SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 4.-With
the election two weeks away, Califor-
MIA today was being covered to its
farthcst recesses by politicians cam
paigning for everything from constable
to governor and United States senate.
Mixed with them were the various
committees and organizations support
ing unitive measures and constitution
al amendments, making politics the
chief business of the state from now
until election.
Senator Hiram w. johnson is tour
ing the San Joaquin Valley; Friend w.
Richardson, Republican candidate for
governor, is, working through the
Northern coast counties; Thomas Lee
Woolwine, Richardson IS Democratic op-
ponent, is in Southern California, and
William j. Pearson, Democratic candi-
date for the senate, devoted his atten-

Senator Johnson spoke last night at
a dinner at Modesto and today his
schedule called for speeches at Fresno
at noon and Coalings tonight
Richardson spoke at Santa Rosa last

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The resig-
nation from the Supreme Court of
Justice Day probably will give Ten
nessee a republican United States sen
eator.
In an effort to clinch the hold the
G.. o. p. got in that state in 1920, the
it is understood here, to appoint SEN
ator Shields as Justice Days sue
cessor on the banch and to name
Newell Sanders, wealthy republican
plow maker, to Shields senaotrial seat.
Sanders is candidate this year for
the full full six year term against SEN
ator Kenneth Mcclellan. Indications
are that he has little show of defeat
ing McKellar. -
Justice Day is soon to resign to de-
vote all his time to the work Of the
commission settling American claims
against Germany.
Senator Shields has been the favor
ed candidate for the place ever since
quit. So far as appeared here, there
is only one reason Shields might not
be named. He is past the 60-year age
limit for supreme court judges, but
that age limit has never been rigid
barrier. 1t was waived in the ease
OF Chief Justice Taft and others.
Attorney General Daugherty and
President Harding both favor Shields >
appointment and unless some obstacle
other than the senator s age appears,
he probably will be appointed.
If Sanders is appointed to the SEN
ate he will hold the seat for two years,
when regular election will be held
to fill the place.

odds favored their candidate, but
Richardson IS friends professed amuse-
ment, saying that while odds might be
quota at most anything they had not
seen the color of any money.
"Paper bets are cheap one Rich
ardson man commented. This politici-
an also pointed ont that odds were
heavily against Richardson, on paper,
in the primaries, but they seemed to
mean nothing then.
Few took the betting seriously.
Republican headquarters here gave
out statement from Judge r. n.
Clarke of Los Angeles, vice chairman
of the Republican state central commit
tee, declaring there was absolutely
nothing to the stories of a division in
the ranks of the party in the south
land.
Much interest attached to the an
nouncement that Assistant Secretary
of Labor T.. J. Henning was en- route
to California to conduct speaking
tour in behalf of the Republican candi-
dates. Republican leaders declared he
would be the representative in the Cal
ifornia campaign of the Harding adj
ministration. His speaking schedule
has not been arranged. He will reach
here within short time, it was stated,
and details of his tour will then be
completed

ENGLAND TO REPAY WAR DEBT TO U.S.
Ambassador Harley
SaysWomenDon't
Haze Souls
United Press Leased Wire

LONDON, Oct. 2l.-"Have wo-
men souls?'
If they have souls there is no
evidence of it in the bible, accord
ing to the Interpretation of Am
bassador George Harvey, who adj
dressed the Authors Club here last
night.
Colonel Harvey, on the promise
that women have no souls, deduced
that the 10 commandments apply
only to men.
''The fact is, of COURSE he
said, "that women are not only
bound by, but freed at least by in
ference, of any obligation to OBJ
serve the requirements of our
fundamental religious law
He said there was no recognition
in the decalogue of possession of
souls by women.
The colonel suggested that the
Authors Club assume the response
bility of writing a list of 10 COM
mandments for women.
s'Tbe 10 commandments We're
written exclusively for men, the
Ambassador declared.
Harvey declared the rib theory
of the creation was a mere legend.
In bearing out his statement
that the 10 commandments did not
apply to femininity, Harvey said
they forebadC men to cOvet their
neighbors wives but did not for
bid women to covet their neigh
bors' husbands.
The blame for the onc-sided ap-
plication was placed on Moses,
whom Harvey described as Il hand
from women.
Harvey cited the fourth com
mandment as evidence that the
decalogue did not apply to women.
The commandment, he said, orders
all members of the household not
70 work on Sunday but the wife.
No mention is made of the wife,
he pointed out.
Harvey said he believed the omis-
sion of "Thy Wife, in the COM
mandment was deliberate because
someone had to work on the Sab
bath.
Even the commandment "Thou
shalt not steal" does not apply to
women, he said. "Thou' in the
commandment applies exclusively
to the head of the household, ac-
cording to his interpretation.
The speech of the ambassador
was. in his best vein as light
essayist.
NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-All men
are natural born polygamists.
That's why the commandments
forbid them to covet each others
wives, Captain Reba Crawford of
the Salvation Army declared to-
day.
Taking issue with Ambassador
Harvey, who seems to think wom-
en- are ignored in the decalogue be-
cause they have no souls, Captain
Crawford pointed out that the con
trary is true-women are NOT for
hidden to sin because they are ma
turally inclined to be good. Men
are the wicked ones.

NEXT MEETING HERE.

1t is estimated that 1000 people
from various parts of the range
and visitors from other states at
tended the annual Finnish Midsum-
mer celebration at Hibbing last
Sunday. A large number from
here drove over and participated in
the festivities. Congressman Oscar
]. Larson, State Auditor Chase,
Representative Hitchcock and other
noted speakers made addresses.
The Ely Finnish choir rendered
several fine selections which were
applauded with a vim and this
efficient musical body was forced
TO spond to an encore as was also
Mrs. o. Sarkipato who gave violin
selections accompanied by Mrs. V.
Koivumaki.
On the invitation extended by
John E. Porthan in behalf of Ely,
it was voted to hold the next fes.-
ival in this city. Many of those
present look back with pleasant
memories to the festival held here
several years ago and forward with
pleasant anticipation to the meet
ing next year.

heart trouble, bronchial diseases and
minor disabilities. These men, how
ever, are not permitted to select
courses of training in which their
disabilities will be a handicap or in
terfere in any way. Those persons
who have tuberculosis are not per-
mitted to take up vocational train
ing until the tuberculosis is arress-
ed or inactive. The disabilities of
the majority of the vocational stud
ents are not noticeable and in no
way prevent them from successfully
carrying on and competing with the
civilian workers on an equal basis.
Employers who wish to employ
these eX-service men who have
been trained and whose ability to
successfully carry on in vocation
has been assured by the training
given should correspond with the
above address, state the type of
personnel required, when the posi-
ton is available and the place of
employment.

ELY TAKES TWO
FINE GAMES.
OUR BALL BOYS TRIM UP IN
TERNATIONAL FALLS TWICE
NEATLY.

The border city boys to our
north were easy meat for the Ely
base ball team in, both Saturday
and Sunday games. A fair crowd
witnessed Saturdays game but a
large crowd was present on Sunday.
Tulin, the new man on the slab for
Ely in Saturdays game, struck out
IL men while his opposition mound
artist only had to his credit.
Gianotti, who twirled Sundays
game, showed old time speed and
had ten dead ones to his credit
while Prodinski, Sundays twirler
for international Falls placed three
of the Ely batters on his list.
Six home runs featured the two
games. Lambert with his little
stick slapped out three for Ely,
Hoef1er one and H. Chinn one
Bailey for the border city also took
kindly to Tulin's offerings on Sat-
urday and clouted one for a cir
cult. The boys say the Interna-
tional Falls people are royal enter
tainers and that they had a good
time while there.
Tulin, who joined the home team
last week is a former resident of
this city and the family will be re-
membered by many of the old
timers. He showed up well in The
initial games. The attached box
scores tell the story in detail:

CAN RUBBERS.

Old and badly worn rubbers are
the cause of more spoiled canned
stuff than any other one thing, say
home economics teachers of the
University of Minnesota. New rub
bers should always be used and
they should be subjected to certain
simple tests. A good can rubber re-
turns to it's original shape after l.
has been stretched out by pulling
as one may stretch rubber band.
Rubbers which crack when they are
folded double into the shape of a
half circle should never be used.
What may be otherwise first class
job of canning will often end in
failure if old or poor quality rub
bers are put to use.

HIRE A TRAINED MAN.

The United States Government
is conducting the largest trade and
industrial school in the world. 1t
has more than 13O,73S tsudents en-
rolled. This School is the re-
habilation division of the United
States Veterans Bureau through
which The Government is training
these 130,738 veterans in a trade,
industry, profession, business or in
agriculture.
The instruction in these vocations
is furnished in leading colleges,
technical schools, commercial schools
as well as in business establish
ments, shops and on farms. These
men are in training in every state
in the union and every large city
in the country. In all the large
industrial centers these men who
have received this intensive train
ing from the Government are avail
able for positions. Every vocation
is represented and any employer
who needs additional personnel will
be furnished such personnel from
his vicinity in short time by notify
ing the Veterans Bureau. Not
only is this personnel trained in
the best schools available but they
have also received practical in
struction on the job in industrial
establishments and in shops.
These men are not permitted to
terminate their training until the
Bureau is assured that they are
skilled workmen and capable of
carrying on in the vocation for
which they are trained, and meet
the requirements of the commercial,
industrial and agricultural world.
The courses of instruction vary in
length from one year to four years
while the average length of course
is two years.
The public has the impression
that the majority of men who are
receiving vocational training suffer
from amputations. This impression
is erroneous as statistics compiled by
the Veterans Bureau show that less
than two per cent of The men train
ing suffer from amputations. The
other $3.50 have disabilities such as
shrapnel and gun-shot wounds and
other disabilities which the civilian
population is subjec. to such as,
