that not so long ago aroused the
ire of Indianapolis police.
Last March Chief R!khof issued
twelve commandments for public

The crowds are orderly; there is no

Dance halls visited and reported

SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.-Old
Sol may be turning the wheels Of
industry one of these days.
Marcel Moreau, San Franciscan,
has invented three machines OBJ
tanning their powe- from the sun 5
rays, which, he says, will:
Produce a temperature Of $1,000
degrees Fahrenheit.
Furnish power so long as the sun
shines.
Generate electricity and store it
in storage batteries.
Moreau has his three machines
completed and in operation. They
are nicely balanced combinations of
mirrors and magnifying glasses.
In his heat machine he has seen
diamonds bubble and disappear in
gaseous form. Carbon, which is
fluid at 61O degrees, has melted with
a fraction of the power his heat
machine developed. He believes he
can double the $4,000 degrees gen
Grated by his device by further ap-
plication of his principles.
While Moreau has many problems

when power plants operated by the
suns rays will be established in dis
tricts having high temperatures to
furnish power to entire groups of

Commission and Company
File Final DEGREES,

Proposed final DEGREES from the
public service commission and from
the Indiana Bell Telephone Com
pany are in the hands Of Federal
Judge George T. Page, Chicago, who
recently granted the company per-
manent injunction against the COM
mission, restraining it from putting
into effect it's order for telephone
rates and from interfering with the
rates asked by the company.
Judge Page will notify the parties
late this week as to whether hear
ing is necessary on the final decree.
The commissions decree differs
from that of the company in that
during litigation it prevents the COM
pany from charging rates higher
than those made a part of the tenn
porary injunction granted by three
Federal judges last summer and
which are now in force, and it al
lows the commission to fix rate
lower than that schedule if it deems
it advisable. II

GREATER EARNING
POWER IS RESULT
OF COLLEGE WORK
University Of Oregon Grad
yates Are Studied by
Educational Bureau,

EUGENE. Ore. June 1O.-A college
education increases earning capacity
from 50 to 200 per cent, in the
opinion Of alumni of the University
of Oregon, who We're asked TO COM.
ment on the value of their educa-
ton. Of 568 University Of Oregon
men reporting the amount Of their
incomes to the alumni office, 329 re-
ported incomes Of more than $4,000.
In some instances the income re.
.ported was as high as $4,000. but
the greatest number. about 40 per
cent Of the total, reported incomes
between $4,000 and $1,000. Most of
the graduates said that hey believed
their college education had increased
their earning power at least 100 per
cent.
These returns from our grad
yates bear out the assertions of the
United States Bureau Of Education
as 70 the value of college training"
said P. I. Campbell. president Of
of the university. Figures prepared
by the bureau in 1917 show that the
average earning Of grade school
graduates at the age OF 80, is $3.50, OF
high school graduates $3.50, of col
lege graduates S2150. Their inves-
legations show that during a life
time Of forty years college grad
Uate produces $4,000 more wealth
than does d high school graduate.
This means that. because Of higher
training, the college graduate is able
to produce $4,000 more in taxable
wealth for the State than is his less
educated brother. Education at the
State university thus yields to the
State in the lifetime of the student
taxable wealth more than forty
times as great as the cost of his ed
ucation.
In Oregon where natural re-
sources are practically unlimited
and depend for their development on
the intelligence and initiative and
skill Of the citizens. these figures
have special significance. Our whole

CAUSE OF FRUIT
WORKERS MALADY
IS INVESTIGATED
Oregon 'MedicS' to Extermi-
nate Disease Among
Canney Employees,

PORTLAND. Ore. June 10.-Re-
search workers at the University of
Oregon Medical School have sue
ceeded in discovering the cause of
so-called fruit poisoning, a disease
which attacks hundreds of workers
in the canneries and packing houses
of the Northwest during the fruit
packing season.
After six, months Of investigation,
DR.. Lyle Kingery, professor of der
matology, and DR.. c. H. Themes,
professor Of pharmacology, have iso-
lated the organism that produces the
disease and they are now on the way
to finding the most effective means
of checking and preventing the NAL
ady. DR.. Kingery will present the
results of their investigation before
the annual meeting of the American
Society of Dermatologists in Mime
apolis in July.
Fruit poisoning is a painful skin
infection which attacks workers who
pare and cut fruit in canneries.
Those who hull strawberries are also
liable to be infected. The disease
causes the presOns infected TO he
completely incapacitated for a month
or two and often results in loss Of
the finger nails. Before the in
vestigations of the University Of
Oregon men were made, the cause of
the disease was unknown. The in
fection causes large economic loss to
the fruit industry and its workers.
When sufferers from fruit poison
ing were brought TO Portland hos
pitals last year, DR.. Themes and
DR.. Kingery became interested in
discovering a cure for the disease,
which was then unclassifed by med
ical science. They made trips to
Oregon orchards and canneries and
studied cases of the poisoning, fin
ally isolating the organism which
caused the trouble. They are now
experimenting at the Medical School
to find the best means Of exterminat-
ing the organism from the human
body so that Caures na-r be effected

G. O. p. WOMEN FIGHT
FOR EQUAL RIGHTS
Play Tea Table Politics and Burn Midnight Oil at Ceve-
land Convention

Complete election of the rules com
mittee will not be made until late
Tuesday when the last of the State
delegations hold their meetings, but
the women are standing at the wall
today, satisfied that they have fixed
that all right.
For days, prominent Republican
women have been calling on State
delegations, teaing with Senators
and dining with Governors. Never
were tea table politics more poig-
nant. Chatter Of the power of the
woman's vote back home flowed with
small talk and music-but always it
flowed.
If tactics of this sort do not bring
the rules committee to a quick deci-
sion and women are still denied
equal representation on the National
committees they are prepared to
take the fight to the floor of the con-
vention.
Patronage, the women claim. is
the real cause for the opposition
they are getting from the men Of
their party. They are not willing
to share this right with the fair poll
tcian.
Bystanders at convention head
quarters would say. however, that
the men have bitten off more than
they can chew. For a stamp of the
foot from the vivacious Mrs. Medin
Mccormick, or the swapping eyes Of
Mrs Charles Sabin may not mean
much in family circles, but
The women are pinning their faith
on these, coupled with the inevitable
flow of taIk-think of the women s
votes back home.

in these sharp words:
Il would that l could say as much
for the courage Of all public men as
for their honesty. The public fancy
is sometimes caught by those who
are most vociferous and at the same
time most radically wrong. What is
most needed in legislative halls and
elsewhere is courage to withstand
the sudden spasms which are Gre
ated by groundless rumor or inju-
dicious agitation. Candidates for
office fail to realize how much the
people respect courage and common
honesty.
Taking cognizance Of "a tendency

Burton declared the effect is in
