Som e Radicals

Editor The Washington Times:
0NE hears so much about radi.
" calls that one might think a
radical is a thief, a crook, an un.
desirable citizen. Judging the men
who have been and are now being
called radicals, for one should
be delighted to be called q radical.
I believe the definition of the
word is due for a change, If
you are honest and upright and
almost sacrifice everything to bet
ter conditions, and ring or rings
of certain individuals are en-
deavoring to hurt your reputation,
but have no grounds, they call
you a radical.
1t is pretty difficult to surmise
what would happen to this country
were 1t not for radicals like La
Toilette, Walsh, General Organ,
and most important of all, the
radical publications, so called. /
venture to say that we'd know
very little of the oil scandal were
1t not for the Hearst publica-
lions and q few other impartial
periodicals. What little informa-
ton the partial periodicals print
is due to the fact that the Hearst
publications are in the field to
bear evidence against misrepre-
sentation of facts-the Vet Btu
reau scandal, the oil scandal.

-HE islands of Bermuda have
been famous for several
hundred years. For at least
a century they have been a fav-
orite resort Of Americans who
wish to escape the winter, and,
recently, to escape prohibition.
Bermuda Is a British colony,
located only q few hundred miles
off the American coast in about
the latitude of Georgia During
our civil war 1t was the head
quarters of the fleet of blockade
runners who braved destruction
by the Union navy in order to
trade with the South.
These islands are really but
pin-points on the Atlantic ocean.
If YOU climb a lighthouse In
Saint David's Island, a little
tower only a little over one hun
bred feet high. you can see the
entire archipelago spreading out
below you, and good wide mar
gin Of ocean all around 1t. The
largest island is only a few miles
long, and the smallest a few hun
dred feet. Causeways connect
many of the islands with the two
biggest ones, upon when the
towns of Hamilton and st.
Georges are located.

the coral insect, which builds up
from the bottom of the ocean
and dies at the surface. Sand
and soil are washed upon these
reefs and eventually vegetation
appears. A resident of Bermuda
need dig down only a few feet
to come to the coral floor Of the
island. When he needs stone for
building purposes all he has to
do is to cut coral rock from his
own back yard. The coral rock
is so soft that it can be cut into
blocks with a saw. When it is
exposed to the air it hardens and
makes splendid building material
Nearly all the houses in Ber-
muda are built of coral and THEN
dazzling Wilderness and the white
ness of the coral roads contrast
brilliantly with the green of the
luxuriant tropical vegetation.
Since the stratum of soil on
Bermuda is so thin there are
few springs, rivers or lakes. For
tunately the islands are located
in a region of copious rains and
all the inhabitants catch the rain
fall in cisterns on their roofs
Thus they enjoy pure and
plentiful supply of water.

APPEAL TO HUGHES
TOSAVE MEXICAN
Embassy Officials Want Utah
Execution Delayed for
Further Proof.
BY the Associated Press.


SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Novem-
Der 1.-THE Mexican embassy has
appealed to Charles L. Hughes. Sec
retary of State. to intervene and save
the life of Pedro Cano, Mexican citi-
zen, sentenced to die here November
IA for the murder of June Claire at
Park City, near here. March Is. 1923,
it was learned yesterday upon receipt
of a telegram from Secretary Hughes
to Gov. Charles r. Mabey.
The telegram from Secretary
Hughes says:
THE Mexican embassy asserts that
there is good ground for believing
that Mrs. Refugio Alameda is guilty
of the crime and requests that time
be given to prove Cano innocent"
Gov. Mabey replied that the case
is now pending before the Supreme
Court and full opportunity will
doubtless be given for the presenta-
tion of evidence. The carrying out
of the sentence will be delayed until
the Supreme Court passes on q new
motion for a retrial, a stay of cxecu-
tion having been granted several
days ago.
