Mccormick Peeued
Objects to iceland
Purchase" Reports

CHICAGO, June 2S.-Harold +. Nc
Cormick, head of the executive COM
mittee of the International Harvester
company, today announced his inten-
tion to sue for libel every newspaper
which published the report that he
purchased a gland of another man to
be grated into his own body.
With this as the first count in his
libel suits. other counts. he declared,
will include charges of telephone tap
ping, invasion of his sick room, the
surrounding of his house and trespas-
sing upon his property.
1t was McCOrmick's first statement
since he went TO the Wesley Memorial
hospital, for an operation almost
three weeks ago and he made it plain
that he was chiefly incensed at the
repeated stories that he had taken
advantage of the unfortunate circum-
stances of a fellow man to deprive him
of p vital organ.
"That is utterly untrue" he said
and he pointed out that when the ru-
NOR first became current, Dr. Victor
Lespinasse, who attended him IN the
hospital, issued denial that a human
gland was used.
"This denial" said Mccormick
"was printed by some but not by all
of the newspapers which printed the
original story"
That the telephone wires into Nc
Cormick's house had been tapped was
officially reported to the Chicago Tel
ephone company during the day. Tel
ephone tapping, it was said, is Grim
inal act.

Endorses Federal System For
Reunited Country Patterned
After United States

PEKING, June 2S.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press. General Wu Pei Flu,
dominant figure of northern China,
today endorsed the recent suggestion
of General Chen Chung Ming. out
standing leader of the south, that a
federal system be adopted for re-
united China, patterned after that of
the United States of America. Cen
eral WI suggested that the TNeorgan-
lied republic be known as the United
States of China.
The majority of the provinces al
ready have signified their approval
of the proposal to reunite the coun-
try under a federal government at
Pel1ing, with each province enjoying
rights similar to those accorded the
separate states of the American
union, General WI said.
The quiet little man who drove
the Manchurian war lord, Chang Tso
Lin in rout from the gates of Pek-
ing, and recalled to office the con-
stitutional president, Ii Yuan Hung,
declared that sentiment is growing
in favor of the united China program
with American ideals as its guiding
star
WI asserted that he had no hesi-
tation in predicting that as China
travelled the road of progress she
would be found copying and putting
into practice Americas ideals to an
extent not reached by any other
country.
In the south, Wu said. where Sun
Vat Sens followers had become
familiar with western methods, the
new leader there, Chen Chung Ming,
who recently drove Sun from Cnton,

ever labor has a real grievance that

Congress promptly passes law to

Secretary Fall must be sacrificed
on the altar raised by the advocates
of socialism in this nation.
Secretary Fall represents the true

the right of the Individual and private
enterprise.
He believes that the government is
t. protect the individual in his con-
stitutional right to go ahead and do
business, and not to put the individual
out of business.
Such a doctrine is a death blow to
socialism, hence the attack on Fall
by those who would Russianize Amer
lea.
Fall is a westerner, he understands
the problems of western states and
he is a thorn in the side of the Pin

Eugene Laurant, the idol of the
kids and one of the most popular of
all the entertainers in America today
is coming to Chautauqua.
Do you remember the clock that
thinks?
Do you remember that remarkable
ring trick and the feeling you had
when Gene Laurant rammed your ring
down the throat of the big horse
pistol.
Laurant has lot of new tricks on
which he has spent years of work.
He is always working like beaver.
When you see him this time you will
meet some of your old friends, but
there will be a lot of new ones that
you have never seen before.
Laurant's show is always a thing Of
beauty. There is never a tiresome
moment.
The stage will be full of hids and
not one Of them will be embarrassed
or afraid. Gene Laurant has more
young friends over the country than
any entertainer in the business.
This show is worth twice the price
of admission just to see the young
sters have good time, but it isn't for
the youngsters Only. There are tricks
there thata will puzzle you and one or
two psychological problems that have
never yet been solved by anybody but

ILLINOIS VS.. COLORADO
Strong State Government Pays For
Itself Many Times Over When
Trouble Comes

Denver, June 26-The horrors of
the present Illinois mine war, in which
more than 40 men have been tortured
and slain, serve to emphasize the
peace and security which Colorado en-
joys with a strong Republican admin
istrGtion the keynote of whose policy
Is ''law and order" The strike which
resulted in complete breakdown of
humanity and civilization in the coal
district of Illinois is also in effect in
Colorado; but because of the firm hand
of the state government not one life
has been lest and no property has
been destroyed in Colorado since the
walkcut Las been in effect.
Human nature is the same in Colo
rsdo as in Illinois. During a great
Industrial crisis laws of humanity as
well as laws of government arc
almost certain to be violated unless
the government itself is strong enough
ard determined enough to enforce its
own statutes. Colorado has 70 reason
to believe that its coal miners, union
or non-union, are of different fiber
from the coal miners of Illinois Col
orado was saved from the terrors of
industrial warfare, not because the
men in its coal fields are better or
worse than those of Illinois but be-
cause respect for the authority of the
state government had been inspired in
union and non-union men alike.
The thoroughness and impartiality
with which order has been maintained
in Colorado is illustrated by the fact
that some mines have been closed COM
pleely by the strike and that in other
fields in the state a number of mines
are being operated, some on part-time.
Everywhere in the state, however,
peace prevails; mine guards, non-union
workers and strikers alike know that
rioting or melting to riot means swift
and certain punishment
In Illinois barbarous murders of
non-union men have been committed
in the last few days; Colorado has
not yet forgotten the killings which
took place on both sides in 1914 under
n non-Republican regime. For four
years, however, a policy of law and
order has ben rigidly enforced; today
in Colorado homes, lives and property
are secure because they are protected
by the strong hand of the state gov
eminent.

Always On The Go

Emma Goldman has been deported
from the United States, from Russia,
and from Sweden. She seems to have
found out how to see the world with
out paying travelling expenses.
Fortunately no payroll envelopes
have to be filled by Ema Goldman on
Saturday night.
She can tell workingmen how to
overthrow Capitalists" and how to
raise hell generally, but she has not
yet been able to tell single workman
how to earn a dollar or support a
family.
She had a wonderful opportunity
to demonstrate her ability TO help the
workmen of Russia where her doctrine
has put Capitalism" completely out
of business and left leaders like
Goldman in control.
But she fell down completely and
got out of Russia as soon as she
could. Size didn't care to stay in a
country where the carrying out of her
doctrine had caused starvation among

10000 Aliens A Month

During the first nine months of the
present fiscal year the net increase
of our population through immigra-

of the effectiveness of the Republican
