of the legion, and Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor.
Mr.. Galbrath's letter defined the
purposes of the legion and empha-

body while in no way infringing ON
the personal freedom of its members
In reply, Mr.. Gompers explained the
effort of the A. F. of L. to make life
brighter for its members and to en-
courage them to perform the obi.
cations they owe to our country and

Mr.. Gompers said that he had aid
