Coughed Up Bullet
 Fired In Civil War
(Rv The Associated Press>

Kelso, Wash, Sept. s.-P. J. Knapp, a Civil War veteran, after 5S years, has traced the course of a bullet he fired at the siege of Vicksburg.
 Some time ago MT. Knapp read a news dispatch saying that w. V. Meadows, a Confederate veteran of Lanott, Alabama. had coughed up a bullet which was shot into his eye at Vicksburg. MT. Meadows. the ac- count said, was a member of the 37th Alamaba regiment, and MT. Knapp recalled an incident at the siege, when he and three other members of the Fifth Iowa Volunteers were called up- on to silence a Confederate sharp shooter who was firing through small hole in a sheet of boiler plate.
 After MT. Knapp fired the sharp shooters shots were discontinued, and it was surmised that he had been shot in the eye.
 When Mir. Knapp wrote to MT Meadows, the latter said that he was the man behind the boiler plate and that the bullet entered his right eye MT. Knapp received a photograph of the bullet and of MT. Meadows The two veterans have enjoyed consid- eraible correspondence over the incl dent.

PORTLAND TO HELP
 JOBLESS IN WINTER

Portland, Ore, Sept. s.-Unemploy- ment in Oregon approaches the 15,- 900 mark. according to A. W Jones. director of the Portland Municipal Employment Bureau, who bases his estimate on reports from all sections of the State. The normal unemploy- ment in Oregon is about 5000.
 The greater part of the army of iobIess men is composed of unskilled workers. However, all the building trades report unemployment which averages 40 per cent, Jones reports and in the miscellaneous trades 20 per cent are without work
 The harvesting of the hop crop in Oregon, beginning September l and lasting four weeks, will provide tenn .porary relief for a few thousand who are now without work
 The city of Portland, anticipating an unusually "hard Winter" IS al- ready making tentative plans for ere ating work for unemployed men who are citizens.

SOME FORM OF
 CAPITALISM IS
 NEEDED--LEN!kE
(By The Associated Press

Iby The ASSOClaIeQ freSS
 London, Sept. S.-In the first num- yber of the new Labor Monthly. Pre- mier Lenine explains the discovery of the Soviet government of Russia that it could not get along without capitalism in some form and why it has compromised on what it calls "State capitalism.
 ''State capitalism" he says, "is in comparably higher economically than our present economiS system-that is one point; and secondly there is noth- ing in it that is terrible for the Soviet government, for the Soviet state is a state which guarantees power to the workers and the poor.
 "One of the simplest cases or ex- ampleS of how the Soviet government guides the development of capitalism along the path of state capitalism of how it plants state capitalism is concessions. Everybody now agrees not everybody fully appreciates the significance of concessions.
 'SThe Soviet government secures the advantage in the form of the de- veIopment of productive forces and an increase in the quantity of products dreds of enterprises. mines. forests, etc. we cannot develop them all; we have not enough machinery, food or transport.
 "In planting state capitalism in the form of concessions, the Soviet duction against small production, the advanced against the backward, ma chine production against hand pro- duction. It increases the quantity of products of large industry in its hands and strengthens the state regu- lations of economic relations as a 1 counter-balance to the petty bour- geoise, anarchic relations"

MEXICO WORKERS
 SHARE PROFITS
 OF INDUSTRIES
(By The Associated Press)

Mexico City, Sept. s.-The federal government will not intervene in an effort to have the Vera Cruz legislature modify its law recently passed per mitting workmen to share in the profits of any industry within the state. Secretary of the Interior Gales has made a. statement to this effect.
 Secretary Gales says that in such matters the states are sovereign, add ing, however, that the law is not as drastic as described by it's opponents.
 Although there is no apparent hope that the law will be repealed repre- sentayives of various industries af- fected have told The Associated Press that they 'tunderstand'' no attempt will be made to carry out the measure in a strict form. They are prepared, however, to close down all their in terests in the state of Vera Cruz if the prof1t-sharing law is invoked by the workmen. It is believed the Su- preme Court will be called upon to pass on the law.
 Effects of the law have already been felt in other parts of the re- public. In the Laguna cotton region manufacturers have refused to buy any of the crop on hand in view of the possibility of the Durango IegisIa- ture passing a similar law.

A woman was discovered in Gary, Ind, the other day by a, Y. W. c. A. worker among foreign-speaking peo- pie who had never seen a lake. And Gary is on Lake Michigan.

You ought to know that it immediately destroys all odorS that are bound to come from the excretions of the scalp, and in five minutes after an application, no matter how hot the weather, your head will feel cool and comfortable.
 Everyone should have a bottle of Partisan sage handy because 1t is such a pleasant and eXhilarating hair treat ment. Ladies use it because they know it is daintily perfumed, not sticky or greasy and surely does make the hair beautiful, silky and abundant Here. what a New York woman wrrreS: I have used Parisian sage two weeks only, yet in that time find my hair has won derfully increased in beauty, thickness and luxuriance, but what surprised me most was the disappearance or all dand- ruff"

Beneath their tread the brittle shells cracked into fragments.
 Following the dance the pinkish shrimp meat was shoveled through great screens, the brittle shell frag- ments falling through, while the piles of dried flesh were packed in barrels.
