INSTALLS x-RAY MACHINE
 FOR BENEFIT OF PRISONERS

JACKSON, Mich, Dec. 23 (by Asso- ciated Press).-The Michigan state penitentiary here has set what is said to be an innovation in prison manage ment by the purchase of an X-ray ma chine with which to photograph the skulls of inmates and determine If surgical operations might cure the patients of criminal tendencies. This work has just been undertaken at the prison.
 When it is found that part of the skull Is pressing on the brain an oper- ation is to be performed in the prison hospital by Detroit surgeons who have volunteered to cooperate.
 If the operation is believed to have cured the prisoner the judge who sen fenced him will be asked by Warden Harry L. Hurburt of the prison to bring about his release. A number of judges in the state have agreed to ac- cede to any such request made by the warden, he announces.

OIL SHIPMENTS

 HAVED0UBLED

MEXICO CITY, Dec 23 (by Asso- ciated Press. Figures showing that oil shipments from Mexico have dou- bled since the first of the year have been published by the department of industry and commerce which records October shipments of 17,301,O0O bar rels as against S,O61,2S9 barrels in January.
 These figures are striking in view of the fact that in 1901 Mexico shipped out 1O,345 barrels and in 1910, 3,634,0S0 barrels.
 Shipments in 1919 totalled S7,O72,- 945 barrels and there is reason to be- lieve that this years shipments will amount to more than 125 100000 bar rels.
 Announcement was made recently that United States petroleum com panies have just paid the Mexican government more than S,O00,000 pesos in taxes.
 It is estimated that the petroleum industry in Mexico represents value of O,0OO,0O0 American gold.

Accused in Chicago Case

CHICAGO, May 9.-Twenty-six al
legged members OF the Communist La
Dor party will go on trial before Judge
Oscar Hebel tomorrow, charged with
conspiracy to advocate the overthrow
Of the government by force.
Thirtynine were indicted, but not all
will appear in court, for several are
reported to have fed to Mexico and
Europe, One, John Reed, magazine
writer, author and first Bolshevki en-
voy to the United States, is now in Jail
at Abo, Finland, according to State De
partment reports, accused of smuggling
from Bolshevik Russia.
The thirty-nine defendants, with
three women, have also been indicted
separately under the Illinois law
against criminal syndicalism. Their
arrests resulted from the nationwide
roundup of suspected radicals last
January.
At the same time eighty-six alleged
members of the Communist party and
thirty-seven Industrial Workers of the
World also were indicted, and they
with the three women who were de-
clared to be Communist Laborites are
awaiting trial later.
The most prominent Of those slated
to go on trial tomorrow is William

Denim and calico, together with the

which these people can express their
feelings toward the grinding process.
Those directly engaged in production

must heed this complaint and do their
level best to lower commodity prices.
Prices can be lowered if labor as well
as capital will do its part.
"Watcn the price, has been our
warning for months. Here has been
the chief danger point in our situation,
and We welcome anything that will
keep prices from soaring to a point

by resentful hearts, help in the right
