SEVEN YEARS OF TOLL

Interior, Kept Vision Always

of highest cost. both for materials
and labor.
Secretary Lane has stood for sane
| conservation policy, which aims 10
put all of our natural resources 10
use without waste. as provided in the
oil and coal leasing bill, which has
just become law, and the water
power bill. which promises to become
a law at a very early date. These mat
ters. like the Alaskan problem. were
in a state of turmoil and indecision
when he became Secretary of the In
/, terror: he leaves them practically
solved and in the way of great and
benefcent development
Policies Of Reconstruction.
Secretary Lane was among the first
of our statesmen to discern the I'M
portance of getting ready for recon-
struction after the war. He brought
forward the policy of reclamation and
community settlement in the inter-
est of returning soldiers while .Aose
soldiers were still in the thick ON
combat on the fields of France. HIS
vision was not nicely of homes. or
landed proprietorshIp and of indl-
vidual independence for our soldier
boys. but also of the continuance of
which has made the greatness OF
America in the past. Whatever the
result. he has marked out the course
for one of the greatest of public pol
icies in the future and accomplished
a work of popular education which
will some day materialize in the shape
Of millions of homes and finer ideals
of rural life.
Still another accomplishment of Sec
retary Lanes. which will profoundly
influence the future of this country.
is his work for Americanization. No
other leader has more persistently
held the flag aloft and more eloquent
ly interpreted its meaning. at the
same time pointing out the practical
steps by which its significance should
be impressed upon the minds. the
hearts and the daily lives of the
people.
Battled Against IIIiteracy.
He has exposed the shame of illit-
eracy in the most unexpected parts
of the United States. and the crying
need Of educating our foreign-born
element in the ideals of American
democracy. In this, as in all other
objects Of his solicitous study. he
has followed his denunciation of
things that are wrong with healing
measures to set them right. The
Senate has already passed the Ameri- |
.canixation bill and it is believed that !
the House will do so soon. Whatever
the immediate outcome, Franklin K.
Lane has stamped the genius Of his
statesmanship upon this az upon 9TH
er departments of American life:
His policy of making Independent
citizens Of Indians who are competent
to take care Of their own affairs 10
distinctly in line with his American
ization program.
1t is a commentary Oh the condi- |
tions of American public life that at
the moment OF his greatest useful |
ness. when he is perhaps more need |
ed than ever before, a valuable pub
lie servant finds it necessary to turn !
to private employment in order to
make provision for his family. Il do
not want much" he says. ''only lit |
tie home in California" and to make |
this possible for his old age he must !
dedicate his efforts to business for |
some years. !

Will Expedite Action
on Patent Office Bill

Legislation to enlarge the force in
the patent office about 10 per cent and
to increase salaries in the patent Of
fee 20 to rs per cent is going to be
expedited in the House as a result Of
the hearings before the rules commit
tee. at which manufacturers and other
business leaders urge prompt action
to save the patent office from disor-
ganixation.
Chairman Campbell Of the rules
committee announced that special rule
win be reported out giving the Nolan
patent office ''lifesaver' bill privileged
status Immediately following the Army
reorganization bill. which was reported
to the House yesterday.
Chairman Campbell said that the
patent office bill will probably be the
first measure to claim the attention of
the House after the passage of the
Army reorganization bill next week.

are expected to carry out state pro-
grams in harmony with that Of the
national league. This program as
stated in the constitution of the ma
tional Organization is ito educate for

legislation" >.
Tho program adopted by the wom-
en- in the Chicago convention backs
up many Of the demands which or
ganized labor through the American
Federation Of Labor. has been making
for some time But it goes further.
1t demands industrial justice for the
woman workers-which has not al
ways been so enthusiastically advo-
Gated by male labor. It must be said,
however. that the American Fedora
ton of Labor has for years advocated
woman suffrage, and has omcially
urged that woman workers be given
q square deal The women's indus
trial program demands representation
Of the woman workers on all commits
sions, tribunals or other industrial
agenciea The chairman Of women
in industry section Is Mrs. Raymond
Robbins Of Chicago, president Of the
National Women's Trade Union
League.
Right of the bat the industrial pro-
gram proclaims the right Of collective
bargaining. Next it calls attention
to the fact that wages should be paid
on the basis Of occupation and not Of
sex. Other recommendation in the
program arc the establishment Of q
permanent woman's bureau In tho De-
partment Of Labor. the appointment
Of women in tho mediation and con-
ciliAtion service Of the Department
of Labor and on any industrial COM
mission that may hereafter be ap-
pointed, the establishment Of a

pairing to open headquarters

pose of using its influence to obtain
legislation from Congress desired by
the women Of the country. This Is
the National League Of Woman Voters
successor to the National American
Woman Suffrage Association. which
was recently organized in Chicago.
In large measure the woman's or
ganization will be on all fours with
the American Federation of Labor.
The federation Of labor is nonpar-
tisan; it is for legislation that will
benefit labor: it enters political cam
paiRns with the avowed intention OF
defeating for election men who are
enemies Of the federation and OF or
eanixed labor. The National League
OF Woman Voters is nonpartisan: 1t
stands for legislation primarily In
the interests Of the women and chill
dren, and it plans to enter political
campaigns in the future. as 1t has IN
the past, to defeat candidates who
do not measure up to the ideas Of
the women.
The tremendous influence which can
be exerted by this organization OF
women on legislation and politics.
row that women are about to have
the ballot placed in their hands
through the constitutional amend

will depend upon two things. how
ever. First, the extent to which the
women of the country Join the organi-

which binds the women together. In
the case of the federation Of labor
there is a very definite tie-the inter-

highly centralized affair. though with
branches reaching into every COM

SWEEPS DRYDOCKS
AT NEW ORLEANS

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. f17.-Heroic
efforts of the local fire department,
aided by river fire fighting apparatus
Of every description, probably saved
the Jahncke Dry Dock and Shiphuild-
ing company from total destruction
by fire which swept 1900 feet of
the Jahncke wharf and damaged one
steel and one wooden dry dock late
yesterday. Three steams hips-the
Dillwyn, under charter of the Stand
ard Oil company, the Bavington and
Dade County, owned by the United
States shipping board-were also
damaged before fremen brought the
blaze under control.
After a careful check Of the fire
swept area officials of the Jahncke
company estimated the total losses,
including damage to ships n dry
docks, and to those anchored nearby
at between $1,500,000 and $2.G00,00
No lives were lost and only one
mansuffered severe injury, being
taken to the hospital suffering from
a broken leg.
Scores of workmen caught on the
wharf with the flames blocking their
escape to the 1levee, were compelled
to leap into the river to escape be-
ing burned. At first it was feared
several of these had been drowned,
but a careful check failed to reveal
any missing.

FAY, GERMAN SPY
IN PEN HERE, IS
SEENBYO OFFICIAL

Peter B. Olney, Jr., assistant Unit
ID States attorney for the southern
district of New York, came TO AT
ianta Thursday and went immediate
~ to the federal penitentiary, where
ne interviewed Robert Fay. the ia
NOUS German spy, whose activities In
this country during the early stages
of the war created a sensation
throughout the world.
J Fay was convicted under the es-
pionage act, and is now serving his
sentence in the Atlanta prison. He
escaped from the prison a few
made an extensive tour of the United
States, finally going to Spain before
he was retaken, Government officials
regard him as probably the most in
telligent and successful agent of the
serman government who operated in
he United States.
District Attorney Olney said. Friday
he visited Fay to- secure information
to aid the government in investiga-
lions now under way. He declared
the interview had no significance in
SO far as Fay's own case is concern
ed, and added that his visit was not
made with any view toward executive
ciemency for the prisoner.
1t was the opinion of Atlanta fed
eral officials that Mr.. Olney came to
Atlanta to obtain information from
the famous spy which may aid the
government in the prosecution of
other cases now in the courts.
Fays activities against the United
States in 1917 included gigantic
conspiracy to sink all American
ships transporting troops and wal
supplies to France and England. GOV.
eminent agents at once recognized
that Fay was the master mind be-
hind the conspiracy. and it was only
by the effective work of large
squad of department of justice
agents that his efforts were unsuc-
cessful. Among the department OF
justice agents who worked for many
weeks on Fays case was Colonel A
]. Wismer, now associated with the
Atlanta offices oil the departm emit.
