BRITISH SUGGEST LIMIT
ON AERIAL ORNAMENTS
Major General of English Army Says
That 1t Is Time That Thinking
Is Done.

London, Aug. IT. - Maior-General
Sir Frederick Maurice, who was CHIEF
OF military operations for Great Brit
ain during the war, declares In an
article on the increase In the air
forces of France and Britain that ut
is high time the question of limita-
ton of ornaments is taken up seri-
ously." He says that the British gov
ernment's recent decision to nearly
double England's present air equip
ment meant return to competition
in ornaments and that such competi-
ton is not likely to lead to improved
relations between the two countries.
General Maurice emphasizes Great
Britain's willingness to enter into a
conference on the reduction of air
ornaments similar to the Washington
conference on naval ornaments. But
for the present, he says, Britain must,
out of self-protection, bring her air
strength up to that of France.
France" says he, sis the only coun-
try which within the next ten years
is likely to be able to consider seri-
ously an attack upon England from
the air. Today we are not in the
most remote danger of invasion which
comes by sea. Therefore, for the first
time for centuries, the navy has ceased
to be our first line of home defense,
and that role has devolved upon the
air force.

AMERICAN MOVIES
CORRUPT MORALS
Films Factor in The RuinatiOn Of
Morals Of East

Philippopolis-- Bulgaria, Aug. IT.
American film presentations which
would not be tolerated in America are
doing their conspicuous share in ruin
ing the morals of the Near East,
said DR.. 7. T. Holloway. American
missionary and educator in Bulgaria
in speaking recently with a represen-
tative of The Associated Press.
In the recent crimes which have
stirred the public, police investigation
has disclosed that the inspiration of
the crime, and the suggestion of the
method by which 1t was attempted,
came from an American film recently
shown In the community.
In one criminal attempt a prom
inent citizen was instructed by the
Black Hand to deposit q large sum
of money In the corridor of railroad
car. The agent of the Black Hand
appeared to collect, and the investiga-
ton that followed his arrest proved
conclusively that his inspiration came
from an American film called The
Secrets of New York
"1n case of boy banditry it was
proved that the suggestion of the
crime came from another American
film. In still another case, where a
robbery by adult bandits was COM
mitted, it was also discovered that the
suggestion as to both crime and
method came from an American film
then running locally.
"A douby regrettabe feature of
such presentation is that they utterly
misrepresent America and show it to
the credulous in the light of coun-
try where the criminal is king"

AMENDMENTS HARM
LADY AST0R'S BILL
Real Object Of Beer Legislation
Made Practically Harmless

London, Aug. 17.-Lady Astor's
liquor bill is regarded by the liquor
interests as a huge joke-in fact sc
much SO that they have made no Sc
rious efforts to hinder its passage.
The most persistent opponents OF
the bill when it was first introduced
in the Commons now regard the
amended form SO harmless that some
of them even went so far as to sup
port it.
The original intention of the bill
was to prohibit the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquors to persons under 1S years
of age, heavy penalties being provid-
ed for infringements. The committee
in charge of the bill, however, insert
ed the vital words knowingly under
eighteen" and now the proprietor
cannot be fined or arrested unless it is
proved that he knew the consumer to
be under age.
Another amendment to the bill per-
mits persons under Is years to be
served with beer and wines with a
meal This has earned for the bill
the title Beer and Biscuit Bill" since
the latter is recognized as g. meal
within the understanding of the Eng
lish law. What is more, it is not nee
essary for the meal to be ordered in
the saloon, hence a boy or girl may
bring g. biscuit with them and be
served with as much beer as he or
she wishes.
The only people Lady Astor's bill
seems to have pleased are the anti
prohibitionists, for they believe that
1t has placed a barrier in the path, of
total prohibition, as 1t has used up all
energy of its supporters In seeking to
have this bill passed and there is not
enough left to put the mere stringent
and less evasive measures. The only
prohibitionists in the House of Com
mons spoke against the bill as being
a weak sister," which would do more
harm to the cause than good.
Lady Astor responded to the at
tacks saying that she couldn't please
everyone, and some vexatious meas
ure must be put UP with. She said
that II she did what she wanted to
on a hot day she would take a jump
into the lake in st. James Park. .
To this another member cried out
IT wish you would, that has gone dry
now"

LOVE IN PENNSYLVANIA
SC0RNS ROYAL DECREE
American Doughboy Figures in Ro-
nance With Princess Hyeana
of Austria.

Bucharest, Aug. 17.-Queen Marie
tells delightful story about heI
youngest daughter, Princess Ilyeana
In which an American doughboy liv-
ing in Pennsylvania figures.
The former Yankee soldier, who
had served on the western front in
France, returned to his fathers farm
in little town near Philadelphia,
where he saw photographs of the lit
tie princess with her pet dog in the
American Sunday pictorial supple
ments. Enamoured Of her smile and
girlish. beauty, the doughboy wrote
the princess asking her to correspond
with him, saying If she would become
his girl he would never take any
other girl to the movies"
The princess, who is Just past IA
. and surprisingly pretty, replied to the
Yankee soldier boy, enclosing her
photograph and saying she had heard
lot about the gallantry of the
American soldiers and would be de-
lighted to hear from him again. The
doughboy replied expressing his re-
newed admiration for Europe's pref
test princess, and a. wish to see her
In real life. Ilyeana was about to &C
knowledge his letter when her moth
er. Queen Marie. discovered the cor
respondence and cautioned her that
she must not raise false hopes in the
heart of her youthful admirer. She
ceased her letters regretfully. but the
letters from the doughboy have con-
tinued to this day.
In relating the story the queen took
occasion to say that the frequent re-
ports about the engagement of IL
yeana to King Boris of Bulgaria were
silly fabrications, and she cited the
doughboy story as illustrating the
childlike simplicity of Ilyeana and her
unpreparedness for marriage.

i've. Is Launched on
Chicago Visit.

CHICAGO. Aug. s.-while friends
OF Governor Jonathan H. Davis OF
ans have put his hat IN the ring
Tor the democratic presidential nomi-
nation the governor who refrained
from commenting to any great extent
upon the boom his supporters have
launched. vas on his way to Kansas
City after spending two dnys here on
state business.
While asserting that he had no DO
htical ambitions, the governor n
Gated he would gladly accept n
position in which he could ue of SER
vice to his country, including the
presidency.
i have no political ambitions the
governor said. 1T have gone higher
III 1 ever anticipated and 1 am
to the people OF my state
for the honors they have conferred
upon me But II my party should
nominate me-is there a man living
who would refuse such an honor?
The democrats Of Kansas have made
me their first choice and 1 am in
their hands"
The governor expressed himself as
opposed TO fixing Of prices for the
farmers products.
If the farmer can have a definite
price fixed on his product, why should
not the baker and grocer and shoe
maker DO favored in a similar man
ner?" he remarked.
Il am against class legislatton
either for the farmer or for the CAPT.
talist or for anybody Governor
Davis declared. But I do believe in
fair play and the farmer has not been
getting IT.
Tho imitation period following the
war is ended. The farmer knows
that. He has paid the pronteer as
well as the city man. We are now
at a point where we must uso com
mon sense to help the farmer pass
through n crisis. That crisis is due
to over production of wheat and the
shutting down OF the European mar
ket. over production will be remedied
next year by diversifying the crops,
planting alfalfa and other things in
place OF wheat. But we cannot de-
stroy the over production OF this
ear. We must do something prac-
teal to tide the farmer owe until
next year.
"I would call an economic confer
ence of everybody Interested actively
and directly in the production and
growing OF food products. 1 would
suggest that the farm loan board, or
let us say. perhaps. Henry Ford. take
over $50 900, 900 bushels of wheat at
81 and hold It for a year. Whoever
did hat would lose nothing. for he
would control prices absolutely"
