CTS, at least, and try to reorganize on harmonious basis for the next cam- paign. But this is never done Per sonal animosities nearly always over- balance the plain fact that all must unite to retrieve the disaster and get ready for a possible victory in the future.
 The fact is that the Democratic party at this time is completely de- moralized by the defeat in November. and it will be some time before the leaders can agree among themselves, and eliminate among themselves the bitter feeling engendered by the dis aster of November. Until this is done reorganization of the party seems to be hopeless task. This will be done, however, in time, and a revivi- fled democracy will rise to again face the enemy in the congressional cleo tions of 1922 and the next national election in 1924 Whether the part will gather sufficient strength to comeback" in either election re- mains to be seen. The Republicans believe it will be many years before the Democrats recover from their de- feat. The Democrats, however, be- lieve otherwise and think they will have a fighting chance to again con- trol congress and the national gov ernment.
 The questions just now are how the $300,000 deficit is to be paid, and who will succeed George H. White as chairman, or shall White be allowed to remain at the helm There is great opposition to allowing White to re- main as chairman, and 1t is not i'm probable that a new chairman will be chosen when the real reorganization of the national committee begins here after next March.
 Certainly the Republican leaders are not worrying over the situation. The longer the Democrats delay their reorganization the better pleased will he the Republicans.

EMPRESS HAS
 FEATURE FILMS
 NEXT FEW DAYS

There is a certain freshness of nov city to the theme of More Trouble' in which Frank Keenan is starring at the Empress tonight, which makes it amusing every foot of the way, and reveals Keenan in a humorous role quite different from the serious char acter parts with which he has been identified in the past.
 The picture contains an ocean of clean, swift moving fun. The plot revolves around a college boy of seemingly exemplary habits, whose return home from school is followed by series of amusing situations in- dicating anything but a quiet career away from home.
 Combined with an interesting Ford educational, a Travelogue and a topi- cal reel an evening of joyous fun and good entertainment is assured. More Trouble' is being shown tonight only
 On Sunday night only, Dorothy Gish in the best picture she has made, Turning the Tables"
 Can you imagine Dorothy as the spirit" in a spirit seance? Or as a suspected 'bug" in a sanitarium? Want to know what tables Dorothy turns? Well, she's president of the Spirit Furniture Movers Association, and turns the table up at gentle manly medium. Then when jeal- ous aunt has her confined to a sani- tarium she turns the tables on the doctors, on the nurse and everyone else, including the aunt.
 On Monday and Tuesday night will be shown the great drama "Dr. JekylI and MT. Hyde" played by John Barry more.
 John Barrymore, the comedian, has given us many hours of pleasant en- tertainment. But it remains for John Barrymore, the supreme dramatic ac- tor to present dual role, depicting two characters as far apart in type, mentally, physically and spiritually, as the poles. Yet each characterize tion vivid, vital, compelling, cameo like in clearness.
 The screen has never before known such acting. Never has more dra- matic material been used.
 Remember 'Dr. Jekyll and Mir Hyde" is billed at the Empress next Monday.

BY COL. WINFIELD JONES


 WASHINGTON, Jan. Is. - Especial Correspondence) - The Democrats will take some time in reorganizing their party and trying to recover from the debacle of the November cleo tions. This was learned here today after interviews with leading Demo- crats of the house and senate and oth- CT Democratic leaders. The opinion of practically all of these men coin cides in the belief that plenty of time and much consideration should be given to the reorganization plans for the party.
 Soon after the November elections announcements were made by various Democratic leaders that steps would be immediately taken to thoroughly reorganize the party. These plans have now been abandoned, temporar- fly at least.
 One of the principal factors that is holding back reorganization of the party is the quiet but intensive fight now going on among the members of the national committee as to who shall gain control of the committee and thereafter, for four years at least guide the national and congressional destinies of the party.
 The national committee has a deficit from the last campaign of about $300,000. Many committeeman feel that the deficit should be paid by the men in control of the party who acted to hold back a reorganization.
 Chairman George H. White, former Chairman Homer Cummings, Secre- tary Tumulty, Finance Director Jamieson, and other of the leaders for some days have been conferring here over the situation. As this was written those leaders had not reached a conclusion as to just what program should be adopted, and from what 
 the committee will first pay off the $30000O deficit and let things be as they are for some time, before a full reorganization is made At least no steps will be taken toward that end until after MT. Harding is inau- gurated president March 4, next. It is believed that the deficit will be paid by then, and soon thereafter the national committee will meet in New York or Washington and complete reorganization will be made.
 This reorganization will be in plenty of time for the national com mittee and the Democratic con gressional committee to get ready for the fight over the election of a new congress in 1922. It is reported both committees intend to wage vigor- ous campaign to try to overturn the great Republican house majority and the big Republican senate majority in the congress which was elected last November.
 It is known that great deal of bit ter feeling exists among high off cials and members of the Democratic national committee, and the con- gressional committee as well, over the defeat of the party in the Novem- Der elections. This situation is noth- ing new because always after a po- litical defeat the defeated fall out among themselves, instead of trying to find the real reasons for the dis aster, with view to avoiding the de- feat factors in the future. It would seem after defeat any party would draw closer together, among the lead

ECONOMIC STkEFk
RACES In SWEDEN
Scandinavian Country Is Undergoing
Turmoil Similar to That in
America
by Associated Press

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 1S.-Sweden
like the United States, is undergoing
a period of economic re-adjustment
involving the closing down of facto-
ries and red u ion of wages in an eff
fort to cut the cost of production.
Swedish manufacturers declare they
are compelled to do this in order to
place their manufactures on a level
which will enable them to compete
with German, American and English
production. Many Of the factories and
mechanical lines began in December
to dismiss their workers gradually by
laying off ten to 20 per cent of them
weekly. When the employees inquired
why this was done they were inform
ed that the scale of wages averag-
ing the equivalent of $40 a day at
the present rates of exchange must
be cut. They were told that unless
they accepted such a reduction the
shop would be closed.
In most cases the workmen refused
and the factories were shut down for
part of this month: but a reaction
against this policy became noticeable
before the beginning of the new year.
New agreements between employ
ers and workers usually are made in
many lines at the beginning of the
year. This time there was a collision
of the workmen's demands for higher
wages with the employers announce
ment that they would have to be cut.
Swedish employers now have no
fear of strikes but. on the contrary,
say they would welcome them be-
cause of lack of orders and dull pros
poets which seem to be likely to re-
suit in further dismissals of thou
sands of Sworkmen.
Attempt on the part of America to
exclude or reduce the number of i'm
migrants is reported to have had an
influence in producing a concilia-
tory frame of mind among the work.
men. Heretofore the Swedish worker
has had America to fall back on in
case of labor troubles at home. Now
he is beginning to doubt whether he
will continue to enjoy this opportunity
to emigrate.

TEAM PROSPECTS
TOLD BY PLAYER
(By L. Sarra)


There Is a wealth of material on
hand at the Knights of Columbus gym
every night and the following men
will probably make the first team.
Braswell, who was elected captain, is
one of the best forwards showing up
at the practices. He is big. speedy
and a sure basket thrower
Lars Sanchez will be the best bid
for the other forward and he is con-
sistent player with plenty of pep.
Ham Gaines will be the pivot and is
one of the best players on defense
and offense IN all round playing on the
team.
III. Philippart, who played stellar
football as fullbaek with Pensacola
will play even a better game as run
ming guard on the basket ball team,
while w. Bjorsen will easily get the
other berth at guard. He Is a close
follower-up of Sanchez for the berth
as forward and his height is the only
drawback to his playing center.
The following men will probably
keep the first team in shape and will
sub for the various positions: II. c..
Sara, a good forward though a little
light, is an accurate thrower; Bob
Ellis, the brainiest little forward on
the squad, handles pass better than
any man on the team; H. Jeudeyine,
who has been playing center but has
now changed to forward. plays the
floor with ease and rings baskets from
all angles; L.. Sara will play his old
position at center while at guard; s.
Forsyth is of the first teams class
and Is available for that team at any
time; A. Oliver is a fine guard and
with little more speed he will be
counted on the first team.

KANSANS COMPLETE
TWO YEARS WORK
Have Revised All Laws of United
States in Two Volumes.

LAWRENCE, Kan, Jan. 17.-Revi-
sion OF all tho laws of the United
states into q single volume OF moro
than 100000 words, making the
largest law book in existence, was
undertaken and carried through by
two Kansans. The book is indexed.
Acceptance of the work is now be-
fore the United Stktes Semitic. 1t
was approved by the house in bin
passed Dec. 90.
The last revision OF the federal stat
utes was made in 1878. For years
the legal profession has been clamor-
ing for a fresh revision.
The task proved to be huge. The
material began with the revised edi-
tion OF 1873 and ran through 20 other
large volumes, the statutes at large,
containing laws enacted since that
time up to March 4. 1919.
The work of revision consisted Of
arranging all titles. cutting out all OBJ
solete matter. re -writing head notes
ana consolidating paragraphs.
Existing law was preserved in a
general re-arrangement, codiflcation
and revision.
The task was carried out by the
house committee on revision of the
laws. For many years the work of
this committee has been little more
than nominal, but when Congressman
u. C. Little of the second Kansas dis
trict became chairman in March, 1919,
he proposed revising the federal laws
and publishing them In one volume.
The committee, composed Of a doz-
en- eminent judges and lawyers, gave
its hearty approval In the follow
ing June DIR. William l. Burdick. pro-
lessor of law and vice. chancellor Of
tho University (of Kansas was APP
pointed reviser OF the statutes.
From then on until its completion
last month. DR.. Burdick was busted
with the work. Ten advisers were
engaged at various times, DIR. Bur-
dick however. being the only reviser
TO work through from beginning to
the end. and acting as senior adviser.
Two other advisers were added later
10 speed up progress so that the re-
vision could be presented to the pres
ent Congress.

WEST AFRICA HAS
ASKED FREEDOM

LONDON, Jan. 17.-West Africa is
the latest country to seek home rule
"A mission, representative of educated
opinion in British West Africa, has
arrived here to urge upon the celon-
ial office number of reforms in the
internal administra ton of the four
West African colonies and protector
ates, Sierra Leone, the Gold Coast,
Nigeria and the Gambia, says the
London Times.
The mission has been sent to this
country by the National Congress of
British West Africa, and seeks in the
first place the creation of a legisla-
tive council which will be composed
one-half of members chosen by the
crown and one-half of members elect
ed by the people. and for house of
assembly which would have complete
control of the revenue and expendi-
ture.
As to local government, the mis-
sion urges that municipal corpora
tons should be esta blished in each OF
the principal towns of the colonies
The judicial system of British West
Africa, in particular Nigeria, is criti-
cised by the mission which states that
at present. at is the practice to APP
point to judicial offices Europeans
who have not received any legal
training and who are not competent
to exercise judicial functions"
Among other suggested reforms they
seek: The establishment of a West
African university; the removal of
the color bar in the West African
medical service and the introduction
of immigration laws to prevent the
influx of undesirable aliens to Brit
ish West Africa.
