THE SUCKER TAX"

According to Postmaster General
New. the American people are
swindled out of 00,000,0OO a year
by mail fraud schemes. The victims
he estimates, number not less than a
million, and their losses average
$1,000 apiece.
Here is what might be called a
"sucker tax" on the American people
heavier than any item in the costly
federal budget and greater than any
tax saving that can be effected by
federal economy of expenditure.
Would it not be worth the spending
of a few millions for the express pur,
pose of cutting down this shameful
waste? Suppose the departments OF
Justice at Washington and in the
various state capitals were given sui
ficient funds to prosecute adequately
the crooks thus preying on the IN
vesting public. Suppose adequate IN
spection were provided for the incor-
poration and operation of dubious
companies. And suppose additional
funds were available to educate the
public against investment in fraudu-
lent schemes.

Legislation designed to provide
better treatment for incapacitiated
veterans of the World War will be an
important item in the business of the
68th Congress as a result of the SEN
sational investigation of conditions
in the United States Veterans Bureau.
The Senate will receive the report of
its investigation committee about the
middle of December. The Committee
has been unable to unearth any evil
dence of actual graft, but it will have
some caustic remarks to make about
loose methods in providing medical
treatment and training for ex-soldiers

Electricity Cost is
Cut ST. Per Cent

Washington-The average cost OF
electricity to the consumers of the
country on September l, 1923, was
81 per cent less than the 1914 aver
age, and is the only item included in
the Department of Labor list of Cost
of Living items to show decrease
over the figure for June of this year
Food, clothing, housing, fuel, furni-
ture and miscellaneous, the other
items listed, show uniform increase
over the 1913 average, running from
49.3 per cent for food, GA per cent fol
housing, and 76 per cent for clothing
to 1924 per cent for furniture, where
as electricity has steadily decreased
in cost, from 2.6 per cent in Decem-
Der, 1918, to 81 per cent in Septem-
ber of this year.

FORD TO BUILD 10000 HOMES

Thirty thousand homes for wage
workers are to be erected by Henry
Ford and sold at actual cost of land
and construction. A tract of 5000
acres between Detroit and Dearborn
has been set aside by the auto manu-
facturer for this model city. Six
houses to the acre will leave plenty
of space for gardens and children's
Fairgrounds. Ford's announcement
says:
'They will not be uniform houses
like the coal industry and the steel
industry build for their employees
Every one of our houses will be diff
ferent from each other. Well use
the Edison plan for cement houses
generally, with lumber from our owr
forests for doors, windows and floors >

Public Health Service
Will Probe Diseases

Washington-The United States
public health service is conducting a
detailed study of common colds and
other minor respiratory diseases and
influenza in an effort to gather data
that these affections may be pre-
vented. Few individuals, it is stated
escape suffering some acute respira-
tory condition at least once a yea1
from day to a week or more. Some
of these attacks develop into serious
disorders.
These studies by the health service
are the first of their kind to be taken
up on such broad scale.

NO EXCITEMENT OVER HIRAM

Hiram Johnson's presidential can
didacy, officially announced, has made
scarcely a ripple on the political pool
in the capital. Progressives general
ly distrust him and standpatters are
better satisfied with Coolidge. The
California senator will not have the
support of any of the northwestern
farmer element, for example, because
of his denunciation of the Nonpartisan
league program on the eve of the pri-
mary election in North Dakota in
1920, and because of his own confes-
sion that he has played the reaction
ary game in recent years. Republicans
in Washington who consider them
selves progressive are apparently lin
ing up for Governor Pinchot of Penn
svlvania.

LABOR NEWSPAPER sUsPENDS
New York Leader Quits, but 1t May
Resume Publication
Later.

The New York Leader, which as a
labor newspaper succeeded the New
York Call, formerly the Socialist or
gan, has suspended publication. The
suspension was the result Of the de-
cision Of a commi&ee consisting OF
S. John Block, president of the Labor
Press association; Morris HillQuit, So
cialist leader, and Ossip Wolinsky of
the International Ladies' Garment
Workers union.
At the headquarters of the Labor
Press association 1t was said 1t was
expected that the suspension was only
temporary and that arrangements for
the publication Of a labor newspaper
on somewhat different lines would be
made later.
In announcing its suspension, the
Leader said:
when The Call, now The Leader,
passed into the hands of its present
owners 1t was their high hope that
with the resources at their command 1t
would be possible to create and suS-
tain labor newspaper. Events have
shown that 1t was possible to create
a paper with a wide and increasing
appeal to labor and to the community.
But they have also proved that the
costs Of sustaining that paper and the
length Of time necessary to bring 1t
In measurable distance Of self-suppOrt
exceeded the hopes and the immediate
capacity of the international unions.
'"The cost has been set in newspaper
stories at 100000 for month. This
Is grossly incorrect. 30 also is the
statement that The Leader gained
only 1000 circulation over the circu-
lation Of The Call and employed an
editorial staff Of forty as against ff-
teen. 1t regularly employed twenty
seven on news, editorial, special fea-
lures, magazine section and depart
ments, including four on part time.
This, of course, does not include
small allowance for space writers. 1t
more than doubled the circulation of
The Call-over 10000, az against 10,-
600 when the naw owners took over
The Call.
zone hundred thousand dollars was
the amount definitely subscribed to
launch the present venture. 1t not
only carried The Leader, but carried
The Call from August 13 until Octo-
Der 1. This included the costly perl
cd Of the pressmen's strike and pro-
vided for certain capital payments and
loans to the printing company. For
actual operations for period OF three
months we had less than $4,000. In
view Of the financial situation, 1t
seemed In every way right to sus-
pend The Leader while 1t is solvent
rather than to try to continue at
financial hazard paper Of greatly re-
duced size
1T is the hope Of those who have
the cause Of labor journalism definite
ly at heart that the period Of sus-
pension will not be long. At meet
ing q committee was appointed to
work on plans and possibilities Of re-
sumption within thA next few

WHAT WE HAVE

"America owns two-thirds of all
the telephones in the world" says
Charles Du Bois, president of the
Western Electric Co. And adds,
"Yet we complain of poverty where
IA men in 100 have what is only a
rich mans luxury in Europe.
Yes, and some folks complain OF a
lot of things here-they very folks
who have three square meals a day
an auto, the theater once week, cleo
trio lights, gas, bathrooms-all rich
mems luxuries of Europe.

what every once in while!-Cleve-

AFTER THE SUPREME COURT

F. L. LaGuardia, congressman from
the goth New York district, announces
on the first day of the opening of
congress in December Senator Borah's
bill providing that seven justices OF
the y. S. supreme court must concur
in holding an act of congress uncon-
stitutional. "This bill is simply one
of the first changes the progressive
group in congress intends to make,
he said. "Some of the most i'm
portant measures of congress We're
recently declared unconstitutional by
a five to four vote of the supreme
court"

Suing For Unpaid Wages

Sacramento, Cal.-The report Of the
state labor commissioner for the past
year shows an increase of II per cent
in claims of workers against employ
ers for unpaid wages. Unpaid wages
collected during the year was $685.
218.62 more than the year previous.

Labor Board is
Created in Montreal

Montreal, Quebec The govern
ment's new labor inquiry board will
hold hearings in various cities of this
province. Especial attention will be
paid to thecompensation question, and
the board has issued QUESTIONABLE

whom are urged to aid in developing
the best information on this matter.
The board consists of representatives
of the government, the workers and
the employers.

AS predicted in this column, Secre-
tary of the Treasury Mellon has been
accused of being more interested in
defeating the soldiers bonus than in
reducing taxes. The American Le-
gion started the assault on the Sec
retary's observation-disclosures pro
gram, and it has been taken up by a
number of progressive" leaders in
Congress. 1t is extremely doubtful
in view of the slender Republican ma
iority in the new Congress if the tax
question will be permitted to come up
at all. Administration leaders feai
that the "progressives" might over
turn the Mellon program entirely and
"gim" the works just at time when
every move must be made with an eye
to the next general election.

The names of Henry Ford and Sen
ators LaFollette and Borah are being
mentioned in connection with reports
that a "third party" will be in the
field after a convention in Mime
apolis on May 80. Ford continues to
puzzle politicians here, while LoFol-
lette and Borah have not yet indi-
Gated any desire to leap headlong out
of the Republican party.

A Weekly Panorama of Events in the
National Capital.
By Peter Keegan

Thousands of words are flowing out
of Washington each day and night to
all parts of the world as the cores
pondents bend to the task of fore
casting what President Coolidge will
have to say in his message to Con-
gress the first week in December
Thus far, the President has sealed his
lips to such an extent that he has
committed himself on no question of
importance, and although his views on
most questions have been the sub
ject of much talk and writing, the
policies of the Administrator will not
be definitely known until the Presi-
dent unburdens himself in his forth
coming message. Mr.. Coolidge is now
denying himself to nearly all callers
and is spending every spare minute
on the address, which will be several
thousand words in length.
The short lapse of time between the
announcement of Senator Hiram
Johnson's presidential aspirations and
the convening of Congress has caused
the rest of Mr.. Coolidge's potential
opponents to wait for a few weeks
before deciding whether or not they
want to enter the lists against him.
1t is reported in the capital that the
announcement of the candidacy of
William G. McAdoo for the Demo
catir nomination will be issued on De-
cember 5.

labor paper is like a muzzled bulldog.
He may growl and bark, but he can't
bite.

COMMUNICATIONS

The Leader would appreciate
hearing at all times from any
worker regarding any subject per-
tanning to labor, and will gladly
reproduce the communication in it's
columns. Whenever such COM
munications are received the name
and address should be legibly
written, but will be withheld upon
request.

APRiL'S LUCK

"Well," said April, II most certainly
DO have luck"
"Now what Is 1t, Aprll?" asked Billie
Brownie.
"Well," said April once more, you
know March just has the most dread
full time. March is complained about
Dreadful things are said to March and
Of March and about March.
"It's a wonder to me March is as
good as March Is when March is talked
about so.
II know I wouldn't be so good. And
as March has said 1t isn't March's
fault when Spring and Winter will
meet In March and will talk.
"Spring gets excited and talks much
longer than any one fancied Spring
would talk. and people want to change
and put on thinner things, and then
Winter begins to say something. and
It becomes colder as Winter talks, for
Winters voice Is very chilly.
"Then people say:
"'Ah, 1t is well MOI to change In
March,
"They call March treacherous. They
say no one can depend upon March.
Yes, they say all the things that really
are quite dreadful.
"Of course, 1t is true that March
isn't the month In which to take any
chances with ones clothes, but then
II isn't March's fault when Winter and
Spring get so excited.

"Tell 1t to me-" said Billie Brownie.

PLAN FOR CLEANING SILVER
Are Useful-Rub With Good
Abrasive Polish.

A satisfactory method for cleaning
household silver. according to the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, Is as follows: An enamel or
agate ware dish should be partly
filled with cleaning solution of one
teaspoonful of common table salt to
each quart Of water and placed d.
rectly on the stove to boil. A sheet
Of aluminium or clean zinc should
then be dropped into the dish and
the furnished silver placed in contact
with this metal. 1t is best that the
silver be entirely covered with the
cleaning solution and that the solu-
ton remain at the boiling tempera-
ture. AS soon as the tarnlsh has been
removed the silver should be removed.
rinsed In clean water, and wiped with
soft cloth.
Aluminium corrodes quickly In the
cleaning solution. so that aluminium
dishes of any value for culinary pur-
poses should never be used. Alum
mum ware, that would otherwise be
thrown away. or any inexpensive piece
of the metal. will serve very satisfac-
torfly for cleaning silver Zinc may
be used In place Of aluminium, but It
becomes corroded and inactive In a
much shorter time. The electrolytic
method may be used as frequently as
is necessary to remove the tarnlsh,
but 1t is necessary to rub the silver
with some good abrasive polish only
as often as may be desirable to re-
store the FURNISHED appearance

S(UJT S.
Conducted BY National Council of the Boy
Scouts of America-)
EVERY INCH A TROOP

One hundred scouts at the Westfield
(Mass.) Sanitarium for tuberculosis
compose Troop 4, which has the dis
tinctiOn of functionlng as troop "a
hours day, the boys eating, sleeping,
working and playing together as a
unit. These lads march to their meals |;
on patriotic occasions they carry the
flag to the sound of music. They go to
school a few hours each day, but the
greater part of their time Is consumed
In out-of-door activities In which scout
craft plays a vital and most interest
Ing part. The troop sleeps In the open
in a shelter especially made for the
boys by the men patients.
AS to the twelfth law, "a scout Is rev.
erent"-these boys say their prayers
in common morning and night. The
boys kneel together and remain kneel-
Ing until each grous Protestant, Cath
Ollie and jew, has recited its devotions.
Three chaplains, representing the three
faiths mentioned, are In attendance at
the sanltarium.
AS to the eighth law, "A scout Is
cheerful; he smiles whenever he can"
these boys have become famous In
the institution for their pluck and
spirit Of happiness. In the words OF
one of the chaplains, NEARLY every
child at the sanitarium Is cured, but
we have had two deaths within the
past few months. Both boys who died
were members of Troop 4, and to the
end each played his part every inch
scout Their cheertuness throughout
their Illness was so marked that the
other patients would come in not only
to visit the boys, but to bolster up
their own grit and courage"
The boys have built dam on the
grounds to bank water in a swimming
pool. Only a few of the stronger boys,
however, are allowed to, undertake
swimming. In basketry, Troop is ex-
tremely skillful. In 1921 at the East
ern States. exposition, the boys re-
ceived blue ribbon In recognition Of
the excellence Of their work. The
scouts good turns are often manifest
ed In their thoughtfulness for one an
other. For instance, these boys are
much devoted to papers containing
scout news. When such papers arrive,
the scouts make grand rush for this
section, but the boys always pass 1t
first 10 anyone Of their number who
happens that day to be confined to
bed. A passerby can see the boys
eagerly going over the items, and hear
such remark as, Look herel See
what these fellows are dolng!"
although these boys can never be-
come first-class scouts In actual rank"
continues the chaplain, "for the rules
of the doctor forbid their taking hikes
or attempting scouts pace, etc, in true
scout spirit they can reach the top. In
their work, the boys like to keep In
mind this thought on how to play the
game:
For when the One Great Scorer comes
To write against your nape,
He'll write not what you've lost or won.
But how you played the game"

PRUNES GOOD IN EMERGENCY

one wouldn't think of Offering guests
who have come. from a distance the
plain old prunes the children had for
lunch-and there isn't time to cook
anything. In one way or. another al
most every housekeeper has been In
this dilemma What one ingenious
woman did was to pit and mash the
luncheon prunes, and add to them a
few chopped nut meats-half a cup
full to "a pint Of prune pulp. She
stirred in a tablespoonful of lemon
Juice and two tablespoonful of sugar
and served the result with cream from
the top Of the milk bottle. This des-
sert became so popular she was called
on to prepare 1t frequently. and when
she wanted to make It look very at
tractive-and was not bridging an
emergency-she put 1t into Individual
pastry shells and decorated It with
whipped cream. When she couldn't
get whipped cream she made me

Drowned 1t delicately before serving.
The children liked this prune and
nut mixture In their school lunches
instead Of preserves, occasionally, and
served on plain crackers or between
two crackers, 1t was appetizing with
a cup Of tea. The United States De
partment Of Agriculture indorses this
prune and nut mixture for these uses

CODDLED EGGS ARE FAVORED
Plan Suggested for Cooking In Such a
Way That Whites Will Not
Be Overlooked. ..

Many means have been suggested for
cooking eggs In such way that the
yolks will be cooked and the whites
will not be overlooked. One Of the
mos. satisfactory is by coddling, which
is dene as follows: Allow cupful Of
water to each egg, bring the water to
the boiling point, remove 1t from the
fire, put In the eggs, cover the dish
closely. and leave the eggs In the water
for about seven minutes. There Is
some uncertainty about this method,
for eggs differ In weight and also In
temperature at the time the cooking
begins. On the whole. however, this
result can be obtained by pouring hot
water over eggs, If the same dish with
the same amount Of water Is always
used, but each cook must make her
own rules. .Es+
