The rain was coming in sheets. and we had to stop at three this afternoon. Since then I have had number of patients. A boy of eleven, who fell over a cliff and broke his arm, eleven months ago. is here with all his rela- itiveS, asking me to make the bones grow, together again. There was nc treatment for the arm when the acci- dent happened, for the native doctors know nothing of surgery They bound some vile-smelling connection to the arm with bamboo splints and put an- other plaster of the same mixture CI the back, "to draw the bone up."

Bank Deposits In
 State On Increase

Little Rock, June 9.-Bank de- Dosits in Arkansas during the past month showed an increase of $5.- 0O0,000 over the previous month, aC- cording to a report compiled by Charles Mckee, state bank commits sioner, which shows that there was S1O4, 100000 on deposit in the vari- ous institutions of the state on May I5.
 Mir. McKee's report showed that their total resources amounted to $145, 100000. Loans and discounts totaled $101, 100000; cash and sight exchange, $25. 5.00O,O0o; bills payable and rediscounts, 2,000,000.
 The increase in cash and sighl exchange since March 10, according to the report, was $1,000,0 ,000, while there was a decrease during this period in bills payable and redis- counts of $S,O00,000.
 Mir. Mckee calls attention to the fact that five banks which were closed during the year 1921 have been reopened, and that these in stitutions have paid 100 per cent to their depositors and have secured other creditors.
 Of 19 banks liquidated by the State Banking Department since it's creation, nine have paid 100 per cent to depositors, Mr. Mckee said.

Ease and Comfort in Java.

Living in Java is so inexpensive that a European resident in moderate cir cumstances may keep many servants while the Mohammedan residents whose religion allows them four wives are usually able to support the full number Of late, however, the II. C. L., penetrating in degree even to Java, has forced them somewhat to reduce their families. In Java if a nobleman marries beneath him he does not bother to go to the ceremony, but very kindly sends his sword or his hat to represent him.

RELATIONSHIP OF PRESIDENT AND DAUCHERTY
Attitude of Nation Toward the Attorney General Has Caused Much Embarrass- ment at Capital

Washington. June 9.-Presdent Harding's plight resulting from the expose of Attorney General Daugh- erty recalls the famous toast to the ladies:
 We cant get along without them and we can't get along with them.
 From the viewpoint of orthodox party men. it is inconceivable that President Harding will request MT. Daugherty to retire. It was Daugh- erty who made President Harding what he is today, and is generally : believed here that the President will stick to him regardless of conse- quences, through that mistaken sense of loyalty conspicuous in weak men and even in inexperienced men of greater strength of character.
 On the other hand. to astute poli- ticians as well as to the average citl- zen it is inconceivable that Presi- dent would retain as a member of his Cabinet a person under such varie- ty of attacks as the present Attorney General and retain his own self re- spect or show decent respect to public opinion.
 Many of the most important pa pers of the country, Republican and Indepent, as well as Democratic, are demanding Attorney General Daugh- erty's resignation. and these are de- mands which apparently are giving the administration some concern, as witness the weekend cruise of the Mayflower. on which the President had as his guests Attorney General Daugherty. Secretary of War Weeks. eistant Warwick of the administra- tion. Chairman Larker of the Ship ping Board. the best advertising agent that ever occupied that posi- tion. It is understood that the Daugherty case was discussed, and the impression given out after the iSSuAA tO WI IS that tuS President will stand by Attorney General Daug gherty.
 If this impression is correct it is only another illustration of the close political and personal bond of friendship between the President and MT. Daugherty. They have been lifelong associates, as close as Da- vid and Jonathan. Mckinley and Mark Hanna or the Siamese Twins, lacking the physical membrane. And Attorney General Daugherty is the dominating spirit of the Harding administration. President Harding knew exactly what kind of man he was putting in the Attorney Generals office. Daugherty was his personal appointee, and President Harding must bear in large mea- sure the responsibility of MT. Dau- gherty's acts. although his party must share the responsibility, for it was a Republican Senate which con firmed him against nationwide protest.

SUPREME COURT AND SOL0NS ARE. LABOR TARGETS.
Gompers Says Coronado De- cision Nullifies Strike Rights Will Request Adoption New Laws

| Cincinnati O.. June $%}O--Prote5lS of organized labor, as voiced here yesterday at preliminaries for the annual convention next week of the American Federation of Labor. Centered against the supreme court, the congress and state legislatures in general.
 Samuel Gompers. president of the federation, in addressing club of business men, interpreted the su- premo court decision in the Corondo coal case as a negation of the right to strike, and declared that organ ized labor would appeal to congress for new legislation setting aside the decision.
 In criticizing the supreme court, MT. Gompers said that he expected i to be taken strictly to account for his utterances, adding that 'I do not run away from fight
 But it has come to a pretty case. he continued, "when an American citizen can no longer discuss and criticize the decision of the disposed, lean criticize even the president of the United States. or the United States Senate CT the congress. Pray, of what flesh are the members of the supreme court that they are above criticism beyond that of the president of the United States?"
 Plan To Defeat Fees
 Delegates to the meeting of the federation, by unanimous action as sailed congress and state legisla- lures as enemies of labor and de- clared for labor's active participa ticn in the fall campaigns in an eff fort to elect it's friends, regardless of their politics.
 Two other departments also con tinued their meetings, the dele gates to the union label department discussing plans for furthering sales of products bearing the union label and the delegates to the build ing trades department splitting up into committees to lay plans for conducting their work today.
 In his speech, MT. Gompers said the Coronado decision made inter national unions, indorsing strikes liable for damages, and he asserted this meant the unions must with stand constant litigation or go out of business"
 "If you compel men and women regardless of conditions" he con- tinued, ''to work against their will you have re-ests blished slavery Some people are impressed now is the time to take advantage of the working pople. reduce wages and break up their organizations and under the open shop weaken or destroy the unions
 Tn this connection. he warned againct driving the bargain too hard" asserting that day of reckoning will come," and adding that the organized workers are the "gre7test stablizing force" in the country, Referring to rail union chiefs. he said they had prevented strikes. which he said had been desired by the union members gen erally, and he concluded with the expression of hope, for the time when employers and employees would solve thoir problems at the conference table.

ALBERT STUMP
ADDRESSES ROTARIAnS


Albert Stump OF Indianapolis, spoke
yesterday before the Rotary Club on
the Spirit of Cooperation. '@The
world abs advanced a long ways IN one
hundred years. said Mr.. stump and he
illustrated his meaning by examples
which were interesting and well to the
point. He told how one hundred years
ago. a church conference in Boston.
solemniy declared that bath tubs in
the house were the works OF the devil
At about the same time. a commission
er of patents in Washington resigned
because he said there was nothing
more for him to do. every useful in
genufty of man having been completed
Why there is scarcely a thing in
this ROOM" said Mr.. Stump, that has
its form. or touched in some way by
inventions since that time"
The statement OF these things now
sounds common place. They are or
the ordinary experience Of this gen
Grafton. But the achievement Of these
stupendous results is the most out
standing comment on the ever pres
spirit Of progress. Ut has been said
mat the sodlidlhg' Up OF pOSSlDllity OF
any service to the people of commun
ity depends upon the cooperation Of
three elements OF that community.
First: The inventors and scientists
who teach mankind the ways to make
these sources and resources Of nature
available to our needs Second The
investors who can pool their resources
together into d fund Of sufficient size
to bear up the service. Third, The Pub
lie who viii use the service provided
These elements must cooperate in the
community which would avail itself
of the service Of these great forces and
would use them most efficiently.
The inter-dependence OF ali Of these
elements is easily disclosed by a few
minutes analysis. Mr.. Stump Illus
trated this point BY referring to the
man who proposed to build his own

the fact that his working tools and

FURTHER REDUCTIONS
FOR CLUB GROUNDS

Possibility Of the sale of the Ham
mond Country Club grounds for resi-
donce purposes became remote last
night when at a special meeting of the
committee from the members with the
board Of directors OF the holding asso-
citation, the latter announced that
reduction OF s10ooe on the original
price had been agreed upon.
The association which owns the
grounds md CLUB house had orr riginally
asked 81 900 an acre for the SO acres
and $4,000 for the house, a total OF
$4,000 This offer had been made TO
the members some time ago and plans
had already been worked out for pur-
chasing the property.
When the owners came in last night
and made new offer without sohcita-
ton the members were highly pleased
and expressed the belief that the work
of financing the purchase would now
go forward rapidly.
The committee which has been car
rying on the negotiations with the di-
reetors of the association. were APP
pointed al mass meeting Of members
Of the club several weeks ago. 1t had
already been decided to charge each
member 1926 from which old members
would be permitted to deduct their or
ginal initiation fee.
over 100 members have already
signed contracts under the new rate.
The reduction of $4,000 in the price
Of the property means that the club
will need about so less names than had
first been counted upon.
