Champ Disappoints Waiting Crowds To Greet Mother First

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. July D. Jack Dempsey disappointed a large crowd who were awaiting his arrival at the station today. He jumped from the train one block from the depot. got on a street car and imme- diately proceeded to the home of his mother. State, county and city of ficials. together with members of the chamber of commerce and others, were on hand to greet him while a band played When Johnny Comes Marching Home"
 After the train had pulled into the depot and it was seen that Dempsey was not among the passengers, sew eral of the crowd jumped into their automobiles and speeded to his moth- CTS home. As result. they reached the destination ahead of Dempsey. who after he had embraced his mother for moment was compelled to accede to their wishes and he was escorted uptown, where he was busy shaking hands for more than thirty minutes. The delegation of motor ists then allowed him to return home.
 Dempsey said he was tired due to the long train journey and that was the reason he evaded the crowd at the depot.

FL PASO, Texas, July 9.-Charles F. Robinson, fireman on the Southern Pacific lines. was arrested late today at Maria, Texas and lodged in the Presidio county jail, in connection with the death of Engineer William F. Bohlman.
 The arrest followed an investigation of the murder of Engineer Bohlman and the explosion of the boiler of the locomotive of a westbound Southern Pacific freight train near Paisano.

 Peace Resolution
[ IRepubIlcan A. P. Leased WIrel

BERLIN. July '9.-Ellis Loring Dresei. United States commissioner in Berlin, today communicated to the German foreign office an unofficial copy of the compromise Porter-Knox resolution ending the state of war be- twen the United States and Germany.
 This copy was the first detailed in- formation received by the Berlin gov ernment concerning the action of the
 United States.
 Active unofficial negotiations are
 now being carried on between the American commission and the Ger
 man foreign office concerning a final peace treaty.
 The reichstag adjourned before the full text of the resolution was re- ceived. Consequently the document was not submitted to the foreign af- fairs committee.
 But the committee will probably be called together as the negotiations progress.

 CRIME WAVE DUE ID WAR COSTING U. {. MILLIONS IF DOLLARS YEARLY.
(ey Newspaper Enterprise)

NEW YORK, July Civilian B. Joyce, president of the National Sure ty Co. adds a s100.e00.000 hitherto unmentioned item to Americas war cost.
 This huge sum is the estimated cost of the 1920 crime wave, which Joyce says is traceable to the effect of the war on humanity. It is constantly growing figure, he points out. for if the present ratio is maintained, crime losses for 1921 will be equally as large.
 More serious than money. he says. is the unprecedented addition to the ranks of Americas criminals
 Joyce based his $10o.000000 esti- mate upon the embezzlement and bur glary claims paid for 1920 by 50 of the eountry's leading safety and burglary insurance companies.
 These companies paid claims aggre- gating s15,s13,672, while in 1913. be- fore the outbreak of the war, claims for only s3.328,7S9 were paid. But Joyce says that approximately 90 per cent of burglary and embezzlement losses are not insured, and that in many instances where full claims were paid, the insurance was far too small to cover the actual losses. Every war is followed by wide spread disrespect of law. Joyce says. Cynical thoughts of the cheapness of human life, indifference to human suffering and disregard of others rights are aftermatlls of armed con flict.
 Agitators find more ready field for the spread of their doctrines. This has a two-fold effect: more people actually come to believe principles of discontent and many. though not actually believing, find fancied justi- fication in these doctrines for acts of lawlessness involving property.
 The spread of discomfort during and after the world war was greatly augmented by the oft-repeated re- ports of enormous profits piled up during the war. Men ask why these war profiteers should live in lux ury whily they are hard pressed for enough to live on? | Two other factors in the diScOntent are the belief in the unequal distri- 1 button of wealth, caused By the re- ports of enormous flotations of in veStment securities during and after the war; and the vulgar display of valuables in public places.
 The former leads many to the be- l lief that they are not getting their l share of the tremendous wealth oi the country. The latter causes re- sentiment among the unfortunate, and is also bait that tempts to robbery and makes it easy.
 The disrespect for law has beer
 aided by the prohibition law. Joyce
 believes Many who would not thinL
 of stealing a mans money or jewelrS
 make no bones about takiiifs liquor
 This naturally leads to thefts of othel
 things as well.
 Extravagant living standards can

Ia+ .&a ADMINISTRATION LEADERS MAKING REPORT TO GIVE INDUSTRY START

WASHINGTON, July s-The ex- ecutive and legislative leaders of the administration have agreed upon the program for the next few months.
 This program involves the su- preme effort which is to be made to start the wheels of industry mov- ing. and revive the nations pros perity.
 Congress is to confine itself to two fundamental legislative proposi- tions.
 These are the enactment of a new tariff law and a new internal reve- nue law.
 The tariff law plans contemplate schedules which will raise from $500.- 000, ,000 to S700, 00o, ,000. There will be a lot of opposition to this tariff measure, but the whole power of the administration is behind it. While its passage may be delayed it can not be prevented
 The same can be said of the in- ternal revenue law, through which the great bulk of the governments revenue must be raised.
 No side issues are to be allowed to divert congress from finishing up these two vital pieces of work. This is the word that has been sent down 
 final analysis control the situation in congress.
 It is realized that until the coun- try knows with certainty what the new tariff and internal revenue basis is to be, there can be no real confi- dence in the future
 While congress is working out sits part of the reconstruction program the executive branch of the govern ment under President Harding's di- rection proposes to push through its plans for rehabilitating the. railroads and putting the ten billion foreign debt on a business basis.
 The railroads are to be given relief by refunding their debt to the gov ernment for 10 years. This, together with other relief which will be granted by the Interstate Commerce Commission in the matter of allow ances for maintenance and better ment of the railroads during the war is expected to put the railroads in the market at an early .date as purchas- CTS of supplies.

 WASHINGTON. July 9.-The pres ident and Mrs. Harding left Washing ton late today for week end cruise on the presidential yacht Mayflower in the lower Potomac and Chesapeake bay. At the presidents request the presidential salute and all other mili- tary honors were omitted at the navy yard as the yacht left.

 During the cruise the president probably will work on the special message he will send to congress next week regarding the bonus legislation. He will also talk over shipping board problems with MT. Lasker. The ship ping board chairman was to have conferred with him here today, but the conference was transferred to the Mayflower instead.
