MRS. LEWIS DEFENDS
'HEADLOCK' H0LO

San nose, Cal, Feb. 5.-Defense Of
the deadlock wrestling hold, which has
been barred by Jack Curley, New York
wrestling promoter, was voiced here
recently by DR.. Ada Scott Morton
Frederick, wife of Ed (Strangler) Lew
is, who won the worlds wrestling
championship mainly by use Of the
prohibited hold.
Scientifically, DR.. Frederick analysed
the deadlock as a twin brother to nit
rous oxide anesthesia, something which
puts 'em to sleep but doesn't per-
manently hurt them."
The deadlock is 20 more dangerous
than the scissors or the toe hold
DIR. Frederick said. 1T simply puts
the opponent to sleep for little
while. The brain is protected by Its
bony covering from serious or per-
manent injury from the hold. The
scissors on the other hand. is likely
to do permanent injury to the wrest-
Ter internally"
Lewis invented the deadlock, his
wife said. After several recent bouts
in the east his opponents have re-
mained unconscious for several min
utes.

TELEPHONE EXCHANGES
CRUDE IN EARLY DAYS

"A visitor to a modern telephone op.
Grating room cannot fail to be i'm.
pressed with the speed and efficiency
with which the switchboard operators
handle the subscribers calls. The;,
swift and accurate movements in re-
spouse to the flashing lights on the
switchboard; the absence of any con-
fusion even in rush hours when traffic
is at it's height, are Indicative of the
advance in methods and apparatus
that have been going on for nearly
half a century of telephone history.
Yet it was not always thus. The
first telephone exchanges were pretty
crude affairs in the light of modern
telephone development.
At one of the early periods of
switchboard development there was
great confusion in the operating rooms
because the operators had to shout to
each other the connections wanted bv
the calling subscribers. There were
many schemes devised to do away
with the shouting. In one of these,
there were little tubes provided, each
tuoe ending before a particular oper-
ator, and instead of calling out, the
operator receiving the call would write
the desired number in lead pencil on
the marble, put it into the tube and
allow it to roll down to the operator
desired. All these methods were
changed when the multiple switch
board was introduced, in which all of
the lines are carried through the en-
TIRE switchboard appearing on each
section SO that each operator has a
certain number of subscribers lines
front of her which she answers and
also has within reach all the other
lines connected with the switchboard.

HELPING

When will the western copper mines
reopen? They will open when bust
ness again justifies.
If we sit and suck our thumbs, it
will take business longer to revive.
One way that the people can help
in the re-opening of our copper mines
and the employment of tens of thous-
ands of workmen, is by taking an in
terest in products manufactured from
copper.
We live in the heart of a copper
producing country and yet we manu-
facture but minus quantity of copper
articles, while the field for the use of
copper is almost limited.
AS an illustration, what material
will make a better road sign than a
sheet of copper?
1t would last forever and would not
have to be replaced every few years
as do the present painted metal signs.
Why not use u own ingenuity and
evlve our tagging industries instead
OF waiting for Europe or some bank
rupt foreign country to come our res
cue with orders?
The road sign is merely one of a
thousand uses that can be cited for
copper.

What Mother Earns,

That excellent country newspaper,
the West Point (Neb.) Republican car
ried the following story in it's cur
rent issue and declares that every
newspaper in the land should print it.
We agree, and here it is:
"She eve earned any money-she
lives on an Ohio farm, but she lives
on almost every other farm. She is
somebody's mother, maybe your own.
She has earned nothing. No, but dur
ing her thirty working years she has
served 432,983 meals; she has made
1928 garments, $4,000 loaves of bread,
$3.50 cakes, 1882 pies, 1900 gallons
of lard; she has grown 1882 bushels
OF vegetables, and has raised 1850
chickens; churned 5,43O pounds of
butter; put up 1926 jars of preserves;
scrubbed 177,725 articles of laundry:
and she has put in $3.50 hours of
sweeping and washing and scrubbing.
At accepted prices for this work it is
worth $115,48O.50. She can't retire
on her saving-she has to keep on.
Not earning! No. How do you define
the ordinary woman's contributions to
her family wealth ?-Colliers Weekly.

bill. So, on May 9th, the Emergency
tariff bill was passed which granted
protection to farm products.
July 22nd the general tariff bill
was referred to the Finance Commit
tee OF the Senate, which determined
after considerable pressure had been
brought to bear, to hold supplement
tary hearings, which commenced July
18th, and which were continued daily
until Congress recessed late in Au-
gust because of the absolute exhaus-
non OF many of the members.
During this recess there was an ir-
resistlble movement all over the coun-
try to induce Congress to give prior
lty IN legislation to the tax bill, and
since the agricultural interests had
been taken care Of by way of the
emergency tariff, and imports were
falling off, Congress was the more
ready to bow to this opinion. so, on
September 21st, the tax bill moved
up to displace the tariff bill, and the
former was passed November 7th. The
tariff bill carried something of an in
novation in what is known as the
american valuation" clause, which
bases ad valorem duties on the do
nestle selling price, and wishing to
to secure all the information possible
on that subject, the Senate appointed
a committee to undertake an exhaus-
tive investigation of the matter. That
investigation has been going on for
some time and as it proceeds it
strengthens the belief of the majority
in the feasibility of the clause. There
is no doubt that it will be retained in
the final draft of the bill.
A few days ago the tar
III bill was again extended, this time
until the general tariff bill becomes a
law; and supplemental hearings are
being held by the Senate to Clarity
disputed points respecting certain ag-
rlcultural products. It is confidently
predicted that the Fordney -Penrose
tariff bill will become a law not later
than the fore part Of March, 1922.

CITY TAX COLLECTING POWERS
IDENTICAL WITH COUNTY

The following opinions have been
announced from the office of Attorney
General Wellington D. Rankin:
Upon the request of w. R. Dodds,
city clerk Of Scobey as to whether a
city of third class. which has pro-
vided by ordinance for the collection
OF its own taxes, has the same author
lty relative to the collection of such
taxes as the county, it is held that city
treasurers have the same powers as
county t%reasurers so far as tax COL
lections r concerned.
The attorney general quotes a rul-
ing of former Attorney Generay Ga
len: Section 1857 revised codes pro-
vldes that in cas- an ordinance of any
city provide for the collection of it's
taxes by its treasurer, such treasurer
shall have the same power to collect
