PEOPLE OF HELGOLAND
OPPOSE GERMAN RULE

HELGOLAND, Germany, July %
(By The Associated Press THE peo-
pie of Helgoland have sent a petition
to the league of nations asking for
naturalization of the island under
protection of the league or re-anneXa-
tion to Great Britain. They express
high hopes that the September meet
ing of the league will relieve them of
German control, which natives of
Helgoland, born under the British
flag, declare to be highly offensive
and in violation of many of the terms
of the agreement under which Eng
land ceded the island to Germany IN
1890 in exchange for Zanzibar.

Congressman Johnson Jumps
at Witness Who Shouts:
You Are a Liar!"
SPECTATORS IN PANIC
Kentucky Representative is
Held Back; Disturbance
Causes Adjournment

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The Berg.
doll investigation broke up in a row
today while Representative Johnson
of Kentucky. Democratic member of
the committee, was trying to reach a
brother of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll.
who had called him a liar.
The Kentuckian made quick
plunge toward Charles A Braun. of
Philadelphia, the witness, but half d
dozen men, including members of the
committee, seized him and kept him
in corner of the room until Braun
could be hurried away by the SER
geant-at-arms of the house.
The clash, coming suddenly after an
hours fiery cross-examination. threw
the spectators, many of them women,
into an uproar. Expecting serious
trouble, there was a rush for the
doors, some men tumbling under the
tables.
BY bodily force Johnson was re-
strained from getting in close to
Braun. who had shouted you are a
liar" The Kentucky members hand
was in his side trousers pocket as
Chairman Peters, Representative
Flood, Democrat, Virginia, and others
surrounded and held him.
Joseph G. Rodgers. sergeant-at-arms
of the house, sitting directly behind
Braun, took him by the arm and hur
ried for the door, as the voice of the
chairman, rising above the uproar. de-
clared the meeting adjourned.
Called BY Campbell
Braun, who changed his name be-
cause of the notoriety resulting from
the acts of his draft lodging brothers,
had been called as a witness by Major
Bruce r. Campbell, accused by Berg
dolls mother of accepting $4,000 to
aid in the slacker's escape. His direct
testimony had been concluded when
Johnson took him in hand.
Then followed a long cross fire
bearing on an interview John H.
Sherburne, committee cousel, had
with Mrs. Bergdoll at Philadelphia 10
days ago relating to charges against
Campbell Johnson tried to develop
whether Grover Bergdoll in a letter
to his mother had mentioned army Of
ficers or counsel by name. Insisting
that he never heard of the alleged
payment to Campbell and that he did
not remember what Grover might
have written, the witness declared
that some of Mrs. Bergdol's mail had
been opened by government agents.
Finally Johnson charged that Braun
was not answering questions frankly
and was not telling all he knew.
Resume Probe Monday
"You are trying to evade my ques-
tions," Johnson said. when the wit
ness seemed unable to say just how
Mrs Braun, on her way to join her
children at camp in the Pennsyl-
vania mountains, could be reached be-
fore Braun could communicate with
her.
81 am not trying to; evade your
questions" Braun insisted.
"You are not trying-you are sue
ceeding." Johnson declared.
NO. am not"
"You are. Why cant yor come
here and tell the TRUTH"
81 am telling the truth"

MISSING DOLLARS

Everybody is getting poorer-in dollars. But
there are practically as many dollars in exis-
tence as ever. This puzzles a reader. He asks,
'.Where have all the dollars gone to? Who has
them?"
Money in circulation for every person in the
country was $34.6S in 1918. 1t increased to a
high point of s59.4s last November. Now it is
down to about $50.

appearing faster than they are taken from cir

RIPPING RHYMES

HARD ON HIRAM


Low lies the form of Hiram Hor-
ner, out in his %boneyard bower; he
swung his car around a corner at
forty miles an hour. He might have
made the curve at twenty, with safe
ty first in view; for he had time to
spare a~-plenty; no urgency he knew.
Before him stood a mighty hoard
ing that shut the street from sight;
but madly he wen henry-fording,
and turned sharp to the right.
Around the turn a truck was plug
cling. a truck of ample power. and
into it old Hi went chugging at forty
miles an hour. 1t was a mad and
foolish caper for M possessed of
brains, and with a sheet of blotting
paper we soaked up his remains
Now other fools may go a-fiying, in
viting sudden death, but Hiram in his
crate is lying, beneath the dewey
heath. And other nuts will make us

strung along the lengthy and wind
ing river. Thriving industries raise
their smokestacks beside the stream
whose legendary color is blue but
whose true tint varies from a dirty
green to muddy yellow. More tragic
than the encroachment of factory
smoke has been in late years the sad
sight of countless chimneys from
which the life-breath of industry has
seemed to have expired forever.
Hohenzollern Castle on Banks
Near its source at Donaueschin-
gen. the river passes between the
castle which gave it's name to the
late ruling family in Germany and
a war monument to the H~ohenzoliern
men who fell in the Franco-Prus-
sian War. Farther down it passes
| through the once-proud capital of
Austria Hungary, where the fine gov
eminent buildings stand to the de-
spairing inhabitants as a hooking
reminder of better days. and beside
the Prater, once a deer park and
later a pleasure garden noted for
it's Viennese gaiety.
"Still farther along its cours just
after entering Czecho-Slovakia, at its
junction with the March, there is a
towering cliff spired with a monu-
ment erected to celebrate one thou

This is Czechoslovakian territory

Stars and Stripes were draped on

@. Can the name of a farm be

@. Can the name of a farm be
trademarked ?-D. A. O..
A. The Patent Office says that a
trademark may be obtained for the
| name of a farm. If a farmer uses
| his farm name as a part of his
selling operation in marketing his
products, the trademark protects
! him in it's use in interstate COM
| merce.
@. When was the first dredge
| boat used?-R. E. H..
A. The earliest recorded use of a
| dredge boat was that employed by
Boulton and Watt for use on the
weir at Sunderland, England in
1895.
O.. Why will milk turn to clabber
within a day, when kept in a cool
placer. X.
A, The cause of milk turning to
clabber so quickly is probably that
the utensils used in milking are not
thoroughly sterillzed. This encour-
ages the growth of bacteria. Be-
| sides sterilizing utensils, the udders
of the cow should be washed before
milking and the hands of the mixer
washed and dried.
@. Is it known how London got
it's name?-W. F. l..
A. The derivation of the name
London is obscure. Some au-
thorities believe it to be a combina-
ton of the old British words "lyn"
meaning lake" and din" meaning
town" possibly because until re-
cent times the southern side Of the
River Thames was practically
swamp.
@. How long after a will is made
does it become void?-K. r. D..
A. A will does not become void
after any specified length of time.
A mans last will is valid at his
death.
@. Did Corot receive high prices
for his pictures, or did he die a poor
manu-. NJ.
A. Corot, the French landscape
painter, exhibited his first picture
in the Salon in 1927, but it was not
till nearly 20 years later that his
genius as a painter was generally
recognized. He was then about so
years Of age. The last rs years of
his life were spent in different cir
cumstances ,as his professional in
come was very large, and he inher-
tied a fortune from his father.
@. What is the best thing to do to
control weeds on farms?-G. T. A.
A. The systematic rotation of
crops is the most feasible and effec-
tive means of controlling weeds.
Weeds thrive under conditions IA
vorable to one crop. may not with
another, and crop rotation keeps
the land from becoming foul with a
certain class of weeds.
@. To settle a controversy: What
is the main idea embodied in the
writings of Isiah?-A. A.
A. Throughout his writings Is
iah's contention is that people are
saved only through right conduct
It is because of the deep impression
that his message had on his own
and later generations that he is
regarded as the true type of prophet
of Yahwe.

They are very simple. and can be

Nearly any man a double the
effectiveness of his own personality

he can do it not by adding expendi-

The largest economic waste in in

element. 1t can be conserved and Is
worth conserving.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-09-28

Competition has forced men at the
head of nearly every business to take
up the slack and reduce the margin
of waste. Treatises are written show
ing how firms now earn their entire
dividend out of what they formerly
wasted.
There are plans for the conserva-
ton of raw material and plans
for the conservation of the finished
article. and for it's more economical

zation of all the elements that en-
ter into production and distribution.
But what 1 should like to see
would be a better utilization of the

1 am convinced that many a man
could get twice as much productive

| he now does if he knew-how.
1 do not advocate the working OF
more hours. nor the forcing of the
human machine at higher gear. l

labor and have the work done under

work done in the early morning is

with calm assurance that he is equal
to the job, eat a light breakfast, and
take up the big job while the mind

Of capital, says Samuel M. vauclain, president
OF the Baldwin Works.
Yet capital, measured in terms of buying
instead of face value, is just as big now as dur
ing the 1918 boom.
Less money is available for business. But
that's compensated by the fact that prices and
wages are down so that business can do as much
with. say 60 cents, as it formerly could with IL.
Available capital didn't actually increase dur
ing the war. While the boom was on, business
was conducted largely on imaginary captain
t!ated dollars. Now the dollar has run out OF
war booze and is SOLDERING up. The delusion, the
imaginary capital, is gone. But the loss is not
actual-merely one of bookkeeping.
In 1914 a man bought a share of stock for
$50. It rose to $3.50 during the war. That man
thought he had made 5000. So he had-if ne
casbed in, which few did. Most couldn't resist
waiting for the profit to reach 5000. The In
crease was imaginary-what Wall Street calls
paper millions"
Now the stock is down to $50 again. And the
owner walls that he has lost 5000. He hasn't
lost anything. What he thinks he lost ne never
had. 1t never really existed.
A railroads stocks and bonds fluctuate daly'
vet the tracks, freight cars and so on remain
unchanged. Stocks and bonds merely are Ger
tlfcates of ownership in property. The prop
erty hasn't changed, though an increasing buy
ing mower of the dollar makes 1t look as IL the

stove.

MExICO'S COME BACK

Mexico is not yet out Of the woods, by any
means, but there is every evidence that the he
public, under the strong rule of General Obregon
is on the road to better days. American capital
is welcomed there, for the first time since the
days of Porfirio Diaz, and there seems every
reason to expect an amicable adjustment of the
troublesome disputes over Oil concessions and
exports. The latest encouraging feature in the
news is the purchasing of ocomotives-nearly
100 of them within three months--for use on
the various railroads of the republic.
These purchases, which are being made on a
partial payment plan, are expected to go far
toward the rehabilitation of the Mexican trans
portation system. 1t is worth noting that these
sales of rolling stock to Mexico, like recent SINH
lar sales in Europe, were engineered by Mr..
Samuel Vauclain of the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, who has always preached the doctrine
that there is always business for those who go
out after it. In Mexico, as pretty much every
where else, the problem is not to find men who
want our goods, but to devise ways by which
buyers may pay for them.
Once that problem is solved, by the govern
ment and the fnanciers working together, that
foreign trade to which the nation looks forward
with confident anticipation, cannot but bring an
industrial revival which will mean real and en-
during prosperity.
