EDISON QUESTIONABLE
LEADS TO A ROMANCE

New York, Jan. 31.-When
Thomas A. Edison formulated his
famous and much abused ques-
tionnaire last spring he had no
idea that the only man who would
answer it correctly would win his
way into the Edison family, but
such is the case. Samuel A. Hal
sey, of Newark, NJ. j., will tonight
marry Miss Charlotte W. Haw-
kins, sister-in-law of Charles Ed

the spring of last year. Instead
of ridicuIing it, he answered it
listing correct answers to every
quesion-and was given an "A'
grade by the inventor himself. He
was given job juggling figures in
the Edison factories, but he didn't
stay at it long. In his advance he
reached the post of chief of the
personnel :aff, and met Miss
Hawkins, who was doing welfare
work in the plant.

SCHWAB WANTS TARIFF
BASED ON AMERICAN CASH

Washington, Jan. 3.--No tariff bill
will build foundation for prosper
ity unless it provides and American
valuation basis to remedy the hole in
our present laws which the fluctua-
tions in foreign exchange have torn
m it," Charles NJ Schwab Of New
York declared IN letter read today
before the tariff convention here of
the National Association of Manufac-
turers, by ]. E. Edgerton, president
of the association.
To-day we are confronted with q
basic weakness in our tariff policy
which is affecting injuriouslv the
whole fabric of the nation Mr..
Schwab said. Fluctuations in for.
eign exchange are playing havoc with
wages, prices and orders. Because
our present tariff laws were framed
at a Tins when foreign monies were
normal they are today actually in
operative as far as protecting labor
and industry or yielding revenue are
concerned.
Congress is struggling TO enact a
tariff bill which will enable us as o
people and a nation, to work for our

no tariff will build a foundation for
prosperity. which does not remedy
the hoe in our present laws which
the fluctuations in foreign exchange
have torn in it
eve have American standards in
everything but our tariff. Today. in
my opinion, the hour has come when
we should put American standards in
our tariff laws. The simple and eff
fective way of doing this is by subst'-
tuting American standards Of value
for the present archaic standards of
foreign values"

Charge That British Are
Mixing Wine and Pork
Fat In Certain Foods
Contrary To the Relig-
ious Convictions of the
Mchammedans

London, Jan. 31.--Today having
been fixed as the day of the "civil dis
obedience campaign in India, civil
London newspapers discussed the out
look which they regarded with consld
cradle anxiety.
Tha pan laid down by M. X. Gandhi
-non-cooperationist leader, to try the
disobedience experiment first in the
two areas of Bardoli and Ananand
seems from various reports little
likely to be obs ;rved indications be-
ing that the scheme will be put into
operation throughout a much wider
area. The recent movement in the
Guntur district is cited in support 0!
this supposition.
Reports appear almost daily in tn
London press showing that the nom
cooperation propaganda is becoming
intensified in the rural areas where
the peasantry is eiated at the pros
rect hsld out by Gandhis agents that
they shall be exempt from taxation.
There are also indications of serious
unrest in some provinces. especially
at Barabanki and Hardoi, in Northern
Oudh, where it is reported agitators
ere exciting the people with asser-
t1ons similar to those which mater
tally aided the cause of the Indian
mutiny. Among these are statements
that the British are mixing wines
with the medicines issued at the pull.
lie despensaries, and are using pork
fat in certain manufactures. (Both
pork and wine are anathema to Mo-
hammedans).
Similar stories affecting the reli-
gious prejudices of the Hindues are
circulating with the purpose of influ-
encing that section of the populace.
Official dispatches admit tbs Sc
-riousness of the situation. pointing
out that 'the mass of inflammable
material is so great that possibility
of widespread disturbances in the
near future cannot be ignored
The position for the moment is de-
scribed by a writer in today's Morn
ing Telegraph as one of expectancy
and preparation on the part of both
the authorities and the extremists"

W. Crabtree, secretary of the National Education
Association brought out facts regarding illittracy
in the United States which emphasize the need for
more and better public schools, and which endorse
the results Of the election in Oregon in which new
school laws passed, compelling attendance in
State public schools.

of illiteracy of the leading enlightened nations of
the world, +" said DR.. Crabtree eff you multiply
Germany's percentage of illiteracy by 80 you will
have the figures showing the percentage of literacy
in the United States Improvement and increase in
the number of country schools is the first step nee
