KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Feb. 21-tBy.
United Press. 1.-The recipe for happi-
ness, according to Miss Harriet Be
dell, mission worker of the Alaskan
arctic circle for the last six years is:
Life in log cabin, preferably
snowbCund.
No movies.
d No automobiles.
No Photographs.
In short, nothing but the real ne
cessities.
On her first visit to the United
States since she entered the mission
airy field, Miss Bedell here today was
most impressed with the artificialty
of life in the civilized countries
up there in my little village of
about $50 Indians, cut off from the
world for the eight months of win
ter, we were happy. That is more
than can be said for the average
community here"
Miss Bedell was the only white
person in the village and she would
have had to travel nearly 100 miles
in any direction to have paid So
cial on a white woman.

pect to arrive there before the Sep

Under the present system of pro-

pictures said Kyne in Los Angeles.
80 many people who know nothing
about art or its construction at all
have say SO; each one thinks his
viewpoint better than that of the
other
''The result Is frequently chaos,
and even when director has made a
splendid production and the picture is
sent to the home office in New York,
various half-wics there get out their
little scissors and start the work
which is later completed by the Polly

Beyond that a good many of the
present actors are a lot of Mormons-
not all of them, by any means, but
by far too high percentage"
kyne is having running battle
with Reginald Barker, producer
with whom he disagreed
Barker, who rejected several Kyne

MELONS LETTER MAY
BRING DEATH TO FARM
CREDITS LEGISLATION

WASHINGTON. Feb. 21.-Senator
Lenroot, republican, Wisconsin,
speaking in the Senate today de-
clared that enactment of any rural
credits legislation, except the Capper
bill, by the present Congress had been
rendered highly improbable as re-
suit of Secretary Melons letter yes
terday to Chairman MeFadden of the
House banking committee that the
Lenroot- Anderson bill was faulty in

attacked the treasury head for his
position on the measure.
There is no essential difference
between this measure as passed
unanimously by the Senate Mr..
Lenroot said. 'and the bill as ap-
proved by the joint agricultural COM
mission which was in turn approved
by Mr.. Mellon. The only actual
changes were TO extend the benefits
of the law and TO increase the pos
sible capitalization of the credit or

HOUSE FORCES ITS
AME MDMEN To
ARMY SUPPLY BILL
Senate Agrees to Changes in
Measure-Age of Enlist
ment Raised to Fl
Years

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-The army
appropriation bill, carrying over
$336.OeO,o 600, and last of the annual
supply measures before the present
Congress was in completed form to-
night when the Senate, without a
record vote, adopted the conference
report as 1t came from the House.
The Senate, in giving It's APPROVAL,
rsceded from those amendments
which the House by It's vote today
had insisted upon.
The bin was sent back to
conference tonight by the House,
which instructed its conferees to in
sist on two of its most controversial
provisions. One of these would deny
retirement pay, under certain condi-
tions, to army officers engaged in
private business dealings with the
government. The other would pro-
hibit the enlistment in the army of
boys under Fl years of age without
the consent OF their parents.
In insisting on the inclusion of a
provision relating to retirement pay,
the House modified language which
was stricken out in the Senate. As
originally drawn, it would have de-
MED such pay to any officer employed
IN any business which sold goods to
the government. The name of Major
General Hartford, former deputy
chief OF staff, now head of a .dio
corporation, was mentioned In the
debate preceding its original adop-
ton and Secretary Weeks criticized
the action of the House, which he
said, Disseminated against a faithful
and efficient officer.
Hartford to Get Pay.
AS modified, the bill would deny
retirement pay to any officer en-
ployed In private business as sales
or contracting agent or as manager
or directing head of sales or con-
tracing departments" for the pur-
chase of selling to the war depart
ment. 1t would Withhold the pay of
retired officers employed in any ca
pacity by concerns regularly or
frequently" engaged in making direct
sales Of any merchandise or material
to the war department"
Many of those who favored the
original language of the bill said
the pay of Major General Harbord
whose corporation sold only a small
amount of material to the govern
ment last year, would not be affected
under the language as finally drawn
and Chairman Anthony of the APP
populations subcommittee, which
has the bill in charge, said the ma
jority opinion seemed to incline to
that view. He said. however, that it
might require an opinion of the
comptroller of the treasury as to
what constituted regular and fire.

REFUSE INSURANCE TO
DEALERS IN LIQUOR

PITTSBURG, Feb. 2i.-While the
regularly constituted authorities are
experiencing some difficulty in To-
eating wealthy bootleggers, impor-
tant life insurance interests say they
are finding them with comparative
ease and, because of the moral haz-
ard" involved, are refusing to insure
their lives.
Men who a few years ago were
glad to carry policies covering few
thousands are now making applica-
ton for policies ranging from $4,000
to 100000, and in some instances
in excess of the latter amount. Un-
less they are wen known and have
a high business standing they are
very carefully investigated, and il
there is any suspicion as to the
source of their incomes, they are re-
jected, it matters not how good
physical risk the examining physi-
clans decide they may be.
Within the past few weeks one
applicant who wanted a policy of
$4,000 was rejected on the ground
that he was not a good moral haz-
ard, and little later an applicant
who wanted insurance to the amount
OF 100000 was told he could not
nave 1t. Other applications from
other bootleggers have gone the
same way, they say.
I'VE count the moral hazard as
something worth fhile,' said an in
surance authority, discussing the
business offered his company by
bootleggers. I'VE. feel we cannot af-
ford to take on men of this kind,
and rather than compromise morals
we refuse all such applications. How
do we know they are bootleggers?
When we see a man grow suddenly
rich, without any visible means, we
are suspicious, and little investi-
cation usually tells us whether we
are right or wrong. 1t might, be
difficult for us to prove it in court,
but we prove it to our own satlsfac-
ton, with reasonable mental mar
gin OF safety

WASHINGTON BUREAU |
THE AGE HERALD
4. Z 4 n 4

R. NJ. Rails, postmaster at Athens,
will be permitted to complete his
term despite certain complaint by re-
publican politicians, the Postmaster
General assured Senator oscar w.
Underwood today.
one of the complaints against
Rawls, regarded by republicans as
serious. was that he did not sweep
out the post office as often as COM
plainants thought necessary. Rawls
promised to improve this condition.
AS a whole the complaints were re-
garded as frivolous and based on the
alleged desire of republicans to dis
place a democrat.
Representative E. IL Almon was
likewise interested in retaining
Rawls.
