SIMS SAYS SUBS
SPARED TROOPS
Mortified by Peril From
Naval Gossip, He Testifies.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-Negligence
by the navy department in protecting
troop transports early in the war was
virtually charged today by Rear Admiral
William S. Sims, resuming his testimony
in the senate naval inquiry.
Sims declared he was "horrihed'' at
the lack of Precautions discovered con
corning troop movements and asserted
that the first transports reached France
safely largely through good luck"
Society women at social gatherings in
Paris knew of troop sailings before
naval officials and Gen. Pershing were
aware Of them, Sims declared.
Sims declared the navy department
used an outworn peace time code even
after he warned that the Germans knew
the key.
Failure to sink many transports was
due largely to the desire of the Ger
mans not to unduly embitter the United
States, Sims thought.

PRICE OF SMOKES SOARING

Cost of smoking gives promise OF
soaring again. All forms of tobacco
have greately advanced in price dur
ing the last few years, and the end
is not yet in sight, judging from sta
tistics available on the rapidly in
creasing demand for smoking, and
chewing tobacco and snuff. Especial
ly is the demand for smoking tobacco
on the increase.
Tobacco growers in Kentucky today
are receiving almost four times as
much money for tobacco as in 1913.
Practically all grades of tobacco are
selling at this rate of advance over
the 1913 price, and bidding for the
crop is spirited. For the second week
of the present tobacco season, Lexing-
ton, KY the biggest loose leaf tobae-
co market in the world, reported an
advance of 1873 percent, as compared
with the corresponding week last
year. Values of tobacco growing
lands are soaring, and the tobacco

grower is experiencing an era of I'M
usual prosperity.
The notable growth in popularity of
the "weed," typical American pro
duet, is attributed largely to a ire
mendous increase in use of cigarets in
the United States, attributable to a
certain extent, no doubt, to the gen
eral and perhaps encouraged use of
eigarets by American soldiers dur
ing the recent war, as well as the
greater export demand resulting from
wider introduction of cigarets by the
American Expeditionary forces into
England, France and Italy, during the
war.
The old-fashioned backwoOds wo-
man, who smoked clay pipe, has
practically passed, but in her place
has come the modern society woman,
who must carry her cigaret case, as
well as her vanity case. Evidence of
the increased number of women Gig
aret smokers is had in the announce
ment of = theater manager in Chicago
that he will build in his theater a
special smoking room for woman, be-
cause women have driven him to it.
He has found women patrons of his
theater smoking in the Mushroom the
boudoir and the lobby. The women
smoke more cigarets than do the mon,
he declared.
Further evidence of the growth in
consumption of tobacco is revealed in
the annual report of the United Cigar
Stores company for 1919, which shows
aggregate sales of 500 ,O3s,OOO. 1t was
the largest year in the company s his
tory and represented an increase over
1918 of $1O,O67OOO.
Indeed, the tobacco habit is growing

INDIAN POPULATION INCREASES

Indians are not being exterminated
by civilization, says an interesting
communication recently issued by the
Indian bureau at Washington. Con-
trary to general belief that Indians
today are far less numerous than in
the days of the settlement of the Eng
fish colonies in America, the Indian
bureau points out that the number of
Indians in the United States today is
practically as large as in the days
when Captain John Smith and his fol
lowers established the first permanent
English settlement in America, at
jamestown, Va, in 1907, or when the
Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, in
1920.
A recent census of the Indian popu-
lation of the country showed a total
of 333,7O2, scattered from the eastern
states to the Pacific coast, and from
the Canadian line to Mexico.
Contrary to general belief that in
the early part of the seventeenth cen
fury, when white men first began to
settle along the Atlantic seaboard, the
woods were swarming with savages,
the Indian bureau asserts that at no
time, it has concluded from research,
did the Indian population greatly ex-
coed what it is today
True, notable decreases in Indian
population were observed as a natural
reaction from contact with civiliza--
ton, but this falling off has been
overcome and during the last fifty
years the race has gained in numbers
and continues to gain. The first cen
sus of the Indian population of the
United State swas taken in 1870, when |
313,712 Indians were enumerated.

HOOVER FOR PRESIDENT

Current reports from the east, mid
die west and far west indicate senti-
ment favoring Herbert Hoover, former
| U. S. food administrator, as a pre-
convention candidate for president of
the United States Hoover's popular
ity is growing, and already has reach
ed a point where "Hoover for Presi-
dent" clubs are being organized.
Born in Cendar county, Ia, of stur-
| dy Quaker parentage, Herbert Hoover,
left an orphan when a small boy, is a
man of his own making. Though to-
day a man of wealth, he was not born
"with a silver spoon in his mouth. 3"
He is typical American, character
istic of the type which has, by his
own ingenuity, risen from obscurity to
notable place in affairs of the ma
ton and of the world. Prior to filling
a public position, Hoover acquired
wealth through mining operations in
the Orient. He is a man of earnest
ness and integrity, unallied with po-
litical dictators or henchmen. His ex-
ecutive ability has been most admir-
ably displayed in his administration of
the food problem in America during
the war, as well as in his work as
head of relief commissions for the
provisioning of stricken districts in
Europe, after the close of the war.
If Hoover becomes candidate for
president, his name would more likely
be placed at The head of the Demo
cratic ticket than on the Republican.
Hoover, an appOintee of President
Wilson, has long been an ardent sup
porter of the president though he is
not hide-bound partisan. He has
voted for Republican candidates for
president, as we'll as for Mr. Wilson. |
Herbert Hoover is a man of under
and of vision, an able execu-
tive, and a man who will command !
the support of members of more than
one political party.
