New York-AIrs III. King Reavis,
prima donna, has just completed
very successful European tour and has
returned TO America to visit her fam
lily and recuperate before returning Tor
her 1921 season on the continent.
Mrs. Reavis has set a new high
mark in heI art and music standards,
not only for the artists of her own
race TO attain, but also for all Amer
lean women of artistic bent wha be-
Iieve tnat European approval is neces-
sary as criterion of their success
and ability. This is at least very true
in so far as her reception and career,
filled as they were with triumph after

spices at Royal Albert hall.

and faithful public servants in the
lower house is Hon. c. III. Bond of Lar
inner county. Being II resident of Es-
tes Park, Mr. Bond is naturally good

tions and measures most vital to the
people of Colorado.

families. A man of large means, he

is the silent member of the House. He
is n man of but few words, but Is an
energetic worker, faithful to every
trust. Hon. Halsey NJ RhOads, whom
every Coloradoan knows and loves, is
the Youngest man for his age that can
be found in the state. And he puts
lot of pep and good hard common
sense in bis work as legislator. we
are strong for Halsey. He Is II veteran
newspaper man and an honor to the
craft.
Hon. Chas. C. Sackman of Denver
brings to the Legislature unusual abil-
ity as an attorney. Being member

THE COLORADO STATESMAN
has had occasion to observe the work
ings of our law makers throughout
many years, and can say without pref
udice that the present Legislature
comes nearer being perfect reflex of
the peoples wishes than any other one
in the past twenty years. 1t is Won
derful working machine and each of
the members of the House deserve spe-
cial mention and high words of praise.
We wish that time and space permit
ted us to give each man his full meas
ure of worth to the state. Suffice 1t to
say that it is history-making body,
and the remedial, constructive meas
ures certain to be moulded into law
will leave the commonwealth of Colo
RADIO richer, grander and better than
ever before.
All honor and praise to the Twenty
third General Assembly.

FOR their contributions to the American
Theatcr in the last year.
Tn to the time of going to press no
dire calamity had befallen any one or
the guests who engaged in social CON
verse with the distinguished actor. The
social equality bugaboo, which at
! times becomes an obsession with white
] American afflicted with colorphobia,
was oorapletely forgotten at Sunday

tors work and said: II take pleasure
in introducing the greatest actor of his
race, Mr. Charles S. Gilpin."
The applause greeting this introduce
ton was enthusiastic and lasted for
fully three minutes. The star of EN-
peror Jones' was visibly affected by
such Il rousing ovation, and said:

Henry Lincoln Johnson states that in
accordance with the campaign pledges
that all segregation signs in the vari-
Gus departments would be taken down
before "sundown on March 4th," he
asked special representatives to bestir
themselves and locate some of the said
signs. After a long a=Ci. faithful look,
it was discovered that the Democrats

Ouray county is finely represented
by Hon. A. f. Walther. Coming from
county rich in mineral deposits, Mr.
Walther is eager to bring about legis-

cognizant of the responsibilities of his
office and is certain to remain true TO

Pueblo county is Il district of varied

with the people that should be faith
fully carried out if the party is sue
cessful, and this the present Legisla-
ture plans TO do if the lead of the low
er house is followed. Exceptional high
character and ability is to be found
among the present legislators. Coming
direct from the people, they reflect the
sturdy devotion and rare intelligence
OF tnelr CONSTITUENTS. iht SlNs'~' -
the House, Hon. Roy A. Davis of Ell
Paso, possesses the genius of true
leadership. Always affable, ever
ready to lend listening ear, clear of
vision and keenly alert Mt all times, he
is the ideal presiding officer. More
over, he is absolutely impartial in his
rulings and never seeks to take undue
advantage of an opponent. Colorado
has a larger and more commanding
place for men of the type of Speaker
Davis and he will be heard from again.
He is a splendid gentleman and capa-

he one of the most thoroughly missed
men in Denver when the Assembly
closes. Another statesman of jewish

of any measure he believes in. Anoth-
er legal luminary of unquestioned
brilliancy is Hon. w. b. Gordon of
Prowers. Quiet to n degree and unob-
trusive almost to Il fault, he wlelds
about the largest influence of any
member of the House. He is the
author of the Board of Control bill,
strong administration measure that
bids fair to become law.
Hon Mabel Ruth Baker is n charm-
ing and lOvable bunch of tireless en-
ergy. She Graves no favors because of
the gentleness of her sex and is ready
at all times TO fight for or against any
measure in accordance with the die
tates of her conscience. Dr. Minnie G.
r. Love is another woman legislator
who has keen outlook for the peoples
rights and is as fearless as she is in
tellectual. Teller county made no mis-
take when Hon. Mrs. r. C. Wilson was
sent to the Twenty third Assembly. She
holds the interests of her state dear to
her heart and deserves only words of
high praise.
Hon. Elmer C. Abbey of Weld comes
from county that is almost an em-

DENIED WRIT or INJUNCTION
St. Louis "Open Shop" Printing Organ
ization Ordered to File Suits
as individuals.

Suits of individual employing print
ers involving injunction proceedings
will probably be filed in the United
States district court in the near Pu-
ture, according to Charles A. Houts,
attorney for the st. Louis open-shop
organization. The employers adopted
the alternative outlined by Judge
Wade and decided to let the 81 con-
Meeting suits drop and begin the pro-
ceedings all over again.
The court told the employers that
they must either file petitions for the
81 employing printers as individuals or
accept the dismissal of the suit. In
sustaining a motion for the dismissal
of the suit the judge ruled that the
employers had no cause for action in
an equity court.

COTTON IS BASIS
FOR AUTO TIRES
Gives Stability and Strength
to Well Known
Makes.

Cotton fabric is the foundation upon
which an automobile tire is built. 1t
is used to give stability and strength.
There are two well-known classes of
tires, the square-woven fabric and
the cord tire.
In the square-woven fabric tire the
threads in each ply run in both direc-
tions. alternating over and under as
in a piece of ordinary cloth. In the
cord tire. the threads or cords in each
ply run parallel, with the exception
of few small cross threads, used
simply to hold the cords together
while they are being impregnated
with the rubber compound.
since the square-woven fabric can
not be thoroughly impregnated with
rubber at the points where the threads
cross. f1exing at these points will
cause saving action and the gener-
ating Of internal heat 1t has been
demonstrated very clearly by expert
ment. according to the United States
Tire Company, that. when the temper
ature resulting from internal heat
reaches 23O degrees, vulcanized rubber
ceases to function as an adhesive COM
pound, crumbles into minute particles,
which fail to resume their original
condition. causing the compound to-
lose its function in the tire. This
,, causes separation, weakness, and
finally blowout. 1t may be interest
ing to know that 265 degrees Is not an
uncommon temperature reached in a
tire when driven at high speed over
the road; this is particularly true of
large truck tires.
In the case of cord tires, each thread
Is inbedded in the rubber compound
and the internal friction Is reduced to
q minimum. A brief summary of the ad-
vantages derived from the use of cord
tires would include easier riding, due
to greater resiliency; saving of gaso-
line and oil: saving Of machinery, and
| more miles per dollar.
