HUNT TREASURE SHIP.
Another Search Started for
Sunken Spanish GaIIeon.
Florida Adventures Dig Oceans Bot
tom for Pirate Ship and Stolen
DoubIoons.

| Miami, Fla.-Another search for
treasure-trove-a sunken Spanish gal
leon laden with stolen doubloons-has
begun on the Atlantic coast Of Flor
ida, between Deerfield and Boca
Ratone.
Romance has lured this time a
group of adventurous men Of Deer
field and thereabouts to dig In the
oceans bottom for the buccaneers pi-
rate ship. which tradition says had
hauled too close to the treacherous
shores when pursued. syndicate
formed for the search has begun OPP
erations where the galleon is supposed
to have sunk in the sands.
This Is only one Of the many such
adventures off the south Florida coast
which in the old days, before the adj
vent of lighthouses, was the scene of
many wrecks. Treasure seekers have
brought in few ancient hulls which
had been deeply buried in sand, some
dating back five or six centuries. But
SO far no ship thus recovered has
yielded anything except ancient wood.
One prospector Is said to have spent
two fortunes near Stuart before quit
ting the romantic game.
Fulford, II miles north of Miami,
has been the scene Of many searches.
Tradition has it that pirate ship es-
capped pursuers by sailing up creek
near Fulford where the crew cele-
brated by getting drunk
Seminole Indians boarded the vessel
and massacred the crew, except one,
the story runs, and the escaped pirate
succeeded in rescuing the ships treas
ure chest filled with gold which he
buried near by, making a diagram Of
the spot. Unable to return, the pirate
Is said to have given the diagram to
q friend.
This has been used by several
searching parties, equipped with every
kind of gold finder. but they failed
to locate the treasure.
A native, living near by, says the
spot is haunted and that even now
the ghosts of the pirates howl and
groan when one nears 1t.
He says no one is ever going to get
the treasure as the ghosts "carry on
terrible when you get close
to it, and there is no telling what they |
would do If they got their hands on |
It. Anything might happen in that I
terrible place"

A New Campaign Wrinkle.
This is from Media, Pa;

"A precedent in politics in this sec
ton was set by the women Of Della
ware county here last night. They
virtually compelled all candidates for
office to appear in public to outline
their policies in the event of election.
The meeting was conducted on the
lawn of the courthouse. The candi-
dates. regardless of party, were seated
together on platform, while more
than one thousand persons, mostly
ments. Each candidate was given
an opportunity to voice his or her
views"
New forms Of campaigning natural
ly follow the entrance of women into
politics. They are taking their citizen
ship seriously. and devoting time to
a study Of how to contribute to better
government. In seeking the vote they
promised that better government if OBJ.
tainable should result from their en-.
reimbursement.
Candidates for office, legislative or
executive. should be questioned. pub
licly and closely, as to their views on
public issues with which if elected they
will have to deal, and in this way COM
mitted. The interrogations should be
fair, and intended, not to put aspirants
in a hole, but on honor respecting
policies in which the public is inter-
ested.
Next, men and women elected to
Office should be reminded of the terms
of their election, and required to live
up to their engagements. No lodging.
No halfway or half-hearted fulfill
ments.
Any measures for the accomplish
ment of these two things should be
encouraged. We get. we are often
told, the kind of government we de-
serve. II we are at pains to secure
competent persons for office. and then
at equal pains to see that they dis.
charge their official duties faithfully,
good government is made reasonably
certain.

Manuel Quezon's Mission.

In a cable to The Star from Yoko-

Ouezon, president Of the Philippine
senate, explained his mission to the
United States. He will arrive this
month.
Il go to Washington as the official
representative of the senate for the
purpose of comforting with President
Harding in anticipation of. the Wood
Forbes report. Some of the most
radica! Americans in the islands are
demanding return to the days Of the
empire disregarding all the progress
the Filipinos have made in the last
twenty years under American tute-
lage. ! am confident that the forth
coming Wood Forbes report will be I'M
partial. and l believe that Mr.. Hard
ing will be willing to assure the
Filipinos that Washington does not
contemplate a step backw ard
The WoodForbes report when re-
ceived will speak for itself, and nat
urally the President will be much in
fiuenced by it. That it will be i'm
partial is assumable from the char
acter of its authors-and the instruc-
tionS they set out with on their mis-
sion.
Meanwhile. why should the Presi-
dent give any assurances on the sub
ject of American rule in the islands?
While that rule continues 1.-The prog
ress the F'ilipinos have made in the

of immediate independence for the

ton will not be entered upon until

bles in this town late in the year. The

respecting the future in the east, will

list party and greatly reduced the
number of socialist deputies. Their
policy has been to preserve the state
from socialism, and they have un-
doubtedly accomplished that end.
Now the government is moving to
put an end to the strife. Premier
Bonomi. on taking Office two months
ago. announced his determination to
end the class warfare at any cost. He
said that if necessary all Italians
would be disarmed. Since then nego-
tiations have been conducted between
the parties by President Denicola Of
the chamber of deputies and a
veritable treaty of peace has been
drawn up and is to be submitted for
signature by the respective leaders.
Thus the peculiar spectacle Is pre-
scented of national government MAX
ing peace by formal treaty between
two factions within its boundaries.
And this is the more striking in view
of the fact that one Of these two fac
tions has been waging warfare for the
maintenance of the government,
which has not recognized its activities
or helped it in any way. 1t is ini-
portant to note in this connection that
the title fascist" assumed by the eX-
treme nationaiists, is derived from the
word "fasces," meaning Gr:ldle OF
rods bound together to represen. the
people of the state and borne by lictors
in the old Roman days as a symbol
of supreme power.

The Russian Relief Problem.

Acceptance by the soviet govern
ment at Moscow of the terms pro-
Sosed by Secretary Hoover as condi-
ttons TO the institution of relief work
In Russia brings forward the ques
tion of ways and means of effecting
the rssous Of the Russians from the
famine and disease now decinating
them. At Riga and Reval are some
stores of relief supplies, foods and
medicines. But these points are at
least thousand miles by air line from
the center of the famine area in the
Solga valley. Probably the shortest
railroad transport to the scene of
greatest suffering from Riga is close
upon 1000 miles. The Russian rail-
ways are in a wretched state of dis
repair. There is comparatively SooG
train service between Riga and Mos
are bad. In order to move these sup
plies from Riga and Reval quickly the
Russian railways must be put under
the control of the relief organiZa ton.
1t is possible to send fresh supplies
by way of the Black sea. But their
assembIage here and sea transport
through the Bosphorus to a convenient
Black sea port would require not less
than two months.
Perhaps the worst factor in the Rus
sian situation is the prevalence of
cholera, which, according to the COM
missar of public health of the soviet
government, writing in the Moscow
Izvestia, is the worst visitation from
that disease in twenty years.
He says that the plague is
sweeping like tidal wave through
the filth-infected cities and towns.
Sewage systems and water supplies
are in terrible disrepair. The dirt in
the towns is such that even in dry
weather those fortunate enough to
possess overshoes must wear them.
The disease is carried broadcast by
massed migration. Tire starving pop
ulation of the Folga has been moving
SOU Inward as in an avalanche. SOW
ing infection and death on the way
DIR. Semashko says. that one of the
chief difficulties in the fight against
cholera has been the uncontrolled
horde of travellers riding everywhere,
clinging to the trains like swarming
bees, to the roofs. to the platforms, to
the windows. and underneath on the
running gear. This condition will
greatly hamper the relief work If it
continues unchecked. Military guards
will be needed to control the crowds
and protect the supplies. They will
be required also to check the panic
migration Of the people that is carry
ing disease widespread.
Perhaps no such task has ever been
undertaken by an American relief
agency. The work in Belgium was
difficult, but there was at least organ
ization there and despite the terrors
of warfare it was possible to count
upon order within the lines In Rus
sia there is no assurance whatever of
order and no guarantee that the soviet
government can protect the relief
workers from overwhelming crowding
or control the disease-carriers. II the
supplies are provided the job of get
ting them to the sufferers and dis
tributing them effectively will tax the
skill of the ablest of administrators.
