KHAN FIGHT SEEN
AS MENACE TO
VICTORY IN FALL
AntagoniSm Is Splitting Me-
Adoo Convention Ranks,
Senator Says,
BY SENATOR c. c. DILL

(Coppright. 1921, BIZ United Press)
UNITED PRESS HEADQUAR-
TIERS, WALDORF, HOTEL. NEW
YORK, June 26.-George Brennan is
said to have started a Khan fight to
destroy McAdoo, but it has gotten
away from him.
The Khan demonstration in the
convention Wednesday showed that
the Khan fight is likely to destroy
Democratic victory in November.
Before the convention met, Bren-
nan dared the -McAdoo leaders to
abolish the two-thirds rule. At first
they declared they would. but it
shook the McAdOo organization to
its foundation and the issue was
suddenly dropped.
Neither Brennan nor any one else
can stop the Kan fight now.
Spreads Like Fire
It is running through McAdoo ter
ritory like a prairie fire and some
McAdoo delegates are more bitter
at each other over the Kan issue
than they are over the difference as
to the candidtes.
The demonstration for Senator
Thomas J. Walsh of Montana showed
that the delegates know the oil scan
cal revelations are the weakest point
in the Republican lines. That thought
kills the enthusiasm of all doubtful
McAdoo delegates and galvanizes the
opposition to him on every side.
The suppression of State stand
ards which passed the speakers
stand when Walsh was presented to
the convention was simply a spOn-
taneous expression of the delegates
appreciation of what Walsh has done
for party victory in November.
That demonstration was good for
the party. 1t showed that Demo
Gratis appreciate services well per
formed. E.
The Khan demonstration was en-
tirely different. It was passionate
and bitter and filed with portentous
dangers for the future. When the
McAdoo State delegations refused to
join, probabilities of his nomination
grew less than ever and his chances
of election, even if nominated, seem
not to have vanished completely.
Fight Splitting Party
The truth is that this Klan fight is
splitting the party from one end of
the country to the other. If the plat
form mentions the Klan by name it
will ALLEVIATE hundreds Of thousands
Of Klansmen. If it contains only
a general statement without men
tioning the Klan and Smith is not
nominated, the Catholics will prob
ably not support the ticket. That
would mean the loss Of every State
north of the Ohio and east of the
Mississippi River to the Democrats.
At Cleveland the Republicans
made votes for La Toilette on an
independent ticket by continually at
lacking him because of the progress
sive measures he advocates. Here
the stars themselves seem to be
fighting for him by splitting the
Democrats. 1t is already time for
the Democrats to begin work on the
selection of a candidate for Vice
President who will be able to secure

thing to have a speaking acquaint-
anc today.
To-day We are interested primarily
with nature and the application OF
natural forces to the solution Of our
problems. There is where modern
education differs from the old educa-
tional systems"
President Atkinson then touched
upon the question of leadership, re-
marking that leadership comes from
where it will" He showed how
those who were greatly alarmed over
the fact that the so-called leaders of
today would not be replaced by those
from the higher strata of American
society, had no cause for alarm sim
ply on account of the fact that we
secured our leaders anywhere they
happened to appear.

SENIORS APPEAR IN
CAPS And GOWNS
Differences Between The Cap
Gown of Former Days And
Now Explained

People will not simply step aside
for you when you leave college sim
ply because you have worn the cap
and gown President Atkinson told
the seniors at their first appearance
in cap and gown Friday morning.
"You must demonstrate TO the world
that you are a leader before you can
exepect people to step aside and let
you take the lead"
"The cap and gown simply signi-
fes that you have the equipment
where you can do better than others,
You are living in the past when You
set yourself aside simply because you
have graduated from college"
He showed in his talk how the
first robes were worn by the Grerian
students to set them off from the
citizens. Then the narrative was con-
tinued to the present European uni
versities where cap and gowns were
required for entrance into classes.
"The Greeks conceived the first

@. Small branches on my poplar
trees are dying and dead areas are
appearing on the trunks and larger
limbs-will the tress die?
A. No doubt your trees are affect
ed by what is known as poplar canker
and if the disease has progressed con-
siderably the trees will probably die.
Small areas may be carefully cut out
and the exposed parts painted with
creosote, white lead, grating wax, etc.
to prevent spread of the infection
Since weak trees are mor easily and
seriously affected, trees should be
kept growing vigorously. Infected
areas may be painted with any of the
above mentioned substances to pre-
vent escape of spores. All bruised
and cut surfaces should be protected
in the same way.

that the "going to seed habit of eel
cry is brought on by low temperatures,
either in the field or in the hotbed.
Where temperatures were maintained
between Sc and Is degrees no prema-
ture seeding resulted; a range between
55 and 65 degrees produced three per
cent seeding and where the tempera-
ture dropped below 80 degrees the
greater part of the plants turned to
seed. If the celery plants are start.
ed in a greenhouse or hotbed where
the temperature has been kept above
65 degrees and if the plants are not
set out into the field until warm con-
ditions prevail there should be no pre-
mature seeding. 1t is not likely that
one or two short exposures to low
temperatures will cause seeding but
prolonged exposure will do so, accord
ing to the results of the experiment.

q Q. Is there any way of getting rid
of ants in lawns?
A. Sodium fiouride, sprinkled around
and in the ant holes is about the best
of control. The powder sticks
to the feet of the ants, is carried into
their holes, licked off and fed to the
larvae. Under moist conditions the
treatment is not effective and there
fore it is necessary to wait until the
soil is dry before applying the poison.
A lawn to be treated should not be
~sprinkled for at least a week and
should be left dry for three OF four
days after spreading the powder. As
there are several grades of sodium
fouride, the finest grade available is
the most desirable.
