Already Preparing
For Christmas Mail
Ny United Prcss.)

Washington, Oct. 1G.--Plans for
carrying oU, an expeditions and eff
cient Mail Early for Christmas
campaign were sent to poStmasters all
over the country today by John II.
Bartlett, first assistant postmaster
general.
Postmasters were instructed to pre-
pare at once for what is expected to
be the heaviest holiday rush in sea-
sons.
Salient among the plans was sug-
gestion that school children be enlist
ed to aid in the campaign by writing
themes on the advantages of early
mailing, and by verbally spreading
the word throughout their commUni-
ties to avoid the last few days mail
ing rush.
Bartlett also urged postmasters to
solicit motion picture theater man
ayers to flash slides requesting per
sons to mail their Christmas pack
ages at least two or three weeks in
advance.

Christians Leave Thrace
On Journey to Crescent

Comstantinople, Oct. 1e Thousands
of Christians, many hungry, anc
with all their earthly belonging,
packed on their backs, trudged out OF
Thrace today, as the cross made way
for the Crescent.
Aged men and women, many carry
ing children, walked toward the Bal
kan peninsula leaving forever the
homes that they have occupied for
years.
Some loaded their household goods
in OK carts; others left everything
behind and fled in order to be out of
Thrace in fifteen days, the time limit
set by the allied generals and Turk
ish representative at the Mudania
conference.
Most of the trains in Thrace have
been Communicated by the Greek gov
eminent to carry soldiers who viii

reach the ports. The civilian popu-
lation had to depend on the ricke;y

Rodosto, on the Balkan penmsular,
was choked with refugees. The SUI

Little relief, it was believed, viii

in Greece. Food supplies there arc
very inadequate because of the thous-

Four British and three French bat
talions were entering Thrace today
on the heels of the departing Greeks.
When the last of the Greeks have de-
parted, the allies will turn the terri

said Of labor unions. at times.
President Cradle. OF the railway
maintenance OF way men, has been
deposed, and it is thought the ac-
ton resulted from the act OF Mr..
Cradle in keeping his men out OF
the strike movement last summer.
\ great deal OF pressure was
brought upon Mir. Cradle to have
his men walk ont with the shop
men. But Cradle said the mainte-
nance men should remain at work
and take their chance with the
Railroad Labor Board,
rs we see it, the Cradle policy
has been justified by events. The
men were able TO keep on the pay
roll all summer, they served the
railroads and their country, and
since then they have been favored
with a wage increase which has
proven more or less satisfactory.

Hoover Speaks On
Europe's Rehabilitation

Washington. Oct. IA definite
statement of the administrations at
tit1de on the question of European
rehabilitation was the Interpretation
official Washington today. put upon
the speech of Secretary OF Commerce
Hoover before a Republican gather
ing in Toledo. O., last night.
The speech was regarded Tor one
thing as an answer to many sugges-
tions from various sources that the
United States actively intervene to
bring order out of political ana
economic chaos in Europe. One OF
these suggestions, made by James NJ
Cox. was that Hoover be appointed
TO represent the U. S. as an arbiter
of Europe's troubles, particularly
her economic troubles. =,
Hoover disposed of this and all
similar suggestions with the state
ment that f urope must reform pollt
ically and get same economically
before any outside agency can help.
His statement that Europe can even
tually repay every dollar of war debt
owed this government was recog-
nized as an expression Of the admin
istration's view. President Harding
is known to agree with Hoover in
regarding the war debt as an obliga-
ton owed to the taxpayers of the
United States, rather than to the
government.
Hoover, it was pointed out in Of
fetal circles, told Europe in MS
speech lust how it can be assured of
American sympathy and cooperation
He said disarmament, readjustment
of economic boundaries, manifesto
ton of a desire for peace and GOOD
will politically must be brought
about before Europe can recover.

XII KLUX KLEANNG

However many bad features
the mob law may possess and
however closely connected IS the
principle Of its working with that
of the Ku KluX Klan. the klanS-
men have now undoubtedly taken
a stand that will raise them IN the
estimation of the citizens of this
city and the surrounding county.
Their charges OF illicit gambling
houses seem about to be sub
stantiated by a specially appointed
grand jury now in session III
Arlington county.
1t seems beyond a doubt the
gambling denS which they advo-
cate closing have been IN exist
ence. 1t is against the law OF the
State and nation for such houses
of chance to be rum either publicly
or privately, therefore. it IS The
business Of every law abiding citi-
zen to see that their doors are
closed and closed permanently.
Authorities whose business il
is to watch over the execution may
or may not have failed i'll their
duty. but, nevertheless these con-
ditions are existing contrary to all
law and now that the fact has been
brought to light through the pub
lie press and to through the
efforts OF the Ku KluN k)an, It
should be probed to the end and
the guilty party or parties made to
pay the Penalty.
Not, in this particular, the
Khan has not violated any OF the
precious laws OF the State or ma
ton when it brings these things
to the front and deserves full
credit for exposing these vices,
which, knowingly or uknowing-
", have escaped the eagle eye
OF those whose express business
it is to know Covered or TN
covered, then, there is no cause Tor
hatred between the klanSmen and
the peacc-loving. law-abjding citi-
zeus. Rather there should exist
a feeling OF gratitude and OF what
might be termed 'brotherly love. -
1t should be the wish OF every
patriotic, public-Spiritcd citizen
that the offenders be run to
earth and Justice administered im-
partially with all due thanks to
our brother citizens who ride with
masked faces in the ranks OF the
Imperial Invisible Empire.

Recently the statement has been

to the President that ne
would ask Congress 10 so revise
the dry laws as to permit foreign |
ships to bring in whisky under
seal. Edwards and his running |
mate were elated. Frelinghuysen,
the next friend of the President,
has been standing out against any
sort OF compromise with the
demon.
Still again, tie unfeeling Demo-
Gratis have been setting some good
stories afloat. They say Messrs.
Frelinghuysen and Runyon re-
Gently attended banquet given
by an Italian Republican club, and
that wines and liquors flowed
freely. The friends of the Re
publican candidates say this is a
wicked Democratic yarn, that
their candidates arrived at the
banquet very late, and saw no in
toxicants; but the circumstantial
evidence is strong. The Repub-
lican candidates admit that they
were present a part of the time,
and il is difficult for most folks to
envisage an Italian banquet tina:
would be wholly dry. They think
Mr.. Frelinghuysen and his friends
must not have been at all OBJ
servant, if they saw nothing to
drink.
Still another cause for embar-
rassment grows out of the fact
that Mr.. Frelinghtysen, IN a
more or less lucid interval, IN
yited his friend, Secretary Weeks,
to come to New Jersey and make
a speech in his behalf. Later anH-
ious and solicitious friends OF the
New Jersey Senator got hold OF
him and explained how he had
thrown fine int into the fire be-
cause. said they, did not the Sena-
tor remember how the Secretary
of War was numbered among the
mildly vets: Some time ago Sec
rotary Weeks made speech III
which he said the sale of wine and
beer should be legalized as the
only way out OF the present con-
fused condition OF affairs in the
country. Now the Democrats are
employing uncommonly large
posters to tell the voters that the
wet Mr.. Weeks is coming to help
out the uncommonly dry Mr.,
Frclinghuysen, and that this shows
lust how consistent the Repub-
lican candidate really is.
Thus fal the Democrats have
seen to it that their wires did not
become crossed in any such way as
this. They have avoided the pos
sibility OF embarrassment by clos
inc the door against outside speak
ers who might muddy the waters
this is, il one may speak OF
water in this connection. No out
side orator is permitted to come
within the three-mile limit OF
Jersey.
One is permitted, therefore, to
assume that the election in New
Jersey is going to afford a rea!
test of the rise and fall OF the
prohibition sentiment on the East
ern seaboard. Both sides have
apparently agreed to paramount
the issue. q
