China Sasses Hughes
Repudiates Debt

hington-Secretary of State
Hughes has lost the first and second
rounds in his diplomatic battle with
Russia in the far east. He is proper
tionately irritated.
In the first round, he sought to hold
the Japanese to a rigid attitude OF
loyalty to the Hughes-Poincare COM
bination to freeze the Moscow gov
ernment into a respectful obedience
in matters Of czarist debts and oil
concessions. Congress broke loose
with the anti-Japanese nonsense, and
Japan resumed negotiations with
Russia.
In the next place, Hughes had been
saving up that trick card-the claim
for S5,000,O00 against the Chinese
Eastern railway, which the allies seiz-
ed and used in military operations
against Russia in 1918, and held un-
til 1922. Then the Hughes confer
ence in Washington in 1922 agreed
that China should hold the bag and be
responsible to the allies for all stocks,
bonds and debts Of the road
When China began negotiating
with Russia, this year, for return of
the road to Russia, Hughes warned
the Pekin government that the allies
had made an agreement that China
must be held responsible for debts.
He mentioned this $5,000,000. China
has now notified Hughes and Japan
and France each one having spent
money on the same military enter
prise, that it holds itself responsible
to none of them.
This graceless conduct on China's
part is saddening to Mr.. Hughes. He

Los Angeles Police
Grade Low on Brains

Los Angeles, Cal.-Police Chief
Volmer of Los Angeles has given his
police the army intelligence test, and
the results indicate that the police
show a lower average intelligence
than the conscript army, during the
late unpleasantness. The same tests
as were used in the army were applied
on orders of Chief Volmer and show
some amusing figures.
Assistants detective captains aver
aged the mentality Of boys of four
teen years of age, some less than
nine, and as high as eighteen. Lieu
tenants averaged Is years with low
of two and high of 18. Sergeants
averaged twelve years and nine
months and one scored II points
showing a brain development of a
baby. Patrolmen averaged three
months higher intelligence than their
sergeants. They also scored the high
est points-201, and the lowest 2,
making it doubtful if some policemen
have any brain at all.
All these figures are based on
second test which averaged II points
higher than the first test. Test num-
Der one places these police two and
one half years lower in intelligence
than the results here shown.
Chauffeurs and clerks ranked much
higher and it also develops that police
officers passing the highest scores
were not considered reliable and cap
able by their captains. 1t also was
shown that the police officers who
show any intelligence seldom remain

feels that the Chinese ought to know
that the American occupation of the
railroad was solely to protect China
against Japanese designs. 1t was all
for China's good, and for the good of
the people of Russia, oppressed by
the bolsheviki. China, nudging Mos
COW and hiding a laugh in her sleeve,
can't see the benevolence in that Am
erican occupation. She remembers
that the Russian Whites, whom the
allies protected, slaughtered thou
sands of her railway employees out OF
sheer lust of killing, and destroyed
millions of dollars worth of property.
In earlier discussions of the protest
sent to Pekin, Hughes made no men
ton of his $5,000,000 claim. The
Chinese brought it to light when they
replied that they would pay no bills
for the military activities of the
United States, Japan Or France
against the Russians.

Our Child Slaves in
Asparagus Fields

San Leandro, Calif.-That owners
of asparagus beds in various parts of
the state are exploiting children is
the charge made by w. o. Davies,
supervisor principal of schools in this
city.
AS early as March, he asserts, the
exodus of children begins. The laws
are evaded in some instances by NOV
able part-time schools, which the par
ents transport with them. These are
useless, according to Davies, because
there is no supervision and no assur-
ance that the children will attend.
Davies charges are supplemented
by report of DR.. c. r. Blake, county
health officer, who has Investigated
child labor in the asparagus beds of
Sacramento valley.

Fatal Mine Accidents
Still on Increase

Washington-Fatal coal mine acci-
dents are continuing at a rate large
ly in excess of a year ago, according
to April reports received by the U. S.
bureau of mines. AS pointed out in
numerous reports these deaths result
from accidents which are largely pre-
ventible. The number of miners kill
ed in April was 234, bringing the
total for the first four months of the
year to 993.
The fatality rate per million tons
of coal was nearly double that Of
April, 1923, being 6.44 as compared
with 3.71. The 10 year average for
April was 4.94. The fatality rate for
the first four months was 5.06 per
million tons as compared with 4.08 a
year ago.
The number of fatalities due to
major disasters usually caused by ex-
plosions of gas and coal dust shows
a marked increase, totaling 384 for
the four months as compared with
140 in 1923. Failure of operators to
rock-dust gassy mines and the tardy
introductions of permissible explo-
sives are largely to blame.

Bringing In Indians
As StrikebreakerS

New York-Unable to get enough
strikebreakers in this country, the
Iron league, open shop combine which
is fighting the ironworkers in New
York and vicinity, has resorted to In
dians from a Canadian reservation
near Brantford, Ontario. Three of
the Indians have been arrested by i'm
migration officers and taken to Ellis
island for deportation, charged with
being smuggled across the border. In
ternational Association of Bridge,
Structural and Ornamental Iron
Workers officials say the Indians are
part of a gang Of iron work strike
breakers, used in various parts of the
country. The union by striking has
already won an agreement with most
of the large employers granting a
wage increase from $1,000 to S12 a
day.

Booze Runners Strike
Demand More Money

Atlantic City-The latest fashion
in strikes is believed to have been dis
covered in Atlantic City. Non-union
workers in one of the basic industries
of the country refuse to work unless
paid more. The element of industrial
accidents and increasing risks to the
workers health is involved
It's the rum-runners. They used to
charge 81 case for going out to sea
and bringing back liquor. Now they
demand 81 a case, because the coast
guard patrols are more active in
shooting at them. If caught by the
officers they dump the cargo over
board-and get nothing but curses
from their boss on shore. They say
the bosses higherup make all the
money, while they do all the work
and face all the dangers of the trade.

ANCIENTs USED FINGERPRINT

1t is told that indentification by
finger prints was practiced in the
days of Babylon. Clay tablets bear
ing writings have been unearthed
which being diciphered, turned out to
be receipts for valuables given by
contemporary royalty in the keeping
of trusted officials. At the bottom
of each tablet or under each receipt
was found curious imprint-the seal
of the finger-print pressed into soft
clay.
The modern system of the finger
print in the detection of crime dates
from the efforts of Sir Frances Cal
ton, famous traveller and scientist,
who was the first to give serious at
tention to the subject.

team and the Rawlins town team for
Wednesday evening, December 31st,
the fans in Rawlins can look forward
to a real treat in the basketball line.
In a letter recently received from
the manager of the Terrible Swedes,
a statement was made to the effect
that the team has played three games
so far this season and in each game
they came out on the long end of
the score 1t was also stated that on
this western trip, on which they are
now e~mbarking, they expect to win
every game they play.
1t is hoped and expected that they
will find a stumbling block when
they play in this city. The Rawlins
town team is n Of the fastest and
smoothest teams which has been de-
veloped in this city in many years.
The members Of the team have been
practicing together for several weeks
and now 1t has worked down to a
smooth running, goal-getting ma
chine. Captain Harold Close, who it
will be remembered a few years ago
was named all-state center and cap
tain, is still in his old form and is
going strong as forward OF the Raw
Inns team. He has also been playing
center at times. Hi Powers has also
been showing up good at the center
and holds down this position most
Of the time on the team. Engstrom.
Swartz and Conley have also been
working out in the forward positions
and bid fair for giving any opposing
team a great old run for it's money.
Mummert. John Larsen, Newell and
McGraw have more than made the
guard end of the team one to be
greatly feared when it comes to get
ting anything through the defense.
With such a supply Of good ma
terial from which to pick a fast team,
it is no wonder that the Rawlins
team romped on the Parco Oil Cans
a few weeks ago. 1t is only fair to
say then that Olson's Terrible Swedes
can look for a stumbling block when
they meet the Rawlins team on Dec.
31st.
The game has been called for eight
o'clock in the High School Gymnas-
ium and the admission price has
been set at so cents for adults and
35 cents for children. Two good
teams will be in action and there is
no doubt but what the basketball
fans will enjoy a rare treat.

Schools Combine for
Thanksgiving Program
(Contributed)

On Thanksgiving Eve, the Pass
Creek Basin school combined with
the Milo school in giving a Thanks
giving entertainment at the Basin.
1t is necessary to make a flatter-
ing account of the decorations that
played an important part in making
the party the success hat it was.
Black and yellow strips of paper
blended with pure green evergreen
branches that still retained their
of pine dropped in bountiful
clusters from the ceiling. Many
p%icturing various dishes of
Thanksgiving specials, were apetiz-
ingly canvassed upon the blackboard.
, 1924-12-18

The program started with a well
coming speech by Miss Goodman, the
instructor of the Pass Creek school.
Miss Lewis who Is in charge of the
Milo district followed Miss Goodman
with THE Landing Of the Pilgrims"
johnny Pumpkin, Thanksgiving Din
ner, and The Mince Pie King, all
thanksgiving poems were spoken by
Miss Veitch, William Richardson
and Miss Goodman.
The main event of the evening was
a cleverly arranged %pantomine dram
atized by the school children of both
districts by Mary Gwin and Kate
Dolling. This pantomine represented
the every day life of a typical Ameri-
can farmers wife. A willing talent
wildly portrayed these daily duties
with so much zest that the audience
was held in a uproar throughout the
play.
But there was more amusement in
store for the delighted visitors. Mu-
sic furnished by Mr.. and Mrs. Sober
green quickly set the crowd to enjoy
themselves in a modern pastime.
After the program every one was
called upon to give some original
poem, song, or In some way enter
tain the rest. Squeaky voices were
hammered out in endless %profusion
by ambitious aspirants. Unknown or
ators surprised the audience with
future masterpiece. An original
poem originated by an original
authoress was a great favorite. l dar-
say this poem eventually became the
talk of the evening.
Pass Creek Basin school also en-
tertained the Basin folks ON Armis-
tice evening with a patriotic program.
For this occasion, poems of blenders
Fields were spoken by the children
of the school. After which dancing
and games were INDUCED in until
late in the evening.

STATE UNIVERSITY
HAS GIGANTIC GYM
TATISTICSREVEA

Interesting statistics concerning
the size of the new gymnasium now
virtually completed at the Univers-
ity of Wyoming were published re-
Gently in the "OXford-Wyoming De-
bate Edition" of The Branding Iron,
official student publication. The size
of the great gymnasium, described as
being the Largest west of the Miss
issippi river" is set out in a striking
manne under the caption %"Stagger-
ing Statistics" as follows:
The basketball hall has an area OF
approximately one half acre; the cell
ing is 35 feet high; the seating ca
pacity is $500; there is one half
mile of overhanging steel balcony; the
basketball floor alone will contain
93,940 lineal feet. or approximately
is miles Of hardwood flooring and
1880 nails will be used in laying
the floor. An expert carpenter book
ing passage On a fast transatlantic
steamer would make the voyage from
New York to Liverpool nine times in
the same length of time it would
have taken him to lay that basketball
floor.
The walls Of the building contain
3,4O0 tons Of brick and approximate
ly 500 tons of limestone. The 100
IT. by 80 TT. tiled swimming pool will
contain $4,000 cubic feet of fresh,
purified water and the galleries sur
rounding the pool will seat six hun
bred persons.
The armory wing of the new gym
is large enough to have the infield
of a baseball diamond and there will
still be room left for a good sized
cinder race track for use in the early
spring. One hundred and fifteen
mammoth radiators will heat the at
mosphere, over a total floor area Of
100000 square feet.
There are approximately fifty
rooms in the building, including the
swimming pool room, the indoor rifle
range. armory, trophy hall, basket
ball hall, offices, recitation rooms,
issue rooms for football, basketball
and the military department; exer-
else rooms. physical training and
physical education rooms, physical
corrective rooms, mems and women's
