AUTOMATIC MILL TURNS OUT STEEL SHEETS AND
 SCORNS MANUAL LABOR

London. April "A mill for rolling plates which has just been installed in British steel works. is designed to roll plates from one- eighth of an inch up to one and a half inches In thickness to length of 60 feet and breadth of eight and half feet.
 The maximum weight of the finished plate is five tons. An electric s1otor capable of developing 4,500 horse power drives the mill. which is fitted with 45-ton fly wheel, so that total driving power of 11,500 horse power is available for heavy work. All the movements of this mill, from the re-, ceipt of slab to the discharge of a relied plate, are controlled electrically by two operators in an elevated pull pit immediately over one side of the mill. Manual effort is entirely absent.

 It will be known as the pan-chromatic illuminated fountain. The idea was originated by w. D'A. Ryan, pioneer or Illuminating engineers and director of the general electrfs laboratory at Schenec- tady, N. Y. Colored floodlights have been Ised before in Illuminating fountains, put never before has the scheme of using 100000 candlepower screens been at tempted. The chief advantage is that the searchlights will cast beam of colored light to the very top of the stream. distance of 75 feet, while variegated co1ors illuminate the falling waters.
 The large basin is 50 feet across and the secondary or elevated inner basin IS l41h feet in diameter. In the outer water of the large basin are eight small jets, each illuminated by a colored floodlight from beneath. In the small basin spurt-

Underneath the inner basin, which has the plate glass ceiling is q circular chamber 14xS feet This houses the four big searchlights and ap- paratus for operating the changeabie color screens. Entrance to this is from a small passageway leading to man hole on the outside of the larger basin. The entire system is automatic and needs no attendant, except in some emergency.
 It is expected the fountain viii be com pleted this summer and plans call for it's illumination every night. The foun- tain itself is not elaborate and there fore within the financial means of any small city. Because of this, it's spectacu- lar effects and vivid impression it is sure to have on visitors to the city, it is be- lieved the idea is one that will be widely duplicated once the fountain in Dallas is given practical test.

One Tokio Legislator Accuses Nippons of Opium Monopoly
 in Chinese Province
By Associated Press


 Tokio, March 26-Opposition charges of government irregularities in the opium traffic in the Kwantung leased territory were the basis of remarks by Repre- sentative NJ. Koba of the nationalist group in the Diet.
 The speaker alleged that a private or ganization called the Kosai Zendo, which has the opium monopoly in Kwantung, though nominally Chinese, is really a Japanese concern. and all the irregulari- ties in the opium traffic in Manchuria are traceable to it.
 He read extracts from contracts said to exist between the Chinese under whose name this so-called charity or ganization'' Is conducted and the Japanese who, he said. are behind the scenes. He also presented extracts from the books ct the firm, according to which the Jap anese interests derived a profit of 286, o1o yen between August 3. 1913. and March 21 1920, which is at the rate of 35,-S4 yen a month
 M. Koba alleged that close relations exist between these Japanese and cer- tain high officials in the Kwantung gov ernment general, and it is on account of this that the Japanese have been able to make such large profits out of the opium trade. The speaker .declared that the irregular transactions in opium have assumed such proportions that the drug has to be smuGgled out of Kwantung into other parts of China where it's use is prohibited.
 Governor General Yamagata of Kwan- tung replied that the government has in no way contravened international morality and that such smuggling as has occurred has been done by evading the governments control. He unqualifiedly denied any offiical connection with irreg- ular transactions and said he was in- clined to doubt the authenticity of the extracts of documents, books. etc.. that had been read

MANY STATES BAR WOMEN AS JURORS.
 REMEDIES ON WAY
Only Minor Rights of Citizen. ship Are Denied American Women and These Are
 Reing Rapidly Adjusted
By Associated Press

Chicago. April z.-Granting of woman suffrage has not yet given women full rights with men in a large part of the United States, as is indi cated by survey of the middle west and southwest made by the Associated Press. In only quarter of this ter ritory, it appears, do women stand un- mistakably on an even footing with men
 The determinations where they exist are, however, for the most part small The chief disability lies in the righc to sit on juries. The stumbling block in this case is generally a constitu- tional provision that jurors must be males Removal of the disqualified tion has been urged in a number Of legislatures this winter. Other excep- tons women are under in various states include these:
 THE EXCEPTIONS
 In Iowa, they cannot sit in the
 legislature
 In Wisconsin. they cannot serve
 as a legislative employee.
 In North Dakota, they do not
 pay poll tax.

 In Nebraska, although an Omaha woman recently sat on a jury, existing law makes this irregular In Kentucky portion at least of the circuit judges believe that the use of the mascu- line in the statute does not bar women from jury duty as women have served on a circuit court jury in Jessa- mine county and on both petit and grand juries in Laurel county. There has been nc opinion by the Kentucky attorney general eor the courts.
 UP TO COURTS
 In Minnesota the attorney general has held that women cannot serve on juries, but several district court judges have held otherwise and admitted them to Gt rles. Tn Illinois, until the supreme court rules definitely, judges are per mitted to determine for themselves whether women shall serve as jurors. The North Dakota legislature recently passed a law permitting women to serve on juries, but not requiring such service. In Indiana the legislature has just re- moved discrimination by enacting that the father and mother jointly, if living, shall be the natural guardians of their children instead of the father alone. Iowa women contemplate effort to have their inability to sit in the legislature removed through an approaching con stitutional convention. Otherwise they enjoy full rights with men.
