JUNK DEALERS
CHEATING u. S.
Many May Be Indicted for
Buying Up Stores at
Auction Sales

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O.-Charges
that junk dealers IN a number of
cities had conspired to cheat the
government in buying war surplus
supplies at auction sales will be laid
before grand e1uries as basis for in
dictments, it was learned at the de-
partment of justice today. The
charges relate TO purchase of differ
ent classes of materials left over
after the war and sold piecemeal in
auction sales over the past two years
The supplies are usually offered to
tho highest bidder.
Irregularities in the buying of cop
per provides one chapter of what
officials describe as "a scandal" !"
Large stocks Of surplus copper have
been parcelled out in various sales
to a comparatively small number Of
junk dealers. Copper thus offered
has been bought up quickly, but at
tar below n fair market price, ac-
cording to investigators
Junk dealers in many instances, II
Is alleged, have conspired together
SO as 20 remove the element of COM
petition in auction and leave to, a
single dealer the option OF buying
In materials at his own price. The
price SO paid allowed the junk deal
ef to sell to manufacturers or re-
finers at an enormous profit
Junk dealers, by so manipulating
the bidding mt sales have deprived
the government of many millions of
dollars

This Is what Robert L. Brooke.

Both railroads are controlled BY
Thomas y. Slick Of Clarion, Pa, who
has been very active in oklahoma.

fields, and who really spends more
time in oklahoma than he does in
his home state.
The heavy freight traffic. over
the O. s. w prompted officials of
that line to install a gasoline motor
car late this summer and II now
meets all Frisco trains at Bristow
and runs three times n day each
way to Slick and once a day ia
Nuyaka. Eventually the O. :. w,
tracks will he extended on to Henry

The five steam locomotives are
used exclusively in hauling casing,
tanks and other material to ana
from gasoline plants, reflneries and
wells along the railroad.
The Miami Mineral Belt supplies
a tremendous volume OF lead and

~B0BBED HAIR

Attention has been called to the fact
that at several girls school COM
IN Pennsylvania this year,
more than half OF the graduates had
their hair "bobbed.' This shows that
the custom is bound to prevail, de-
spite the storm of protest that has
been raised against It In many in
stances. this protest assumed the form
of strict regulations In place of bust
ness prohibiting the employment
young women who 'bobbed" their hair.
II is somewhat surprising there
should be such a pronounced objac-
ton to young women shortening their
profuse growth of hair in this man
ner. To many persons there. is moth
ing offensive in the appearance of
shortened locks on wcmen's heads.
and certainly the practice should
promote the comfort and convenience
of those who indulge in it. 1t no
doubt Is true that ''woman's chief
glory is her hair" but that does not
prevent the adornment becoming cum
bersome, and even annoying. by rea-
son Of undue luxuriance.
AT any rate, the women VIII do as
they please in matters Of dress, and
there is no use in mere man protest
ing. And why should we. except in
respect of such an absolute Stiffness
as unlaced enthusiastically and RI
diculous-and undue indulgence ir
short skirts, on the ground OF moral
| ity. Few indeed are the reasonable
exceptions to the rule that woman''
dress is a matter that concerns hei
alone, and is no concern Of the men.

PHILIPPINE INDEPENDENCE.

try. are meeting with no encourage

ing in this direction Will he done. by
reason of the time-worn and inconsist-
ent plea. "the Ffipinos are not yet
fitted for self-government." Even
President Harding has told them they
must wait.
II is more than a score OF years
since we paid Spain twenty million
dollars for these faraway islands. as
compensation for beating her in war
and meanwhile many changes nave
occurred there. At the outset 1t was
declared by Admiral Dewey, who had
au,nIe OPPORTUNITIES for observation
that in his opinion the people of the
Philippines were better fitted for SELF
government than were the people OF
Cuba. Yet Cuba was given It's own
government, while the Filipinos de-
spite their advancement and their
patriotic desires, are treated as
subject people TO this day.
1t is time for Congress 10 at leas'

PAY OF MEN TEACHERS.

Although the State Superintendent
of Education reports an increase In the
number of men applying for positions
as teachers, he makes IL plain that
there Is no immediate possibility of
securing as many trained men as the
State department needs; and the situ-
alton In the city Is identical with that
In the counties. State Superintend-
ent Cook places the blame for It, with
some Justice. upon the low salaries
which are paid in the public schools.
Low salaries are. indeed. enough to
deter young man who Ia trying to
map out for himself n course of life
which will provide him with sufficient
funds to live decently and In all proba-
bilty to marry and raise n family Of
average size. But another factor--.to
which after all the low salaries are in
large part due-is the apparently low
regard in which the public holds the
| profession of teaching. A male teach
er. one gathers. is supposed by many
to have less initiative and less rca
ability than his friends In business.
Such an assumption Is essentially

FRANCE AND PREPARATIONS.

Suppose the United States had been

Suppose Americans were now hearing
on all sides chat they should not be

ductive part of the country, caused
the death of more than a million and
half OF our best young men and the
humiliation Of several hundred thou

Not even the advocates OF a mild
peace with a minimum OF reparation
can argue that If Germany had been
the victor she would have listened fer
a moment to any plea by the van
quished that they We're unable to meet

have been as hard and relentless as
she was during the war on the peo-
pies in the territory that her armies
occupied in Belgium and France. She
would have rejected insolently every
request for relief or modification OF
the indemnity that she imposed.
The Allies. including France, have
treated Germany with more forbear-
ance and greater generosity than she
would have shown toward them. i

THE SHIPS PROBLEM.

As one OF the results of our partici-
patton IN the World War, our govern
ment now finds itself the owner of
many merchant ships. Construction
was pushed with marvellous rapidity
when the demand was for more ships
to transport our fighting men and war
munitions abroad. and the sudden
ending of the war left a large number
OF vessels on hand for which there is
no use. This is one of the reasons
advanced In favor Of the ship sub
sidy--to make business profitable
for these ships in lines of commerce.
But even a subsidy will not convert
these ships into an element of profit
They are now a heavy expense
whether maintained in idleness or pu,
into operation In a struggle for busi-
ness. The best plan for the govern
n1ent would be to dispose Of them or
the best possible terms. 1t might b,
better TO give them away, If they
cannot be sold 1t Is an expense L
maintain them. and II will be an ad.

one, to attempt TO sustain them by
subsidies, or even by selling intoxi
