COPS ASK RAISE
Topeka Police Give Up Trying
to Live on 500.
Petition To Be Presented to
Commissioners Soon.

With writer's on economics setting
out cold figures to show that a mar
ried man in city con just get by
on $125 a month. Topeka policemen
average 500 a month and a big per-
centage of them are married men with
families.
Today, police officers were circulat-
ing a petition asking the city commits
sioners to increase their salaries. 1t is
pointed out in the petition that a ma
jority of the policemen are forced to
rent homes. that rentals are jumping
and the cost of living is showing no
inclination to toboggan.
An effort of the Topeka policemen
to unionize was frustrated thru the
displeasure of a public appalled, at the
atrocities of the Boston policemen s
strike, However. a slight increase in
wages was permitted by the city COM
mission and prior to the agitation for
a union, the city commission reduced
the working hours per day from twelve
to eight hours.

j, sas State Farm bureau, the Extension

r lege and the Kansas Labor depart

These three organizations will fur

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

/. If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkaH. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless). is much better than
anything else you can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly injure
the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich. creamy lather. and 'cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves 1t fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap. and few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the family
for months.-Adv.

Gave Half Million to Wood
Now BIames Old Guard.
Now Not Even Sure He Will
Support Harding.

Cincinnati. o.. June 15.-William
Cooper Proctor, millionaire soap
manufacturer and admitted contribu-
tor of 100000 to Gen. Leonard
Woods presidential nomination cam
paign. here today issued a statement
flaying the ''old guard" and Nicholas
Murray Butler, New York, for Wood s
defeat.
Proctor was particularly incensed
at Butler for the latter's alleged state
ment that Woods campaign was
backed by financial gamblers"
That statement is maliciously
false" said Proctor. NO contribu-
tons were made the General Woods
campaign besides those 1 mentioned in
my testimony before the United States
Investigating committee.
Doctor Butler is trying to square
the old guard for what they did to
Wood.
Harry Daugherty, Warren G. Hard
ings manager. was a good prophet
when he said that the candidate would
be nominated at 2:11 o'clock in the
morning before the delegates actually
voted on the nomination. That is the
way General Wood was defeated
Proctor said.
Proctor was asked whether he
would support Harding for the presi-
dency.
II cannot say what I will do at
Oresent" he said

DEMANDS FIFTH OF ESTATE
Child by Second Husband Claims
Money Left by First Husband.

The rights of a child by a second
husband to participate in money left
by the first husband was argued today
before Probate Judge Ralph H. Cav
by w. A. S. Bird, representing the
Kansas Children's Home society.
In 1912, P. ]. Lungstrum was killed
in an accident in the Santa Fe yards
and his widow obtained a judgment of
$1,000 against the railroad company.
She had four children by Lungstrurn.
Later, she married second time and
had a child by her second husband.
She died recently and left the $4,000
intact. The child by the second hus-
band has been adopted by a family
living outside the state and thru the
Kansas Children's Home society is de-
handing a fifth of the $4,000 left by
the mother. Sen. w. F. Schoch is rep
resenting the four children by the
first husband, who contend the $4,000
rightfully belongs to them for distri-

Il lag Lay 6ACTClSCS aG INDUSTRIAL
School Surprising Feature.
Topeka women who saw the flag
day exercises Monday at the Boys In
dustrial school are going into positive
ecstacieS over the boys at the institu-
ton.
The ensemble singing was the fea-
ture that took with the women. There
was a tiny negro boy with an excep-
tional musical voice. His head was
large and his mouth was almost
larger. Throwing back his head, he
opened wide his mouth full of gleam-
ing white, and sang as if pour
ing fourth the innate joy of childhood
that might ordinarily be stifled in a
place like the institution.
Where did you learn to sing like
that, boy?" asked an interested woman.
The lad hung his head for an instant,
shuffled his feet uncasily, and said.
well, learned a little in school. But
mostly just always did know how to
sing
The musical program included:
pal of Mine" Beautiful Ohio" by
the school; Angelina" a song by
Floyd Evans, who accompanied him
self on the guitar; Weeping Willow
Lane" by Gercher. Larrose, and
Evans; Taps" sung by the school;
a battalion drill, the 130th field artil-
lery song. and the flag presentation.
Each boy in the school was presented
with a silk American flag.

COUNTY POLITICS TONIGHT.
Democrats and Republicans in Plan:
for Campaign.


A night o. county politics will be
staged tonight by Shawnee County
Democratic and Republican politi-
clans.
The Democrats must face the task
of drafting u county ticket at an old
fashioned mass meeting to be held at
the Grand theater at o'clock. Music
by Marshalls band will be used to
put courage into the hearts of Demo-
names printed on county ballots for
the primaries and the election.
Then, there will be a plea to party
loyalty by Dudley Doolittle. ex-con-
gresham, and Forrest Luther of Cim-
AKRON, state chairman. Prior to the
mass meeting which will open
promptly at 8 o'clock sharp. the Dem
ocratic central committee will meet at
the Elks club at o'clock.
Getting candidates is no part of the
trouble of Fred Shellabarger, chair
man of the Republican county COM
mittee. In fact Shellabarger is frank
10 admi. there are too burned" many
to keep them all in a good humor.
And it is in answer to repeated de-
mands of timogous candidates that the
Republican organizations speed up
and do everything possible to get the
full quota of voters to register that
the Shawnee county Republican club
is holding a meeting tonight at s
o'clock at 618 Kansas avenue.
MANY of the candidates feel that
there will be someone defeated at the
primaries because their friends who
would vote for them did not register"
doubt. that will be true unless we can
do something to get the voters to the
registration booths before July %,
when the books close"

POPCORN PROFITEERING
Editor The state Journal:

Editor The State Journal:
Ny kiddo likes popcorn-and so do
]. This last week, l went to one of
the local grocers and purchased a
pound of shelled popcorn and paid 20
cents for it. Sunday while on a farm
near Silver Lake l purchased ten
pounds of the very same grade pop
corn and the farmer sold it to me for
10 cents per pound. saying that was
the price he had sold a lot of it to a
Topeka grocer. When questioned the
former mentioned the name of the
same grocer from whom 1 had pur-
chased the first pound of the grain.
1t seems to me that 10 cents per
pound is a pretty high price for pop
corn, but to pay 20 is an outrage,
especially when 10 cents of the 20 is
profit. OF course the grocer will say
that he has to figure in that ever
present overhead" but never yet
have I heard anyone say that over
head" amounted to anything like 100
per cent. No wonder the farmers are
disguised and are planting their fields
to alfalfa instead of wheat. potatoes
and other articles. If I was engaged
in producing the food of the country
] would do even worse. I'D quite alto
gether. p. d kEILMANN.

Property Owners on Avenue Want II

Lowered, Quincy ResldehtS Don l.
Arguments for and against the
proposed lowering of the alley be-

street and Tenth and Eleventh streets
were heard this morning by the city
commissioners at their regular meet

Several Kansas avenue business men
protested that the alley in it's present

business houses If the paving is done
without lowering the alley level. This,
they claim, will damage their prop

Residents of Quincy street, on the
opposite side of the alley, declare that
II the alley is lowered, it will leave
them so high in the air that they
cannot get into their garages with
their cars. There is no way to get in
from the front. they said. They con-
tended that this would greatly dam
age their property The matter will
