EDITORIAL DIGEST

On the heels of the announcement by a
wealthy Chicago woman, who is lecturing on
sociological psychology, that women have
emerged from their serfdom and are now
victors, merely demanding the right to be
let alone, to develop, to demonstrate and
to expand, comes in a news item from Bos-
ton an alarming proof of this demand for ex-
pansion. Womans invasion of mans sphere
has extended to girls on the playground.
The boys Of Greater Boston are making a
stand against their entry into sport hither-
to almost exclusively their own-marbles. On
the sidewalks of the suburb, since signs of
spring appeared, passers-by, forced to detour
to the curbing, have found girls almost as
numerous as boysS in the game. The sisters
play for keeps, too, and often with skill
that has sent the brothers home marbleless.
The boys of Greater Boston are taking a
stand, says the correspondent, but does not
add in what way the conflict is waged and
whether or not the girls resort to strictly
feminine methods Of combat Neither does he
tell us of the outcome. Merely taking stand
in community in which the feminine ele-
ment outnumbers the male sounds much
like forlorn hope, with defeat not far
distant.-Indianapoli Star. Qnd. Rep.)
An astounding page of local history has
been turned by the decision of Judge Inger-
soil that Mary E. Drischman is not entitled
to the estate of Alice Gerry Griswold, en-
bracing hundreds of thousands of dollars,
wonderful jewels, heirIooms and realty
property Of great value.
To read a novel and exclaim at it's plot
being but the fancy of highly-keyed brain
is one thing. To find that great estate has
been subjected to such remarkable treat
ment, as is in the evidence and not contro-
verified by defending counsel, is another.
All the elements are here for an absorb
ing story. The wealthy woman, the intimacy
formed with an outsider, the gradual as
sumption of power by the trustee and con-
fidential employee, the estrangement of hus-
band and wife, the exclusion Of the Italian
countess, daughter; the gradual reduction
of Mrs. Griswod to borrowing money for
meals and wearing tattered clothing are pro-
nounced as facts influencing the judges de-
cision.
That truth indeed is stranger than fiction
here has its powerful onfirmation.-Atlan-
tic City Press. (Ind.)

the Georgian be found shy of local news this

Inc ponce commissioner OF New York has
lifted the ban on smoking by women in pub
TIC as suddenly as he clamped it down, when
he learned that Alderman McGuinness' anti
smoking ordinance never had been passed by
the board of aldermen or Signed by Mayor
Hylan.
Daniel w. F. Mccoy, an employe in the
city clerks office, was led forth, caparisoned
IN sack cloth and ashes as official goat for
an error that had set pro and even anti-smok-
to the far reaches of Harlem
Mccoy, it was explained, was charged with
clipping the official city record for resolu-
tons and ordinances that have been adopted
and approved by the mayor and sending them
along to the proper officials for enforcement
Mccoy still was too much overcome by the
wrath that had descended upon his head to
explain just how he happened to include the
anti-smoking bill in his list of ordinances
adopted and approved
City Clerk Cruise rallied to McCoy's de-
tense, however and intimated broadly that
the clerks office by no means had corner
on ivory.
Had Police Commissioner Enright or his
aides read the purported ordinance carefully
ne declared they would have discovered it
was not proper document, as it did not bear
the stamp of the clerks office certifying that
it had been approved by the mayor
News that it was all mistake came like
reprieve from the gallows to proprietors of
scores of places where qualification of mi
lady's passion for the soothing weed was the
chief source of bread and butter revenues
Fashionable smoke shops for women had
sprung up IN Fifth avenue, Broadway and
other advanced centers, while Greenwich Viii
lage had come to depend almost exclusively
on smoke rings to produce an atmosphere of
Bohemianism-since the passing of the coup
that cheers.

WINTER WHEAT CROP
ESTIMATE is GREATER
THAN FIRST EXPECTED

According to the government esti-
mates on winter wheat prospects for
May, the crop made prospective gain
of 100000 bushels over the April
returns. The indications are for
crop of $4,000, 900, which would be but
10000 bushels less of winter grain
than was actually harvested last year.
1t is possible, of course, for this re-
cent marked improvement in crop
prospects to continue and is not I'M
likely that we may exceed the five
year crop average, 1917 to 1921, should
conditions continue favorable upntil
harvest.
A condition of S35 was shown by
crop reporters, on May 1, against 1874
on April /. Outlook is for a smaller
wheat crop than last year in the south
west, with the four states which raise
the greater part of the grain that goes
for export showing approximately 3d.
100000 bushels less than last year,
. while the states in the central west
have practically that much more than
| in 1921
State Estimates
The aggregate wheat crop of Kansas
! Oklahoma, Nebraska and Texas, as
given by the report is about 2O5,00O,-
| 600 bushels, compared with 254,00O,-
| 900, bushels harvested last year The
F.! six states east of the Missouri river
with an outlook for 166, 781 900 bushels
| have 50,000,000 more than last year.
! A rye crop of 100000 bushels was
| indicated by the report showing 9,0O0,-
| 600 bushels more than a month ago,
and compared with 58,000,000 bushels
| harvested last year. The condition OF
91.7 showed 81 points above the April
| figures, compared with 925 in May last
year and ten year average of 9O.2
| Abandoned Acreage
! The loss in wheat acreage due main
| ly to drought from that seeded last fall
| for this years harvest was 6.446,000
/ acres, or 14.5 per cent, compared with
| a ten year average of 10.4 per cent
leaving 38,131, 900 acres for harvest
compared with 42,702,0O0 acres last
| year and ten year average of &c.,
/ $4,000 acres.
| The abandoned acreage in Indiana
is given at per cent, leaving 100000
acres for harvest Ohio shows only

Los ANGELES. Feb. 1S-The
failure of Edward II. Sands missing

lor, slain film director, to respond TO
an offer of immunity from District

to letter purporting to have been
dictated by Sands, issued a letter to
the press stating Sands would not be
prosecuted on an old charge of en-
bezzlement if he would surrender and
tell what he knew OF the Taylor
staying
The district attorney said he had
no reason to believe the supposed
Sands letter was genuine but de-
clared his offer of immunity stood
irrespective of this consideration.
Police investigators and the district
attorney have insisted from the start
that Sands could furnish the key to
the mystery.

of the last persons who saw Taylor
before he was shot to death, removed
from her residence In the Wiltshire
district to an unnamed address to-
day. Friends of the actress said she
was seeking seclusion to get some
rest. made necessary by the stress of
repeated interviews concerning the
case.
Official investigators said Miss
Normand had give satisfactory re-
sponses to all questions put to her,
and expressed no interest concerning
her removal today.
