Some one whether the discovererS or
the Egyptian government, made too
, much of a good thing OF 1t Sunday by
following all and sundry-except the
newspaper men-to invade Tutankha-
mems mortuary chapel and to verge
on the fourth chamebr adjacent to the
mausoieum. When the tomb was OPEN
ed yesterday morning and surveyed
after the excitement Of Sundays Of
fetal opening it was found that the
passage Of a number of exceedingly
stout men through the narrow space
between the side Of the outer gold
covered canopy and the solid rock
wall had been bad for the canopy,
which is in a most frail condition
after its 3,400' years undisturbed vigil.
The Egyptian governments repre-
sentatives emitted several exclama-
tions Of horror and pulled its collec-
! tive beard-most officials Of the an

be taken Of damaging the beautiful
canopy.

On August 20, Governor McMaster,
of South Dakota, issued the following


of South Dakota, issued the following
statement
AT a meeting with Colonel Stewart,
Chairman of the Board of Directors of
the Standard Oil Company of Indiana
and other Standard Oil Officials, held in
Pierre this morning, MIR. Stewart eX-
pressed unqualifedly the willingness of
Standard Oil to comply with the wishes
of the consumers of the State of South
Dakota in SO far as those wishes could
be expressed and interpreted by the
governor of this state. These Standard
officials, although they contend that the
present prices do not properly reflect
the costs of production, refining and dis
tribution, plus reasonable profit, were
willing, at my request, to do one of two
things raise the price of gasoline imme-
diately in the State of South Dakota
where it would represent a six and six
tenths cent reduction over former prices,
or maintain, for the time being, sixteen
cent gasoline in the State of South
Dakota, using Mitchell as base.
"After due consideration, the Standard
Oil officials were asked by the governor
to maintain the present price of 10 cents
for the time being. wish to accept full
responsibility for this situation and state
that Standard Oil, by deed and act, is
working in fullest cooperation with the
governor of this state and therefore can
in no respect be blamed for 16 cents
gasoline from this date
Il realize that the independents who
have viciously assailed and attacked me
will raise bitter complaint against this
condition. However, after due con-
sideration and investigation, | wish to
say that if the former gasoline prices OF
this state were excessive, the lndepen-
dents of this state were just as respons-
ible for that condition and were just as
guilty of taking excess profits as was
Standard Oil
AT no time during the period which
former gasoline prices prevailed did any
independent of this state raise one Objec-
ton or bring one complaint to this office
in an effort to bring about any reduction
Ill p1lS Ool IIlSy WIN PSAASNSAy VAAAAiS
to profit to the fullest extent.
81 realize that all sorts of charges will
be made against me because of this &C
ton, but in view of the fact that gasoline
can be purchased at various refineries
today for approximately seven cents a
gallon, it will not work injury to the
public cause if the Independents are
forced for the time being to do business
on small margin of profit. There is no
particular reason why the State Govern
ment should guarantee to the independ-
ent Oil Dealers of this state, at least for
the time being, fixed profits, especially in
view of the fact that they were perfectly
willing and were party to take ex-
cessive profits from the people"
This clearly defines the position
which the Standard Oil Company Ind
LANAI has maintained throughout this
controversy.

-Four Causes for Suicide
record mounting2

Why is the suicide record mounting7
There Is psychology of suicide, according to Prof E.
F. Moss head of the department of applied psychology,
George Washington university.
There four general classes into which suicides
be divided.
When woman is found with gas turned on
victim of bchloride, window jumping etc. Prof
Moss says you may look for of these reasons:
Disappointment trouble in love- failure in business
ambition; deluson of personal wckedness persecu-
tons, etc; despair illness.
And police precincts may expect suicide calls around
10 IL o'clock in the morning and IL or IL at night
These are the hours Prof. Moss says, when person
with the suicide idea is most likely to carry it out
Why? The psychologist doesn't try to explain. Sta
tstics simply show that most suicides occur at those
hours. Possibly around midnight, the climax of day of
dsapponments has been reached and at 10 IL in the
morning some last attempt has been made and failed
Methods vary with the sexes, nationates and races
Statistics show, Prof Moss says that are more fire.
Quent suicide victims than women, and that they usually
choose more active to end it ala revolver bull
let drowning, etc. woman when she decides to slip
across the border of her voition Is more likely to
turn on the gas or seek some other passive means
As to different nationalities the Norwegians and
Swedes prefer drowning the Spanish daggers the Ger
mans poison, etc.

These are the days when one hears chorus of relief
that congress is longer in session. There Is hardly
any variation The session failure. In this respect
It is like other congresses. Congress talks too much The
rules prevent efficiency Important subjects are Ignored
and unmportant gratis command attention. There are
wranglngs with the executive and with the judicial de-
partments.
In this connection The Star recalls poem. It goes
something like this:
ooh. do not push your sisters face
Nor give her mug swat;
Remember that il doubtless is
The only face she's got
Congress Is our little sister The face Of congress is
the only face it's got After all, it Is congress If
II Is inefficient is inefficency Congress is our
representative body. Officially not unofficialy and
uay, it represents you and her. If 1t does not rep
resent us, it is fault
If congress is stupid, it is because are stupid II
we can't invent system of representation which repre-
sentS don't deserve to be represented Congress is
just about good the people represented Taken
by and large it is a section country
When we are damnng congress we are dannlng our
selves When say that better off without
gress admitting that democracy worked out by
Representative government" is failure.
Personally the writer is not willing to admit this He
has idea that congress like this, like any
other of the congresses that have gone before will
after, Is better than a monarchy.
If we don't like the people who represent in
in our legislature had better change
ess and legislature; had better change our politics.
obterae parties and set about choosing people who
will better represent US.
So again suggest: DO push your sisters face"
