ENGLISH PROFESSOR.
PAYS FINE TRIBUTE
TO US. ARCHITECTURE

LIVERPOOL, Dec. 3.-Prof. c. II.
Reilly. of the School OF Architecture,
Liverpool university, has just paid a
tribute to American architecture which
he said was purer and more stable
than that of England. America does
not seem 10 be swept as our country
has been by fashions set by individual
contemporary architects" he said.
American architecture has been in
the last 80 years less self-sufficient and
less insular than British
The American architect deliberately
sought his inspiration in the work OF
the Italian, French and Spanish Rem
aissance, Prof. Reilly said. One had
no fear that Fifth Avenue would al
any moment be spoiled by a glazed
terra-cotta building, with grotesque
German detail, yet who could say the
same of Oxford-Street or the Strand
or any leading London thoroughfare

Clansrnen Gather
 ToHear Evidence In Murder Trial
Republican A. P. Leased Wirel

MOUNT VERNON, Ky. Aug. 22.- The first day of the John Bailey mur- der trial, growing out of the Bailey White mountain feud, was productive of nothing more thrilling than the search of every person who entered the court room for weapons. Soldiers and deputy sheriffs stopped each clansman as he entered the door. None resisted the search and no weapons exceyt a few pocket knives were found. Even the women were not exempt.
 When the case was called both the commonwealth and the defense asked for a continuance because essential witnesses were absent. The prosecu- ton asked for attachments for four and the defense for nine material witnesses. Circuit Judge Bethurum appointed Sheriff Walker to deputize two soldiers to bring the desired wit nesses into court and adjourned court until tomorrow. The sheriff also was ordered to establish a censorship of telephone wires and instructed to prevent the transmission of any mes sages which might inform the miss ing witnesses of his order.

G0MPERS SAYS WORK SITUATION ECONOMIC CRIME
IRepubIiean A. 2. Leased wirel

VI 2
 ATLANTIC CITY. Aug. 22-The present unemployment situation is an economic crime that is resulting in a loss of s27.5oo.0O0 a day in wages to the workers of the country, Presi- dent Samuel Gompers declared to- night following session of the ex- ecutive council of the American Fed eration of Labor, at which present unemployment conditions were dis cussed.
 Wage reductions will not relieve the situation, the veteran labor chief said, adding that such action will further curtail our domestic purchas- ing power, and more factories will close because the people haven't the money to buy their products.
 '.The present depression" he added will become even more acute and the reductions, if they can be forced upon us, will not only prove a boom erang to the employer but a menace to our economic financial and polit- ical structures.
 Tn all this talk about readjust- ment and reconstruction, why is il that the pressure is always brought to bear upon those whose standards of life and every day existence would De QeLiiOTdllZSQ anu ucleTlOTdteQ Dy reduction in wages, and why this drive to reduce their wages first: The rank and file cannot understand how readjustment and reconstruction
 can mean only reduction of their
 wages.
 T have been asked who, among the capitalists, has suggested a reduction in the rate of interest on a loan ol
 a reduction of profits, or even g simultaneous reduction of wages and profits.
 The cost of living has not como down. Instead. with profiteering un- 1 checked and unrestrafned, it is goins up, especially rents. Ninety pel cent of the homes in the United States were built before the war. bu 1 the exorbitant rents gouged out ol | the tenants by the profiteering anc interruptions landlords is blamed or | the high cost of labor during the l war.
 The council had before it proposa 1 to call upon congress to take steps | to relieve the present unemployment situation by legislation and by mak- l ing appropriations that would aid 1T speeding up public work. Action or 1 this will probably be taken later this week.

Spain Recruiting Morocco Soldiers
 In United States
Republican A. E. Lea1ed WFe1


 NEW YORK, Aug. 22-Reeruiting for a Spanish foreign legion for ser vice in Morocco was in progress to- day at the Spanish consulate here. About 250 men, who have been re- cuited since last Thursday were told to be ready to leave tomorrow for Spain. More than half that number are American veterans of the A. E. F. The rest are Spaniards and South Americans.
 A small poster on the wall in Span ish and English called upon both Spaniards and strangers who were mindful of the glory and power of Spain to enlist in the legion. The pay is four and half pesetas day, or less than 60 cents cf present ex- change. A bonus of 400 pesetas is offered for a four years enlistment and TOO pesetas for five years. Head quarters of the legion are at Ceuta. Morocco a Spanish penal colony. A Spanish army officer in uniform di rected the consular force in making out the necessary papers for each recruit. In another room a Spanish doctor made the necessary medical examination.
 The office was crowded with ap- plicants all day Most of the Amer jeans said frankly that they were broke and were looking more fol three meals a day than any military excitement Some of the more pros- porous looking ones said they were looking for adventure and hoped to find it in the Moroccan deserts. A few more their old army uniforms.
 Several former army officers ap- piled for commissions in the legion Their cases were referred to the Spanish embassy at Washington, one of them said.

Government Test
 May Develop Sea
 Going Airplanes
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WARWICK, R. L., Aug. 22.-Fina1 tests were made here today under United States naval supervision of a power unit of three huge liberty air plane engines geared to one 1Sfoot propeller, by which, according tc those making the test it is hoped to establish an airplane cruising radius sufficient to command the ocean.
 Lieutenant R. Christensen. United States navy, engineer of the NC-1 during the trans Atlantic flight of that craft, was in charge of the tests, which were said to have been suc- cessful.
 The military importance of the le- velopment is declared to be of signif- icance greater even than the com mercial, and it is claimed any air. plane of three or more units, repre- senting a total of 4,000 horse power, will have a cruising radius exceed ing 5000 miles, and carrying ca- pacity of F tons of explosives. It is declared to be the first time that Liberty motors have been geared down to a propeller with clutch l system. Each unit has three Lib erty motors, two riding tandem and on trailing. The plan consists of the adaptation of the clutch which made | the automobile practicable, coupled with gears which enable the propeller and engines to operate at maximum efficiency.
 The engines and giant propeller were mounted on test stand 25 feet high and operation with one, two or three units was demonstrated. The propellor was turned at soc revolu- tions a minute and the engines at | 1,S00, which it was said has long been sought as one of the missing elements necessary to practical com- mercial flying.
 The power unit will be delivered | to the United States navy depart ment within few days, it was an- nounced.

Ls Your Home A Fire Trap?

Did you ever ask yourself that question?
 Thousands of American homes are fire traps.
 A fire breaks out in America every minute of the day and night, and most of them are due to carelessness.
 Matches. lamps, rubbish. fire plac- es, gasoline, dry leaves. hay, waste paper, cleaning mixtures-these are a few of the things that menace your life and property if they are defec- tive or carelessly used.
 The National Board of Fire Un- derwriters has compiled a fire pre- vention manual for school children which studied the chief causes of fire and their control. It is illus trated, and written in simple lan- guage. Every household should con- tain one. You can get yours by writ ing our Washington Information Bureau.

HOUSE APPROVES ADMINISTRATION
 RAIL FUND BILL
Republican A. p. Leased wIre1

Republican A. P. Leased Wire1
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The ad- ministratbon railroad funding bill was passed tonight by the house. The measure now goes to the senate.
 The vote was 214 to 123. It is not the present intention of the senate to take up the bill before the recess
 An unsuccessful effort was made to eliminate a section which provides that no payments shall be made by the government to any carriers lon account of the so-called inefficiency of labor" during federal control. An amendment to strike out this provi- sion, offered by Representative Web ster, Washington, a Republican mem- Der of the commerce committee, which had been favorably reported, was rejected 145 to IT.
 Another provision of the section which MT. Webster failed to have stricken out stipulates that no funds shall be used in making settlements with carriers which did not forever ba-- such carriers from settling up any further claim. right or demands of any kind or character, against the United States. growing out of or connected with the possession, use or operation of such carriers prop erty by the United States during the period of federal control.'
 Proponents of the measure suc- ceeded in voting down all motions to amend the bill in important par ticulars and as passed the measure, except for a few minor changes, is in he form in which it was reported to the house.
 During four hours of general de- bate three members of the commerce committee, besides MT. Webster Representative Rayburn, Texas; Johnson. Mississippi, and Huddleston. Alabama, all Democrats-expres opposition to the bill Mir. Rayburn, however, urged retention of the sec- ton which Mir. Webster urged elim- mated
 Contending the government was bound by previous legislation to rec ognize claims growing out of labor inefficiency," MT. Webster said pas sage of the bill without elimination of the clause to which he objected would be "a monstrous repudiation of solemn contract"
 Attacking the bill, MT. Rayburr declared the railroads were the pam pered pet of the government" As long as congress continues tc make advances to them, they will ask for more money" he said, add ing, why don't they do something for themselves
 Representative Mondell, Republi- can leader, asserted enacement of the bill would do more thany anything else ito hasten the day when trans | portation rates can be reduced"
 The benefit that will accrue to the general public. he said, will be in finitely greater than that of the ben | eft to the railroads

METHODS 0F FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD ARE |NEXCUsABLE,
Republican A. P. Leased wIrel

IHepubIican A. P. Leased WIreJ
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Federal reserve board policies in connection with price and currency deflation are cynical, cruel and inexcusa- ble," and constitute financial tyr amy and commercial criminality," J. S. Wannamaker, president of the American Cotton association, charged today before a joint congressional agricultural committee. The boards methods. he added, are 'heaping up gold in the United States at the ex- pense of all civilization
 Speaking. he said, for agricultural producers, the witness asserted the federal board and blanks were re- sponsible for the general price de- cline. The boards pressure still was being exerted upon. "bankers. who are afraid of their shadow, who may find all their loans called by the reserve banks any minute and dare not dis obey it's orders" according to MT. Wannamaker, who asked the com mission to recommend legislation for general revision of the reserve board personnel. He proposed that the per sonnel be composed of 12 members, nominated from the various districts as representatives of industry instead of banking. who should be appointed by the president and confirmed by the senate Further, he suggested that the commission recommend the instant reduction in federal reserve rediscount rates to a basis fo 39 per cent on Liberty loan collateral. The federal reserve banking sys- tenn, created to serve the people, by it's administration, has made the peo- pie servants of the system" he as- serted. Its policy will require the American people to pay with deflated dollars a national debt borrowed in inflated dollars"
 Price declines that have been eff fected lately, he declared, will not
 help consumers because they have | left nothing for agricultural produc- CTS to do but combine and reduce production so low in the future thai | prices will give us some margin o1 profit and let us pay our debts"

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 22-A crime wave at present sweeping England, Ireland, and France is proof that crime in the United States today can not be attributed to pro- hibition, Dr. Robert O. Mathews of Washington, representing the na- tional prohibition commissioner, de- clared in an address tonight at the national w. c. T. U. convention.
 He likened the personal liberty ar- gument against prohibition to a soap bubble iridescent and apparently real. but easily punctured. pr. Mathews said the statement that prohibition was the product of war time hysteria was amusing"

 PEACE OFFER REPLY
A. P. Leased wIreI


 DUBLIN, Aug. 22.-The Dali Fire ann held secret sessions today to con- slider the question of what shall be it's reply to the British governments peace offer. It adjourned tonight without having arrived at any deci- sion. but will meet again tomorrow in private, simultaneously with the gatherings of the Sim Fein execu- similar to the national political party committees in the United States.
 The following official communica- tion was issued tonight:
 "The Dail Eireann met this morn ing at II o'clock, adjourned at 2 o'clock, reassembled at o'clock, and rose at 6:20 o'clock. It was occupied all day with Mir. Lloyd Georges pro- posals. It will meet again tomor- row."
 There is little Likelihood of there being any public session of the Dali Eireann until Friday. by which time its reply may have been sent to Mir. Lloyd George.
 Mir. Harry J. Roland, representa- tive of Eamonn de Valera in the United States, and Miss Mary Mac Swiney, sister of the late lord mayor of Cork, who died on a hunger strike in Brixton prison, London. attended today's session, prepared to offer their opinions on the situation based on what was considered by them the latest feeling in the United States. MT. Roland said tonight that the situation was too delicate to talk about.
 There were no long speeches to- day.
 Any deputy speaking for more l than five or ten minutes would make | himself unpopular. except. of course Mir. de Valera or other members of
 the cabinet when making an explan- atory statement" one of the mem-
 bers said tonight. He added that thus far the deputies merely had | shown considerable curiosity con- corning the terms of the govern ments offer and that the members of the cabinet had been called upon | for explanations from all parts oi | the Round Room of the Mansion House, where the sessions of parlia- ment are being held.
 All the deputies today received | from somebody in Chicago. whose name was not signed, a long cable | gram from which they said it was 1 impossible to discover whether the | person wanted the Dail to accept ol | refuse the terms of the government | The comment on the telegram by one
 of the leading members was:
 somebody in Chicago has a lot oi | money to waste"

TRepubIican A. P. Leased WIre7

WASHINGTON, Aug, 22-The sem ate tonight passed a resolution ap- propriating $100,000 for an investi- gation by customs agents prepara- tory to the operation of the American valuation plan in the permanent tar if.
 Chairman Penrose of the senate finance committee introduced the bill explaining that it was intended to cover salaries and expenses of fifty additional experts whose employment has been urged by the treasury.
 In connection with the American valuation investigations, MT. Penrose said his committee would not at- tempt to rewrite the rates in the house tariff bill until all data on American wholesale selling prices was available. It was very evident that many of the rates were not properly based, he declared, adding that the committee desired to have solid foundation upon which to work be- fore it fixed Important duties.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-In the face of all sorts of claims by pro- hibition leaders that congress should not quit work until the anti beer legislation has been enacted, indica tions tonight were tkat the senate and house would recess Wednesday without final action on the measure.
 The house plans to adopt the con- ference report, with its compromise home and property search amend ment. tomorrow, but tkere was much uncertainty as to wi at the senate might do if Senator Sterling. chief of the conferees, should decide to call it up. The general view of leaders was that the house would ct, leaving the report before the senate for consid- eration in the fall.
