INMATE DEMANDS
INVESTIGATION OF
CONFEDERATE HOME
Veterans Beaten and Lib
critics Curtailed, He
Charges.

Houston, Tex, Sept. N2a.-A de-
mand for state investigation into
conditions Mt the Confederate Veter-
ans home at Austin was made here
today by c. c. Richart, an inmate
Of the home.
Richart charged that the home is
not being conducted properly and
that the inmates are mistreated. He
presented these charges to J. Z.
Rogers, state representative from
Houston, who said he is going to
see that they are investigated
thoroughly.
Richart said he is facing a charge
of assault TO murder in the county
courts at Austin following an altered.
ton in the h~me. He says this
alteration resulted from remarks he
had made concerning the way the
home is operated.
Among the charges that Richart
makes are:
1. That some of the inmates of the
home have been beaten.
2. That gifts of food sent to in
mates at holiday time are in some
cases kept from the veterans.
3. That the liberties of inmates OF
the home are curtailed.
4. That the investigation of the
home by the Legislature each year
is a farce and that inmates of the
home are not permitted to present
to these investigators their story OF
conditions there.

AMERICANS PUZZLED BY
CONFLICTING REPORTS OF
CONDITIONS in GERMANY
Rumors Say That People Verge of Starvation
While Others State That Nation Is Flourishing.
Writer Says Prosperity Exists in Some Classes
But On Paper Only-Farmers Live in Plenty
But Taxes Will Cause Their Ruin Eventually.

"flourishing Germany" is not liar.
He hos simply failed to consider
from what sources the flourishing
comes or how long it can endure, in u
land where hardl.' half of enc per cent
of the out-go is covered by receipts.
The expensive concerns and theat-
rical performances still are playing to
standing-roOm-only crowds despite the
fact that tickets cost I'D to 50,O00,-
600 marks.
The operettas and naked girl shows
in the cabarets are similarly crowd
ed in disregard to higher prices.
Initiation, profiteering and specula-
ton bring immense profits and the
men whose stock increases in value
every day by a billion marks does not
hesitate to spend n quarter of his
profit for amusement.
Only on Paper.
But this flourishing is only on pa
per.
The paper notes glisten now in all
bright colors.
But they will fall in the autumn like
the bright colored leaves.
lHe Whole population or Inc Occu-
pied territory of Germany has lived
for almost nine months at the states
expense.
This must now end, since the ma
tons floating debt has gone above
three thousand trillion marks.
Whether the efforts to create n new
currency will succeed is uncertain,
but many undertakings will be dis
closed cs losing businesses when the
paper veil, has been torn away.
The first indications e general
slackening of business already are visi-
Bile.
The wretched army of unemployed
is increasing rapidly, and is demand
ing the trial of former Chancellor
Cuno, who is travelling around the
world in luxury, undisturbed by re-
morse.
Only the most courageous effort
OF will toward truth and labor can
now rescue the nation from the verge
Of starvation.

AMERICAN GRAVES IN
FRANCE WELL KEPT,
TEXAS PRIEST SAYS
Brownsville Minister Com
r,issioned to Conse-
crate Graves.

Brownsville, Tex, Sept. 22.-"The
people Of America have every reason
to be proud of the care our heroic
dead are receiving over there was
the comment of Rev. Father J. B.
Frigon, pastor of the Sacred Heart
Church Of Brownsville, who arrived
home Thursday from France, where
he was sent by the federal govern
ment to consecrate the graves Of
American soldiers.
Father Frigon visited all the Gene
teries in which American soldiers were
laid TO rest, and consecrated many
thousands Of graves, being assisted in
his work by the French and American
military and church authorities.
Father Frigon's Official mission
took him through France, Belgium and
England, and he visited all the Ameri.
can national cemeteries in those coun-
tries.
He stated that the government is
making wonderful progress toward
completing and identifying those ceme-
,teries, and that the American people
should fully appreciate the work the
government is doing in this respect.
This was the second trip Father
F'rigCn has made to Europe to con
secrate the graves of the America
dead, but the work was not fully COM
pleted, and he expects to return TO
France next summer to complete mis-
labors.
During his four months abroad he
came in contact with many of the &C.
clesiast.cal, military and political
leaders, and stated that the demand
for permanent peace is general
throughout Europe.
Normal conditions are gradually re.
turning" be stated, "and everybody
talks and wants peace.
"Fhe consensus of opinion. even in
| England, is TO the effect that tn,
stand taken ~ France in regard tc
the Ruhr has been an important fac
tor toward securing u definite settle
ment."

and modified to meet the needs of an
Up 10 date school, lends each build
ing an architectural distinction. The
buildings have been designed to fit
the sites and TO harmonize with the
surroundings.
The Mark Twain and the Washing
ton Irving schools are of the Tudor
type; the Edgar Allen Poe school is
OF the Italian Romanesque type: the
Nathaniel Hawthorne school is of The
Spanish Romanesque type; the Ralph
Waldo Emerson school is of the neo-
classic tyre; the Joel Chandler Har-
ris school is of the Georgian type: and
the Sidney Lan,er school is of q
Spanish Colonial design.
Mark Twain and Edgar Allen Poe
schools sare of a modified one-story
type of construction. The other
schools are of two-story type with
the exception Of the school on Nc
kinley avenue which is TO be of q
modified three-story type of construc-
ton.
Doubtful About One Story Type
The difficult problem of making
the one-story type of building econom-
ical in floor space and at the same
time pleasing in regard to architec-
tural design. has been solved by L. E.
Mellor of the firm of Phelps and De-
wees, school board architects, it is
said.
The two one-story type of buildings,
the Mark Twain and Edgar Allen Poe
schools, were constructed at the
behest Of DR.. Rhodes. an earnest adj
vocate Of that type of building. School
board members, were loath to adopt
that type, since a one-story building
of the same seating capacity ms a two
story building. requires large site
and consequently will encroach to
some extent upon the Fairgrounds.
DIR. Rhodes, however. convinced the
majority Of the board that the one
story type was more desirable and
hence for the sites Of sufficient size,
that type was adopted.
Much ground space wa" saved by
the school board architects in adopt
ing the modified type of n one-story
building. BY placing cafeterias on
the second floor and having the class
rooms on the ground floor. a valuable
saving of playground snace was made
and at the same time the monotonous
lines of nm exclusively one-story build
ing avoided.

Houston for two successful terms,
winning the mayoralty, however, only
after hard and bitter political fights
in which important issues were sharp
ly defined. :,
He would, of course, be expected to
roll pretty strong vote over the state
among municipal government circles,
Mayor Yeti suggested, but outside of
this fact his strength would probably
largely lie in his championing certain
political causes.
The fsct that Mr.. Holcombe is
mayor of one of Texas largest cities
would also bring him political pres
tige and added votes, Mayor Yeti be-
lieves.
Mayor Yeti declined to state what

$50 RUSS REFUGEES
Leader Asks for Permission TO Re.
pair Boats in Chinese Port.
BY JAMES BUTTS

Shanghai, Sept. 22.-Lieut. Gen. +.
Gleboff, Russian "white" leader. has
arrived off the coast of Shanghai with
three transports carrying $50 Rus
sian soldiers.
The transports came from Gensean,
horea, where Gleboff and his. troops
have been refugees for some time.
The Russian commander has issued
statement declaring that he does
not want to add to the already serious
refugee problem by landing his men at
Shanghai, but asks permission to re-
pair his vessels here in order to en-
able them to put to sea again. If al
lowed to make repairs. he says, the
transports will sail back to Rus
sia
ALI of the men aboard the Rus
sian ships are former Tsarist soldiers
and there are no women or children
among them.
The transports fly the imperial
Russian flag.
According to Gleboff. he removed
his men from the Genesean because
they were being overworked by Japa-
nese authorities on railway and other
public undertakings.

HAS FAITH IN BOYS

A group Of scouts unsolicited, recent
~ took the responsibility of guarding
a certain dangerous crossing, of get
ting little children over in safety.
These boys didn't tell anybody Of what
they were doing. They weren't look
ing for credit-they were just doing.
Last winter scout stood guard over
a live wire for several hours on a
freezing night. In passing, he had
seen the danger, and on his own in
itiative guarded passersby until the re-
pairmen came. He froze his ear, but
he did his duty as scout. '.
And when the boy scout organiza-

said: "We claim there are no natural

directed or undirected, mischievous,
needless or mistaken boys 1t based
that assertion and the following one

plenty Of interesting, worthwhile
things to do in his out-of-school or af-,
ter-work hours, that the chances are
he will have little inclination to ma

GET the GUN ToTER

The recent move for the enforce
ment of the law prohibiting the IN
discriminate sale-<and carrying OF
firearms is the first intelligent action
that has been made since the hyste-
ria to check crime struck our state
and city officials and our great news
papers. 1t is an attempt to get at
causes, while the capital punishment
bill, just defeated in the. Senate, was
silly move for repressive- nom
curing measure.
If the policing authorities will stop
the sale of firearms and prohibit the
display of guns in the windows OF
pawn shops and cheap stores, they
will be working intelligently to check
crime. If they will go farther and
catch an appreciable percentage OF
the persons who commit crimes there
will be no crime "wave." Hereto
fore it has been the practical Ger
tainty in the mind Of the criminal
that he would not be apprehended
that has led him to unprecedented
daring and bloodshed.
Stop the sale of guns, and catch
more criminals and crime is bound to
decrease.

In the face of the most shameful
revelations regarding the morals Of
hundreds of high school children the
opinion of colored Cleveland divides
and hesitates. There is even some
talk of the exposure coming to
naught. If this is true, the colored
populace of the big Ohio city can
not be too severely condemned. The
old Clevelanders blame the newcom-
ers, and the newcomers resent being
blamed All factions fear separate
schools, and one has suggested that
the exposure was unwise. No good
can come of this shilly-shallying.
The conditions exist to the. shame Of
all Cleveland: all Cleveland should
unite in an endeavor to clean things
out, and let the blame fall where it
may. The moral and spiritual clean.
illness of the boys and girls is above
every other consideration. Better,
yes, to have. clean separate schools
than rotten mixed ones.
