Orlando, Fla, June l6.-Dcclaring
that there is no place for IAN Invisible
characteri2ing the usurpation OF gov
ernmcntal functions by the Eu I[luX
Elan Or any other organization rs
destined to do inestimablc wrong to
society, United States Judge Henry D.
Clayton assailcd the policies and prjn-
ciples OF such societies in fiery
phraScology today in an address be-
fore the Florida State Bar associa-
tion.
"gt is true" Judge Clayton said,
that the people have the right to
rcvolutioniZc or change their govern
mcnt whenever they see fit to do SO,
but it is quite different thing for
this set OF men or that set Of men to
undertake outside Of the law to de-
clare that the government is ineGi-
cient and to arrogate to themselves
the power TO furnish supplemental re-
modies."
There is no place. the speaker
continued, "for an invisible empire
within the United States, nor any rea-
son for clan or gang to do any part
OF the business Of governing or cor
recting Or Furnishing citizens. A secret
organization for such purposes is
reprehenSible notwithstanding ayowals
OF it's members that they have sworn
to uphold the constitution Of the
United States. Such avowals and such
oaths can not defeat the just charge
that these organizations are con
spiracies against law and govern
ment."
Judge Clayton said he would cite
the case OF "an eminent citizen of
Alabama" who, he said, Joined the
khan and later discovered that reg
ular docket was maintained contain
ing cases against citizens of the state.
After he had succeeded in clear
ing this docket many OF whose cases
involved mere personal grievance OF
spite, this good man abandoned his
fellowship the speaker said, adding
that organizations such as this have
no place in our land, they are not
useful in the governing business and
can not fail to be productive OF crime"

INTERESTS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR H~OMEMAKERS

(By DR.. II. ii. Bishop)
Speed or Endurance


Have you noticed the different
way in which different men eccom-
plish their work?
There probably is at least one who
works steadily and evenly right
through the day without any alter
alton in his efficiency except per-
haps a gradual lessening during the
last hour or two.
Then there is another who un-
usually is slow in starting, but who
once in action, maintains a higher
level of productivity than the first.
and may be able to hold the pace
longer besides.
Notice how a MAJ works.
He usually throws himself with
great vigor into his task. He starts
in a minute and is quickly ahead of
all competitors. But the chances
are that his energy will not hold
out. He taps it too fast. After a
couple of hours or less he feels
tired.
Each of these types is familiar
and there are as many variations as
there are individuals. Yet men rare
ly take this into consideration when
blocking out their day.
II 10 oStltss IOl tie btL NodS, IlISh-
strung. quickly-fatigued man to try
to live by the same program as his
phlegmatic, even-tempered neighbor
The conditions under which the two
produce the best results are not
identical.
The man who cannot do~his best
until after q long period Of warming
up, ought to stick to his job. once
at it, as long as he can. The man
who accomplishes most by spurts
and takes intervals of play between
times, ought not to feel that he is
doing wrong in failing to initiate the
steady worker. Both can do high
grade work, but not under the same
conditions.
Every man ought to discover the
special conditions for himself, in SO
far as he can. Otherwise there Is
waste. Nothing is gained and much
is lost by trying to run everybody
through the same mould.

To marry and arrive at middle age

saults, the poor soul fell plump into
the apple-tree in Old Orchard.
But by the time Nancy and Nick
had reached the earth and begun to
search for him he had gone again
So no wonder the people of Brigh'
Meadowland and Whispering Fores'
and Ripple Creek and even Ole
Orchard itself hadn't see him.
When the Moon-Man landed in the
top branches of the apple tree he
was so shaken up and so breathless
with his great fall he didn't move for
a minute.
Then he sat up and rubbed his
eyes, and felt all over his bald head
for bumps and looked to see if his
clothes we're torn. Then he had
time to look about and see what sort
of place he had landed in.
There in the tree top was a funny
little house of old boards and in the
doorway stood a queer little fellow
with enormous top-boots and a
spotted hanky on his head.
"Howdy." said the little fellow,
where did you come from?"
"Blow!' cried Peerabout indig-
nantly. What do you think I am

Broader Copper Inquiry

Consumers of copper in This, country
are showing continued interest in the
mark kel. and are putting ont additional
inquiries. according to reliable trade
observers. IL is said the users have
been working on such Il scant supply
of the metal that they will. sooner or
ater. be compelled 10 enter the market
10 replenish their stocks.
For several years there has been no
great inducemCnt for users to purchase
for their requirements far in advance.
Consumers knew il was always possible
for them TO get the metal or virtually
prompt delivery. and therefore they
have been working on virtually hand
to-mouth basis for some time.
However. the shutdown Of the lead
ing copper properties and the good ex-
port demand in the last months has
reduced the surplus to such an extent
that users. for the first time. are sound.
ing the market for deliveries beyond
the usual time of the last few months.
This would lead to the belief. II any
further substantial inroads are made
into the amount Of copper in this coun-
try the consumers can he expected to
be more free in placing their orders for
the future.
1t is hoped in leading quarters that
no attempt will be made to bring about
any sharp advance in quotations at
this time. or in the comparatively near
future-say the next four or six months:
The best authorities are more inclined
TO work for the establishment OF
confidence among the users, and believe
il this can be accomplished quotations
will take care Of themselves and the
market will work higher under the old
law of supply and demand
