REGULAR ARMY REDUCED
And Many Non Commissioned Officers
Will Lose Their Ratings


Prior to January 1st, 1928, sixteen
hundred non-commissioned officers of
the regular army will be reduced to
the grade of private. Many of these
are men who have, through their own
efforts and in years of service, reach
ed their present grades. After these
many years of faithful service the ma
tional defense act of 1920 will, unless
amended, reduce non-commissioned
officers to ranks hid by them many
years ago.
A large percentage of those reduced
are now connected with the National
Guard or acting as instructors in
reserve officers training units in high
schools and colleges throughout the
United States.
These men are entitled to their
present rank and are justly entitled
to the increased pay of this rank. I'm
less the national defense act of 1920
is amended it will mean that these
cold timers" will be reduced to the
ranks. Of course this demotion will
carry with it such a loss of pay and
prestige as to make it impossible fol-
many of them to continue on the
work as now planned
1t is understood that the secretary
of war will request Congress to amend
the national defense act. These mer
can only retain their ratings by such
legislation.

TROL

New York, Nov, 9.-(Associated
Press) s).-Continue republican control
of Congress but with the Senate ma
jority cut in half and the House ma
jority of 100 slashed to scant hand
full, appeared today as the net result

votes necessary to control the next
House. With seven congressional dis
tricts in four states. Kansas, North
Dakota, Washington and West Vir-
ginia, unreported at z a. m. today the
roll in the next House stood: Repub-
licans, 220; democrats, 205; socialist,
i; farmer-labor, 1; independent, l..
In returns to date seventy-six places
now held by republicans had been
captured without single counter
balancing democratic loss.

SATURDAY, MARCH u, 1872

W7HEN you consider the accomplish
w ments of the Armaments con-
ference, remember one thing-that its
achievements are not to be measured
by reductions in military expenditures
only. Prior to the conference, all the
nations were in competition for greater
navies and armies. Our annual appro-
priations for military purposes were on
the increase, and but for the confer
ence, they would have continued to in
crease. The most that anyone hoped to
accomplish at the conference was a
check of the increase. In fact, the con-
ference was officially referred to as q
conference on Limitation of arma-
ments." But under the Hughes pro-
posals, much more was accomplished
than anyone thought possible. There
was not only a checking of increases
but ar agreement for decreases. There
fore, when you figure up the saving,
you may properly add to the reduced
military appropriations the sum that
certainly would have been appropriated
in excess of previous expenditures if
the old practice of keen competition
had been kept up.

A SSERTING that some public school
"a histories have taught erroneous
economic doctrines, an official of the
American Federation of Labor declares
that it is the purpose of the Federation
to undertake constructive campaign
to bring the true economic tendencies
and principles to those attending our
educational institutions" This spokes-
man for the Federation manifestly fails
to understand the real criticism of many
histories now in use. 1t is not the
proper purpose of history to teach
economics. Many of our histories do
teach free trade. socialism, and discons
tent, and they are criticized for that
reason. But it would be just as great
an error to have our histories teach
protection or conduct a propaganda
against socialism. The point is that a
history is no place to undertake to teach
economics. A history is intended to be
a record of events, not an exposition of
the economic theories of the author.

ICE BY ELECTRIC PROCESS
Method, Long Tried Out In Hotels,
Restaurants, and Ships, Soon
to Be Universal

Now that iceless refrigeration has
Is suitable for the home, it Is safe
To predict that it will not be long be-
fore it will be within the reach of
even those of very modest pocket
books, and all need of bothering with
the iceman, with his pick and tongs,
will be gone.
The ice used ON our tables has long
been the product Of electric refrgera-
tion, although the mechanism was not
located ip our own homes, says the
Philadelphia North American. Hotels,
restaurants and passenger boats have
used the electric process because 1t Is
efficient, sanitary and convenient.
Electricity does not Immediately and
directly produce the freezing temper
ature, but merely provides the motive
power to condense certain chemicals
which are the actual refrigerants. In
chemicals vaporize or boil" and alb
sOrb the heat from the surrounding
air. The machinery by which con-
densation and vapOrization is pro
duced was formerly large and ex-
pensive, and it has taken continu-
GUS experimentation to reduce 1t to a
point where it Is practical for house
hold use.
The process has been similar to the
transition Of locomotive power from
the large and clumsy railroad steam
engine to the smaller automobiles, with
their comparatively simple mechanism.
The complex machinery had to be re-
fined to point where 1t could be
produced cheaply and operate on a
small scale. Electric refrigeration has
now almost reached the jitney class.
1t will soon be considered essential
In all our kitchens.

short-hared women and long haired

able to agree with anyone else, they
