NEW WAYS OF REMOVING
STAINS FROM LEATHER

Leather goods that have been made
unsightly by grease spots and which
cannot be removed by ordinary means,
can often be restored by methods de-
yeloped by the Bureau Of Chemistry
Of the United States Department Of
Agriculture. When shoes, travelling
bags and similar articles come in con-
tact with butter, lard, vaseline, salad
oil. lubricating oil or anything Of the
kind, ugly stains are produced, especi-
ally if the leather is Of light color and
attempts to remove them with gasoline
or ordinary grease solvents results in
spreading them. The method recon-
mended by the department consists in
coating the spots with a thick solution
Of rubber in solvent that evapoIates
readily and peeling on the coating
when it is almost dry. In some cases
it may be necessary to repeat the op-
Grafton several times. A solution OF
vulcanized rubber para or Ceylon)
in bishulphide in the proportion Of !
part to 10 parts by weight as well as
some Of the prepared rubber cements
has been found satisfactory. Since
the fumes Of the bishulphide are very
inflamable, it is necessary to work at
q distance from any fame or heat. Tc
keep the rubber from adhering toe
tightly to the article, the spot may be
slightly wet before applying the rub
ber solution.
Milk produces spots on leather or
account OF. the fat 1t contains. In ad'
dition It often leaves . white residue
and sometimes dark stain. Thl
white residue may be removed will

| for taking out the brown stain. Tn

immigration Unsatisfactory

immigration officials are very mucn
dissatisfied with the general class OIL
immigrants now coming to this coun-
trv for admission. They also lear
that the present restrictive lmmlgra-
ton laws will soon result IN snort
age of labor in the United States
This is accentuated by the fact that
for every three immigrants admitted
at least one leaves the country Dur
ing the fiscal year 1922, which ended
June 30, total of 309, $50 aliens were
admitted while 1872 left the shores
of the United States During July
and August of this year 89,9lo allens
entered the United States, while 20
lS6 left. At least half Of those admit,
ted were females while only one-thlro
the number which took their depart
ure were of that sex.
One of the chief detectives Of the
restrictive immigration law was to
halt the immigration of people OF
Southern and Eastern Europe and to
encourage those from Northern and
Western Europe 1t is felt by officials
that the latter class will make better
citizens because they are more ike
Americans in characteristics than
those with Latin blood in their velns'

No Social Activities

The program of social activities at
the White House for the coming win
ter season will be entirely abandoned.
Announcement to this effect has been
made but has caused little or no sur
prise as some such action had been
anticipated. 1t is said the President
and Mrs. Harding regret exceedingly
having to make such a decision, but
that General c. L. Sawyer, the White
House physician, has warned them
that even with the most fortunate con-
valescence, Mrs. Harding will be un-
equal to the fatigue incident to enter
tanning.
Four state receptions and as many
state dinners make up what may be
described as the regular official White
House program, but many other fes-
tivities were crowded into the calen-
dar last year. Mrs. Harding's break
down in health was undoubtedly hast
ened by her devotion to the tremen-
douslv heavy duties as Mistress Of the
White House. Mrs. Harding's con-
valescence has progressed so far that
she is permitted to sit up for few
moments each day, but hre ultimate
recovery will naturally be very slow.

Missouri Campaign
Proves to be Exciting
nv Inifcd Tress.,

Washington, Oct. l6.-When any
body opposes Senator James A. ReeG
Of Missouri and keeps on opposing
him, full sized fight is the inevitable
result.
Senator Reed is being aggressively
and stubbornly opposed in this years
senatorial campaign by r. r. Brew
ster. a fighting Republican. Which
is the reason Missouri has the best
sIampbang, knock-down and drag-out
political SCRAP Of the year. The vot-
ers are keenly enjoying the fight,
and presently will reward the victor.
The outcome appears at this writ
ing to depend upon cer;ain Repub-
licans who refuse to 90 along with
their party on the wet and dry issue.
Reed is after ther votes. He has en-
phatically announced for modifying
the Volstead law to permit beer and
light wines. Brewster, on the cor
trary, says he is as dry as the Eigh-

President Praises
Work of Congress
Definite Move to be Made TO Aid in
European Struggle-DefendS Tar
ilf in Letter Sent to Rep.
MOndell.

Washington. Oct. Is - A definite
move by the United States Govern
ment looking toward the solution Of
the European problem seemed nearer
today as the result Of a striking dec
laration by President Harding in his
letter to House Republican Leader
Mondell, praising the work of the
SiXty-Seventh Congress.
After defending the tariff policy ap-
proved by Congress, Harding said:
"The last thing in our thoughts is
aloofness from the rest of the world
"We wish to be helpful, neighborly,
useful.
"To protect ourselves first. and then
use the strength accruing through
that policy, for the general welfare
of mankind, is our sincere purpose"
The President made no mention Of
the manner in which the United States
could aid Europe, but the belief is
growing here that an economic con-
ference may be called by this country
within the next few month. Such
move has been strongly urged by
many representative groups i'm the
country and by leaders Of both politi-
cal parties.
In his letter to Mondcll, which *
generally considered here as partici-
patton in the campaign by the eXecu-
tive and an appeal for the reelection
cf a Republican Congress, Harding
Seemed to point out that this coun-
try was first put on its own house
in order" before attempting to aid
Europe.
He outlined how government eX-
penditures, particularly those of the
army and navy, have been reduced and
how flexible tariff designed to meet
changing world conditions has been
enacted. This is regarded as signif
can't because the administration is
known to be withholding its help un-
til the European powers take SINH
lar steps-particularlY reduction of
military and naval expenditures.
"The first duty is to protect our ma
tional interests" said the President.
"but in many ways real protection
comes from cooperation with other
nations The best intelligence Of the
day recognizes the need TO encourage
intimacy and understanding in the So
cial, economic and political family of
nations; and it recognizes that, in thus
inaugurating a plan which looks to
intimate consideration Of the facts,
we are Offering means Of true uni
fication and sodality among the in
terestS which make M our industrial
civilization, and we are taking step
toward the solution Of some Of the
most perpleXing problems which con-
front the nations"
