quisite OF Good Citizenship. He
pointed out the tendency Of the
young men and women in all walks
of life and all over the world. to
break away from all bonds and all
restraint He cited the prevalence
OF crime committed by the young
and the fact that every fifth family
in the United States has divorced
heads, leaving the children to grow
up apart and away from restraint.
He said the family misses the guild
ing hand Of the father. and that
men are too immersed in business.
Youth needs the strong, decisive

PROSECUTIONS BRING
PRISON SENTENCES

Moscow, April 2S-Four promi-
nent communists have been SEN
fenced to prison terms by the SUI
preme revolutionary tribunal on
the curious charge of driving a
technical expert to suicide because
he was not of their political belief.
Their conviction is looked ON as
notice to certain type of COM
munist that Premier Lenine's pol
icy of encouraging technical men,
regardless Of party affiliations
must be carried out. V. Kryenko,
president of the tribunal, himself
conducted the prosecution.
The trial revealed that v. Old
enberger, engineer and director OF
the Moscow water works, had been
harrassed to the point of self de-
struction by the four members of
the board of control, who pre-
ferred false charges against him
because they did not want non
partyman in such responsible
position.

M ACTION BY

n Mayor Curley today de-
that nearly every member
~, !, .ongress, ou the senate particular
:, = d today either for or against
Y, ,ssor and the possibility OF get
.,as MI an impartial tribunal for a
',riFe In investigation is unlikely.
sm nv message was in reply to one
,som -. Mayor Curley urging a con-
srossional s investigation Of the
z Ssw england textile strike.
eT regret to say" the senator
". IVA nthat in my opinion any at
ssn,nt to obtain favorable action
mon the strike by the present
congress will be futile.
@There is evidently a movement
5,hrouphout the country among
sanitalistic interests to refuse to
srbitrate or otherwise asree to a
COMPROMISE settlement of existing
strikes It is also my opinion that
ne majority of officials directing
tbe ,policy OF the present admins
ration are not in sympathy with
ne strikers point Of view. To
submit a strike investigation to
those antagonistfc to the funda-
mental rights of the laboring
class. such as the right to organ
izs and collective bargaining,
would hurt rather than help the
strikers"

penditure of $134,00,000 on re
clamation projects throughout the
country has been recommended to
Congress by the Department OF
the Interior. OF this enormous
sum $16,2O0,000 is allocated to
completion of eleven projects in
eleven Western and Southwestern
states. Work on all Of them is
Is now under way.
The sum of $2S,000,000 is SET
aside, under the departments
recommendations, for immediate
use on four proposed projects in
Arizona and California. 1t would
also take $9O,OO0,000 more to
complete these projects, the de-
partment estimated.
The projects which the depart
ment desired completed and the
amount recommended to each,
follows
Grand Valley, Col, $1,000, 900;
Boise, Idaho, $1,2O0,00O; Minido-
Ra, Idaho, $2,OOO,OOO; Sun River,

Dam Cost is Enormous
The expenditure Of $5,000,0 600

this project would cost $50,00O,-
goo more to complete. An estim-
ate of $15,O00,O0O was set aside
Tor the All-American Canal, in
california, with an additional es-
Innate of $2O,OO0,OO0 to complete
the project.
The department urged the ex-
penditure of $4,OO0,000 on the
farker project, in Arizona, for
which $10,OO0,0OO additional
would be needed to complete. In
'ne same state $4,000.O00 was al
90 suggested foi the San Carlos
project, which would need $10,-
vVV,O0O more to finish.
An amendment to the second
deficiency bill, calling for an ap-
pfopriatton of $16,000,000 to be-
GIN work on the projects recon-
mehded by the department., was
recently voted down through a
