THIS LADY APPRECIATD
 INDIAN DANCES, TELLS WHY
75 Summit Ave, Flagstaff, July 4, 1920.

75 Summit Ave,
 Flagstaff, July 4, 1920. Mir. James Swinnerton:
 Dear Sir:-Having had the pleas ure of witnessing the Navajo and Hopi Indian dances on Saturday even ing, l am presuming to write you to say that, as a visitor form a distance Dallas, Texas--I should like to try to express what must have been the experience of many other strangers like myself-my most sincere and in tense pleasure and gratitude for an opportunity so rare and pleasing.
 The Navajo dances and chants were intensely interesting and necer to be forgotten; but the Hopi butterfly dance impressed me as some great and rare ly beautiful work of art. The noble quality of tone and the harmonious ca dences of the music itself reminds one of the best of the 0peratic stage. The dance, original and beautiful; the spec tacular effect; the action, graceful and sincere-the whole was enchanting. Such creation should be perpetuated as monument and rare work of art. Cannot this music be preserved for the future, mechanically, by the wonder full instruments we have, and the dance by the moving picture machine; or, if that can not be done, cannot musicians and dancers record it, as a valuable contribution to the civiliza- ton and ar of America and the world?
 Very sincerely,
 (Mrs. C. E.) EDITH F. HUDSON. MT. Swinnerton had a great deal of trouble in getting the Hopi chief to consent to the dancers coming here. He was afraid they would not be able, in strange environment, to do jus tice to the dance, and preferred, rath- CT than that, not to let them attempt it.
 The Navajo dances were done by wo teams, each of twelve grown males. One team was from Coconino Point, the other from Leupp.

The Indians at the celebration were furnished beef, flour, coffee, sugar, salt and baking powder, free, by pub lie subscription. As there were more than 500 of them, they ate up quite some. There were five tribes repre- sented and in each tribe several clans. No member of clan will fraternize with any other clan. To avoid dissen- sion, the Indians were divided into groups of ten, each group being given their full five-days' food allotment. During the food distribution, 15O Nav ajo bucks watched every move. They proposed to see that the Hopis didn't get any more per capita than they did. One old Navajo squaw came all by herself for an allotment. While she was waiting, the bucks ogled one another, made eyes, and acted like a bunch of rough-neck white boys would toward one of the opposite sex. The squaw paid no attention to them. When it came her turn for food, she was told she would have to join one of the groups and share with them. She explained that she had nothing to do with any of them, would not fra ternize with any of them, and was go- ing to have an allotment all by herself and that was all there was to it. Fin ally, the committee yielded, and gave her an allotment. Then she looked triumphantly around and marched over to one of the groups, of which she had been a member all along and for which her shrewdness had obtain ed an extra allotment of grub.

 Various criticisms sare sometimes heaped upon the head of the editor but the most frequent one follows the omission from wedding account of what the bride wore. There seems to be mania upon the part of large portion of the people to know how the young lady was dressed. The next de- hand will be for information as to the color of the lingerie and the texture of the hosiery and then everybody will want to be an editor-that is every man. Be that as it may, we are right new going to serve notice on prospect i've brides, want-to-be prospective brides and hope-to-be prospective brides, that they must tell the editor what they are going to wear and how they are going to wear it and where they bought it and how much it cost. A questionnaire will be provided for the purpose and if the information is not forthcoming it may be necessary to leave from the paper an account of the wedding because it is hard on the nerves to stand the gaff after wedding accounts published without this infor- mation.

BY William Howard Taft

The fourth Red Cross roll call is now
being held and will continue until the
10th of this month. 1t is in accord
with human nature that public inter-
est in the Red Cross since the war
should wane, or at least that many OF
the people whose support is necessary
to continue its usefulness should cease
their contributions. This roll call is
being conducted for the purpose of
maintaining the old membership and
securing the dues therefrom.
There still remains much Of war
work for the Red Cross. The failure
OF the War Risk Insurance and the Vo-
catlonal Educational bureaus promptly
to discharge their functions has thrown
upon the Red Cross an obligation to
make up for these Deficiencies, the ex-
tent of which the general public does
not know. 1t still has a great deal Of
work in the matter of rehabilitation
and aid for the countries ruined by
the war in Europe. With the funds
which came to the Red Cross during
the war and which we're unexpended,
1T has projected and is carrying on a
plan for helping the cause of public
health and welfare in this country in
the parts of it where the local author
tiles have not been able to meet the
requirements
Distressing News from China
Just at the time of this roll call
comes most distressing news from
China, to make clear the need Of main
tanning the Red Gross and organiza-
tion in all it's efficiency In the north
ern part of China, in the provinces
of Chihli, Honan, Shantung and
Shansi there is dreadful drouth,
the extent of which is hard to over
state. The region is one drained by
the Yellow River, which at times has
overfowed it's banks and has thus been
destructive.
But at this time of year the famine
is brought about by lack of water.
There has not been more than three
inches of rain in that region in twelve
months. The meager harvest of last
year has been followed by an almost
complete failure OF the spring and au-
tumn crops for this year. The famine
will affect at least 20,000.00O people.
Whole districts OF people are living on
weeds, leaves of trees and brain. Com
plete decentralization prevails There
are authenticated cases of families who
have committed suicide all together.
The crops do not average for the

entire year more than per cent of
the normal. The chairman OF the Pc
king chapter of the American Red Cross
says that many trninloads of famine
refugees have been turned back from
Manchuria and are facing slow star
walton in Tlentsin. China has been in
a condition of threatening unrest. This
famine is not likely to allay matters
The Last Great Famine
The last great famine in China was
that of Kaingpeh, in 1906. 1t covered
an area Of 10000 square miles and in
volved some 100000 people; but
this one, so far as it can be calculated
exceeds in its extent 100000 square
miles. affecting possibly $4,000, 900
people. An earlier Chinese famine Of
1878 resulted in the death of between
100000 and 100000 people.
The government of China has asked
the European powers to consent to an
that fund may be created to meet the
necessities. The people of the various
cities of China are raising private
funds and tax is proposed by the gov
ernment upon the salaries of its Off
cials.
The United States Minister has tcle-
graphed the State Department confirm
ing these alarming reports. He says
that many Of the inhabitants are SELL
ing their household effects at famine
prices and emigrating from their dis
.ricts.
1t is estimated that the arcunt Of
money required to save the situation
will be from slO0,0o0,000 to $780,
100000. This is needed not only to keep
alive those whom famine will other
wise carry off, but it is to enable far
mers to secure the seed with which to
plant their crops for the next year
Nothing could wita more emphasis
prove the necessity for maintaining
the Red Cross in all it's strength and
power for good than such a disaster

Would Delay Vote Count

Alfred +. Talley, Chief Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, came forward yesterday
with a suggestion that inaccuracy in
the counting of ballots be avoided in
the future by postponing the beginning
of the count until the morning after
Election Day. He said that mistakes
are almost certain to creep in when the
canvassers are compelled to stay up all
night to do their work. Mr.. Talley
said:
81 am convinced that the only way
this situation can be remedied for the
future would be by closing the polls
at 5 or o'clock in the evening, re-
moving the ballot boxes under lock and
seal to the nearst police stations and

nothing OF the kind existed on which to
build q suspicion
At the meeting of Democratic leaders
here mst week, at which McAdoo.
Baruch. Love, of Texas; E. n. Moore,
manager for Cox at San Francisco. and
other prominent men were present Il
Was decided to do nothing for q while
and leave the shaping OF national poll
cies largely to the Judgment of Senator

Senntor Underwood, on this theory.
will be the real spokesman Cor the ma
tional Democratic leadership in Con-
gress, and probably will continue in
that role until new policy and or
ganizatior. are definitely worked out.
THIS was surprising development,
rs Mr.. Underwood is regarded as ex-
tremely conservative, and the McAdoo-
Baruch group has always been regard
ed as radical, especially on government
ownership of railroads and other utl-
ties
1t is thought that in the next few
months, when affairs have settled more
than at present, the physical organiza-
ticn of the party will be taken over bv
the Baruch -McAdoo group and a chair
man installed who will direct the fight
to be made for the next two years, just
as Will H. Hays was working from the
outset of the Congressional campaign
OF le1S down to the recent election.
Apparently there will be no particu-
lar fight. for control of the organization
put up by other elements against the
McAdoo-Baruch group, on the simple
theory that the control is not worth
what it would cost in money to any
one else. The wet bosses, so called, are
not greatly concerned.
Tovryr Not YTo~s:~I
They feel that no matter what Is
done about the national organization
they must be consulted when campaign
tlons in their states will be intact, they
figure, and they would not consider for
a moment putting up the money neces-
sary to pay the debts of the national
organization and financing it during
the dry spell, Their main chance ali
the time has been in their own states.
or, as IN the case of Murphy, in New
York City.
William Jennings Bryan may play
it is thought, but those figuring on
control by McAdoo and Baruch do not
think he would oppose them strongly.
McAdco was SO dry in his speeches in
the last campaign that Bryan could not
take exception and it is generally un-
derstood that Bryan offered to stump
for Cox if Cox would only make a fiat
statement that he would not stand for
modification of the Volstead act. So
the statement of McAdoo that light
wines and beer were an entering wedge
for the vets and should not be per
mitted, made repeatedly during the
campaign on the stump, was very pleas
ing to the old peerless leader of the
party.
