HUNGER STRIKERS
FED LIKE INFANTS
DOCTORS THINK THEY WILL BE
ABLE TO SAVE LIVES OF THE
NINE MEN IN CORK PRISON.

CORK.-"Not out of danger, but
there is no reason why we should not
null them through" said the Jail doc
tors in a report on the condition of
the nine hunger strikes in Cork jail,
who yesterday broke their fast OF
ninety-four days.
Every three hours the prisoners are
given liquid nourishment. This diet
will be continued until Monday, when
the first solid food in the shape OF
boiled fish, prepared with milk, will
be served them. With one exception
they were able to read the newspapers
this morning. All of them drank
large quantities of very sweet lemon
ade with much enjoyment. Their first
food yesterday was such as is given
to infants less than six months old.
Both DR.. Pearson and Dr. BATHS
combe, the prison physicians, think 1t
NAV be two or three months before
they will regain their strength and
that it will probably be year before
they are normal. They are counting
on the beneficial influence of the pris-
oners' changed state of mind to has
ten recovery.
The emaciation of the prisoners IS
so bad that, according to the doctors,
it is possible TO encircle their ankles
with the first finger and thumb.

"A GREAT ARMY OF
WORKERS ARE IDLE
HALF MILLION MEN JOBLESS AS
INDUSTRIAL PLANTS CLOSE.
BUYERS STAGING STRIKE.

More than 100000 workers have
been thrown out of employment by the
closing of factories and curtailed in
dustrial operations in the United
States since spring, according to esti-
mates made in Washington by gov
eminent officials. Industrial experts
declare, however, that the number of
iobless is more than 100000; some
estimates even place the number as
high as 100000.
Big Buyers on Strike
The closing of factories, resulting
in hundreds of thousands Of workers
being thrown out of employment, is
due entirely to the nationwide strike
of buyers which still is in full swing,
according to government officials.
Other contributing causes are the
tight money market, liquidation of
"frozen" loans forced by the banks,
and the flood of immigration now
reaching this country at the rate OF
100000 persons year.

THOUGHTLESS USE
OF FIRE In WOODS
CAUSES LOSS OF $25,OOO,OOO
WORTH OF TIMBER IN UNI
TED STATES EVERY YEAR.

More than s25,00O,O00 worth of
standing timber in the United States
is destroyed by forest fires each year
according to estimates made by the
Forest Service. This represents a
serious loss to the country, particular
ly at present when the nation is using
up it's resources of timber four times
as fast as it is grown, and as con-
sequence is facing a depletion of its
forests.
The Forest Service is .endeavoring
to impress upon the public the danger
that results from dropping lighted
match, pipe coal or lighted cigar
cite or cigar stump in or near a wood
Hunters, fishermen, and woods work
ers of all kinds smoke in the forests,
and automobiles carelessly toss bits
of fire from their cars and speed
thoughtlessly onward, unmindful OF
the possible source of conflagration
they have left behind them. A single
! glowing cigarette end may cost the
government thousands of dollars for
i fire fighting to say nothing of the tim
Der destroyed, the desolation of scenic
beauty, and the harm done to water
sheds. In protecting the national for
tests of more than 150,000,000 acres
the department of agriculture has to
fight thousands of forest fires every
summer due to carelessness.

CALIFORNIA ALIEN
LAW Anglers JAPS
HARDING'S ELECTION A DISAP-
POINTMENT. WILL PRESS Ne
EQUATIONS WITH WILSON.

A protest of the Japanese govern
ment against the anti-alien land legis-
lation lust passed in California by the
referendum is to be expected soon, ac-
cording to the reports from Toxic.
Believing Harding to be more unsym-
pathetic toward the japanese cause
than President Wilson, it is probable
that an aggressive move will be made
to secure relief before the present &d-
ministration at Washington leaves Of
flee.
Toxic holds the recent legislation a
more open affront and discrimination
against the japanese than any pre-
yious enactment. Japan's protes5 will
be based on the stand that the legisla-
ton violates existing Japanese-Ameri-
can treaties, contravening the most
favored nation" clauses in withholding
from aliens of japanese blood the
rights enjoyed by the aliens of other
races.
The news from California was re-
ceiyed in Japan with no demonstra-
tions. although they are expected to
come, later, at a time best calculated
to support the governments protest.
The tone of press comment on the
election is generally moderate.
The Harding victory brought disap-
pointment generally in Japan, for the
Japanese consider it severe blow to
their hopes of obtaining a favorable
settlement Of American issues, and to
the League of Nations. "Jingo" news
papers in Japan generally are bitter
IN their denunciation of the new law.

.DRYS" WILL CONTROL
THE NEXT CONGRESS
Elected More Than 300 Supporters in
Recent BaIIOting, and Four DRY

The Sixty Seventh Congress will by
no means be a menace to the Volstead
prohibition enforcement law. An
analysis of the recent. congressional
elections shows "drys" will have more
than 800 supporters in the new house.
The senate also will be dry"
The Methodist Board of Temperance
and Public Morals sums up the sltua-
ton as follows:
The Volstead act was passed IN the
house by a vote of 2S7 to 100. OF the
287 members who supported the law
231 were candidates for reelection.
of the 291 only II are known to have
been defeated and at least 210 are sure
of reelection. Of the 100 members
who supported the "wet" cause "a
were candidates for reelection, and OF
these IL were defeated and 49 re-
elected.
Five "dry' senator's were defeated,
but it is tn opinion of the board that
at least four of the successors are for
prohibition.

CHARGE PERSHlNG
WITH FAVORITISM
NEW LISTS OF PROMOTIONS
BRING ALLEGATIONS OF A
SYSTEM OF TRADING"

WASHINGTON, D. C.-When con-
ress meets in December the senate
probably will be called upon to deal
with considerable conflict of opinion
by certain prominent officers of the
United States Army and their friends,
over the new regular army promo
tions, which will be sent in by Presi-
dent Wilson for confirmation.
Approximately $4,000 army promo
lions and transfers will be involved,
of which 5000 represent new appoint
ments to fill new positions created by
the army reorganization act of June A,
1920, while the rest involve promo
lions based upon these new appoint
ments and transfers from one arm of
the service to another or shifts be-
tween the line and the staff. The
Icenter of the controversy will be the
appointment of thirty-four new gen.
eral officers of the army all chosen by
selection and in the naming it is al
legged that number of well known
older officers of the army have been
jumped by younger officers.
Favoritism Is Charged.
Il is charged that Gen. John j.
/ Pershing, who was chairman of the
special board which selected the Off
GERS promoted to be major generals
and brigadier generals, had taken ad
vantage of his Craftsmanship of thai
board to provide for the promotion OF
certain younger officers who were the
! favorites of the commander-in-chle1
I of the American Expeditionary Forces
while in France.
1t is also alleged that where So
called favorites of General Pershing
were not chosen the cream of the pro-
motions into the ranks of permanent
general officers went to favorites OF
Mai. Gen. Peyton C. March, chief OF
staff of the army.
another allegation is that by some
System of trading" between Generals
IPcrshing and March several of the
latter's principal subordinates find
their names in the list of new general
officers, but this accusation is vigor-
ously repudiated by their friends.
In the fight over combinations OF
general officers it will be alleged that
through the promotions General Per
shing is seeking to obtain and perpet-
uate a certain degree of personal con-
troll over the army. Friends of Cen
eral Pershing assert in his defense
that the younger officers who have
been promoted over the heads of older
officers were selected on the basis OF
extraordinary service in the war.

STIR UP FUSS
ABOUT THE LEAGUE
WOMEN OF ZURICH WILL BE ON
HAND AT GENEVA WITH
MANY DEMANDS

PARASITIC women of Zurich are
preparing to stir up peck of trou-
bic for the league Of nations during
the first general assembly of that or
ganization at Geneva.
The Central Woman's Club of Eur
ich has decided to appeal direct to the
league to settle the question of the
use of negro troops in occupied zone
along the Rhine.
No secret is made of the fact that
in this appeal the women of Zurich
will be supporting the point OF view
of Germany in the matter.
Practically ever since the armistice,
Germany has protested wildly against
the use by the French of their colored
colonial troops in holding down the
Rhine bridgeheads.
The French point of view is that by
the use of these colored troops who are
of little value for anything else,
France is able to release from mill
tary service just that many more OF
her own white citizens who are more
valuable to their country at the pres
ent moment in building up her indus
tries and restoring her productivity.
Germany claims that the presence
of these African troops in her terri
tory is a direct insult. She resents
especially their occupation Of build
ings, squares and quarters that are
full of historic souvenirs of Germany's
civilization.
The decision of the Zurich women
to appeal directly to the league, while
presumably highly grateful to Ger
many, has already stirred up hor-
nets nest.

PRESIDENTS HEALTH
STILL CAUSES CONCERN
ALTHOUGH PROGRESS TOWARD
RECOVERY is BEING MADE
GREAT PROBATION is TAKEN.
A RELAPSE is FEARED

One Hour a Day. Cannot Walk,
and Face Bears Deep Traces of
Suffering. Has Grown Stouter.
Observation-Disclosures Presi-
dent Wilson has made considerable
progress toward recovery his health
lis still matter of grave concern to
his physicians and members of his
family.
The utmost care is being exercised
to guard against relapse, which
might be caused by a sudden physical
jar or undue mental exertion His
transaction of public business is linn
tied to one hour day and at cabi-
net meetings his official advisers still
carefully retain from broaching con-
troversial subjects which might excite
him unduly.
If his condition should take no turn
for the worse the president is ex-
pected to be able to finish his term of
office without relinquishing discharge
of his official duties. Whether, how
ever, he will be able to accompany the
president elect to the capital for the
inauguration on March A, as has every
president save John Adams, is prob
lematical.
Mr.. Wilson is looking forward with
relief to his retirement from office and
hoping that he will regain his strength
sufficiently to write a history of his
administration and of the war and the
peace conference.
From lack of exercise the president
has grown stouter. He now weighs
IT'S pounds. His hair is white and
his features bear deep traces of his
physical suffering. His physician,
Admiral Grayson, Mrs. Wilson and an
army nurse are IN constnat attendance
upon him. Once and sometimes twice
a day he is massaged by masseur.
Mr.. Wilson generally rises at Z
O'Clock, is shaved by colored servant
and breakfasts at 5. From to III
he works in his study, assisted by Mrs.
Wilson, examining papers referred to
him, debating instructions and letters
and penciling notes to Secretary Tu-
multy. The amount of official bust
ness laid before the president has been
reduced to the absolute minimum. For
more than year the government has
been administered as closely to routine
as possible, few departures and i'm,
provements requiring the authority OF
the president being proposed.
From 10 to IL a. m. on pleasant anc
mild days the president sits in his
wheel chair on the south portico. He
is invariably wheeled about the house
as he can not walk unaided. During
this hour out Of doors Mrs. Wilson
reads to the president and sometimes
he reads to her.

LEAGUE BILL FOR
CIGARS AT SPA

PARASITIC Belgian govern
ment has just presented to the
League of Nations bill for cigars
amounting to $4,000 francs. The
bill says, "These cigars were smok-
ed or carried off by members of
the various delegations at the Spa
Conference"
That conference was held in July
and was attended by members of
the supreme council and represen-
tatives of the German government.
The secretariat of the league of
nations has announced that it is
short of money and moreover it re-
fuses to take over the debts of the
supreme council.
The Belgian government argues
that the Spa conference formed
part of the Operations" of the
league of nations.
The bill remains unpaid.
