.ANTI-RED CRUSADE
MEETS APPROVAL
Country And Congress Too, Land
In Commendation Of Activity
Against Radicalism
(By Associated Press)

Washington, d. c., Jan. 13.-The
vigorous campaign of the admins
tration against radicalism is meet
ing with countrywide approval, and
if Congress grants the appropriation
just requested by the Department of
Labor the roundup of "reds" will con-
tinue with increased vigor and scope.
Following raids By the Department
of Justice which resulted in the az
rest of more than 5000 persons sus-
pected of radical tendencies, the De-
partment of Labor submitted to Con
eress, when it ressembled last week,
estimates for an appropriation of
81 100000 for the enforcement of
laws against alien radicals and
$15O,O0O for expenses of their de-
portation.
The Department of Labor also asks
a deficiency appropriation of 100000
to continue its work of regulating
immigration.
The commendable activities of the
Department of Justice in srreSting
suspected alien radicals and in the
seizure of tons of Objectionable litera-
ture and propaganda matter, togeth-
CT W n the estimates submitted blythe
Department of Labor, reveal the in
tent of the administration to pursue
relentlessly the campaign against
radicalism. Aliens who preach over
throw of government and violence, or
who indulge in infammatory utter
ances against American laws and in
stitutions, will come Immediately un-
der the surveillance of agents of the
Government and will be arrested
whenever their activities reach a
point where they are regarded as in
imical to the public welfare.
Approval of the finn policy of the
administration as K relates to sup
preston of radical and anarchistic
tendencies is found in Congress as
well as the country at large. 1t is be-
lieved, therefore, that Congress will
feel impelled to give to the executive
departments whatever SUMS may be
NEEDED for carrying on the vital
work.
There is no doubt that much Of the
secret service machinery of the
Government will continue to operate
against radicalism wherever it may
be found. This campaign is regarded
as one of unusual Importance, and
hundreds of operatives of the Depart
ment of Justice and the Department
of Labor have been assigned to the
war on the "reds' That there will
be further deportations of alien rad
icals as soon as clear-cut cases arc
established against suspected per-
sons in generally expected. The adj
ministration is determined to move
speedily and vigorously against any
alien who by word or act encourages
disloyalty to the American Govern
ment

PROOF OF sAeAcI1Y OF RATS
How Rodents Handle Eggs, for In
.. stance, Shows They Possess :
Ability to Reason. =.

A careful student of the rodent tribe
writes: mo single point better Illus
trates the sagacity of the rat than the
way in which it eats an egg: It bites
through. the shell and chips off small
fragments. as neatly as squirrel opens
nut. consumes the entire contents
without splitting a drop and then sits
up and Ticks itself clean like cat.
Rats will steal the e gs from under a
setting hen. Their method Of handling
eggs is also characteristic. An~e egg is
as largefor a rat as barrel is for q
man. and much more fragile. Yet
there is evidence Of the fact that they
pass eggs along from one to another,
although not probably, as has. often
been reported, by forming long lines,
like a bucket brigade. "sy The operation
is naturally difficult one to observe,
but apparently it takes two rats to-
each egg. One holds the egg in it's
paws. passes it on to the oeher, and
then runs ahead to take it once more
in it's turn. The same device seems
to be employed to carry an egg down,
stairs. the one that has the egg pass
ing it to companion standing on the
step he'nw.''. -.

NEWSOF THE
THEATERs
RIG MYSTERY GRAND
TOMORROW

All of the thrills that Turk in the
nages of 1.-THE Mystery of the Yello"
Room" have been caught FOR the
screen by Emil Chautard and Will
be shown at the Grand theatre for
three days beginning tomorrow
Sunday. 1t is one OF thoes hovels
by CASTOR Leroux-the kinds that
were bound in pale yellow paper anu
that keep you awake burning the
midnight oil until you discovered
who murdered the masked mailman.
Thrills of this sort are a difficult
thing to reproduce on the screen and
mast of the cerdit for this excellent
melodrama is due to the direction OF
Chautard, who has kept all the eerle
suspense of the novel.
1.-THE Mystery of the Yellow Room
starts off dramatically with the
scream of Mathilde Strangerson.
beautiful daughter of the removed
scientist. as the criminal enters ner
room. Her father and the gardener
rush frantically to her door, only to
find it barricaded from the inside
They rush to her window on the op-
nosite side of the house. The same
situation confronts them there, the
windows heavily barred. Yet the
criminal escapes, and makes further
entries into the yellow room.
It is safe to say that unless one has
previously read the story they can
not solve this engaging problem
The screen cannot have too many
pictures of this grade.

Paying on the Nail.

An expression with which everyone
lis familiar is "paying on the nail"
comes from the old method Of settling
accounts. In the early day of trade
and commerce. merchants on change
paid their debts by counting out
their gold on to a copper nail"
or table, in the ;S::rrket-place. Writ
ten receipts are now almost universal,
and these nails are no longer used !;
but two splendid specimens still re-
main among the most interesting treas
ures of the ancient port Of Brfs-
toll: They are each about four feet
high, shaped like a gigantic hour=glass.
There. they stand in the busy street,
4 lasting monument to the integrity Of
the old trading and merchant class,
who paid on the nail and scorned a
receipt. -: ..I75r

DEEP UNDERSTANDING,

Is there such thing as carrying
optimism to excess? A noted psy-
biologist who saw what Every
Woman Learns" the picture attrac-
tion starring Enid Bennett at the
Elko theatre tonight, when the film
was shown in New York.. remarked
upon the deep understanding Of hu-
man nature which Thomas H. Ince
exhibited, in producing it.
This picture isaa fine and true
example of the falacy of the cpl
curean philosophical life," said the
professor 1.-THE belief that the pro-
per way to live is for pleasure only
and that the logical attitude is to
regard everything as joke, as the
heroism in this story does, falls down
absolutely when one is confronted
with a great crisis and tragedy.

How old is rattlesnake? It
has always been aIsource of sat

amended it. What could be cas-

Count the rings and you have
it's age. Now the scientists

Raymond Lee Ditmars. 'cura-
tor of reptiles in the New York

development Of the rattles as
follows: -
Wien a rattlesnake is born,
it is provided with small but
ton at the tip of it's tail. A few 4
months after birth it sheds its
skin. In two months more 1t
sheds its skin second time,
and in so doing uncOvers- the

every time it sheds it's. skin it
unccvers a new segment. Under
normal conditions, a, rattlesnake
sheds its skin three times
a year, but unusual climatic or
food conditions may vary the
number of molts. =
The rattle is a very delicate
organ. The snake wears out the
older rings dragging them
around over rough. rocky
ground. A rattle seldom attains
length of more than ten or
eleven rings, as when that num-
