Lois Watson with a pure bred
Holestin won second place. Lois
takes excellent care of her calf and
was complimented by the Judge on
the way. she had grown out her calf.
If she had had an opportunity to get
the animals coat in little better shape
she might have been the first prize
animal.
Audrey and Lois are entitled to
represent this community at the
state; fair but owing to the fact that
it would cost about $50 to express
the calves to and from the fair, they
probably will not 60, -,
Third prize was won by Leonard
Swenson, with his purebred Short

Measures Recommended By
Harding Will Be, Taken
Up Today =. !;
SEEK PERMANENT PEACE, :,
PLAN TO CURB STRIKES
Senate to Take Up Bonu. Bill
Before Considering the
Strike Situation
(By United PrAss)

Washington, Aug. 21-Steps are
being taken in congress today to put
through two of the measures recon-
mended by Harding for meeting the
strike situation. l..... d, =.
The house was prepared to pass
this week bill setting up federal
commission to investigate: every
phase of the coal mining industry
in the hope that such an inquiry will
lay the basis for permanent peace
in this strike beset industry. Such .
bill was to be introduced today by
Chairman Winslow of the Interstate
Commerce Committee and this
probably will be accepted.
Although the senate is taking q
rest until Wednesday on the long
tariff grind the foreign relations
committee met on the presidents
proposal for legislature giving the
federal court power to protect treaty
rights of aliens so that the federal
government will intervene and
punsih those Responsible for violence
such as the Herrin massacre.
The bill of Senator Kellogg in
corporates the presidents sugges-
ton and may be reported out late
today or tomorrow, but it is not
probable that the senate will act on
it until next week after the soldier
bonus has been disposed Of. =
Senator Borah, chairman of the
senate labor committee, said today
he would try to get the labor com
mittee together tomorrow TO take
up his bill arranging for fact find
ing agency in the coal industry.
Borah's bill has been introduced By
the white house after being in gen
eral, what the president desires in
the way Of legislation to secure re-
liable facts regarding how much
money coal operators arc making and
whether prices are reasonable.
Because the senate abs pledged
to take up the bonus Wednesday
actual steps toward working out the
legislative program asked by Hard
ing, will be left to the house this
week.

CONFERENCE CALLED To-
CONSIDER OIL AT SEA
Principal Maritime Nations of
World to Take Part in Dis &.
/ / cussion Of Menace
(By United Press)

Washington, August 21.-An, in
ternational conference of the prin-
cipal maritime nations of the world
will convene here this winter, at the
invitation of the United States, to
consider measures to be taken to rid
the world seacoasts of the menace to
fisheries, property and migratory
birds in the increasing pollution of
coastal waters by oil elected from
steamships. @&
President Harding, acting in COM
pliance with Legislation enacted re-
Gently by congress-, has authorized
Secretary of State Hughes to issue
invitations to, the conference, and in
interdepartmental committee repre-
senting the departments of state,
war, navy, commerce, interior and
agriculture, and the shipping board
is at work determining which nations
will be invited and formulating
agents for the conference. 49,
Representative, T. Fl Appleby, New
Jersey, in whose state are some of
the finest bathing beaches on the
Atlantic coast, notably that at At
lantic City, is the father Of the con-
ference. He introduced and secured
passage by congress OF bill author
izing President Harding to call it.
It is intended that the result of the
conference will be an International
agreement whereby each nation will
pledge itself to see that masters of
ships flying it's flag will exercise ev-
cry precaution in the election of Oil
from their ships, and in no case will
eject it where it will drift shore
wards. Because no nation has juris-
diction on the high seas beyond the
three-mile limit, an agreement is the
sole manner in which the object can
be attained, domestic legislation be-
ing imperative.

HOkus POkus

TIA! the nightied ghost of a val
n liant Klansman walked the
IL dim aisles of Brooklyn
church a week ago. He told the
secrets of the prison house of the
ku Klux mind. He unfolded a tale
whose lightest word must have har-
rOwed the soul and frozen the blood
of every wOrshiper.
List, list, o list to the awful
klucking: 1T is the purpose of the
ku Klux klan to revive the chiv-
airy of the people and to combat
those who would tear down our in
stltutlons. We are opposed
to the bootlegger, and we are or
ganized to maintain the supremacy
of the white race and to keep
Professionalism in the ascendancy.
A bit disappointing, the walking
of this ghost. He should have an
nounced their support of the law
of gravitation and their determina-
tion to defend the multiplication
table to the last digit. For they
still are legion who refuse to be-
lieve that twice two is four.
Which means that most of the
solemn prOnOuncements of the Klan
are matters of course to all decent
citizens. But when they talk about
keeping Professionalism in the
ascendancy,' we, in turn, must
protest and remind them of two
things:
First-The letter and the spirit
of the First Amendment to the
Federal Constitution which pre-
vents Congress from making laws
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof" This, of course,
enjoins tolerance and noninterfer-
ence upon not only the National
Legislature, but upon every Jealous
Protestant as well.
SecOnd-There is the historic in
cident which also bears it's lesson
to Overenthusiastic Americ ans.
When the zealots of his day came
to Frederick the Great with the
demand for the conversion or ex-
pulsion of all Jews that philosophic
monarch replied: MAKE all citi-
zens good Germans, but let them
choose any road to heaven that
they prefer"

And don't forget to have a cheek of brass;

tionary policies. 1t does not blame

THE BOSTON HERALD BLAMES
THE DIRECT PRIMARIES!
In the good, old days before the
direct primaries, when candidates
for the Senate were nominated by
the State Legislatures and for the
House by district convention, the
Herald declares that the Presidents
and party leaders were able to con-
troll their majorities in both Houses.
Undoubtedly, they were able to
control their majorities in both
Houses for reaetionary measures.
Then, indeed, the railroads and
the gas and electric light companies
and the manufacturers, lobbyists in
the State Legislatures and the party
bosses taking the crumbs from the
lobbyists fees were able to control
the selection of Senators and Repre-
sentatives. In those good, old days
before the direct primaries the
President could control his majority
in the Senate and in the House
when he was doing the bidding of
some reactionary interests.
The real government was the in
visible government, first the power
full lobbies and behind them the
bankers and the financial interests
generally.
What pity it is that the direct
primaries have compelled repre-
sentatives to represent their con-
stituents. In New York State the
Republican party under Governor
Miller abolished direct primaries.
Now all the Progressives in the
Republican party want direct pri-
maries restored to restore the public
confidence in the party.

ID. C.. Schools
"a Disgrdce''
CAPPER of Kansas


~ his colleagues in Congress for
such rank indifference to the public
schools of the District of Columbia
that the schools "are a disgrace to
the Nation and the Nations Capt.
tal."
Senator Capper places the re-
sponsibility squarely on the shoul-
ders of Congress, which he charges
has been generous to Washington
only in good intentions.
The people of the District thank
God there is a Capper in Congress-.
Doubtless there are other men in
that body who are just as sincere
friends as this able statesman from
Kansas, but they have not trans
lated this friendship into forceful
speech and action whenever condi-
tions demanded.
Senator Capper can expect no
votes in return for his support of
our schools. His speech was made,
therefore, in a spirit of true West
ern fairness, and in behalf of a
helpless American city whose peO-
pie constantly appeal to body re-
spOnsive only to the demands of
voting eitizenry.
Fortunately for the District pub
lie schools, Senator Capper's indict-
ment of Congress must be taken
into careful consideration in that
body. He speaks after long and
thoughtful study and investigation
of conditions here. He is chairman
of the joint Congressional commit
tee on local public schools, and he
has put in many months looking
into every phase of the matter.
He charges that Congress has
legislated for the schools by piece
meal for years, absolutely unmoved
by appeals that the schools should
be legislated for in systematic man.
ner covering a long period. This
charge is undeniable.
Besides the good Effects this
notable speech may have in Con-
ers and instructors throughout the
country to the Congressional neg
lect of the schools of the Nation s
Capital. The National Education
Association, with 100000 members,
at its last annual meeting in Bos-
ton went on record in favor of
strengthening and improving the
schools of Washington that they
might become models for the whole
country.
This may or may not mean any
thing TO Congress, yet if the school
teachers of any State or Congress
sional district feel that education in
the National Capital is being neg
lected by an Indifferent Congress,
their votes and influence may be-
come factors in future elections.
