NE|GHB0RS' RULE
!. GREAT HEALTH AID
Social Unit Finds 1900 Per
Cent Efficiency Increase
in Three Years.

NEW YORK, July II (By the
Associated Press).-Results achiev-
ed in the first three years ex-
pertinent in neighborhood govern
ment, conducted by the National
SOCIAL Unit Organization in Cincin-
natl, Ohio. We're summarized in a
statement made public here today by
wilbur {. Phillips, executive of the
organization. The experiment en-
braces two principles, the statement
explained. creation of a neighborhood
council of representatives elected by
residents of blocks of 100 families
each. and creation of an advisory
poard of representatives elected by
members OF occupational groups.
Ihe chief lessons learned, the state
ment said, are Increased efficiency
IN social service achieved through
Capitalization, which has amounted
IN the field of public health alone to
from 800 to- 1900 per cent; the in
creased participation in the affairs of
the nelghborhood on the part of the
people; the value of experimenting
public effort with the assistance of
the members of technical groups and
the growth of the spirit of true
neishborliness.'
The organization, Mr.. Phillips said
Will devote it's attention for a few
months to careful analysis of the
work OF the uint from the standpoint
OF cost and statistics, to supplement
eleven evaluations made last winter
by experts who visited Cleveland.

MEMPHIS DEFENDED
AGAINST FIRE HAZARD
Reorganization of Department
With Volunteer Corps Revealed i.
in Chiefs Report.

MEMPH1S, Tenn, July 17-"With
the training of the volunteer f1remen
continuing and the acquisition of ex-
per1enced firemen to form an entirely
new department being extended by
the city, Memphis now has a fire de-
partment capable of handling any
situation that may arise was the re-
port made to John B. Edgard. fire
and police commissioner. by Chief
F1tzmorriS of the fire department to-
day.
None of the members of the Fire
hghters' Union who resigned in a
BODY nave been reinstated, and the
city officials maintain that none can
return to work. One fire station to-
day was completely manned by regu-
lar men of the new department. Also
new station house recently COM
pleted and heretofore unoccupied
has been put in service with volun-
teerS forming the crew.
In statement issued as a result of
the special meeting of the city COM
mission Friday night, Mayor ]. r.
Paine said: There can never be a
union fire department in Memphis
again. Not because unionism is
wrong, but because it has no place in
a city government. The question of
pay is just one and the city admin
istration is willing to concede that
the firemen were inadequately paid"
The pay of the firemen is fixed by
the Legislature and at this time, it's
officials explained. there is no way in
which it can be increased by the city.

FIGHT TOBAR EVIDENCE
TRIAL
Defense Opposes Testimony Of q. S.
Secret Service Agent Who
Posed as Red.

CHICAGO. July II (by the Asso-
ciated Press).-Trial of twenty alleged
leaders of the communist labor party
on charges of plotting to overthrow
the United States government by
force was halted today while the de-
tense fought to bar testimony of H.
j. Wilson, United States secret agent
who posed in Seattle as a bolsheviki
leader and was elected secretary of
the soldiers. sailors and workmen's
soviet council.
On the courts decision also depends
whether Ole Hanson, ex-mayor of
Seattle, and a Canadian, said to have
been a. member of the Winnipeg gen.
eral strike committee. can appear.
Documents seized by the state in
raids on communist labor book stores
praised the Seattle and Winnipeg
strike leaders. and the state is seek
ing to introduce evidence which, it
is claimed. will show the strikers
were inspired by Russians with revo-
lutionary purpose.
William Big Bill Haywood, former
general secretary of the 1. w. W.. and
thirty-six other l. w. w. members,
indicted on charges similar to those
against the communist laborites, made
an unsuccessful effort today to have
the indictments quashed.
Failing in that, they demanded an
immediate trial. Judge Pam reserved
decision.

THIRD PARTY A FAILURE.
BA[T|MOREAN FEARS
Labor Group Only One of 81 Varie-
ties Able to Agree on
Program.
Special Dispat ch to The Star.

BALTIMORE, Md, July II (Spe-
ciaD.-'There were fifty-seven varie-
ties Of opinion among the committee
of forty-eight." says one of the two
Baftimoreans who went to Chicago as
delegates from the committee of
forty-eight and came home convinced
that the efforts to form a third party,
which intelligent men and women
might support with some hope of eff
fectiveness was an utter failure
Both of these, William Tappan,
president of the Severn Community
Corporation, and Mrs. W. j. Brown.
indicate that they feel that the
failure was due to the inability of
various representatives of various
theories of government, other than
the labor element. to agree on what
was important and what was not and
the very great ability of labor to
agree and to put it over" on the
other delegates at the convention.
The Maryland delegates. Mrs
Brown. Mr.. Tappan. Rev. Mercer c.
Johnston of Glencoe. Baltimore
county; Frederick J. White, w. F.
Willkie, jr.. and a Mr.. Bean of the
Brotherhood of Trainmen, came home
yesterday.
L have absolutely no respect for
| the politician" said Mr.. Tappan. II
had hoped that this convention would
! result in the men who had been
thinking on the really important sub
| jects of the time getting together and
forming a platform which would rep
| resent a real return to American prin-
ciples But so far as the members of
the committee of forty-eight were
concerned it developed into a contest
of representatives of the single-tax
and other special theories for their
own theories, and they were unable
| to get together and to determine
what was important and what was
unimportant in the things they were
advocating. Each man stood un-
yieldingly for his own theories. The
labor element knew exactly what it
wanted and was able to put its pro-
gram over.
| THE result. so far as I can see, is
| that there is no third party. The
labor program was so radical that we
of the committee of weight cam
not vote for it. I don't know how I
shall vote at the next election

LAS a consequence of the grave
events that have occurred in Bolivia
and in view of the special situation
of our northern frontier, separated
by deserts from the rest of the coun-
try and without the elements Of rapid
transportation, the government has
seen the necessity of completing the
electives of it's forces covering the
boundary, thus fulfilling an elemental
duty of precaution SO as to avoid
any conflict.
with this object in view, the con-
scripts in the northern zone of the
country have been called into service
in numbers considered Indispensable

Tar Heel "ExiIes"

New York long has boasted
that more Irishmen live in that
city than in Dublin. Norfolk is
Dragging on the fact that more
North Carolinians live there than
in Raleigh, the Tar Heel capital.
The recent census shows some
81 900 North Carolinians living in
Norfolk, while the total popula-
ton of Raleigh is under $1,000.
1t is probable that some of the
citizens of Raleigh were not born
there. 1t is probable that II per
cent of the population of Peters
burg is from North Carolina.
which is about the percentage of
the population of Norfolk that
came originally from the North
State. There is no doubt that if
the sons and daughters of North
Carolinians who came to Peters
burg to live be included the per-
centage of our population of Tar
Heel blood is fully as great as
Norfolk's. And it's mighty"
fine blood. 1t may be doubted
whether the people of any two
states of the union are quite so
homogeneous as are those Of Vir-
ginia and North Carolina. Tar
Heels themselves insist they are
quite different from Nirginians,
but we have not been able to dis
cover the difference. Tho Ports
