FOR WORLD CITY
Various Sites Proposed for AM
bilious Project.
to Form international Clearing
House of information.

New Jersey, Hawaii, Cuba, the en-
virons of Paris. the Riviera, Belgium,
Switzerland. Italy, and Greece have
been proposed as sites for an interna-
tional city, upon the plans of which
Hendrix Anderson, an American, now
residing in Rome, has been collabor-
ating for the better part of the last
Is years. Such city. according to
Mr.. Anderson's projects, would not be
the adaptation to international pur-
poses of town already existing, but
would be built new and so would con-
tain only those edifices necessary for
it's aims and maintenance. There
would be. among other buildings, an
international court of justice, which
Mr.. Anderson willingly comedies would
not do away with war. but would at
least lessen the possibility Of it. and
which would be attended by perma-
nant representatives from all nations.
There would also be an international
bank, an international medical con-
gress, which would always be in ses-
sion, and through which all new dis
coveries in medicine, hygiene and SAM
tation would at once be disseminated
throughout the world; an information
al press building. and an international
chamber of commerce and labor. Each
government would likewise have its
own building, which would offer to rep
resentatives of the other nations the
opportunity of examining all the
works Of progress made by each coun-
try. The city would then be an in
ternational clearing house Of informa-
ton, and from its establishment. Mr..
Anderson declares. only good results
could accrue.
The plans of the city have been ex-
hibited at the Smithsonian institute at
Washington and extensive literature
concerning it's economic. political and
structural possibilities has been sent
to the presidents and sovereigns OF
practically all the countries In the
world. The estimated cost of such a
city is S5OO,0O0OO0, but the net an
nual gain to each nation participating
in its advantages and facilities would
be sol. 100000. according to the calcu-
Iations in the tracts which have been
sent out.
Lectures will be made upon the
project this summer in the United
States, and the Sorbonne In Paris has
offered chair for three years for
conferences on It. The plan has re
ceived the appreciation of Pope Bene
dict XIV. and both Belgium and Greece
have offered land grants for the site
Of the proposed city.

Japanese Nuns.

Near Tokufuii, Japan, is Sennyuii
a group of buildings noted as the place
of interment Of several of the mikados
during the Kamakura and TOkugawa
periods, writes correspondent. The
graves are not shown; they are ap-
parently very unpretending, quite I'M
like the gorgeous mausoleums of the
Shotgun dynasty, but the place is worth
visiting. Near the gate, / passed a
group of shaven-pated nuns, their de-
nuded SUBMITS glstening in the sun
not walking with demurely downcast
eyes telling their beads, but with jolly
laughter telling each other some joke.
Buddhist nunship appears TO be little
more than a cheerful relinquishment
of domestic and economic anxieties;
though one would think they must feel
intentionally cool in the winter. The
extensive grounds Of Sennyuji are
beautifully kept. There is a wide
main walk lined with expresses with
sidepaths leading to various shrines !;
all are covered with granite sand; al
the end Is a similarly sanded court
Yard about $50 feet square, with a
screen running along one side; the
roofs are toarded with cylindrical
tiles stamped at the end with the To-
petaled chrysanthemum.

WANT NEAR beer
TO SAVE BARLEY
Minnesota Men Plead With Congress
To Utilize Grain Crop in North
ern Iowa and the North
west States.
DECLARE NO KICK IN
2.75 PER CENT BEER
Claim They Are Not Representing
Brewery Interest, But Farmers
of Northwest, Who Would
Gain $500, 900, 900.

Washington, ID. C.-Non-intoxi-
eating 2.75 per cent barley-malt will
be authorized by congress for con-
sumption in Iowa and all other states
| if the advice of r. A. Jones and
Charles Kenny, two representatives
of Minnesota grain producers, is TAX
en-. The two grain producers APP
peared before the joint congressional
agricultural inquiry commission to
urge the legalizing of this new brand
of beer in order that the S0,000,000
bushels of barley raised in northern
Iowa and the northwest states can
be utilized.
This step, these enthusiastic near
beer advocates declared, is the one
sure way to bring immediate relief
to the farmers of the northwest. 1t
would mean, they asserted, an addi-
tional yearly income to them of about
$500, 100000.
Mr.. Jones fatty declared that this
kind of beer is Misunderstanding, and
suggested that the commission es-
tablish this fact thru a testing
squad under the direction of the de-
partment of agriculture. Mr.. Kenny
told the committee that he is from
the same district in Minnesota which
is represented by Representative
Andrew Volstad, the dryest leader
of the national congress. He said
that he has had long experience with
the barley malt beer 2.75 per cent
and that it has never demonstrated
yet that it was Intoxicating.
The movement, Mr.. Jones said, was
purely one by the farmers, and is not
backed by the brewers. He read to
the committee the petition which is
to be circulated among the barley
raisers Of Iowa, Minnesota, the Da-
kotas and Wisconsin. The petition
declares that Equalization of 2.75 bar
ley malt beer would prevent boot
Logging and improve the health OF
1che farmer boys, upon whom SO muci
depended in the future.
II believe that what we advocate,
Mr.. Jones added, sis the salvation
not only of the barley crop, but o.
the whole cereal industry. We are
not interested in beer as beer, but a:
the outlet for the use of S0,000,00(
bushels of barley. We claim this
beer is Notwithstanding and want
that demonstrated. You will be sur
prised at the present attitude of the
country on this question"
The suggestion of the Minnesota
witnesses is being seriously consid,
cred by the joint committee on agri
culture, althO it is frankly admitted
that the overwhelming sentiment il
the house is for absolute prohibition
and that any suggestion of modifi
cation of the eighteenth amendmen'
will be vigorously contested.

Meat lmpor.stions From China.

Chinese meats imported into this
country consist of hams and sausage.
The hams are cured in manner
similar 10 ours, have peculiar odor,
are small, and of poor quality, judged
by American tastes. The sausage IS
prepared from pork. and Is about the
size of thin frankfurter, is hard
and oily, and has an odor pronounced
unpleasant to the occidental nose.
These products are\ consumed eX-
cIuslvely by the Chinese, who consider
them quite a delicacy.

note that our word pencil" comes
from the Latin "penciIlus," which
meant "a little brush or the tail or
"bruslI" of an animal. Also let US be
reminded that the Romans called
their black ink. backing, and that our
word "ink" comes to US through the
French from "encustum," which was
the red ink used by Roman emperors.

In an hours conference with senate

to have Endorsed the view OF Secretary
Mellon that bonus legislation now
might be a serious embarrassment to
the treasury, and even to have sug-
gested that all other legislative bust
ness be suspended to permit compile

soon as possible. He was quoted as
favoring a recess of congress while
committees in charge hasten perfec-

"What'S in 1 Name?"
BY MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; iss history; mean
ing; whence II was derived; sisni6csnce,
your lucky day and lucky level
LOIS

r DIS Is really a masculine name.
II 1t means famous war" and
comes from the Teutonic nomenclature
through the Karling romances. Lois or
Loiz, as it is sometimes spelled, is
really Louis.
The French king whom tho
French knew as Louis de De-
bonnaire was originally called Lludui-
Gus. The PrOvencal promptly soft
ened the name to Alloys, but so pOpu-
lar did Louis become that no member
Of the French royal family was christ
ened without it. Finally the soft
Alloys gained favor throughout
France, and the "a was dropped, pro-
ducing the musical Logs. The Bre.
tons were already using the name Of
Loiz, so the "Y" in Logs disappeared
and Lois appeared and remained per.
manent.
Logs was the only form of the
innumerable versions of Louis that be-
came applied rs feminine name.
SPANS Lois has never wavered from
its masculine Interpretation. nor has
the Luiz of Portugal. France formed
an Heloise from Lois and Louise
might possibly be called an equivalent
for Lois il it We're not for that strain
of Provincial.
Lois has been given In baptism gen
orally as q name of sentiment. 1t il
trfle difficult to pronounce but Is
undoubtedly beautiful and extraordi
narily popular in this country.
The talismanic gem assigned to Loi.
is the onyx. 1t should be worn will
care as 1t is inclined to cool affection
provoke discord and separate lovers
but worn by Lois it prevents these
very misfortunes. Monday is her lucky
day and 4 her lucky number.

THE PASSENGER PIGEONS.
VXyHERE roam We now, We nOmads
w Of the air?
The old-time heralds Of our old
time Springs?
Once, when we heard the thunder
Of your wings.
We looked upon the woodland Spring
was there.
One time your armies swept across
the sky,
Your feathered millions In a mighty
march
Filling with life and music all the
arch
Where now a lonely swallow fiutters
by.
Where roam We now, We nomads of
the air?
In what far land? What undiscOv-
cred place?
Ye may have found the refuge Of
the race
That mortals visit but In dream and
prayer.
Perhaps in some blest land We wing
your flight,
Now undisturbed by murder and by
greed,
And there await the coming Of the
freed
Who shall emerge, like We, from earth
and night.
