Larger Force Needed.

In conclusion, Major Marsh reports:
THE impossibility of protecting the
rural districts Of a territory covering
forty-two thousand square miles, prac.
tically without police protection ex-
cept that furnished by the State Po-
lice, and of complying with the two
thousand, five hundred and one re-
quests for assistance received during
the past year and which are constant
known. With force of only two hun.
dred and four officers and men this
must be acknowledged and does not
admit of argument. Although the
population of the state has increased
over one-half million since the force
was first organized, the strength OF
the force has not increased one single
man.
while the amount of pay provided
by the Act of 1919 helped at the time
TO keep the experienced men, the in
creased cost of living during the past
year and the large increase in wages
of all classes OF labor, has not only
made it difficult to secure desirable re.
cruits, but has influenced members
of the force TO resign 20 as to accept
much better paying positions.
IL would respectfully recommend
the force 10 be increased by thirty.
FIVE per cent and that the pay be In.
creased to conform to the pay of DO
lice officers OF cities OF the first class"

 The Yankee pitcher warmed up'' near the right field bleachers. but after the game with Detroit started, he went to the clubhouse,
 The fact that Mays indulged in prac- tice today was taken as an indica tion that Manager Huggins intends to work the pitcher in his regular turn, and it was said that if Mays had sufficiently recovered from the shock of the Chap man accident that he would pitch to- morrow.

 misses and boOs, and these were re-
 peated each time Cobb went to bat.
 While no definite purpose is stated in the call for the special meeting of the American League. to be held Tues day at Philadelphia. it is believed the Chapman accident will be one of the matters to come up for consideration.
 Owners Huston and Ruppert. refer. ring to statement by President John son of the American League, that he believed Mays never would pitch again, issued a statement. saying:
 .OHNSON'S STATEMENT
 Mays while bowed down with grief Is not broken reed. He will go along and follow his regular means of live lihood as a strong man should, and we expect him to win games as usual. If he requires protection he will receive it from us to the extreme limit, no mat ter where it may lead
 Since joining the Yankees, Carl Mays has been a loyal and painstaking player, whose life has been clean and whose conduct has been above reproach He has our entire confidence and will have our unstinted support.

THE STORM FLAGS

Responsible leaders of both par
ties, particularly of the party that
will be in power, may we'll find a
warning in the vote piled up by Ar
thur G.. Wray for governor of Ne
braska, who appeared on the ballot
only "by petition" Had he been
the candidate Of regularly organ
lied third party, designated as such
on the ballot, and had not impassa-
BILE roads kept thousands of farmers
from the polls, there is good reason
for believing he would have won
over both McKelvie and Morehead.
His support came from organized
agriculture and organized labor.
Unquestionably millions of other
such voters throughout the country
voted for Harding because there was
no other way to record a vote OF OPP
position and dissatisfaction. They
will turn on the republican party
as readily as they did on the demo-
cratic. And when they do turn, If
their feeling be still unallayed, they
are as likely as not to turn to a
third party--a class party-which
will threaten the displacement of
our two-party system by the Euro
pean group system, with several
small parties each representing a
class and with government admin
istered by a coalition of groups.
The storm flags are already rails
ed for the party that is coming into
power. The Wray vote in Nebraska
is a straw showing which way the
wind is already blowing.

MUSIC FOR NERVOUS PEOPLE
Means of Doing Them a Great
Deal of Good.

Music as a means of achieving VI
tality and health is a sealed book to
many musicians. 1t has always been
the idea that one must have good
health to be able to study music to
any advantage. Actually the truth is
rightly used and directed, music is one
of the most potent means we have to
reconstruct many types of people.
The nervous and the depressed are
the ones that most need music. To a
teacher with doctor or nurse instinct
(and many have iD, music can be used
In a way to reach some cases, and they
respond to it as to nothing else.
AS everyone knows, nervous people
are extremely sensitive to sound. A
sudden jarring noise will completely
upset them for time and II the wrong
kind of sound creates wrong effect, 1t
follows, logically, that an agreeable
sound does just the opposite-creates
an extremely comfortable and sooth-
ing effect. For that reason music of
the right kind should be a part Of
the daily routine Of every nervous per.
son, either as listener or pupil.

PURPOSE IN SELF-TORTURE
High Object in Infiction Of
Bodily Punishment.

A passion play takes place yearly
In the Ration and Sandia mountains
of northern New Mexico. A group Of
people living in this district have for
centuries each Lenten season gone
through a series Of self-inflicted bodily
fortunes, enduring their agonies in the
belief that these barbarities will alb
solve them from past and future sins.
The passion play is said to be so saw
agely realistic that at times perform
ers have died as a result of injuries
received while taking part in II.
These people are known as Los
Hermanon Penitentes, or the Peni-
tent brotherhood. The Penitentes are
of Mexican origin, with a marked
strain Of Indian blood. They are dense
ly ignorant, not many being able to
read Spanish, and only a very few are
familiar with English. Hardly one in
ten has ever been a hundred miles
away from the isolated mountain set

and silver. They live in mud and
crude stone houses, as did their ances-
tors two and three hundred years ago.

DlFFUSlNG LIGHT IN ASIA
Christian Missionaries Firmly Behind
independence Move, Though Not
Directly Responsible for It.

No picture of the independence move
ment or of Korean life in any aspect
is adequate that does not include the
church as one of its high lights. OBJ
serves Nathaniel PETER In Scribner's.
Now. even the japanese have with
drawn the charge that the movement
is exclusively Christian and that il was
instigated by American missionaries
for American political purposes. But
II Is true that the Korean Christians
are unit in its support. that the ma
jority Of its leaders are Christian and
that the originating impulse is largely
Christian.
And that is only natural: First. be-
cause the Christians are The most influ-
entail class in Korea and. second. he.
sarily means contact with Western
ideas and Western thought. And those
necessarily means the development OF
a spirit that cannot and will not en-
dure subsection to the iron military
rule of an alien conqueror.
In that sense Christianity is RESPONSE
BILE for the unrest in Korea and in that
sense the Christian church is the
enemy the Japanese have to fight. And
that will be increasingly true as time
goes on, for Christianity is making
rapid Strides in Korea, the more rapid
for the part the Christians have played
in the rebellion.
