Indians Part in the War.
Probably nothing IS of greater inter-
est in the report than the chronicle
Of the part the Indians played in the
war, and the benefit military service
has proved TO them. So noteworthy
has this been that the heading given
to this section of the report is "War
as q Civilizer" probably nothing
more helpful has come to this ancient
race" it reads. than the enrolment
of 10000 of its sons simply as Ameri-
can soldiers to challenge the barbarous
rule of central Europe. The immedi-
ate benefit comes from the equal OPP
portunity they had with their white
comrades for gaining knowledge, for
maturing judgment for developing
courage through contact with events
and conditions"
Numerous Indians won medals and
recognition for distinguished service
abroad. Their citations rank them
with the bravest of the brave. The
most striking is that of Private Joseph
Oklahombi. full-blOod Choctaw, COM
pany D. One Hundred and Forty-first
infantry, Bismarck, Oklahoma. His CT
tation reads as follows:
"Under violent barrage, Private
Oklahombi dashed to the attack of an
enemy position, covering about 210
yards through barbed-wire entangle-
ments. He rushed on machine gun
nests. capturing III prisoners. He
stormed strongly held position con-
tanning more than so machine guns and
a number of trench mortars. Turned
the captured guns on the enemy and
held the position four days In spite of
a constant barrage of large projectiles
and of gas shells. Crossed No Mans
land many times to get information
concerning the enemy. and to assist his
wounded comrades"
Progress In Education.
Satisfactory progress is being made
In the matter of education. The policy
of encouraging Indian children to
attend the state public schools, the fed
eral government paying the tuition
therefor. is growing in favor. Any
prejudice on the part of white MEM
bers Of the schools against the Indian
is rapidly disappearing. The educa-
tional program that is now under
way is TO provide for Indian childrens
attendance at public schools wherever
the facilities are available and main
tain special reservation schools only
where the facilities are not adequate.
Industrial education is receiving
large attention, an impetus having been
given It by the war. According to the
reports OF various superintendent. the
Indian soldiers have returned with q
greater self-confidence. an ambition to
engage In useful occupations and a
desire to fulfil the obligations to
country by living up to all the require
ments of citizenship. Agriculture is
being encouraged and trade schools es-
tablIshed. Health conditions are re-
ported satisfactorily improved. with
the exception of the inroads made by
the Influenza.

HAS new WORLD
MAP FOR FLYERS
Globe Girdling AviatorS to Use
Butterfly Chart instead
of Mercator'S
DEVISED BY CALIFORNIA MAN
Aviator Using Mercator Projection
Would Go 1000 Miles Out of His
Way in Trip From Panama to Yo-
kohama, Says inventor of Map.

San Francisco. Cal.-Flyers in the
proposed 1920 world girdling air derby
will not travel by Mercator's projec-
ton, but by new butterfly" map,
devised by j. S. Cahill of Oakland,
Cal. which has just been adopted by
Maj. Charles j. Glidden, executive
secretary of the aerial derby commits
sion, now on his way to the far East,
and who gave the map his approval
before leaving here.
Mr.. Cahill, who is the originator OF
San Francisco's $12.000,000 "civic CEN
ter" plan, said that an aviator using
the Mercator projection as a guide,
would go 1000 miles out of his way
in a trip from Panama to Yokohama.
If the north pole were on an island
a mile WIDE" he said. ''it would ap-
pear on Mereator's projection to be
$4,000 miles wide, or nearly the total
circumference of the earth at the
equator"
Advances "RationaI Geography"
The inventor of the new map. who
D.
said that IAN impartial and rational
world geography is essential to world
peace" He said that Mercator's pro-
lection, which was originally devised
by the Belgian photographer as
guide for navigators. distorted and
exaggerated the earth as it re-
coded from the equator" This, for
instance, made it appear as if South
America were much smaller than
North America, when as matter OF
fact, he said, they were about the
same area.
The Cahill map is as though an ac-
tual sphere had been cut and flattened,
its appearance somewhat resembling
the out-spread wings of butterfly.
A nation looking unduly expanded
on the map may easily, Mr.. CahilI
says, develop a sort of geographical
big headedness." inducing an over
bearing diplomacy. A nation whose
territory is so unduly exaggerated on
the maps in common use may well
come to exaggerate its resources, it's
economic strength and even its vir-
tues, and so create an atmosphere any
thing but conducive to mutual good
will and consequent world peace.
Butterfly" Map Simple.
All problems Of ntercommunication
by sea, land or air are battling and
misleading on Mercator's chart, says
Mr.. Cahill, but simple and obvious on
the butterfly" map, a further aid to
mutual knowledge and understanding.
"Internationalsm, now a sporadic
and occasional thing, but destined In
the future to be the keynote of all
human endeav0r, plays an important
part In the science of statistics and
meteorology," said Mr.. Cahill.
Graphical statistics are self-con-

chart, and as for indicating the prog

In weather charts, the eyer changing
scale on Mercator's was simply bewil-
dering to the forecaster who had to
use them"
The new map. by showing all lands
in their true proportion and form, he
declares, would help materially in
solving peacefully problems dealing
with the world as a whole.

 The statements credited to John son and to which Frazee took exec D. tion were:
 The league had always resorted tC the ballot instead of using the usual rotation method of the election of the board of directors when it was found the rotation method wCuld bring an undesirable member to the board" and "it was the sentiment that two members be not brought into the di- rectorate as they attempted to wreck the American league"

 If you have any sense of justice or realization of the harm you have caused baseball, or had one spark of manhood. or any regard for the game which has made you possible, you would tender your resignation as president of the American league be fore causing any further harm. If you wish to go into any discussion. either privately or publicly. of our relations since my connection with the Ameri- can league in 1916, l will be pleased to meet you at any time or place you mention.

STATE MAY GET . 2 2CONSRESSMEN N UNDER FEW LAM

PHOENIX, Dec. 23.-Arizona will in all probability be represented in congress by two representatives in stead of one when the new apportion- ment based on the 1920 census is made by congress. This is the opin- ion of Chas R. Howe. state tax con- missioner, who calls attention to the fact that the latest census figures give Arizona population of 333.200. In discussing the probabilities Howe said:
 ''The present appcrtionment is one representative to every 211 900 or major fraction theerof Under this arrangement Arizona would be en- titled to two legislative districts and two congressman. With every new census it has always been a problem with congress as to what unit of pop ulatiCn should be used and with every new allotment figure the mem brship of the lower house has been increased
 If the same unit of 211 ,000 is to be used, the membership of the house, which is already considered un- wieldy, will be increased by 50 to 60 members. In all probability the unit figure for the districts will have to be increased to take care of the sit uation. though the history of the mat ter has been that these unit figures are increased very slightly with each successive increase in popula- tion In other words. there has been 1; g natural inclination on the part of congressman not to vote in favor of any proposition which would de- crease the number of congressman from their particular state.
 "In view of this it is hardly likely that the unit figure will be increased to more than 10000 and this figure has been named as a logical com promise in the present situation. If this goes through Arizona would still have enough population to justify two representatives and two districts would have to be formed Whether the state would be divided by a north and south line or by one running east and west or by a zigzag line from one corner to the other would have to be decided by those entrusted with solving the problem of dividing the state into two portions in which the population would be capitalized" So extensively does powdered ami nal horn enter into native remedies in China that medicine factories
