Washington, Feb. o-1n urging a national reclamation program, Con- gressman Bankhead reminded his col leagues that Go per cent. of the American people do not own their homes.
 Do you know that oo,ooo,o 900 men, women and children of Americas pop ulation today do not even own the roof over .heir head?" asked the law maker They are renters, drifters, boarders and people who do not pos sess real estate on which they live"
 MT. Bankhead said that down in the great southern country there IS more than 10000, ,ooo' acres of land covered by water, which, if drained, would make this land fertile. The speaker predicted a population of I4o,ooo, ,ooo in this country within the next 20 years.
 There is left only one vast domain of utilizable land for future expan- sion of agricultural products, and that consists of the arid and seml-arld lands in the western states and the swamp, overfowed and cut-over lands of the southern states, and some sec tions in the lake states and New Eng land"

WIRE COOLIDGE TO
 ORDER INSPECTORS
 OFF PENNSYLVANIA
Assert Defective Locomotives Being Condemned Wholesale and
 Taken Out of Service.

Defective locomotives on the Penn- sy1vania system continue to give oper- ating O cials of the company lot of trouble Last week Interstate Com 1nerce Commission inspectors ill one day ordered ten engines out of service on the Indiana division of that road, which resulted in practically closin gdown the coal mines in the Bicknell district, near Vincennes.
 w. C. Downing, superintendent of the Indiana division of the Pennsylvania appealed to the Associated Employers of Indianapolis, combination of big business interests, and the chamber of commerce, to use their influence" with the powers at Washington to have the inspectors called off As result tele- grams, began pouring into Washington addressed to President Coolidge, Sen ators Ra1ston and Watson, and the Con- gressmen from that state, and to the Interstate Commerce Commission, pro- testing against the wholesale condem- nation of Pennsylvania locomotives"
 So far as LABOR can ascertain, no order has gone forth directing the in spectors to cease and desist in per form ing the duty assigned them by the com mission-that of protecting employees travellers, and shippers from the increas- ing dangers resulting from the opera ton of deficient equipment
 The Interstate Commerce Commission replied to the Chamber of Commerce of Indianapolis that the matter would again be taken up with the Pennsylvania Rail- road officials ill an effort to have proper and safe locomotives placed on the In diana division.
 The following telegram was received by Senators Ralston and Watson and Commissioner Lewis of the I. C. C.. from John B. Reynolds, general secre- tary of the Indianapolis Chamber oi Commerce, which gives testimony of the deplorable condition of Pennsylvania To- co1notives:
 Indiana industry being very adverse ly effected by wholesale condemnation of Pennsylvania. engine equipment, coa mines at Bicknell and many other point: being closed and industry dependen . thereon hampered. Freight service gen orally dernoralized. Inspectors using au

thority in most high-handed manner and without apparent though or care as to damage being done.
 At Bicknell engines reported condem- ned yesterday after miners taken to work leaving men five miles from home without transportation. Engines repair ed and placed in service. Miners again taken to mines and again all engines condemned after repair.
 Do your records indicate Pennsylva nia engine equipment in our coal sec ton practically 100 per cent. defective and other roads equipment practically 100 per cent effective, as these experi- ences would show?
 Cant inspectors use common sense and lay up part of equipment while bal ance is being made to suit their require nents, giving industry at least fighting chance to carry on? Your immediate attention to this serious situation will be appreciated deeply"
 w. M. Teller, Jr, secretary-treasurer
  CTS of the mines in the Bicknell district, wired the l. (. C. as follows
 "All our mines are idle today as the result of the pernicious activity of the government inspectors. We know of no other coal carrying railroads that are being hampered in this manner. Surely, the equipment of the Pennsylvania can not be 100 per cent, unsafe and all the other railroads i'll the United States safe. It is imperative that something drastic be done to stop unwarranted interference with the transportation conditions on the Pennsylvania Railroad"
 The Associated Employers of Indian apolis sent the following tlegram to President Coolidge and Senators Ralston and Watson:
 On behalf of manufacturers and other shippers and public utilities in this territory, we strongly protest against continued wholesale condemnation and withdrawal from service of locomotives and equipment on Pennsylvania lines in indiana
 We urge that government inspectors 5e instructed to cease wholesale and sim ultaneous withdrawals of passenger, freight, and switching engines from ser- vice
 If the condemned rail equipment IS seriously faulty, sufficient engines should at least be left in service to carry on commerce and afford the railroad oppor- tunity to make repairs while continuing transportation service"
 The bad state Of Pennsylvania loco motives on the Indiana division is not exceptional, as similar conditions prevail on all parts of the system, due to inef- ficient workrnen in the shops.

KINGS HOUSEHOLD
 NOW SONS OF TOLL
Appointment of Trade Union:sts to Palace Jobs More in Name
 Than in Fact.

London, Feb. o-The appointment of three 100 per cent trade union Laborites to positions in the King household has caused considerable amusement here. However, the titu- lar entrance of horny handed sons of toll into the Royal Palace is much more in name than fact.
 Tom Grifiths as treasurer of the kings household, J. A. Parkinson as comptroller of the kings household, and J. E. Davison as vice chamber lain are not likely to have any per sonal contact with his majesty, King George V, except upon a few cere- monial occasions, such as the king fLords. 9
 Premier Macdonald, with full con sideration for the kings personal i'm clinations, Is not making any changes in the officials who handle his "privy purse" his equerries and lords in waiting.
 But the bestowal of even these ceremonial household appointments has given the country another em- phatic notification of the change in the basic character of the British government. Griffiths, Labor whip since 1918, went to work as half timer at eight cents a day. For a short time he attended Ruskin Col lege, Oxford, working his way and supporting himself, his wife and chill dren on $I2.5o a week.
 Parkinson has been an M. P: from Wigan since 1918. He began work as half-timer in coal mine when he was eight and went on full time when 12 Altogether he worked 25 years in mines.
 Davison, who also has been in the Commons since 1918, began work in shoe shop and later became foun- dryman, working as such for 2I years All three men obtained high positions in their respective unions.

Senator William E. Borah, who is publicly recognized by the Russian s5olsnevlsts or Communists as lead ing friend of the pro-Soviet propa- ganda in this country, opened the new est campaign in the United States Senate, preliminary to the hearings now under way, with a speech Tn support of Soviet recognition. > Tn this speech Borah shows him self antagonistic to the position of the American Federation of Labor q. eve.y po4nt. Parallel columns will demonstrate.
 The quotations are from Borah's speech of January from the last A. F. of L. convention resolution on tn subject (1e22).
 We have in this country less than 4,OOo Communists. Certainly the propaganda is not having any effect in this country.
 I do not believe, so far as the So- viet Government itself is concerned, that it has fathered any part of this propaganda since the declaration ot MT. Lenin with reference to the new economic policy in the spring of 1921 The whole theory was changed, the whole policy was changed.
 Whatever individuals or irrespon- sible parties may have done, 1 can not give my consent upon any evidence which has been adduced thus far, to believe that the Soviet Government itself has inaugurated, initiated, sus- tained, or maintained or encouraged any such proceedings, i. e.. fathered any such propaganda.
 Whenever the test has come 1t has
