RAG Day FOR
MEN
PROPOSED HERE.
Lions Suggest Drive to
Organize Movement
OF Auxiliary.

Rag Day" will be a real
ity in Casper in the near fu-
ture if a movement launched
last night by the Lions club
receives cooperation from
other civic clubs and organ
izations. A committee appointed by
DR.. NJ. C. Keith, president of the
Lions, will confer with other organ
izations.
Suggestion for observance Of a
''rag day found in its origin an ap-
peal for assistance from the Amerl
n Legion auxiliary which brought
TO the attention OF the club the plan
to supply the government hospital
at Sheridan with clean rag for
patients to work into rag rugs.
Until recently the rags were supplied
by the government but the hospital
has since been thrown on It's own
initiative. The work of making rugs
offers a great measure of relief for
soldiers suffering from shell shock
and other mental arrangement Incl

and there are approximately zoo
such patients al Sheridan.
II rag day" plans are carried
through the public will beasked to
deposit all their old rags. washed
clean. I'm a place convenient for
gathering them up. Cars viii be
donated for this purpose by persons
desiring to assist and the rags
should be collected with minimum
effort and expense. 1t will necessi-
tate the donation of considerable
time on the part of some workers.
The movement will tighten the work
Of the legion auxiliary materially as
only slow progress could be expected
without concentration Of effort.
General Burke H. Sinclair last
night addressed the Lions on the i'm
portance Of service. with particular
reference TO the labor of the club
committees in working out the pur-
poses and aims OF the club. Com
mittee members should share the
work equally, he pointed out. in
stead of shouldering the burden on
q single member. Service for the
love OF serving and not for the glory
or credit won for the club or indl-
vidual was emphasized and aptly II.

possibility of the fatal bullet having

this regard. Mr.. McKain said that
he had examined the ground around
the scene of the shooting and had
counted the distance If the New.
comb a from the entrance of the
town to the town itself. This dis
lance he said. was something more
than 200 feet. The examination Of
the ground, according to his state
ment. was made on the following
day. He found a .45 calibre bullet
20 feet in the e of the spot where
the Newcomb car had stood. He
did not make known his possession

DALLAS, Tex, October 26.-villifi-
cation of the Constitution of the
United States Is unthinkable. and
when one laughs at any portion of
the law, as embodied In that instru-
ment, he some day may find it guar
antees his own liberties and his prop
erty when laughed at and defied by
some one else, Senator Oscar w. Un-
derwood of Alabama and candidate
for the democratic nomination fol-
President, told luncheon clubs here
yesterday.
The senator previously had dis
cussed the foreign policies of the
United States in an address to a
large audience at the state fair OF
Texas.
Standing on the same rostrum that
twelve years ago held Woodrow Will
son when he launched his presiden-
tial nomination candidacy, Senator
Underwood, at the state fair coli
scum, based his own candidacy upon
the principle of Americas duty
toward Europe.
The outstanding issue which the
people of the United States must de-
eide at the next presidential election
he said, Is whether America Will re-
deem the pledge made on the battle
fields of Europe, through Woodrow
Wilson, and restore peace and sta
bility to the governments of Europe
or allow the present debacle to drift

Mrs. Blair of Democratic
Committee Alleges Civil
Service Used as "MaSk."

Mrs. Emily Newell Blair. vice
chairman of the democratic national
committee, charges in statement
today that the republican admins
tration has returned outright to the
spoils system and is clinging to civil
service in name only, using IL as
mask behind which to hide from job
seekers, while manipulating favorites
into office"
Cites Views of p. o. Appointments.
"I am putting before the woman
voters of the nation. in pamphlet
form, the record of the republican
administration on civil service dur
ing the past three years." Mrs. Blair
said. Il want women to study the
remarks of former Postmaster Gen
eral Work and the incumbent, former
Senator New, on post office appoint
ments; how they have ignored eff
cheney ratings to give jobs to polit-
ical henchmen. Dozens of cases are
cited and hundreds of others have
never been written into the official
records.
Il know that no woman will fail
to see the injustice in the treatment
OF A. T. Davis. scientist and expert
engineer. thirty-five years in the
government employ, who was ousted
as director Of reclamation by Secre-
tary of the Interior Work in order
that his job might go to d. w. Davis
or ldaho. politician and grocer.
There are other equally vicious acts
which have been laid before the
women for their perusal.
Made Special Study.
There are about 100000 women
in the various non-partisan women's s
club organizations in America. and
every one of these groups has a civics
division. in which civil service has
been made a special study Women
are ktenlv interested in the merit
system and thousands of their clubs
have adopted resolutions urging that
civil service he kept out of the
'SpnilSmen'S' hands"
The statement also made a vigorous
attack on c. Bascom Slemp. secretary
to the President, charging him with
being inimical TO civil service.
