WON'T RUSH PEACE NOW
President Harding Views European
Situation With Alarm.

Washington, May 10 President
Harding is not asking for delay in the
adoption by the house of a peace reso-
luton, it was said today in high ad-
ministration quarters, but because of
the situation in Europe, growing out
of the reparations settlement, he is not
insisting that there should be any
haste in putting the measure thru.
1t was said that at the time of the
enactment of the resolution by the
senate the president was asked wheth-
er there was any reason for delay in
the adoption of the legislation there
and the senate was informed that
there was none.
To emphasize that there was no
conflict between the president and
congress, however, it was stated that
it was thought advisable not to inject
a possible complication in the repara-
tons settlement between the allies and
Germany by the passage of the reso-
luton by the house at this time.

, was running around and that he
would do as he pleased"

American Radicals Are
Not Red Any More, But
Haze Faded To Pale Pink
T. N. T. Bombs Ragged Whiskers and No Frantic Ltera
ture at l. w. w. Headquarters-Al Are Mild Man
manneredy Hunting Members to Help Reimburse
Bondsmen of Their Escaped Brothers

Chicago, May 10.-Wild-eyed Reds
of the country have gone thru the
laundry of conservatism and have
come out a faded pink.
In other words, a radical isn't what
he used to be. A visit to the annual
convention of the Industrial Workers
of the World here today demonstrated
that conclusively.
For instance, none of the forty-five
delegates carried T. n. T. bombs on
their hips. Also, there were no print
ing presses turning out seditious litera-
ture by the ton. No -whiskered
gentlemen, speaking in broken Eng
lish. were numbered among the dele
gates All the representatives talked
the kings English and talked it mildly.
Membership Main Idea.
Advocates of the overthrow of the
government We're not present. Dele
gates advocated the acquisition of ad-
ditional members and little else.
The chief problem before the radi-
calls was this: How in the world are
we going to scrape up the $4,000 to
reimburse the bondsmen of our nine
convicted brethren who failed to ans
wer the roll call at Leavenworth
PRISON."
Up until the time of going to press,
no answer was found to the question
that is causing grave concern from
Roy Brown, acting secretary treasurer,
on down.

RUN OVER BY TRAIN
But Santa Fe Engine and Four
Coaches Failed to Hurt Indian
apolis Woman Beyond Few
Bruises.

Dallas, Tex, May 10.-Miss Cath
crime Newly, indianapolis, Ind, mar
rowfy escaped death and serious in
jury when she was run over by the
engine and four coaches of Santa
Fe passenger train near the city limits.
The train caught Miss Newly as she
was crossing a trestle She fell to the
ties, the engine and four of the
coaches cleared her body. She was
badly bruised and was unconscious for
a while, but an examination showed
she was not seriously hurt.
Altho she had recovered conscious
ness at the sanatorium to which she
was taken, she was so nervous that
she was not able to make a statement.
Santa Fe officials declare she walk
ed into the train, evidently with the
intention of committing suicide.

Brown, who was interviewed as to
why the city hall was not blown to
smithereens as the opening ceremony
of the convention. outlined the fol-
lowing platform of the I. W. VS.:
1.-The aim of the I. W. w. is to organ
ize every worker of each industry
into one big union instead of numer-
Gus separate unions as now exist. This
would give us a better chance of treat
ing with employers
Without Intellectual Leadership.
The /. w. w. gathering is without
intellectual leadership" the
rank and file are present. Delegates
all frankly admit they are thru for
ever with 'intellectuals,'' most of
whom were sentenced to serve from
one to twenty years in Leavenworth
prison for violation of the espionage
act
Nine of the forty-six convicted l. w.
w. skipped their bonds and failed to
dress in at prison. Seven Of these
We're the "intellectuals''-ne
editors. These seven assumed the
leadership during the war and had the
most to say-the only limit of the
says being the supply of printers
ink and print paper.
1t was the boys who took their
teachings at heart and went cut to
preach the gospel on the highways and
byways who donned the conventional
prison stripes.

Southern Pacific Head Declares
r. r. Profits Small.
Other Businesses Are Taking
Far Bigger Margins.
MIDDLEMEN ARE ACCUSED
Transportation Cost Increase Is
Comparatively Little.
Proposes Remedies for Situation
to Senate PrObers.

Washington, May tO.-An attack on
the widespread propaganda Tor
lower freight rates opened the senate
interstate commerce committee IN
vestigation of the railroads today.
Julius Kruttschnitt, chairman OF the
board of the Southern Pacific, told
the committee that general detlat1on
and not high freight rates We're re-
spcnsible for business stagnatlon. ne
blamed this slagnation for inability
of producers to dispose of their prod
ucts and c1a.gcd that in many cases
the nliddleman was responsible for
lower rate agitation.
r.. X. Profits Are Less.
The witness proposed a series of re-
forms involving regulation of trans
portation systems competing with the
railroads. 4,
..The fact is" Kruttschnitt said.
that even since the rates have been
advanced. the cost of transporting
commodities is far less than the toll
taken by the commission merchants
and. the. retailer. Consequently, peo-
pie are nisled and conclude that high
rates have stopped the movement of a
large amount of freight and that the
railways would make more money if
they would reduce rates and thereby
revive traffic.
-s..Manv commodities would not move
even if the freight charges on them
were abolished entirely because pro-

their history. ships here and abroad

Freight Rates Not to Blame.
Kruttschnitt pointed to the case of
cotton on which he said inland freight
rates had advanced PAN cents per 100
pounds while ocean freight rates de-
clfned to 45 cents per 100 pounds in
March this year since August, 1920,
when the rate was $1.9S. Neverthe-
less, forty per cent of the Texas crop
remains unmoved, he said.
obviously, the freight rate is not
responsible" Kruttschnitt said. Got
ton shippers attribute it to an absence
of demand, both domestic and for
eign."
Taking the case of lemons, the
trouble was the Sicilian competition
and not freight rates. The fact about
rates on cantaloupes had been mis-
represented in the interest of the mid
dleman, Kruttschnitt said.
Remedies Are Proposed.
AS remedies for the railroad situa,
ton. resulting from too small reve
nues, Kruttschnitt recommended:
Adequate rules and regulation of tn
use Of highways built with public money
Make inland waterways paiy for them
selves by regulation and proper tolls.
Keep the government out of the ship OPP

 t''Everytime go down town now l am thankful to this wonderful med icine, for before I took it I was hardly able to get around the house Every joint in my body hurt me and my ankles and hands were badly swollen. My hips gave me good deal of pain, too, I suffered so I couldn't get much, rest at night as 1t was almost impossible for me to get in a comfortable position in bed.
 "Tanlac helped me right from the start. My father was doctor and I've had considerable experience with medicine but Tanlac beats them all l never hoped to get the won derful relief have received. I am free from aches and pains and the swelling has almost entirely gone rom all my joints. Every day now I do my housework and. take long walks that I couldn't have done be- fore and I feel stronger and sleep better than I have in years. My aD- petite is just splendid, in fact.

CAMPBELL WILL HAVE
 OPPORTUNITY

When the special session Of the legislature is convened in Phoenixx during the early days of the coming wear, according to semi-officiaI an nouncement, Governor Campbell Will then have opportunity to make known the ills which have come on this state since he was inaugurated as governor of this state three years ago; he will have an opportunity to tell the legislature why it is costing twice as much now to carry on the state government as it did in the years prior to his coming to the eX- ecutive chair to assume control Of the state: he will have the opportunl- ty to enlghten the legislature and the public by telling why it is, after issuing tax-anticipation bonds to the amount of two million dollars there is yet practically empty state treasury, causing the creditors and officials and employees of the various state institutions and departments to peddle the warrants of the state to money lenders at from f to 10 percent discount; he will have opportunity to report results of his present trip east and several previous ones; he will have the opportunity to tell the legislature his views on, the very important matter of putting this state on a cash basis at time when the treasury is empty, when many state warrants are out for which there is no money to pay and with two million in bonds outstanding for which future tax collections are pledged to that amount; he will have the opportunity to explain why he re fused to call an extra session last August when, according to estima ton of prominent taxpayers, one and half million dollars could have been cut from the tax levy of thi. year and why he now calls a specia session after the tax levy has beer made, leaving no opportunity to re trench or economize so far as tn, present year is concerned.
 There will be much anxiety to hea the suggestions of the governor a to how cash basis can be reache, in the face of the known capacit of his administration for spending.
 No doubt the members of the legis lature will be willing to adopt an
 feasible plan to save the, state fror bankruptcy, provided sthe governo <. will alight from his extravagant gull
 ernatorial steed and consent to r, i trenchments and economies for whic | earnest pleas were made last sprin
