WOULD BAN PAGAN
FILIPINO ''SH|MMY"
Senator Offers Bill to Compel
Natives to Wear More
Clothing.

MANILA, Feb. 10.--The mountain
province natives "shimmy" must go
from the Philippines If bill filed
with the secretary of the Senate by
Senator Lope e. Santos becomes a
law. According to the wording of
Mr.. Santos presentation the officials
of non-Christian tribes, the in
habitants of settlements and ranch
erias and the children going to school
will be prohibited from appearing in
public wearing only the now custom
ary garment.
Anyone who should violate this pro-
posed law would be imprisoned for
from thirty days to five years. If the
offender were a school student, dis
ciplinary action would be taken by
the superintendent. The bill would
go into effect two years after it was
passed. During the meantime each
province must have bought and dis
tributed clothing at cost to the noun
tain province people who now find a
one-piece draping sufficient.
Senator Santos said the appearance
n. public of half-naked pagans is a
shameful exhibition and is capt. allied
by opponents of Philippine independ-
ence as demonstrating Filipino inca
pacity for self-government He said
that to force them in this way to
wear clothes would be more effective
than to educate them in schools to
do it.
He said that the experience with
pagans taught him that when school
children go back to their tribes they
forget what they learn about society.
Senator Santos is the author of an
other bill now pending which proposes
to allot Filipino names to the pagaps.

j. s. DRUG TRADE
ENJOYS BIG BOOM
Dry Law Held Responsible In
Part for Expansion Of
Business.

Is prohibition responsible for big
growth in the drug business In the
United States?
Drugs. out OF long list of business
groups, stand alone as the only one
showing a jump in volume of sales
and future contracts.
Drug business is rapidly expanding,
while other lines have been under de-
preston. consequent to price read
adjustments, the rederal Reserve
Board said today, in a survey of the
business field.
Whiskey sales to retail druggists,
by wholesalers legally permitted to
withdraw liquor in huge amounts
from bond and resell to the trade, ac-
count for part of the increase in drug
business, officials said. In fact they
figured it is responsible for very
substantial amount of this increase.
The board had no figures to show
what proportion of the 2S000, 900 gal
Ions withdrawn last year went into
drug channels" but admittedly 1t
was large. No figures were separately
compiled to indicate the growth in the
narcotic trade, but Treasury reports
from various collectors districts indi-
Gated that heavier revenues are COM
ing in from that source, accounting in
part possibly for Some of the
heavier drug dealers.

WOMAN'S BEST DEFENSE
IS SCREAM, SAY POLICE
Berkeley Chief Gives Advice for
Protection of Homes.

BERKELEY, Feb. 10.-"Woman's s
best defense is her scream. A good,
lusty scream answers the purpose
better than firarms," August Vollmcr,
chief of police of Berkeley, told a
womap's vigiantcs committee today.
Among other things he said:
"Do not let n solicitor, peddler or
beggar into your home. II he asks
for money he is not safe; he is dan
gerous. Call a policeman. Turn So
licitors out. They are after the wom-
en- to get their names on the dotted
line for something that they do not
need.
"when you pull down the shades
and turn out the lights on leaving
home you put up sure sign for the
burglar that you are out. Leave at
least one light burning and the
shades up. Tell your neighbors."
The women discussed tying tin
pans on the doors and windows, hys-
terra and the awful thoughts of n
woman expecting a burglar for two
or three years and he never came"
but were undecided az to what action
they would take other than that they
all agreed to report all suspicious
characters in their neighborhood to
the police.

United States.

MONTREAL. Feb. 10.-America 8
forest problem has advanced to the
point where great coalition of In
terested Industries has at last united
in support of a definite forestry pro-
gram" was the announcement made
by X. S. Kellogg, of New York, sec
retary of the News Print Service
Bureau, when discussing pending
American forestry legislation before
the Canadian Forestry Association.
Mr.. Kellogg, who is chairman of
the National Forest program commit
tee. which is pushing forestry legis-
lation. said:
Eight great organizations of tim
berland owners. lumber. pulp and pa
per manufacturers, lumber dealers,
forestry associations, the wood-using
Industries, and the American News
paper Publishers Association, have
united through their representatives
in a forest program committee and
the bill upon which all of the organ
izations represented are agreed has
been introduced in Congress as the
Smell forest bill.
The fundamental features of the
forestry problem are alike on both
sides of the international boundary.
and the pulp and paper industry of
North America is an international
industry with interlocking basis and
largely common markets.
"In neither country has the prob
lem yet been tackled in the thorough
going fashion 1t must be, in order that
our great Industries and the very life
of the people may be sustained in the
future upon the basis upon which
they have been organized and con-
structed."
Mr.. Kellogg paid particular COM
pliment to the start made in refor-
in New York. Pennsylvania,
and Wisconsin. and to
he efficiency of the private fire fight

frogs Are poultry Ergo. live frogs

Such is the reasoning Of the United

Lem Louie Wing. cook on the Per-

frogs all the way from China as pets
for his little niece up In Chinatown
Being honest. Lem Louie visited the
custom House and declared his inten-
tion OF bringing into the United
States two frogs.
Now, according TO customs rules,
everything entering the port must
come under its proper classification.
The tones OF the office were
searched and no classification Of frogs
was found.
IL looked like Lem Louie's little
niece would have TO get along with
out her pets.
Then Deputy Surveyor Cook had a
bright idea. Reference 10 the APP
praisal lists under the heading OF
poultry showed that frozen frogs
may enter as poultry"
such being the case, Collector Irby
was called upon 10 rule whether live
frogs might not enter as birds"
The reasoning Is clear" he ruled.

classify them as poultry when dead.

SCOUTS OF INDIA
SEEK RECOGNITION
Appeal to King George to Be
Allowed to Affiliate With
White Boys.
ny WILLIAM L. mALLAbAh.
International News Service.

LONDON. Feb. 1O.-Just because the
white Boy Scouts of India are so
snobbish as to refuse to associate
with their brown brothers is sufficient
cause for the King 10 take hand In
the matter and for Sir Robert Baden
Powell 10 take a special trip over
there.
The fact that the white scouts have
refused TO allow the Indian boys to
affiliate with them has for some time
been great bone OF contention.
There are over two million Indian
Boy Scouts. and they have for some
time felt that the scout spirit was not
shown by the white boys
After the big ''jamboree" here the
Indian boys again made a claim 10 De
allowed TO affiliate with the whites
and were refused. This caused 80
much unrest that the Indian govern
ment appealed directly to the King
pointing out that these boys were Just
OF an age that they would come TO
manhood at about the time when the
Prince of Wales would, in the course
OF nature, attain the throne and that
10 have this number of disafrected
Indians at that time would hardly be
OF much value to the empire.
The King sent for Sir Robert, and
after due consideration of the matter
II was decided that the chief scout
for such is Sir Roberts title-would
go to India and try to adjust the mat
ter.
Sir Robert Is now on his way, and
II is hoped that he will be able TO NIX
things up so that the indian boys
will no longer feel that they are out
OF the game--as far as their EnSllsh
brothers are concerned.
The Prince of Wales, as chief scout
for Wales, has taken big interest
in the matter, and he personally urged
Sir Robert to undertake the mission.
