golden age OF English Industrial and
trade development. a large and profit

developed. A low unit Of cost i'm pro-

growth. Germany, likewise producing

rived from that word familiar to the
cars of men of the Roman Empire:
Constitution; these were rulings or
ordinances on all points, but in this
case. all concerns only political gov
eminent.
Little opportunity is given for
change in the paper, the young Re
public had hung too long on the edge
of chaos. the trainers OF the Supreme
Law of Laws were determined to put
an end to that condition. They plain
ly declared the principles and the or
ganization. that would secure to gen
erations what they had with such diff
ficulty attained.
They declared that there should
be an Executive and listed his pow
ers ard qualifications, that there
should be an Legislative body and
named its powers and qualifications :;
these two they ordered should create
. Judiciary who in turn should pass
upon the justice and legality of their
acts.

D. A. X, had prepared a paper on
the Constitution 10 be read today. but
which will lie read next Wednesday,
instead. The paper follows:
The Proclamation OF Governor
Richie calls upon us today to cele-
brate and acknowledge for the one
hundred and thirty seventh time the
adoption OF that document we name.
the Constitution of the United States
of America.
1t was drawn up in Philadelphia
in 1875. These had been four weeks
OF fruiiless debate: ii seemed as
though after all the bitterness of con-
hict by which the colonies had Sc
cured their separation from English
power. in spite OF all their sufferings,
their labors were in vain and there
was 20 escape from the disorder Of
the time; they were alone TO despair
Of success and dissolve their meeting.
OPEN With Prayer
Then Benjamin Franklin arose
and moved that. they should daily
open their deliberations with prayer,
for. said he, How, if no sparrow
falls to the ground. without His
notice, shall our empire rise From
that day then, they daily invoked the
aid OF the Almighty and their lalor
ceased TO he in vain. and the docu-
ment finally was drawn.

WOMEN FINANcIERS ENTER
 THE NATURAL GAS FIELD

McKeesport, Pa, Jan. 1.-Women inanciers have entered the natural gas field, developed during the past lew months in Snake Hollow almost within the city limits and are drilling their first well. The pioneers were Miss Isabella AIilmore, assistant to the city treasurer, and Miss Irna At water, assistant to the city solicitor.
 They heard so many stories of fortunes being made in the new devel- opment that they found a bit of land not under lease contracted for a der rick. and organized company. Drill ling is to be commenced as soon as the plant is on the ground.
 Development in the Snake Hollow field Is going on with every evidence of the old time wildcat oil and gas boom. Town lots on the edge of the city which three months ago were next to worthless are selling for as much as s1o,0o0 each. and every time new well comes in the price goes up.
 A number Of important wells have been brought in by companies whose business it is to search for and find natural gas. But spectacular and pie turesoue speculation and financing are not lacking. Stories of the suc- cesses or some persons who have be come rich over night have attracted others until the boom has claimed wide attention.

DUDLEY FIELD MALONE AIRS
 HIS VIEWS OF GOVERNMENT

New York, Jan. Dudley Field Malone, former collector of the port, who has been barred from Croton Post of the American Legion because of his radical activities, issued a statement tonight in which he de- clared 'any attempt by the Ameri- can Legion to control opinion by so- cial ostracism will only strengthen the fight for political and industrial change
 My membership in the American Legion was solicited by a naval officer and filed at least six months ago." said the Malone statement. T thought then that members of the legion were organizing to restore that spirit of lib- erty and tolerance in America for which so many of their comrades had died abroad.
 My cpinisns are objected to as radical I have never advocated even form Of our government But I have advocated and shall continue to ,ad- vocate return to the Constitution as it was written and not as it is con stantly pervedted by officials and courts.
 "Our country entered the war not only to destroy German imperialism but for the self determination of all people. And have urged and shall continue to urge the right of the peo- pie of Ireland, India, Egypt and Russia to choose any form of gov ernment that seems to them more suited to their needs.''

Arnliistice By Soviet
 Russia and EstflOniid
Hostilities to Cease For One Week. = This is the First Step Taken Toward Peace.

,Dorpat, Esthonia, Wednesday, Dec. .CBy- the A. EJ4The first step to- ward peace between Esthonia and soviet Russia was. taken tonight by the signing of a preliminary armistice which is to exist for one week, stip ulating an immediate cessation of hostihties and covering questions concerning. Esthonian indpendence and military guarantees with regard to the frontiers.
 The agreement, which may be term mated on twenty-to tour hours notice by either side, is to become effective January 3. Unlss action is taken to terminate it, Ehe. agreement, automat- ically renews itself after sevn days.
 The agreement consists of five documents, and includes map defin inf the frontiers. An interesting clause absofy@A Eisthonia from all obligations to Russia resulting from former connections with that coun- try
 The signing of the agreement had been. set for one o'clock III the after- noon, but it. was not until nearly eight o'clock in the evening that the conferences succeeded in adjusting all details.
 The text of the clause recognizing Esthonia says.
 Tn accordance wit hthe principles oft proclaimed by the soviet Russian gov ernment of the right of all peoples to a free .determinauon of their nation- ality, even to ene complete secession from the State to which they belong, Russia recognizes without reserva- tion the independence of the Esthon- ian state, and freely abdicates for all time all the sovereign rights which belonged to Russia with respect to
 Esthonia's land and people in ac- cordanee with former state orders, as well as those rights given under 1n- ternational treaties. Esthonian land and people shall have no obligations w444l~s~4-- vslt4I respect to Russia be- cause Of the former connections of Esthonia with Russia.
 The agreement stipulates that d,!-ino the cesaa tioa If hostilities the respective armies shall remain on the ter44rcly A-il. U c-lcn and that the land between them shall be considered a neutral zone.
 The frontier is fixed at ten kilo- meters eastward of Lake Peipus, crossing Lake Peipus and Yake Pskov, and running thence southward to the east of Isborsx. The present Es- thonian military fine is left approx imately intact. The frontier settle ment ls regarded as an important Esthonian vtC@ry.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-Raids resulting in the arrest of 200 or more Industrial Workers of the World, communists and other radicals we/4 carried out today under the direction of States Attorney Maclay Hoyne, who tonight in statement attacked Attorney General Palmer for the failure of de partment of. justice agents to coop crate.
