William Ii. Anderson, leader of the
Anti Saloon League in America, has
been sentenced to from l to 3 years
in Sing Sing prison following his con-
viction on a charge Of forgery. He
has been admitted to liberty in $4,000
bail pending application for eeftiti-
cate of reasonable doubt.
Judge Tompkins, in passing SEN
tence, called attention to the incon-
sistency of Andersons testimony de-
claring that "if the affidavit Ander-
son presented to the board Of directors
of the Anti Saloon League explaining
the source of $24,700 publicity fund
was true, then the statements he made
in explanation were untrue"
Much doubt has been expressed by
Temperance people throughout the
country regarding the sincerity of
those who made the charges against
Anderson. From the start Of proceed
ings prohibitionists have given Ander-
son a clean bill of honesty, integrity
and loyalty to the Temperance cause.
So certain have they been of the Anti
Saloon League leaders innocence that
they have not hesitated to denounce
the action against him as fraud per-
petrated for the sole purpose of Great
ing sentiment against the Eighteenth
amendment.
Temperance people on the whole
know the caliber of their opponents.
They know that there has never been
a greater corrupting influence in
America than the saloon, the brewery
and distillery. Consequently they may
be excused for still believing in
William II. Anderson, even though
the court has found him guilty.

that are tabooed by Mr.. Volstead and
many Of his contemporaries. While
on the other hand the people Of more
conservative habits, who are content
with buttermilk and tea, are determ-
med to cram the Volstead act down
the threats of the thirsty. The result
is what might be expected in a war
between camels and FISH.
At any rate Union Labor may con
tent itself in the knowledge that all
rioting and bloodshed cannot be laid
To so good a cause. Evidently Mr.
Volstead is not entirely to blame.
Some dispositions cannot talk about
heaven without quauelng.

The determination of everybody to
rule everybody else in Williamson
county has developed a lively row
which may eliminate in a small civil
war unless pressure can be brought to
bear upon both factions to teach them
to be patient.
Troops have been called for the
third time either to put down the riot
ing or to prevent rioting. Saturday
evening a company of National
Guards went from Champaign to the
scene of the trouble. How long they
will be required to remain depends
upon the willingness or unwillingness
of the Williamson county populace to
yield to persuasion.
The situation just now is interest
ing to Union men in view of the fact
that Labor now seems indicated of
the charge Of murder" laid at its
door as a result of what the metropoli-
tan press has termed "The Herrin
Massacre"
Through recent disturbances in
Williamson county, in which Labor has
had no part, more blood has been shed
and other lives sacrificed, showing
that the disposition of that community
is such that no question can be set
tied by them without trouble.
Without doubt both factions are to
blame for the present rioting and
bloodshed. A few people of alien
blood have sought to follow their ma
tive training and indulge in beverages

SPLIT
Friends Wonder Why Husband
OF Former Mrs. Caruso
Disliked Them
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.


NEW YORK, May Friends Of
Mrs. Dorothy Benjamin Caruso In
gram, whose second international
marriage has not proved as sue.
ceSsful as her first, were amazed
today to learn one of the reasons
for their separation was Captain
Migrants dislike of. if not objection
to, his wife's friends.
Why the British captain, whom
the widow of the worlds greatest
tenor married abroad should object
to any Of Mrs. Migrants friends is
beyond understanding of many lisr-
ed in Americas blue book. Mrs.
Caruso-Ingram numbered among
her friends some of the staunchest
members of New York's 400, while
her associates at Palm Beach were
among the social elect.
It was at the fashionable winter
resort that Captain Ingram first
became acquainted with some Of
Mrs. Ingram's American associates,
he having previously met, in Paris
and on the Riviera, the italian,
French and English friends of his
wife. What he did not like about
American society on it's native
heath is not known, but what he
said so inflamed Mrs. Ingram that
she decided to battle for them
even if she lost husband.
Among Mrs. Migrants friends
are: Mrs. Adrian Iselin. Mrs. Charles
Doffer, Mrs. Irma Hopper, Mrs.
Ogden Mills, Janet Reecher. 'Jrs

Sunday School Valnps
Increase Church's
Collections.

GEORGETOWN, DEL, May
2.-Vamping men into going to
church and putting large sums
of money into the collection
plates has proved a success at
the First Methodist, Protestant
Church here.
The idea of having. young and
pretty girls act as ushers and
passers of the collection plate
originated with the Rev. John
T. Bailey, pastor of the church.
1t will be tried out for the
second time next Sunday. 1t
worked so well last Sunday that
the Rev. Mr.. Bailey said the
girls for part4Of the time will
do the work done thirty-two
years by men and boys alone.
If it works better next Sunday
the males are expected to be
asked to give up the work en-
tirely.
Attendance at the church last
Sunday, when four of the best
looking girls in the Sunday
School acted as ushers, was
said to have virtually doubled.

that the captain chose his honey

NO TROOPS ARE SENT
Governor Tells Sheriff of the
County Situation Is
Up To Him

Lone Pine, Inyo county, Califor-
MIA, Nov. 18.-(By the A. P)--Owens
Valleys little "army Of occupation"
was still in undisputed possession of
the Los Angeles Acqueduct today,
two days after it's sudden capture Of
the Alabama waste gate, north of
here, and no one had yet made any
effort forcibly TO eject the invaders
or to close the gates through which
they are causing the water Of the
Acqueduct to 60 to waste.
The approximately 100 men who
constitute the army took turns stand
ing guard all night and their search
light swept back and forth over the
hills increasingly, alert to reveal
the approach of the "enemy" but no
hostile force appeared, and a state
ment issued in Los Angeles by May
or Cryer last night made it clear that
none was likely to appear from that
direction.
II feel confident" said the mayor.

county, supplemented if necessary by

graphed to Governor Friend W.

The raiding party of farmers. and
citizens. including clergymen, lawy.
d, ers, physicians and business men OF
the valley, today were making them
selves fairly comfortable in camp
and were preparing to "stay on the
job until il is finished or until the
militia comes. Housed in tents and
provided with bedding shipped il,

without its field kitchens, presided
over in pioneer fashion by the
daughters and wives Of the raiders.

LOCAL METHOD
OF CHILD WORK
GIVEN PRAISE
Burleigh County Idea May be
Extended in State, Miss
Lund Finds
FINANCIAL SAVING
Says That Work Under Miss
Cashel Has Proved Saw
ing to County

Creation of county welfare boards
and development of other methods OF
cooperation in child welfare work arc
expected to follow a week spent in
the state by DR.. G. {. Carstens of
New York, director of the Child Vel
fare League of America, Miss Hen
rietta Lund, director Of the Chill
dren's Bureau of the State Board of
Administration, said today.
DR.. Castens and Miss Lund, in sew
eral meetings, endeavored to develop
better stands of child welfare work.
Conferences OF various kinds were
conducted in Crank Forks, Fargo and
Mandan, and Minnesota child welfare
officials were met in Bismarck. Coun-
ty welfare boards were organized in
Grand Forks and Burleigh counties,
and plans made for development of
these boards in other counties.
Extension of the Burleigh county
plan Of child welfare work is seen
by Miss Lund, as Il result of the sue
cess of the plan under the direction
OF Miss Mary Cashcl Of Bismarck.
Burleigh county, over period of
four years, has furnished demon
stration that constructive social
work not only gives better service TO
the unfortunatcs but is a financial
saving to the county, Miss Lund said
Burleigh county, she added, is the
only county that has, over period
Of years, engaged trained social
service worker. The ability of Miss
Cashel has had much to do with the
unusual record, she said, adding that
Miss Cashel's description Of the Bur-
leigh county plan at the Grand Forks
social service conference was fol-
lowed with great interest.
The Burleigh county child welfare
board organized while DR.. Carstens
was here has for it's chairman Mrs.
H. c. Postlethwaite and for its Sc.
cretary, Miss Mary Cashel. Mrs. A.
NJ. Brandt, Miss Madge Runey, and
DR.. Il. S. Towne are members, and
other members from the county, out

Along These Lines

Commission Will Go Over
Various Measures Now
Pending in Congress
TO STUDY MEASURES

Washington, Nov. lS.-The COM
mission recently appointed to make
a comprehensive analysis and report
on farm problems with "A view to ar
riving at Il program for the pcrman-
ent stabilization Of agriculture, de-
cided at its initial meeting to pro-
ceed along three lines, namely. the
study of pending farm legislation,
inquiry into the administration Of
present laws, and plans for inculcat
ing in the farmer an appreciation Of
the value OF cooperation.
Eight OF the nine members Of the
commission, comprising leaders in
farm life from every agricultural
section of The country, called at the
White House before entering execu-
tive session at the department Of
agriculture, and were welcomed by
Mr.. Coolidge. The president address
cd the members briefly, but his re-
marks were not made public. II is
understood, however, that he made no
recommendations, instead placing
the problems entirely up to the COM
mission for examination and recon-
mendation, and at the same time
giving assurance that the inquiry
need not be limited in scope and that
the commission will have at all times
the cooperation of all government
departments.
Coolidge Outlines Hopes
Mr.. Coolidge, in discussing the
agricultural situation as it stands to-
day, is understood to have followed
in general the subject as outlined by
him in public address last week
before the association OF land grant
colleges.
ut is very evident" said a state
ment issued later at the agriculture
department based on comments Of
the commissioners, "that the presi-
dent had 4 thorough knowledge Of
the agricultural situation, and was
sincere in his efforts that something
should be done to bring about better
conditions in agriculture and better
balance between agriculture and
other industries"
Proposed legislation expected to
come under the commissions study.
it was believed, includes the McNary-
Haugen export corporation bill, the
Norris-Sinclair bill and the Capper-
Williams and Curtis Aswell measures
all either awaiting consideration at
the coming short session Of congress.
or in the course of completion in
committees. Consideration of these
and any other measures that may be
proposed later is expected to be given
with the hope Of correlating or ELI
minating Objectionable features and
arriving at a plan which will suit
all interested parties.
Present farm laws will be gone
over, it was said, for the purpose Of
determining whether they are being
properly enforced or are grouped un-
der the proper department or bureau
and whether it would be advisable
to transfer responsibility for the ad-
ministration.

President Coolidge has said must be
conducted along scientific lines if he
is to meet the conditions Of the fu-
