LONELY HUSBANDS

Once in a while an incident finds
its way into print which marks like
a sign-post the direction of the So
cial drift. Such was the fragi-com-
edy enacted recently in a New York
police station.
A 'welldressed, pretty. young
married woman" who had given a
fictitious name, tried to hang her
self in her cell to escape the dis.
grace of the discovery Of her arrest
after drinking too much punch at q
Saturday night party. The matror
discovered the attempt at suicide
and the woman was revived.
Meanwhile the fact had beer
published, and no sooner did It ap-
pear in print than husbands began
to telephone from all over New
York city asking for a more detailed
description. Fifty such calls were
reported before Sunday night, and
more were coming in.
Time was when the wife, left al
home, worried about her husband,
whereabouts. Evidently the shoe
is now on tho other foot. Hus-
bands, or some husbands. left al
home, worry about their wives.

CONSTRUCTIVE DEEDS
SHOULD Be POLICY OF
LEGION, Says 0WsLEY

Alvin Owsley. national commander
of the American Legion. who comes
to Casper July 26 for a day on his
tour of Wyoming. believes hat con.
structive activities OF the legion
should be emphasized above all other
efforts.
He recently issued the following
statement to all legion officials:
In an organization as large as
the American Legion. and one having
adopted the inclusive program which
has been undertaken by the Ameri-
car Legion. it is but natural that
from time to time. the aims and pur.
poses Of the legion will cross or CON
hict with hi interests OF some other
organization. group or interest and
that such group or interest may at
tempt to embarrass the legion either
directly or indirectly in any
which appears to them best calcu,
lated to serve their own interests.
In the face of any such attempt,
the national commander desires that
all officials of the American Legion,
national, departmental and post, CO.
operate with him in avoiding any
controversial act or public statement
devoting themselves more vigorously
than eve to the constructive activi-
ties of the American Legion, paying
no attention to attacks or misrepre.
sentations from any source whateer.
confident that in the end. the verdict
of the American people will be based
upon actions and not upon empty
misrepresentation.
THE American Legion can only be
injured by its own conduct. The
things which 1t does, or the things
which It fails to do, in the last
analysis. will determine its proper
place in America. We have neither
the time nor the energy to spare from
the great work which we have under
taken. to reply to all those who
would attack us. Let us keep our eyes
on the future n spend all of our
time Ind energy in constructive

has decided to re-organize Monte
Carlo. He has put up an addi-
tional five million dollars to restore
the Casino to its accustomed glory.
Great improvements are announced
for the buildings and grounds.
While adding to the capital invest
ment, Sir Basil proposes to reduce
operating expenses. He has dis
charged a thousand of what he calls
nonessential employees.
Monte Carlo is located in Monaco,
the smallest country in the world.
This little principality covers only
eight square miles and has a per-
manent population of about twenty
two thousand. The government
gets all Of its e from the
Monte Carlo gambling industry.
The amount to be paid annually is
fixed by contracts covering periods
of ten years each. At the present
time the annual payment is a little
less than half a million dollars. The
that it has had an average of a mil
lion and a half visitors annually
since the close of the world war.
Concerning Sir Basil Zaharoff
the public knows very little, aside
from the fact that he is tremendous
ly wealthy and hobs up in various
parts Of Europe with millions
enough to accomplish most any
thing he desires. It has even been
stated that he In n Millionaire. Al
though he was born in Greece, he
became a n~aturalized citizen of
France. His title, however. was
given to him by Great Britain and
hence it is difficult to determine
his real nationality. Sir Basil is
said to have been the strongest
British financial agent during the
world war, but little has been pub
lished concerning his activities
along that line.
No gambler is shrewd enough to
win any OF zaharoff's money at
Monte Carlo-the gamblers merely
win from each other and a goodly
portion Of the money brought by
visitors always stays in the Casino.
Sir Basil does not gamble and the
citizens of Monaco are not permit
ted to gamble. They live by the
gambling losses of others.

BRITISH ANGER
COSTS HIM CROWN
England About to Act When
Maharaia of Nabha Abdi-
Gates in Favor of Son.

Calcutta.-The lightning Of Britain's
anger has hurled another ruler from
the throne Of his ancestors. His high
ness. the maharaja Of Nabha. one Of
the Punjab states, has abdicated In
favor OF his son, four years old. The
maharaja, liberal, cultivated Sikh
OF an ancient house. stepped down as
result Of stern decision by Judge
Stuart Of the Allahabad high court
and his resignation has been accepted
by the government of India.
Yet 1t is not SO long since the
maharaja, who is only forty years old,
and who succeeded his father dozen
years ago, basked in the sunlight Of
Britain's favor. He had the honor
Of being received by his majesty,
King George. His highness-he re-
tains his rank and title-was one Of
the group of potentates who adorned
the kings coronation and dazzled
London by the magnificence Of their
gems and the splendor Of their at
tire. His spouse, whom he married in
1901, accompanied Sir Ripudaman
Singh Malavendra-to give his name
to the coronation.
Aided Britain During War. {
Out Of his private purse, which IL
deep and full. he made generous con-
tributions to the various war loans
and war funds; he, gave a fully
equipped hospital ship, the Nabha, for
services in Mesopotamian waters.
His loyalty was recognized by Great
ing him a grand commander of the
Order Of the Star Of India and grand
commander Of the Order Of the In
dian Empire.
He had been paternal ruler and,
among other reforms, introduced free
education in the elementary schools
Of Nabha. He was educated by pri-
vate tutors and has Travelled much,
both in India and abroad. He is a
Fellow of the Royal Geographical so
ciety and a member Of the Royal
Asiatfc society.
Despite all this the bolt Of British
anger has struck him and dethroned
