BCRAH DEMANDS
Open DOORS At
ARMS CONCLAVE
Idaho Senator Tells Eastern
Audience People of Great
Nations S hould Back
Campaign to Reduce Ar
maments.

Senator Borah at Ashbury Park,
N. j., urged an audience Monday
night to help get little more dem
ocracy in foreign affairs. AL
though one of the foremost advo-
Gates of armament limitation, he
predicted that the armament con-
ference would be a failure unless
public opinion unmistakably de-
manded reduction of navies and
armies.
"Pry open the doors of the confer
ence," he declared. Let the sun
light of publicity beat in on the
dark and secret places. Let us know
what's going on in order that pub
lie opinion may have its molding eff
feet. Above all, let responsibility be
fixed, and then let public opinion
lash from power those who betray
the cause.
Disarmament will be but a delu-
sion, a fraud veneered with tepid
purposes and false promises, unless
there is found demanding it and
supporting 1t what amounts to a
moral and social revolution. 1t
will come only at the command OF
the people, united and determined,
persistent and untiring.
1t Is your fight That con-
erence will accomplish nothing OF
zeal and substantial worth except
[ be directed and dominated by the
commanding voice. In the name OF
he dead upon a thousand battle
fields, in the name of countless mill
ions bending under the crushing
burden of war, in the name Of the
MANNED and wounded in the name
Of all who are hereafter to inherit
the earth, let US not lose interest,
ct us not give up hope, let us rath-
er resolve that the conference shall
not fall that our hearts and hopes
and prayers will brace and direct
yes, command-the men who have
this fearful responsibility retsing
upon them"
Old-fashioned diplomacy brought
n the World war, he said "and
he same system of secret negotia-
ions is relied on to solve the pro-
blems which confront us"
And already the system is bear
ing fruit, he added. England and
France have Travelled far apart in
three years, how far one hardly
dares estimate. Public officials in
the congress of the United States and
the diet of Japan announce that
great nayies are necessary because
Of the treachery of the other nation,
You know, and | know, and every
man who can and cares to think
knows, that under this program we
are headed for bankruptcy or war
or both.
1T means moral breakdown. 1t
means industrial peonage for the
masses. 1t may mean in the future,
as 1t has always feant in the past,
wounds and mangled bodies and
shattered minds and millions dead,
before a decade has come and gone.
"Who can stop this trend of af-
fairs? Nobody can stop 1t but you,
the people of this country, the peo-
pie of Great Britain and of Japan"

PLAN DETERRENT CHAUTAUQUA FOR ANOTHER SEASON
Local Committee Advises Booking Company Con-
 ditions Not Favorable.

Deferment of this summers Chau
 tauqua program, for which con tract was signed in 1919 by a local committee with Ellison & White Chautauquas, has been proposed to the booking company, according to a statement made by H. l.. Faulkner today. This action was taken, he stated, after a conference by those composing the committee and who entered into the original contract.
 For several years prior to 1920, Chautauqua programs were given here. They were first class in every respect and drew good crowds While at no time a paying proposition for the local committee, which guaran- teed the fund necessary to bring the attractions North, on account of the high class entertainment afforded, they were continued until last year
 Last year the company advised the committee that it was not con sdered advisable to send any enter tainers to Alaska on account of con-

ditions. The contract, however, still holds good for the present summe.. and the committee, said MT. FaulE- her, has been informed that the com pany has made tentative plans for including Alaska in it's tours this year. On receipt of this informa tion, the local committee immediate ly advised the company that condi- tions here at this time did not war rant a Chautauqua course and under the circumstances advised cancelia- tiOn of the contract or deferment of the course until conditions are mosD favorable.
 The local committee is composed of H. L. Faulkner, Oak Olson, c. T. Jackson, Lester D. Henderson, B. M. Rehrends, R. k. Robertson, Willis E. Nowell, Charles D. Garfield, A. j.

MINE MANAGER WONDERS OVER
 CASTINEAU co,
E. l. Donohoe of Britannia Beach Visits Big Mines
 As Guest of Manager.

"I am highly impressed with tht wonderful organization fer mining and milling Of the Alaska Gastinea, Mining Company and marvel al the great system that had been evolved for the treatment of the ores by the company" is the way E. J. Donohue general manager of the Britannia Mining X Smelting Company, ex pressed himself yesterday when asked about his impressions after 6 visit to the Gastineau Company property.
 'To one who has followed the progress of the mining business. tha: this wonderful organization and the great plants erected for the treat ment of ores should be abandoned has a saddening tendency" he con tinued presenting as it did the very last word i'll the science of mining but" he continued, q am sure that 1t least some of the property can be converted to other uses that will bring prosperity in it's wake"
 The Britannia Mine. situated at Britannia Beach, 28 miles north of Vancouver, B. C., is, according tc Mr. DOnohue. one of the greatest copper mines in Canada. It has em. ployed as high as 1000 men at va rious times. At the present time tnly development work is being do;.t in the mine, owing to, the fact tset cUppel prices are low and that T cir mill that averaged 2,200 tons dTy Vas burned to the ground iast Maroh. The ore is treated by :se Notation process and then sent to the Tacoma shelter for final treatm mt The ore is rather low grade and car ries some values in gold and si',er
 Plans having now been completed for a new and modern milling plant MT. DonOhue made the trip here for the purpose of looking at machinery of the Gastineau Company with ar idea of purchasing some of it and tC study some of the mining and mill ine problems presented here
 You may say for my wife and myself that we have fallen in low with Juneau and are coming pack not to stay over just one boat bu to stay for several weeks,' Mr Dono hue said yesterday. 'We, in all our have never visited a place that we liked so well'
 While here MT. and Mrs. Donohue were the guests of General Manager c. T. Jackson of the Gastineau Min ing Company and visited the mines of his company. Yesterday they made the trip to Mendenhall Glacier with Mir. Jackson and upon his re turn MT. Donohue said that it was 2 trip he would never forget as long as he lived. and one of great beauty and pleasure.

MILL BLOWN UP BY BANDITS IN
 MEXICO, CLAIM
E. M. Durback, Former Alas kan Loses Property Near
 Torreon, Mexico.

To have his silver mill blown up himself stripped of most of his cloth ing and turned loose among ths cacti of a Mexican desert, two days travel from any habtation, is the experience of F. M Durback. a min ing. engineer who is awaiting a boal here to go to Western Alaska.
 MT. Durback says he was mining near Torreon. Mexico. for year and half and was developing a very rich silver prospect. He had done q lot of development work at the mine and had just completed a 25-tOn mill for the treatment of the ore when bandits swooped down upon the place. put 5G boxes of powder under the mill and blew it and the whole camp sky high, according to MT. Durback
 He himself lost all his personal belongings and was left to wander barefoot over the plains for two days. He suffered from the eXces- sive heat, the cacti and the fear of tarantulas that abound in that dis trict and was only happy when he reached civilization and was able to take a boat out of the country, he said.
 The savings of a lifetime. and money advanced by his friends, all went up in the explosion, which oc- cured, according to Mir. Durback, on the 9th of June last MT Dur back says that Mexico is a rich country, but until it is cleared of the bands of bandits that rove through out the outlying districts, destroying property, robbing and pillaging, he will be content to stay away.
 MT Durback is going into the Will low Creek district in Western Alaska to follow his profession as mining engineer. Previous to going to Mex ico he lived for a time in Western Alaska.

child must no longer be the victim of conditions over which it has no control but for which society and the state itself is to blame When the state is imperilled, it calls the child of IS to defend it with it's life. When the child is imperilled, it has right to call on it's over-parent the state, to protect it with it's wealth.
 ''The time will come when it will be regarded as a crime against child hood if the state permits that child to suffer from under-nourishment due either to poverty or ignorance. Since it is the accepted duty of the state to educate the child, it is far more it's duty to feed the child.
 Time to Save Is at Birth
 "The time to save many a boy bandit is in the nine months before and the nine months after his birth We must have maternity laws. We must have laws to see that the child does not suffer for the lack of proper HOurlS0meHI II the parents are unable to perform that function and if they are able to perform it, so see to it that it is performed
 "If this is Paternalism,' then all of your free school system is Pater- nalism, and if free schools are Pa ternalism, then give us more of it. We have the common experience in every city of five children of a wealthy family for whom the state has paid over $25,000 for their free education, and the five children of a poor widow who need to be fed even more than they need to be edu- cated and for whom the expense of education is wasted because of this neglected condition which makes them incapable of receiving it's full advantages. Under-nOurished chil dren are more dangerous to the state than under-educated children.
 Tt is not the purpose of the Par enthood of the State to usurp the function of the home or to permit the natural parent to shirk,. but rather to see that the home per forms its function where it is care less, and to see that no child suffers because of poverty where the home is helpless. The state must preserve the home for the child"

BEST VEGETABLES TO PLANT
Many Beginners Make Mistake Of
Planting Everything In cata-
Iogue-Pulverize Soil.

Some beginners in gardening be-
come very enthusiastic In early spring
when they look through seed cata-
logues. They have desire to plant
every kind Of vegetable deliberately
described and favorably illustrated.
AS a rule not more than Is or 20
kinds of vegetables should be planted
in the average home garden, say spe-
cialists Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. Few beginners
also realize the Importance Of we'll
prepared seed beds. Pulverize the soil
as deeply as 1t is plowed. II the soil
is coarse and lumpy, even though its
surface Is well broken up, the plants
will not thrive. Large air spaces In
the soil are injurious, but great num-
ber of small ones are beneficial.

Many Large Cities.

prepared by the Uni, sd States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
Home vegetable gardens will be just
AS important in stabilizing the food
supply In 1921 as they have been ut
any time during the past few years,
say garden specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Urgent need for increased production
Of food during the war caused thou
sands of rural and urban residents to
plant gardens, which resulted in es-
tablishing the gardening habit. This
year, specialists say, home gardens
will play an important part in thrift
and economy. Thousands Of acres Of
uncultivated land In and about many
large cities will be utilized this year
to furnish employment and recreation
to home gardeners who know that by
raising their own supply of vegetables
they can materially reduce their liv-
Ing costs.
Enough for Average Family.
One-tenth of an acre Of fairly good
grouhd-a square about 65 feet each
way-will supply the greater part of
the vegetables needed by the average
family, say garden specialists of the
department. The cost Of all seeds
and fertilizers for garden of this
size should not exceed $16 to SIS, and
may not cost more than S5 or $40.
Experience has shown that not more
than 100 hours should be required for
planting and caring for a tenth-acre
garden. This time Is so distributed
throughout the season that the work
can be easily done by most persons
working In factories, stores, or Offices.
1t means an average Of about FIVE or
six hours a week for period of 20
weeks or merely enough time for prop
er outdoor recreation and exercise
necessary for good health. More time
will be required early In the season
while the garden Is being prepared
and planted than during the summer,
when not more than two or three
hours a week will be necessary to
keep the garden In good condition.
A little time during mornings. eve
nings, and on holidays spent in the
garden is a good investment. A gar
den Is like farm however, In that 1t

AS the object Of parcel post deal
ing is to obtain slightly increased
prices for the producer and better
products at the same price, or the
same class Of products at lower prices,
for the consumer, the question Of ar
irving at prices fair to both is i'm
portant, and also difficult, say mar
keting specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
1t is not likely. at least not for
some time to come, that eggs will be
marketed so largely by parcel post
that the ordinary market quotations
can not be depended upon In arriving
at prices.
1t should be comparatively easy for
a producer and consumer to agree
upon stipulated market quotations as
the basis for determining prices. A

given 1t. A well-cared-for garden will
produce much higher yields than one
which is neglected. The average re-
turn In money value from tenth-acre
plot Of ground usually Is about $S5
for season.
Fresh Vegetable Supply.
Plenty of fresh vegetables direct
from the garden to the table is of
vastly greater Importance than the
money value, the cutting out Of mid
dleman's profits or transportation
problems. The question of saving and
cost, however, may prove very I'M
portant factor before the close Of an
other year. Already there is much
unemployment of labor and the local
or home production Of foods In the gar
den is the surest way Of safeguarding
the family food supply. It is said that
the farmers Of the country could cut
themselves of from the rest Of the
people and live comfortably for an
indefinite period. because they can
produce practically everything that
they need. Gardens furnish an I'M
portant part Of the living Of families
on farms and the same principle viii
apply to people who live In cities,
towns, and villages who have access
to a small tract Of land on which to
grow a garden.
