For one reason there will be
fewer Democrats in the next Con-

who will be so ardently in favor of
the league as when President Will

declaration was:
1T is the declared policy of the
United States, in order to meet fully
and fairly our obligations to our

freedom and peace of Europe being
again threatened by any power or
combination OF powers. the United
States will regard such a situation
with grave concern as a menace to

eCLCEAdAN KILLED AND TWO MEN WOUNDED BY AMUCK
DO YOU BELIEVE IN FAIRIES?
WOMAN Thee OSOPFIIST CLAIMS
WOODS ARE FILLED WITH 'EM
Man Has Lost His Dominion Over Sprites,
Miss Fairbank Asserts in Lecture.

Do fairies still exist? Arc fairy
tales more than a pack Of nonsense
and are the woods and fields filled
with a host of beings invisible TO
normal vision?
Miss Isabel Furbank, English
Theosophist. declared last night that
fairies have actual existence and
may be seen by those who possess
the vision.
Miss Furbank. who discussed
''Theosophy in Modern Fiction" be-
fore the TheosophicaI Society last
night. says that the fairy stories
in our literature have a foundation
in fact.
She also asserts that the tendency
in modern fiction toward employing
psychic subjects. reincsrnation, and
other mystical theories of life and
death are reflections Of fundamental
truths that have been known to the
initiated in all ages. Theosophy is
the modern name for this ancient
body of tIuths, she says.
Once Under Mans Dominion.
Theosophists call these forms
"elementals,' nonhuman spirits
over whom man once had dominion.
He has now lost this dominion, save
in a few individual cases. The fairy
photographs for which Sir Conan
Doyle now vouches were pictures Of
these "elementals." Miss Furbsnk
says.
Miss. Furbank quoted Leadbeater.
the Theosophical writer, who in his
book. The Hidden Side Of Things"
declares that the fields and woods
and countryside are filled with
sprites inperceptible to normal
sight.
Folklore is generally the survival
Of the appearance OF "elementals.
an occurrence most rare these days.
Miss Furbank says.
Fairy tales of sprites. nymphs
and ghost stories can frequently be
explained on the basis OF earth
bound spirits" Miss Furbsnk eN-
planned. We may divide these

Man Lost His Power.
The salamanders. sylphs. rnomes.
the creatures of extreme beauty
whom the Abbey Montfaucon De
Nillare, Rosicrucian monk, wrote of
in INA, have existence in fact. Miss
Furbank declared. The iritistes
have power over these beings and
can control and direct them as they
will The able declared that this
was the natural power of man. but
that he had lost il.
Miss Purbank declares that all
this unseen world around us is re-
hected in modern fiction. A few mod
ern writers whom she cited were
Algernon Blackwood. r. Marion

DISABLED YANKS
HOLD UPROARIOUS
PROTEST SESSION
Threaten to Bodily Throw
Out Man Who Defends
Vocational Board.

More than 400 veterans OF the
world war were almost unanimous
In shouting threats Of violence
against b. r. Stewart. a former SOL
der, at a mass meeting in Polls
Theater yesterday. when Stewart
demanded that George II. Giilin,
nstional commander of the National
Disabled Soldiers League. retract
accusations Of inefficiency made by
him against officials of the Federal
Board of Vocational training.
Threats Of ejecting Stewart were
made when John T. Nolan, an OFF,
Ger of the organization. which has
headquarters at the ,Ebbitt, Hotel
declared Stewart to be a stool
pigeon" and "puppet" Of the Fed
eral board.
Leaves Meeting.
Cries of Throw him OUT" were
heard on all sides before Stewart
complied with the request of Nolan
of walking out peacefully before
the others throw you out bodily"
The meeting was arranged to
protest against the proposed reduc-
tion Of compensation Of disabled
war veterans while In training.
Charges that the suffering of thou.
sands of disabled men was due to
the ineficiency of the Vocational
Training Board and War Risk In
surance Bureau were made by Gillin
and the other speakers.
1t was while Nolan was talkine
from the stage that Stewart arose
and said: II received a square deal
from the Vocational Training Board
and think It is unfair to attack
the officials. and unless the charges
can be substantiated demand that
Gillin apologize"
Gillin was not on the stage at the
time and Nolan answered by brand
ing Stewart "a stool pigeon and
puppet of the board"
Gfllin Replies.
Stewart replied by saying: II am a
soldier who was wounded in France
and have a voice here Unless Gill
lin can produce his evidence insist
on an apology"
During a verbal battle amid wild
disorder, Gillin walked to the CEN
ter of the stage and remarked:
What ! gay goes and I'll produce
my evidence IL a Senate investiga-
ton of the board can be arranged"
Quiet was restored when Stewart
left. The meeting continued on a
peaceful basis.
A Washington City post was
formed with a membership of 1S2.
Nolan was MADE commander. Be-
