~ ROFESSOR A. BERGET, Eu.
N ropes we'll known scientist,
persists In his claim that the
American railroad now closing
the Florida Keys is liable, unwittingly,
to ahut off Europe's central heating
system--the Gulf Stream.
Berget's theory has divided the camp
of European oceanographic authorities,
who are arguing pro and con. Berget
forecasts diplomatic complications If
the American road continues its geo.
graphical meddling.
Now comes the equally noted French
scientist. Le Danois, who says talk
about the Gulf Stream heating Europe
is all nonsense, anyway. He has pre-
sented long document to the Acad-
envy Of Sciences In Paris by which he
claims to prove that the Gulf Stream,
as generally considered, Is myth 80
far as Europe is concerned.
That local little American current,
the Gulf Stream, he says, may run as
far as Bermuda, but not further. All
others who have believed In stream
Of hot water from America heating the
shores Of Europe have been mistaken.
"a collective error" he calls it. His
explanation of the warm waters flowing
along the coast of France--conclusion
easy to reach without even leaving
Par!s-is that the summer heat di!ates
the salty equatorial waters causing
them to flow into the less salty waters
Of the north, all Of which has nothing
to do with America or the Gulf Stream.
sincs the equator Is conveniently near
Europe, being directly south Of Senegal.
Berget Bases His Belief
On Long Study OF Ocean
Professor Berget's belief in the Gulf
Stream, and consequent fears Of a
glacial Europe II any one tampers with
it, is founded on long, tedious study
Of ocean currents when he was the
Prince Of Monaco's right-hand man
during the war. They cruised all over
the Atlantic watching the drift Of tanks
and bottles In order to discover the
possible routes Of floating mines. He

"A. France. q small group of
Paris midinettes have formed
a marriage club. Their insignia is a
small bit Of green ribbon on the coat,
so that any man seeing girl decorated
IN this way knows right away that she
Is quite serious and wants to get mar

The marriage competition is keen
among the girls, and the lonely ones
have taken to this form Of advertise
ment to settle down in life and have a
chance to leave tho sweatshops. Due
TO She facilities of life in Paris, there
are numbers Of bachelors, many Of
whom would Ike 60 get married, only
up to now they never seemed TO meet
the right sort Of girl.
Serious girls have hitherto met ST
tractive young men or their way TO
work, and have seen others daily where
they lunch, but they have never dared
allow the men TO speak to them, nor
dirt with the men. because they were
afraid Of being taken for something

tell the intentions Of the men. and the
men always suspected women who no.

~w T WOULD not be true to say that
the decision Of Attorney General

enormous sensation In France. Few

 TO SEEK SCALP IF
 HARRY DAQGHERTY
Labor Leader Would Impeach Attorney General For Putting Burns at Head of Secret
 Service
WASHINGTON BUREAU THE AGE-HERALD
Washington. D. e, Nov. 24

Samuel Gompers holds that the ap- pointment of William ]. Burns as head of the secret service operations of the United States by Attorney Gen eral Harry M. Daugherty, constitutes reason why the latter should be impeached
 MT. Gompers said today: "The Chi cago injunction written by MT. Daugherty and the appointment by MT. Daugherty of William J. Burns as hea of the secret service operations of the government, will be two of the principal issues made before the jul dietary committee by the American Federation of Labor.
 Ut will be shown that the ap- pointment of Burns was an affront to the honor and moral integrity of the people of the United States: and that by so doing the department of justice, the ideals of which should be of the highest character. laid itself open to the liability of a degradation which should not be permitted in any pub lie service
 Sensation Promised
 The reasons for this condemna- tion of Mir. Daugherty's action in ap- pointing Detective Burns will be laid before the committee in full and largely in documentary form. I con fid itly believe that when the public is fully informed on this point there will be a wave of moral revulsion before which no official could stand
 Mir. Gompers made it plain to news paper men that the federation expects to produce evidence of the "damag- ing" variety, and that there will be produced considerable evidence con corning which the public so far, he said, had no intimation.
 Re. .resentatives Keller of Mime sotl and Woodruff of Michigan, hay ing returned to Washington, declare their intention of pressing theii charges against Daugherty. The At torney General has announced "readyw It is probable that he vii conduct his own defense.
