DEMONSTRATIONS
IN LIFE-SAVING
Director David j. Yates Enter
tains Large Crowds in Giving
Demonstrations inaEirst Aid
and Resuscitation.

The presence in Brunswick of Di-
rector David ]. Yates, of the first aid
| and life saving department of the
southern division of the Red Cross.
has aroused a great deal of interest
among hundreds who have availed
themselves of the opportunity of wit
Messing his demonstrations and at
tending his lectures on various death
grips and the latest methods of
breaking drowning PERSONS hold.
Last night large and intensely in
terested crowd attended Mr.. Yates
demonstration and lecture at Gates
swimming pool. Tomorrow morning
from 9:45 to ~ o'clock he will give
special instructions to those who de-
sire to take up life saving work. A
special invitation is extended the Bow
Scouts, Mr.. Yates being q special
Scout commissioner, giving first aid
instructions to them.
The demonstrations given by the
Red Cross director in life saving
methods last night were revelation
to those present. He showed the four
grips that people usually take on their
would-be rescuers when drowning and
how to break the grip and carry the
person safely to land In his lectures
Mr.. Yates gives a thorough demon
stration of the Shaffer method of az
tificial respiration, the prone pressure
method, which is regarded as the
standard throughout the country. The
same method may be applied success
fully in cases where one lis overcome
by smoke, gas or electric shock In
all these cases, explained Mr.. Yates,
the diaphram is paralyzed
1t was related by the director that
a woman in Knoxville, Tenn, resus-
citated four year old girl, who had
been overcome by gas, in two hours
after she had witnessed a demonstra-
ton of the Shaffer method given by
Mr. Yates. Statistics show that 5000
thousand persons lose their lives an
nually by drowning.
Both the American Red Cross and
Boy Scouts, under whose auspices Mr..
Yates is giving his demonstrations
and lecturse, consider this one of the
most important branches of their
work. Not only is it shown how to
render first aid but the actual saving
of a drowning person by the applica-
ton of infallible life saving methods.

Yates intended to alternate between

1t is believed that the interest
aroused here in life-saving by Director
Yates will be permanent.

ACTION
ON TARIFF IN
SENATE TODAY
Favorable Vote Said to
Be Assured; Goes to
Harding's S Desk.
Democratic Effort to
Send Back to Confer
ence Fails to Garry.

Washington, Sept. 18.-Final legisla-
tive action on the administration tariff
bill at p. N. Tuesday was agreed
upon late Monday by the senate. Al
that hour the vote will be upon adop-
ton of the conference report with
no doubt of favorable action.
After the senate vote, the measure
will be made ready for President
Harding and will become a law OF
the day following his approval of it
In the four hours debate that is to
precede the final vote, democratic op-
ponents plan to continue their final
figt hon the bill, which was opened
Monday by Senator Simmons of North
Carolina, minority leader in the tariff
fight. Speaking for more than three
hours, he assaled the bill as one that
would increase living costs by billions
of dollars a year and would result in
the formations of hundreds of thous-
ands of trusts and combinations in re-
straint of trade.
Cameron Joins Attack
The attack on the measure was not
confined TO the democratic side, Sena-
tor Cameron, republican, Arizona, de,

cents a pound on long staple cotton

ferees had exceeded their authority in

dent so as to permit of American

ator Cummins' ruling, but the chair
man was sustained by a vote of 43 to
81.
While the senate was araguing the
tariff bill, the house ways and means

committee began consideration of a
of the dye embargo licensing system
act, which would be repealed by the
tariff bill. Final decision went over
until Tuesday.
Take Issue With McCumber
In his attack on the tariff, Senator
Simmons took Issue with a statement
by Chairman McCumber of the fl
nance committe that the level of the
equivalent ad valorem in this measure
was below the level of those in the
famous Payne-Aldrich law. He con-
tended that actually the level was
higher and that if, in actual operation
of the bill it should prove to be low
er, it would be because many of the
rates were absolutely prohibitive".
referring to the raw wool rate OF
81 cents a secured pound, Senator
Simmons said it appeared republicans
were making a deliberate effort to
mislead the people and falsify the
facts. He read official figures tC
show that the emergency tariff rate
on wool had worked out at 221a cents
a pound, or Sh cents less than that
proposed in the pending measure.

No Seats for Women
in Deputy Chamber,
Episcopalians Vote

Portland, Ore, Sept. 1S.-Women
were denied seats in the house of
deputies of the Protestant Episcopal
church in the United States by a vote
of that body in general convention
here late Monday.
The vote was taken after a debate
in which those who opposed the pro-
posed amendment to the constitution
paid tribute to the work and influence
of women in the church but made the
point that if women were admitted the
men would eventually drop out under
pleas of other business and that the
men would be ''abdicating their re-
sponsibility."

San Francisco, who was secretary of
joint commission appointed at the
last general convention to inquire into

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-(By The Asso-

reported Monday as several more rail
roads put into effect the shopcraft
peace plan and as the number of men
employed on other roads increased. 1t
now is estimated that shop forces are

Officials of both the Chicago, Mil

shopmen returned to work by the thou
sands during the day, and without any
signs of violence noted Saturday, when
the returning workers demanded that
all nonunion employees be dismissed.
Meanwhile the Southern railway and
the Mobile & Ohio, which is controlled
by the Southern, announced that they
had signed the shopcraft agreement,
which was approved by the general
policy committee of the unions last
week. J. e. German, president of the

no further negotiations would be car

The executives of some of the roads

granting seats to women.
'It seems to me that this is mat
ter in which the church is pleading for
liberty. Granting of liberty often solves
a problem. There is no great demand
for women in the house of deputies
but just because they are not allowed
seats there Is a great deal of agitation
for the change" Summarizing the con-
clusion of the commission which in
vestigated, he said there was a large
opposition to the proposed change,
that there was strong but small
element favoring 1t, and that there
was a large body in the church which
had no opinion on the matter. Argu-
ments in favor, he said, were the
example of the United States in
granting women equal rights, and the
strong pronouncement of the Lambeth
conference, in favor of it.
The deputies engaged in a debate

the foreign born miners, the ltahan
element predominates.
Near Mark Twain Land
Half a dozen miles to the south of
jackson is Calaveras county, made Ia

Mark Twain. This is the heart OF
the mother lode country and for more
than go years its mines have poured
forth a golden treasure. To the north
of Amador county and adjoining II IS
Eldorado county, where gold was hrst
discovered in California in 1S4S.
The Argonaut mine was one OF the
first workings opened in the mother
lode country of California, and only
slightly younger is the Kennedy,

BRITISH TAKE
STEPST0sTOP
TURK ADVANCES
War Not Anticipated
but Measure Made as
Protection Move.
Sacrifice of Forces IF
Straits Inva d e d Is
Guarded Against.

London, Sept. 18.-(By The Associ-
ated Press.)-The declaration that
Great Britain does not intend to en-
gage in any new war, obtained from
authoritative sources Monday, coupled
with other statements of a modified
policy. is taken to mean that the series
of cabinet meetings and ministerial con-
ferences in the past few days has been
partly in preparation for possible at
tacks on the British forces by the KEN
alists and partly as preparation for the
contemplated general conference for
the settlement of the Turkish ques-
ton.
Prepare for Emergency
While it is not seriously expected in
military quarters that Mustapha Kemal
Pasha, head of the Turkish nationalists,
will make an attempt either to capture
Constantinople or cross the Straits,
the British wish TO be ready in case
of emergency and not sacrifice the
meager contingent of troops long sta
toned in Constantinople
The many statements issued with the
permission of No. 10 Downing street
after each conference are interpreted
as emphasizing the intention of the
cabinet to carry out the policy which
ID has faithfully adhered to for more
than three years regarding Turkey and
the Straits, and, despite much criticism,
at home and abroad, that policy, which
is coupled with the Greek defeats, will
still be vigorously followed
The first task of Premier Lloyd
George is to win the French to his
point Of view. Great Britain is laying
her cards on the table, and it is not
her intention, it is declared, TO attempt
to make a new Gibraltar of Gallipoli; /;
she merely wishes not to give the
Turks another opportunity in case of
a general war to waste so many Euro
pean lives by Turkish control of the
Straits.
Curzon to See Poineare
The cabinet is thoroughly convinced
that French public opinion is with the
Turks, but Lord Curzon, British sec
retary of foreign affairs, who is pro-
ceeding to Paris. will point out to Pre-
mier Poincare that bigger issues than
Turkey are at stake; that the whole
peace of the Balkans. future relations
of Russia and the entire Near East are
involved; that if Great Britain can risk
disturbing her Mohammed connections
by forcing the Turks to accept a Euro
pean settlement of the Straits. then
France can afford to yield and CO.
operate with the British in a Turkish
peace.

Prospector Injured
When His Dynamite
Explodes, Blown High

Butte, Sept. 1S.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-A dispatch TO The
Miner from Virginia City says Richard
Beel, son of the proprietor of the Vir-
ginia City hotel, was seriously injured
by an explosion of dynamite Monday.
The Watson and Quimby company has
had men out prospecting with the idea
of locating the Alder Gulch lode.
Young Beel and another man were
engaged in this work. ,Beel had drilled
three holes and loaded them with dyna-
mite. He supposed he had split but
one fuse and went back to camp for
more matches to light the others.
AS he entered the excavation where
he had drilled the holes. with the pur-
pose of lighting the other fuses, the
two other charges exploded together.
Beel was blown about 40 feet, and his
chest, arms and face badly lacerated.
His partner, who was working some
distance away, was not injured.
Beel was taken to Virginia City at
once and given surgical attention by
DR.. l.. G. LeClair, who is of the opinion
that the young mans eyesight may be
saved. He will be brought to Butte
Tuesday for further attention.

This third attempt to wall off the

dioxide had reached the miners and
performed their fatal office before the
unfortunates could build even an ex-
cuse for barrier.
Mine officials said death had come
to the entombed men painlessly. The
gases, they said, would produce first
letharagy, then coma and finally
death.
Jackson as a whole took the tragic
news calmly and eourageously. The
general topic of conversation, except
in the immediate family circles of the
dead, was arrangements for the fun

CALL CAb|NE 7
Of FRANCE To
DISCUSS WAR
Thought Oppos-
ed to Checking Turks
With Armies.

Paris, Sept. 1s.-(By The Associated
Press. IA meeting of the French cab
met has been hurriedly called for Tues
day morning to consider certain diver
gent views which exist between Great
Britain and France over the Straits.
The meeting originally was set for
Thursday, but the date was changed
Monday so that the ministers, under the
presidency of N. Millerand, could give
immedia consideration to the British
plans for the defense of the zone of
the Dardanelles as outlined in the Off
cial British note issued Saturday.
1t is believed that the French gov
ernment is opposed to military action
against the THrks in the event the lat
ter attempt to cross the Straits.
The French view is that military ac-
ton can only serve to arouse the Turks
and that the best way would be to call
an immediate conference to settle the
problem around the table.
