British Honor Our Unknown Soldier

Columbia road and drove past the res
idence of former President Wilson to
the British embassy, where the party
stopped and called to pay their re-
spects.
The British visitors and guests were
received by President Harding at the
White House. Much favorable COM
ment about Americas capital city was
voiced by the visitors. One member Of
the club said, Certainly the hospital
ity here is wonderful, everything for
us and even arrangements have been
made with the local weather man to
provide some real English weather
during our short stay
One of the half-dozen ladies Of the
party declared she thought things in
America were perfectly all right and
the only objection she had was that
your dollar bills fly so fast"
The members of the Washington
Advertising club expressed themselves
as fairly captivated with the pleasant
and affable manner of the visitors, and
are all anxious to fulfill the "On to

Successor To Perlman.

One of the pleasant little hot
weather brain teasers" that Governor
Richie is dallying with is the choice
of Secretary of State to succeed
Philip B. Perlman, when that juriscon-
suit shall have become City Solicitor
in the Jackson administration Mr.
Perlman's appointment to the City
Solicitorship is assured.
The Governor has been going over
number of names in an effort to find
an appointee who would grace the. po-
sition and fulfill its requirements.
In this connection the Governor is
said to have thought of the former
State Comptroller and valiant polit-
ical and military warrior, Major E.
Broke Lee, but there are two objec-
lions to Major Lees appointment. For
one thing, his appointment might
serve to accentuate certain factional
difficulties which have recently been
composed to a certain extent; for an
other thing, Major Lee is very busy
with numerous enterprises and his

time to act as Secretary of State.
One of the Governors very good
friends is John M. Requardt, an As
sistant Attorney General when Richie
was head of the State Law Depart
ment 1t is possible that when Mr.. Re-
quardt returns from vacation trip
abroad the place of Secretary of State
may be rendered him.
William Mines Maloy is chairman
of the Public Service Commission, and
as The News said some days ago, he
would like to give up public utility
work. Mr.. Maloy is one of the Gov
errors most valued advisers. 1t may
be that he will be offered the place as
Secretary of State.
In Western Maryland, Frederick
county, is that rising young Democrat.
David Winebrenner III. Mr.. Wine
brenner, who is lawyer and news
paper editor, would not be averse, it
is understood, to being Secretary of
State. He is at present secretary to
United States Senator Bruce, but
shift in secretaryships might, it is be-
lieved, be arranged.

States cannot compel national banks
to surrender to them the deposits made

court held in case brought by the
First National bank Of San Jose
against the state Of California.
In 1880, P. A. Campbell deposited

then he has not checked upon the ac-
count nor made an addition to it. His
present address is unknown.
California claimed that, under two
laws passed in 1915, the money es-
cheated to the state and that the courts
of the state also took that view. The
bank contended, however, that the ma
tional banking act and not the state
laws controlled in such cases.

ships surged forward resistlessly, tear
ing great swaths as they passed, as
though twin, narrow-gauge cyclones
had cut parallel paths Of wreckage
through the woodland. Towering trees
went down before them like reeds, the
tanks grinding them remorselessly
under the steel-shod runners. At
times each tank was knocking over
half dozen trees at the same time,
literally roofing them from the earth
and numbering forward over PROSTATE
trunks foot or more in diameter
The sheer power of the geared Liberty
engines overcame every obstacle Of
ditch or bank or brush or tree clump,
and not an inch to right or left from
the selected course were the monsters
forced to swerve.
Later miniature tank attack was
delivered over the rough, sandy field
that is the playground of the school
herd. Three mark WIS" led the
drive, their six-pounder guns roaring
and machine guns snarling as they
crept forward behind a smoke bar
rage hurled from their guns. They
looked like crawling dragons, breath
ing smoke and flame, as they Shout
dered their way over bitches and sand
dunes to disappear over ridge be-
yond In clouds of dust and spouts of
flying debris flung up from land mines
that gave a realistic battle picture.

TAT E
CAPITAL
How To Fight Pests.

This is the season when bugs
worms and other crawling, creeping
and flying things come out of theil
winter and spring abodes to make life
miserable for tree and plant life
Officials of the State Forestry De
partment are already receiving ap
peals from farmers in all parts of the
State to tell them how to get rid o.
this or that bug.
Assistant State Forester Karl E
Pfeiffer believes that there are lots Of
farmers and tree growers who do MOI
know much about the insects ant
worms that destroy their trees.
For instance, some people believe
that when they see young army Of
ants blazing trail up the side of q
tree they are up to mischief.
Wrong, says Pfeiffer. The ants are
perfectly harmless to trees. Pfeiffel
explains that it is not the ant which
does the damage to the tree but the
aphid, which is regarded in insect life
as the cow for ants. In other words
the aphid is plant louise which is re
sponsible for leaving sort of a honey
dew on the leaves of the trees that is
thoroughly enjoyed by ants, which
make journeys to the leaves of the
trees. The aphid sucks the juices Of
the leaves to produce this honey dew
and the tree suffers.
Another pest to Maryland trees is
the tent caterpillar, which provides it
self a waterproof web tent about the
leaves of cherry and wild cherry
trees. Mr. Pfeiffer points out that this
is anotherIclever little pest which has
apparently learned to protect itself
against liquid sprays.
at is a sort of a gadabout worm. u
said Pfeiffer, that never stays home
during the daytime. but spends its
time out destroying the tender twigs
and bark. 1t goes into its waterproof
tent at night. A liquid spray is abso-
lutely ineffective on these pests. The
only way to get rid of them is to cut
or tear them out or burn them up
while they are at home. This must
be done at night They are exceeding
ly destructive and farmers should get
rid of them if possible"
The bag worm is another dan
gerous pest about which there are sew
eral inquiries. This is leaf-chewing
worm. 1t makes its home, Mr.. Pfeif-
fer says, out of the leaves that it cuts.
1t is particularly fond of evergreens
and pines. A tree infested with these
pests is in danger of being stHnted in
growth. When the worms are feed
ing they can even be heard chewing
the leaves.

The Home OF The Soul.

In olden times, it was believed that
the seat of the soul was the stomach,
most likely for the reason that a man
is never so completely used up as
when his stomach is out of order. For
the cure of ordinary stomach troubles,
there is nothing quite SO prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlain's Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and
enable it to perform it's functions nat
urally. Give them trial. They only
cost quarter.

In the fighting, and whole flock of the

were dismissed for want of
jurisdiction by the Supreme court,
which refused topass upon the validity
of the law.
Justice Sutherland, announcing the
courts opinion that the cases could
not be considered on their merits,
pointed out that the cases in which
the court hitherto had assumed juris-
diction differed from the maternity
cases, which presented only political
and not judicial questions.
The highest court, Justice Suther-
land said, was without authority to
pass upon abstract questions. He as
serted that state had no right to
bring suit to protect the rights Of the
citizens Of the United States. The fed
eral government must look after the
rights Of its citizens, he said, taking
the position that there was nothing
presented to distinguish the citizens to
such an extent as to give the state
right to act for them.
Referring to the claims of a tax
payer, as represented in the separate
case brought by Harriet A. Frothing-
ham, the justice asserted that the eff
feet of the law upon future taxes was
so remote that no basis was offered
under which any court of equity could
entertain the complaint.
The Supreme court will not assume
jurisdiction over the authority of an
other and coordinate branch of the
government, the congress, the justice
said. and will consider the constitu-

HOUSE FAILS TO PASS
ELLIS INCOME TAX BILL

ATLANTA, Dec. 12.-For the
second time in less than week the
Georgia house of representatives on
Tuesday night failed to pass the
bill introduced by Representative
Ellis, of Tiff, providing for statu-
tory income tax for the state.
The vote Tuesday was 96 for the
bill to 81 against it, the measure
failing of passage by lack of the
required majority vote of the en-
tire douse, 104 votes, which the law
requires for any taxation meas
ure.
AS offered Tuesday, it had been
changed to provide for 3 per cent
limit on the rate of income tax.
This change won for the bill mapy
votes, but not sufficient to pass.
Just before the final vote, an
amendment to submit the bill to the
people at the general election IN
November, 1924, offered by Repre-
sentative Moore, Of Appling county,
was defeated by vote of "a to 81
