KANE RESIGNS; OUT
OF SYMPATHY WITH
COMMUNIST RAIDS


PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 80 Francis
Fisher Kane. United States attorney for
Eastern Pennsylvania. who rendered his
resignation yesterday did ST., he said to-
day, for n principle.
In his letter TO the president he said:
IL am obliged to take this step be-
cause feel out of sympathy with the
anti-radical policies q Mr. Palmer and
his methods OF carrying them out"
Mr. Kane also sent 4 letter to Attor-
ncy General Palmer outlining his views
on the treatment Of so-callcd radicals.
lie protested against tie contemplated
communist party raids. but the attorney
general wrote he was too late.
Mr.. Kane disaErecs with MIR. Palmers
statement that there does not seem To
lie any question of policy involved in
the raids.
AS read the manifcstOs Of tho COM
munist party" he wrote. 1t does does
not expressly stand for the overthrow
OF this government by force, and it Is
surely II question of policy. not one OF
law. whether the department of justice
should take the initiative and cause
raids against the alien members OF the
party.
1T Is one thing to dchar an alien
coming into tins country Ivy administra-
tive methods. but it is quite another
thing to deprive II man who has been IN
the country a long time. and who per-
haps has wife and children here. OF
what we ar" accustomed 10 think OF as
conSt tutional rights.
III the present raids We appear to be
attempting to rcpress n political party.
1t has platform most Of which is

so much l grant you but 1t calls it
self political party and holds open
meetings and discussions. Consequently
we ought not To raid it unless We are
absolutely competed 10 do so in order 10
enforce the law. for by such methods.
We will drive under ground and make
dangerous what was not dangerous be-
fore. Is il necessary to protect our
American workingmen and the vast
number Of steady, law abiding foreign
born workmcn from the influence of
handful of Russians and Russian Jews
m T0ve with The Soviet form Of govern
mcnt? TO my mind such protection is
entirely unnecessary.
"Munition manufacturers and many
other persons made rich by the war arc
seeking to dodge the prime importance.
There are also fraudulent contractors
and there are, rs you know, corrupt
government agents using their Offices
for Illicit gain. The punishment Of
these people is infinitely more important
than the pursuit Of the radicals.

PORTUGAL NOT BOTHERED
WITH SOCIAL UNREST
People Enjoy Life in Simple Way
Despite the Labor
Troubles.

Portugal, in spite of all the lurid re-
ports spread abroad by interested par.
ties, Is at the present moment of so
cial and economical troubles no worse
Off than other countries which par
ticipated in the great war.
When one drives through Lisbon
and her suburbs on a Sunday and
watches the happy crowds holiday
making after the weeks work, the i'm
preston gained is that it would be
difficult to find in any country such
contented and light-hearted people
as the Portuguese.
Unless some means of conveyance
be previously engaged, walking is the
only method of locomotion available
on that day, for trains, motorcars, car
riages. carts and omnibuses are all
hired or seats booked in advance.
Even the street cars are filled to over
flowing by workmen and their fam
lilies going to the outlying districts.
smilngly bearing with them their pic
mic baskets.
The leafy avenues just outside the
city are filled with people afoot, sing
ing popular songs from the latest re-
vues or exchanging merry jests with
the people in the conveyances.
Outside and inside the railroad sta
tons from early morning are filled
/. with people Of the more wealthy,
working and professional classes try
ing to obtain accommodations for a
trip either to Cintra, Cascaes or the
Estoril, the beautiful Riviera of Port
ugal
1t is true that besides all this mer-
rymaking there is social unrest in
Portugal. Strikes are frequent, but
generally peaceable; there is an oc-
casional bomb and sometimes street
riot, but bolshevik revolution there is
none. When three br0mbs were
thrown recently into the ranks of a
popular demonstration of gratitude to
the government for taking measures
to lower the prices of fOodstuffs, most
of the demonstrators carried Oh as
though nothing had happened. The
bomb throwers were arrested. That
was all. Amusements went on as usu-
al, with little excitement.

FRENCH FIND HUGE GRAFT
Buyers of Army Supplies Discover
Cases Full of Baby Clothing

Astounding revelations of graft,
mounting into millions of dollars in
supplies shipped to the American
forces overseas during the war have
just been made in taking an inventory
on goods bought by the French from
the United States.
A full mile of cases marked BOTTLES
of ink" or canned food" were found
to be camouflaged, only the top layer
Of each containing cans of food or
bottles of ink. The rest Of the cans
or bottles were empty.
More than $4,000 cases Of baby un-
derwear, baby socks and baby bonnets
were found, and the French are won
dering what the Americans intended
these for. Hundreds Of thousands of
pairs of "woolen" underclothes were
found to be cotton of the poorest
quality, while vast number Of cases
designated as containing clothing were
either empty or filled with tumble
Of material in the worst possible con-
ditiOn.
It Is estimated that 1t will take
more than five years to sell the stocks
piled up at the Gievros depot alone.
Meanwhile, due to the insufficiency
Of stats to handle the stocks, millions
Of dollars worth Of supplies are rust
ing and spelling.

Grading Fields
Is An Aid To
Bigger Profit

When a farmer orders a box of
he does not expect to find a thin
layer of the bolts specified on the
top of the box and assorted bolts
underneath. In the world of COM
merce manufacturer who pursued
such practices would soon be bank
rupt.
The same principle applies to the
sale of farm products, say the spe-
cialists of the bureau of markets,
United tates department of agricul-
ture. Before sending produce to
the market the farmer should sort
1t as to quality and size. The bu-
reau of markets from time to time
has recommended grade specifica-
lions for variaus products, and,
wherever these recommendation
have been followed satisfaction and
increased monetary returns have gen.
orally resulted. For instance, it is
estimated that in 1919 the potato
growers in Virginia increased their
profit half million dollars by grad
ing their produce. Similar results
are being obtained in other states.

EUGENE NOW READS
Former Empress Submits to Operation
for Cataract.

Former Empress Eugene of France
Is able to see much better than for
years past, thanks to an operation for
cataract performed since her arrival
in Madrid, where she Is the guest of
her nephew, the duke Of Alba. Despite
her ninety-four years, the former en-
press consented to undergo the opera
ton performed by DR.. Jacinto Barra-
quer, Barcelona oculist, who invent
ed an instrument for cataract removal.
The frailty of Eugene permitted the
use of only q local anesthetic. The
surgeon made a slight incision in the
cataract, applied cocaine, and then the
delicate instrument, which acts on the
suction principle, was used. After six
days the obstruction was drawn aside
without pain.
When the bandages were removed
Eugene was able to read for the first
time In many years. The cataract
cannot be removed entirely without
cutting, therefore the ultimate success
of the operation cannot be forecast

Northwest Merchants

PORTLAND, Ore.-The Pacific
northwest merchants convention
which is to convene in this city Aug
ust 9 to Ia promises to be one of
the best attended in the history Of
the organization. Invitations sent
out some tome ago have brought
over 1000 acceptances, and what is
more pleasing to the officers of the
organization, delegates are coming
from greater distances than ever be-
fore. Alaska will be we'll represent

as far east as Wyoming, Minnesota,
Colorado and other states east of
the Rocky mountains.
In connection with the conven-
ton, the eighth annual buyers week,
inaugurated by the manufacturers

coming stupendous affair. This

RUSS "SET STAGE" TO
GIVE PROSPEROUS AIR
Moscow Made to Appear Busy to
Deceive the English
Visitors.

An attempt to make Moscow look a
bNsy and prosperous city during the
visit to that city of the English labor
delegates is told by the Lettish infor-
nation bureau, whose press bureau at
Riga has a special correspondent at
tached to the peace delegation in Mos
COW.
1.-THE various institutions in soviet
Russia had for long time been busy
In making preparations for the recep-
ton OF the English labor delegates in
order to show them Russia in attrac-
tive colors," says the correspondent.
In Petrograd where, as a rule, al
most no people are seen in the streets,
all the officials were ordered to take
part in the reception. Theatrical rep
reservations and grandiose banquets
were organized with the participation
Of actresses from the. Marlinski and
Alexandrovski theaters. The dele
gates were taken to Moscow in a spe-
cial train, accompanied by Tcherkess
soldiers in bright uniforms.
In Moscow, the day before the ar
rival of the English delegates, all the
papers published strict orders issued
by the military and civil cOmmissa-
ries setting out what everybody had
to do and how to behave. On May
II the tramway service in the city was
suspended, all the cars being taken to
the neighborhood Of the Nikolas0vski
station, where, gayly decorated, they
moved to and fro, trying to convey to
the visitors the idea of busy traffic.
In the station all the motor cars
from Moscow were modified, even the
highest commissaries having to walk.
On May Is parade was organized,
but no private persons were allowed
to be present. This is the way the
bolshevists organized the tragi-comedy
Of the communistic paradise in order
to deceive the English visitors as to
the real state of soviet Russia.

u. S. Bulletin
Shows Labor
Crops Require

The approximate amount of labor
required to raise some of the more
| important crops has been deter
mined by recent farm studies con-
Quoted by the office of the farm
management bureau, United States
department of agriculture. The re-
suits show that it requires the work
of one man and one horse for a ten
hour day to cut, cure, and harvest
an acre OF hay. Oats, wheat, bar
ley, rye, buckwheat and millet con-
sumo more labor; under normal con-
ditions these grains require the la
Dor of man for two days and for
the horse three days. Corn for the
silo in the central states consumes
three days of man labor and five
and fiye-tenths of horse work. To
bacco in Kentucky uses thirty-five
days of man labor against eight days
for the farm horse, but onions, as
determined through studies in Ohio,
sold in lunches, top the list of veg
etables in the amount of man labor
they require. Onions use 149 days
of man work, but only ten of horse
work. Beets and carrots, also sold
in punches, come next, with eighty
two man days to each acre and eight
days horse labor.
1t is interesting to note that a
horse in the eastern states requires
twelve ten-hour days per year from
his master to care for him and he
contributes only three-quarters of
one day to his own upkeep-hauling
feed, etc. Dairy cows need eighteen
days from the man and two from his
horse each year.
These figures are given in farm
ers' bulletin 1889 to aid the farmer
in an analysis of his business. They
will be useful in assisting the farm
operator to estimate his labor needs
for the next season.

Divers Search Bottom OF Ocean
Near Savannah.
If there is any hidden treasure ly-

Paris island, and legend says there is,
United States marine searchers have
given up hopes Of finding it.
Bell-divers of the marine corps are
operating off the coast of the island
In an attempt to salvage boxes. metal
and odds and ends of cargoes lost
overheard from vessels during the
last few years. This is side line
for the marines, who so far have been
satisfied with patrolling the land, sea
and air, and have never gone in for
deep-sea diving.
Negro residents In the vicinity Of
Savannah, have faith in an old-time
myth that there is hidden treasure
on or near the island, supposed to
have been left by Jean La Fitte, the
pirate on one of his coastwise wan
derings. The marines say the legend
won't hold water.
