Rock Island. ILL.,. May 2s.-The United
States army has developed 80 calibre
machine gun capable of firing bullet
which at 200 yards will penetrate the
one inch arrnor plate of battle tanks.
Major Lee o. v light. army ordnance
'tiepar rtment, announced yesterday at
the annual convention of the ordnance
section of the American Society of Me-
chanical Engineers.
The new weapon is an outgrowth OF
the war, he said. when lighting tanks
verc armored to resist the 80 cafibre
bullet then in use.
The SO calibre machine gun fires a
bullet weighing 500 grains, as compared
to the $50 grains of the standard 80
calibre ammunition.
The gun is modelled along the plan
of the Browning machine gun.
The United States has on hand re-

the world war, sufficient to supply the
army in case of war until production

twenty months for the Ordnance De-
partment to catch up with the army in
the field.
The present problem he said is to re-
place explosive as they deteriorate and
other material as it becomes obsolete.
The present munitions reserve he es-
timated to be worth $500 900 and
added that to replace the ammunition
every Is years as it deteriorates and the
other munitions every thirty years,
would cost $50 100000 annually.

PRESS AND PROPAGANDA.

One of the greatest of British newspapers is the
Manchester Guardian. 1t is as sane and human as
is given a newspaper TO be. 1t is in all of its inten-
tons what its name would imply. Respecting the sub
ject of publicity or propaganda it says in a recent
issue:
Nobody can have ever taken a share in the con-
duct of a newspaper without feeling the force of the
temptation to make news subserTient to opinion. The
modern science of publicity has proved more conclu-
sively than ever that the most formidable weapon
which can be used against any cause is simply silence.
Actors and authors, managers and publishers, dread
no criticism so much as mere absence of notice. Poll
tieians thrive upon being attacked. It is only when
they are ignored that they begin to languish. 1t is the
breath of life to everybody whose work is a more or
less constant ca1l for public attention that all the allo-
cation of space in the press should be governed by an
honest attempt at equity as between what each pa
per likes and what it dislikes in the way of opinion.
An editor who felt his party likely to be heavily dam
aged by some argument in a speech in parliament
could probably do three times as much to lessen the
damage by emitting the argument from his parlia-
mentary report as he could by countering it in a lead
ing article These things are understood now as they
have never been before. They are the basis of an ex-
traordinary growth of what is loosely called 'Propa-
ganda'-the business of palming off upon the public,
as information offered for information's sake, state
ments which seem to be of fact, but are subtly medi-
Gated with suggestions advantageous to some party.

TRYING TO FILM KANSAS.

Things are a little lurid down in Kansas these days.
1t is regarded by the non-partisan league as fertile
ground for the sowing of seed that will flourish and
it is hoped bring forth a crop of converts to a fool
fad that has been discredited Everywhere else ani
driven out Townley, himself, is present and as usual
having his difficulties. While there are a number
born every second it is believed that they are not be-
ing born in Kansas. To a degree the Townely move
ment recalls the old populistic days with this excep.
tion-the people are not embracing the new faith as
readily as they did populism and the opponents are
more numerous and more alive to the dangers of
ship wreck.
Kansas has passed through so many disastrous ex-
periences, that she is both wise and leary and be-
sides Kansas civilization is of a higher order than that
of North Dakota and is in need of no imported instruc-
ton, having shown a remarkable aptitude in caring
for herself and the troubles that arise within her
domain.
Townley and his disciples have encountered much
rough shedding and natives say there is more to come.
Meanwhile debates are in progress with every pros
pect that Kansas will not be led astray.

THRILLING SENATORIAL DEBATE.

If some digniifea senator in the solemn senate Of
the United States should rise in his place and chant
several paragraphs from some ancient patent office
report we imagine the audience would get about the
same thrill out of it as it did out of this much of the
record faithfully reported by the Congressional
Record:
Mr.. King (of Utah)II feel sure that this colloquy
between the senator from Idaho (Mr. Borah), and my
self wiz make converts on the other {the Republican,
side. -F
Mr.. Kenyon should like to ask the senator from
Utah, in view of the fact that there are now only eight
senators in the chamber, where he expects these con-
verts to come from as a result of the debate?
Mr.. King-Sometimes Mr.. President, the truth, dis
covered or proclaimed in this chamber, percolates be-
yond these walls. Perhaps those who are absent in
body are here in spirit.
Mr.. Borah-And vice versa.
Mr.. Williams-Above all things, the senator ought
to help me to get rid of what we call 'the courtesy of
the senate"
Mr.. BorahI did not know we had any.
Mr.. Williams-oh, yes; we have it-well, not real
courtesy, but the courtesy of inimicality toward pri-
vate people recommended for office without the pre-
vious sanction of a senator who may be, and often is,
the bitter personal enemy of the appointee, for no bet
ter reason than that the appointee has never admired
the senator as "a statesman"

THE KING OF DREAMS.

Some must delve when the dawn is nigh;
Some must toll when the MONDAY beams;
But when night comes and soft winds sigh
Every man is a King of DreamsI
One must plod while another must ply
AT plow or loom till the sunset streams,
But when night comes and the moon rides high
Every man is a King of Dreamsl
One is slave to a masters cry,
Another serf to g despot seems,
But when night comes, and the discords die,
Every man is a King of DreamsI
This You may sell and that you may buy, t'
And this you may barter for gold that CLEANS, )
But there's one dream that is fixed for aye
Every man is a King Of Dreams!

List of unat Bondsmcn.

Mr.. Lavelle then referred to the fact
that in each of the magistrates courts
there is 1.-The District Attorneys list
of unit bondsmen," bearing the names
and addresses Of such bondsmen. The
clerks in thess courts are required to
certify that the surety named is not on
this list.
Mr.. Lavelle also declared that all
bonds are thoroughly investigated, ex-
cepting those supplied by the surety COM
panies, which operate under certificates
from the State superintendent of Insur-
ance. This precludes investigation by
the District Attorney. He further said
that the surety companies before execut-
ing a bail bond exact from the per-
son or persons acting in prisoners be-
half an agreement of indemnity. Of this
he said 81 understand that such agree
ments contain confession of Judgment
which is executed by the indemnifier."
This indemnity consists usually Of real
estate. stocks. bonds or bank books.
Mr.. Lavelle appended an itemized
record of all bonds written in 1920. II
shows a majority of them were written
by two agents whose offices are within
the shadow of the Criminal Courts Build
ing.
Continuing. Mr.. Lavelle said: 1T not
lnfrequently happens that while a Grim
inal is out on bail he commits a second
offence and is arraigned before mag
istrate who has no knowledge Of the
criminal record of such defendant or of
the fact that at the time he is on ball.
and for that reason would not be war
ranted in making bail so high as to
practically secure his detention in GUS
tody until he could be put to trial.
''If may be permitted to make sug-
gcstion. l believe that when person is
arrested and arraigned before city
magistrate charged with serious crime
the arresting officer should be required
to procure with the least possible delay
and present to such magistrate the previ-
Gus criminal record of such defendant.
The magistrate would then be in a posi-
tion to know what would be a suitable
amount of bail to exact"
The New York herald., 1921-01-02

| In view of the fact that we were led TO
believe from that conference that our
retirement from the business would be
regretted by the District Attorneys Of
flee, we decided to continue TO furnish
bail bonds and to conduct business In a
way that could not be criticised by any
body.
Our bail bond business consists of so
triflng an amount OF our total busi-
ness--not much more than one-quarter
of one per cent.-that we should not
hesitate to abandon IL. For the year
just ending IL will have yielded us about
$4,000 revenue, while our total reve-
nues will aggregate close TO 100000
600"
Before Judge Swami announced the
coming investigation he had received a
detailed report on the subject from Mr.
Iavelle. chief Of the bail bond bureau
OF his office. Mr.. Lavelle in his report
said. in part:
II beg TO say that after my long ex-
perience as the head of the Bureau of
Bail and Forfeited Recognlzances ] have
I come to the conclusion that the profess
sionai criminal invariably makes ar
rangements in advance for the procure
ment of the bail for the commission OF
the crime itself, the matter of bail being
to his mind quite as important an item
as the commission OF the crime and the
disposition of the proceeds thereof.
aside from the companies duly au-
thorized to write bail bonds the number
of professional bondsmen In New York
county has been reduced TO minimum.
This.J attribute in great part to the Sc
we're test to which they are subjected as
to their qualifications, so far as this Of
fee is concerned, before accepting them
l'and the rapidity with which judgments
are entered against them when any of
their bonds are forfeited"

"Because.-of some abuses that seem
