nearer eliminating static interference
than any other form known.
Like any of the long-wire type of
antenna, it receives best only from
those directions toward which it
points. BY absorbing energy from
the wire at one end. the wire can be
put into such condition as to receive
from one direction only. This is &C.
complished by the use Of a resistance
and an earth connection.
When but one wave length long,
the wire is quite directional in its
characteristics. When two wave
lengths long. it is decidedly more

headache is to look for the real source
and then remedy the ailment, which
may be merely constipation or indi-
gestion or lack of exercise and venti-
lation. In the first case, take a purge,
give the stomach a rest for a meal
or two; then go slow on the quantity
of food eaten. If it's lack of exercise
and fresh air, take a walk.
There are a dozen or so other all
ments that may cause headache. Often
it's difficult to locate the exact source
of trouble.
Often the immediate cause of a
headache is over-stimu1ation of the
heart, an accompaniment of a num-
Der Of organic disturbances, resulting
in abnormally high blood pressure
within the brain.
The majority of headache remedies
contain powerful heart depressants,
which bring only temporary relief
and leave the heart in moro dan
gerous state than before. There Is
always danger in drugs sufficiently
strong to depress the heart.
A competent physician usually can
tell by few questions just what the
cause is.

PARIS, Aug. 5.--To date, the Amer
lean tourist, in the guise of the golden
egg-laying goose, has been a distinct
disappointment to France in general
and Paris in particular.
From all sides, from restaurant and
hotel proprietors, from cabaret touts
and promoters of other resorts of SINH
lar nature. the cry goes up that '"e
1922 vintage of American tourists is
pretty thin, and to the credit of our
acknowledges be it said that the
present shoals Of touring fish now
beating on the Gallo shores contain
very few suckers.
The golden days Of the visits of the
war millionaires. the plutocratic pill
grims of 1919, 1920 and 1921, are now
well over. The wealthy people now
visiting the French capital are those
who had the Paris habit before 1914.
They know where to go, what to do
and how to do it on a reasonable out
lay. The rest OF the present crop OF
tourists seems to be composed Of nice,

OL DEST MILITARY
UNIT IN SERVICE
132 YEARS YOUNG
Coast Guard Has Record Un-
exampIed~in Either Mill
tary Branch.
BIZ FRANK j. TAYLOR,
Times STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Aug. 7.-America's
Oldest, hardest working and most
peaceful military unit celebrated its
132nd birthday.
The foregoing title belongs to the
U. S. Coast Guard.
George Washington, when the first
Continental Congress met, asked it
to authorize formation of a maritime
organization which could defend the
coasts of the new republic.
Ten Sailing Frigates
Congress, sitting in New York,
passed an act establishing the Coast
Guard. Ten sailing frigates were au-
thorized.
Not a day has passed in the last
$50 years but that this Coast Guard,
created by Washington, has been on
the job. preventing smuggling, saw
ing lives. and protecting the coast
line.
The organization is still a sepa-
rate unit. It operates under the
Treasury Department. independent Of
the Navy.
Figure in Every War
Coast Guard vessels have figured in
every war the United States has en-
tered.
Every August the Coast Guard
fleets gather at central strategic points
along the American coasts for ma
neuvers and stunts.

To be sure, there are a few col

The invasion of American literary

steer them to non-gouging hotels and

much work on hand to be naughty.
Once they hit a breathing spell and
went forth to disport themselves. they

Father of Fl Children ADVOCATES
Doctrine That Labor Makes Men

McCLOUD. Cal. Aug. 7-"Most
folks fail in raising children because
they don't make EN- work hard
enough"
And, as father of twenty-one chill
dren, Nicholas SingIey, IS, is well
qualified to speak ON the subject.
One of California's champion
fathers, Singley holds that each house
hold should have a minimum of six
youngsters. Singley's first wife pre-
scented him with ten and his second
with eleven children.
81 don't advocate that every family
should attempt twenty-one," he says.
Don't worry, I've had my little
troubles. But not one of my kids was
ever IN any trouble more serious than
the usual childish pranks."
What's his theory?
well, I reared them just the way
was reared-to work. When you've
got them doing that you've got them
out Of mischief, you're training them
toward the future and you're help
ing out the family income.
I've never been an advocate Of
whipping the kids.
81 believe in schooling. but keep
them working and busy when not in
school. 1t produced men and pio-
neers, wives and ladies'"
Singley was an early day pioneer
and Indian fighter; a firm believer
that hard work and long life go hand
in hand.
MY father lived to be 107," he re-
calls. And I expect to do as well.

INTRODUCES ACT
To REFUND FINES
UNDER LEvERLAW
Senator EIkins Presents Plan
for Reimbursing Sales
Losses During War.
LovETT ENDORSES BILL
Daugherty's Assistant Thinks
Government Might Refuse
Defense of Cases.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Aug. Ire.
tail merchants who had fines squeezed
out of them by the operation OF the
invalid Lever act may get their money
back again.
With the act declared in violation
of fundamental rights of citizenship,
guaranteed under the Constitution of
the United States in decision made
by the Supreme Court more than a
year ago, governmental gears at last
have been reversed through the in
PRODUCTION of bill by Senator Elkins.
If enough gap is supplied, it is now
freely predicted that the retailers,
many of whom were forced into bank
ruptcy by the Illegal penalty, will get
their money back. some day.
One reassuring angle of the situa-
ton is the fact that though the Su-
preme Court has quite plainly and
definitely ruled the exaction of these
fines as illegal, the Department of
Justice now doubts very much if the
Government could defend itself against
actions to recover these fines.
Considered Seriously
In the eighteen months which have
elapsed since the Lever act was ruled
unconstitutional. the Department of
Justice has had time to consider it all
very seriously. And * has actually
done so, according to former Judge
Robert H. Lovett, now an assistant
of Attorney General Daugherty.
T f.
to let it appear" that the Depart
ment of Justice believes that fines
ought to be returned. II am of the
opinion" he says, in reply to an in.
quiry from Senator Capper, that 1t
would appear to be to thetbe inter
est of the Government to have the
Congress grant the relief as proposed
in the bill. and I, therefore, recon-
mend that this bill receive the ia
vorable consideration of your com.
mittee."
Lovett Replies
In this same reply Judge Lovett
said:
THE Department OF Justice has
given very careful consideration to
the legal questions involved in this
class of litigation, and it is very
questionable whether the Government
will be able to interpose successful
defenses to these suits"
Whether the retailers get their
money back through the simple pro-
cess Of establishing their claims. or
by further litigation, is not yet def
nitely known, but Judge Lovett said;
Il further beg to advise that even
if the Government should prevail in
these cases the time and labor of
the court and counsel would be taken
up In the numerous trials, and the
expenses Of the Government in de.
Tending these cases would thereby be
considerably increased.
So it appears likely that the re-
tailers may incidentally be permitted
to save expenses in the same manner.

NEW YORK. Aug. 7.-"Quack, the
Cop" has quit. Restless after twenty
six years of monotonous buffeting by
the ever-surging crime waves Of the
great city, Lieut.. George T. Quacken-
boss thinks he'll write poetry for a
while and maybe daddle in wireless.
Since that day forty-five years ago,
when he ran away from the learned
atmosphere of his professional
fathers home in Chicago. Quacken-
boss has been a daddler.
He speaks. reads and writes Span
ish French, Mexican, Italian. Portu-
guese and four Indian dialects with
their symbolic written characters. He
is a physician a telegrapher. a ca
pable instructor in commercial law,
mathematics and the mute language;
he is a proficient scholar in Latin and
Greek and has written poems.
Joins Police Force
Quackenboss was practicing medi-
cine, having been graduated a few
years before from New York Univer-
sity, when Theodore Roosevelt ap-
pealed for white collar men to join the
police force. He saw T. R. at once
and was made a patrolman. Officials
of the department tried to ride him
out" of the force by assigning him to
hells kitchen at night-a long beat
in a tough neighborhood, so arranged
that he had to report to a sergeant
thrice as many times as the other
cops.
1t was some time before Quacken-
boss by his conduct convinced his as
sociates that he was just a cop like
themselves. In thirteen years he be-
came a sergeant and in eighteen
years, a lieutenant.
Thrills Begin Early
The father of Quackenboss was a
professor Of Greek at the University

WASHINGTON, Aug. Its just
one political disaster after another for
the Republican Old Guard these days.
Until Aug. primaries they were in
panic. Now they're in q rout.
The decisive beating Congressman
Philip Campbell got in the Third Kan
sas district Republican primaries is
just as hard a jolt for the Old Guard
as the defeats Of Senator New in In
diana, Senator McCumber Of North
Dakota and the smashing Of the
Pennsylvania machine by Clifford Pin
chot.
Campbell's downfall is attributed to
too close attention to Old Guard ad-
vice instead of to public sentiment.
Moves Not Popular
AS chairman of the all-powerful
Rules Committee of the House he
made a number Of moves, none Of
which were calculated to enhance his
popularity with his Kansas constit
uents.
He brought in the gag rule that
made it impossible to amend the tariff
bill before it went to the Senate.

incomes for the soldiers bonus.
He announced he would favor rule
for ship subsidy if demanded by
President Harding.
He blocked the joint demand of Rep
resentative Woodruff Of Michigan and
Johnson Of South Dakota for House
investigation Of the delays Of the
Department Of Justice in proceeding
against war grafters.
Long Service Ends
Campbell now passes from the pic
ture after nearly twenty years Of
faithful service to the Old Guard.

EXCL US|ON CASE
At ELLIS ISLAND.
Anglers CAPITAL
Senator Willis Ayers Carton
Ruling Is Absurd and Dis
respectful.
CLAIM HAIR SPLITTING
Officials Express Indignation
Over Arbitrary Decisions
Of Bureau.
By HARRY B. HUNT

By NEA SerUfce
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.--Official
Washington is aroused over the pitt
full case of Mrs. remi Carton, Belgian
woman who, with her 8-year-old son,
was forced by official red tape at
Ellis Island to make an extra 5000
mile round trip to Europe in order
TO gain entry to the United States
under new quota.
Indignation over the Carton case
is as intense among supporters of
the quota" immigration law as it is
among opponents of the measure.
Willis Scores Act
Senator Frank B. Willis of Ohio,
a mbember Of the Senate Committee
on immigration and supporter Of
the quota" measure, condemned the
Carton ruling in the strongest Ian
guage.
Absolutely absurd" Willis said
1T is such arbitrary rulings as this
that create, if not actual disrespect
for law, at least. an attitude closely
bordering on it.
II should say that what was need
ed in this case and what seems to
have been wholly lacking in it was
just a little bit OF common horse
sense. 1t wouldn't have taken very
much.
LAS a member of the Senate Com
mittee on immigration. I did "a great
deal to help enactment of the pres
ent law and had not a little to do
with getting it through I want to
see its spirit enforced to the fullest
degree.
But do not want to see triftng
technicalities applied in cases such
as this-such absurd technicalities
weaken regard for the law.
ITO force this mother and child to
make a round trip to Europe in or
der TO enter under a new quota when
that quota actually was open at the
time OF the ruling. is positively silly"
Mrs. Carton. whose husband has
declared his intention of becoming a
United States citizen. returned 20 Bel
GUM from America several months
ago to bring back their son. She
was told before sailing that there
would be no difficulty about her re-
admission if she returned within six
months
On their arrival at Ellis Island,
however. immigration authorities de.
clared that because the Belgian quota
II immigrants for the fiscal year 1922
had been exhausted and because they
arrived before the fiscal year 1928
admitted, but would have to go back
to Europe and come again.
Final Ruling Delayed
Mrs. Carton would have had no
difficulty in returning if she had come
back alone" it was explained at the
office Of Commissioner General Hus-
band. in discussing the basis for the
apparently hair-splitting decision.
She was entitled to return within
six months and be admitted.
But she returned as the custodian
of a person who never had been ad-
mitted to the country and who could
not be admitted under the 1922 quota
which was the year of his arrival"
TOO bad, but law is law and must
be enforced" is the attitude Of in
spectors and others connected with
the immigration Bureau.
Commissioner General Husband is
out Of the city and his opinion Of
the ruling in the Carton case could
not be obtained.
